APB, the dead game you didn't realise still existed but was also dying a slow slow death has once again been dragged out of the doldrums of condemnation by another brave, brave publisher. They're hoping to finish the fabled engine upgrade to Unreal 4 and give it a bunch new content and so on.

Yes the game sucked but it was also real fun and had some great moments and the customization is still some of the best in gaming. Let's see if APB's third chance pays off.

Last time I played this you “rented” equipment for 24 hours so naw APB can RIP

this is the poo poo I was talking about before though, its like saying "ah well they have to make movies incredibly lovely now, think of the international gross". its not your place as a consumer to care about the machinations of capitalists, only if the end result of the production is good or bad. you can definitely sympathize with the lovely situation that the workers are put in, but ultimately they're making bad, exploitative products and if that's what the game industry aspires to then maybe there shouldn't be a game industry

Yeah they're just testing/balancing the third character and adding the last batch of cards, it should be out of EA in a month or so, at which point the price will go up so BUY NOW!

I’m still waiting for someone to make an expansive and complex open world game with essentially gta3-tier graphics.

this does more or less happen it's just that it's, like, a bunch of russian modders doing total conversions of STALKER and releasing it for free

I said come in!

Everyone is better off just playing Grand Theft Auto Online. APB is a poor imitation of that game even though it came out first. I remember when APB first launched and goons flipped their poo poo over how terrible it was though lol.

i think there's still a kind of gap in game design where to make certain kinds of games that aren't popular enough to get much AAA representation but are too complicated and expensive to make to have much indie representation either

and another overlapping circle in that venn diagram, of genres that only a handful of studios / developers in all of gaming history actually know how to make while most everyone else just embarasses themselves, like fighting games or RTSes or shmups

The Dragon of Dojima is canonically a virgin (probably)

quote:

I have one digression about character backgrounds. This is just my own interpretation and as such isn’t official or anything like that, and I hope people read it as a kind of lip service, but I think that Kiryu is probably a virgin. Probably.

WHICH game do you think has the best soundtrack of the ages? As for me, I think it is LISA, the painful rpg. A 2nd place is tied between hotline miami and DOOM.

Jet Set Radio, Toejam & Earl, Earthbound are all very stylistic and unique and memorable for me.

Chrono Cross' soundtrack is pretty exceptional.
