Mar 21st 2012 8:18AM (Joystiq)Hudson: 'Your feedback has always mattered' in Mass Effect 3, even now
Mar 18th 2012 10:59PM (Joystiq)He did say "This is not the last you'll hear of Commander Shepard." Of course what that means could be a number of things.
1. DLC that continues after the ending
2. ME3 - Sheppard Lives!! games to be released in the fall (similar to what they did with AC2)
3. ME4 or whatever it will be called with do flash backs or resurrect Sheppard onces again and discover Liara is still alive and they both buy a summer cottage by a lake and frolic in the water.
4. Sheppards exploits prior to ME3 will be revealed via comics or novels.
You pick.
I'll keep on waiting to see what comes out for it and maybe pick the game up when a possible GOTY edition comes out..
Silent Hill: Downpour review: When you're strange
Mar 13th 2012 10:38PM (Joystiq)Silent Hill freaked me out and ... was a long game of spine tingling terror with multiple endings to the game depending on what you did. Yep, Mass Effect was not the first to do this.
Silent Hill 2 was great visually and story, although a short game. The hospital with the nurses again... freaked me out. And if you want a good experience you have to get the Greatest Hits disc for the PS2 or the Xbox version so you can play both James through the main story and then play as Maria for a second play through from her perspective.
Silent 3, although maybe not the best was definitely trying to re-capture what the first gave us and tried to bring things back full circle to the original.
IF you can play these games, either having the original discs or the new HD versions with the new audio ( disappointment) then do it before trying the others.
Save on enough Myst games for a full lifestyle change
Mar 4th 2012 11:21AM (Joystiq)Would be a good idea as much as it may not be profitable to either party.
Official Assassin's Creed 3 site begins snowy countdown [update]
Mar 3rd 2012 6:49PM (Joystiq)Still wish they would have focussed on maybe a Victorian era in London or better yet, Paris France.
Anyway, I will let the diehard fans purchase the game first and see what others think. Maybe pick it up used later in 2013. Assuming the world hasn't ended by that time. :0
For now, I am definitely more hyped up about ME3... not AC3.
More Assassin's Creed 3 leakage, this time from Game Informer
Mar 1st 2012 10:33AM (Joystiq)The beauty of this series was the cultural and historical uniqueness to the game. Granted if you lived in the middle east or italy you know the places depicted in the game. But the USA? Historical sites? in that period? I'll pass this game if thats where we are going. The European/Mid East nature of the game brought alot to the story.
If they are going to pick a revolution that do it France or something with the odd trip to Britain and/ or Germany. But the USA? There are enough games out there that ALL take place in the US in some form of another.
Hopefully the next series after Desmonds story will take us to China or Japan, if Embers was any hint to that. I bet that would be a good business decision for Ubi. :)
Insomniac done with Resistance
Jan 26th 2012 11:54AM (Joystiq)R2 had some good elements. Tension and combat but for me it fell off at the end and the end was melodramatic for me.
Not played R3. Will do when I can afford to binge on games again. Assassins Creed series has me bogged down.
Overall, what I have played is a decent enough. Enjoyable. Comparing it to Gears of War series is bad. I played Gears with friends off and on and found it bland and repetitive to my taste. Boring story. Point is, to each their own. Having a variety is what matters, so all of us Gamers have something to play. :) And yes, I am a Halo fan but stopped because the focus in most FPS games now is Multiplayer at the sarcrifice of a decent story. Come on Half Life 3... WE'RE WAITING.
Sorry to see Insomniac drop it but it would seem they game it a try with Sony and Sony had more success with KZ. Good they have parted ways and hopefully excel with their new project.
Skyrim 1.4 detailed, PC 'Creation Kit' for mods coming soon
Jan 20th 2012 9:41AM (Joystiq)Hope this makes the game that much more better to play.
Regardless I want to play this game eventually but I will wait for a GOTY Edition with all the patches and dlc in one package. I am glad they took to trying to fix issues this time round compared to Fallout 3 (for the PS3).
