They really need to announce Just Cause 3 already!

JC2 is one of the best Sandbox games I have ever played. Especially on PC with mods!

Root4093d ago (Edited 4093d ago )

Lets not forget it's MASSIVE

I mean they even had a small LOST island in the corner where you plane explodes when it gets near to it. Not just a small reference to it...the bloody island

Seriously if it's that big now I can't wait to see what next gens JC game will be like.

@MurDocINC

No No and No

JC is a good game but isn't perfect, despite it's size the environment seems pretty dead...let them work on more important features then bloody co-op. If you want to play with a friend so bad get it both on PC and wait for a co-op mod. Sorry but it's not that easy to add co-op in a game like this a lot of work goes behind it and I'd rather them waste it on other things

MurDocINC4093d ago

Saints Row 2, Saints Row 3 and Mercenaries 2 had more features, great SP and great coop. Don't see why JC3 can't pull off the same.

Root4093d ago (Edited 4093d ago )

Yeah but look what happened to the quality over those games

I think we can agree that SR3 wasn't as good as SR2, the map was smaller and they didn't improve a whole lot in the environment or AI. Mercenaries was the same, more features but everything didn't feel as improved.

Just Cause 3 needs to stick what it knows best and not get distracted with wasting resources on co-op.

Can we not just enjoy a single player game for once. JC, Elder Scrolls, Fallout for example are kind of like the last pure single player games left and people STILL want to ruin them by putting co-op in them because they think it's such an easy thing to do when it's not

hay4093d ago

SR2 had coop, while being better than SR3. Coop does not ruin anything. But shoddy implementation is completely different story.

I'm all about coop in pretty much every game. It can make most boring game a blast to play with friends. Especially when it requires barely any different design approach than single player.

IMO, true gaming lies in coop, but hasn't been embraced properly yet. But Portal 2 has shown, that there lies another world of gaming in cooperative play.

Few more years...

Root4093d ago

True gaming is about co-op

What the hell are you on...I really would like to know how you did back in the silver/golden age of gaming when it was mostly well crafted, quality single player games.

Avalanche Studios Co-Founder Reveals Canceled Iron Man Game Was in Development for Two Years

Avalanche Studios co-founder has revealed new information about the canceled Iron Man game that was in development for two years.

RaidenBlack614d ago

Damn ... now that he mentioned it, Avalanche would've done an interesting job with an Iron-Man open world project.

neutralgamer1992613d ago

Yes but the story would have sucked because none of their games have even a decent story and their games always have performance issues

MadLad613d ago

They don't have the best writers, but they know how to make an enjoyable and engaging open world game.

They feel a lot like Obsidian back in the day. Great developer that's always scraping by and constantly getting screwed by publishers.

mkis007613d ago

Well the most enjoyable part of just cause for me was the jet suit in 3. Played exclusively with it.

ApocalypseShadow613d ago

Stuff like this just happens. This game was cancelled, there was a Superman game that was cancelled, Justice League, Flash game, 2 Batman games, Avengers game, Daredevil game, Spider-Man 4, Marvel Universe Online, etc etc.

I don't doubt that there will be more in the future cancelled. And more future super hero games released that will be great.

Avalanche Studios co-founders establish new studio Elemental Games

From Gematsu: "Elemental Games, a Stockholm-based studio formed in August 2021 by founding members of Avalanche Studios including co-founders Linus and Viktor Blomberg, has officially announced its establishment.

The studio, which is privately held, has a mission to create “high-quality open-world experiences from a creatively and financially independent position.” Its first title, an original intellectual property, is currently in development."

MadLad769d ago

We'll see what comes from this.

Always considered them a middle of the road developer.
Avalanche always made fun games, just nothing truly impressive.

neutralgamer1992769d ago

I agree they are the definition of 7.5-8/10. And their post launch support in the past has sucked when it comes to patches needed to fix known issues
