"The audience was split three ways," Activision's Dan Amrich said in a blog post.
"Blur came out a week after Split/Second and the same day as ModNation Racers. I'm not sure what your budget looks like, but I can rarely afford to buy three games in eight days - nor do I have the time to play all of them at once anyway."
Cultured Vultures: In the spirit of preserving some kind of history of this industry, we’ve decided to list some of the best games that you just simply can’t get hold of digitally at the minute.
I just started playing Spec op. I've had it for years on steam and forgot about it. Such a good game.
Honorable mention to the excellent Driveclub, one of the best racing games of all-time and one of my favourite games ever.
Outrun Online Arcade, Sega Rally Online Arcade, After Burner Climax... all good stuff. I keep my 360 hooked up to play these as well as the TMNT games that were also delisted.
wow...I have all of them except the Nintendo ones either in physical or digital version.
Also..Deadpool the Game is missing on that list.
Whilst it’s rather disappointing that there are no new Blur games on the way, we can still look back at the series and reminisce.
there was more than one? man i must have really checked out after the first one.... or my lack of interest is showing. that game was..... not great.
Wanted to love this game so much, but just couldn't, it was the cars handling more than anything else, why they couldn't have kept or remade the pgr handling model is anyone's guess.
Tbf didn't know there was more than one. But looking at the other games in this list no wonder the series died after the first major title. Racing is an awkward series to compete in imo. You can't really go down the simulation route cause games like Forza have got that covered and if you want arcade smash up style racing then just play the old NFS or Burnout.
There were a number of cult classics that didn't sell like gangbusters, but still worked their way into gamers' hearts. Here's WWG list of nine great titles that deserve a second chance on newer consoles
I'll point out that these games are all from the X360/PS3 era - they've already had HD releases when they first came out. Split/Second and Blur - with the crazy vehicle physics capable today, why would we not want sequels to them?
The other games, all a matter of opinion of course, but... thank you for your ads between every single game. /s
Dafuq kinda title is that? These games were already released on HD consoles though...
K
This isnt true.
Just check the Blur leaderboards theres only like 100,000 stats.
Many of which are fake accounts which were used to hack the legendary cars.
Acitivsion would always defend their games, even if they are clearly as broken as MW2.
I hate you activision, let the call of duty franchise go so we as gamers can play with fun and not frustration.
It was THE failure! lol
not a failure, just a disaster
Of course it's not a failure. They obviously have lots of profit from COD series!!
Activision can afford 5 more games that Suck & fail and they won't be losing anything. just fire the developers, cause they didn't make them any profit !!
