This was a great movie, but I don't really think it should be considered a videogame movie. It's not based on a videogame or has its origins as a game. This movie is its own thing that borrows videogame elements instead of taking a franchise and adapting it to the big screen.
no load screens sound a little strange. Im sure there will be loading, but in a subtle way. Sort of like how metroid prime worked with those doors. Unless they release this game on a cartridge...
Sony has been throwing out a larger number of new ops, but they don't market the games well enough. I do disagree that great games sell well, xenoblade and the last story were 2 examples of great games that didn't sell well or got a lot of positive hype...or awards. It's really all a game of chance. Not all great games get the attention they deserve.
That is a problem with introducing ops ips. You have a fanbase of zero to work with and to guarantee sales. That's kinda why games like Pokemon or Zelda always sell extremely well and sell those systems They are featured on.
Seeing all the positive feedback for the new god of war, I might check this one out. God of war 3 was a little too short and the story sucked, but the events were cool.
Congrats to all the winners. No runner UPS? Oh well.
I'm not an Xbox fan, I i would like to see what Microsoft is bring to the table.
Soul Calibur had really good 1p modes till they screwed it up with SC4 and 5. A stupid tower and a slide show? What happened to the map that detailed where you were going, what was a happening, and so on? I really did like SC3's adventure mode. That was cool.
Namco/bandai, oddly enough, put out the SRW and ACE series. Hope they put that SRW cross-over effort into smash bros 4 story mode. CHARACTERS INTERACTING!
You're right though, Namco is a lot bett...
I know that Capcom and other companies are working on a budget. That's why they would need to spread their focus out. Instead of focusing solely on making the game balanced (something that can be patched), they should work on making a story mode and extra modes.
Another good example of a fighting game with a lot of content is Smash bros Brawl. That game celebrated Nintendo with trophies to unlock, songs, an adventure mode with cool cutscenes, mini games, and other fun st...
Stories in normal fighting games has always been a problem. MK9 did it right by focusing on the main characters and giving the other characters a good amount of importance and screen time to make it feel more like an adventure. I did like MKvsDC's story and looking forward to Injustice's story in the near future. I absolutely hate the MK fighting system for various reasons, but I will put that aside to see the amazing work the team has put into their game. Although I hate the fighting...
I'm a cheap gamer, so I do gauge my console purchases on franchises I know will be on the system. Every system relies on their games. Games is what drives console sales. It's no coincidence that there was a spike in 3ds games sold when Mario kart (and the price drop) happened. I'm sure the same will happen when Pokemon X/Y comes out too.
The Vita is a powerful machine, but most of the games on there (vita only games) are not games I'm interested in. I might g...
This Reviewers issue stems from the fact that he went into the game with the mindset that this game was a metal gear SOLID, a sneaking game. So of course the player wouldn't like it. this is a SPIN OFF! It's like going into Mario kart and expecting platforming and an over world map.
I respect different opinions and not everyone will like the same games. But this is just bad to the point of possible trolling. I disliked Darksouls and Dishonored, but I'd never give ...
I guess this was suppose to be a joke article cause most of these team-ups suck. Uncharted and Tombraider would be a believable mix.
The biggest western cross over game concept would definitely be DC vs Marvel comics. Others would be famous cartoon characters like Disney-X-WB and lesser known characters from wherever.
It's hard to say what mass cross overs would be good in terms of western studios. I'm mainly looking at Activision, Ubisoft, and EA. I...
Some games are better with certain controllers. Some people prefer controllers over a mouse and keyboard when they play FPS games. Nothing wrong with that. To say that it's obsolete? I don't think so. It's just player preference. There are people who are great at fighting games using an arcade stick, but give them a controller and they struggle. Playing a racing game with a controller is easier to me than playing with the arcade wheel. I prefer using a GC controller when playing s...
I used to love capcom as a company, but now when I see a game with the capcom logo, I have to think twice about buying that game. Given their track record, their games have been incomplete and have a lot of disc locked content.What hurts even more is that they are making good money from DLC. It's mainly the non-capcom fan base that buy into their DLC, the ones who just got into capcom games like RE5-6 or SFxTK. The only DLC I ever bought from Capcom was for Megaman 9...which was a rip off...
If race didn't matter, then why would an article like this even pop up? RACE DOES MATTER to an extent. Almost ever other game these days feature a white guy...a white shaved head male...chin down eyes up. Star Killer, Shepard, Wesker sons, Cole, DOA5 kick boxer guy...
It's just very standard in videogames to have a white lead. When another race or a woman is the lead, the game usually gets looked at a little more. During the whole RE5 thing, one of the guys from game...
I agree to an extent with what you're saying. Realism in games, such as physics and some story aspects are okay with me. Delve too deep into realism and you get a simulator. IMO, realism isn't completely needed in games for people to have fun and be immersed in it. People delve into the world of Pokemon just as much as Skyrim. People love Mario and Sonic and those characters hardly have any realistic emotional stories. Then there's Journey which wasn't super realistic, yet bro...
These are my problems with the game, but I'm sure some it did contribute to why this game wasn't a big hit:
Marketing-
Have you seen the (US Realistic )commercial for this game? Who is their target audience? Adults? this has been a problem with Sony's marketing. Some games...like this one...shouldn't be marketed and presented as the "Adult" smash bros. Why? BECAUSE IT'S NOT AN ADULT ALTERNATIVE! Was there even gameplay fotage in those com...
It's a nice list to acknowledge black characters, but if you look at it...it's kinda sad. Only 1 of those characters is a MAIN character. The rest are side characters. They have interesting back stories, but they aren't the main focus in the game they are featured in. It's something I highly dislike and I strongly believe we need more non-white main characters. The most popular character design these days seem to be the shaved head Caucasian male (Star Killer, Shepard, Cole Ma...
I just think that the story of kratos couldn't and should've ended with Gow2 instead of things being dragged out in GOW3. Not a bad game by all means.
