Treyarch also did Ultimate Spider-Man I just found out! It's the only Spider-Man game I've played and I really liked it. That's five Spider-Man games by Treyarch which all got decent reviews if not up to Batman: Arkham Asylum standards. I think I'm gonna like this.
I guess it's because I played U1 and felt like, wow, games are doing the movie thing too now. I still haven't played U2 but I remember the even more action-movie style demos for it. Ultimately it doesn't really matter because everyone has been watching Naughty Dog this generation. They're the king of cinematic style gaming in my opinion whichever game you choose.
I guess so, but their both pretty influential. Uncharted 2 much more dramatically. Still, I remember 1 also being a big deal when it came out. U2 just did it even more. That's why I agree with you that U2 is a good choice.
I think Naughty Dog had everyone looking at their games from the first Uncharted, but your choice of Uncharted 2 is a good one since that's probably the best representation of their style.
I guess I should compare Oblivion to Enchanted Arms since they both came out in '06. Those games are very different.
Multiplayer innovation started with Halo 2 last gen and continued with the other Bungie games, but yea, CODMW really ran with it and got even more massive participation from gamers. It's THE multiplayer game of this generation with Halo a close but fading second.
I think Last of Us goes under the list of all the Naughty Dog games this generation as ones that have pushed the envelope of cinematic feel in games. All started with Uncharted 1 and they continue to impress with that style.
Yea, Castle Crashers too. Indie games are really pushing to the front now because of successes like Braid and Journey etc... .
I just saw Pokemon doing this with tiny figures that you can get that will appear in the game at Gamestop the other day. I was wondering when they would catch up to what Skylanders was doing.
Funny, when I booted up Oblivion again after a while and the camera in the opening cinematics sweeps over The Imperial City, I couldn't help thinking of JRPG's and epic architecture like in Final Fantasy XII. WRPG's and JRPG's are actually not so far apart really.
