Support NeoGAF

[Cynical_Aries]

I really enjoyed it, there better be some DLC coming or "There will be trouble"

 

[MiguelItUp]

You're kind of right. Not their first game, but they did a Rambo game in 2014 which was a rail-gun shooter.
Since Teyon today is way more advanced and know their shit, they should try again.
The IP is too valueable and complex for a shitty rail-gun shooter.

Ah, I was referring to their first title around a big IP, I didn't really pay attention to what came before then if at all, haha. Yup! I agree!

 

[SF Kosmo]

Thats not what I mean. What I mean is there's no present day agenda seeping through here. There's no "message." There's no bullshit phony pandering of any kind. It's like the anti 2023 game.

Robocop the movie has an agenda and a message, one that is pretty relevant in 2023. If that's missing from the game, then it feels like they missed the point of the film.

Of course a good chunk of the audience and both of the sequels managed to miss that point as well, so...

 

[YuLY]

Die Hard, Escape From NY or Big Trouble In Little China please

shiet, I wouldnt mind any of those. Altho I kinda wanna see these guys have a go at a Blade Runner game, we never got a proper game in that universe, except that adventure point and click one.

 

[Sleepwalker]

I didn't enjoy this game that much, but ultimately I'm happy to support it. Hopefully we get some more movie tie in games from them.

 

[Moses85]

After the great Terminator game, this was a safe bet!

I haven't played the game yet, but like... isn't Robocop a super political satire on the militirization of police?

Could we just let video games be video games, dude? Its a kickass action sci-fi flick based on the zeitgeist of the time.

The less we drag up politics or how the modern day connect to the plot, the better.

Really the reason why they would hate it is that it is "too ironic" and they don't feel the "representation" is strong enough in the characters. They don't really care that much about politics.

 

[semiconscious]

the good news: the return of successful double-a games!
the bad news: besides these guys, does anyone else still remember how to make genuinely good ones?...

Not many around but there are still a few. Flying Wild Hog for example the guys who made Evil West, or Spiders who made Greedfall, But yea in general its either AAA or indie.
Maybe Trepang2 was successful (it was a good game) and that studio can also start doing some AA shooters.

 

[nani17]

Simple math, give the fans what they want and make it fun.

We hear it EA completely agree with your statement as we certainly always give the fans what they want. That's not forget we made loot boxes popular and you're gonna love Sims 5. It's free to play and it's only going to cost you 2 or 5 dollars to get new wallpaper for your home

 

[YCoCg]

Rambo next,

They've already done that, I think that was their first game, ...it's not good. They're certainly a dev who's getting better with each release.

Who cares about that lol shit is fun

 

[Putonahappyface]

Well deserved!

More corporitization and commercialization of government. OCP massively underfunded police in the name of profit.

I wish other devs would follow this simple fact. I know it's all subjective, but I've only bought two games so far this year and maybe a third in December.

Yeah Robocop is pretty on the nose with it's anti oligarchy/ crony capitalism satire.

 

[phant0m]

Game slaps and is priced right, so good for them

 

[Guileless]

Did games press reviewers take issue with it being less polished than a game with thousands of people on three continents working on it?

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Yeah Robocop is pretty on the nose with it's anti oligarchy/ crony capitalism satire.

Then you have Eurogamer’s review complaining that RoboCop portrays the police as well meaning but underfunded, instead of as racist, overfunded, and corrupt like real life police.

 

[Krappadizzle]

The audacity.

 

[Salmon Snake]

Commando do next where you can also play as Bennett.

 

[Karppuuna]

Its a good game and no bullshit involved and its true to the lore so thats what you get.

 

[OmegaSupreme]

Commando do next where you can also play as Bennett.

Cracking idea. I'm kinda surprised there wasn't an nes Commando game. Seems like it would have been a perfect game for a contra like back then.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Fuck those guys, what a stupid fucking take

SCI-FI !? IT CAN BE ANYTHIN IT WANTS!

What did they want? If a dev makes a "real life" police that is racist / overfunded and corrupt then they would be the first with the fucking pikes saying that it's all too real and that devs are insensitive.

But wait, Robocop is the literal definition of overfunded by a corrupt company, I mean fuck, you have super robots while the plebs are still on CRT TVs. Corrupted? Yes! Some cops are addicted to nuke, on top of Robocop himself using way excessive force. What a pristine image of cops.

Fucking clowns

 

[//DEVIL//]

Surprise surprise ! Good gamss sell !

 

[Bruno_Arrais85]

now waiting for the Dread game.

 

[Deerock71]

1) Make an entertaining game.
2) Cut out the bullshit.
3) Make it on a AA budget.
4) PROFIIIT!

 

[Vick]

Loved the game, my true RoboCop 3 and such an honest piece of work that simply felt miraculous in 2023.

Teyon and Piotr Łatocha deserve all the success, and I hope they'll never bend to "external pressures" in order to deliver what they want for their stories, as brillantly stated in a meta conversation with Pickles in the game.

Shame they didn't get more recognition for their Terminator: Resistence as well which I probably liked even more as a videogame, despite being a much bigger RoboCop head than Terminator, for its more complex game structure, mechanics, and offering of a totally unexpected amount of agency along with that sublime and meaningful exploration, to finish with real emotions in its third act which is absolutely insane given the AA at best level of facial animations and character design.

I really love these guys.

 

[Eiknarf]

Next they should do THEY LIVE

 

[JusticeForAll]

Well deserved. I loved this game. Biggest surprise in a long time.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

If we're talking what they should do next Snake is long overdue for a final appearance...

Snake Pliskin that is. Escape from Earth, Carpenter would do the script for sure to be involved in a video game.

 

[Red5]

Honestly I think they have what it takes to make a decent Aliens Colonial Marines game or Aliens vs Predator game.

 

[RAIDEN1]

They should defiantly do a Predator game, we haven't had a stand-alone Predator game in years, forget AVP....they could have it so it switches from 1st person to 3rd....

 

[Eiknarf]

Roadhouse

That could be fun

However we already have SIFU, which, although the characters and settings are Asian, in away, fights just like the movie

Road House would be an American Bar version

 

[Duchess]

+1 to these guys doing a Dredd game! Imagine a semi open world, set in Mega City One!

 

[Lucifers Beard]

I need to carry on playing this. I bought this just to support developers who have a passion for making games that they actually want to make. Not very far in but you can see the passion that went into this one. Definitely Dredd next.

 

[havoc00]

It's genuinely heartwarming to see Teyon go from shovelware to a dogshit Rambo game to an ok Terminator game to a legitimately good Robocop game

 

[Porticus]

But what about engagement?

 

[Flutta]

After the great Terminator game, this was a safe bet!

Which one was that?

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Nice now how about some DLC and multiplayer.

 

[bender]

The demo was really surprising as I was expecting a straightforward shooter. Glad they've found success.

 

[Deft Beck]

Good for them! We need more AA games like it.

 

[Vick]

Which one was that?

Amazing survival/FPS game.

 

[ozz ex machina]

Honestly though, I’d like them to stick with Verhoeven and do a Starship Troopers game.

Absolutely. But let's be real they need to do showgirls next.

 

[mckmas8808]

I bought it before reviews even hit. It said Robocop on the box. Easy decision.

This is what you should be doing with your money as often as possible. These guys go from 500k to 2 million and shit their pants. Now they can change how they approach their next game. Your next typical AAA sequel will go from 10 million to 20 million and nothing changes.

I hate when a AAA game sells 10 million and it's a disappointment to the publisher. That sucks.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Happy for them in this regard even if I never follow their works.

 

[T-0800]

Fuck yeah, predator next.

It's not single player but I suggest you check out Predator Hunting Grounds if you have a PS5. Runs at 60fps on there. PS4 not so much.

They should make this next.

 

[CGNoire]

Damn, I have to rewatch Escape from NY / LA soon ...


The Urban movie was still good though

I like both.
