The COD franchise's quest to absorb all other franchises, like some sort of frightening FPS AKIRA, continues unabated. If you've seen COD BLOPS THREE MP footage you know it's already absorbing TITANFALL and CRYSIS into itself, and now with the COD BLOPS THREE BUT WITH ZOMBIES footage we now know it intends to become BIOSHOCK 3 and THE DARKNESS 3 as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdLqsWDl16c Motto posted:It's really bad. http://www.siliconera.com/2015/07/10/devils-third-wont-be-published-by-nintendo-of-america-but-it-is-coming-here/

The failure of the Arkham (open) World http://www.giantbomb.com/articles/superheroes-cities-and-empty-streets/1100-5241/ "In the first game of the series, Rocksteady’s Batman: Arkham Asylum, this barely chafed against me at all. Asylum’s dangerous hub world connected separate levels filled with combat and stealth challenges. The whole thing had the plotting and pacing of a (good) Die Hard film. And while the detective mode challenges aren’t as developed as they would become in Arkham Origins and Arkham Knight, Asylum’s narrow focus ensured that the player still got to feel like the ever-observant Dark Knight. Over the course of the game, the player passed through the courtyards and tunnels of Arkham Asylum, watched as new threats appear and old ones were cleared away. Asylum’s version of the Batman fantasy highlighted how the hero’s intelligence and resilience let him win out against overwhelming odds: First, infiltrate a dangerous place. Then, survive long enough to learn its ins-and-outs (architecturally, historically, and socially). Finally, use that new knowledge to masterfully take down all of your adversaries. With the shift to an open world in Batman: Arkham City, Rocksteady did tap into some other elements of Batman but they still offered up the same basic fantasy. By giving you the ability to glide across the city, grapnel-boosting from one rooftop to another, Arkham City lets you try on Batman’s legendary mobility. By dividing the prison city into sections run by different adversaries, Rocksteady gave the player the thrill of taking on established rogues instead of just recently freed bad guys. And by filling the open world with conversations to eavesdrop on (and to interrupt with sudden violence), Arkham City puts you in the shoes of Batman the vigilant do-gooder, ready to arrive in the knick of time to dispense justice. But this is where the fantasy begins to fall apart. Scenes of Batman descending from the shadows to save the day are common across the franchise’s comics, films, and cartoons. But because there are no civilians to rescue, no living Gotham to protect, when Batman swoops down into a crowd of Arkham City’s goons it isn’t to save anything. It’s just to bust some skulls. To stop someone from poo poo talking him. To have a little fun. Throughout the series, developers have tried to assuage this disconnect in a few ways. First, they sprinkled the groups of enemies with special targets that will divulge info on side objectives, like Riddler trophies. And in Arkham Knight, sometimes the criminals are menacing a civilian: A lost and wounded firefighter. But these efforts feel mechanical and soulless. I’m not anyone’s hero. That firefighter would lay on the ground and wait to be saved forever. None of these threats are real. I’m just checking off a box and moving on. Underlying this problem is a disconnect in the way that criminals are depicted in the Arkham series from the way they are shown in many of the best examples of DC’s storytelling. In the intro to Arkham Knight, Police Commissioner Jim Gordon explains that the “only people left on the street are the kind that enjoy the chaos. Scum, criminals, and worse.” This free license to take out whoever, wherever misses one of the most interesting, recurring elements of Batman stories: Criminals don’t just arrive from the ether, fully formed and wholly evil. Like Batman himself, they have origin stories and sometimes even noble intentions. There are lots of ways to read Batman’s rogues gallery, but one of my favorite ways is to see them as a collection of people who’ve taken good things a little too far, sometimes even mirroring the history and traits of the Dark Knight. The Penguin has his own complex (and, because of how comics work, changing) history with Gotham’s class of elites--but unlike Bruce Wayne, he pursues wealth at any cost. Poison Ivy would certainly believe a Wayne Enterprises-funded report about irreversible climate changes, but her proposed solution to the problem would likely include the death of the scientists that did the research. Edward Nigma’s devotion to knowledge is admirable, but his desire to be the smartest person in the room often leaves everyone else in it dead. Bruce Wayne may don a second face when he fights crime, but unlike Harvey Dent, he keeps his identity solid and unified. While some Batman stories simply prop up Batman as defender of the status quo, the best ones explore the way these villains reflect the hero's own attributes back at him. It isn’t just the super-villainous bad guys who have origins, though. Carmine Falcone, Rupert Thorne, and the rest of Gotham’s mobsters all come from a place, too. And even the “scum, criminals, and worse” that work for these criminals tend to reflect some failure of Gotham City: Poverty, failure of education, a lack of opportunity. (It’s for reasons like this that Grant Morrison’s version of Batman doesn’t just beat the hell out of thugs: He hires former convicts, operates charities, and attempts to buoy the cultural value of Gotham.) All of this is why Gordon’s line sits so ill at ease with me. It says “If they’re in a place like this, they must be criminals. And if they’re criminals, go to town on ‘em.” And given the world we live in, invectives like that will never make me feel heroic. It isn’t only that Arkham Knight fails to humanize these villains, it’s that because of the way the game presents Gotham--empty of life, stuck in a state of emergency--it actually can’t. Those other Batman stories demonstrate the history, humanity, and purpose of the bad guys through scenes of Gotham alive and filled with people. Those stories offer us orphanages in disrepair, villains going on dates, ex-cons out of work and out of options, and criminal brilliance put to surprisingly moral use. Don’t get me wrong, every Batman story isn’t The Wire, nor does it need to be. But this deep into the Arkham series, I would like to have seen some of that angle represented in these games, especially as they transitioned further into Gotham proper. Perhaps what really stings for me is that so many other games have at least attempted to approximate the vibrance of cities. And some have been very successful. ... CD Projekt Red fills the world of The Witcher 3 with interesting people and places, and then doubles down on that in Novigrad, the game’s largest city. After hours spent in the no-man’s-land of Velen, where the player interacts mostly with scattered villages, woodland hermits, and the occasional military fortress, Novigrad feels like it overflows with people. Geralt’s presence as an outsider gives him unique potential in this cosmopolitan city, so he’s as important as he is in the wilderness. And yet Novigrad always seems somehow bigger than him. It is a meeting place for cultures, and the stories told in the city’s quests often address the tension and potential caused by Novigrad's diversity. Players are anything but heroes in GTA V: The game encourages us to make havoc in the faux-SoCal sprawl of Los Santos. We knock over convenience stores, chase rival criminals along the ocean-side highways, and rob bigger and bigger banks during increasingly spectacular set piece heists. And yet Los Santos feels “alive.” I say that knowing how silly it is. It’s not like the AI civilians of Los Santos have homes, or intricate routines built around “needs” or “desires,” or even the pulled-from-a-hat identities that Watch Dogs’ inhabitants did. It’s not like the cityscape grows or changes over time. But there’s something about the way pedestrians mime out their lives, eating hot dogs, absentmindedly checking their phones while they cross the street, glaring at you when you bump into them... And all of this is set in a world filled with posters and advertisements and music and suit shopping. So no, Los Santos isn’t actually alive like Los Angeles (or even Skyrim or The Sims 3), but it does live the way the waves do, in a collection of small motions that add up to mean something more. (And it is interesting that a game focused on explosive, illegal chaos better offers the joys of a city than a game that puts you in the shoes of a hero.) ... And Gotham and Metropolis are our own cities extended to their most ambitious and precarious. They are the cities of our dreams. Brighter, cleaner, fairer; darker, more historic, more complex. And so the promises of these cities must be “more” too. At the core of it this is my problem: this is why I want to see Gotham alive with people and culture and museums and parties and schools and celebrations and life. Because superhero stories make the most sense to me when the promises of their cities are made clear. The promise is vital, and Rocksteady’s Gotham promises nothing. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OLkPnpAaBA In the middle of writing this piece, I find this video clip. Someone’s modded Arkham Knight so that they can leave the diner and explore pre-evacuation Gotham. And what a sight it is. As the trucks and buses pass through the player like ghosts, you can tell that these poorly textured civilian vehicles were not meant to be closely examined. In "detective mode," which gives him a sort of X-Ray vision, he can see the skeletons of the diner patrons subtly mimic life--a gesture here, a shift there. But the people outside the diner have no bones. They're solid, just a mass of what looks like red clay, frozen in strange, debug poses: Arms out in a T shape; hovering in the air in a seated position, arms resting on an invisible steering wheel. Despite all this, I love it. The ambient rumble of cars passing by and the glow of the neon signage of the theater district. The way both sound and light are filtered through the rain. It is a shadow of a shadow of the game I want, but I love it...."

If you're wondering why their video carries any more weight than any one of a million people opining on Half Life 3 on youtube, well, they did leak news of Dark Souls 3 before anyone else. So they have a thing with threes. So there you go. bloodychill posted:The ME3 logic is flawed. I get that Valve might think it but there are other big games with heavy expectations that have come out and not earned the amount of vitriol that ME3 did. It wasn't a vocal minority like with Bioshock Infinite or DA:I. The ending was universally panned. And that poo poo was paired with Sim City, another extremely hyped-up universally panned game. EA earned their scorn from that couple of years. Sleeveless posted:If you've listened to any interview with Gabe Newell from the past five years he's super into the idea of Steam becoming a platform for generating content as well as selling it, actually making games has taken a backseat to fetishising the "maker" community and adding a bunch of skinner box stuff like trading cards and hats while proselytizing the usual futurist bullshit about how all our problems will be solved by the free market because something something people working in their garages.
