OXCGN: Helldivers is currently holding an 82 over at Metacritic based on 19 reviews. Suffice to say Helldivers doesn’t have the same following as the bigger AAA titles released on the console, however it’s good to see that critics are enjoying Helldivers, which launched on the Playstation 3, 4 and Vita this week is receiving positive reviews.
This makes me extremely excited.
In the update players will receive Proving Grounds and an improve loadout system.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "Competing with other players online is ingrained into the gaming ecosystem these days, with every hardware manufacturer (even the previously resistant Nintendo) offering ways to connect to others over the internet to engage in multiplayer. Ever since SEGA blazed a trail with their gone-too-soon Dreamcast and titles such as Chu Chu Rocket and Phantasy Star Online, the console landscape changed towards embracing the internet – solidified further by Microsoft’s Xbox initiative in 2001.
On handhelds, inroads into online gaming were slower, but with the advent of Sony’s PSP in 2005 that changed again and suddenly portable experiences were offered that could also connect with other players across the world. This was refined further with their next-generation handheld the PlayStation Vita, which offered improvements like easily accessible friends lists, system-based party chat, alongside some of the best portable online games that were available at the time of its release."
Killzone Mercenary has spectacular gameplay and great mp. Underrated game.
Helldivers was pretty awesome to have on Vita.
NFS MW worked well on Vita.
Arrowhead Studios, the developers of Helldivers and the Magicka series are working on a new third-person online co-op game.
This game. So much fun. Not sure I've enjoyed a PSN title as much as this before. Seriously 4 player co-op is a blessing. Exclusive AAA titles though are the cream of the crop but hell if this isn't a good game still.
So the author is suggesting he is only now interested in "Helldivers" and similar style games because it is getting quality reviews??
whatever happened out to figuring out things on your own??
don't solely buy something based on the opinion of others...
use your own judgement.. I mean it is your money...
you don't need a review to tell you if a game looks like a game you'll enjoy
man this game is so UNIQUE. Loving it. Never had this much fun with co-op.
