In this episode of the NGN n00bcast we discuss the imminent announcement of the Xbox 720, or whatever the heck they’re going to call it this time, and what our predictions for the system are. We also cover the closing Zynga studios in Baltimore and Texas, and the newly announced Assassin’s Creed game. Finally we reflect on the PlayStation 4 announcement, now that we’ve had time to let the hype wear off, and how our opinions may have changed.
All you’ve ever wanted… and more!
Vince Zyle writes "Star Wars Hunters is a really fun game! It’s not as good as other Star Wars games like Star Wars Battlefront 2 but coming from a developer like Zynga who worked on very underwhelming and low-quality titles before, this is a major upgrade.
There’s not much objectively wrong with the game aside from the work needed to make visuals smoother during animations. That’s one of the biggest issues at present alongside frame drops that occur from time to time when there’s too much going on which isn’t too bad but certainly noticeable.
In conclusion, Star Wars Hunters is a game for arena shooter fans who are looking for an action-filled game. Some of the other issues will hopefully be ironed out with future updates."
The acquisition of Zynga by Take-Two Interactive might become the video game industry's version of the AOL Time Warner merger.
