This is my top 10 list, what is yours ? Note that the list doesn't include games such as Persona 5, FF15 or MGS5, as they are games that have either been announced or guaranteed to be made.
Some honourable mentions:
-New Suikoden game
-New XenoGears
-Pokemon Console rpg
-Vanquish 2
Lets get started:
10. Shenmue 3: Shenmue was a revolutionary game which invented quick time events. Excellent story and gameplay.
9. Killer instinct 3 or new Bloody Roar: A good-effort mash-up between Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter , but with better formulas like Ultra combo's, Combo breaks e.t.c I want it back
8. Final Fantasy Tactics or Ogre Battle: both are made by the same people and have similar gameplay. You can get 100's of hours out of these tactical games. Its like excercise to the mind
7. New Valkyria Chronicles game on consoles: to this day I think this game has the best story I have ever seen on the PS3 and any current gen game in general. I would like put the series back on consoles where it started.
6. A Dragon Ball Z, One Piece or Naruto RPG game with a large world to explore like Final Fantasy 6 or 7 or Skyrim.
5. Shadow Hearts 3: unique and fun gameplay, the ring system is very addictive. It also has a dark story, sometimes I find the atmosphere scary. But I like the world and ideas in this series. Unfortunately the company who made the game (Azure) has gone bankrupt I believe, I wonder who holds the rights to it now?
4. Dark Cloud 3: Sony owns the rights to this amazing series. Think of Sims + Legend of Zelda. This is Sony's Legend of Zelda game, and many reviewers have pointed it out. Its high rated, highly wanted, what's keeping Sony stopping from making this?
3. Chrono Trigger sequel or a new Chrono Game (AKA Chrono Break): Square Enix did register a tarde mark for this game, then they canned it. Fans then tried to revive the series by making a Fan made game called Chrono Ressurection, until Square Enix put an end to it with a cease and desist notice. Its one of Square's highest rated franchises, I do not understand why they aren't taking advantage of it.
2. Kingdom Hearts 3: at this point I am guessing SE doesn't want to make a new KH game, they are just as happy making spin ff's as they see fans buying them spin off's anyway. This game needs to be made now, the KH series is so fun.
1. FF7 remake: The game which put RPG's on the map, never mind JRPG's. This game single handedly made RPG's mainstream. The JRPG genre has been on a serious decline on consoles, and I think it will just take 1 great and amazing game to put it back n the Map. SE says the game will NOT get made until they make an FF game better than FF7. This came straight from Wada...well considering SE's recent offerings *cough* FF13 and FF14, I doubt we will see that happening, so long as Yoichi Wada and Toriyama are heavily involved with the series.
Xbox's handling of the marketing for Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 is casting a huge doubt over the future of its developer, Ninja Theory.
They should be worried. They we told they were free to be creative to dev. a walking sim, and now Phil and the Lady are walking that back.
The lack of worldwide availability of Arrowhead Studios' Helldivers 2 on Steam is due to restrictions from PlayStation, not Valve.
To be clear though, Steam does not restrict use of their platform in any country. So, to say that Sony delisted games in Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, and other similar regions is disingenuous. The taliban doesn't allow video games in Afghanistan.
There are many restrictions in many countries. Painting this as a false dichotomy of Sony or Valve ignores all other layers of what is going on.
Just be honest in your journalism about what countries are left out. Those countries should a) have internet access b) allow the game.
There's literally almost 170 countries and mentioned 3, and Taliban banned PUBG only, do you seriously think that these countries that had games all this time, suddenly decided to ban games when Sony wanted to put PSN as a restriction
Sony would be stupid to let valve run the show. They would be bad at business if they did that.
Companies, particularly public companies like Microsoft, need to grow.
i mean its pretty simple, they spent close to 30 billion in acquiring activision, they thought they'd make it bk no problem, and that didnt happen.
its just shit that because of MS's miscalculation alot of people lost their jobs.
This is exactly what many people said would happen including the CMA and FTC. Lies lies and more lies and they allowed a $69 billion buy out to happen.
gold,
You can't be serious, right?
Do you think that MS thought they would make 80bill in a year & Half? They haven't even released titles under MS yet, lol.
But in fact, that A/B revenue is already paying off, look at the last earnings call. That $80 billion is long-term money, my guy, no sane person/company would think they would make that back in any short-term situation, it's a long-term investment.
Let's play silly then. If MS's reason for laying off staff and closing studios was due(which it really was not) to the A/B deal, tell me what Sony's reason was for past studio closures, the recent 900-person layoffs, closing Sony London, shutting down Dreams, and closing Japan Studio? Zipper? Psygnosis? cuts at all their internal studios.
Keep in mind, you are claiming MS's reason is because of the A/B deal; please explain Sony's reason.
this is not a sony vs MS debate. dont make it something it isnt.
and of course not, but im pretty sure they thought they'd make more money after the deal. they didnt, and closed off some studios.
its pretty insane to think there is any other reason for the closure of studios in this case.
(It really was) due to the Activision Blizzard deal and the loss of physical sales due to gamepass. You keep bringing up Sony in all your posts about this, stop deflecting and trying to change the topic, this is about MS and what they are doing.
They are going to use AI for a large portion of the game development process. Upper management need bonuses and the shareholders need more money. So, people will lose their jobs.
Maybe they were already using AI to make business decisions, which would explain why they closed Hi-Fi Rush's studio, then said they need more games like Hi-Fi Rush not long after that announcement.
Whats your most wanted unannounced game, and why?
I can think of a bunch. Considered writing my own article with something similar actually.
A new Bloody Roar game
Timesplitters 4
MAG 2
Starwars Battlefront 3
Knights of the old republic 3
Republic commando sequel (the FPS on Xbox & PC, was great)
A decent next gen Turok game (or just dinosaurs in general...)
A decent Harry Potter game that has some kind of RPG elements
A full 3D HD pokemon game, which takes the story back to team rocket, with anime cutscenes, multiplayer Colosseums
and all 649 pokemon with references to older regions
A decent next gen Tenchu
I have zero hope for these games, as most these days (other than Pokemon) wouldn't have a market big enough
Want to say a Front Mission title that uses fog of war, electric/cyber warfare and permanent death as well as squad based versus combat for online, but hey, I'd be asking that from Square.
Sad truth: the way game making is being looked at and done by devs and publishers doesn't really support the kind of innovation I was expecting in say the 90's.
I'd love a new Shadowrun, Lunar, Popful Mail, Snatcher, Sewer Shark, Rise of the Dragon, Super Dodgeball (I'd settle for an XBLA release), Fallout 4 (Yes I know it's coming but I want it NOW), A Final fantasy game that actually looks and feels like Final Fantasy and a relaunch of Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain.
I really wish these did get remade somehow, but I agree they are highly unlikely. I'd love to see a new MDK game and River City Ransom HD.
