GameCritics - If you read my review of Alan Wake, then you know I wasn't a huge fan. While the premise offered much potential, it was disappointing to see the developers stick to a repetitive run-and-gun formula while refusing to capitalize on the things that made the title unique; things like the main character being a writer, or how the adventure had to do with a "dark place" and its ability to alter reality.
CVG: Epic Games' most famous franchise, Gears Of War, may be hugely reliant on its cover system - but they'll be no such mechanic in its new shooter Bulletstorm
As previously reported on CVG, it has an admirably ridiculous story - with a drunken space-based rivalry at its heart
However, those expecting a Gears-style cover-shoot-cover-shoot effort can think again
I hav 2 admit, BulletStorms lookin SWEET!!! Epic hurry up and show sum gameplay - STAT
Not sure this is good for me. I much prefer a shooter with a good cover system over your typical stand around and shoot system.
We'll see, I guess.
Excellent. Then we won't have to worry about taking cover, just shooting things up.
Just as the game's name intended.
CVG: Kirby looks set to make his return in a Wii game in the next 12 months as Hoshi No Kirby (Kirby Of The Stars) has appeared on Nintendo's latest release schedule.
The new schedule was released as part of Nintendo's Financial Results Briefing and Hoshi No Kirby appears alongside the Legend Of Zelda (Temp) in the list.
However, the release dates for both games are listed as TBA and neither appears in the Europe or US sections of the schedule. It's also worth pointing out that Hoshi No Kirby also appeared in last year's Financial Results Briefing.
The 90-minute DLC continues immediately after where the main game ends, offering a chance to beef up that abrupt “conclusion”
Whatever happen to Remedy? Are they still an independent developer
Yes, after Alan Wake they moved on to launch Quantum Break, and currently are working on a new game with no systems announced for it.
They went multiplatform so as a PlayStation 4 owner I'm looking forward to what they bring out.
@solidsnake while you are entitled to your opinion, Alan wake was one of the best games of last gen.
Maybe it's just a physical game they play in the studio. Like tag or hide and seek.
The Signal and The Writer don't just offer clarity they are the continuation and true ending of the game. I love that game but I'm not a fan of the practice of DLC conclusions. This game, Dead Space 3, Dead Rising 4 others I can't quite remember.
I think this game was an example of something with a full blown sequel planned but MS dictated that they'd only be willing to fund dlc and a smaller game.
Had the game been more successful I think we'd have seen an Alan Wake 2 by now.
Loved this game... ms had so many great games last gen and gen before that, sadly i could only imagine what it would of been like with the 1x with sequels like this game and perfect dark, brute force, ninja Gaige now would be insane! Crimson skies, kameo...
Damn ms why you gave up on so many great franchises? I’m sure I’m missing many more games!
