Avalerion posted:Is The Sims an ea franchise? That's pretty big, especially with the casual crowd, could see it fitting on the switch. Their previous console attempts were a little janky, but generally serviceable. I recall enjoying The Urbz as a kind of weird-rear end Animal Crossinglike, same with MySims, which was even more of an Animal Crossing clone. Prior attempts to make an actual version of The Sims 2 were partial or total failures on console because of memory limitations and the fact that DLC hadn't been invented yet. A system like Switch could easily handle Sims 4, with some doctoring, and has the infrastructure to handle content expansions as DLC. Uh, that said I'd almost rather see them make another attempt at MySims, because the first one at least had some kind of interesting exploration-based progression, and the characters were really fun. I think they could take ideas developed in Minecraft or Dragon Quest Builders to really expand on the system of crafting and structural design that MySims relied on.

Man you just reminded me of the invincibility code in Robocod where you had to collect items in the correct order so the first letters spelled CHEAT. I'm not sure if I ever beat it without that....

I'm now noticing all these little moments where they purposely gently caress with you and it makes me appreciate it even more. like what, outside the ghost houses? I've played it so many times that the game is basically memorized and I can play it kind of mindlessly

well why not posted:Lol at Scorpio being PARADIGM SHIFTING. It's not even portable, what a joke. It is shifting a paradigm in the sense that MS is doing something no console manufacturer has ever done before: spending an entire year hyping that they are about to shoot themselves in the foot by fragmenting their already diminished userbase. (Although apparently PSVR is selling well, so maybe the Scorpio won't be a bad gamble. We'll see.) Still, this is exactly the kind of headline you definitely want to see a month from the big reveal if you are MS: "Very few gamers are interested in buying Project Scorpio or PS4 Pro, study finds"

Not a Children posted:like what, outside the ghost houses? One that comes to mind is an auto-scrolling level fairly early in the game that has platforms cycling up and down that'll crush you. For the first four or five platforms if you run to the far edge of the screen you'll get past them, but then you hit one that starts cycling back up and the far edge is nowhere in sight, and if you don't double back to the left side and get off you die. They get you used to it working one way, then they throw you a little curveball.

NBA would be fun if they didn't lock 90% of the players in packs that you have to unlock through playing and if it didn't take stupidly long to load each round.

VR is gaming's version of 3D televisions. Every company is jumping on because no one wants to be left behind, but it's expensive and won't be a return on investment because it is in direct contradiction of the reason most people buy and play games/watch television; it takes a relaxing, mostly passive interaction with a medium into an intense active interaction.

Imagined posted:VR is dead until they figure out how to make it a loooooooot cheaper and wireless. That's what PSVR and things like Samsung Gear VR are for (compared to a full-blown Oculus or Vive setup at least). Just gotta wait and let them do rote evolutionary iterations for a few years until they're down to something reasonable and powerful enough to pull it all off. Foveated rendering's likely to help a lot, once everyone jumps on that bandwagon at least.

There are just so many fewer people interested in strapping a thing to their face to play games than there are people interested in sitting on their couch with a gamepad, still able to talk to their spouse/friends/half-watch a show on their phone. The hardware will get cheap, but the costs of creating the content, which isn't going to be usable outside VR and work completely differently than non-VR games, won't. The whole thing is going to quietly settle into a sim racing/spaceships niche for turbo nerds and kitschy mall kiosk poo poo for everyone else.

3 has better graphics, level design, and I'll say it, music. It has the coolest atmosphere of the three as well and cool overworld adventure mechanics. The event design is really cool as well. Hidden stages are at just the right difficulty level to find, you have to look for them but they're not obtuse.

well why not posted:Not sure on dates, but Death Stranding, God Of War, Gran Turismo, The Last of Us Pt. 2 and Knack 2 are all exclusives for PS4. Sonys games for the rest of the year are going to be Crash trilogy Wipeout collection Yakuza kiwami Uncharted 4 standalone expansion Days gone Maybe knack 2 but probably see it after new year Their fall is really all about activision marketing deals though with destiny and codww2 so expect a lot about both in their e3. They are gearing up to sell a lot of games and consoles on that alone. Gow is a spring 2018 game Death stranding and tlou2 are going to stretch past next e3 They've had an incredible 6 months and some big stuff still coming at a less frantic pace, i laughed at the post you quoted acting like they failed 2017 Real hurthling! fucked around with this message at 17:13 on May 10, 2017 |

Empress Brosephine posted:I don't think VR is a failure and neither is the switch which is being outsold right now by VR so Yeah I just checked the numbers, as of November Vive had sold 140,000, they are said to have sold twice as many as Oculus, and as of January PSVR had sold 900,000. This is all sub early WiiU level.

Real hurthling! posted:
I probably won't buy one but the PS4 is doing quite well. Even if xbone wasn't a joke it'd still be well positioned. This probably isn't the last PS platform but I wouldn't be surprised if the xbox division got remodelled once Scorpio shudders to it's death. I can see why they're making a juicier bone but almsot everyone who cares about more power is slowly switching over to the weird PC building renaissance that's going on thanks to social media and some really good design / marketing from PC compontent manufacturers.

Not even Gunpei Yokoi thought that. He was like "This product needs a few years" and Nintendo was like "Nah we're releasing it this year. Hey this thing was a failure!" Then he was like "I resign in disgrace* then he invented the Wonderswan, and then he died.
