Celebrating 20 Years of Remedy

New gameplay demo of Quantum Break at Gamescom after skipping E3.

jay23243d ago

Oh man, my xbox ones getting dusty! need the games this year really. looks like halo 5 and if its a long wait rise of tombe raider only this year for me

DarkOcelet3243d ago (Edited 3243d ago )

I dont have an Xone but they have some great games this year.

Forza 6 sounds incredible with tons of contents it seems.

Rise Of the tomb Raider will be epic, thats for sure.

Halo 5... Its Halo, nuff said.

Fable Legends looks good too and its free to play so thats great.

Also Ori and the blind forest was excellent (Played it on PC) so its a great addition too and should not be missed.

And there is the 3rd party games so there is more than enough for you to play.

LexHazard793243d ago

You're drying up like a slug when you pour salt on it...

OpieWinston3243d ago

I feel like more studios should follow Remedys model of holding off showing demos until you've got it ready to be shown.

Rather than touching up the demo they can focus on the main game. Especially with all the people who cry downgrade.

Gazondaily3243d ago

Well tbh, when they first showed off QB in cinematic form, we were told that it was all in-engine and that bit looked more impressive than the gameplay segment. Early days I know but it looked downgraded to me.

CYCLEGAMER3243d ago (Edited 3243d ago )

@Septic
Ummm when did they say that? I was always under the impression that, the demo's they were showing were all CG. The only gameplay we saw was the 16-20 min demo.

Why would anyone be calling "downgrade" when we only got one gameplay video?

Gazondaily3243d ago

Just in terms of the general aesthetic. They did say it was running in engine and it looked damn fine. The actual gameplay and character models look a bit weaker. Early days though. Im not saying that it is proof of a downgrade btw.

3-4-53243d ago

* Yea or like Falcom where they waited until they were finished with Sen to announce it.

I want the minimal time from announcement/reveal to me actually playing the game.

DarkOcelet3243d ago

My favorite Remedy game is Alan Wake. One of the best games i have played last gen.

We need a sequel for it.

hello123243d ago

Haha that video was great loved the Max Payne impersonation.

Skipping E3 they did that last year as well.

ksnm03243d ago

It seems like so many new games are being revealed.
I think it's a good thing.

spicelicka3243d ago

Holy shit! I just realized the original Max Payne character was modeled after Sam Lake!

christian hour3243d ago

Yup, they used a photo of his face for the original model :) He even shows up in Alan Wake on a tv show and they ask him to do it XD

I'm surprised so many people do not know about this, I thought it was common knowledge at this point.

christian hour3243d ago

"impersonation"? Not an impersonation at all, he IS the original max payne, thats his face on the model ;) Awesome that he thought us how to do it :D Love that bit in alan wake where he's been interviewed on a tv show and sam lake is one of the other guests and they ask him to "do the face".

15 Xbox Games That Should Make the Multiplatform Jump

While there’s likely already a list behind closed doors, one can still speculate and offer logical suggestions for titles new and old that should find their way into the PlayStation and Switch libraries.

GamerRN39d ago

Single A games and live service games. Those make sense

S2Killinit39d ago

None of it makes sense. But its happening.

Ps5conehead39d ago

That’s up to Microsoft they want return on there investment. From buying up those publishers. That’s what there in business for. And they made a mistake putting day one exclusive on game pass. So now Microsoft wants to profit any way they can.its called buisness . Just like Sony putting games on pc a year are two after ps5 launch.
So if they can make money off PlayStation and Nintendo. They will do that. And I bet soon real soon they will release some aaa exclusives .and I bet one day it will be same day release

TheEroica38d ago

Sony gamers begging for Xbox games.... Who would've thunk it?

BISHOP-BRASIL38d ago

Yeah, because random site off the internet represents all Sony gamers, they have the letter of attorney and all...

S2Killinit38d ago

Lol what a spin. You dizzy?

AsunaYuukiTheFlash38d ago (Edited 38d ago )

We don’t care about shovelwares. Get that junk out of PS5

StormSnooper38d ago

More like MS begging to put their games on PlayStation.

TheEroica37d ago

Keep begging Sony gamers!

Friendlygamer39d ago

Some of these seem to be exclusive for lack of enthusiasm of the publisher rather than because of deals. A lot of cool indies skip ps for some reason like katana zero, el paso, elsewhere and gunbrela

S2Killinit39d ago

Even more indies skip xbox. We know that right?

Friendlygamer39d ago

Quality over quantity, Microsoft got some really interesting and curated niche games on their machines, maybe in part because of gamepass

S2Killinit38d ago

Quality and MS are not things you bring up in same sentence.

shinoff218339d ago (Edited 39d ago )

Alot of indies skip xbox to. It goes round and round. Personally I think your off base on that but no need to have the argument.

Friendlygamer38d ago

Between katana zero, valheim, Battletech, el passo... I don't feel off base. maybe ps got a million of light novel games that will never release on Xbox but like I've said, I'm talking about niche games highlights, the 10%.

  Heck, it's probably thanks to Microsoft that the s.t.a.l.k.e.r games came to console ps included, meanwhile Sony backwards compatibility continues to be extremely anemic.

And I'm sure most ps5 users are happy to ignore these games and just play wathever new 3rd person action game is trending but it's cool that Microsoft gives some love to smaller audiences and software preservation

shinoff218338d ago

Again your off base just to be snide. All it's showing though is your ignorance.

One light novels wtf is that even. Ps has plenty of pretty damn good indies.

Speaking of indies and ms being responsible. You know F.I.S.T. of course you do alot of you guys just support gamepass. Well here's a history of Sony being responsible for helping indies. Look up the China project from Sony.

Lastly lol your ignorance showing again. Sony has plenty of games. Personally third person is better then first anyway but that's besides the point. Sony gets so many games that xbox doesn't get because yall don't support the games. Jrpgs being a great example. I personally am not into every Sony first party game. Alot of us aren't. On the other side you don't get to eat often so you gobble up everything. Me personally God of War not my cup, etc. For me I'm into jrpgs and ms just can't touch Sony on those. Again because the Xbox base doesn't support it. Devs dont wanna waste their time or money. Hit me up when falcom develops a game over there.

Speaking of third person narrative games. Aren't yall drooling over hellblade 2. The first one was Sony exclusive at one point. Another not my cup game. Showing we don't have to fall in line and agree we love everything Sony puts out. The facts are they sell though unlike elsewhere(not nintendo)

StormSnooper38d ago

You are same person as GamerRN, yes?

Abnor_Mal39d ago

They really think PlayStation fans would want to play Redfall? Pfft.

Personally nothing on that list would be any game I’d want to play.

TwoPicklesGood39d ago

I’d absolutely love Hellblade 2, Palworld, and Quantum Break on ps5 as I’m sure tons of others would too. There’s nothing wrong with wanting games from another console and its sad that people try to act like they aren’t interested in them.

shinoff218338d ago

While indont agree with the games. I agree with the point. Your not wrong.

DarXyde39d ago

Sunset Overdrive makes very good sense. Palworld might.

Don't know about the others. Hellblade II does make sense given the original launched on PS4 first. Quantum Break was a massive letdown for me. I absolutely hated the whole TV show thing and I don't think anyone should have to relive that on modern hardware.

Now that Remedy owns Control, it’s time to reclaim Quantum Break

Alan Wake 2 studio Remedy Entertainment has reclaimed the rights to Control, and now sci-fi hit Quantum Break deserves the same treatment.

Totally agree with that especially when Quantum Break has several references to Alan Wake and Alan Wake make allusions to QB.
I do believe that MS and Remedy can work things out and MS has usually been nice to devs and publishers regarding IP.

Obscure_Observer55d ago

They can't "reclaim" what was never theirs.

Petebloodyonion55d ago

I’m sure we can settle for purchase from MS the IP.

Lightning7755d ago

MS is not doin anything with it. Plus they're doing a multiverse of their own so Remedy needs the IP.

If MS wants to have exclusive let it be timed for 6 months then go to other platforms. MS seems to be, let's say, generous with some if their games as of late.

Or have QB2 be multiplat from the jump, put it on GP. Keeping QB2 as an exclusive is kinda weird these days.

Obscure_Observer54d ago (Edited 54d ago )

@Petebloodyonion

"I’m sure we can settle for purchase from MS the IP."

Good luck

@Lightning77

"MS is not doin anything with it."

Japan Studio is dead nd Sony isn´t doing anything with Bloodborne either! Yet I can 100% guarantee that there´s a far bigger demand for a sequel, remake or even a remaster for that game from both PS5 and PC gamers.

That been said, why don´t you ask Sony tol sell the IP to Fromsoftware now that according to rumors, they bought Elden Ring from Bandai?

ZwVw55d ago (Edited 55d ago )

Reclaim? That would mean that they actually owned the ip at one point, which they never did (MS always has). Apples & oranges. Remedy always owned the Control ip (just not the publishing), as they have with Alan Wake.

About as likely as them getting the Max Payne rights from Rockstar.

mastershredder55d ago (Edited 55d ago )

Sending you game to a publisher does not mean they get "rights to own it " unless that was part of the contract (monetary/ strategic reasons). 505 was the publisher they worked with to publish and distribute it, it dos not mean that 505 flat out "owned" anything, clearly they did have a special arrangement that made them open to limit their publishing rights. and so here we are and big whoop

Jingsing55d ago (Edited 55d ago )

Yeah get Quantum Break PS5, only if you put it on disc with all the associated movie material.

isarai55d ago

I mean they got the Alan Wake IP back from MS, so I feel like they could get QB back as well

15 Games That Like to Play With Your Mind

GB: "Some games reduce stress while others like to play with your mind."

banger88352d ago

15 games on FIFTEEN pages? That's a NO from me.

Superliminal
Antichamber
Manifold Garden
Portal & Portal 2
The Stanley Parable
Monument Valley
Gorogoa
Thumper
Inscryption
Q.U.B.E. 2
Darq
Quantum Break
Perspective
Inside
The Swapper

IamTylerDurden1352d ago (Edited 352d ago )

I think Inscryption is the best game on that list. PT and Returnal i would offer. Returnal deserves a spot over some of the listed games. Especially after chapter 3. Maybe even Alice MR? Death Stranding? Kojima all together. To much smaller degree Dead Space. I'm spitballing.

I didn't play Thumper enough to see beyond the visual spectacle. Curious choice.

SullysCigar351d ago (Edited 351d ago )

I'd add FEAR and RE7 (when Ethan starts getting visions, especially in the boat) to that list.

Edit: and Here They Lie

Petebloodyonion351d ago

What no Eternal Darkness on the list?

BrainSyphoned351d ago

Only makes me think of gatcha loot crate game specifically built to play your mind into becoming an addict.
