The 15 biggest games of Gamescom 2014

GamesRadar - Gamescom is brilliant. Not only is it every bit the (very loud) European answer to E3, but in many ways, it's also better. Justin has filled you in on the many, many reasons that the German expo is the cooler show to be at, but for the dedicated craver of game-facts, one factor rises above all others. While E3 is the place for reveals and exciting flashy trailers, GC is where you get the meat.

i have to wait all the way till TGS for persona 5 news. siigh

DCfan3968d ago

I have to wait many uncountable years to hear news of any mainline SMT game again.
Maybe in 10 years

BiggCMan3968d ago

No Metal Gear or Guerrilla's new game?? Dafuq? I find it ridiculous to consider 2 Assassin's Creed games coming at the same time is "big".

To me it's pathetic and taking advantage of people because they know it will sell. I'm rather surprised it took them so long to do it, and more surprised that Call of Duty hasn't done it yet.

FullmetalRoyale3968d ago

I do not see how, in any way/shape/form/ two Assassin's Creed games releasing could be misconstrued as "pathetic". One is for the millions(AND MILLIONS!!) of last-gen users, while the other is obviously for the people fortunate enough to find themselves in a financial situation which allocates the purchase of brand new hardware.

AC is a huge seller, hence it is big.
It's okay not to like a series. But CoD has done the opposite of what you claim to be surprised that they have not done yet. As opposed to pumping out more and more, they've actually pulled the reigns in a bit, allowing their devs to now have full three year cycles to create their CoD. If you're going to release annual game, that is the way to do it, imo. I can't imagine how much better Madden/Fifa would be if every annual game that releases had been in development for three years. Sorry for trailing off there, friend.

Hope we see more UC4 and whatever MM is working on. Not sure if Nintendo will have a large presence at gamescon but I would love to see more Zelda Wiiu if just another teaser trailer. But the most hype thing about this gamescon i would say is easily all the source2 rumours that have been going around.

Im excited to see what QB has in store.

late but still a good move, oobi

InUrFoxHole52d ago

Seriously, it's great to see devs add things to older games.

OhReginald52d ago

Sony....you're really letting ubisoft out of all all companies to out class you??? Give us the bloondborne 60 fps patch....ffs

dantesparda52d ago

I second this (Bloodborne 60fps) plus damn, Ubisoft, you're doing great but now the last thing I want youi to do is mae Far Cry Primal 60fps and AC Unity

Profchaos52d ago

Everytime someone asks for a bloodborne patch it gets delayed 1 day.

ETA next century

I_am_Batman52d ago

They know it's gonna cost them sales of the inevitable Remake that'll probably come around the PS6 launch.

raWfodog52d ago

Good news for when, or If, I ever play it. It’s waaay down on my backlog list lol.

P_Bomb52d ago

I like these 60fps patches. Hoping they’ll do Ghost Recon Wildlands someday.

Yi-Long52d ago

Kudos to Ubisoft for once again going back to older titles and then offering a nice upgrade for free. I know the company gets a lot of criticism, in quite a few cases understandable and justified, but in this area of contintued post-launch support for their SP games, they deserve some credit.

Ubisoft Removes Nudity in Silent Far Cry 4 Update (New Info: Changes Reverted)

Update: Ubisoft has acknowledged that the Japanese version of the game, which includes regional censorship, was mistakenly released globally. The company says it has reverted these changes in the game's worldwide branch.

Ubisoft has quietly removed nudity from Far Cry 4 in a recent update, sparking speculation about Tencent’s growing influence on the publisher.

You can murder, mame, and viciously attack people, but anything that deals with showing a body in a natural state whether for titillation or narrative, is some truly terrible thing. We are so weird with our puritan thought process. Feed our bloodlust and fuel our enjoyment for entertainment of simulating acts of harm and murder, but god forbid you see digitized TnA. It will never make sense to me.

Rebel_Scum76d ago

tbh even if they did remove it, it doesnt matter. I dont even remember when there was nudity in the game. If it was there it was so inconsequential.

B5R76d ago

Agreed. It absolutely makes no sense

Also, even though Ubisoft reverted the changes that removed nudity, there's the bigger issue of developers being able to make large changes to the game you paid for whenever they want.

Stellar Blade comes to mind. This is why buying physical is the way to go.

Played and enjoyed Far Cry, Far Cry 3 and 4 campaigns .

-Foxtrot463d ago

4 wasn’t so bad

Pagan Min was pretty entertaining

Skuletor463d ago

Yeah, 4 was good, was hard choosing which Golden Dawn member to side with, when they were both pieces of sh!t.
I've beaten all the main entries except 2 and 6, ended up uninstalling 6 to download something else instead.

Profchaos463d ago

I'd love a far cry pack with the original PC game (not the half assed port on ps360) instincts, predator even a port of far cry 2 to modern consoles back when these games had their own identity and weren't far cry 3 cut and pastel

Demetrius463d ago

Still one of my most favorite franchises along with assassins creed

banger88463d ago (Edited 463d ago )

Same here, I don't know why these games get so much hate. I've thoroughly enjoyed every single one of them, with only a couple of exceptions. I wish they'd hurry up and announce Far Cry 7. The only thing I'm concerned about is the rumoured time limit.
