I like how Yahtzee deliberately makes you unfamiliar with the side characters by not emphasizing their overlaps in certain decisions. Hell, Clementine doesn't even get a mention.
Never been interested in Xbox and hated it since my parents got me an Xbox instead of ps2 when all I wanted was to play jrpgs. However, we need Xbox to be successful, Sony can't have no competition it's not healthy (Nintendo doesn't count heh)
You guys have no idea what you want and the gane will fail not cause its bad but because you just want a copy of gears 3 and that's not good enough yall are sounding like stuoid halo fans where everything has to be halo 3 Your to blinded by nostalgia for anything to be successful from xbkx you want to much and living in the past ita the 1363626273 makenor break for xbox yall need to just move on if Xbox is not giving you what you want Games will be on ps5 get over it or get gone
Sadly it's just an emulation with changed few aspects, they didn't even bother to actually read the source code and make the game. The emulation is pathetic about 30% of the time, the FPS drops to 3 or worse for no reasons at all... at least in epsxe I could play it without any issues except for fps drops were the battle started it did lag horribly, Here you pay so much for so called remaster and get slapped in the face by SE. Don't get me wrong I love CC it's in the top 3 most loved PSX games, together with FM3 and PE2... but you have to objective otherwise you lose sight and you go back to being an NPC that just consumes crap from disgusting companies 😐. SE is really close of being put on the shitlist that EA, Ubisoft, Blizzard, Activision (...) are They had a great chance to expand the game and do stuff they couldn't do back then, so many extra combination and more mechanics just went bye bye because of lazy dipshits that just care to push out something to keep IPs / etc
I usually dont get hype anymore in this era of gaming but i have an itch with this one. What if this will be the most sickest Gears we get? Top-notch visuals, gameplay, gritty tone. Crossing my fingers
I installed this game today, having not played it since it's initial release on PS3, for my son 6 year old son to try out. Sure enough, we ran into another player. Wild.
I absolutely 100% guarantee that when a leaker says that "gears 6 will be the game that makes Xbox worth it again", they are talking about graphics. graphics graphics graphics. Any game expected to carry their console needs to be showing off all the pretty graphics, and I can't imagine a game designed to show off all the pretty graphics also being fun.
I've been using these compilations as sleeping aids for more than a year. I honestly cannot remember how I could sleep without them. Yahtzee has done for me what my mother used to do two decades ago : make the sounds of my brain go quiet.
Why in the fuck can't people just enjoy games for what they are? you don't have to compare everything to call of duty. if you want to play call of duty, go play call of duty. its completely fine to want to branch out and play different games. but let those games be just that, different. so what if it doesn't have a camo grind or doesn't have a fleshed out meta progression. and everything isn't tailored to call of duty players. the only thing that was a valid point in this was the sound design argument. that does need to be better.
Some months ago, a man walked in where i worked with a Gears Cog shirt on and we immediately started talking about GoW and what should have been. After reminiscing on that convo i think Gears 4 should have been a hybrid sequel/prequel where you place a non-linear campaign alternating between Pendulum wars and 2 generations after marcus (Have Marcus and Anya elderly, alive, and happily married) and the story could be somehow related to that. The best part of Gears 4 was the short flashback sequence lol. What a shame GoW at its peak was literally a phenomenon and its game modes where peak.
Long time Gears of War fan here, and i am sad to say, that the thing that could get GEARS back on track... is unnataiable, cause it's good ol' Cliff-B... before he got too high on his own supply. Now, i liked 4, and do not get the hate for 5... BUT we gotta face the fact that the series peaked in 2. because back then this guy KNEW what the gamer wanted of the experience. Now i do sound a bit dismissive of the whole team, and i dont really think it's just his work that made gears good. But you can pin-point the moment things spiraled downwards and that was when he left epic at the time... (oh god.... WHAT YEAR IS IT???) Like when halo left bungie for 343... the change of hands marks a drastic change in IP handling.
Based off of what we have been getting, its gonna be terrible. Story will be soemthing to make fun of after a few drink and multiplayer will worth trying after a few months after release when they fix all the bugs.
Realistically, how can the Coalition deliver a satisfying cap to this trilogy when Gears 4/5 were met with such lukewarm receptions? I don't think anybody really cares about how this trilogy wraps up. The original three games may not have been narrative masterpieces, but the characters were fun and likeable, and there was something compelling about the horrific struggle against the locust that kept players coming back for more. I also think each sequel pushed the envelope technically - they were essentially consumer showcases for the latest and greatest Unreal Engine features. Gears 4/5 are no different in this respect, but imo gaming tech was so much more exciting back then, and the visual leaps we were seeing were more obvious and impressive. I guess this is a subjective opinion but a lot of current gen titles really aren't that much more impressive than the previous gen to me. Whilst I can't personally comment on the quality of Gears 4/5 (I've tried to play through 4 twice, but I get bored within a few hours and have never finished it), I don't think they've had the same draw the original trilogy did, so I don't think a third entry can ever truly hit the mark the franchise needs it to. I will say this is a good opportunity for Microsoft to reveal a Halo Anniversary style re-release of the legacy titles (but without the launch issues). I would love to see remastered Gears 1, 2, 3, Judgement (especially if they appear on PC). I think the current situation with Xbox raises a broader question - do we really need a MS gaming console? From a hardware perspective they are essentially delivering the same experience as Sony. Meanwhile Nintendo continue to do their own thing (with great success). Microsoft/Sony's machines are so similar from a hardware perspective as to be essentially interchangeable. I will say I prefer the Xbox controller and the design of their hardware over the PS5
Halo just showed their goal, the many studio dismanting proved anyone can be removed. They'll fumble this, or a good attempt but the expectation will follow the previous title's strengths, value and returns, while not realizing the new price tag does not match the gameplay, fun and details of yester Generation.
Gnasher. The Gnasher is the main reason for players leaving the multi-player modes. 80% of game play is Gnasher and anytime a mechanic is put in place to counter, it gets taken away. Retro Lancer, stim grenade, slowdown when being shot, Enforcer smg, powerful melee, etc are all counters to the Gnasher. Eventually those were all taken from main play and once again the Gnasher is the primary focus.
How's it possible every major game known to mankind is going to have the number 6 in upcoming titles... Black Ops 6, GTA VI, Forza Horizon 6, Gears 6... We're living at an interesting time!
Gears 6 needs to be nothing but blockbuster. It’s the one franchise that can truly blow it out the park, especially with The Coalition’s expertise with UE5
The longest gap in games we had till now was Judgment to Gears 4 which was 3 and a half years. March 2013 to September 2016. Now is been 5 years and Gears 6 is at least a year away. Maybe longer.
i think it is a dangerous game resting out on the wing that is hope in today's age in a dream that an ip will be shown the love it deserves. These companies will not stop dropping the ball; And as difficult as it might be I think at a point you've gotta cut the cord. Otherwise they will always have a foothold.
The problem is that people don't actually want a new Gears game. They want to be magically transported to when they first played the old games, and that will never happen. Even when the developers stupidly listen to the screaming masses, they still complain about everything and claim its the worst game ever made. Just look at what happened when Ubisoft listened to the crybabies and made assassins creed mirage. 😂
