Video Game General 6.4: New Halo? What else?

New Vegas is still the best FPS Fallout to this day, imo.

Oh, another good Metroidvania game I enjoyed besides Guacamelee is the Shantae series. Those games just ooze style and charm. Everything is so vibrant and breathes life into the game. All of the abilities shantae gets throughout just add to the charm as well. All the NPC’s and enemies are so creative and unique looking.

Couldn’t tell you what the story is about except I know Shantae is half genie and her best friend/arch rival is a pirate named Risky Boots. Who is equally as arodable as Shantae.

:heart:

Is it over?

Yeah, it was kinda lame. Bunch of VR stuff. Days Gone video. Oh, and Jax, Kung Lao and Lui Kang.

Couldn’t make the thread since I was at work but I did see it was getting close to that mark. Shame the thread can’t even survive until E3 no mo.

Also it’s going to take some time for Sony to learn how to do this. I was hoping for more but expected underwhelming.

That MK 11 trailer. CAPCOM, THIS IS HOW YOU SHOULD MARKET A GAME AND MAKE A GAME.

Some people may not like netherealm games but the passion behind the games they make is undeniable. The game looks fabulous, graphics are insane, art direction is good. Why the fuck can’t capcom make a fighting game that looks like this? Shame on them.

Netherrealms hasn’t missed a beat since MKvDCU. MKvDCU was great but they couldn’t make it the game they wanted since Midway was going through bankruptcy. So because of that they couldn’t get the patches and DLC out. Which is a shame. MK2k11, both injustices and MKXL though? Greatness. I didn’t like what I saw of MK11 at first but I’m warming up to it a lot.

Its funny that the laughing stock of the fgc is now the most consistent when it comes to quality.

@Stuart_Hayden - I guess no ones told you.

@chadouken - LOL, this is funny because Super Metroid is actually a GIRL.

Even funnier is that the game isn’t named Super Samus. The little metroid at the end could be male…

Money I’d guess. Looking at Mortal Kombat and its high-end tech I think it’s safe to assume that Netherrealm simply operates on a budget way higher than Capcom’s.

Netherrealms got that Warner Bros money. Capcom just has what they’re comfortable giving projects. Which isn’t much. Then Capcom bitches about negative feedback and under performance blaming it on the team that made it and not lack of faith or funding in the project.

Capcom is slowly making its way back into the good graces but they still have a lot to make up for. 2008 until now is a lot of ground to cover.

Pauly eventually beat the game with the help of Miiverse (RIP).

Such a nice little anecdote from the WiiU era.

Did you see how DMC5 looks? I doubt thats the issue.

SFV looks good. It’s just some of the models that get outsourced.

That or they spent the budget on Chun’s face.

The cinematic story looked great, unfortunately it was majority movie and little gameplay.

Don’t forget her $4-7 dlc costumes.

I remember the first thing I ever posted on MiiVerse was a big ol’ cock and balls. Yeah, that got taken down pretty quick.
