During their coverage of Wondercon 2018 Skewed and Reviewed came upon a new arcade game which is updated version.of the Arcade classic .  The game uses character designs from the pending movie and from the video looks like a good update of the classic.

I used to love this game.. Still have it on saturn

Garethvk2222d ago

It was interesting to play. It moves fast but we could not attack and eat one another. I also was not able to eat any of the people but we did level the town.

Tross2222d ago

I might see that movie for the lols, but I'm not expecting much since Rampage isn't much of a story game. You play as a creature and smash buildings. That pretty much sums it up. What next, the Centipede movie?

crazychris41242222d ago

They already did. Its called Human Centipede, good enough to get several sequels. Thank me later.

Tross2222d ago

Wait....what? I was joking, but that's for real? I wouldn't think there would be enough material for one movie, lol. Now I'm curious.

Garethvk2219d ago

Yes but without the Mushrooms and Trac Ball it was not the same.

Garethvk2221d ago

They are trying to show how the creatures got big, what the good guys did to save the people and cities, and so on.

Tross2221d ago

I suppose there's that. I don't think anyone was clamouring for that part of the story to be told, but that's about all they can tell. For a game series built on simple arcade style fun, forgive me for not thinking of the backstory, or the people involved. What's next? The Paperboy movie that goes into depth about the lives of the paperboy and those he serves, and the trials and tribulations he overcomes on the job? Don't tell me that exists too.

Garethvk2221d ago

Paperboy the movie would be great. Except people do not get daily papers like they used to. It would have to be set in the 80s.

Garethvk2219d ago

That movie is not based on a game but rather a nutcase turning people into a Human Centipede.

crazychris41242222d ago

Game looks worse than the movie. If you want a good destruction game than get X Morph Defense.

Tross2222d ago

Rampage: The Movie: The Game, lol. It worked so well when Street Fighter did it. /s Critical and audience reception will dictate whether this one's a flop though, so I'll reserve judgment for now.

Garethvk2221d ago

I will say the trailer looked better than expected. Almost a Jumanji vibe to it. The game moved a bit slow at times then fast. The creatures would move slowly then have fast speed when attacking and such. The levels did not end they just kept progressing. It was an arcade cabinet and control sytem as there was only a joystick and a button so hopefully we will see more but they did not say if it was built just for the show or if it was going to Dave and Busters and Tilt, etc.

Garethvk2219d ago

This is the game that pretty much started the mass destruction arcade games. I will check the one you suggested out.

PlayStation Doesn't Need a Dedicated PC Store Launcher

With all the PlayStation games that are now coming to PC, is it time for Sony to release a dedicated PC launcher?

thorstein3d ago

No, and they already solved any need with the overlay that's coming.

Vits3d ago

Unless they are trying to kill their recently created PC business, I would advise against opening a dedicated PC store. It's an extremely hard endeavor, and people, in general, are very comfortable with Steam. Even Epic, with their billions of dollars invested, is still struggling to find a foothold, and they have Fortnite.

just_looken1d 23h ago (Edited 1d 23h ago )

Money is one thing security is another but again millions have 0 knowledge past 2020.

Epic store for years struggled with a shopping cart/account theft/credit card theft

Rockstar launcher/store to this day over 5 years later still has horrific user interface security flaws lost account's and stolen CC

Then you got that activision need phone number oh we lost it launcher

The crown jewel is the ea launcher/store ea app 3 yrs old still has hundreds of threads were people lost games/accounts/game access or just straight up crashes.

Edit" Oh ubi launcher were you buy a game that may or may not be there again or work and the launcher 5yrs old still has no 4K support if you launch it on a 4k screen there is a high chance it will just crash.

Can tell who ever put this together is not all that clued up on pc gaming.

It's just a known fact. The PC gaming community prefer Steam and Steam alone. They don't like different launchers. I personally don't mind them. But majority just stick with steam. Hence why EA and Ubisoft went back to on releasing on steam and why Microsoft release games on steam as people hated buying from the windows store.

The only other launchers that I imagine are doing ok is GOG due to being drm free and epic games due to the free games every week. Sony shouldn't release any sort of pc launcher n

Nitrowolf22d ago (Edited 2d ago )

It literally says in the OP that PC gamers don't like multiple launchers lol. It even mentions Steam being the go to for gamers

Tacoboto2d ago

Title: "PlayStation Doesn't Need a Dedicated PC Store Launcher"

N4G: "Can tell who ever put this together is not all that clued up on pc gaming"

When you don't even read the headline...

ocelot072d ago

I read it and had a brain fart. As read the title then this "With all the PlayStation games that are now coming to PC, is it time for Sony to release a dedicated PC launcher?"

So I hold my hands up on that mistake. Rest of my comment still stands.

Giblet_Head1d 23h ago (Edited 1d 23h ago )

Steam and GOG are highly preferred because of the rich feature set. Ubisoft, Rockstar, EA, Epic etc have all set a precedent over the years for customers to instinctively expect individual publisher launchers to be so extremely half-assed that the majority simply don't want to bother dealing with what is almost an inevitable disappointment by comparison to Steam or GOG. Those publishers and their inaction or general disinterest to improve have effectively ruined any future adoption to be taken seriously.

Einhander19722d ago (Edited 2d ago )

This is just another ridiculous double standard article.

It's like how Microsoft can spend 20 years of making nothing but gaas and live service style games to sell microtransactions, dlc and subscriptions and get praise for doing it, but if Sony wants to make a single game like that every website under the sun is writing articles saying how Sony is anti-consumer or whatever.

derek2d ago

Yep, huge double standard look at the tortured reaction to the ps5pro, websites hyperventilating like Sony is forcing people to buy it.

just_looken1d 23h ago

Wait my xbox from 2004 has avengers gaas on it? wow your so smart

m$ Gaas started with the other companies like sony

Gamepass yes they are deep into that but its still a huge money saver sense you do not own your games then get a service like that.

Now there pc xbox launcher that is trash for years now
