WE ARE DOOMED Review | Xbox Culture

We Are Doomed is a twin-stick shooter, developed and published by Vertex Pop, where you zap polygon baddies with a insanely oversized and overpowered laserbeam, of course, this can be charged in to a superbeam, this is where things start to get a little crazy and absurd. The game features a unique lo-fi aesthetic, with bold shapes, glitching geometry and bright neon colours. The game has been compared to the classic arcade game 'Asteroids' and the more up to date game 'Geometry Wars', but this isn't a throwback to the way games used to be and look, but an alternate reality where neon coloured, vector-based graphics, rule the place.

10 year later 2030 - ps4 emulator games = ingame (half playable. no start to finish)

Movefasta19931542d ago

no need when all those ps4 games will be in some way playable on pc, and streaming will have improved tremendously in a decade.

Babadook71542d ago (Edited 1542d ago )

And all those streamed games are running on rented Ps4 hardware.

Movefasta19931542d ago (Edited 1542d ago )

as long as they play and beat it babadook that's irrelevant.

SierraGuy1542d ago (Edited 1542d ago )

How can you be so sure streaming will have improved tremendously in a decade?

I don't notice much difference from 2010 to now.🤔

SierraGuy1542d ago

Yes I agree...but this must be done for game preservation.

"How can you be so sure streaming will have improved tremendously in a decade?

Really now? Google Stadia and xCloud didn't even exist in 2010, and they're both up and running full retail AAA games today at high quality. You really haven't noticed 'much difference' between then and now?

King_Noctis1541d ago

I believe it will be faster than that though. Tech advances really quick nowadays, and pretty soon we might have consumer CPUs/GPUs that have enough grunt to emulate this system.

mkis0071542d ago

I feel like console emulators are now just a project people can flex their coding muscles on rather than being a legit way to preserve or emulate said console. By the time ps3 and ps4 is 100% there will be a better, cheaper solution in place.

ShadowWolf7121541d ago

What's a better, cheaper solution than downloading freeware and ripping your own games?

mkis0071540d ago

Not having to buy an i7 and a high end card to play a handful of games with poor performance. Its only a matter of time before official emulation happens.

ShadowWolf7121540d ago

"Official" Emulation?

Which would require, what... buying new hardware anyway?

On top of that, the PS4 is an x86 machine with very few truly "custom" parts, emulating it likely won't require much by way of "brute force" unlike the specialized consoles of old.

Ill play it eventually when it runs fine. And the PS5 will run ps4 games. But I wont ever sell my PS4 because my mom bought it for me as a bday present.

We Are Doomed Review – GameSpew

A visually pleasing arena-shooter, We Are Doomed suffers from "looks aren't everything" as the visuals write a cheque the gameplay can't quite cash.

We Are Doomed Review | Reviews 2 Go

Reviews 2 Go just finished up their review of the twin-stick shooter, We Are Doomed. Here are their final thoughts:

"We Are Doomed is a very dramatic title for a dramatic-looking game. On the downside, the game doesn’t really have a lot of depth to it, be it in weapon variety or environment variety. If you’re looking for a non-hardcore twin-stick shooter for quick play sessions, though, I can’t really say no. Despite not having a huge amount of depth, it’s a very fun game. "
