The problem with reviews: ‘The story is awesome! Also, the game’s OK’

Anyone who grew up during the 1990s remembers how common it was to rate games according to visuals when 3D graphics first came around. Let’s not let that happen again.

Some interesting points. I agree that gameplay should remain the core focus, but many games these days aren't gameplay oriented. They're more narratively focused, and that's their goal. It's important to assess games based on what they're trying to do. Not every game requires the same rubric for evaluation.

I thought publishers paid for all those reviews because game journalists are all so filthy rich from the UbiDollars. I should probably add "FACT!" to that so it's really true.

The Last Of Us Series Has Remarkable Potential For Spin-Offs

Najam from eXputer writes "It's time fore a new installment in the series, not another pointless remaster."

They are working on something new. Not to be rude but it is impossibility stupid to think ND next major announcement is going to be a remaster or their next Last of Us entry is going to be another remaster.

I think this is in response to them releasing a remaster for the sequel, a game that didn't need a remaster.

Basically a "why did you put out a remaster no one asked for when you have all there options available"

anast77d ago

They remaster is to put out something quick while they are deving new stuff. I don't get how people can be so static.

AlterRecs76d ago

There's no news about a third game being in production, you're just assuming that they're working on something that they aren't

anast76d ago

When they release the news to start the hype-train, you can give me my props then.

I want an alternate timeline spin-off, where part 2 never happened.

CrimsonWing6980d ago

They’ve already done Remasters of 1 and 2… what else is there to Remaster?

AlterRecs77d ago

Considering they remastered the first game twice, who knows lol

CrimsonWing6977d ago

That was a Remake. I guess they could do that to 2, but man…. They should wait a couple generations so it can look like a major upgrade.
