  • Crytek to make free-to-play games only

    I did not want to reply at first but this comment is really bothering me. Could you elaborate how you have come to this conclusion?

    Market saturation, specially with garbage titles. The same happened with the tween/casual market on the DS and Wii and the mobile market.

    I hope Crytek will actually try something new other than the "freemium" model... The F2P market is a bubble, everyone is making those games and it will be hard to capitalize in the future.

    Why not just turn into a self publisher and sell their games digitally for cheaper for example? I wonder why no big companies have done that yet. Minecraft is a great example of a successful game sold this way - you get the money straight from consumers, no 3rd party involved to bite a sum of the money, which means that $20 bucks sold on your "own platform" is probably worth more than $60 bucks sold on a retail store. But I could be wrong, this is just my opinion and I'm no games industry analyst...

    Sao Paulo is fucking beautifully done in this game though. Amazing env art. I never use the cover system in this game. Bullet time and iron sights baby

    Yeah they really did their research. I remember a few years ago there was a big rumor that Rockstar was going to set up a new studio in Brazil, but that was probably because their dev team was there for the MP 3 research

    But my feeling is that Portal didn't need it and these features might not add much to the game.

    Isn't it the same for all the other action games with kinect/move implementation?

    i watched by stacking 4 polarised 3D movie glasses on top of each other =). Really cool to see venus as a small round dot on the surface of the sun! A dot that's almost as big as the earth O__O

    that's one big dot bro

    That was fucking awesome. Inventory management + no health regen + scarce ammo. Damn I may even get a ps3 if that game turns out to be as awesome as it seems

    I'd like to see more of the gameplay. It's hard to imagine how the game is gonna play. The person playing the demo never really stops to consider his options, knowing exactly what to do, which makes everything feel heavily scripted: The guy screwing up with the traffic lights at the precise timing to cause the big car crash (what if he missed it by half a second or even did it earlier?), the woman getting shot inside the car, the gas station exploding at the exact same time that the player was looking at it (why was it on fire in the first place?), etc...

    Knowing Ubisoft, this video was probably either heavily staged or heavily scripted. Maybe this is even one of those playable demos dev teams put together to pitch their idea to the HQ?

    It indeed looks pretty awesome (best rain ever?) but I'm curious to see more about the gameplay and will remain skeptical about it until I see more or see other people playing that same sequence.

    just got max payne 3 pre purchase for the pc, along with LA noire (apparently you get it for free when you prepurchase MP3 now), seems like a really good deal if anyone else wants to take advantage

    But Max Payne was released 2 weeks ago?
