GT sports reminds me of GT2000.And a proper flagship GT game.
Fair enough, that's pretty diverse games I had to say, but not sure about that Gears 5. That franchise drop hard after Bleszinski left. How about RE 2 Remake, have you play it? I find it really good. Also this list does not contain Control which makes me sad...
The game is super short and shallow as fuck, it's better than super bad Gears 4, but it has nothing on OG trilogy. Bleszinski needs to come back.Yeah, I get that I'm in the minority, but I loved Gears 5. The changes made the level structure was awesome (loved the open world sections); having linear acts for 1 and 4, then more opened areas in 2 and 3 was a ice change.
I haven't played RE2 remake yet, but its installed on my PS4. And control is also on my list, but I'll wait to play the next gen version.

Don't understand the hate on him from the media , didn't meant about his latest game , it's actually happened way back .The game is super short and shallow as fuck, it's better than super bad Gears 4, but it has nothing on OG trilogy. Bleszinski needs to come back.
I think the variety of franchises was better last gen. Everything has conformed into something that sells vs actual risk taking. A lot of games this gen have been safe. failure really only arises with a battleroyale that just doesnt take off or service game. Or they put so much micro in the government is looking into them.
Man ! Just relax and build a gaming PC, you don't even need to do it every 5 years , don't take what the media saying about upgrading yours , it's just nonsense for the most part , just build one and you will be fine , don't listen to those who says gaming PCs is irrelevant , they don't know what they are talking about. II have said since 2008 that the PS3/360/Wii Era (7th generation) was the absolute bottom.
Even as a bright eyed 12-13 year old I noticed a massive quality dip in both existing franchises and new IPs. Games mostly performed worse than the 6th gen days, controls felt clunkier than most games I had played on PS2, and as a person who is unable to use motion controls, the introduction of Six axis and the Wii remote made me fear my days of gaming were numbered. We had the introduction of on disc DLC. Console manufacturers were removing core features (Not gonna go into anymore detail lest I write a 5 post rant) and a lot of games had insanely low amounts of content compared to most 6th gen titles. Even top tier games like GTA were missing shit that should have been standard.
Hell even games like Ratchet & Clank while excellent...were still less excellent than their PS2 counterparts. The first two uncharted games were the only games that to me resembled a true game (Good controls, work hard to unlock a lot of cheats and other goodies)
The increased cost of HD development and complex tools (*cough*Cell*cough) tanked a lot of smaller studios and forced these bad business practices. Remember online passes?
Also, I know all PS4s and Xbox Ones will also fail eventually but christ the 360 and PS3 are fucking time bombs. PS3 blu-ray drives even on brand new super slims are not going to have a long life. The goddamn PS3 makes data backup a pain in the ass. HDDs can't be dropped into a new PS3 without formatting the drive. The backup utility straight up fails if even it doesn't like one file. Most PS3 saves are tied to a specific console unless you use the cloud. You can't backup PS1/PS2 saves to the cloud. My PS3 fat had its GPU melt costing me all of my life long PS3/PS2/PS1 saves due to fucked backup options. These consoles I feel will be the quickest to die off due to limited parts and a faster rate of decay on existing units.
Once great franchises nosedived. Soul Calibur and Final Fantasy notably. (I actually like 13 and 13-2, but geez, they ain't the games of old)
I feel like we're in a renaissance in the 8th gen, all 3 consoles are much more reliable, overall game quality and bang for your buck has gone way up. So many great games from earlier in this generation to this year, backup options are easier, and yeah I know some don't like the DLC practices, but honestly, a good chunk of it from my perspective is either single player expansions or cosmetic only. Development tools are obviously much better. The switch to x86 will ensure future consoles remain backwards compatible at least to this point. Services like game pass and PS now have made gaming more accessible to folks who can't continually drop $60 on new games. Developers are providing more and more graphics and control options than ever before.
And the most important part, personally? I am overwhelmed with too many wonderful games to play, from indies to great AAA games. Heck we got a good Soul Calibur game since god knows how long.
This gen made gaming great again.
True , 9th gen seems to be an extension of what we already have.It's weird.
PS3/XBOX360 Era japanese devs kept trying to copy COD and failed miserably.
This gen Western developers kept trying to find their LIVE SERVICE game and failed miserably.
Even though i really miss Bioware and Bethesda making great games, i prefer this generation, and i don't think it's close honestly.
Sure, but you still have onRush, from most of the team, looked like shit in trailers, but it's really fun.No Motorstorm, no GTA = worse generation.

Is it really a aaa ip? , cause I don't feel it this wayPS360 was nothing special, if anything it was the start of the formulaic Assassins Creedification of AAA titles.
There things similar there, maps design, model of handling and how you can destroy someone, etc. I would not discredit the game, if you are missing out on Motostorm, it's basically Evolution studio game. That game is probably named onRush, because it was made at this guy at helm:Got it, it's not bad but it's no Motorstorm.
Pacific Rift remaster please Sony.
I see it as the Wii U was simply a Switch prototype, they had the 'idea' /Intention of taking console gaming far from the system/house but the Switch tech didn't existed back in 2012 less when they were designing the system so they came up with this clumsy compromise, it even had very low power consumption so Nintendo wouldn't have problem porting their games later. They could have VERY easily made the Wii U a little stronger to have a shot at a few Xbox ONE ports but prioritized low power instead.The Switch and the WiiU are both 8th gen. Nintendo does not control when generations start, and this is not the first generation where a platform holder has released two systems. The Atari 2600 and 5200 are both 2nd gen systems for instance.
I also strongly disagree on the comparative quality of WiiU games. I mean let's be fair, given that the WiiU sold less than the Vita and the Switch is the fastest selling console in US history, it's safe to say your opinion does not match reality.
Infact with the exception of Mario Kart most everything has either been outdone by their Switch sequels or been a comparatively minor blip sales wise when ported over. Breath of rhe Wild is about the best game that was on both, and may as well have not released on WiiU.
Meanwhile Mario Oddysey, Ringfit Adventure, Arms, Splatoon 2, Links Awakening, Smash, Mario Maker 2, the Pokemon games, Fire Emblem 3 kingdoms and Animal Crossing have all been amazing well received critically and commercially, pretty much all blowing past WiiU's best.
The Switch has better games, better hardware, and a better gimmick, and sold amazingly well because people love it.
The WiiU sold like shit, because it was shit.
Really? The PS3/360 era brought us many innovations, original ideas and unique experiences, even if some of them ended up dying. Among many others these are all notable games;PS360 was nothing special, if anything it was the start of the formulaic Assassins Creedification of AAA titles.
Specwise of the current gen hardware is also a letdown , best devs seems to be hiding for the whole generation because of it probably, they just can't change their vision to make games on a weaker hardware like the devs behind the medium , devs behind bioshock probably on the same boat and many others.Really?

Look at that variety. And you're gonna tell me it was all Assassin's Creed-like games..? Many of those are completely new blockbuster franchises (Uncharted, Mass Effect, TLoU, RDR, Bioshock, Gears of War, Dark Souls), some of them are revivals of franchises that had been dead (or shovelware) for a long time (Street Fighter, Tomb Raider, Deus Ex), many of them are completely unique (Portal, Mirror's Edge, Rock Band, Journey, Minecraft), and many of the rest have done something revolutionary to make them a success despite not necessarily being unique (COD:MW, GTA V, Burnout Paradise).
What did we have in the PS4/X1/Switch gen? The generation is littered with remasters and battle royale games after PUBG became popular. Not to mention it is the generation where loot boxes and SJW garbage took over gaming. Sure, there are a few exceptionally good games... Hellblade, The Witcher 3, Ori, Horizon Zero Dawn, Zelda BotW to name a few... But most of them are either uninspired sequels, or they have been ruined by either loot boxes or SJW stuff as previously mentioned.
There was very little in this gen that makes me think gaming has actually progressed. It was mostly more of the same with shinier graphics.
Most likely not, because the open-world games was thing of rarity, because it requires the whole team pulling together, to pull that open world off....*cough* since the memory restriction was pretty hardcore and when you look at the scope games are done today, it's certainly some massive improvements everywhere. For the scope and well....Specwise of the current gen hardware is also a letdown , best devs seems to be hiding for the whole generation because of it probably, they just can't change their vision to make games on a weaker hardware like the devs behind the medium , devs behind bioshock probably on the same boat and many others.
The political agenda part is true, but microtransactions were definitely being spearheaded that generation.Games weren't full of political agenda and microtransaction, so yeah, they were better.
My gtx 670 with 2.4 TF runs bioshock Infinite night and day better than recently updated version of the xbox one x , the cpu plays a big role and that's a fact.Most likely not, because the open-world games was thing of rarity, because it requires the whole team pulling together, to pull that open world off....*cough* since the memory restriction was pretty hardcore and when you look at the scope games are done today, it's certainly some massive improvements everywhere.

One think with improved fuck all is physics, in general, but Control is basically like PhysX enabled games last gen (on PC)
I'm not trying to be sarcastic, it's the truth and it hurts to say that .My gtx 670 with 2.4 TF runs bioshock Infinite night and day better than recently updated version of the xbox one x , the cpu plays a big role and that's a fact.
Umm, yeah that too, but the were far more restrictive when it comes to memory to fit shit in there. Like with the amount.My gtx 670 with 2.4 TF runs bioshock Infinite night and day better than recently updated version of the xbox one x , the cpu plays a big role and that's a fact.
i did not have time to respond, so I don't disagree. Besides, it's tough to compare RISC and CISC CPU.I'm not trying to be sarcastic, it's the truth and it hurts to say that .
Same thing goes with borderlands 2 , resident evil 6 , pretty much all the games released between 2010 -2013.I'm not trying to be sarcastic, it's the truth and it hurts to say that .
Updates will improve dramatically on next gen consoles, so there is that.It felt like a much more exciting time, just because the hardware was actually a noticeable step above the rest.
However, it actually felt like the beginning of the end of gaming. Studios were shutting down in mass, Publishers were sneaking in microtransactions when no one was looking, day 1 patches were about to go mainstream, games just got less riskier/innovative in general.
I don't actually blame the PS3/360 hardware for this, they were just apart of the shitty ride that ultimately lead to the state of gaming today.
That's kind of good pointLet me put it this way - many people ask for many PS360 remasters, but no one is asking for even a patch for PS4/XB1 titles, and that alone tells A LOT.
I feel like design in games hasn’t moved forward much in the last generation....
I'm not saying games like The Witcher ,or what have you, could have been made but the seeds were well planted and watered....examine games from PS1/N64 into GCN/PS2/XB era...we saw incredible leaps in what could be done from a design perspective...I feel the last two generations are just prettier more refined versions of those ideas. Which is awesome in its own right, but what are we doing from a gameplay/interaction standpoint that we haven’t done before? Next gen doesn’t look to change that either...
I'm done with underperformed games like we happy few, have no choice but to keep it for the series x to see a frame boost as well as many other games.Let me put it this way - many people ask for many PS360 remasters, but no one is asking for even a patch for PS4/XB1 titles, and that alone tells A LOT.
