I would love a modern take on Manhunt! I still play this game on my Pro!

MASTER_RAIDEN2290d ago

OH. MY HEART.
Manhunt has got to be one of my favorite games of all time. Please let this lead to something.

ULTp0ltergeist2290d ago (Edited 2290d ago )

Battle Royale genre?

zerocarnage2290d ago (Edited 2290d ago )

Just nooooo, and I mean that with my heart, that'd be the worst mistake for take two to do a pubg style manhunt that would be me saying no buy for me anyhow..

MellauxGMNG2290d ago

That could actually be a pretty good take on a multiplayer aspect if they decided to have multiplayer. Drop a load of people into a city and you've gotta stealth and silent murder your way for the win. Scavenging plastic bags and such for silent executions lol

gangsta_red2289d ago

That it actually a good idea and would fit in with the theme of Manhunt perfectly.

I wouldn't want huge maps though, keep it confined and even throw in AI antagonists that also hunt you as well as the other players you have to find and fight.

Hell yeah! Calling the board members together now!

Profchaos2290d ago

Loved the original games but due to the jump in graphics I think it will be too much for the ratings boards to allow unfortunately. They already lost a fortune on manhunt 2 as it was censored and still banned around the world

UltraNova2290d ago

That! This isnt the early 2000s anymore. If a game like Manhunt were to be released today the world would go batshit crazy ever it.

Maybe they needed to renew the IPs license or something..

Embracer CEO Lars Wingefors: "I deserve a lot of criticism."

Embracer CEO demonstrates a masterclass in mental gymnastics in latest interview.
"I'm sure I deserve a lot of criticism, but I don't think my team or companies deserve all the criticism. I could take a lot of that blame myself. But ultimately I need to believe in the mission," he said.

Microsoft should have left them stay 3rd party

GamerRN10h ago

If they are let go, they can be whatever they want. They ARE 3rd party now... 🤦

Barlos8h ago

Yeah, they're also jobless.

GamerRN1h ago

They can form a company if they want, they are just as jobless as if "Microsoft had left them as 3rd party".

"MIcrosoft leaves Bethesda do what they know how to do best" ... close! Oh the irony ....

Bethesda France was made up of roughly 15 people... they couldn't of being doing much

Bethesda France mainly did publishing and marketing within the region

blacktiger10h ago

that's a shame for you to say that, i'm sure Elite loves hearing what you just said.

Profchaos12h ago(Edited 12h ago)

Bethesda France focused on publishing and marketing in the region. And 15 people lost their jobs as part of the closure.

I wonder if this is part of Microsoft's strategy to abandoned physical media or possibly gamepass advertising makes their roles redundant you don't need to market a game as hard when the majority of players get the game as part of a sub which already promoted upcoming games

Tacoboto12h ago

It's France too, there's a high likelihood only 1-2 people on the team even had an Xbox.

Profchaos12h ago

Possibly guven all the leaks we know the Xbox brand is really struggling in the region.

Yi-Long9h ago

Well, if your consoles and games are barely found in any stores any more, of course you're gonna struggle finding consumers ...

XiNatsuDragnel11h ago

Tbh Microsoft I think Bethesda being 3rd party same with Activision would probably more competitive than thus scenario imo

Profchaos9h ago(Edited 9h ago)

I think it would have been better for all parties really especially gamers

TheColbertinator10h ago

The recently purchased Activision French offices might take over all the licensing and marketing for Microsoft in France from now on.

I’m Glad Atlus & SE Changed Dates To Avoid Competing With Shadow Of The Erdtree

Saad from eXputer: "I'm glad I don't have to choose between Square Enix, Atlus, and FromSoftware due to bad release windows and Shadow of the Erdtree."

H91d 7h ago

More intelligent than guerilla games

raWfodog13h ago(Edited 13h ago)

Atlus is releasing their game one week before Erdtree, SE is releasing theirs one week after.

HZD released four days before Zelda, HFW released one week before Elden Ring.

It seems to me like they are still releasing their games too close to Erdtree.
