Wasn’t that basically True Crime: Hong Kong (or whatever city it was in)? :jbhmm:

True Crime was a dope series in general, that was wild how they were able to make them so much like NY and LA in the early and mid 00s on a system 3 gens ago :ehh:

Me personally it would have to be MUA. Not sure if it “flopped” but if it woulda did better we would have more of them. We should have at least like 7 by now. Seem like MUA 3 flopped otherwise we’d have at least 5 (2 more for Switch) :stopitslime:
Yeah... It was the True Crime: LA spinoff. If I remember correctly, the cop in True Crime was a detective outright and everybody knew it. In Sleeping Dogs, the character was undercover.

There could potentially be a fifth Just Cause game but we only got two games outta this series? :dahell:

Sleeping Dogs: My favorite game of all time. Love the story. Love the fighting. Just love the game. But like the OP mentioned Square Enix, and by proxy UFG just caught some real bad breaks. :francis:
I want sleeping dogs 2 more than gta vi

Which will inevitably disappoint due to rockstar's greed and loss of longtime talent

Whereas a series with potential to be further improved will sit on the shelf :francis:

Can't find any decent gameplay clips without youtubers talkin all up in the video :comeon:



This was going to be my pick along with Too Human. Surprised to see someone post about Phantom Dust.

Not necessarily considering it took 10 years for us to get MUA3. And MUA3 would have did better if wasn't a Switch exclusive(though it probably doesn't get made).

The night snow driving gave me flashbacks of living in Michigan. :wow:

I would pay for a Remastered PS5 version with 4K and 60 FPS. :wow:

a trio of Square Enix games: FF7 Rebirth, FF16 & Forspoken. I enjoyed all three immensely and wish they sold better. Square Enix was done dirty this generation by gamers :snoop: Rebirth is genuinely one of the best games released this generation and i'm not sure why it didn't take off. Forspoken I think was harmed by the anti-woke brigade online for daring to have a black female lead character :rudy: the combat and movement was amazing & unique tho. it's such a shame that game underperformed because a sequel building upon what they started in Forspoken 1 would be some mindblowing shyt if given the chance

I also really liked Anthem and the Avengers game. They were flawed (mostly due to lack of content) but combat was awesome in both of those games. I wish they didn't flop so we could've got more content for both and watch them flourish. it's a shame because both had real potential. The interceptor gameplay in Anthem is genuinely one of the GOAT third-person shooter experiences i've played in a game :gladbron:
The Avengers game was really good, and War For Wakanda was an amazing DLC. I'll say Suicide Squad was the biggest disappointment of 2024.

Mario Kart killed F Zero. I don't care what lie Nintendo has tried to tell over the years about it.
Yeah, absolutely. They don't want to cannibalize that player base. F-Zero 99 was such a different lane of the racing genre though. Everyone with a Nintendo Switch Online membership should go try it.
