You talk about Metal Gear, Thief and Splinter Cell. But the series I miss the most and seems to be completely forgotten is the Tenchu series. It had a unique atmosphere and feeling within the stealth genre.
Yeah, agreed. Lots of features that made Tenchu a very enjoyable and memorable experience. I liked picking what I though would be the most relevant tools and gear when starting a mission, the lively inhabited environments, the needed observation and planning skills when wiping out all the enemies undetected, eavesdropping and encountering funny and strange npc dialogue in the otherwise serious and dangerous atmosphere, also the amount of patience and skill to become succesfull and achieve top rank for missions. Just nothing else like it. FromSoftware knew what they were doing. Sekiro is cool and all but it's not Tenchu.
I was thinking the exact same thing! I'd never even heard of Thief until maybe two years ago, but Tenchu is probably the very first series I think of when I think stealth.
Sleeping Dogs man. It’s probably the most underrated shit in the gaming industry. Don’t know how many times I’ve played it over these years but watching the streets of Hong Kong in that game is so chaotic and calming at the same time.
Seeing Splinter Cell: Conviction on the thumbnail made my heart lit up. That old man climbed up the pipes like he had a super serum. And the badass exit from the 3rd Echelon building, the best.
Well, about dishonored it's not true. You see, dishonored is a good game but after the 2nd part, I guess, Arcane could not develop the series and make the game more interesting. But instead they made a deathloop. That is completely different and similar to dishonored. I considered that the reason that made deathloop instead of dishonored it is because it is something new and more interesting for developers and players.
@@volli631also didn't help that Designer 2 didn't do as good as the first game and for some reason they f*** the controls up for Dishonored to every time I try to play Dishonored 2 no matter what Sensitivity I put the controller on I can't play the f****** game and this is someone who's beating dishonoured 2012 like five times it's like one of my favorite games of all time I love that game I beat it without killing people I beat it by killing everybody I beat it on the good side the bad side and I beat it a fifth time because it's just was so f****** fun and addicting to play I probably play designer for a month straight just on my Xbox cloud on my phone I'd be outside smoking weed and I'd be playing Dishonored for hours until my phone died because Xbox cloud is f****** awesome
@@jonsimpson6569Things being locked behind online connection is so bad..the only thing that should be locked is multiplayer servers if they shut them down
Capcom should be all over a remake of Dino Crisis after the success of the RE games. Those first two DC titles were amazing, if brought back with modern survival horror gameplay they would be hits again for sure. Still don't know why they chose to make Exoprimal which was basically a tease for DC fans rather than giving us what we actually wanted. Hopefully one day it will happen.
Top Games I want to come back: 1.007 Golden Eye 2.Bully - WE NEEDED A BULLY 2!!! 3.The old Call of Duty 3!!! That game was the BOMB!!! 4.Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Vegas series (DON'T CARE ABOUT SIEGE) 5.Prototype
I would love to see updated versions / remasters of • LoK - Soul Reaver (Including cut content) • Command & Conquer (3) • Tenchu • Lair • Rygar Edit: C&C 3 Specifically, because of looks, factions and game mechanics, all updated to current gen quality. Soul Reaver regrettably has a huge amount of cut content, that would've pushed the game even further into unrivalled brilliance.
Command & Conquer did get an HD Remaster. But it was just that, audio and visual updates. Nothing done to change anything. Even the AI that is stopped via sandbags & expo via sandbags as well.
dude I LOVED the burnout series! Especially 3 when they added in the wreck mode where all you did was try to cause as much monetary damage with one wreck as possible. I used to play it for hours with my cousins what great memories
Same! I remember having so many nights with my friends in middle school playing Burnout 3 all night trying to cause as much damage as possible, such a fun game.
for those of you who wants to see cars wrecked into oblivion with good new graphics, try Wreckfest. Its made by team that made Flatout, which was my favourite racing game back in those days.
Both. But i would change "charm" with "innovation". Now its difficult to make something "new", not only because it is expensive, but also because as with any art form, most was already been invented.
I'm glad to hear Legacy of Kain is on this list, man that series was so epic in my younger days. Blood omen was fun original and creative with 2 different possible endings. Then the canon ending was actually the evil ending which set up such a great world state and story for Soul Reaver. Shifting between the material and spirit worlds to solve puzzles, the unique combat system, and the grand story telling was so undeniably fresh and different. The final entry Defiance, (we dont talk about Nosgoth), left off on a big cliffhanger after some pretty big reveals. A new entry in the series would be incredible! Trouble is this series might just hold the record for the most canceled sequels of all time. Makes me sad
Splinter Cell:Chaos Theory has one of the best soundtracks ever created, with Amon Tobin squarely in his bag, and I miss getting cool music with my cool game instead of generic orchestration
With what Naughty Dog did with Last of Us (releasing both pieces on the same hardware, with the same models, running on the same engine), a truly wonderful idea would be a remaster of the ENTIRE Legacy of Kain series. All 5 games, with storyboarded transitional scenes worked in. An experience one could play back to back, or just an anthology collection. They're doing it with Tomb Raider, and that's fine. But Legacy of Kain was afar more interesting series than Indiana Boobjob.
@@deadeyedmillennialmediaI mean, sure, but why did you comment that on THIS comment? Can't make your own? At least I'm talking about the game he mentioned 😂
@@nolankuffner3573 I couldn't agree more. I'd only we could be so lucky. That would be one of the only times I am willing to preorder anything. And the idea of an anthology or multi title release for the next gen? Yep, I'm sold already lol. Love your ideas!
the only form in which they would bring Logan and Syphon Filter back is if he gets emasculated and then replaced by a black woman. or at very least be the dog character for his asian woman side kick. its a nasty time for old heroes to come back.
^ Jesus my dude. Syphon Filter was the first video game I ever owned. Many nights I stayed up playing that game or got up early morning to play a few hours before school.
@@1996Prelude same here. Whenever I think of PlayStation 1 that's the one game that brings back fond memories. I owe that game a lot because without it I wouldn't be the gamer that I am today. I thought it was cool that Days Gone had the Syphon Filter Easter egg and was so hoping that it would lead to a new game in the series.
There is an old horror game called "The Suffering" would of Loved to have seen an updated version of that. It had a really good setting, creature design and story.
Yesss the suffering was such an amazing game! Torque his backstory was crazy and the fact it was in the Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia man. We're Capone was. Dr killjoy I love that game
They need to either bring back or remake the first 2 inFamous games. Both with the UGC feature, which was frikkin awesome. I have spent hundreds, if not thousands of hours making my own story missions in UGC creator.
Ive been playing Evil West this week and ive really been enjoying it. Miss simple, fun games like this. Just a bit of chaos and a linear story, its really fun and looks great.
Splinter Cell, MGS, Hitman, and many more. These are all my favorite games, I really like stealth genre games, but unfortunately nowadays developers rarely make stealth games. In fact, there are almost no stealth games, maybe there are but those are indie games.
I agree with almost all of these. One I am shocked you left out was Twisted Metal. Especially with that show being made. I would love a new Twisted Metal with online deathmatch.
Sleeping Dogs need a shout out as well. I still don't know why there's no open world games as huge as SD's Hong Kong with beautiful hand to hand combat, environmental takedowns, and packed world content. Yakuza and Shenmue exists but imagine driving in the streets of Hong Kong but with current gen graphics.
The melee fighting is amazing and varied; the environmental takedowns are just the icing on top. Story and characters are excellent. The game still looks and sounds great too, with city streets filled with NPCs.
THANK YOU. bro I commented the same thing. can we just talk about how much we love sleeping dogs because no one ever does.its literally one of my favorite games ever and you are so right we need Hong Kong in current graphics
There hasn't been a spy game that came anything close to No One Lives Forever. The humor, the gadgets, and the setting all make it a truly unique experience. Would love a new game in the same vein.
Ninja Gaiden for the X-box felt like a predecessor to modern souls like games such as Sekiro, Jedi Fallen Order/Survivor, Lies of P, etc. It offered a relatively slow pace of combat which rewards timing and strategy and punishes brainless button mashing. The setting also offers a semi open ended Metroid-vania map which progressively opens up and loops around back on itself. It also introduced me to the concept of punishing boss battles, which could take multiple attempts. It’s so nice to see you that 20 years later, the public still has a hunger for these type of demanding yet rewarding, action games.
Me too, it was my first approach to a console shooter. The only good thing i have now is to think of Days Gone as a sequel to Syphon Filter since it has all the conections to the original games
Yeah man! Absolute classic. Frustratingly challenging. People seem to have either forgotten that challenge=reward reward = cult classics and nostalgia. Devs don’t care about their games anymore. They care about the money, who can blame them. People just keep giving it to them. We need to start holding them accountable and we need to start voting with our wallets.
@@BornInSouth when I found that document and read Gabe and Lian's name on it I lost my shit lol. Just casually came across the file too. Had no idea that was something waiting to be found. I fully believe it's a sequel too because the NERO suits look exactly like the ones we saw in Syphon Filter.
I want to see a sequel to the original _PREY_ from 2006. It ended on a cliffhanger when Tommy was at his grandfather's restaurant, and aliens came looking for his help in dealing with more creatures like the ones who kidnapped his grandpa and girlfriend, with them both having died.
Hate to say it but it seems impossible at the time, great games take too much money and time, unless you’re capcom or naughty dog or rockstar and a few others it ain’t happening.
I would love to see games like Red Alert and Heroes of Might n Magic make a big resurgence. The games that claim to replicate these classics are abysmal failures.
@@chalky1250 I agree but I'd say after Heroes V. It had 2 decent expansions, I liked the graphics better and I enjoyed the campaign more. Heroes 6 n 7 sucked because they tried too hard to be Heroes 3 n 4.
@@americanbranflakes Tempest Rising is looking pretty good, but I doubt it will be anywhere close to a C&C Red Alert... And the C&C generals 2 EA promised and shown using Frostbite was just at a whole new damn level of awesomeness until they shoved it somewhere and went for some mobile game 🤬 Same with Need For Speed some ppl always wait that the next might be like a NFS Underground 3 but it's always the same modern NFS with huge visuals but bad unresponsive strange gameplay that keeps turning even after stop turning for a while and it's never like the feeling of the amazing good old NFS Underground 1 and 2...
When I think about stealth games the first one that comes to my mind is Tenchu: Stealth Assassins. Man that game was fun. Poison rice... lol nuff said ;)
Agreed completely! Even the multiplayer was such a unique experience. Then it was butchered by mechanics. I remember seeing the gameplay previews of the latest ones and I was pissed at peoples positive reactions to it. Like are we that dim witted that we need to select enemies and let an automatic function play out and take them out with a click of a button. Or having the ability to see through walls. Just like other dying genres I’ve just learnt to watch the downfall play out in front of me. Games become less challenging all the while delivering the same dopamine. Miss the days where I’d be stuck on something pulling my hair out, going to bed waking up and completing the challenge first try. Dark souls, Elden ring just don’t do it for me in terms of lore. What we get now are 18+ mature games designed for 8 year olds and their attention spans. Even city building games and strategy games. There’s a reason people still talk about Banished. But what do we get. Cities skylines 2 where it’s impossible to actually fail. What’s the point. It’s like developers ignore the games that stick in peoples minds and become classics. Substituting them for arcade style yearly releases dribble that cater to younger generations that prefer not to be challenged. I hate the way the industry is going. Anyone that has been around and played video games for 30 years should be able to notice that what we get now is shameful at best. I’ll stick to indie games and early access and receive community driven updates for 10 years. Despite people wishing for full release and then quick community falloff.
@@MrSladej What do you think the reason is that every form of entertainment has become so watered down and dumbed down the last few decades? Even for kids it's lacking in engaging, meaningful and memorable interaction. Why are certain views and narratives also forced onto every type of media we get exposed to. The whole thing with sweet baby inc. Is a clear example. That and corporate greed is what's ruining the experiences and freedom. Smaller studio's productions and indie games creations are quite often a breath of fresh air amongst the smog.
Not sure what problem with the UI you're talking about; I played ChaosTheory like a month ago or so and it ran perfectly with no problem in the UI or the gameplay itself.@@MYkeyMadeIt
Conviction is my favorite Splinter Cell and one of my favorite games of all time. The gameplay was very fun and had a ton of replayability. It had 12 maps with 4 stages each that could all be played multiplayer with any modifier you choose. Wether you Infiltrate without being seen, eliminate all enemies, or guard an EMP on any difficulty level. It had a good number of unlockable outfits that you could customize and had to choose between having more gadgets, armor, ammo or some balance of the three, but not all at once. All kinds of in game achievements awarding points that could be spent on customization for your outfits and weapons. Chaos Theory is the most pure stealth and the chosen of purists, but is my second favorite in the series.
I was happily surprised to see Soul Reaver on this list, thanks. Was a truly epic, top quality game. Probably the best gaming experience of my life. I hope we get to see a remaster or properly done new title to the LoK franchise. The bar is set pretty damn high when compared to the original.
To add on the list: The should be another Midnight Club (it last entry was way back in '08-'09). Chances are extremely slim since Take2 wants rockstar to focus on GTA. Another one should be inFAMOUS (should either get the first 2 remastered or have a remake and it last entry was 2014) because just like [PROTOTYPE] you don't have to be the good guy. Sucker Punch is still around but is focused on Ghost, They could remaster the first 2 and make a bundle that includes every inFAMOUS title with their add-ons and eventually possibly make a What if? inFAMOUS game similar to how FOB is a what if. Nowadays we just have Capcom & Naughty Dog taking advantage of people's nostalgia and doing remakes and remasters.
Thank you for mentioning Prototype. My childhood right there. I sooo wish the Starcraft franchise received the same amount of love as Warcraft did. Very unfortunate it didn't.
Fun fact Prototype was kind of its name while in development because it was a sequel to the ultimate Spider-Man game but you played as venom. It turned into prototype.
StarCraft is my favorite game of all time. But we won't see another one. There's no money in it, there's no real way to implement microtransactions in a sizable way. Maybe banners and profile pictures like they tried with 2 but anything that is gameplay related, like skins for your units or buildings just can't be used due to the nature of it being an RTS. Truly sad.
I just want them to remake SSX Tricky. One of the greatest games I have ever played. I wasn't a huge fan of the changes that came in SSX3. I really enjoyed the racing, but they made subtle changes to the controls that made it worse. Being forced to do other activities in order to unlock more races/courses/parts of the mountain really pissed me off, so much so that I never even bothered to unlock everything. I loved Tricky because the extra activities, like the rail grinding point scoring levels were an aside. You weren't forced into them other than to gain skill points for your character. Content was not locked behind it. Bring back SSX Tricky
I wouldn't mind a remake or remaster of the original SSX either. But SSX Tricky was a masterpiece... it needs to make a comeback like yesterday. But it's EA, and giving fans what they actually want just isn't their fuckin style. For example, why isn't there another Fight Night game, but they keep diarreahing out those un fun ass UFC games.
Battle Tanks... SUPER fun game with a bunch of different tanks that were fast and weak or heavy armored and slow with a big gun. Level destruction, and pick up that changed the fire rate or what kind of gun you had. I remember sinking a lot of time into those games on the 64.
BURNOUT REVENGE, hands down had THE best music tracks in a racing game at that time. Billy Talent's "Red Flag" and Fall Out Boy's "Dance, Dance" still plays in my head to this day...
the industry is at the point where i’m completely alright with seeing beloved franchises like these disappear, because it lets me know they’ll never be ruined by greed.
Yeah, worst of all they completely wiped out good old concept, i know tons of good game who have unique concept that could be succesfull if they improving that good old and unique gameplay
Killzone, burnout, mid night club are 3 of the most entertaining games you could catch me on. Wish they could revive those franchises but i would be worried with the horrible implemented tatics that companies are putting in games these days. Im really praying that dragon ball tenkaishi 4 doesnt get runied 🙏
F.E.A.R. 3 gets a lot of hate, but it was honestly one of the best couch co-op games my buddy and I ever played. If I had an addition to this list it would be the Army of Two franchise. The 40th Day was hands down the greatest couch co-op FPS game ever made. We just need more co-op games that aren't goofy or niche. Revive Army of Two and add online co-op and you'd have a massive hit.
The fact that car manufacturers don't want to see their own cars get torn up in video games like Burnout and NFS but in movies with car racing, stunts, car chases, and crashing is baffling🤦♂️
Don't forget Megaman Battle Network. Why do people forget about Megaman Battle Network series, both on Visual Boy Advance and 3DS? This was a really really good game series, people. :) Show it some love. I know there was a remake somewhat recently, but it would be nice to have a continueation.
Mercenaries. Mercenaries needs a remaster!!! I got it running on my Series X, and its so fun to play! Seriously reminds me of how much fun the world is back when i played it when i was a kid in the early 2000s.
I'm still disappointed that Sleeping Dogs ended with just one game, and there have been no other high quality open world games set in asia after that, it's a huge void.
I hope there are more Conviction fans out there than I think there are. That game was one of my first introductions to stealth games and it was so well made and had such a pivotal story for me. I'll never NEVER forget the part where things unfold and DJ Shadow's "Building Steam with a Grain of Salt" blasts on and Sam Fisher goes absolute ham. Iconic game for me
Absolutely loved it! As well the old SC games that were more slow paced. Conviction was just all action couldn’t get enough! Mission in the White House was it? Epic. Wish I could stream it on the ps5. Happily play it again
Listen, Legacy of Kain was just amazing. Soul Reaver was so brilliant. I think about those games often. Waaay ahead of it's time. I have no doubt they would succeed if the did a remake of the whole franchise so long as they stuck to the formula. I'm always surprised no one ever made a cinematic version. So rich in story.
I was about to comment that you didn't include Mega Man X and Legends but wow, you actually mentioned them at the end of the video. 👍 Other games to include in a part 2 video: - Tenchu - Breath of Fire - Castlevania - Marvel vs Capcom - Earthbound / Mother - Earthworm Jim
what really needs to come back is Fat princess, Resistance, and MAG from the Ps3 days those 3 games were insaneeee. and i love red faction so much man, why can’t we just go back to these type of games fr
I really loved the Resistance games on PlayStation. The weapons were a ton of fun and the Chimera were great enemies. There always felt like a place for that series to continue alongside both Halo and Gears of War, but sadly no new Resistance games in almost 15 years.
Omg, I had no idea about the car thing. That's wild. Burnout was amazing, the Crash game, the Takedowns, the Traffic smashing boosts from Burnout Revenge...ugh, so good. That game was so great, so fun, and satisfying. Car companies not wanting their cars to be shown getting destroyed is absolutely ridiculous. But even still, I'd take made up cars if it means we get a current-gen Burnout, even a Revenge Remake.
Me and some friends played that so much, one track we'd got to a fine art in getting lap times to the point we were shaving 1/100ths of seconds off to get the fastest lap
I remember playing the original splinter cell when it just came out. I just bought myself a new computer at the time with the latest graphics card and I was happy to play and replay it over and over again. My fave one was splinter cell: chaos theory! Just an amazing game! You can still purchase it to this day on steam.
That's Crazy you put Thief as people who mention stealth games, ahead of: Tenchu, Hitman, Assassin's Creed (earlier ones more so). Maybe it's a personal favourite, but it's more unknown than those others.
5:17 A new TimeSplitters game was in the works until this happened right before Christmas. Our only hope is the fanmade Rewind which seems to have been in development for 10 years and doesn’t look like it’s ever going to get released
Pretty good list! Legacy of kain had a great lore, sadly some of the amazing cast wouldn't be present. Alongside metal gear these games had some incredible voice acting for the time. As for sandbox games, we also miss Jak and Daxter, a LOT.
Metal Gear, Splinter Cell, Prince of Persia, Def Jam, True Crime, Sleeping Dogs, Midnight Club, Rainbow Six Vegas, Uncharted, Halo reach, Resistance, even Killzone. For me, the golden age of gaming was between 2005-2012. Would love to see these series return 😢
Deus Ex is another awesome series. Prototype as well. Damn Crysis, Ninja Gaiden😢, Legacy of Kain series😭😭😭😭-Deep memories with LOK series. Good Tony hawk games-loved project 8,wasteland. Fear-😭😭😭Monolith such a great studio. Burnout series😢😢Metal gear series😭😭. Onimusha series😔😩😫😥😭 Ah man this video is starting to make me depressed. So many great, lost games.
Drakan franchise should be re-masterd/redone. It is very sad and actually pretty weird that since then, the only game that come close to what Drakan was - was Divinity 2 Ego Draconis. But even when compared, the old Drakan was a revolutionary title with a lot of stuff that was very innovative for its time and in many ways it sill holds up even up to this date. It is a shame Drakan was forgotten. It deserved better fate.
Let s not forget that Infamous was once considered The Best superhero simulator on the market. This was before the Arkam series. A remake would be cool.
Yes dude. I've been wanting another Splinter Cell game for the longest. If they could implement some of the stealth mechanics from mgsv that would be amazing. Just no open world map. But semi open levels. Fisher is meant to be a man on the go after all. Maybe get Jon Bernthal to be the new face and voice?
It saddens me that a lot of modern, linear singleplayer games, while having particular merits, are often bogged down too heavily with the intent of making movies instead of games with gameplay first and foremost in mind. There's a reason I've gravitated towards things like Resident Evil 4's remake and the original. There's a balance of gameplay and story that's so well-integrated in such games that I don't think a lot of AAA studios, especially Western ones, are even trying to convey with their outputs. It's why I find it funny how you have to wait for a bloody unnecessary remaster or DLC (more often than not, paid) to get additional modes for replay value in titles like The Last of Us - Part II. Sure, there's no chapter replay in RE4 (wish it did), but, at least, the fun factor makes the game easy to come back to on consecutive replays. Even a game with mixed reception like Army of T.W.O. - The Devil's Cartel makes it so easy to pick up and play with how you can unlock new weapons, attachments, and customize your player accordingly and pick which missions to restart and just have fun with. The only reason I have trouble with it is that it never got released for PC. Playing on PS3 with old-ass controls is just a hassle when the controls suddenly stop working. Lastly, I miss the edgier hack-and-slash games. They don't make 'em like they used to. God of War, Ninja Gaiden, Dante's Inferno... modern gaming is missing out on the charm of those titles.
Man, RE4 says nothing and is about the safest horror game one could possibly play. It's dry, inoffensive, with the mod community ruining it by hypersexualizing all of the leads. It's like dropping a salmon down a waterslide. There's no resistance, it's pretty mindless and rote. And while the story is.. slightly better than the original, it's still just there. It's cool that you don't like games that make you think about anything besides aiming your next headshot or slicing your next demon in half, but you're not 12. Escaping to try and feel like how you felt when you WERE 12 is why modern games fail you. Your brain, during your most formative years, hardcoded those games as the pinnacle of gaming. It's not that they actually WERE that's just what your brain tells you. Like, the first time having sex. You were bad. She didn't know. But you were bad at it. Probably terrible, most guys are. Because they only understand their own body, they haven't put in the effort to get to intimately know their partner. When you're young, you dedicate EVERYTHING to knowing gaming. You pour everything into it, and maybe you had a lot of friends and that's how you connected to them or you didn't have many, and that's how you escaped from a life that wasn't as rosy and happy as you would have liked. Now, gaming isn't something you pour yourself into and APPRECIATE. It's something you force yourself to do, comparing every flaw to the best you've experienced. If you even come close to understanding and appreciating a game now, it's because you pay your own money now and you want to feel like you're not wasting it. Trust me, I counsel a TON of gamers. People who think gaming is worse, but fail to realize their own lives and perspectives have shifted. It's not that you miss the mindless action and senseless violence, the wanton sexuality and objectification of female characters. No, you're just not ready to hear from people who don't know you the truth of how little personal growth you've achieved. The lack of success you've experienced since then. The idea that maybe you're not as deep as you'd have others believe. And it's alright to feel nostalgic. It's a chemical reaction in the brain that's about as addicting as nicotine. But the next time you think about those games, play them. Make the effort and actually play them. Don't just remember them fondly. Take action and play them. And you'll probably realize fairly quickly that they haven't aged as well as your memories have suggested.
My brother in Christ, get some help, touch some grass. Not once did I mention requiring games to have "something to say". I play games primarily for gameplay. If it can deliver on something deeper, then FANTASTIC, but that's a secondary thing for me. And I like RE4 for the replay value and the action-horror elements. I know that it's not a true horror game. And I know it's not that narratively deep. And it doesn't have to be either of those. Also, I'm not even gonna try to converse with you on the way you're being so sensitive about the modding community. Oh, by the way, my personal growth happens away from video games, movies, shows, and general entertainment for the most part. If that's where you're going to find your place in the world and improve yourself, you have something quite frankly wrong with you in the head. And I'm not gonna take anything seriously from someone who counsels people on video games. Pathetic.

I dunno about the West, but didn't they recently make 10 or something? I remember seeing it on either the PS4 or Switch at my game store. Seemed newish.
One franchise i really miss is Soldier of Fortune. The polygone reaction to bullets was a defining feature of the series. It kinda lacked in story and didn't really add anything else to the conversation, but maybe a modernised version might be something quute hnique, given the mostly sterile FPS style that has dominated the past 10 years
Absolutely. While Sekiro (which I enjoyed) had some elements of Tenchu it was still more of a Souls-like game. And a sequel to the Legacy Of Kain-series would be fantastic
Rogue Trip: Vacation 2012, and the car shooter genre in general. I've seen people talk about how that genre made sense for its time because the technology available couldn't easily support a proper FPS, but was made redundant as soon as good FPSs were more accessible, but I want a car shooter. There's no feeling like chasing another car down at high speed, holding down the trigger button, then out of nowhere you get slapped off a cliff by the giant hot dog on the hot dog car. Or the first time you portal to the moon, you see a big bulldozer chasing after you, and you're like "nope see ya" and immediately portal back. Or getting attacked by live chickens that the farmer's car shot at you. The speed you can go at, combined with it being harder to change direction, the ability to intentionally crash, it's a different experience to your standard FPS. Nowadays we see mediocre mini-games that pay homage to it (this channel often talks about the Batmobile being overdone in Arkham Knight), but I'd love to see a full-blown car shooter realized with today's technology
Another game to throw in the stealth pile is Chronicles of Riddick, not enough people have heard of it lol but for its time it was amazing on Xoriginal and later on X360, it was sort of a “prelude” to the movies because you get to see how Riddick got his eyeshine.
Yeah they are making mass effect 5 but the studio isn't the same as it was when it made the first 2 as a bunch of people leaving was why the 3rd one had such a divisive ending but hey I am hopeful that not only will ME5 be great but some how hope Konami realizes they will never make money off metal Gear without Hideo so they should just sell the rights back to him
I am now 41 years old.. O man you took me back to childhood. Splinter cell conviction / Crysis 2 / Far cry 1 .... golden days... Splinter cell conviction is my all time favorite specially the voice of fisher in the game..
I really miss Army of Two I liked the cool, funny bro relationship between Rios and Salem, I liked the customisable masks, the cooperative gameplay. It really liked it and it would be really cool if it came back either as a reboot or a sequel or even as a remaster of the classic.
Burnout! Thank you for explaining all the idiotic reasons manufacturers are giving for why it's no longer being developed. Also, Jak and Daxter would be nice.
Most racing games or racing movies you just can't wait to get into your car and live what you just saw/played. After a few hours with Burnout in the slowed down crashes, cars detonating, and crash mode in all its glory. Then you look at your car and resolve to be safer as now you know what horrors could be visited on you from bad driving. It was great!
Though the writing is quite bad from what I've seen. Non-English speakers, poorly paced, nonsensical plot. Also, I believe it's actually "Trepang²" as in "squared".
One series I'd love to see make a return is Ape Escape, it's a surprise to me that Sony never used it as their go to "tech demo" game to show off the innovative things that the newer consoles/controllers could do.
Metal Gear already has a lot of games, spinoffs and reboots under it's belt. Instead, this list should include gems like Dino Crisis, Driver series, The Getaway etc.
