5 Recent Games That Should Have Been Delayed

Nerdacy: "It seems that ever since this new console generation began it has been marred by delays and re-releases. I’m not saying every game should be delayed in order to achieve its full potential, but rather not announced until the developer team is sure they’re giving us a truly finished product. Though, there are games that should have been delayed. Here are a few of those games."

Wolfenstein is brilliant. I'd rather see a great and complete single player game like they did then have tacked on multi-player.

GTA V and Online was perfectly fine. But, it was the end of the console cycle so they were pushing the hardware to the max.

Watch Dogs was a case of a game that set expectation too high and didn't live up to them.

BF4 deserved a delay. Titanfall should've been delayed to get a deeper campaign (If you can call it that). Thief should've been delayed to improve the game. EA's NBA Live 14 should've been delayed to improve the game. MGS V Ground Zeros should've been delayed to make a game with deeper and more content.

AstroCyborg3989d ago (Edited 3989d ago )

every game in this list except bf4 was delayed wolfenstein was amazing & the devs are known for having amazing sp only games like the darkness & riddick whoever wrote this sounds like the typical casual who only likes tacked on online in games

Dying_Jester3989d ago

I definitely disagree with a few of those, mainly GTA V, Wolfenstien, and Watch Dogs.

Watch Dogs - This is Ubisoft we are talking about, NOTHING was going to change if they delayed it again except the amount of pre order bonuses.

GTA V - This came out at the time it should have. Another GTA finally came out, last gen ended with a bang, and PC and current gen were going to get it anyways.

Wolfenstien - REALLY?! Now that's just bull sh*t nitpicking.

Also, people need to stop beating the Battlefield 4 cow and focus on making EA avoid making Hardline DOA in terms of functioning game.

Sniper Elite 3,Soul Suspect,Brokenfield 4,Thief and Titanfall all released buggy and unfinished.That's just nxt gen games on Xbone.Can't comment on PS4.

Milk...get your milk...and so much more. Really when you release the same games in three editions over 15 years it's amazing how much money, and the amount of sales you earn. It's amazing how no one can compete.

Mr_cheese30d ago

To be fair, no many companies could release the same game over and over. They've earned that whether we agree or not

DarXyde30d ago

I mean Resident Evil 4 has had longer legs and still hasn't done anything like this.

Profchaos30d ago (Edited 30d ago )

GTA v isn't the only game that's released three consoles generations running but nothing has sold those numbers including GTA San Andreas which is now 4 console generations deep.

anast30d ago

Looks like a 2040 release for GTA6

gold_drake30d ago

thats insane right?
absolutely insane

rlow130d ago

No surprising considering that it’s been on every major platform and store.

I decided to look up the longest and most sold games list. To my surprise Tetris has takes the top spot.

I mean, considering the amount of time between the two. It better be a massive upgrade. Especially with the amount of money Rockstar raked in from GTA Online.

MDTunkown38d ago

Most of scenes are pre rendered

andy8538d ago

Literally none are. If you know anything about rockstar they don't do that. Confirmed by themselves that this is all in-game

MDTunkown38d ago

Is that why first gta5 trailer looked better than the final product? Or is that why same happened with rdr2 ?
Rockstar told 50% are cutscenes and rockstars always used better models during cutscenes than in game.
You legit seems to know rockstar very well.

andy8537d ago (Edited 37d ago )

It didn't though? And neither did RDR2. In fact it was actually the opposite. What's with the hate boner? If you don't like it just avoid the topic

InUrFoxHole37d ago

Why don't either of you provide proof. This is just a he said, she said argument at this point

generic-user-name38d ago

You're either lying or just don't know what pre rendered means. Pre rendered means that if you change the character's appearance (clothes, accessories etc) they wouldn't show up in the cutscenes because they were already made and aren't being rendered in real time. This is something that doesn't happen in Rockstar games.

"Is that why first gta5 trailer looked better than the final product? Or is that why same happened with rdr2 ?"

In fact some of the scenes in RDR2 looked better in the retail version than at launched.

anast37d ago

The OP is taking the shot-gun approach: say a bunch of random tripe and see if something sticks.

repsahj37d ago

Damn! GTAV graphics are still awesome! But, I am so excited to play GTA6!!!

I believe it's been on ps+ a few times over the years of I'm not mistaking same goes for gamepass.

‘GTA V Gets Pulled from PS Plus as PC Players Continue to Favor Legacy Over Enhanced’

That’s an awful clickbait title. The use of the word ‘as’ means the first statement is the result of the second, when in reality they’re not connected.

Profchaos50d ago

Also the same for red dead redemption 2 and GTA trilogy (albeit they split that into individual games)

Tacoboto50d ago

It just got put back on Game Pass recently too.

GTA V is the pass-around sub title, and it probably doesn't even matter because everyone owns a copy or even two by now.

FortWaba50d ago

Trash article and trash website.

Doesn't even mention WHEN it's leaving.

gold_drake50d ago (Edited 50d ago )

so i looked cause i was curious, its still avaliable to me.

the headline is misleading asf.

also, how did no one report this. the editing is horrendous. they'd have my arse for this ha

gamerz50d ago

Noticed my copy of gta5 on Steam was already upgraded without me doing anything. How can you still play the legacy version?

Shiore2u49d ago

There should be a second listing right under it in your library.

Is there anything wrong with the enhanced version if you’re just playing single player?
