Infinity Blade III is "truly a next-gen gaming experience," says dev

Truth bruthas, I just stood in line waiting for GTA V and so many of my kids kept shouting out Mr. ******! I was actually pretty amped that my juniors and seniors were out and there were in groups of 5-10, at least some proof that people who love violent games aren't isolated maniacs, and there was even a dad there who spoke to me about his son's grades and whether or not I thought the game would impede midterms. I told him 1 hour a night, weekends when the homework is done, and he could keep up with grades and completed assignments on Blackboard. We all gathered up and played some cell games and the dad had all of the DLC for PvZ2 which was nice to experiment with. Kids know what is good and they're just as competitive as we are when it comes to wanting that next big experience.

Unless the mobile devices can manifest themselves into 52 inch screens in 1080p and produce a similiar quality of sound as an expensive home theater system then you Sir Mustard should have the "Mus" removed from your name

yeah,swining around in both hands with sweat dripping all around, hands sahking, accidental 700 buck shitphone drop as the result of so called "next gen" - trully "great" experience. Maybe this Mustard is caveman, renting his cave from apple for like 10000 a month without permission to turn on his own brain? Oh, I forgot - with permission it will be like 25000. And when he'll forget to pay, they'll sue him for using their, apple's , patent for brain functions and they'' feed him to sharks while masturbating on gory view. Assholes.

Next-Gen Mobile for sure....But, the Xbox-One and the PS4 will kick the shit out this. Mobile devices are just catching up....like Nintendo


I don't want to play on my 7-10" Tablet on my couch in front of my 55" TV, with shitty gameplay/graphics.

CONSOLES/PC GAMING WINNING

Colonel Mustard in the library with a preposterous statement.

How does "truly next-gen" = swipe swipe tap with enhanced graphics on a 4.87in screen?

If it were truly next-gen, would that not require a different, never experienced play style or feature set?

Now next-gen mobile graphics? Sure. It has those in spades.

"truly a next-gen gaming experience". For the iPhone at least. You know what, considering how great the previous 2 games are, this is kind of true, but these next line here is obviously complete nonsense. "forget the next consoles, this is the future of gaming." Oh really, so games like Titanfall, Final Fantasy XV, Kingdom Hearts 3, Destiny, MGS5 and Watch Dogs are not the future of gaming? Only a fanboy can say that.

Nevertheless, this game is one of my most anticipated iPhone game ever, besides the Room 2. Can't wait to get my hands on it. Infinity Blade III is eight times larger than the 2011 original game, and with additional downloadable content later, which are free of charge and are in the form of updates, and with a main character voiced by Troy Baker who stars in every awesome games recently like Last of Us, Bioshock Infinite and Catherine, all for $7. Besides GTA5, this game will be the only thing I play this next 3 months. And then after the update is released with more new features like the vs mode, possibly, I'll play that along with my PS4 games. Great2 games coming up! Can't wait!

*cough "mobile" next gen

If this is true next-gen gaming to them then morgan freeman must really be god

Still no face?

You really have to understand the controls in the series to appreciate the IB games. This is not merely a blindsided swipe and attack play mechanic. Each boss and major boss fight is challenging and to beat most of the later bosses, takes patience and skill, sometimes luck. Knowing the loot and items to equip, being prepared (potions, magic, etc) for each fight.

I suppose with games like Ryse for XB1 being used for comparison, you could say ID3 is a console-like experience. Compare it to something like Dark Souls, though and you see it's gameplay has not even come close to the experiences provided by the best console games.

Nearly every positive he states regarding games on mobile could be applied to PC. PS4 & XB1 are moving in that all-in-one direction. All that's left as an advantage is the mobile aspect. Sorry, but the kids of today will still enjoy games on the big screen sitting in their comfy living room.

His story is good for marketing, but fails at considering the many different lifestyles around the globe. His kids are not the same as everyone else.

Its easy to make a "high resolution" character when it only has 3 animations...

Yeah sure, casual gamers will play most games on a handheld, but many people just want fully realized graphics and a full non touch controller to play on their 80" tv with full surround sound capabilities. Until handhelds have those qualities, 'regular' consoles will continue to sell well.

Gamespot can we add LOL button just for this story.

Does this guy expect us to believe this, it will be another good looking IOS game with horrible frustrating controls.

As for the graphics I think it's missing a lot in the lighting and special effects department.

The one possible way I can see this game being fun is on an Ouya with a controller, and we know how many people own an Ouya.

...says the guy that Apple pays a LOT of money to, just to keep his titles platform-exclusive.

...and on the same day that Wall Street shit all over Apple's new HW announcements.

I can't wait till we start seeing some unreal engine games on next gen consoles, mainly Gears of War

It has no gameplay, who cares if its pretty...

IB gameplay sucks

**** iPhone. make it for android instead.

They have a lot of talent and I would love to see what they could so without the limitations and poor controls of mobile devices.

This is typical marketing fluff but he does have one very good point, which is loading time. Many smartphones have 1-2GB of RAM. This means you can load tons of assets in advance, compared to the current consoles that are very RAM constricted. The upcoming consoles absolutely destroy smartphones when it comes to gaming though.

Hmmmm...4" screen vs. 40" screen...no contest.

If the next gen of gaming means quick time events and tapping the screen continuously..... Mobile games and premium games will slowly kill true gaming...

no, no it isnt.

Clearly they've never heard of tesselation. All the textures are so so flat. Yes it looks great for a phone game. But other than that. no thanks. No matter how much the industry pushes towards mobile gaming. They'll never convince the real gaming crowd.

Unfortunately, we may be the minority. And numbers count.

@arqe Divide 2 what ? games cost 50 on pc ( 2500 for 5 year ) .

Yeah, yeah, yeah... All about the graphics, same deal as usual. What these people don't seem to understand is, it doesn't matter how pretty it may look, a phone game is still a phone game. As far as actual gameplay quality goes, they still have a long road ahead of them.

I don't even know where to start. They don't have even remotely close the same graphical capabilities and more important they offer butchered gameplay due to no FREAKIN BUTTONS. There's only so much you can do with touchscreen controls.

This guy is so full of it.

I don't care what they call this game, I just want to play it!

i phone games are crap. traditional consoles will always be nasty touch screen games. oh and x1 is an all in one devices.

"feature about four times the resolution of a console character"

What?? These characters PALE in comparison to what we're already seeing on PS4 and X1 characters.

And WTF is this?? "And it's only going to be a few years before those teenagers are in their twenties and their thirties and the idea of being limited to something I have to sit down on my couch and interact with I think is a fairly foreign concept to them."

Limited? Is this guy seriously complaining about having to sit on a fucking COUCH?? Good lord. The stupidity of this guy is mind boggling.

Guy and his kids are completely like this - http://www.dailyfailcenter.com/94417

Hype hype and more hype. What a load of marketing BS.

specifically calling out the 45-second load times in Bethesda's open-world game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA~ 45 seconds? he might played the Skyrim with a PC sitting on his dad's attic.
