Video Game Bonanza!

[Clyde]

OMG is THAT why my saves keep going away??!?!?!?

Probably, yes. The cartridges available at release were buggy. Later productions of the game were fixed but unfortunately I had no Internet at that time to find out. When I did, it was a little too late.

One game might have just convinced me to go Xbox One.

Oh my- I dont even- Holy- What the- Get the-

Fuck. That looks insane.

[Clyde]

The E3 demo actually put me off the game. The gameplay looks repetitive. Attack then activate QTE on every enemy. Apparently even if you miss the QTE it doesn't matter - pointless.

[AB23]

The graphics remind me of the very first scene of saving private ryan. I'm so pumped for that game

[nagpo]

From what I've heard the game is pretty shitty. And I think the scene was meant to remind you of Saving private Ryan, such a shameless unoriginal rip.

I've heard the game is really, really short and it's filled with QTE's out of the ass. Reviews should be coming in by friday.

Anyways, I'm currently playing Castlevania: Lament of Innocence. Gonna play lego batman next and I've got Castlevania Circle of the Moon on the way.

I've been playing GTA V for the last couple of weeks and I love it.

[Clyde]

I've been playing Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney on the DS and Beyond Good & Evil HD on XBLA.

[BennyWhatever]

Beyond Good & Evil is amazing.

[Clyde]

Yeah, it is one of those underrated games I have heard about for a while that I decided to buy it, considering that the sequel is likely to get announce soon.

Dunno what you've been reading, but I've seen nothing but positive things about it

[BennyWhatever]

Anyone still playing Pokemon X/Y? I'm up to about 90 hours. Made a sweet Rain Dance team and a team based on the move Round (that ended up sucking a bit).

BG&E is a great game. Definitely a classic. They actually announced a sequel years ago but it's been in development hell for a while. There are even some leaked screenshots from it somewhere on the internet. There is even a teaser trailer. The guy who is making the game has just been too busy with the Rayman series to finish it.

If it was so great, why has there been a review embargo put in place on that game? It's so they don't want people to know it's shit before launch.

Honestly, no. I got tired of it and stopped playing it after I got the final badge. Who's idea was it to make an RPG with almost no story?


Also, is anyone else excited form Super Mario 3D world and Tearaway? They're getting great scores everywhere. Definitely gonna get them for Christmas

[Ubik]

Most big games have review embargoes on these days don't they? I seem to remember GTA V having one anyway. Although that said, Ryse does just look like a tech demo to me.

[Jhenrid]

I've heard the same things that Nagpo has about Ryse. Just think of it this way, Crytek made it and their history are the Crysis games. Visually great but a bit lacking.

[nagpo]

Recent review for Ryse: 2/5.

It's a shame because Ryse has such great graphics and I love that era in time.

[AB23]

Everything you said. Graphics look amazing and I find the roman/spartan era extremely interesting

Pretty much all reviews for the game have been mixed/poor, not that I'm surprised.

Almost all games have review embargoes so that no one rushes through the game to be the first to have a public review. When the actual embargo is up changes from game to game but it is usually within the week before sale.

I remember Activision sending no review copies for the Walking Dead: Survival Instinct which is what I would say is suspicious, since the game did get panned.

Definitely for Super Mario 3D World. I haven't seen much of Tearaway but the reviews it is getting are overwhelmingly positive. I own a Vita so I guess it's a must buy.

Yeah, I've kind of followed the sequels development even without playing the first game and I'm pretty sure the game will get announced next year. Like you said, development was on hold to work on Rayman Legends so I think we will see something soon. Maybe VGA/VGX? May be a bit soon but still possible.

[Macca]

Oh yeah okay, I take back what I said, this game is being panned. I had managed to find a few reviews online the other day and they were pretty positive. But now the embargo has been lifted there are tons of negative reviews flooding in.

I wish. At this point it's as likely as The Last Guardian ever being seen again.

The Last Guardian will be seen again!
