GodGraviel Member May 29, 2024 222 luca Member Oct 25, 2017 19,484 That's funny. I just purchased the entire series to have them on physical media. I've only beat the first 3 back when they first came out, but I'm gonna do the next three including Double Agent - the OG Xbox version - next. I'll be over the moon if they announce a new game. And I think I'll be interested in a Splinter Cell 1 remake (since it's the one that's a bit rough), but would prefer a sequel.  Last edited: Today at 8:54 AM charlieonhere Member Jul 11, 2018 99 That's a very Splinter Cell 1 looking Sam Fisher   Kadzork Has got mad skills!!

Even if it was a remake or remaster of the original 3, I have absolutely zero confidence Ubisoft would do them justice. They would most likely have just outsourced them to the cheapest bidder.  Mr Evil 37 Member Mar 7, 2022 28,115 vestan said: If it's a game and not just some social media post then it's the Blacklist remaster.

Click to shrink... For sure, I never actually played the OG trilogy so I would love to have a collection of the first three so that I can experience them. For some reason the last few weeks I have been craving to play a new Splinter Cell, the gameplay is unlike any other stealth game and Sam Fisher and his tool set is to damn cool. What a franchise, to bad Ubisoft has abandoned it in the last decade and hopefully that will change next week.  Last_colossi The Fallen Oct 27, 2017 4,656 Australia Mr Evil 37 said: We already know officially they're making a remake of 1.

I'm not sure this is just a screenshot from an older game either, but could be indicative of an announcement sure, I did enjoy the first 3 games, so would be interested in even just remakes/remasters of them.

PS5 can still be a great console but it won’t be because of Sony – Reader’s Feature GameCentral Published May 25, 2025 1:00am Sales of the PS5 and PS5 Pro are more or less the same as the PS4 (Sony) A reader suggests that Sony’s peculiar attitude towards the PS5 does make sense and it’s all to do with what more casual gamers want and expect from a console. I read with interest a recent Reader’s Feature that talked about the PlayStation 6 being a chance for Sony to wipe the slate clean and start again, hopefully more in the style of the PlayStation 4. I think that they are probably right, in terms of Sony’s reputation for first party games, but I think we need to remember that that is not the be all and end all of consoles. One of the reasons the PlayStation 5’s sales have not suffered, despite Sony’s poor management, is that it has had virtually no competition from Xbox. There are already almost no current gen exclusives of any importance and sales are so bad for the Xbox Series X/S that it wouldn’t even matter if there were. With the Switch unable to play current gen games this has led to the PlayStation 5 being the undisputed market leader for triple-A games, without raising a finger and despite not having even half as many quality first party games as last gen. What this means is that if you played a triple-A game on a current gen console then the odds are it was on the PlayStation 5. Elden Ring, Baldur’s Gate 3, Metaphor: ReFantazio, Resident Evil 4 remake, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, Street Fighter 6, Tekken 8, Monster Hunter Wilds, Deliverance: Kingdom Come 2, Assassin’s Creed Shadows, Call Of Duty, EA Sports FC… if you’ve enjoyed a big budget third party game this gen you’ve probably done it on the PlayStation 5. This is where I feel there is a bit of a disconnect between what hardcore gamers think of Sony’s current attitude and them not realising that it has had little to no impact on their success. Most people don’t actually buy consoles for their exclusives (Nintendo excluded) which is probably one reason why Sony felt comfortable reducing their output. I’d love to know what the exact stat is, but it wouldn’t surprise me if fully half of all PlayStation owners only buy one to play EA Sports FC and Call Of Duty/free online shooters. Which also explains Sony’s push for live service games, which is not necessarily foolish in terms of the idea, just incompetent in terms of how they’ve executed it. For many people PlayStation is video games and even though games like The Last Of Us and God Of War get a lot of attention, which probably makes people feel better about owning a PlayStation 5, they’re still only a drop in the ocean compared to the sales of multiformat games with vastly less critical acclaim. The opposite is true too. Returnal might have won a Bafta and been GC’s favourite PlayStation 5 game, but it barely sold a million copies. No one played it and most PlayStation 5 owners have probably never even heard of it (I loved it, by the way). So I think that’s why Sony is happy to be aloof and uncommunicative, because they’re winning by basically doing nothing, so why say anything to draw attention to it or upset people? It might be maddening to us gamers that they won’t acknowledge the change in policy, but from their point of view that can only be a bad thing. More Trending As far as the average gamer is concerned the PlayStation 5 is a good console with great games, it’s just their criteria for what makes a great game is very different from more hardcore gamers. Likewise, their idea of whether a console is value for money or not is different. They never wanted the PlayStation 5 to be anything more than it is and they’re not disappointed at all.

Also, the folks behind Assassin’s Creed Shadows told us why they opted not to let you kill animals in the open-world adventure, fans of Clair Obscur react to the trollish behavior of the game’s enemies, and Neil Druckmann is once again explaining stuff about the world of The Last of Us that some fans, at least—our writer included--think would be better left ambiguous.Previous SlideNext SlideList slidesPlayers Are Obsessed With How Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's Enemies Keep Trolling ThemScreenshot: Cilvanis / YouTubeOne of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33's big innovations is adding a dodge, parry, and counter system to its otherwise traditional turn-based battles. It’s a clever tweak that helps keep combat engrossing for its 30+ hour journey and also an incredible opportunity for the game’s developers to troll the crap out of players. - Ethan Gach Read MorePrevious SlideNext SlideList slidesI Wish Neil Druckmann Would Stop Confirming Things About The Last Of UsScreenshot: Naughty Dog / KotakuYou might not know it based on my scathing recaps of The Last of Us’ second season, but I love this series. I love the moral conundrums it presents, the violent grief it depicts, and the games’ excellent writing that poignantly brings all of those complicated emotions to the surface. What I don’t like is listening to pretty much any of the creative team talk about the series, especially when it comes to weighing in on decade-long discourse around its complex storylines. Even when I agree with series director Neil Druckmann’s interpretation of something, we’d all rather he just let bad readings fester in the corners of the internet than tell us exactly what something means. Nevertheless, he continues to do so in interviews. - Kenneth Shepard Read MorePrevious SlideNext SlideList slidesUbisoft Explains Why You Can’t Kill Animals In Assassin’s Creed ShadowsScreenshot: Ubisoft / KotakuAssassin’s Creed Shadows is a very good game that animal lovers can enjoy because there’s no way to harm a single creature in the game (except for people, of course).

Development on the RPG, code-named “Orion,” is in full swing after the studio wrapped support for the original game last year, but the team is still keeping most details about it under wraps, other than a few informal quotes here and there about the vibe it’s trying to capture. However, Mike Pondsmith, the creator of the Cyberpunk tabletop roleplaying game, which first debuted in 1988, has revealed a pretty important piece of information: Alongside returning to the capitalist hellscape of Night City, the sequel will take us to another city as well. - Kenneth Shepard Read MorePrevious SlideNext SlideList slidesClair Obscur: Expedition 33 Promises Fresh Round Of Collector’s Editions As Originals Resell For Over $800Image: Sandfall InteractiveRPG fans love their Collector’s Editions, but few guessed just how big or good Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 would turn out to be, including its own developers. The result was that a very limited set of physical releases, including Collector’s Editions exclusive to certain retailers, immediately vanished from store shelves.

Microsoft knowingly provides Israel with technology, including artificial intelligence (AI), that is deployed to facilitate grave human rights violations, war crimes, crimes against humanity (including apartheid), as well as genocide. In light of the International Court of Justice's legally-binding rulings to prevent Israel's plausible genocide in Gaza, as well as its July 19 Advisory Opinion affirming Israel's illegal occupation and apartheid system, Microsoft has failed its corporate obligation to prevent genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity.

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora Might Get Director’s Cut Re-Release – Rumour While Ubisoft hasn't commented on the matter yet, a Director's Cut release would likely also include both of the game's expansions. Posted By Joelle Daniels | On 21st, May. 2025 Ubisoft might looking to bring back its open-world adventure game Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora through a Director’s Cut release. While the company is yet to provide any confirmation about the matter, Insider Gaming’s Tom Henderson’s post on social media indicates that this might be the case. A Director’s Cut release of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora will likely include all of the DLCs that have been released for the game so far. There might also be new content and other enhancements developed for the release. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora was released all the way back in December 2023. The title has since seen quite a bit of support from Ubisoft, including updates with new features, like one bringing a 40 FPS mode on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, as well as full-blown expansions in the form of The Sky Breaker and Secrets of the Spire. The game takes place around eight years before the events of the original Avatar movie, and revolves around five young Na’vi children – the player character (Sarentu), Ri’nela, Aha’ri, Teylan, and Nor, being trained by Dr. Alma Cortez and John Mercer to be Na’vi-Human ambassadors. Things don’t quite go smoothly, however, and the Na’vi children end up escaping from their training. For more details about Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora, check out our review of the base game, as well as its expansions The Sky Breaker and Secrets of the Spire.

Soul Trader Following the breakout success of Metaphor Refantazio, Atlus’ only action-RPG gets a second lease of life on Switch 2 (and it’s pretty good, too) Nearly 20 years later, Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army proves that there’s a bit of life left in the peculiar spin-off series yet. Image credit: Atlus Article by Dom Peppiatt Editor-in-chief Published on May 21, 2025 By now, you should know what to expect from an Atlus game. Whether you’re wading into the Boschian fever dream of Metaphor Refantazio or winding your way down the seven circles of hell in Shin Megami Tensei, Atlus likes it dark. Dark and weird. Unconstrained by the trappings of normalcy. A bit edgy and a bit juvenile, but all provocative and goth. Raidou Kuzonha vs. The Soulless Army is no exception. The curious PS2 game (which enjoyed a 2006 release in Japan and North America, and 2007 in PAL regions) carries on Atlus’ fascination with the occult and the Satanic, but with one major variation from all the developer’s other titles: this one is an action-RPG. To see this content please enable targeting cookies. Now, you need to immediately get your brain away from the idea it’s a Soulslike, or anything similar. It’s more of a hack-and-slash, peppered with the need for strategic flourish. Unlike previous MegaTen games (and their use of the phenomenal Press Turn system), your protagonist, Raidou Kuzunoha, can attack with either his close range sword or his long range gun. But this wouldn’t be a MegaTen game without demons, so of course Kuzunoha can also summon two demons at a time to help in battle. At launch, this game was fine. I’m a MegaTen sicko, so of course I played this as soon as it hit the PAL market (I also played the sequel, later, which is better in almost every way). It wasn’t anything to write home about, really, and the combat was grating more than it was inventive. But, oh my, how all that has changed now - nearly two decades later. Coming to the Switch 2 at launch, Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. the Soulless Army Remastered is a bit of a misnomer. What we’re getting here is more of an enhanced version, and one that actually feels like a natural and intentional growth of the original game. And do you know why that is? Because, somehow, many of the same developers that worked on Raidou and its sequel during the PS2 era are still at the studio. This is Tsuchigumo, and I don't think he likes you very much. | Image credit: Atlus Yeah, I know, right? What’s effectively happened here is that Atlus has been able to say to its staff: “hey, remember that game you very nearly got right at launch in 2006? Have another swing at it. Load it with all those cool combat ideas you wanted, improve the systems, take what we’ve learned in the last 19 years and go wild”. And the result is an enhanced piece of niche role-playing history that plays better than ever. First up, Atlus has remade the game’s pre-rendered backgrounds into actual 3D. Everything looked fine before, but now there’s more interactivity, more impetus to get off the beaten path (and, potentially, more to actually do - negating some criticism of the game’s short length from its release). Atlus has crammed more demons into the roster, too, meaning you’ve got more freedom in how you approach battles, as well as more options for summoning and fusing. Again, this feels like a direct reply to criticisms of the game’s small offering at launch in 2006. If you’re a MegaTen sicko, you’ll appreciate the additions of demons like Idun, Hayataro, and more from SMT:5. The combat upgrades themselves - more status effects, a more streamlined menu, more movement for Raidou in battle, more control over your demons - all seem to have been retroactively added into the game from the second in the series. No complaints, here; Devil Summoner 2: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon improved upon the first game in nearly every way. It makes for a far better experience than the original game, and one that actually stands up pretty well in 2025. It’s not exactly going to blow newcomers away, but it’s novel - and a perfect ‘on the go’ kinda game to show off on the Switch 2’s fancy hardware. I'll defeat you with the power of friendship and this gun I found. | Image credit: Atlus Another small quality-of-life thing that’s worth mentioning is the encounter rate. It’s been fixed. No more random encounters. Instead, demons are visible on-screen and you (sort of) get to choose when to engage. To make things even more engaging, we’ve got English voice acting, too… And you know what? It’s pretty good! And that may be what makes this re-release so appealing to me, actually. The original Raidou games contain some of the most enjoyable, and memorable, narrative moments from any title Atlus has ever made. Yes, that includes Persona. There is a humour to these games that really works - and the interactions between Raidou himself and his familiar cat Gouto is a great example of good games writing: tutorializing whilst delivering story. Your demons have all those powers outside battle (so you can reveal the hidden thoughts of NPCs - often vulgar, always funny - or roleplay as a detective to see more in a given scene). The weird, occult-leaning setting of 1920s Japan is fairly unique, and Atlus does well to dive into how curious it is, understanding that it’s a time of change, a time of anxiety, but also of excitement and growth. Having this coloured in with competent and fun voice-acting is something I didn’t know I needed. Batles are a bit complicated, but once you nail the rhythm, they work well. | Image credit: Atlus This is a far better product than I was expecting, honestly. The Shin Megami Tensei 3 remaster was fairly basic and barebones, but this… this is a shining example of how you can re-release a game some 19 years later and have it actually offer something new, and fix things that the original version lacked. After a brief preview, this has gone from ‘hm, that’s interesting’ to ‘oh, well I’m going to buy that, then.’ Your mileage may vary, of course, but I think this is a fascinating example of what Atlus can cook up with its legacy titles. Now, where’s my Digital Devil Saga 1 + 2 HD Remaster, ey?
