Adam Braunstein "Assassin's Creed Mirage is a very smart reboot, taking the series back to its roots. There are several other franchises that really need to take a leaf out of the same book."
Adam Vale of The Koalition writes: I’ve said it once, and I’ll say it again: If you are a PC gamer, then you’re eating like a king! This is true because so many publishers, such as Sony and Microsoft, have hopped on board the PC express train to Funville.
I love the Steamdeck, it's pretty great, also amazing that we can carry a handheld computer around that can play so many games.
Shaz from GL: "HBO's The Penguin proves that you don't need Batman to tell a Batman story, which makes me wonder if the same could be done for a video game."
The only reason why anyone is watching this show is because it is in the 'Batman Universe'
Yes I know it was called Gotham knights lol I said Arkham because if may as well been called that because it was basically a sequel.
Gotham Knights had zero connection to the Arkham series. Totally separate universe.
Yeah no thanks. Not a fan at all of playing as other characters like Nightwing, Robin, Harley etc. Don't even like their detective mechanics much so Gordon is out too.
Nah Batman is needed. I only want to play as Batman in the “Batman Universe “
Playing Death Stranding on a 6.9-inch screen might be funny but it isn’t the future.
No we can't "stop pretending to be impressed that the iPhone can run AAA game"
Plus its a first gen implementation. First gen implementation always has some drawbacks, as highlighted. The drawbacks will gradually diminish with future apple silicon refreshes.
Yeah silly considerating it hasn't been that long since these games started dropping.
I will never use my phone to game for these titles, but even then I can acknowledge how impressive the hardware has gotten.
No, because it's impressive how far phone technology has come. Whether you like the Apple ecosystem or not, the simple fact that we can have phones running AAA games with this level of detail is impressive. And while I agree that phones likely won't be the future for traditional video games, at least not for the majority, the tech inside them could be.
ARM processors are becoming incredibly powerful and efficient, so I wouldn’t be surprised if, in two generations, consoles switch to them instead of the x86 platform they use today. The same is already happening with computers; premium workstations are already coming with Qualcomm solutions instead of the traditional AMD or Intel ones.
I mean, it'd be pretty nice if you had a device capable of doing everything you wanted. I can see the appeal here, even if I prefer traditional hardware for handheld gaming.
This mean consoles and pc are not using it's true power not even close to do so if something 10 times smaller weaker in theory can it also or the power inside this big hardware equipment are not truly been used as they supposed to and or they are using old tech in then while cellphones are using more advance newer tech inside them compare to the bigger more space hardware that in theory should give more space to squish more power into it but they are not.
RE: got soft-rebooted with REVII already
Batman: Well ... yeah the next Bats is least likely to be a continuation of Arkham ...
Battlefield: BF games seldom resemble their prequel counterparts ... most were mini-reboots sort of ...
Ghost Recon: YES! please, reboot and return to roots
Halo: yeah .... ok
personal additions:
F.E.A.R, Quake (a la Doom'16 style), Rainbow 6, DeadRising, .....
Resident Evil will need one eventually, our favourite old school characters are getting old in game and they won’t be around for much longer. Capcom should use a remake of the original Resident Evil as their reboot and update the game so the Arklay Mansion incident happens in the 2020s so the characters are young again. After this game they can do anything they want with Chris, Jill, Claire, Leon etc. Hopefully they won’t continue the new timeline in real time with us so the characters won’t age so quickly again.
Halo needs one because I think they’ve done so many novels and the like where they expect you to have read everything to understand their main games.
Same could be said for Kingdom Hearts, they expect to have played all the side games and even the current online game they have going on with the upcoming mobile game Missing Link. KH4 could have started a good softboot for the franchise but even in KH3 with Maleficent’s side plot where she was looking for the black box, those plot elements are from the MMO Kingdom Hearts X. It’s kind of a joke now how convoluted the story has become and yet they still continue to do it.
Assassins Creed needs to go back to the beginning and make a game what AC was all about. I thought AC Mirage would do that but the main character is someone introduced in Valhalla and the gameplay video I saw he could teleport, like it was some power similar to Dishonoreds “Blink” which is beyond silly for this kind of game, it’s not even the First Civilisations technology aswell.
Mass Effect is one but don’t include the reapers.
Strike Series needs one as nothing has come out since the PS1 days.
And maybe something from the Landstalker/Alundra lineage.
