Bloodborne looks gorgeous... I wasn't much of a fan of DS2. DS1 was my ish and Bloodborne looks to have recaptured the art and graphics that DS1 had

The last of us has one of the most engaging stories to date. The story carried the game. I love stories, so I'd want more games to follow suit. Heavy Rain, Uncharted, GOW(to some extent), and GOW(playstation).

Games with good writing are so few nowadays. I tone out the story for so many games that I play, except those that grip me. I want game cutscenes to be like "you better not skip me or you'll regret it." Instead of cutscenes are like "Hey look at these guys talking while carrying big guns. They have to kill something"

Do you guys think consoles will gain more of these story driven games or do you think the pc will get those?

It's crazy to me that since 2007 I can't even list 10 GOOD not GREAT story driven games, whereas with movies, my list is endless.

I would LOVE to see a video game version of Blood Diamond.

If you haven't seen this movie, I'll personally ship you my copy.

Loved The Last Of Us. The great story and voice acting made it so awesome. Definitely took fame storytelling to another level. Would say it's my favorite ps3 game along with Mass Effect 2. Can't believe gta5 beat both of those games on a list of the best ps3 games. Got bored with that game quick and never finished it.

In you guys' opinion, what makes a great story? I think I'm pretty easy to please when it comes to storytelling. I loved TLOU, Uncharted, Red Dead Redemption, God of War 3, Gears of War, Lost Odyssey, Final Fantasy X.  I just want to know what makes a good story?

Check out Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, if you haven't already. It's the best story I've ever seen. Troy Baker is in it too.



I still need to get into the ME series. I've been slacking on ME 1.

I agree. GTA5's story was so boring. I tried to get into it, but man those boring missions...

I found trevor to be more annoying that funny.

Literally just sold it today, and I bought it on release day.

What do you like about Lost Odyssey?

 

[Ricky D]

What do you like about Lost Odyssey?
[/quote]Characters, villain, turn based, music (composed by the God himself, Nobuo Uematsu), storyline. Easily one of my favorite last gen games, second to Star Ocean The Last Hope in terms of JRPGs.

We still of course have to actually send them a unit, right?

I'm going to look up the X1's release list. If there are five exclusives that I would want to play on it I think I'm going to pull the trigger.

• The first Unreal Engine 3 game released, and has since been replaced by Unreal Engine 4.
• Every Assassin's Creed game was released.
• The entire Mass Effect trilogy was released.
• In 2006, indie games were a fringe industry with almost no widely known games.
• In 2006, Naughty Dog was primarily known as the Jak & Daxter studio.

[Bad Religion]

It's not like the series hasn't had releases: XIII, XIII-2, LR:FF, X/X-2 HD, XIV, I-IX available digitally, Crisis Core, Dissidia, Dissidia Deodecumasfdas (whatever that made up word is), Agito, Type-0, dozens of mobile. XIII Versus/XV has been on the back burner and from all accounts, it's only made the game better.
