My most anticipated next gen game under BF4.

1. BF4
2. Titanfall
3. Dead rising 3 (played it a few days ago, so fun!)

I personally wasn't that impressed with this games graphics when I previewed it on my 360! It didn't strike me as next gen and the color pallet reminded me of gears too much! I personally think Ryse is the Ones launch game to get... The gameplay in Ryse is the closest thing I've seen MS do to capturing the feel of say the God of War franchise!

Hufandpuf3851d ago

I played Ryse, it was good but DR3 was better in terms of how much fun I had. Ryse I was like "cool", but DR3 I was like "WOW, I didn't know you could do that".

IWentBrokeForGaming3851d ago

What was so WOW about Dead Rising that you couldn't do previously? Cause I haven't seen it... Not attacking, just asking!

The weapons were much better in terms of combo weapons. You don't have to go to a workbench to combine objects now. You can just do it on the fly. And now the weapons can almost combine with everything, so no longer do you need a. Guide telling you what goes with what in a strict manner, you can eat pretty creative and the weapons are powerful for example: a weapon that looked like wolverine claws that shot automatic bullets which took out zombies in waves, or the battery hammer which smashed zombies and spread electricity to other zombies around them.

The gameplay is MUCH more fluid making the combat better compared to DR2 where if you get hit, you'd stall and be open for more attacks. It's easier to move around zombies and the frame rate never slowed down no matter how much you put on the screen.

Also you can combine cars. Personally I didn't know how despite the staff telling me how to do it, but I saw others that combined taxis with garbage trucks and making the death mobiles that shot either flames or electric guns from cannons on top of them.

It was easily the most talked about game they showed which were:
Forza 5
Ryse
killer Instinct
Kinect Wave Rider game

And everyone that played DR3 were finding new cool things that others wanted to see, like when I showed a staff member how to become invisible to zombies with a some yet overlooked combination, which was awesome.

Oh, and football grenades!

graphics-wise, it's pretty basic.
I'm hoping that the 'next-gen' effort is
put into the gameplay.

Although the late 2000s Turok wasn't my favorite, I would love a new entry. Open world survival with shotguns and dinosaurs. Not sure how we'd get the fusion cannon, but that would be pretty sweet too.

MadLad593d ago

Lol

All of these games are pretty much universally praised. Outside of Timeshift I literally own all of these.

Venoxn4g593d ago (Edited 593d ago )

XIII, The Darkness 2, Far Cry: Blood Dragon, Timesplitters: future perfect, Bulletstorm are awesome games

An ode to Titanfall: The last twitch shooter I'll probably ever enjoy

Windows Central: "Titanfall 1 is being sunset, taken off storefronts by EA. While the servers remain live for now, one has to wonder just how much time it has left. I look back and pay tribute to the last "twitch"-styled shooter I ever truly loved."

Physical media. Unfortunately the way games are going these days game servers will eventually be shut down and you can stare at the menu and wish you could play the game again.

littletad874d ago

This is why reading is so important. Nothing to do with digital or physical media. The game, which is online only, is being delisted because of DDOS and other hacker attacks. The case got so bad that only six players in the world log on. For PC. Rather than fix it, they continued to sell the game, broken as it is, and only now just decided to call it quits. But please, go on thinking what you will.

Ethereal872d ago

I'm aware of the DDOS attacks and that this case is not typical. This game would eventually have it's servers shutdown regardless of the current situation so that is a moot point. My comment was in a general sense and that there are instances in which games can be preserved physically when official support ends.

Let's recap your first sentence. I said, "the way GAMES are going these days" indicating a broader stroke than just this game. I agree, reading IS important. I was simply stating the obvious downsides of the digital marketplaces and online only trends in games these days. I could even make the argument that the online only offering which has allowed hacker manipulation has impacted the preservation of this great game. My comment is valid in the general sense and thank you for your permission to continue to think what I will.
