Microsoft is BSing with the demos. Too Human was up before the event, so all we've received is Tales of Vesperia. A little boy named Karol & a dude with long, purple, girl hair. I know they aren't coming soon, but where's the RE5, Fable 2, even Brother's in Arms demos at?

Grown Folks Talk6176d ago

Who would have guessed? I take it you are happy with getting 1 demo from the event in 3 days. It was the same as last year. Show Splinter Cell, Fable 2, COD4, ect, & we get none of those demos. If you are going to claim to bring it home, then do like the Rock says, & just bring it.

Give us FO3 with all the dlc remastered like ESO. Load times faster, quality of life improvements, gun play improvements

I believe it shouldn't just be graphical they should make improvements where they can to make the game better. A simple face lift isn't what's needed

ZeekQuattro51d ago

Still my favorite one. I remember getting a digital copy of FO3 when I got FO4(XBO). It was nice to finally play a stable version of the game. Then when I got a Series S it was an even better expierence. Quick resume and FPS boost made it feel like a whole new game. Updated gunplay would be very welcome though. One of the few things FO4 did better.

New Vegas and Morrowind should have been first!

Christopher59d ago

Fairly certain we all know that New Vegas isn't getting anything because it's not a Bethesda developed game.

OMGitzThatGuy59d ago

MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it.

***MS owns both devs, if they want it, a 3rd party will make it. ***

I think the issue is that it's not a Bethesda developed game, not that MS owns both. This is more about Todd.

RaidenBlack58d ago (Edited 58d ago )

Yep ... Todd doesn't like getting bettered within his own IP scope.
I still think of the Elder Scrolls spin-off Obsidian pitched similar to New Vegas, but Todd rejected.

RaidenBlack58d ago (Edited 58d ago )

Replayed NV more than FO3 ... so I appreciate the FO3 remaster more.
For NV, I'd much prefer a sequel or a spinoff from Obsidian.

FTLmaster59d ago

Got a soft spot for Fallout 3, so I'd be down to play this.

-Foxtrot59d ago

It's crazy New Vegas wasn't worked on first to launch alongside Fallout Season 2.

They could have added all the cut content they had planned but didn't have enough development time to add, possibly even expand on it a little more. For example, have the Vegas strip as one big hub over being chopped into smaller sections we have to keep loading into.

neutralgamer199258d ago

Would love a complete remake or sequel with enough resources

Abnor_Mal58d ago

The only Fallout game I’ve played, PS3 had to keep stopping every few minutes to save. Next thing I knew the credits were rolling and I never did any side quest. I never replayed the game because of all the bugs the game had.

Yui_Suzumiya58d ago (Edited 58d ago )

I've played Fallout 3 more than any game. I lost count many years ago of how many times I finished it. It was my first Platinum trophy. But yeah, it was buggy on PS3 at launch before it got properly patched.

anast58d ago

They are only remaking their games that have been streamlined.

Gears of War 2 Remake was in development “10 years ago” but was scrapped by Xbox

Ayi Sanchez: "Old work. I did this 10 years ago now as part of a material test for a remaster of Gears of War 2 that never happened."

RaidenBlack96d ago

lolz,
hope we're still getting Gears 2 & 3 for PC, as per rumors

Cacabunga95d ago

Xbox always taking the right decisions

XiNatsuDragnel96d ago

Wow... just wow Microsoft sigh at it again 😑

Lightning7795d ago

Weird, in mean they had no studios to make anything really new so there's a part of me thats kinda glad they scrapped it. If they released this back then it would of gotten ridiculed for remakes and remastering stuff. Now they have new and interesting games so the collection is harmless.

CrimsonWing6995d ago

Geez, Xbox, something like that I would’ve bought Day 1. Great business decisions over there.

lucasnooker95d ago

10 years ago it wasn’t such a big deal. The games were only a few years old by that point

CrimsonWing6995d ago

Gears of War: Ultimate Edition came out in 2015 (essentially 10 years ago), having a follow-up to that on the then next-gen console would’ve absolutely been welcomed, in my book.

LoveSpuds95d ago

I can only assume the the Gears of War Remaster flopped so they decided to scrap the other remakes?

Seems short sighted to me as I really enjoyed the 1st remaster. Regardless, I'll snap up some remakes to play on my PS5.
