CG writes: Japanese developer Soleil Ltd. just updated their cyberpunk themed action-game Wanted Dead (currently 50% OFF) after about a year after release with a combat overhaul. We put the updated game to the test to see if it’s now worth playing or not.
CG writes: We put Solei’s action game into VR using Praydog’s UEVR mod for a really neat third-person Wanted: Dead VR game. What’s great is that it just works with no tweaking required, other than perhaps renaming the OpenVR folder if it fails to inject. The experience is great as a gamepad, third-person action game. Due to the nature of the gameplay, you need to be able to see enemies who sneak up behind you, so the third-person view is perfect for this.
Daniel Kelly says: This is probably the worst game I’ve ever kind of liked. That title used to belong to Deadly Premonition: a game which, despite all of its charm, is awful to play. Wanted: Dead, however, is a game with similar charm but, at times, competent gameplay. If only it were actually good instead.
Loved the story of Deadly Premonition and the quests weren’t too bad because they were tied to the story but the combat and driving were awful. But I thouroughly enjoyed the game as the story, pop culture, and quirkiness made up for the issues. Does this game have a great story? I heard the combat was meh which I can get past if the story is really good
I thought thi sgame was a great game for what it was, i enjoyed the combat and gameplay...and the mini games wree a nice surprise....onpy thing is, the story, im not even sure what its about and ive beaten the game.
It’s that time of the year. And oh I know that a lot of you have been waiting for this. Here are the Worst Optimized PC Games of 2023.
Hogwarts Legacy should be there. I STILL can't play it because of how bad the framerate is. Graphics options do next to nothing on there. I put everything on high and ultra settings at 1440p or even 4k and I get sharp drops below 40 FPS.
I change everything to medium or low settings at 1080p and I still get drops down below 40 FPS. As well as, some instances that go into the 30's. Makes no sense at all. Great game, but it's poorly built on a technical level. Those that bought it on console lucked out. Because the developers focused on those, instead of the PC version. That much is very clear.
I played it in the Deck so I shouldn't expect it to run all too smoothly, but I've played other games just as graphically demanding that ran at a constant 40 fps, on medium too. The game works, but I agree that performance is all over the place.
Consoles is the primary version/focus, PC isn't there primary market as unfortunately they probably cheap out knowing half the player count pirated the copy.
I'm sorry to say buy piracy ruins PC versions because it ain't worth the time probably?
there are 1.83Billion active pc players. ps5 has sold 50million. pc is always the best version with most care. Dont believe all clickbait articles games on pc run better than consoles even the 600dollar pc outperform ps5
It's one part of the competency crisis plaguing AAA these days. Lack of disciplined people being hired, and those that are rely too heavily on hardware solutions to pick up their slack in software. It's an ongoing issue in most industries right now. Just as well, AAA keeps missing the mark routinely be it gameplay or performance and that's often across all platforms. Find myself enjoying AA and Indies more these days.
How is Starfield not on that list, it looks like a 10+ year old game and runs like s**t!
And let me give you the worst website out there, your on it right now. How many times are we going to see runtime error, maybe change the name to runtime-error.com🤣 Doesn't matter what browser you use, or clean cookies that runtime error just keeps coming back.
Due to N4G, I'm currently cirlcling through 3 different browsers on my phone at the moment just to see on which 1 it decides to run next without that damn error. Should have put it up there in this article just to make a statement!
Is this review about the new game update or your controller just not playing nice.
I enjoyed the game when it first released.
Looked quirky but with a dash of jank. I may play it someday but with so many better games to play not sure I’ll get to it.
Seems the person playing didn't know anything about doing the finishing moves. Press Y+B when they are flashing. Like, that's the entire point of the combat. Idiot.
Overhaul is a strong word.
The police break in level still has the worst checkpoint in the game.
The skill tree is empty, I start the level, die by the hands. Of a broken sub-boss and I spawn again 15 minutes back with my skill tree empty again.
