What's next?
Soldier of Fortune? Prototype?

Elit3Nick1707d ago

Would definitely love to see a new Prototype. There was huge missed opportunities as a sandbox game, not enough depth in the world to keep it interesting for long.

sourOG1707d ago

A new prototype would be awesome.

Viking_mo1707d ago

Im hoping for tenchu. I think they have one under their name unless im thinking of someone else

MadLad1707d ago

Not a big fan of Crash, but the Spyro remake was excellent, and plan on getting Tony Hawk, being the seemed to have nailed that one as well.

neutralgamer19921707d ago

No doubt Activision has handled these remasters/remakes right and even delayed when developers need extra time

Even spyro which received 2 out of 3 games digital got a reprint and now all 3 games are on disk

Soldier of Fortune
A new a spyro would be nice

What these publishers don't get is when you make quality games gamers will support

Should have been a console game, right now would have been a good time for a new Guitar Hero.

Time to revive all those popular franchises that are easy to monetize with micro transactions and nothing is easier than music games where they’ll charge you $5- 10 for 2- 5 songs.

Top of the line remake from 2018 you could have picked up for under 5 bucks.

I'm serious though games awesome and was a highlight in a very packed year but let's not overstate it's value 6 years on.

I wonder why they're doing slow roll out of ABK stuff? It's been a year I wonder why the slow roll out.

Fishy Fingers213d ago

I'm sure it'll slowly get added. Its constant content they can add and I imagine in the hopes it will get people to maintain their sub. Drop it all in one chunk might boost numbers for a bit but unlikely to keep people long term.

Lightning77213d ago

Similar to Bethesda stuff. They release the full slate on GP and I guess it didn't do as well for them. I'm hoping they're remastering the Marvel Ultimate Alliance games as well as others.

InUrFoxHole213d ago

Never played the series. Gonna give it a go. GP is a great service.

The_Hooligan212d ago

I played the original trilogy on my cousin's PS1 back in the day and they were amazing games. I picked up the remake last year when it was on sale on PSN but haven't gone back yet. But if this is your first time playing it, you will have a great time.

InUrFoxHole211d ago

Jesus. I remember the ps1. I remember being baffled by how something so powerful could fit in that little console lol

Good for persons who are subscribed to the game pass, but will it be 30 fps, or is it getting a boost?

I bought the game on PS4 but stopped because the game offered little to no challenge. I dropped it and picked it up again on PS5 a few months ago. That was when I realized that it was locked to 30 fps and uninstalled it.

It would be great if Microsoft could find some way to release an update to set both Spyro and Crash Team racing to 60 fps and beyond.

Profchaos213d ago (Edited 213d ago )

It seems unlikely that it would get further enhancements at this stage a 2018 release that was already enhanced for the one X native 4k from memory. Also the animation work and motion blur used did slot to make the 30fos gameplay feel responsive and smooth to its credit compared to other 30fps games with significantly worse input lag like yooka laylee which iirc on PS4 pro felt horrible to play with a control delay vs the PC which felt snappy.

If you stopped because of the lack of challenge I don't think 60 will suddenly change the way you play it games extremely simple and was built around a early 3d exploration framework that targeted families so difficulty was quite low

Profchaos213d ago

Hasn't this been on gamepass for a while now

Activision kills ambitious H2M Modern Warfare 2 mod one day before its release

Stay classy, Activision.

TGG_overlord300d ago

That was a really low move Activision...

TheNamelessOne300d ago

The fact that they let this go until the last minute, making use of the extra sales they were getting from those excited for the multiplayer mod, is about as slimy as it gets.

Einhander1972299d ago

Whenever something with one of these developers Microsoft bought if they do something bad it's always the developers but if they do something good it's always Microsoft.

Microsoft owns Activision, Microsoft shut down this project.
