Anthem Really Does Look Beautiful on Xbox One X

Anthem has some fantastic Xbox One X enhancements, including native 4K rendering. As a result, it looks absolutely gorgeous.

i like it. its not perfect but just like most GaS titles, it will evolve beyond the launch. Just like Destiny. I think its just cool to hate on EA more than anything right now.

GameBoyColor1907d ago

Destiny is still trash so that's a bad comparison. Also i want to point out that bfv is still a mess. GaS is idiotic, EA is losing money, Activision just fired a crap load of people, GaS is failing these companies and they are starting to finally realize it.

UltraNova1907d ago

"GaS is failing these companies and they are starting to finally realize it."

Oh no no no, they are nowhere near done with GaaS yet.

Futureshark1907d ago

"GaS is failing these companies and they are starting to finally realize it."

Don't tell Microsoft that, their whole financial strategy seems to be based on this.

starchild1907d ago

@GameBoyColor

Everything that isn't awesome is trash right? That's the new edgelord thing to say. If it didn't get a 9 on metacritic--or maybe an 8 at a stretch--it's pure trash.

timotim1906d ago

@Futureshark

I would love to know where you're getting that from?

thesoftware7301906d ago

Kumakai, Exactly, I feel the same way.

Enjoyed my self a bunch last night.

Your comment is crap! First of all show some respect for the time, work, dedication it took for hundreds of people to craft a game like this, with incredible environnments and perfectly smooth and intuitive gameplay! Second of all If its crap then diablo and all the hack n slash games like this, cause thats what anthem is to me, are crap! So why hate anthem for the same reasons we love diablo? You are the reason developpers are scare to create new licenses, ips! So let's bash together anthem so the future will be overcrowded with REAL craps like fortnite!

fiveby91906d ago

I played the demo both weekends. It was meh. I'll wait 6 months or more before considering this game. Of the streams and videos I've seen this past week, I had expected more variety of content from Bioware.

Fluttershy771905d ago

Took a lot of people to craft most AAA games, Do we have to like them all? If the game is bad is bad, no matter how many people work on it. You are raging here but it's pointless the game sucks! Is not only IGN, everyone, every single reviewer professional or indie, big or small are giving this bad reviews... Do we have to take your word, the word of some random N4G nobody commentator over these people?
You are entitled to like it, go and play it... But I didn't and a lot of people agree with me.

gloubiglou1905d ago

do you have to take anyone's word before playing a game and even worse before liking it? my word is worth anyone else 's word by the way. And I play and love anthem because I tried it, and ignored the flow of hate to make my own opinion, as objectively as possible.

Italiano12345671907d ago

And to bad the update disabled HDR on both consoles

thrust1907d ago

They need to fix this ASAP, I want my 4k and HDR!

Hedstrom1907d ago

Anthem looks great on all consoles and especially on PC. But thats not really its problem!

AK911906d ago

Yes it does but it runs at 20 fps.

thesoftware7301906d ago

It looks amazing on my 65" 4k HDR T.V.

The game is so much fun.

While i do have a ps4, I do not play Multiplayer on it much. I'm not a fan of the PS4's UI.

Anthem Sold A Solid 5 Million Copies In Its Lifetime

The multiplayer action RPG shipped a whopping 2 million copies in its first week alone.

JEECE144d ago

A nice piece of proof-as if anymore was needed-that a game isn't automatically a success if it sells "millions of copies."

RiseNShine144d ago

I don't know if it's still possible, but if it still works, PLAY IT. It's a fantastic RPG on it's own, incredible graphics and story, well worth the Bioware name, i don't know how bad it was on release, but when i played years later it was a great single player RPG well worth playing.

ChasterMies144d ago

This a good example of why you should be hesitant to buy a game at launch.

--Onilink--144d ago

Its has been on sale multiple times for like $2-3… and even when not that aggressively dropped, it is usually in the under $10 category of any sale

BlackCountryBob144d ago

That’s good, but also worth pointing out that after maybe 3 months on sale, this game was selling for about a tenner. Reminds me a bit of Days Gone, good sales overall but only after huge discounts so unlikely to make large profit

banger88488d ago

What a shitty f***** list! Most of the games on it were great fun. Bullshit list.

chantii_mmohaven487d ago

yep this is truly a b*tthurt list :/

MadLad487d ago

I think the only one I agreed on was Anthem, and even that isn't horrendous.

Knushwood Butt488d ago

Anthem; I'd forgotten that game existed. I remember thinking the trailer was BS though; turns out I was right.

Cueil486d ago

the game wasn't bad though

RavenWolfx487d ago

"Worst big budget games" and immediately lists Genshin Impact, a game that has $4 billion in revenue.

blackblades487d ago

$3 billion and counting along with alot of users. I disagree with that being on the list. This list is just a person opinion without merit

monkey602487d ago

I havent played Genshin Impact and Mafia 3 was alright. The rest though I kind of agree with.
I loved the 1st Kane and Lynch and I could not understand how the 2nd game was as bad as it was.

Aloymetal1012d ago (Edited 1012d ago )

Including indies I’ve bought like more than 20 games, good deals all around.

P_Bomb1012d ago

I’ve overindulged too! Gonna pump the brakes on this next round. Unless there’s a PS+ discount. Need a cheap sub for my kid so I’m not always changing primaries.

solideagle1012d ago (Edited 1012d ago )

could you please suggest good indie games (which are on sale)? I love JRPGs or action RPGs but I can play almost any genre e.g. Transistor is £3.74 which I think is a steal :)

shinoff21831012d ago

Check out earthlock. Its pretty good

Old school jrpg try cosmic star heroine I really like that one

Aloymetal1012d ago

Disco elysium, man eater, inside, limbo
Dead cells, observer, to name a few

LoveSpuds1012d ago

Don't sleep on Darkest Dungeon, Child of Morta or Spiritfarer.

Although it won't be on sale, the best indie I have ever played is release in a week or so, it may be 20 quid but you have to play Hades.

GhostofHorizon1012d ago

Told my partner to stop me from browsing. We'll see how that goes, the first part of the sale already got me.

ElvisHuxley1012d ago (Edited 1012d ago )

Anthem 85% off? Thought they went free to play. Has the game gotten any better?
Edit-Nvm, it's Europe anyway.

Hellcat20201012d ago

The second phase of sales is for all regions
It's just not yet showing up in the ps store

Servbot411012d ago

They abandoned Anthem. Typical EA.

CobraKai1012d ago

I can’t believe they’re still trying to sell it

BioShockGX1012d ago

Got Anthem for $5 last year. Not a bad game for that price lol

ElvisHuxley1010d ago

Appreciate the downvotes folks. I guess merely asking a question bothers the incredibly mature users here.

I might finally go for Black Desert. I've been playing ESO (without MTing my characters) for some throw away entertainment, but the combat is so "#$&&%.

Servbot411012d ago

BDO sucks. Only good for the character creator.

anast1012d ago

Is the combat worth it?

Phoenixryu1012d ago

I tried BDO a few months ago. It's a decent game but I got bored of it pretty quickly. Combat is very action-based, it's fun but very repetitive. There are a lot of menus and most of the in-game systems are a bit more complicated than they needed to be. Some game modes won't let you buy and sell certain items until you convert to a different mode etc. Basically, the game is kind of convoluted.

phoenixwing1012d ago

The mobs barely react in bdo. You can kill half of a mob of enemies before they'll even attack. You'll basically be grinding mobs until you can fight a boss that will even react well. Don't recommend it

anast1011d ago

Thanks. Is there an alternative to ESO?

phoenixwing1011d ago

@anast I'd recommend playing the single player version of es if you haven't exhausted your playthroughs

EvertonFC1012d ago

Highly recommend the "metro saga bundle" £25 all 3 games and all DLC plus free upgrade for ps5 exodus 😊
