CVG: Despite acknowledging a number of "challenges" in the run-up to this November's Xbox One launch, Xbox Live director of programming Larry 'Major Nelson' Hyrb insists the console hasn't been rushed to market.
Atlantic City - America’s Playground is the dark and dramatic sequel to the glitz and glam of Atlantic City – Boardwalk Paradise.
A third game in the Falconeer series has been announced as the second, Bulwark: Falconeer Chronicles, launches.
While there’s a lot to love about modern video games, there is one trend — particularly in the AAA space — that tends to grate: their length.
Games are coming out with too much fluff and side activities that are horribly dull. That's my main issue with all these open world games. Open world should be about exploration, discovery and wonder, not have some stupid 10s or 100s of boring activities spread throughout.
I stopped buying overfluffed games like a decade ago. Cant stand games with the Ubisoft mindset of just filling maps with uselss collectibles and fodder. Make it mean something. Ill gladly take 1/4 size of the map and 1/10th the "content" if it all meant more, were more unique and greater affect on your progression.
Well people complained like the world was ending when a few games were six to ten hours of gameplay. Developers listened and started making longer games full of repetitive gameplay, time wasting fetch quest and other forms of bloat. In doing so they were able to justify the high cost of a game being sold to the customers at seventy dollars or more.
It's been a problem with pretty much every modern AAA game all through last gen and this gen. God forbid you point it out tho because all these big games are masterpieces and people lose their minds if you criticize them. Death Stranding is a fetch quest fest, but people will die defending it cause it's a "masterpiece".
Who are they kidding? Sony caught Microsoft off guard when they announced PS4 in February, and ever since they've been playing catch up, rushing everything and destroying the Xbox One in the process.
They should release Xbox One in late December or next year.
If not, I predict another RROD fiasco.
It's going to be very hard to trust ms now
Obviously means it has otherwise they wouldn't feel the need to make that statement.
Seems to me we've been reading rumours based on both consoles from around the same time many of which were actually accurate. Other than the PS4 originally having 4GB of ram. Why exactly isn't everyone calling the additionally 4GB a "rushed addition"?
While MS have been stumbling with their strategy and changed policies based on Sonys, I don't see any real indication that the hardware itself is rushed.
Feel free to explain why you disagree if you do and please, no, "it's using AA batteries!!!".
what do you expect him to say? lol
