Looking forward to the reboot of Thief? You shouldn’t be; amid horror stories concerning the game’s development, Eidos Montreal, the studio developing the game, just saw their General Manager, Stephane D’Astous, resign.
Stealth games as a genre starting picking up pace in the late 90s and early 2000s, but today the genre seems to be fading away. Games where the primary focus is avoiding direct conflict can be a tense and thrilling experience, so where do we need to go to find it?
Would love a new splinter cell with ironside again. Back it its roots. And SegaGamer said styx. It's the closest thing to old school splinter cell.
I also hate the streamlined stealth in games now where simply crouching in tall grass hides you from an enemy that is two feet from you. The true stealth genre needs to come back and I'd love to see Splinter Cell make its comeback as well as a proper Thief game.
Stealth is a genre that needs some more love. Here is a guided rant about issues that it's had so far and why Metal Gear Solid is the only game that really accomplishes what it sets out to.
98 was a heavy year for stealth. Tenchu, the original Thief, and MGS all came out. Still, Metal Gear is the only one I consider to be truly about stealth.
Splinter Cell Chaos Theory is the best stealth game. I loved MGS but would hardly even consider it a stealth game.
COG writes: Every month, two armies stand in a field and stare at each other in an intimidating manner. A battle royale ensues. Sony and Microsoft stand at arm's length from each other, slapping each other with white gloves in a distinguished fashion. Actually, they just give away free games. Which lineup rules the roost in December 2015? Let's turn to the tale of the tape.
I am thinking EVERYONE wins. Whether the games are great or mediocre, they are downloadable with your console online service of choice and give you some value, and even more gameplay time. YAY to games.
Van Helsing and Sacred are better than anything the PS4 is getting.
Lol Sony is giving us an episode of a game (something that Telltale routinley gives out for free), and a game that has been part of a $3 bundle on the PC.
Having said that, I expected more from both as a Christmas present.
Still, Gold takes it hands down seeing as how all Gold games can now be played on the XBONE.
Before hearing all of this noise as of late, I already though that the E3 demo for this game looked bland and terrible.
Now, the news seems to be confirming my suspicions.
Oh well, I never played the originals, so I have no expectations. Doesn't look like I will bother with this game, especially with so many great titles on the way.
So we're basically deciding that a game is bad way before its release? Yeah good idea.
Not.
Biased, unprofessional (and grammatically atrocious) article. Not worth the click.
Well, the gameplay video from E3 looks fun, not as good as Dishonored imo but still good.
The fuck am I seeing a site telling you to cancel your preorders and write off a game because of one unconfirmed and anonymous report from polygon, that they have trouble with the game. Wow these people should be shut down, this kind of irresponsible and reckless reporting can hurt people's real livelihood all for hits.
Looks like dishonored. Not good or bad. Let's wait and see.
