EA Dev: 'Game Stories Are Crap'

NowGamer: Alex Hutchinson, creative director on Army Of Two: The 40th Day has said that linear stories in videogames don't make the grade

Speaking exclusively to NowGamer about the Army of Two sequel, Hutchinson, who spent six years working on titles like the Sims and Spore, told us that videogaming suits narratives generated by players.

I'd say that too if all my stories were about winning the Super Bowl.

...in the wake of Uncharted 2 is asinine.

WildArmed5292d ago

lmfao @ Op.
yeah.. story is one of the reasons I wanna keep playing. Ofc, there are exceptions, but Ao2 had a pretty decent story...
but then there is mercenaries 2.. the crappiest story ever lol but never the less the game was fun. :)

EA Dev: 'Game Stories Are Crap compared to Uncharted 2'

Fixed

Elven65292d ago

For a game like The Sims, Spore, etc yea sure but what about all the other games?

LinuxGuru5292d ago (Edited 5292d ago )

What a dumb comment by an average creative director.

lol maybe dude should play MGS4 and Uncharted 1+2. It's not our fault most third party devs are incompetent morons.

Top 10 Xbox 360 Games That Need to be Backward Compatible

Kevin F. from Link Cable Gaming writes: "Many of the best Xbox 360 games are playable on the Xbox One and Series X|S consoles. Some even with some enhanced visuals and performance. Unfortunately, not every game from the Xbox 360 library has received this glorious feat of being able to be played on more modern Microsoft consoles."

The Spider-man games will never happen. The xbox 360 Marvel Ultimate Alliance games have a better chance of happening than Spider-man titles but won't happen. The Xbox One Ultimate Alliance games delisted years ago

Vits1024d ago

Yeah... you can totally forget about those entries that got delisted because of licensing issues. Those are not happening.

Wait everything isn’t BC? You guys act like it is lol

porkChop1024d ago

Almost all of the games people want to play are BC, and that's a hell of a lot better than having none available.

ApocalypseShadow1024d ago (Edited 1024d ago )

Almost all the games people want to play? Not true. Majority picks screw over the minority who have games collecting dust. Metal is right. Fans make it seem that it's all. 39/997 games from OG Xbox is NOT all. 568/2154 from 360 is NOT all. But you guys play it up like it is.

And from my count, there are 4,000+ PS4 BC games on PS5 that I see. And almost every VR game. Series X has no Kinect games or Kinect 2. But you played that up too. No more dancing.

As for the article, some of the BC games make sense. The others with Spider-Man aren't happening.

Neil writes: "With the delay of many AAA titles, and the move into the summer period, it is still a little quiet on the new games front. But that in turn at least gives us the chance to crack on with knuckling down with our huge list of older games that we've been meaning to play. It does however also mean that in order to keep that backlog list topped up, even more Xbox games will need to be purchased - and that is where the latest Xbox Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale comes in. The latest one - that working between the 7th-13th July 2020 - offers plenty of great discounts on numerous Xbox One and Xbox 360 titles."
