Amazon has discounted several PlayStation 4 games to below $20, including .hack//G.U. Last Recode, Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, Devil May Cry HD Collection, Dissidia Final Fantasy NT, Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, Super Bomberman R, Tempest 4000, Titanfall 2 and more.
The VR industry has long awaited sign of true Call of Duty VR games, but will it ever happen? And does it need to happen?
I don't think it's in Activision's DNA to stick their neck out on something like this unfortunately. They've got a surefire winner with COD so why risk a winning formula.
fwiw, Firewall Zero Hour was more fun than COD for me, but obviously didn't have the same user base and budget
I wonder hypothetically if a non-VR COD style game were to integrate VR players, could you even balance such a thing out. I'm guessing no.
Highly unlikely at the moment. Executives are more concerned with being bought by Daddy Warbucks and golden parachutes than moving VR forward. They had a chance last gen but released a spaceship, combat demo instead. COD would increase VR awareness but if they were bought, the same thing that happened to other developers under Microsoft would happen to them.
Just consider, before being bought by Microsoft, Bethesda had Skyrim and Wolfenstein Cyber pilot. Ninja Theory had Hell Blade, Dexed and helped with Vader Immortal. Inxile had Mage's Tale. Double Fine had Psychonauts. ID Software had Doom VFR and Doom 3. Compulsion had We Happy Few: Uncle Jack Live.
Ever since the purchase of those developers, zero VR games announced or released. And since Microsoft continues to shun VR, Activision games like COD wouldn't have VR either under them.
Firewall, Crossfire, Pavlov, and whoever else makes an FPS game in VR, will have to do for the time being. Maybe Sony will make one like Killzone or Resistance in VR. Also surprised that Valve didn't put Counterstrike in VR.
I think the experience would be so different to traditional CoD and share so little with it that there would be no point in pinning the CoD label on it. I think Pavlov is about as close as you’ll get
Daily Video Game writes: "Today, Xbox Store has just kicked off three new digital game sales titled Ubisoft Publisher Sale, QuakeCon Sale, and Publisher Spotlight Series Sale that steeply discount on Bethesda, Ubisoft, as well as several good games from other publishers right now!"
People really do owe it to themselves to play the original Quake.
I first played 3, which was all multiplayer focused and I love it to this day.
Played 2, thought the campaign sucked, then never cared to play the original
When the original ended up on Gamepass I just gave it a shot and it's definitely one of the best shooters of the 90s, as far as I'm concerned.
I wonder if they are going to add QUAKE 2 and QUAKE 4 for current gen consoles on Thursday when QUAKECON starts?
I'd hope so.
Like I said, wasn't a fan of Quake 2, but Quake 4 was one of my favorite shooters on 360.
I have it on PC, but it's one of those games you need to jump through hoops to get running properly on modern hardware.
It plays, but all the lighting and shadowing is gone, and the textures are basically nothing.
Tempest 4000 is a blisteringly difficult but highly satisfying sensory extravaganza.
Even under $20 Dissidia NT isn’t worth it to me. Now if Sora were to appear as DLC that’d be a different story
