GI - "Last week, I had the chance to play several Xbox One launch titles at a preview event in San Francisco. I had a lot of fun with Dead Rising 3, saw potential in Project Spark, and was impressed by the revival of Killer Instinct, but few things I saw on the software side of things screamed “next gen” to me. When new consoles release this month, I hope that gamers aren’t expecting the full potential of the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 to be present on day one."
The Dead Rising series has enjoyed a long and storied history over the years, but which game in the series is best?
Over the last week, Jake has been going back to the Dead Rising 2 Off The Record remaster and has been an absolute blast. When he was 15 he first got his Xbox 360 and Dead Rising with it, it was unlike any other experience. It made him wonder though, what happened to the Dead Rising series.
Interesting timing. This retrospective was released just a few days ago: https://youtu.be/Et-cKSrWuc...
They took away the depth and charm of the game that made it fun and interesting, and made it into a generic zombie killing game.
This was the series the got me to buy an Xbox 360. The first one was so good. It still had horror elements. As it went on it became kind of a parody. Never forget getting Zombie Genecider achievement and then restarting the game to get the Mega Buster. That thing was monstrous against enemies.
VGChartz's Patrick Day-Childs: "2020 is upon us! The past decade has had some downs, like the influx of monetisation within full games, Blizzard's community backlash and EA winning the worst company in America award twice, but also some ups, like the leaps in understanding gaming from more mainstream companies to wholesome news like gamers helping preserve a controller signed by someone’s deceased mum.
The decade has also been the highlight of some… bizarre news, and I decided collect together some of the more obscure and quirky stories to make you giggle or question what the hell happened this decade."
I'm quite sure no one is, game journalists excepted.
so many articles downplay the trashiness of xbone
I think judging by launch games is a pretty stupid thing to do.
Does it make someone feel good inside? "The games I like are BETTER than the ones YOU LIKE!"
It's silly, since it's all based on opinion.
The pressure is on ms to deliver quality exclusives for x1 cuz we all know how that is(look at the low support 360 got) the ball is their court to suprise us all
Launch titles mean very little, but it's always nice to have a strong one. The US's PS2 launch was pretty epic. The Playstation 1 - not so much. Total Eclipse, Toshinden and Street Fighter The Movie - Hardly set the stage for things to come did they?
By the end of the year all 3 consoles will have a lot of great stuff. It's a good time to be gaming. :)
