What! Gears back at #2 and COD4 to 3rd and no meantion of Mass Effect :( well least Oblivion is on there

Tommie5957d ago

This accounts for the entire year of 2007, so Gears of War was a full year on the market, compared to 3 months for Halo 3 and 2 months for Call of Duty 4. So really, Halo 3 and COD4 did amazing, compared to all the other games.

wageslave5954d ago

Did I miss the multiplayer aspect of Mass Effect?

Darkiewonder5957d ago

Now I can pick from those games people play so I can buy. But does anyone know the release date for Ikaruga HD before I spend my MS points?

A game from 2006 (gears of short) make it to the list of most played games for 2007.

LMAO x360 what a complete disaster all around it was in 2007 and cant even think of 2008.

poor xbots.

caffman5956d ago

what on earth was it for the PS3? And gears is still longer than HS

wageslave5954d ago

Gears won Game of the Year after Game of the Year award in its release.

Gears of War has a Metacritic score of 94 / 100 -- better than *ANY* exclusive PS3 game *EVER RELEASED* (and, only matched by the 9.4 by CoD4; which btw is at #5 of overall Xbox 360 titles, exceeded by exclusive BioShock (96/100))

http://www.metacritic.com/g...

AND, it has serious replay ability with Online CoOp and PvP online multiplayer variations -- which, is proved by its popularity in this 2007 LIVE data.

Gears of War is better, has more value, more fans and greater replay ability than any PS3 in existence. It is evidenced by the metrics I provide above.

In SHORT, get lost.

If this is true, I hope it leads to Morrowind getting remade next.

-Foxtrot5d ago

I thought they’d go for Morrowind first to be honest but this is a welcoming surprise to tide us over before ES6

TheColbertinator5d ago

Well said. Exactly my thoughts too.

Tedakin5d ago

Unreal Engine isn't efficient for open world games, so I question the reliability of this story.

isarai5d ago

Yeah, 1st thing that came to my mind too, although i CAN see it being likely for ease if use, but it's not going to run very well if so

Tacoboto5d ago (Edited 5d ago )

I'd wonder if it would just be exploiting Unreal for graphics but the underlying engine/logic is still the original framework.

Like how we had the graphical remakes of Halo Anniversary, Tomb Raider I-III, and Demon's Souls.

Could also end up a disaster like the GTA Trilogy

mkis0075d ago

I have heard that too but even if it's modified isnt arkham knight UE?

Fragslayer4d ago

"remake will run both an Unreal Engine 5 project and the old Oblivion project. For instance, new graphics are rendered in the Unreal Engine 5 project, but most of the gameplay and physics are still done on the original Oblivion engine"

So with this logic it'll run just fine using UE5 tool sets on top of Gamebryo's engine or maybe even Creation Engine, who knows.

Hopefully modders can fix the aged combart in this game if this is true. Enemies leveling up with you broke and defeated the whole purpose of leveling up.

Fragslayer4d ago

Yeah it could use some tuning for sure hence the need for a Remake not a Remaster. I'm surprised it's even a conversation within them group which makes me skeptical it's Oblivion. I wouldn't say they shouldn't level up at all though maybe just a leave them a couple levels behind to appease the masses.

Why MW 2019 is still the best looking Call of Duty to date

MW 2019 is five years old at this point and on previous gen hardware, but it is still the best looking Call of Duty game to date.

MW was an excellent videogame. They messed up Spec Ops big time, but aside from this it was a huge step in the right direction initially. Most notably, at launch it seemed to come from a very cohesive creative vision that was felt across gameplay, to story to art style/visual direction. It was also very notably written by prominent ex-Naughty Dog guys that quit almost immediately before release.

That COMPLETELY dissolved through post-launch content and the full pivot to a "cross-mode" narrative that completely obliterated the cohesion in overall story direction. Warzone then "became" the new face of Call of Duty and the franchise completely removed itself from anything remotely creatively "good". It is a pure money machine, so I kinda get why they're doing it....but I personally completely lost interest.

I would love to see Infinity Ward move off CoD and get to make their own product with full control. They clearly have some massive talent in their ranks but it's perverted by Activision's corporate interests.

If they have Skyrim number one, list has lost all credibility.
