Cultured Vultures: These 15 unresolved video cliffhangers could be solved in the future, though if we’re really honest with ourselves, we all know there’s no chance in hell of that happening.
Never say never, I really didn't expect to ever see Space Marine 2 and 12 years later its almost here.
So there is still hope for all these games.
I've completed 5 of the games on the list, but the author forgot to include Advent Rising. It was supposed to be a trilogy, but it bombed hard, and the two sequels never got made. It was Mass Effect, a console generation before Mass Effect.
The game is buggy and unpolished, it needed a few more months of development, but the potential was there. At the end of the game, you have all these super abilities, I remember the stomp attack that created a shockwave being especially powerful.
I personally think days gone will recieve some sort of sequel at some point. I'm personally also hoping it's not the rumored multiplayer online stuff. I'd think most that enjoyed it would rather thisnto.
Sony needs to dust off Sly Cooper and Days Gone so needs a sequel two of my favorite Sony titles. Bulletstorm I love great game wish it also got a sequel. And I wish Namco would finally give Enslaved a sequel another great game.
We need a part 2 doesn't even have to be Deacon. But I had no problems with him either, he was a dude on a mission.
I think with Jim Ryan gone we may get a sequel down the road. It has become a cult classic
This was so fun I love the hoards. People need to stick with it because the start is very slow
Has a really good PC port too, I wasn't expecting much from this game but I had a blast. Wish it had a part 2 as the story was building well.
It does take some time to get some weapons ,skills and a few bike upgrades up to feel like you got a rhythm going but then it really starts to click and the game is a lot of fun
I was sad when it ended. I wanted more. I'd have to look but I think that was one of the few games I platinumed to. I only got like 4. I don't go out of my way for trophies though
@shinoff same I only have 4 plats and one is Days Gone, and I also don’t go out of my way for platinums.
Was a very fun game and wish there would be a sequel, maybe one day they will come back to it with a different pitch that Sony will approve.
They probably rejected it he sequel because it might not have been the direction they were going for with gaas games and the like.
@shinioff I had the same feeling when I got the platinum. I need more. Hopefully they make a sequel and leave multiplayer out of it unlike the last pitch for Days Gone2.
The critical reception had Sony relegate Bend to a support studio. Thank God the fans spoke up and Sony reversed that decision.
These are some of the most detailed video games available now. The games contain details regarding the plot or mind-blowing visual effects.
Quantum Break and Ryse Son of Rome. They're the only 2 Microsoft games I ever enjoyed, probably because they felt like PlayStation games.
What Xbox games are missing?
What Xbox games would even be candidates? The OG Xbox version of Chaos Theory?
None - I took that as his point. There aren't any xbox games that are contenders for this list.
“Not one ‘Xbox made’ game.”
“Made”
Yet people are throwing out games made by third parties that are exclusive to Xbox, which isn’t what the question asked.
Blew my mind back in 2001 in the bar area, each bottle smashing individuallly when you shot them too. Never seen that before
I’m so glad to see Days Gone get some recognition, because it absolutely is a BEAUTIFUL looking game, and in other times, downright incredible, with its snow forming on the ground over time and the storms coming in with the winds blowing the trees is a sight to behold! I remember at one point I was using photo mode and snapped this photo (I swear) using the filters and other effects the shot I captured looked so realistic, it was remarkable. It was of a leaf 🍁 (others were around it) by this train track and the area was wet from the rain. I captured many others, which turned out fantastic. I’m sure ya’ll captured some fantastic one’s yourselves. Oh, and the horde of freakers 500 coming at you is insane and a sight to see. Wish we could get a sequel, Days Gone deserves it!
Uncharted 4 - Man, that game still blows me away still to this day. ND really captured the adventures of Nate, Elena, Sully and Sam in a way that was not just so stunning to look at, but in a way that EVERY new location, be it in a new area of this specific city, town, jungle, mountain range etc all felt truly living, with life. One of my favorite locations was the old lady’s mansion, such a simple mission, yet so fun, intriguing, sad, and intense all at the same time. And the richness of detail packed into the objects in that mansion is superbly detailed. Anyone notice the couch pillow in Nate and Elena’s house actually mushes down when she rests her arm on it when she’s talking to Nate about him taking the job? ND delivered with best in class character models, yet again. Dirt in nails, I mean🤯 I remember capturing a photo of Nate hanging from a ledge in Madagascar and I snapped a pic, zoomed in, and dirt was in his finger nails, that’s just insane detail. Add on the chest hair blowing in the wind lol.
RDR2 - Masterpiece of a game! In visual details, how this game still looks better than games nowadays (and they don’t even have to be open world) is something else. Fantastic character models, hair/facial hair that grows in real-time, awesome cloud system, NPC characters in the world actually eat their food, cut up their 🥩 among other new details being discovered these almost 5 years later, it’s amazing. Horse testicles. Has me intrigued to see how GTA6 will deliver in comparison to dynamic events etc.
The Last of Us Part 2 - ND took PS4 to its limits with this game. The level of detail in these models is striking, again, best in class, along with the environments. Foliage is phenomenal and doesn’t look like that “cheap” looking video game grass. It’s such a step up in quality. The gore is a visual ummm, I don’t want to say delight, but showcase for depicting how unforgiving that world is. The level of pain, fear and loss on the faces of NPC’s when you take their life in this game as Ellie or Abbie, man I always felt bad about that. And the dogs too… until the dogs came at me, than all bets were off lol. But again, there’s many more details that players who’ve not played this game must see for themselves to appreciate. Motion matching technology to me tho has to be the most impressive thing above even the visuals. Although both compliment each other, playing the game with the tech and the way everything flows so fluidly and smoothly is like playing an E3 demo, each play through feels just that damn good.
Wonder if Sony will give Bend another chance at Days Gone. The game was great, just maybe not the same quality as other PS exclusives. They are on the right track though, for their first new IP since 1999 I would say they should be given a chance to polish in a sequel. I can only imagine the madness of hoards they can make with the PS5. Maybe add a coop mode so that friends can be like a biker gang together and take out giant hordes with each other.
Just seems stupid to not give the IP another chance given it (supposedly) sold extremely well.
As long as it stays single player I hope they do make a sequel. I really enjoyed Days Gone and It would be a guaranteed purchase from me. I have the collectors unopened for the first game.
I wouldn't mind a multiplayer Days Gone. It would have some intense hoard fights for sure! This is from a mainly single player gamer. I would want a single player Days Gone II, with a solid multiplayer mode.
I'm not saying to make it massively multiplayer or PVP, just would be nice to explore and kill hordes with a friend or 2.
@Rimes:”Wonder if Sony will give Bend another chance at Days Gone.”
Personally I would prefer a remastered Warhawk, Starhawk or better jet a new game in the series even if it’s a GAS 😢
Delays arent good. You should be happy they are taking their time with it. Delays suck and shouldnt be a norm like they are today. Yes, there are always brighter sides to delays such as polish. But the industry needs to get better at over promising and under delivering with release dates imo.
???
I'll never understand how delays are considered a good thing seeing as how we usually never really know what was fixed or worked on in that time it was delayed. Not to mention there has been games that were delayed and still turned out to be mediocre or bad. So saying delays is good thing is such a strange mind set unless you know what it is being tweaked or further polished during that time.
It would be nice for next gen if these developers tightened up their schedules, planned out their dev times in a realistic way and actually hit their release dates more than they have this gen.
from a business perspective
the game needs to be protected from juggernauts. Its a new IP after all.
the only annoying thing is these companies know very well in advance which of their games they're going to delay strategically.
and still they will advertise the games as part of the line up for the current year via conferences and trailers.
Im Not too bothered about the delay. It is what it is atleast they get to polish it more anyways. some great games to look forward too this year
Delays can be good, they also can not help the game’s quality much at all as was the case with Star Fox: Zero
