| Zisbest said: impossible. Everything's been said. Take for example Ocarina of time, which is often seen as the 'best' game ever created. Well, back then it MIGHT have been the best game, but every other game releasing the next gen, or last gen, or this gen, practically outshines it in almost all means possible. For example: Graphically talking Twilight princess was better. Story telling goes to the Uncharted Series or The Last of Us for instance. BUT in 15 years, even those masterpieces will look outdated compared to games, that are releasing then. So it's pretty much impossible to get 'the perfect' game. |
I disagree with this to a point. I agree that graphics will always move forward......until we reach photorealism. There 100's of better storytelling games than UC/TLOU that have come out in years before these games came out. To this day certain generes have hit a wall. The FPS in large hasent changed in 10 years. Little adjustments like RPG elements, large multiplayer and even changing the generes objective(Portal and its ilk) are all we have seen since the first full 3D FPS. We will hit the wall with TPS and every other genre in respect to gameplay. Even this past gen was full of tired revisits to generes of generations past, no better than what was happening during the PS2 era, with prettier graphics.
OT:We wont see a widly agreed upon best game ever; ever.
Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.
Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.
