mutata posted:Wow, so that era of Valve is well and truly dead. It ended years ago, but this was the last confirmation that it's permanent that I needed. Gaben can sleep well at night knowing that Valve will never truly release neither a bad game, nor one the majority of gamers would call "A bit disappointing". The figured out a mathematical formula at Valve that revealed the longer a game development company is around, the larger the possibility is that the company would release a title that falls under one of those two above descriptors.

Palpek posted:Is there any game that comes close to featuring the studio's boss as an in-game character 3D modelled in detail complete with his glasses, having super stats and being at one point refered to as "God"? I guess you could say Iwata in Breath of the Wild, but I don't think the devs will ever fully admit it.

Death is the only Horseman to ever be mentioned by name in Revelations. The others are left open to interpretation. Take a look, it's in a book.

Quest For Glory II posted:trying to put together a list of games that will be at E3 for the thread on monday and it's like, wow there's not a whole lot. Don't forget Geoff has already announced he's doing something...well something like he always does for E3 this year with interviews and stuff. Probably will lift his spirits after that venture he tried to get off the ground, even with the entire support of YouTube Gaming failed to catch on last fall.

Prey 2006 was one of those games that was in production for so long there were concepts in the game the developers knew were there, but don't remember exactly who added them in or what purpose they served in the final game.

The Colonel posted:i loving loved halo 2, i thought it was the one most people considered the best of the trilogy I mean people certainly thought that about the multiplayer. I don't know how it feels to go through the single-player these days. Especially since there's an entire other Halo game to satisfy your urban combat needs if that was your favorite part of 2.

Palpek posted:That's 100% sure. I don't know what company owns the Hitman IP. If it's Square then if the game sold under Square's expectations to the point of them letting IO go then I doubt they plan on developing Hitman any time soon even with a different studio. If IO owns the IP then I doubt that a new investor they find would want to continue Sqaure's publishing ideas so they'd probably rather develop a new Hitman if not focus on an entirely different IP. I remember last year there were rumors that Microsoft was open to selling Lionhead instead of shutting them down but the problem was that any potential buyers also wanted the Fable IP as part of the purchase which Microsoft refused to include, so those talks never went anywhere. IP is valuable even if the company never does anything substantial with it.

Sefal posted:I stand corrected. I do think we have reached a point where your Kickstarter is likely to be more successful if it doesn't have a "Joe Video Game: Inventor of the VIdeo Game" factor involved. Like eventually gamers learned that maybe these former high ranking guys who either left or were "Let go" from their companies, that it happened for a good reason. Whether it was ego, going over budget while missing deadlines, or some other various factors.

wizard on a water slide posted:ya, steam is a useful and functional platform and PC gaming needs stuff like that and can't just be the wild west if it wants to compete with consoles and be a large enough market for console devs to release on it, but a lot of gamers have this weird thing with corporations they think are their cool pals because they produce something fun and good and aren't like, the worst employers or exploiters in the economy Yeah but I already know the companies who make games I like, like them, do plenty of lovely things. I don't think that's ever really caught up with Valve until recently. Like within the last year or two.

Guy Mann posted:It's a music rights issue, Why they don't just take out the licensed track instead of memory hole-ing the entire game? Then you end up with the current situation Symphony of the Night is in. You can buy SOTN sure, but you can't buy a digital copy that has the OG ending theme anymore. That poo poo is gone.

The dog is actually Hitler, THE Hitler but you don't find out until an after credits stinger and only if you acquire every collectable in the game. This plot point is expanded on in the DLC.

Looper posted:I'm still "marveling" at how you can make an MvC game without any x men I mean if everything some of these guys have been saying is true Black Panther isn't even in the initial retail release so we don't even have a "Who needs Wolverine when you have BP?" scenario. He'll probably be DLC released around the time his movie launches. Probably as free "Thank you for supporting the game" DLC at this rate.
