*Sigh.. Another "Chin-down, Eyes up" cover. Will developers at least try to come up with better covers

IAMERROR3976d ago

I really liked the placeholder art :/
What happened?

PLASTICA-MAN3976d ago (Edited 3976d ago )

A cover already? SO it means 100% it is a launch game.

Edit: WTH? The character looks completely retarded and ugly with his head bigger than his body like a bobblehead. I hope the game will be good and won't be how the box art reflects it.

r213976d ago

Woah, that looks good. Why'd they change it to generic guy in the cover with a gun thing :L

nveenio3976d ago

Am I the only person that doesn't get all hissy about cover art? They should be designed to attract the eye among a bunch of other covers. The only way a cover is bad is if it doesn't do this. I honestly don't care about much else, but I'm probably the minority.

JokesOnYou3976d ago (Edited 3976d ago )

lol, [Alarm goes off in the background] "this just in, we got another problem, they dont like the boxart, nah really, I thought they would love it."

cyclindk3976d ago

Hmm, simple and intriguing. Perhaps a bit visually underwhelming when you consider what we are all used to, but very effective.

Reminiscent of the Heavy Rain origami motif.

Shadow Flare3976d ago

Quantum Break - Season One

MoveTheGlow3976d ago (Edited 3976d ago )

To all the "Why did they change the cover to some guy with a gun?" people:

Ask Ken Levine.

Apparently it is opposite "early dev"

which tells me MS dont have to much to show and have to pull games that are still far from being finished.

Blackdeath_6633976d ago (Edited 3976d ago )

getting bored of that too. i don't think box art will be as relevant on xbox one considering you have to install all your games on the 500GB HDD. on pc box art is non-existent as most games are digital unless you buy limited edition of the game but even then you get a code so you can install it online.

off topic: they released the cover art but have yet to explain what the game even is. a girl touching a woman's ear and then a ship crashing into a bridge explains jack sh!t. really hard to get people excited about this game when you don't show them anything

loulou3976d ago

but if this was a sony game, you would be going mad

MoveTheGlow3976d ago

OMG, when they mentioned Legend of the Guardians I cracked up. Thanks for that!

fermcr3976d ago

It's not that bad. I like the cover. Let's hope the game is good. Reminds me a bit of the movie Jumper (a teenager with teleportation abilities).

turgore3976d ago

That was such a bad movie. SUCH A BAD movie.

Conzul3976d ago (Edited 3976d ago )

I was gonna say - it looks like that movie "Push"

Edit: It looks like the warping ability will directly combat Delsin's smoke dash ability.

THE FIRST SHOTS HAVE BEEN FIRED!!!

stage883976d ago

Agreed. Horribly generic.

And also the green xbone cases clash with every box art except green ones. Disgusting looking all round.

AngelicIceDiamond3976d ago

Because you by the game to look at the cover for 6 to 8 hours...

@Stage Just another lost Sony troll bashing EVERYTHING Xbox like always and contributes nothing but crap.

Go home stage, just go.

GameCents3976d ago

Now we are just nitpicking. That cover actually looks good.
We all have our biases and they are showing.

andibandit3976d ago (Edited 3976d ago )

I could not agree more....in a month that has brought nothing but aggravating news, i couldn't care less if the game shipped with a picture of a turd on it.

andrewsqual3976d ago

Hmm this originally came from Remedy's official website which alot of people seem to be missing.
http://remedygames.com/
Upon going to their website I just realised that even they are disabling comments.

Persistantthug3976d ago

Are QUANTIC DREAM and Remedy Entertainment good friends?

jmartin3213976d ago

If you think Margaret`s story is unbelievable,, five weeks ago my sis basically made the small fortune of $5442 sitting there fifteen hours a week from there house and their roomate's step-aunt`s neighbour done this for five months and earned more than $5442 in there spare time at their computer. apply the information here, kep2.com

joe903976d ago

If Quantum Break was a PS4 exclusive the Cover Art would be totally kick ass though right?

The game will be good regardless of the cover as Remedy know how to make games,

Flames763975d ago

That's what puts Xbox owners apart from the PS3 fanboys.Xbox owners talk about Xbox games and playing their Xbox games.Sony fanboys are more worried about going to Xbox forums and putting down Xbox games.My guess is they have nothing to play i don't know?That's the main reason i got rid of my PS3 to many kiddies.I dont have time for 12 year old crap.Everyone i play games with on the Xbox is in their 20s,30s,and even 40s

LackTrue4K3975d ago

hours latter, game gets pushed back!!!
lol...i guess all the rumors about Microsoft being 6 months behind are holding up to be true!!

MajorLazer3975d ago

It's only a cover art. Stop nitpicking every little thing!

sashimi3976d ago

That green...ruins the already boring cover

PigPen3976d ago

That's one, where's the other 14 exclusives.

Skips3976d ago (Edited 3976d ago )

Well 7 are from already existing IP's like Halo, Gears, Fable, Forza, Crack Down, Alan Wake, Killer Instinct, Banjo-Kazooie, Perfect Dark, Viva Pinata???

As for the eight new IP's...

Quantum Break
Ryse
FPS from Black Tusk studio
Whatever the hell these two are http://www.eurogamer.net/ar...
Kinect One
Kinect Fitness

That just leaves 3...

MegaSackman3976d ago

well, RARE will need an army of devs to launch all those games in one year.

GusBricker3976d ago (Edited 3976d ago )

Hopefully Rare is making a platformer.

MoveTheGlow3976d ago (Edited 3976d ago )

Kinect One's just the name of the camera, methinks. That doesn't mean we won't see more Kinect silliness, but I don't think we'll get a game called Kinect One.

Are we sure about Gears? Isn't Epic moving on to some new franchise... no... probably not... probably more Gears retreading.

LOL @ Perfect Dark! Do you think Rare's been endowed with the lion's share of MS staff to reboot four freaking titles? That's to say nothing of their probable involvement in whatever Kinect Sports thing crawls onto the E3 stage.

I know one thing: If there's Viva Pinata, it'll be all Kinect. I don't know how Rare reboots Killer Instinct after NetherRealm knocked Mortal Kombat out of the park, but hey, it'll be interesting if they do.

first1NFANTRY3976d ago

that's one ugly cover. the green makes it look like a Dora The Explorer dvd you would buy for your kids lol.

rainslacker3976d ago

This game actually caught my interest at the conference...mostly because it's Remedy, but still. This cover is about as generic as they come. It's like saying "this is shooter #1343". Oh well. If it's a launch title people buying the system will know about it. Hope the game play and story are interesting.

15 Xbox Games That Should Make the Multiplatform Jump

While there’s likely already a list behind closed doors, one can still speculate and offer logical suggestions for titles new and old that should find their way into the PlayStation and Switch libraries.

GamerRN33d ago

Single A games and live service games. Those make sense

S2Killinit33d ago

None of it makes sense. But its happening.

Ps5conehead32d ago

That’s up to Microsoft they want return on there investment. From buying up those publishers. That’s what there in business for. And they made a mistake putting day one exclusive on game pass. So now Microsoft wants to profit any way they can.its called buisness . Just like Sony putting games on pc a year are two after ps5 launch.
So if they can make money off PlayStation and Nintendo. They will do that. And I bet soon real soon they will release some aaa exclusives .and I bet one day it will be same day release

TheEroica32d ago

Sony gamers begging for Xbox games.... Who would've thunk it?

BISHOP-BRASIL32d ago

Yeah, because random site off the internet represents all Sony gamers, they have the letter of attorney and all...

S2Killinit32d ago

Lol what a spin. You dizzy?

AsunaYuukiTheFlash32d ago (Edited 32d ago )

We don’t care about shovelwares. Get that junk out of PS5

StormSnooper32d ago

More like MS begging to put their games on PlayStation.

TheEroica31d ago

Keep begging Sony gamers!

Friendlygamer33d ago

Some of these seem to be exclusive for lack of enthusiasm of the publisher rather than because of deals. A lot of cool indies skip ps for some reason like katana zero, el paso, elsewhere and gunbrela

S2Killinit33d ago

Even more indies skip xbox. We know that right?

Friendlygamer33d ago

Quality over quantity, Microsoft got some really interesting and curated niche games on their machines, maybe in part because of gamepass

S2Killinit32d ago

Quality and MS are not things you bring up in same sentence.

shinoff218332d ago (Edited 32d ago )

Alot of indies skip xbox to. It goes round and round. Personally I think your off base on that but no need to have the argument.

Friendlygamer32d ago

Between katana zero, valheim, Battletech, el passo... I don't feel off base. maybe ps got a million of light novel games that will never release on Xbox but like I've said, I'm talking about niche games highlights, the 10%.

  Heck, it's probably thanks to Microsoft that the s.t.a.l.k.e.r games came to console ps included, meanwhile Sony backwards compatibility continues to be extremely anemic.

And I'm sure most ps5 users are happy to ignore these games and just play wathever new 3rd person action game is trending but it's cool that Microsoft gives some love to smaller audiences and software preservation

shinoff218332d ago

Again your off base just to be snide. All it's showing though is your ignorance.

One light novels wtf is that even. Ps has plenty of pretty damn good indies.

Speaking of indies and ms being responsible. You know F.I.S.T. of course you do alot of you guys just support gamepass. Well here's a history of Sony being responsible for helping indies. Look up the China project from Sony.

Lastly lol your ignorance showing again. Sony has plenty of games. Personally third person is better then first anyway but that's besides the point. Sony gets so many games that xbox doesn't get because yall don't support the games. Jrpgs being a great example. I personally am not into every Sony first party game. Alot of us aren't. On the other side you don't get to eat often so you gobble up everything. Me personally God of War not my cup, etc. For me I'm into jrpgs and ms just can't touch Sony on those. Again because the Xbox base doesn't support it. Devs dont wanna waste their time or money. Hit me up when falcom develops a game over there.

Speaking of third person narrative games. Aren't yall drooling over hellblade 2. The first one was Sony exclusive at one point. Another not my cup game. Showing we don't have to fall in line and agree we love everything Sony puts out. The facts are they sell though unlike elsewhere(not nintendo)

StormSnooper32d ago

You are same person as GamerRN, yes?

Abnor_Mal33d ago

They really think PlayStation fans would want to play Redfall? Pfft.

Personally nothing on that list would be any game I’d want to play.

TwoPicklesGood33d ago

I’d absolutely love Hellblade 2, Palworld, and Quantum Break on ps5 as I’m sure tons of others would too. There’s nothing wrong with wanting games from another console and its sad that people try to act like they aren’t interested in them.

shinoff218332d ago

While indont agree with the games. I agree with the point. Your not wrong.

DarXyde33d ago

Sunset Overdrive makes very good sense. Palworld might.

Don't know about the others. Hellblade II does make sense given the original launched on PS4 first. Quantum Break was a massive letdown for me. I absolutely hated the whole TV show thing and I don't think anyone should have to relive that on modern hardware.

Now that Remedy owns Control, it’s time to reclaim Quantum Break

Alan Wake 2 studio Remedy Entertainment has reclaimed the rights to Control, and now sci-fi hit Quantum Break deserves the same treatment.

Petebloodyonion49d ago

Totally agree with that especially when Quantum Break has several references to Alan Wake and Alan Wake make allusions to QB.
I do believe that MS and Remedy can work things out and MS has usually been nice to devs and publishers regarding IP.

Obscure_Observer48d ago

They can't "reclaim" what was never theirs.

Petebloodyonion48d ago

I’m sure we can settle for purchase from MS the IP.

Lightning7748d ago

MS is not doin anything with it. Plus they're doing a multiverse of their own so Remedy needs the IP.

If MS wants to have exclusive let it be timed for 6 months then go to other platforms. MS seems to be, let's say, generous with some if their games as of late.

Or have QB2 be multiplat from the jump, put it on GP. Keeping QB2 as an exclusive is kinda weird these days.

Obscure_Observer48d ago (Edited 48d ago )

@Petebloodyonion

"I’m sure we can settle for purchase from MS the IP."

Good luck

@Lightning77

"MS is not doin anything with it."

Japan Studio is dead nd Sony isn´t doing anything with Bloodborne either! Yet I can 100% guarantee that there´s a far bigger demand for a sequel, remake or even a remaster for that game from both PS5 and PC gamers.

That been said, why don´t you ask Sony tol sell the IP to Fromsoftware now that according to rumors, they bought Elden Ring from Bandai?

ZwVw48d ago (Edited 48d ago )

Reclaim? That would mean that they actually owned the ip at one point, which they never did (MS always has). Apples & oranges. Remedy always owned the Control ip (just not the publishing), as they have with Alan Wake.

About as likely as them getting the Max Payne rights from Rockstar.

mastershredder48d ago (Edited 48d ago )

Sending you game to a publisher does not mean they get "rights to own it " unless that was part of the contract (monetary/ strategic reasons). 505 was the publisher they worked with to publish and distribute it, it dos not mean that 505 flat out "owned" anything, clearly they did have a special arrangement that made them open to limit their publishing rights. and so here we are and big whoop

Jingsing48d ago (Edited 48d ago )

Yeah get Quantum Break PS5, only if you put it on disc with all the associated movie material.

isarai48d ago

I mean they got the Alan Wake IP back from MS, so I feel like they could get QB back as well

15 Games That Like to Play With Your Mind

GB: "Some games reduce stress while others like to play with your mind."

banger88346d ago

15 games on FIFTEEN pages? That's a NO from me.

Superliminal
Antichamber
Manifold Garden
Portal & Portal 2
The Stanley Parable
Monument Valley
Gorogoa
Thumper
Inscryption
Q.U.B.E. 2
Darq
Quantum Break
Perspective
Inside
The Swapper

IamTylerDurden1346d ago (Edited 346d ago )

I think Inscryption is the best game on that list. PT and Returnal i would offer. Returnal deserves a spot over some of the listed games. Especially after chapter 3. Maybe even Alice MR? Death Stranding? Kojima all together. To much smaller degree Dead Space. I'm spitballing.

I didn't play Thumper enough to see beyond the visual spectacle. Curious choice.

SullysCigar345d ago (Edited 345d ago )

I'd add FEAR and RE7 (when Ethan starts getting visions, especially in the boat) to that list.

Edit: and Here They Lie

Petebloodyonion345d ago

What no Eternal Darkness on the list?

BrainSyphoned344d ago

Only makes me think of gatcha loot crate game specifically built to play your mind into becoming an addict.
