Good News You Fable Fans

[HelloFriend]

nobody cares about the story of call of duty its about online and honestly if they have zombies i beleieve it can be GOTY

Some people care about the story and it is confirmed that it has an upgraded zombies game mode.

What do you mean? I don't personally like Call of Duty (I'm terrible at it), but it's one of the most popular FPSs out there. It seems like it has a good storyline, and its promising some of the most in depth customization I've ever seen in an FPS.

I don't think anything made by Activison can win GOTY....It's between Red Dead Redemption, Mass Effect 2, Fable III and probably Assassins Creed Brotherhood.

Have you seen any of the videos of Black Ops? It looks like a darn good game. But, its all speculation till the game comes out.

I really hope COD doesn't win. It's just been going on far too long.

 

[VOTE]

TOP 5: not in order
Fable 3
COD Black Ops
Mass Effect 2
Assassin Creed Brotherhood
Red Dead Redemption

either one of these games might be GOTY

 

[Langston]

I love COD, but i hate trayarch. I doubt it will be as fun as it looks....

Theres one thing that nearly every single game developer forgets to put in a game and thats humour.Compare how many time a smile has crossed your face on a game like MW2 to a game like Fable and just think about that.I know games like MW2 are supposed to be serious but sometimes i do think "Are most game developers pessimistic and think they have no purpose in life?" and that is why i think Fable 3 has the highest chance of winning GotY.
, But first we have to take care of all the CoD and Halo Fanboys (+ Girls)..Ps.i'm sorry if i offend anybody during this little rant of mine.

It's because they don't know how to write.

They think, "WE ARE MAKING ART HERE NOT A GAME" (games can be art, but not all games are art, especially not crap like Call of Duty) and then "ART IS ANGSTY THIS GAME MUST BE ANGSTY TO BE ART". And then they get their hacky game writers to do the stuff and voila, crappy game writing.

In my opinion RDR should win GOTY (based on what ive played so far) as it was an epic game and i dont use that term very often. Loved it from start to finish and thought it was a modern day classic.

 

[Autarch]

RDR was pretty good. I think the constant lashings of DLC let it down, though.

How can optional online DLC let a game down?

I was thinking the same thing. :lol:

 

[VicOnTop]

i dont think red dead will win either. lots of reviews state how it got boring and was never finishable.

 

[Autarch]

DLC always lets a game down. xP

I'd really like to read those reviews...if they exist?

Is there a reason as to why they always let a game down?

Other than the fact you have to pay money for products that don't require a great deal of development time (like £10 for something that doesn't have distribution costs, doesn't take that much developer effort etc etc)?

No, not really. ;D

But a lot of the time it's very easy to argue that the new content actually adds and makes the game a much better experience. You do realize that your not paying much so you can't expect a year long development. I was very happy with the content I got in the RDR 'Liars and Cheats' pack, especially for the small price I paid and the limited development time. If I'm paying 10$ I don't expect long development time.

But that's my point, you pay $50 (or whatever it is) for the full game. (Which is mainly a purchase of the license, but also includes the disc, case, packing, transport etc.) You should be able to expect at least a fifth (well, a third, since I think that's about how much they get sold to the stores for) of the content of the full game in the DLC, right?

Of course, you don't get it in the DLC because it's much easier to make quick and cheap things and throw them out at premium prices than actually make decent content packs.

If each DLC WAS like a mini-expansion, I wouldn't mind, but they're more like a single zone (or equivalent) and a bit of easily scripted content.

But the thrown out DLC usually has little impact on the game and is of course, optional. I only believe DLC can let a game down if they charge something like 20$ for an hour long quest and is some sort of continuation of the game hardcore fans will eat up..*coughLeft4dead2cough*
