The Gears of War: E-Day beta headshot sound was way too subtle and didn't have that iconic distinct POP as the first game had. I frequently couldn't tell if I got a headshot or not based simply on the audio cues. Such a simple fix would go a long way.
I work in the field almost every day during the summer and, while I've definitely had some ticks on my clothes, I feel like the amount that I've had latch onto my clothes this year is significantly less than last year. Just wondering if anybody else feel that way or has noticed the same thing?
It is fun
Maybe I have just never noticed this before, but is XBOX putting "Game Disc" on the bottom of their cover art of all of their new releases a new thing that they started to do or has it been around for a while?
Maybe this will mean they are going to still release physical copies for the time being and incorporate it into their rumored "disc to digital" feature?
With rumors and fears that there will be layoffs and studio closures, Double Fine finds themself right in the middle of the rumor mill. Double Fine is an extremely talented studio, and they have made one of my favorite games (Psychonauts 2).
Their art design and identity (platformers) would be perfect for a game like Banjo Kazooie. It seems like Xbox wants to bring back more established IPs and with Spyro coming back (and seeing how well the reveal trailer did on views alone), it might be time to bring Banjo back and give it to Double Fine instead of potentially closing them down.
Many of the people who grew up with and love Banjo Kazooie now have children of their own and Banjo would definitely be something that they can introduce their kids too.
According to GameStop pre-order page: "Play it your way: solo, in 2-player split-screen co-op (console only), or up to 4-player online co-op with full crossplay and cross-progression support.*"
