Hence why I stopped taking "gaming media" opinions seriously lol.

Sam Fisher2132d ago

Yea im still old fashioned. It whatever catches my eyes, and if im iffy about it i go see gameplay from it before purchase and research it myself

OB1Biker2132d ago

I believe its a very cynical business.

SquareBurgers2131d ago

Why I take readers of N4G with a grain of salty.

TheColbertinator2132d ago

Laser League must be a sleeper hit.
Ouch for State of Decay 2.

coolbeans2132d ago

One of my favorite surprises of the year thus far.

Sam Fisher2132d ago

That and overcooked are up there for me

Edge's review of Detroit is incredibly predictable

PhantomTommy2132d ago

Much like the narrative in.... ah it's not even worth it. Beyond: Two Souls was absolutely god awful -- at the very least Detroit is a step up and far more enjoyable than Beyond. but Is it an 8, 9 or 10?? Hell no. It's average, not great not terrible... a 5.

coolbeans2132d ago

You know...I was REALLY tempted to respond with something like this a few hours back. :P

RedDevils2132d ago

I'm guessing you hate gaming

coolbeans2131d ago

@RedDevils

Criticizing a few David Cage games =/= 'hating' gaming. That's just such an uninspired response.

OB1Biker2131d ago (Edited 2131d ago )

There are so many branches the story can go. Saying its predictable is just silly.. Just Connor story and how things go with Hank, there are like a dozen different ways depending on your choices/actions.
Thing is its fine not to like this type of games but you have to give credit where its due. The game is very well done in what it was trying to achieve and absolutely delivers on its ambition to let you play your own story.

You guessed right, I HATE gaming. I just wish it would go away. "Damn gaming" -- that's me, I say that all the time.

OB1Biker
I don't mean to sound like I think my opinion is fact and I'm always happy to hear the reasons why people enjoyed a game. Glad you enjoyed it. I do like narrative driven games like this, though. I adored What Remains of Edith Finch last year and I even enjoyed Heavy Rain back in the day. I was happy to give Cagey boy a bit of a pass on the first two but we're four games in now and I'm still holing down the bloody R2 button and wiggling the right analog stick while the characters say ludicrous things. There's a lot I like about Detroit and a lot I don't like. Overall I still think it's good, I just wish it was better.

That's great. Quantic Dream took everything they learned from their past games and built the most refined, coherent and interesting game and story yet. I even bought it on both PS4 and PC.

Seraphim463d ago

I preferred Beyond Two Souls. Still, Detroit was an exceptional experience just like Heavy Rain. Definitely happy to see the game has sold well over the years.

Fist4achin462d ago

Beyond was outstanding. Their other games were great, but BTS was my favorite so far.

CrimsonIdol463d ago (Edited 463d ago )

It took them nearly 5 years to accomplish that compared to a game that's just come out. Willing to bet a majority of those sales were heavily discounted too. Quantic Dream games were always heavily spruiked by Sony as exclusive graphical showpieces for the Playstation, so I'm sure that helped out too.

For reference the original Dead Space sold 2 Million over its lifetime, so some new IP from a new studio approaching that in its first year or so really isn't that bad.

sagapo463d ago

Great game, really enjoyed this one.
