exactly. So, raising the bar with Wii U, and PS4 and Xbox 3 can only raise the minimum bar.. it doesn't fix the audience or the games being made for them, or the direction the HMs are forcing the bottom of the market to follow.

Ask shit disturbers like Cervat Yerli who, god bless him, complains so much that PC and console are so vastly different that Crytek [should] split their effort between platforms instead of having the same franchises on both and calling them the same thing.

Once upon a time even Epic did this, with Gears on one platform and Unreal Tournament on the other(s) where they were more appropriate. As stated above.. it is a pointless debate because publishers are forcing devs to supp...

very lovely. can't wait to try this one.

looks much better than th stock game, but there's still so much more that can be done with the game to improve presentation, and physics.

like SoTD... yeah just having a dream team of veteran developers has never resulted in too many cooks stirring the pot, and a mediocre title and franchise just meant to earn them all more money and fame.

It would have to centre on multiplayer (like the Sims or SimCity) but not upset diehard offline players of any/all EA IPs.

I don't think it is possible for them to have a big budget online only, or DL only game because of how people play and how they are targeting their products to all audiences instead of tailoring them.

correction: Criterion or a new EA studio would need to make more Burnout games that aren't DL titles.

The one problem here is that as expensive as it is to produce, it is one of those games that appeals too much to single players for it to be online only. It should be a gateway game for making you want to play online unless you really don't want to or can't.

I just don't see why EA/Criterion figures it is better to drop the series (for now) y...

at 26 and 27, music isn't the point per se, it is a cultural thing.

no joke

indeed and it only failed so spectacularly because of bad management of 1st party titles, lack of proper DRM, no DVD support (which DC2 would have addressed), lack of 3rd party support and lack of parent company confidence in the brand.

meaning the hardware itself was fine, but it was born in a minefield and its parent ran away.

ubt in this case stop-gap would probably mean the console that shouldn't have been released because it wasn't enough to stan...

bah, 4G galaxy tab and 64 gigs of memory + pocket full of micro SD cards = less mess.

unproven developer will crash and burn. I'm not even going to hold my breath.

at this point they might as well make their own console and bigger deals with independent devs to support their accesories. (which obviously is the plan with the flight sims)

Red Faction got the treatment, maybe Saints Row will be next.

Couldn't hate them more, and I firmly believe they are the ruin of the NFS franchise, but in a game like Prey 2 when you kind of expect big bad ass boss fights, it was almost a given that they would be included. I'm not sad to hear they aren't.. or glad. It ends up being the decision of the developer to add them or not and for them to be appropriate.. Not for them to be a huge portion of the game as in NFS:TR. Especially in an action game where as mentioned above you're expect...

exactly, Bean or Ender game. writing for other's hasn't worked out so far.

I wonder if it has something to do with the novelists not having creative direction on the visuals and game design too.

I think of from dust and Black and white, but that demo is pretty interesting.

Makes me wonder what MindStorms and Kinect plu a projector could accomplish for making lego toys that react based on game rules and physical rules at the same time.

fat chance even as a black friday/xmas launch title on PS4

it won't since they are hogs in slop for the web based civ game.

it sickens me that they'd do civ online in the face of Age of Empires online, also after checking out google's Earth on maps.google.com running in 3D and fairly snappily.

it is like they intentionally refuse to make good games, compared to the classics.

I could imagine a google earth-like 3D world instead of the usual train table map, with players running their litt...
