They've got a new trailer for the GI Joe game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h1j4lhpCmgo&feature=youtu.be&fbclid=IwAR0JZkexXzbCR3Cd5xxdcUkLL7uURR3blBARZo55WAm7Xg29Zzw-DISt1Jc I'm guessing they, uh, saved some money on the voice acting.

Old Kentucky Shark posted:God, I wish Agents of Mayhem had been a good game, and not a boondoggle that seems to have functionally killed one of the more fun development houses in the business. Right? I was onboard with 'GI Joe but leaning into the lunacy' but then they gave us one of the most boring open worlds possible and enough reused maps to make Dragon Age II look like the Witcher 3. I wonder if that was the goal or something behind the scenes kneecapped them.

Medullah posted:It's vaguely related to it (one of the endings of Gat out of Hell has him becoming a cop in a world rebuilt by God, and that's this universe) but most references are just hints and such. I think it was meant to launch a new franchise and boy howdy did they fail. RIP Deep Silver. It does feel like 'Stilwater AU.' Pierce is shown to be effective when he's not surrounded by people who go 'lol whatever' when he tries to come up with a plan and was running the original three gangs from the first game* when the Cobra analogue whose name I forget tried to take over. *Vice Kings, Los Carnales and the West Side Rollerz, because some things you can't forget no matter how hard you try.

Maximum Carnage was just a side-scrolling brawler but a lot of fun that I may give too much credit because I finished it entirely with a buddy hopped up on, I dunno, Cherry Coke or something. Somebody kind of notable did the soundtrack too, which I liked?

Lobok posted:Might have been something they tolerated for PS4 but for the PS5, including the remaster and Miles' game and inevitably the Spider-Man 2 sequel, they made the change. We haven't seen Peter in Miles' game yet, only heard his voice, and this news update is likely a way to get people prepared for him to look different in that. Yeah. The 'it needs to be a next-gen performance' is telling.

Lobok posted:The game makes explicit that a good chunk of the cops were corrupt. ACAB and all but Watanabe is one member of the crew of "good ones" that Spider-Man has worked with throughout his comics history. And even those good ones sometimes go rogue or betray him or both. Yeah. I think Watanabe herself turns into a villain down the line in the comics.

Old Kentucky Shark posted:It's okay. I don't think I finished it. It also feels like the best iteration of TellTale doing it's best to cover up 'the thing happens anyway regardless of your choice' and some of your choices actually stick. (Tales is my favorite TT game.) Batman felt particularly bad about the opposite. Like you have the option to let Catwoman crash at Wayne Manor and... nothing comes of it save she leaves anyway and you don't even get a scene of her there?

The Question IRL posted:The Catwoman one was all about building a relationship with her. Except for it to really work you almost had to follow a walk through to pull it off. You needed to make a very specific set of choices to get her to want to be with you. I believe if you save Selina is when you get the bit where she might be interested in a relationship because selflessness is attractive. I remember saving her in my playthrough because I figured Harvey was going to be Two-Face regardless which as you say is right... but not. Haven't played the second season so I'm not sure if it's ever built on or how it tries to keep John Doe and the Joker separate.

SonicRulez posted:You do actually get a scene of Selina at the mansion. She just leaves immediately afterwards. Then you have one last meeting with her. I was bummed that after all that work Harvey is unscarred and he still turned heel. And they call him Two Face! That doesn't even make sense in this continuity! I should've saved Selina a bullet. What bothered me a little I guess is they made a big deal of Selina staying there and... it's to leave because Gotham is getting too hot. I was not expecting a house party, a pajama jammy jam, but like something would have been nice. Since the option was there that she never came I guess it made more sense to not do anything. Telltale was basically hemorrhaging money right after the first Walking Dead game, right? That probably explains why they didn't work too hard on something not everybody was going to see for the most part.

Blockhouse posted:This is what really gets me about all the dismissive skepticism: Firaxis very clearly knows how to make game systems. They're not randos coming up with a brand new deckbuilding-based strategy RPG. These guys more or less took the bare essential ideas of UFO Defense and build an entirely new game around them. I'd like to think they have the benefit of the doubt. On a serious note, this is what I think. While it only takes a game to squander it, Firaxis feels like they've earned a smidge of goodwill.

Aphrodite posted:Sort of. The combat in Guardians is significantly worse than even Avengers' button mashing. I didn't feel that at all. Peter's extremely mobile and fun to move around, calling in the team attacks are cool, you can adjust the settings to a large degree if you think it's too fast or slow. Seriously, all games should at least have the level of control Guardians gives you to alter your experience.

Champions had one thing that honestly carried it a long way for me, which was you could have basically any superhero name you wanted because your name on the server was <super name>@<account name>.info or whatever. I wish more MMOs did that.

Especially when the characters all have wildly distinct gimmicks. We're getting that Midnight Sons thing which has a lot of different characters, so it can be done but the problem is they want to chase whatever's the current hotness.
