At the keynote off the developer-focused Gamefest 2007 in Seattle, Microsoft's Game Developer Group general manager Chris Satchell has focused on the three cores of Microsoft's gaming business: MSN, Xbox 360 and Games For Windows. Xbox Live is a huge part of converging all three, allowing him to reveal some notable XBL statistics in his opening presentation.
Satchell says there are currently more than 7.1 million Xbox Live users and, more surprisingly, those users have conducted more than 25 million downloads on Xbox 360.
Far Cry 3, an open-world masterpiece that redefined the series. Gameplay and storyline makes it a timeless classic that still inspires today.
It's gotta be Far Cry 2 for me, the feeling of that game I'm still yet to find again, just everything about it, I'd kill for a remaster, I'd even be happy with just a bump in resolution and frame rate, occasionally go back to it, think I'm gunna have to do just that now 😂
A remaster of Far Cry 2 would be amazing, especially with the mods that fixed the broken stealth system and the dumb checkpoint respawns. Include those fixes and it would be a huge upgrade over the original.
Enemies respawn in Far Cry 2? Terrible! It's a broken system! Make me a one-man army who can inexplicably hold an entire region!
Enemies respawn in Dark Souls and Zelda? Brilliant! So much more hardcore! Glad the devs took risks!
The problem isn't them respawning. It's that they respawned after just 5 minutes. Like you'd still be in the area looking for diamonds, loot, exploring, etc, and the enemies would just respawn with you there.
RDR 1 was a great game, but the lack of screen time for some characters, boring horse riding, and lack of mission variety takes away the fun at times.
Yeah
It's as good as you remember
Feels like one of those "10 HARSH realities of Re-watching" articles
I love how it seems a extreme few remember that red dead redemption is red dead revolver 2.
red dead revolver now that is rough red dead redemption for its time was groundbreaking and it still has way better cover system/dlc/mp content then red dead 2.
I remember all the bugs the game had day one like donkey lady so dam funny
@caca
I know i said that
Oh boy let me guess no one here knows what red dead revolver is
Or you all never played version 1.0 of rdr 1 i bet its that so many on here have the stench of being in gaming for 10 years at most.
Stop pretending being superior in knowledge to everyone else..
The article title is about RDR1 and the thumbnail also confirma that. No one (at least i dont) care about what you say about RDRev.
You are the only one who spoke off topic abt another game.
If it makes you glad that you are the only one who knows what RDRev is then congratulations.. just pathetic
“ red dead revolver now that is rough red dead redemption for its time was groundbreaking and it still has way better cover system/dlc/mp content then red dead 2.”
Oh and thanks for the laugh ..
Looken
It was made by Capcom until they gave up and R* bought the IP. Hopefully one day we get a complete remake of the original to bring it in line with rest of the series along with other quality if life features. Another great is Gun very under rated
On topic:
If we are going to compare RDR to current generation games then we will surly find some stuff that's lacking but for it's time it was a masterpiece and for me it's one of the best games I have ever played. I hope it ends up on Pc where nodding community can take full advantage and make the game even better. Other than that's no it's not overrated at all. We don't even get that many western games and it's to me the best one (yes better then RDR2)
It does but the game was made originally for ps2 back after san andreas so for the dev window and timeline it makes sense.
red dead revolver was back in 2004
https://www.gamesradar.com/...
after this they were making gta iv and a squeal that became read dead redemption
But you all will hate this because facts are scary
"Red Dead [Redemption] has been in production for six years (mainly because of horrible management/lack of direction due to fear of disrespecting Rockstar NY) and it will never get the money back in sales it cost to create for those six years," claimed another source.
From a 2010 article hmm what is 2010 - 6 hmmm
https://www.engadget.com/20...
The swimming in red dead one made sense for the time period and dev hell it was in
Again though it seems alot on here have 0 game knowledge before 2018.
Nobody asked about or mentioned revolver
Why are you bringing it up in every reply?
Just looken
I could agree with you about the swimming part but I was swimming my ass off in San Andreas which pre dates
Either way it's not a deal breaker and the game was dope af
I liked it a bit better because I didn’t think it had many “small nitpicky” things RDR2 had that on its own meant nothing but when a lot built up it was annoying. For example getting off your horse and you had to reselect your weapons again or walking around the camp slowly. None issues but built up with others sometimes it was a little frustrating at times.

blasphemous 1 for me.
i love the artstyle and how they didnt shy away from their imagery
but symphony of the night is also superb
Catlevanias GBA and DS games are the best! But there others that I like a lot such as Hollow Knight, Chasm etc
As much as I want Silksong, adding it to the BEST is a little premature. It's not even out yet.
aaquib2 your confused.
The 25 Million is just XBLA games, their have been 45 million downloads on XBL. The Sony number is downloads of everything
The title states that PSN is 5M behind, however i didn't see any mention of this in the story.
The source makes no mention of PSN or what Jack T. said.
Did you just add that yourself to induce maximum flamage?
I believe MS has a lot more than 25mil downloads.
EDIT: Ah, thanks Odion I knew that number seemed very low for total marketplace downloads.
Of course people with ps3s download a lot of things, they have no games to play.
*shakes head at headline change*
