That vanillaware mech game should be coming out this year right? Although there hasn't been any actual gameplay or information beyond "we are working on it" and "check out this drawing of a mecha girl"

Since Mass Effect, Deus Ex, and Hitman are all dead, I require at least 1 Metroid game and/or 1 Vanillaware game to balance things out

I almost said "Dead Space" but I have zero faith in EA to do absolutely anything

Dead Space is unironically dead as far as I know which is a crying shame, I really enjoyed 1 and 2, especially the evolution of Isaac Clarke from silent protagonist to eternally pissed-off corpse stomper. Boy, EA sure does love making GBS threads up and squandering various franchises.

From many pages back, but gently caress you Square-Enix :mad:

Hitman 2016 was great.

e: welp
Since people are asking about sales:

Hitman Absolution: Owners: 3,020,229 ± 50,168
Hitman: Owners: 631,227 ± 23,003

Hitman Absolution also shipped 3.6 million in a few months whereas presumably Hitman is no where near that.

They've now canceled DE, canceled hitman, and told the TR team to focus on licensed properties
what other eidos stuff can they lose faith in?

Didn't Bioware's B-team make Andromeda? Regardless, it's pretty inexcusable that they spent 4 years or more working on Andromeda and it still came out with easily noticeable and significant bugs.

It really amazes me how because you can do Day One patches developers seem more than happy to crap out their broken games early and 'reward' the preorder people with those problems.

It was mentioned a few pages back but it's absolutely much better these days to wait for most games to drop in price and get their bugs patched instead of paying full retail. There are so few games these days I will buy day one. There's just no point.

Fair enough...I had just heard that Bioware's 'A-team' was working on a new IP so they gave Andromeda to another studio.

Sam Faust posted:

Edmonton is their main studio and is the closest thing to OG Bioware there is. They did most of the other main Bioware games (ie the ME and DA series and stuff before that) and are probably working on the next DA game along with the unannounced Destiny-like game.

Montreal was a support studio that helped out on projects. Andromeda was their first actual game and it is there last for the forseeable future.

E: The idea that nobody from old Bioware is around is only true to an extent, given vets like Laidlaw and Weekes are in charge of Dragon Age.

That game had really weird animation at times where it'd just suddenly switch from that to just flat faces on models and it made it look really really off imo.


Also I remember Rikku winning some viewer's choice award for hottest video game girl from G4 when they decided it'd be a good idea to have an award ceremony about who the hottest video game girls are.

That part early on in ffx-2 where Rikku's brother, Brother, tries to hit on his cousin Yuna and gets knocked down for it and you can then he grunts if you walk or jump on top of him
