Bethesda > Bioware :mad:

[XwolverineX]

Dave, no way. Bioware > All

[Mentok]

At making **** overhyped games maybe.

[XwolverineX]

No, at making unblievable spectacular games that everyone without sucky opinions love. :mad:

[lars573]

Let's look critically at Biowares games. Neverwinter nights=:down, KOTOR1=:up:, Jade Empire=meh, Baldur's gate 1 and 2 (PC version)=:down, MDK2=meh, and I've never played shattered steel.

So it looks like your basing that Bioware=greatness solely on KOTOR1 and possibly J.E. Looking at the big picture Biowars just another developerness comes out.

[Mentok]

The only decent thing they have done was KotoR and that was only so popular because it has STAR WARS written on the front.

Oblivion pwns it easily.

Zenien...making a topic...about a 360 game.....that doesn't crap on it?






Wait, since when is Mass Effect coming out on the PS3?

[Manny Calavera]

It's not, Microsoft is publishing all three games, it won't ever touch sony hardware. And zenien, this should have been in my much better thread :(

[Speedball]

I can't believe how HUGE this game is.
How long is it gonna take to beat? 1 year?

[Manny Calavera]

Post in this, much superior thread, not this cheap knock off (http://www.superherohype.com/forums/showthread.php?t=246351)

[Zenien]

I didn't see your god thread. You should really be more supportive, as this is one of the Xbox 360 games I have to have, what with Oblivion sucking something has to rise to the ocassion just once. I need my western RPG fix, and even though Obsidian games will be on the PS3, THIS won't be.

[TheCardPlayer]

Poor Zenien. Just drop Sony and join us. You'll feel much better. And you'll be able to actually play Oblivion instead of acting like you did.

[Manny Calavera]

No, she really did play Oblivion, and it really did suck :(

EDIT: Oh, and Obsidian's games are not all going to show up on PS3, I heard a rumor on 1UP about it, must be true :o

[Mr. Smash'n Bash]

Oblivion is teh awesome. :mad:

[Manny Calavera]

Until you play it for more than 10 levels, at which point it's teh awful :(

[Mr. Smash'n Bash]

Lies and Slander!

[Manny Calavera]

Oblivion would have been a lot better if it didn't punish you for making progress through the game, if Radiant AI wasn't a big sham, and if there was a point in exploration with things being hidden, if items were hand placed and not randomly generated from levelled lists like some dinky MMO which would have made being a Thief more fun (or fun period) and would have made adventuring worthwhile, and it would have been cool if there were more terrain types than just "forrest". I really hope the ESV coming out soon using Oblivion tech rumors are true, and that they do it closer to Morrowind than this, because Oblivion was a huge disappointment to me. I literally stopped playing and following games for a long time after playing it :(

[クジラ]

What's so big about Mass Effect? I haven't done much research on it.Can someone fill me in? Thanks for any info.

[keith_v]

Am I the only one who's getting a little tired of the futuristic sci-fi games? I mean, this may be a great game, but it seems that every video game that comes out is a futuristic sci-fi game. The concepts of the game, while interesting, just don't look like anything I've never seen before.

You will never see anything that looks like something you haven't seen before. In art, there's no such thing as a new idea.

I haven´t posted in the Hype for quite some time, even less on games board, but i have to do it now.
Unless your joking, this is the most ridiculous post i´ve seen in a very long time.
You don´t have the slightest clue of what you are talking about, Neverwinter Nights is amazing, and Baldur´s Gate is one of the most incredible series you will ever have the pleasure to play.
Then you have games made by Black Isle (now called Obsidian), made in partership with Bioware, Icewind Dale and Planescape: Torment.
Now can anyone in it´s right mind say that Bioware is not all that or that sucks?

Bioware and Blizzard are far ahead of anything else.
Of course there are plenty of amazing developers out there too.
But no, Bioware is not God, because God is fiction :oldrazz:

Now The Elder Scrolls, now there is a extremely overrated series, not saying that they are not not great games, but they are nothing more a bunch of situations thrown in with a story to fill in the gaps.
When in a game you can turn into a vampire, then a werewolf....it´s just senseless, things happen for the hell of it, nothing more nothing less.

I was being serious. Neverwinter Nigths was horrible, Baldur's Gate was even worse. I never got out the first module of the main NWN story it was so unplayably bad. And I bought it so I'd have enough time to play it. Even massivley cheating couldn't make it worth even trying to suffer through it's crappiness, like Diablo 2. In the year since I made that post I've finished Jade Empire. Good story, s--- game play mechanics.

I consider Blizzard the most creatively bankrupt developer out there. They keep making the same games. All their RTS games play exactly the same.

Open games like ES have that problem.

Too bad they haven't made a Diablo in forever though. I believe Diablo 3 is in some stage of development, but if after all this time we're just now seeing traces of StarCraft 2, I don't even know how long it will be until we see another Diablo game.

Even though story-wise, there shouldn't be able to be another Diablo. :(

[lars573]

To make Diablo interesting I used a trainer. The Jamella one IIRC. Otherwise it was not that great.

But there's always fresh ways of approaching old ideas. I know I'm basing my assuptions on this game from a few screens and concepts, but just the visuals of the game look hackneyed.

And there's always new and fresh ideas out there, it's just that people haven't thought of them yet. They may feel like things that came before them, but there's always a way to make it original.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Starcraft is a national sport in Korea. Warcraft III has some of the most played mod's of any game out there (DOTA and such). Diablo II is STILL going strong despite it comming out almost a decade ago. World of Warcraft is one of the biggest online games of all time.

Blizzard knows exactly how to make games. They arn't "creative" (haha, yeah right, Diablo II set the standard for hack-n-slash games with it's RPG elements, and WC2 set the standard for RTS's to come with map makers. SC improved upon that, as well as giving you the ability to not need to know how to mirco, and making the game, if you wanted, a huge galactic battleground with aliens and spaceships and pew pew pew. Warcraft III has it's AMAZING map editor, which you can literally do almost anything with. WoW is...well it's just another MMO, but it's tailored towards newbs, without forgoing the endgame everyone wants that arn't total noobs.

Yeah, Blizzard sure hasn't done anything creative. :whatever: :whatever: :dry: :dry: :dry:

Guns are for anyone who is realistic about the dangers of the world. People would get mugged a lot less if muggers were getting killed over half the time by defensive victims.

I might buy a gun if I ever get a license.

[WhatsHisFace]

I'd like a gun one day. Not because I'd want to have to use it in a situation of defense (I'm not looking for fights) but I think owning a gun and being responsible with it is a good thing.

A lot of people who have guns, shouldn't have guns though. :(

There was a game called "Metal Wolf Chaos" that FROM Soft was making for the Xbox, where you play as the President of the USA in control of a Transformer-like robot, and he had a voice like a teenager and actually said "Let's do this!!!" but I think it got cancelled.

Gears of War and Serious Sam have their moments of ham. I really like the Gear's "let's rock" attitudes. :(

It has recently gained cult status in North America after a series of YouTube (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YouTube) videos depicting the game's cheesy voice acting, nonsensical plot, and engrish (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engrish) quotes, such as "Nothing is pointless and the reason is because I'm the president of the great United States of America. Yeah!", "You guys are roast chicken!" or "Suck on my Missile Punch!".

The combat is fully real-time, with you having the ability to pause the action to make tactical decisions like ordering your squad around and so-forth, but none of it is turn-based. Watch the gameplay videos.

GRAW was a really good game. It had very solid mechanics, a very exhilarating campaign, great AI, huge levels and the best graphics of it's time.
