Compared to the likes of Oblivion , Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning focused on making engaging combat with incredibly flexible character customization. This game did flexible classes before Skyrim did. The setting had great care put into it, but it is such a shame this series never took off or got a sequel.
While Skate 4 's no-show could be part of a licensing problem - the game would feature a ton of music and clothing brands, after all - it's nonetheless disappointing that digital skaters have to stick with the last-gen entry if they want to enter the Hall of M
A third title was created as recent as 2017, but that title pulled away from the massive battles of the first and the tactical gameplay of the second, resulting in no fans being satisfied. As far as most are concerned, the last true Dawn of War title was the second game, with its last expansion releasing in 2011. Few RTS titles could combine epic spectacle with casual RTS gameplay the way Relic did with Dawn of War .
It's no secret that Microsoft has struggled to make the Xbox brand catch on in Japan, but that's not due to a lack of trying. With the Xbox 360, Microsoft commissioned Final Fantasy creator Hironobu Sakaguchi and his Mistwalker Studio to create JRPG exclusive games for the platform. This included Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey , with the latter being particularly well-received by fans of the genre. With reports of Phil Spencer visiting Japan studios about Xbox Series X games , it seems like a Lost Odyssey sequel could be a great way for the Xbox brand to once again try getting a foothold in the Japanese game mar
The Assassin's Creed franchise is in a bit of a weird spot. Ubisoft has made it clear that it plans to keep updating Assassin's Creed Odyssey with fresh new content, but strong rumors of a new Assassin's Creed game have been around for a while, with a Roman and Viking setting both seeming pretty likely. Instead, Ubisoft focused on Watch Dogs Legion during its press conference, which is admittedly a bit like a modern day Assassin's Creed. However , the lack of a new Assassin's Creed still left a hidden blade-shaped hole in the hearts of many gam
Sandbox titles focused on causing as much chaos as possible are seldom these days. The only games that fulfill that fantasy are Just Cause and Grand Theft Auto , although the latter is more focused on satire.
EA announced a new Dragon Age months ago but hasn't revealed any major information about the game since then. It seems likely that EA and Bioware are waiting until the game is 100% ready to show anything off, especially after the disastrous launches of both Mass Effect: Andromeda and Anthem tarnished the reputation of BioWare, a studio once lauded for its masterful games. Nonetheless, the absence of Dragon Age was felt during the EA Play conference this year, forcing Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order to pick up most of the story-driven sl
Naturally, that's an incredibly important next step for Xbox too considering the fact that this current console generation hasn't exactly been smooth sailing for Microsoft . Sure, it's easy to blame that on the Xbox One's unfortunate E3 reveal back in 2014, but the reality is that Microsoft could never deliver where it needed to most: huge exclusives. While PlayStation 4 has given fans some of the most groundbreaking experiences of this entire generation, Microsoft has struggled to give its customers any significant exclusives outside of the Gears of War or Halo series. Next-gen is shaping up to be a game-changer, but new IP alone either won't cut
The Skate franchise has earned just about as much of a reputation as the Tony Hawk games at this point, and it seems like a no-brainer that EA would want to capitalize on its popularity sooner rather than later. When Skate 3 was added to Xbox One Backward Compatibility , many gamers began speculating that a new game was on the way, but no announcement c
The city the player runs through is mostly white, matching with the dizzying heights the player runs through. Red ramps and pipes guide the player on what is interactive. The actual fighting in this game is rather dull, view site… but it is so infrequent it never harms the experience of running through skyscrapers like a pro. Its sequel, Mirror's Edge Catalyst didn't improve in the areas the original struggled with, resulting in mixed critical reviews.
However, Fable 4 rumors have been popping up quite a bit lately, leading gamers to suspect an announcement was imminent. Unfortunately, no such announcement was made, though it's possible Microsoft could be saving Fable 4 for next year as an early Project Scarlett rele
These spectacular showcases will be excellent outlets for both major console manufacturers to sell their upcoming new hardware, with Microsoft and Sony likely to announce tons of new games, reveal some stunning next-generation gameplay , and unveil some groundbreaking new entries in their most iconic franchises. For many, the latter of these prospects is without question the most exciting, especially as new consoles mean more expansive ways of tackling some of gaming's most important
