No Man's Sky Beats All AAA Title and became the Most Anticipated Game of 2016

We have already talked a lot about No Man’s Sky, with clearly good reason – they’re attempting something which nobody has done before. Recently, the online retailer Amazon recently held an E3 2016 Gaming Bundle Prize Draw, which asked participants to vote for their most anticipated games of 2016.

It was my most anticipated game of 2015, but I couldn't sustain the hype another year.

JEECE2848d ago (Edited 2848d ago )

I'm absolutely sure it will be. It's just gotten to the point where they've been teasing it for so long and then yanking it away that I'm done being excited until it is installed on my PS4. Which I'm not convinced will actually be on August 9 until it happens that day.

Pongwater2848d ago

"they've been teasing it for so long and then yanking it away..."

If I'm not mistaken it was delayed once after it got a release date, and the delay will end up being less than two months. Not exactly an ordeal.

XisThatKid2847d ago

I was super hyped, I lost it....I'm rehyped when it was appropriate and I'm DEFINITELY hyped now.

uth112848d ago

I've tempered my expectations. I can see how it will be great, or how it could get dull fast. We'll see how it turned out

rezzah2847d ago

I was hyped, but like everything I don't remain in a constant state of hype until the game releases.

This way i don't fall out of interest in the game if bad news is presented or give in due to the wait.

IRetrouk2848d ago

Honestly cant wait for this game, although im going to be going away from the centre.

feraldrgn2848d ago

I was actually thinking the same, initially I'm going to be going as far down as I can into the planet I start on, then I might go to a planet further away from the center rather than towards.

It all depends on how resources work, if we get less materials or don't get new ones by going outward, then I guess that stops my plans.

IRetrouk2848d ago

Yep gonna be fun finding out

fatsodubmo2848d ago

Really dont understand the hype around this game...

TheCommentator2848d ago

It's not a AAA killer, that's for sure.

uth112848d ago

But neither was Minecraft, and that is more popular than any single AAA game, so AAA isn't the end all and be all.

Big_Game_Hunters2848d ago

@uth Minecraft is AAA. Do you know what AAA means?

Pongwater2848d ago

Shall we take wagers on how many AAA games this year will sell more and review better than NMS?

cfc832848d ago

It hyped because it's on ps4.

JEECE2848d ago

Lol everyone was hyped when it was announced in 2013. Xbox kids just magically realized it looked "boring and empty" when it was announced as PS4/PC only.

Liqu1d2848d ago

And PC. Just admit you're upset because it isn't on Xbox.

uth112848d ago

But Xbox and Windows are the same platform now, they said. So of course they can play this on Xbox, right? Must be all those Nintendo fans hating on this.. /s

krypt19832848d ago

Lol its coming to xbox is has never been announced as a ps4/pc exclusive it was revealed as a first to console on ps4 it is definitely a timed exclusive 6months to a year and it will be on xbox which I really don't care. I just hope everybody has there expectations in check because I don't think this game will live up to the hype I hope it does though ...

Goldby2847d ago

@krypt1983

No Man Sky was initially releasing on ps4 as a timed 6 month exclusive before releasing on PC. Now its a console exclusive to Playstation 4 and PC, Not Winfows 10

Mr Lahey2848d ago

Lmfao. Is it really that hard to understand? Or do you know nothing about this game?

cfc832848d ago

I know what it is. An exploration survival game. Nobody hypes up the solus project or elite dangerous, so why the fuss over this game.

itsmebryan2848d ago

I know what you mean. I don't see what's the big deal. I will wait for reviews before I get it for my PC. Maybe after being disappointed with Elite: Dangerous I'm a little more cusious. I even bought a new flight stick for it.

realplu2848d ago

That's okay, it's not for everyone.

CIA_BOSS2847d ago

It is just another boring kiddy game with a pointless idea.

vega2752848d ago

Picking up my copy on steam. Can't wait.

Str8Chaos742847d ago

LOL getting disagrees for getting the best version. Only on this fanboy website.

Goldby2847d ago (Edited 2847d ago )

Or from people aho have it on ps4 and no pc. The ps4 version is the best for them. Aka disagree.
Ps4 is better for me too my friends are on ps4

vega2752847d ago (Edited 2847d ago )

Why would anyone not get the pc version since it will have mods, plus better graphics.

The same people that are hitting the disagree are the same one that will comment on why get a xbox one when you can get the games on pc. But get mad when you buy the pc version of games over the ps4 version.

@ Goldberg

I don't own a ps4. So the PC version is the better version since mods will be available once the modding community gets involved. the ps4 version won't have mods or better graphics compared to PC

Besides everybody has a gaming pc on this site. Why would anyone need a ps4 to play this game when you getting the superior version on pc

Pongwater2847d ago (Edited 2847d ago )

Overly sensitive, Vega?

I don't game on PC, therefore I'll get NMS on PS4. It has nothing to do with hating or otherwise attempting to downplay some other platform. My PC is simply used for other things.

If you would like me to downplay XB I certainly can, but just remember you brought it up.

vega2752847d ago (Edited 2847d ago )

@pongwater

Me..... Overly Sensitive??????

Why would i be when your clearly bother by my statement. It's my understanding that everyone has a Gaming PC on this site and in the world, So My question is the same as any sony fan ask in a xbox thread. why would i need a console to play the better version on PC. that's not a downplay. That's me giving the question back. Why you so sensitive about that. Because it's on PC and will be the better version with Mods and Graphic with everyone having (blank) Tflop cards? is it because I get to play it without a PS4?

Regardless. more people get to play this game which is the point And because I pre-ordered it on steam shouldn't warrent disagrees since I am supporting the game and the Dev who made it.

UgoGalimbertti2848d ago

Mine are (not just for 2016, as the list has Andromeda too):
1- No Man's Sky
2- Mafia 3
3- Ghost Recon Wildlands
4- Watch Dogs 2
5- Final Fantasy XV
6- Mass Effect Andromeda
7- Horizon Zero Dawn
8- Battlefield 1
9- Gran Turismo Sport
10- Forza Horizon 3

Notes:
*I only own a PS4 and an average pc, so Forza would be higher if I had an Xbox
*The release date has influence in the anticipation (I see it more like a list of games and the order I would most likely buy them)
*Yes, I love Open Worlds lol

Livecustoms2848d ago

your not hyped for call of duty : Infinite Micro transactions ? xD

iceman062848d ago

Okay...I laughed!!!😅

s45gr322848d ago

The only games I am looking forward are:

Ghost Recon Wildlands
No Man's Sky
P.A.M.E.L.A
Deux Ex Mankind Divided
For Honor

Fallout 4's 'next gen' update is over 14 gigs, breaks modded saves, & doesn't change much at all

We were expecting problems with mod support, but there are a lot of other issues.

isarai11h ago

Wow what the actual hell 🤣🤣🤣

just_looken10h ago

This is why you get the GOG version on gog you can select the version of the game to download.

On pc fallout 4 fallout new vegas and skyrim are all broken on steam because they all got the same "next gen" update.

Skyrim dec 2023
https://www.pcgamer.com/sky...

Can not find new vegas but anyone that modded it knows the script extender there was also broken

Valkyrye9h ago

Not accidental, they want modders to stop modding their older games to force them to mod Shitfield.

just_looken7h ago

There doing the same on starfield with a mods store and blocking mods

There goal is like blizzard and what they did with fallout 76 you make mods they can sell and you become a slave.

On skyrim they have "trusted" mod devs now basically a badge that lets your mod on the store you get a crumb of the sale when someone buys it.

Inverno5h ago

lol to the disagrees, the last Skyrim update broke mods too. They've been trying to kill mods to monetize them in creation club for years, it's not a stretch that they purposely put out patches just to break free mods.

porkChop4h ago

The disagrees are from people who have common sense. They aren't trying to kill mods. Most mods for any game will break with a new update because they rely on files/code that have been changed. This isn't new. Even with Bethesda this would happen way before the creation club. Mod support is literally one of the things that got Bethesda to where they are, and they're one of the only devs that releases comprehensive mod tools for each of their games.

Chocoburger5h ago

Over 14 GBs and doesn't change much at all? What? Taking up that much drive space for a pathetic 'remastering' is shameful.

Par for Bethesda.

Aussiesummer4h ago

It's not a remaster, it's a next gen update.

badz1493h ago

LOL people are actually expecting massive improvements or something? From Bethesda?? the same people who released Skyrim multiple times and the all look like shit? THAT Bethesda? are people for real?

Profchaos3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

The ps5 version doesn't change a ton but from my small playtime it's enough to make me want to replay it just to have it running at 60.

A side note to this my PS4 version no longer boots after it's "update" so I guess that's what it feels like to own a Bethesda game on PC

Hopefully Microsoft will go back to the original story line and get away from that woke nonsense from the last Gears game Gears of Woke! But were talking about Microsoft so all the betting money is on more of the same woke nonsense.

Sciurus_vulgaris3h ago

The Locust trilogy concluded with Gears of War 3. I don’t get how Gears 4 and 5 are “woke” .

ocelot070m ago

Just couldn't get into Gears 5. Gears 4 was pretty fun though.
