Codemasters has decided to ditch PvP with Operation Flashpoint: Red River in favour of 4-player co-operation action and they believe that many people underestimate just how big it can be. They also believe that the big titles in the genre are causing fatigue.
Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising launched back in 2009, bringing the realistic military operations to console for the first time.
Seeing as EA now own this franchise wouldn't it make sense for DICE to develop a new Operation Flashpoint game? Battlefield has realism to a certain extent but it isn't exactly "real"
COG writes: Every month, two armies stand in a field and stare at each other in an intimidating manner. A battle royale ensues. Sony and Microsoft stand at arm's length from each other, slapping each other with white gloves in a distinguished fashion. Actually, they just give away free games. Which lineup rules the roost in December 2015? Let's turn to the tale of the tape.
I am thinking EVERYONE wins. Whether the games are great or mediocre, they are downloadable with your console online service of choice and give you some value, and even more gameplay time. YAY to games.
Van Helsing and Sacred are better than anything the PS4 is getting.
Lol Sony is giving us an episode of a game (something that Telltale routinley gives out for free), and a game that has been part of a $3 bundle on the PC.
Having said that, I expected more from both as a Christmas present.
Still, Gold takes it hands down seeing as how all Gold games can now be played on the XBONE.
Soon Xbox Live subscribers will have access to a new set of free games they can play on their Xbox 360s or Xbox Ones.
Castlestorm was already free on the XB1, so that is a wash, but I am pleased with the other titles! I have been dying to play Sacred 3 (even though I hear it is pretty bad) because I thoroughly enjoyed Sacred 2. I have been wanting to play Thief as well. All of these are games I have wanted to try, but didn't really want to buy, so this list works out great for me!
Loved Thief, very underrated and will check out Van Helsing, it's a top down game like Diablo, IIRC.
Damn MS, really good stuff. I like that they are reaching for bigger games, not just indies. Always wanted to try Thief and will definitely get Operation Flashpoint.
They should have ended the year with a bang. Just cause 2 and fallout 3 for the Xbox 360. Maybe ryse and sunset overdrive for the Xbox one. Only game that I'm somewhat interested in is operation flashpoint which is probably not as good as the arma series.
Sweet mother, YES! Granted, this might be a little risky, but I am super glad to see them trying something out of the norm!
modern shooters are the new WW2 of this gen.
I don't Think so it depends on what your playing and what games are being developed
Kz3
Brink
Resistance 3
Battlefield 3
will be four veru different fps expriences do't want to tire out the genre
stop being generic those games are not
and i'm getting all but battlefield 3
yeah, i'd definitely agree with that sentiment. you wouldn't know it from black ops sales, though.
fair enough, but is the game going to be a buggy mess again?
bring on timesplitters 4 or something like that to put a big refresh on the fps scene, ts3 died too fast online even though it was fantastic
