I could be wrong, but I feel as though I remember sandbox being thrown around when people were talking about open-world games. When GTA III first came out, that is exactly what it felt like to me. The only problem is that in recent years we have been given games that actually feel like sandboxes... here is a level, here is your objective, complete it however you must.
Yes to all these please.
I like the idea of being able to nearly anything that you would like. I keep coming back to Dishonored when I think about what I want from open-world games. Dishonored gives you large levels that you can do nearly anything and go nearly everywhere in the confines of the level. The increasing size of the worlds that companies are creating are the thing that doesn't really appeal to me. Who cares if you faithfully recreate the entire United States... I don't want to driver through the Great Plains in real life, what makes you think that I want to do it in a videogame?
I remember playing 2-bit Ninja a couple years back. I had some fun with it.
That Thor run was amazing... I should probably finish it, and read Lady Thor.
I'm not really excited about The Last Guardian. I loved the Shadow of Colossus demo, but never really got into the main games from Team Ico.
I will be significantly more excited about Mass Effect if they announce a PS4 release of the original Trilogy and allow you to import your saves from those games.
Congrats on the leap. I hope someday to get an XBone, especially since they seem to have a great lineup of exclusives. I would like a larger TV first, so the XBone will be years off.
Dinner is important. I can't think about writing unless I have a full stomach.
Same here... The Doctor Who sets are calling my name.
I literally just finished The Deadly Tower of Monsters on PS4 and started Mad Max.
