Horizon Hunters Gathering will be a given entry on a future list
Highguard, Concord, King of meat, Suicide Squad and there’s 100s more I’m missing
The funny thing about Duke Nukem Forever is that it killed Duke Nukem forever
How about games you THOUGHT would be dead on arrival but ended up being a success. Easy entry - Palworld
My interest was piqued when Geoff announced "former developers of Titanfall". What an epic let down.
Anthem was pretty cool at its core, just so thin in content
Man I miss bomberman 64. Countless hours of fun with my boys.
"Went to plaid." Great Spaceballs reference!
Something that is left out, but was born alongside live services was the push for Esports. Like WoW did for MMOs, League of Legends did for Esports. Every game studio wanted to be the Next Wow/Wow-killer, same was true for competive gaming. The want to be your genre's flagship and monetized digital version of The World Cup was there, and still a hope.
Wow, finally caught falcon so early up
Hitman Absolution was my introduction to Hitman. I loved it. I can't play the earlier ones.
I thought the infinite warfare campaign was awesome. Its one of my favorite campaigns of any fps.
Duke Nukem Forever is why I'm waiting on reviews for GTA6 before I buy.
I just love seeing gollum in the thumbnail 😂
6:29 Marathon should have been made in the same style as Stalker 2, with an emphasis on atmosphere and story telling while meshing hardcore elements. Could have even incorporated the extraction mechanic into it as well. But trend chasing ended up being the nail in the coffin for them.
I enjoyed the Bureau, it's fun if you get it for less than 10 bucks.
I liked hitman absolution. Don't get me wrong it isn't as good as the new ones but it was fun!
DMC would have been a success if they went the Kingdom Hearts 2 route, and revealed their Dante was just a parallel version of the original Dante and tied it into the lore. Instead they acted like they were better than the original.
Artifact: As soon as it was announced to be a paid release it had no chance. First off they were competing against MTG: Arena (odd that Richard Garfield designed this) and Hearthstone. Secondly, it was spawn out of the DotA world whose players had become accustom to the Free-to-Play model. A rare miss for Valve.
Battlefront 2 now is awesome to be honest
