"Perfect Dark. Yeah, that sounds really, really cool."

"Great title, Dave. But what is going to be about?"

"We don't know yet, but let's trademark it and tell everyone about it, anyway."

:why:

Not really what I said but let's roll with it.

You still pining over dead IPs from 20 years ago. From a publisher. A publisher, not a developer. :scust:

Yeah, that was another lifetime ago, none of those people are still there.

Tomb raider had very good games very recently and crystal dynamics is the developer.

They’re generally known as a pretty good developer. Have survived decades when lots of other teams are long gone and have been successful as a support studio, I’m not sure what else to tell you. :manny:

All this to be mad and have some other excuse when the game drops at some point in the future.


Meanwhile you got a wolverine cg trailer in 2020 and the game is like 2-3 years out also :mjlol:

But hey that doesn't matter. Perfect dark though... :mad:

No they're good at making Tomb Raider games.

Here we go playing dumb again.

Insomniac is a known quality who actually delivers. And they're about to put out a brand new title later this year.

The Initiative were nothing but smoke and mirrors and hype. They never delivered a single game and they lost control of this one.

People are going to have a different understanding for a developer who constantly delivers vs one who couldn't even get their first game out the door.

You should be happy that a competent developer stepped in to clean up this mess. It will probably turn out better now.

There’s lots of games listed on that site :dwillhuh:
Were you trying to point out that CD is a good developer or that they just develop games?

Because e bringing up Project Snowblind and Whiplash ain't gonna help you.

M$ might be interested in in reviving those too though.

You can’t be a “bad developer” and still be around all these years.

They have a long history of really good games.

I feel this is the danger of marketing a game too early. If the game turns out good, then the mess will be forgotten, but if it's mid then this will be remembered. Microsoft got greedy and made a mistake in marketing this game too early because they should've waited when they knew the direction they were going. Anyways, I still have faith this game will score 80+MC and I still rate Crystal Dynamic.

trailer came out in 2020(3 years ago) and we have fukk all. ya, I can see why people are peeved(including me)

if the game wasn't ready for prime time it shouldn't have been promoted.

3 years into the console generation and the big things have been Forza Horizon 5 and Halo Infinite(Not doing a great job of dispelling the Halo/Forza/Gears jokes)


All eyes on Starfield(which I look forward to modding on Steam)
