Review: Anthem | Blast Away the Game Review

Blast Away the Game Review Writes: "Anthem, problems aside, is a solid game, it’s beautiful, it’s organic and it’s one of the most enjoyable experiences I’ve had with an open world title since Assassin’s Creed Odyssey as of recent and stays true to the values and traditions BioWare has been known for since their establishment."

Right on.Love this game

ThatDudeMunkee1930d ago

Thanks for the feedback, Kuma! Several of us on the team are still enjoying it. Sure, it has its flaws, but it's fun and it's definitely getting a hefty amount of patches rather quickly; something you don't see all that often.

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.

JEECE186d 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."

RiseNShine186d 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.

ChasterMies186d ago

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

--Onilink--186d 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

BlackCountryBob186d 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

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

chantii_mmohaven529d ago

yep this is truly a b*tthurt list :/

MadLad529d ago

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

Knushwood Butt530d ago

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

Cueil528d ago

the game wasn't bad though

RavenWolfx529d ago

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

blackblades529d 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

monkey602529d 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.

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

P_Bomb1054d 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.

solideagle1054d ago (Edited 1054d 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 :)

shinoff21831054d ago

Check out earthlock. Its pretty good

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

Aloymetal1054d ago

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

LoveSpuds1054d 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.

GhostofHorizon1054d ago

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

ElvisHuxley1054d ago (Edited 1054d ago )

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

Hellcat20201054d ago

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

Servbot411054d ago

They abandoned Anthem. Typical EA.

CobraKai1054d ago

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

BioShockGX1054d ago

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

ElvisHuxley1052d 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 "#$&&%.

Servbot411054d ago

BDO sucks. Only good for the character creator.

anast1054d ago

Is the combat worth it?

Phoenixryu1054d 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.

phoenixwing1054d 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

anast1053d ago

Thanks. Is there an alternative to ESO?

phoenixwing1053d ago

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

EvertonFC1054d ago

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