Ben Rickaby debunks the ever present thought that Survival Horror games are dead. Couldn't be more false. Here's a list of newer horror games that are actually scary.
The upcoming film Alien: Romulus will include a special Easter egg that fans of the 2014 game Alien: Isolation will recognize.
I hope it’s a great Alien movie and not a mediocre one. I thought they would do a movie after Prometheus next so I’m a bit disappointed as I wanted new information but it seems to be in between previous movies. Don’t f it up please.
Resident Evil Remake titles were a massive success for Capcom. Despite the success, the company should revisit the Revelations games for a breath of fresh air.
They were ok, but I prefer the main-line entries than the Berger episodic spin-offs.
Now, if they want to do an episodic RE game give us a legit Outbreak File 3 or just remaster the last 2.
Ive not heard one person ask for Revelation remakes. They were never really that great but good enough for a spin off. I wouldn't mind a remake but it would have to be a complete overhaul. Outbreak on the other hand people have been asking to be remade forever at this point. Maybe one day 🙏
Dude I loved Outbreak and I think it’s the perfect MP game for the RE series. It’s co-op where everyone can either help each other through a chapter or everyone breaks off to solve the puzzles and meet up to finish faster and take on a boss.
None of this REsistance or whatever the last MP game was. I don’t understand why it’s a game that hasn’t been remastered or just straight ported to current-gen.
They were meh. Their current output with remakes and new games is pretty good. 5 good RE games since RE7 in 2017.
No need to dillure the brand with more RE. Especially with more Revelations which is just watered down mainline RE.
Something like outbreak would be better. Kinda wish they did a scaled-down version of outbreak with RE3, RE8 instead of REVerse and Resistance.
It's wild how this got more disagrees and agrees 🤣 This place really does have the worst takes at times
I didn’t really like the revelations games. They weren’t horrible just not good enough to interest me
I'll pass. Tried playing Revelations on two separate occasions and on two separate platforms... got bored about two hours in.
The Evil Within, Ghostwire: Tokyo and Hi-Fi Rush studio has closed its doors.
Ninja theory. Others will follow as well. The smaller studios MS owns should all be worried. Maybe MS will try and release some of their games day and date on ps5 to save some of these studios.
I can see Ninja Theory. At least Tango made a game that was reviewed well. Ninja Theory spent a lot of years to release a tech demo that didn’t do well at all.
I get it that Hellblade 2 is a boring game, but I hope they are not the next to be closed.
@repssahj
Ninja Theory is likely on the chopping block too. They released Bleeding Edge which bombed, took 4 years to release Hellbalde 2 which doesn’t seem to be doing well, and still have Project Mara in limbo. They’re high on the chopping block.
MS was likely expecting their God of War / Uncharted quality game from NT based on Heavenly Sword, Enslaved, DmC, and to an extent Hellblade 1, but NT hasn’t delivered since Hellblade 1 which was 7 years ago.
3 trillion MS is worth, yet they do this, well Phil the shit bag did. No studio needed to be let go, when you are worth this much.
Sad, but I see characters and posters of either less than average or barely average games.
Have to disagree here duder, with respect. Evil Within was a good game and the sequel was fantastic, as was HiFi Rush. I'd concede Ghostwire was pretty average but regardless, shuttering a studio which just put out MS best game in donkeys years was complete shithousery on XBox' part.
Microsoft paid 8B to buy Zenimax then fired well over 1000 people from Zenimax between the time they closed the deal and they announced these shut downs.
People talk about the 1900 they fired most recently, but that was only one wave of three sets of layoffs from their gaming division so far this generation totalling around 5000 people this generation. Not counting the dozen plus studios they canned last gen including Lionhead the original Fable developers.
By every real metric HiFi was an average game. I don't see an Evil within poster in the thumb, which is a shame, because if they threw their weight behind that IP, they might have still been around.
I don't understand how you can say it was average in every metric when it garnered the reviews it did?
P.T.
Condemned
Silent Hills games
Old RE's
Outlast
Theres more but those are the ones that come to mind.
Silent Hill
Resident Evil 2 and 3
Condemned
Sonic Boom
Amnesia: The Dark Descent
Really looking forward to SOMA!
I haven't played to many scary games, but Metro 2033 on hardcore got me scared... Esp the Librarian mission.
I would add ZombiU to that list.
