is the lost and damned,so many great moments,it's so unique seeing what happening in liberty city from another angle,it worth every penny

and some dlc's are just straight rip off,resi5,im looking at you, mp mode(amazing game btw)

content already there in the disk,1.96MB download for 400 points(5$)

CrazyOrange5825d ago

i dont think the content was on the disc because they didnt add new thing i mean like weapon or stuffs like that, just new mode.

its only programing code which won't take much .

Wolfmoonstrike5825d ago (Edited 5825d ago )

Resi5 versus mode should have been an update not DLC. I mean that is bullshit especially releasing it so soon after the game came out.

I think I like Criterion Games' method I mean they updated a lot of Burnout Paradise with free content and only later did they bring out premium dlc. I think that's doing it right.

Valkyria Chronicles seems to be doing it right as well bring extra stuff out about year after the game was out to boost sales and to extend life span.

But the s**t that barely adds anything and costs like $5 is bull I mean if it's so damn small add it for free for the people that support your game, mainly because that builds rapport and the consumers will more likely buy your DLC because of your continued support.

I'm loving some of the contents like GTA4, Fallout 3 and L4D. However, there are some that are BS and won't buy.

Jack Klugman5825d ago

i will always prefer physical copies of games over download only. i dont trust these companies enough to give them that much control.

AsILayDying5825d ago

i love dlc , but i hate waiting for it lol

Defectiv3_Detectiv35825d ago

Yeah, alot of people complain when DLC comes out too early, but it also sucks waiting forever. As long as its not already on the disc, like some DLC, where you're just paying to unlock it(RE5), I don't have any beef.

The Evil Within Deserved More: A Great Horror Series Left Behind

The Outerhaven writes: While I hold Bethesda's The Evil Within series as some of the best Survival Horror games available, it's clear that Bethesda has no intention of revisiting the series. While Capcom is still working on its Resident Evil series, I look back at the now-dead survival horror series from Bethesda, wondering why the series was left wide open, and yet still not revisited.

An OK horror series left behind. It had some great ideas, but it never knew how to play to its strengths. Instead, it came out like just another RE4 clone.

I would love for a third entry to come out, but it needs to learn to lean in on the psychological aspect and move away from the generic "pew pew" ideology at the center of the gameplay loop. It doesn't need to abandon it; it just needs to put it into better context, is all.

Also, try a first-person perspective instead. Too many 3rd-person games with nothing to offer but an avatar taking precious screen space. At least make it an actual option and not that janky-ass mess the second game pretended to have.

Love both games, hope that we will get third game

PS5/Pro/Switch 2 version of RDR2 seems most likely. I’d love a RDR3 but that seems years away

Cacabunga1d ago

Id be happy for just a 60fps patch

OmegaSoldati1d ago (Edited 23h ago)

Agreed, but at the same time RD2 came out in 2018. Could it be a remake of Red Dead 1?

Spoiler:

Marston died in the end of Red Dead and Red Dead 2 is set before that. Im curious now. What news could it be?

mkis00716h ago

I'm pretty sure the next game will be another prequel as the story really has no where to go as far as being a western after red dead redemption. The next game will end with the ferry boat incident.

Profchaos1d 2h ago (Edited 1d 2h ago )

Their contracts are iron clas if they leak anything legit they are threatened with immense legal action.

My hopes for what this is are minimal its probably a meet and greet with the cast

I dont see why they would be involved in a upgraded version of rdr2 when the dialogue hasn't changed

thorstein22h ago

He seems to have been cleared to do this as he purposely picked up the game, streamed it, and made the announcement.
