HandsomeDead Posted January 18, 2024 Share Posted January 18, 2024 Looks really Chronicles of Riddick: Escape From Butcher Bay like. I guess Tomb Raider is what I think of in this genre and it doesn't seem like that. Looks smaller scale. I hope the exploring and puzzles are a good standard, and it's important that whip feels good to use. If that's covered I can see me having a really good time with it. Also, Troy Baker is showing up again as Indy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nag Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 I hold no real affection for the Indy franchise but as it's a Game Pass entry I'll more than likely give it a whirl. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmmark Posted January 19, 2024 Author Share Posted January 19, 2024 As game titles go it’s pretty bad. The great circle is just asking to be mocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indiana Jones And The Great Circle Jerk. There. That’s the obvious one out of the way. This looks pretty promising. Shame it’s not coming to PlayStation.

HandsomeDead Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 From the trailer it's named after a circle linking a bunch of ancient monuments so I think it should be called something cool like Indiana Jones and the Link to the Past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryokutai Posted January 19, 2024 Share Posted January 19, 2024 It's actually just the thing you see Indy draw at some point in the trailer: Quote Wikipedia: In mathematics, a great circle or orthodrome is the circular intersection of a sphere and a plane passing through the sphere's center point. Or maybe everyone here knew that already, I had to look it up. Maybe the aliens from Indy 4 come back and cut the earth in half and you visit the core of the planet. Sounds reasonable enough.

DANGERMAN Posted January 21, 2024 Share Posted January 21, 2024 I'm catching up on the direct, and this does look good. Really I just want more Wolfenstein, so it's likely that my favourite bits are the bits where you're just murdering nazis. Unfortunately I don't see Indi dual wielding automatic shotguns, but it does look like the combat is still fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANGERMAN Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 Comes out on 9th December on Xbox and PC Game Pass PS5 Spring next year 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted August 20, 2024 Share Posted August 20, 2024 Going to spend some time reading xbox twitter for a bit 🍿 I was reading somewhere that Xbox have actually only got one exclusive out of buying Zenimax (which I guess is Starfield). At this point it can't be claimed that the whole xbox thing hasn't went tits up for them, none of this can be according to plan. If it is then it's a very stupid plan, although a funny one as well so I encourage it 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryokutai Posted August 21, 2024 Share Posted August 21, 2024 The irony of it all is that their most interesting and to an extent successful systems happened before the acquisition spree. It's a fine example of why throwing money at a problem doesn't always solve it. Though I'm not looking forward to a post power vacuum Sony to be honest. But I guess that's off-topic. I'm a bit surprised this is only exclusive for half a year, but at least that gives us a timeframe now for these things. Game still looks decent btw., it's a shame the drama seems to overshadow it completely at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is then it's a very stupid plan, although a funny one as well so I encourage it Always have to remember the first, big launch game for Xbox got delayed by a year. Out of the gate they released a system without the system seller. From the start they’ve just looked incompetent. It doesn’t surprise me the plans have changed so radically with fuck up after fuck up. Maybe Phil Spencer is a CEO and doesn’t care, but if I was him I’d be embarrassed having to concede on every plan and still end up in 3rd place. I kind of like Phil Spencer, he seems like good people, but how he still has a job I don’t know. But I can’t pretend I haven’t enjoyed the drama 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryokutai Posted August 21, 2024 Share Posted August 21, 2024 I don't think anything getting delayed in the year 2020 makes the people behind it incompetent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted August 22, 2024 Share Posted August 22, 2024 I don’t know why this is coming to PS5 but I’m bloody happy it is, can’t wait to give it a go next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryokutai Posted August 23, 2024 Share Posted August 23, 2024 The situation is so weird when you consider that Microsoft is publishing their own games on PS5 while Sony is paying third-parties to keep theirs off Xbox. Not saying MS is some videogame messiah or something, they wouldn't do this if they were the market leader. But it does make Sony look like a billion dollar brat.

DisturbedSwan Posted August 23, 2024 Share Posted August 23, 2024 I’m completely out the loop really on going’s on in the industry etc. I know Sea of Thieves, Hi Fi Rush and maybe Pentiment(?) came earlier this year but they were either old or smaller titles so it made some sense. A new AAA from a 1P studio coming 4-6 months after the Xbox release is pretty mad. Not complaining though, all good for me as I only have a PS5 nowadays. As someone very much looking from the outside in I struggle to understand the industry at the moment, I know Xbox loved a timed exclusive as well from time to time.

one-armed dwarf Posted August 24, 2024 Share Posted August 24, 2024 Guessing that when Starfield gets its last DLC expansion that will be when they announce it for PS5, along with a No Man's Sky style 'relaunch' with new features. They can't be happy with where that game landed so it'd be surprising if they didn't do this Will be more interesting to see what happens with things like Gears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
