bananaking21 said: so what games that are announced do you think will impact the indusrty the most? what will be the biggest "game changer". personally i think its Destiny, i have VERY high hopes for this game and i feel that i understood the vision that bungie tried to explain they had for the game. i feel it will not only change the FPS landscape but only the online multiplayer landscape as well. i also feel it will have a huge impact on shaping online gaming on consoles for the coming generation. i also see it bring singleplayer and multiplayer closer together, as in its starting to merge the two Another game that i think will have an impact is The Last of Us. i think it has a good chance to change character development and change story telling in video games. though i see the impact of this game to be less than the one destiny will have. im not saying these games will 100% change the indusrty, but im saying i think they might and have a good chance at doing so lets keep the thread about the games that are officially announced Edit - it would be really cool if people would explain why they think the games they mention will have an impact on the indusrty, thanks |
If you're talking about sales, Mario Kart 8. That game will make Wii U sales explode!
However I think you're talking about games that change the way people play games. Well, I can't think of anything, we're going to have to wait on a new IP for that. I can say, I disagree with you about Destiny, it might become popular, but I think it's going to recieve the same love/hate that many other MMO games have. World of Warcraft changed gaming, but we're not all playing that are we? I don't think Destiny will be any different then games like FFXI or Borderlands (which encourages online play). It will do alright, but it won't be anything like Halo.
The Last of Us would probably be the best bet, but it's not going to really change the indistry, not the way Resident Evil 4 did. It will be good, but I think that's all it's going to be. It's a twist on a popular genre (zombies, and undead, and stuff), made by a good developer, all I see it doing is filling in the footsteps left behind after Resident Evil 4.

Anyway, I have to vote something here right? I'm going to vote Super Smash Bros. 4. It's suppose to have a very different structure compared to previous Smash Bros games, and I think we're going to see a lot more 3rd party characters. I think Nintendo will let anyone who makes a Wii U exclusive, or even large scale MP title, will have a character in it. So Sonic, Rayman, Metal Gear, the main character in Mass Effect 4, Batman, etc.
WAIT!!! I'm in a dilema, someone else suggested Pokemon X/Y and I kinda agree. That franchise has been seeing smaller and smaller sales per game, and I think X/Y will change that. It looks like a proper 3D Pokemon game, and some of the new Pokemon don't look terrible (e.g. MewThree, and the starters). So I vote Pokemon X/Y and Super Smash Bros. 4
