Feb 9th 2011 6:11PM (Joystiq)True Crime New York was not a dissappointment at all unless you do what most gamers do and over hype yourself. I am never dissappointed by games. I don't waste time overhyping myself, instead I enjoy them for what they are.
With that said New York had the better story and better structure of gameplay, yes it was glitchy but it wasn't unplayable by any means. It was an awesome game. I would however, put the two True Crimes on the same level of awesomeness.
As far as Guitar Hero, I am talking merely music here. The gameplay has remained largely the same and I never used any of the other features so I don't care about those. I'm talking merely, get some friends together and play some awesome songs. Anything beyond Guitar Hero World Tour had crap music in it for the most part so by default the games sucked regardless of anything else.
As for DJ Hero, there was potential to be great however, DJ-ing is a niche, very niche hobby/job/whatever you want to call it so I'm not surprised they aren't nearly as popular as GH series. Yes DJ Hero is a new take but again the music sucks in it. The mashups make no sense for the most part and most of the music is crap anyway. Or they put a lot of great songs with crap songs so IMO it ruins it.
Activision axing Guitar Hero and True Crime; Freestyle Games reportedly hit with layoffs [update]
Feb 9th 2011 4:28PM (Joystiq)Nope, first couple GH's are good but 5 and beyond are horrible. World Tour was the last good one.
True Crime on the PS2 were two of my favorite games on the console. Sure they had issues but they were awesome games, not to mention the first one featured two songs from my favorite music group of all time. I was really looking forward to True Crime HK and it sucks if it really is cancelled. However, United Front's Mod Nation game was rediculously hard so if True Crime Hong Kong would have been too, then I guess it's a good thing.
