They’ve already proven out the model, which is to release it to the fan base on the existing PlayStation (break all sales records) , and then release an enhanced edition on the next gen console.Few games are as well positioned to do this. Fans of TLOU gladly paid twice. I did, and will do it again. It’s because TLOU basically sits on top of the throne. Only a few other console games like GTA can sit in this space. But lots of games will follow the pattern to increase sales. But TLOU 2 will ab...
"I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of micro-transactions suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened."
A corporate entity that sells products to children has curation rules ? Whoa
My condolences to the families and friends who lost loved ones .
I play on Good Old Games now. Because I am good. And old.
I too believe that videogames have some effects on mental health that are positive. There's usually a lot of talk about the negative but alot of highly creative people I know all use gaming as a stress release / enjoyable pastime. Videogames become negative when you spend too much time playing them to the detriment of work/health/school/relationshi ps. I think you're very brave to speak about your struggles with mental health and wish you the best.
Whenever VO get uppity it never ends well. The industry just won't be beholden to voice actors and demands. The game might make 10 Billion dollars but the business does not value VO work in that way. They just replace. I really like the latest reboot of Lara Croft and the VO actress does play a significant role in that impression.
Shepard is back. I just know it
When this piece of flotsam indicated that "Being a clone of GTA shouldn't be that hard" I just closed the window.
Demon's Souls - what a game!
I am a contented Ps4 Pro and OLED TV owner, who calmly adores the Playstation platform this generation. I owned a launch day bone but sold it. My hat is off to those enjoying the One X. I am super happy about that and love games.
I am interested in the platform but do not have the impetus to re-buy Xbox One, yet. If some crazy content comes out that blows away the field I may take the hit on the One X. But Playstation Pro really is a great platform, I just have no complaints. With L...
EA's big announcement seems to concede that they really screwed this up. I hope the single player campaign satisfies and perhaps they add additional single player. I will play some multiplayer too to get the flavour. In my heart I long for for more Dark Forces-styled games which is a story, a narrative, and lots of areas to shoot stormtroopers or rebels or whatever.
Gamers listen to me now ! I am a 43 year old man. I have four kids. I play video games mostly at night when everyone is sleeping. I have an OLED tv I bought just for gaming. I was also there when Dark Forces came out. I played, Dark Forces II (I LOVED IT) and believe me - all the rest. The games lost the plot after a while. I am SO STOKED there is a single player campaign. It ties into Shattered Empire - which I read the comics. I am so excited for this game ! I am in Las Vegas on business a...
I am all about the single player - "Dark Forces old man gamer"
This trailer was brutal and amazing and I need to play this game !
I am missing me some Dead Space.
Given the amount of first party titles on that system, I don’t think Microsoft wanted to bother developers much at all.
I'm not a fan of the Bone (sold mine) but isnt Xbox One outselling the 360 at this point in lifecycle. I was a HUGE 360 fan and felt the 360 dominated...so, layperson would assume Xbox One is doing super good too ?
Only Shepard can jump start this thing. Players have too much invested in Shepard. It like we've fused with his/her DNA.
I fear that for many of you, you are starting the feel that slightly disconcerting feeling, that the game designers are targeting a new, different, or younger audience than you. They've made a decision to be what you might consider edgy but in their analysis it's what may work better with the target audiences -- they are looking for more mainstream audiences to draw in.
