I miss the days when EVERY game had a demo. It was pretty helpful when you wanted to know if the damn thing would even run on your system. Dishonored 2 had a demo, I just bought a new mid range gaming laptop and it ran great, so they're getting my money.
Although I played Halo 1 and 4 (Played the original and didn't care for it, 4 was good though) I never was a Halo fan. To deny it's place in the hall of fame is ridiculous though. In a lot of PC player's opinions it was a pretty mediocre title because we had been playing games with the same features well before it's debut. Halo had more of an impact on pop culture than anything else, and yes it showed that an FPS was totally doable on a console. For a console game back then it was pretty spectacular. It sort of had a part in ushering in the "Geek Chic" thing as well (whether that's good or bad I have NO idea).
I'm sorry, a company should not have the right to bully a much smaller one because of a word that's used all of the time. I Love my Fallouts and my Elder Scrolls, but I absolutely HATE when companies pull this bullshit. As long as the title wasn't EXACTLY "Prey" there never should be any fear of any larger company threatening a freaking lawsuit. Real dickhead move by those dickhead lawyers.
I'd better start saving up for a Playstation 6...Pro... point 5. Seriously though, it's an interesting curiosity right now, but I'm gonna need to see some game play. I've only ever played and finished Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 4. Oh and Portable Ops, that was really good!
I really haven't played a Street Fighter since Special Edition so I'm a bit behind. I do know this stage is iconic. It's M. Bison's stage at the end of the original Street Fighter 2, and it seems like they've made an updated version of that stage's music. So in this updated version there is a reference to Allah in it now? Hopefully they just remake the song without the reference in it, the instrumentals are classic as far as video games go. That's what I gleaned from the Youtube video embedded in this article anyway. Is it a different song they are talking about?
Are they still doing that teleporting thing to get you around the wasteland in this VR version? I honestly still don't understand how that works, I'd have to see it in action.
@butterworth: I found out a very long time ago not to really give all the attention to that number. Dark Messiah of Might and Magic scored a 6 or a 7, and it's one of my most favorite video games ever. That game has problems, but man that combat is fun!
A 6 does seem pretty low, but you have to remember it's just a number. Look at the good and bad points. I trust those points more than anything when I see the reviews on this website. Looking at the pros and cons there, it seems like if you like fun combat and a lot of pretty places to explore then this game might be for you. If you like a good story and flawless animations to go along with that, not so much. For me, I don't care about story, and I can forgive some technical shortcomings that do not break the game. So I'd give the game a chance.
@ghstimage3691: Yeah I experienced the framerate drops exploring in the exovehicles. Third person is fine, but I'd really like a cockpit view option for those exovehicles.
