The recent news of a new Nintendo system that is more powerful than the PS3 and 360 is an industry changer, but not in a good way.
The Outerhaven writes: While I hold Bethesda's The Evil Within series as some of the best Survival Horror games available, it's clear that Bethesda has no intention of revisiting the series. While Capcom is still working on its Resident Evil series, I look back at the now-dead survival horror series from Bethesda, wondering why the series was left wide open, and yet still not revisited.
An OK horror series left behind. It had some great ideas, but it never knew how to play to its strengths. Instead, it came out like just another RE4 clone.
I would love for a third entry to come out, but it needs to learn to lean in on the psychological aspect and move away from the generic "pew pew" ideology at the center of the gameplay loop. It doesn't need to abandon it; it just needs to put it into better context, is all.
Also, try a first-person perspective instead. Too many 3rd-person games with nothing to offer but an avatar taking precious screen space. At least make it an actual option and not that janky-ass mess the second game pretended to have.
During a livestream on his personal Twitch channel, Rob Wiethoff (who voices John Marston in the Red Dead Redemption series) hinted at "exciting news" to be revealed next week. According to Wiethoff, the news will be announced "before Friday".
PS5/Pro/Switch 2 version of RDR2 seems most likely. I’d love a RDR3 but that seems years away
Agreed, but at the same time RD2 came out in 2018. Could it be a remake of Red Dead 1?
Spoiler:
Marston died in the end of Red Dead and Red Dead 2 is set before that. Im curious now. What news could it be?
I'm pretty sure the next game will be another prequel as the story really has no where to go as far as being a western after red dead redemption. The next game will end with the ferry boat incident.
Their contracts are iron clas if they leak anything legit they are threatened with immense legal action.
My hopes for what this is are minimal its probably a meet and greet with the cast
I dont see why they would be involved in a upgraded version of rdr2 when the dialogue hasn't changed
He seems to have been cleared to do this as he purposely picked up the game, streamed it, and made the announcement.
"Back in the innocent days of 2010, A World of Keflings was a fairly popular successor to A Kingdom for Keflings. I even wrote about it a few times in 2012! But the world of humans moved on, and NinjaBee's city-building/adventure game was last seen on the ill-fated Wii U in 2014. Fast-forward to the dark year of 2025, and not only is A World of Keflings coming to Steam, but there's already a playable demo! Perhaps the cheerful, no pressure gameplay that the Keflings bring is just what we need nowadays," says Co-Optimus.
All leaks point to a late 2012 release which is still a LONG ways off plus the leaked specs put it on par with the 360 (maybe a tad better) so I doubt MS/Sony will rush to get a new console out.
what I can't understand is how some of you couldn't see this coming. Every 5 years Nintendo announces/brings out a new console. Sony released PS3 6 years after ps2 regardless of 10 year plan. MS...lol...this is already the longest the've ever gone.
Am I the only one who feels like this gen never really started? That it was nothing more then a semi-stagnant pause for what will hopefully be a more substantive console cycle. One genuinely focused on gaming, not just only online graphics and FPS.
Feels like it. With all the ps4 rumors and DICE's ramblings it's hard not to feel that the new generation would start soon. But it still feels too soon. For goodness sakes FFv13 still hasnt released and it was announced before ps3 even launched. I expect Sony MS and (especially) Nintendo might reveal something new early next year. E3 is way too soon.
It all depends on if Nintendo can strike gold again, by introducing something new to the masses. The Wii dominated sales wise this generation because of the motion gaming aspect, if the Wii2 is just better graphics with the Wii+ controller, I don't think it will force Sony or MS to react. Nintendo's target audience now is almost strictly the casual gamer, and they already have a Wii that they can waggle with. Will better graphics really get them to buy a new system?
As for the "hardcore", many were already burnt on the Wii's paltry third party offerings and weak online play. Unless Nintendo can improve upon those two aspects, I think most gamers will be happy waiting for the next gen systems from Sony and MS.
Having better graphics right now is probably more of a curse than a blessing anyway. All you hear is developers talking about how expensive it is to make games on the PS3 and 360 and how long it takes. Do you really think they want to tackle new tech right now?
