ITT: Games that lived up to your hype.

>>333104028
And yet Bloodborne was a better game.
>>333104028
Need to update that as it's now at 253.
>>333104028
I have 220 reasons it isnt.
Battlefield 3
Halo 3
Bioshock 2
Blops 2
DaS2 (first souls game)
Batman Arkham City
TFTB

Creative Assembly really outdid themselves with this game. From watching the previews you could tell it was going to be a great but the final product exceeded my expectations. They nailed the atmosphere and the xenomorphs perfectly. I highly doubt there will ever be another Alien game of comparable quality. Sure, it not perfect but its easily the best 2014 game, imo.
Maybe... wind waker? Hmmmm and Mother 3.
>>333104828
Forgot that one. Loved it all the way through
>>333104084
based on what criteria, your opinion?
>>333105018
Duh
>>333105018
Based on fact.
>>333104028
>fallout 4 above bloodborne
these awards mean nothing
>>333105212
>>333105294
>being this idiotic
Enjoy your chromatic aberration infested turd, kids.
>>333105642
Someone sounds salty
>>333105294
Based on fact bloodboner is crap. low sales, bad preformance, no awards.
You have shit taste, deal with it.
>>333104028
bethbr-bros, here he is, here is he, bullying and mocking us again
b-b-but he is right, Bethesda has failed
Fallout 4 just wasn't as good.. we have to admit it, there is no doubt
I-I think this may over... for us, for everything... I am not sure Todd can bring us back from this... can he? He is just so... small... Iwinski is 6'1 and Todd isn't even 5'7
Ma-maybe we should've just shilled harder. Yes, that may be it. Maybe it was us who have failed. We have failed Todd, after everything he gave us. He counted on us... for nothing.
I-I can't... can't hold the pain any longer... I see lights now...
>>333106173
Call of Duty has all the metrics your looking for.
Good performance, amazing sales, high reviews, tons of awards.
>>333104084
It was great but I liked Witcher 3 more.partly because I can actually play the latter at a good framerate.
That, and I'm a sucker for ornate, but reasonable european longswords and W3 scratched that itch like crazy.
>>333103404
I re-play it every few years. It is still one of my favorite games of all time.
>>333106146
Someone sounds delusional.
I liked BB, still, when someone says that it's a better game the W3, based on facts, i can't help but scratch my head a little.
>>333106731
What facts are those?
>>333105294
Enjoy your great game fagboy, I'll be busy sitting here playing another great game in TW3
Haha jokes on you fag, we're both playing games we like
>>333108085
>Another dumb anon
The wording of the post you are quoting may sound weird, but if you had learned to read , you'd know that the post in question is quoting this other post:
>>333105294
>>333103404
>>333103736
These are the only two games I can think of that have lived up my hype.
>>333103736
based
Dark Souls 1
>>333106318
I like FO4 more than NV because fuck the desert and that shitty linearity they force you to take.
>>333106731
>idiots
>delusional
I can taste the salt two guys liking a game sure is getting ya heated
>>333103404
True this
>>333103404
>>333104028
had the only decent april fools joke this year as well

also, post mods
kind of off topic; anyone have recommendations for either a lossless screenshot utility and/or an image hosting site that isn't imgur?
>>333112053
is that B&W footage at the end? looks like an upgraded bear armor
>>333111024
the SINGLE PLAYER lived the hype
then Rockstar forgot it exists and they fucked up the game with all the GTA:O exclusive content
>>333105018
Well, let's see
> Clunky combat
> Really bad animations
> Piss-poor voice acting
> An open world with lots of repetitive side-quests that just gets boring
vs.
> Tight combat controls
> Proper animations and voice acting for story
> Everything in the game world has a purpose
I'd say Bloodborne is the better game. I enjoyed TW3, but it has some glaring flaws in it.
>>333112581
>> Really bad animations
>> Piss-poor voice acting
>> repetitive side-quests
>implying not everything in TW3 has a purpose
>implying there's anything impressive about Bloodbornes animations or voice acting
GTA V
S.O.M.A

>Friendly hud
>HD reworked project
>>333106364
You be salty but the truth is good games get awards and praises. You don't have to liek that game but there's a clear differance between something good and bad.
IF bloodborne was good then it would of had the scores, sales and awards to prove it. It doesn't.
>>333113349
Same here and i played it on fucking last gen. I guess some people just hate fun...
>>333111931
>still being this idiotic
Surely you can't be this dumb on purpose.
The fact that 2 guys like a game, that i happen to like too, isn't getting me salty or heated.
What bothers me is that these 2 guys are being petulant and dismissive toward another game i like, when asked what makes BB better than W3.
Now this:>>333112581
is a better post, that doesn't bother me, for the opposite reason i called out the earlier posts, even if it's critizing W3.
And if insults, on a chinese cartoons board, bother you, maybe this isn't the place for you.
>>333112826
It's not that BB is impressive, it's just that TW3 looks like a game from 2007 when it comes to animations.
The devs were too ambitious with scope. The game would be more interesting and polished if they didn't have so many 'go hear and blow up the monster nest' quests.
Yeah I said it.
>>333114942
>TW3 looks like a game from 2007 when it comes to animations.
that's not true and you know it
it has really impressive animations for conversations. especially facially. dear lord its basically as good as it gets apart from la noire.
It's love or hate but I found myself in the former camp.
>>333115112
I had zero hype when I first played that. I just knew that it featured that green faggot from Smash so I guess I should give it a try. Without a doubt the most pleasant "blind pick" I ever made as a kid.
Skyrim
>>333115729
lot of fun experience playing it with my friends while hopped up on fruit loops and go gurts.
Arkham Knight is better than the Witcher 3 in literally everyway
Gameplay
Witcher 3:
>either engaging in boring dialogue with a whopping 2-3 options to choose from that vary from Chaotic Yes, Neutral Yes and Maybe later
>or engaging in repetitive combat that always feels the exact same and is easy as shit because you can literally broke 99% of the attacks in this game with zero consequence
Batman Arkham Knight:
>Batmobile segments to break up the other forms of combat
>Melee based combat with numerous factors involved such as the managing of healers who revive downed enemies, need to avoid attacking shockers from the front while managing the larger enemies
>Stealth based gameplay that can be mixed up with the batmobile, melee combat or pure stealth
Graphics:
Arkham Knight:
>best looking open world game ever made
Witcher 3:
>downgraded trash worse than GTA V
Setting:
Witcher 3:
>Generic tolkien fantasy #12442
Arkham Knight
>completely original setting that isn't too large nor too small and has a perfect blend of verticality, streets and interiors
Story
Witcher 3:
>NEED TO GET MUH DAUGHTER WHO IS IN ANOTHER CASTLE ALL THE TIEM
Arkham Knight
>An inner struggle with Bruce Wayne coming to the realization that he might need to kill himself figuratively speaking. He feels that he is no longer as feared as he used to be and needs to become darker and more ruthless if Gotham can ever be safe. The story inflicts countless mind games, trickery and fantastic foreshadowing and while the twist was predictable at least it wasn't like Witcher 3 which was predictable in its entirety
>>333116021
Skyrim is the Shawshank Redemption basically. Praised by normies but panned by neckbears.
>>333116021
>>333116625
He's going all out
>>333116625
>>333103404
In recent memory? Only TW3
No regrets.
>>333111174
>2016
>Same graphics and same horrible engine from Skyrim.
What a game amirite?
>>333104028
I'm glad Life is Strange is on there.
>>333117115
Go be 12 somewhere else
>>333117041
I'd like to add Bloodborne and Dragon's Dogma. Also, I loved Div:OS without being previously hyped for them and the Enhanced Edition fixed all the little pet peeves I had.
>>333117115
I just felt nothing when I beat the game first time, pacifist. The humor never did it for me and the characters were pretty meh.
>>333116625
this is why im happy I have batman filtered on all boards
>>333117115
Decent game.
A fanbase that somehow manages to put the faggotry of mobas and ERPers to shame.Still listen to the OST.
>>333105642
FUCK YOU NIGGER AND FUCK THAT DAWG.
>>333114942
>monster nest quests
these arent quests anon. just random shit on the map you can do.
the actual side quests are second to none regarding quality and thought input compared to other games.
>>333117929
>the actual side quests are second to none regarding quality and thought input compared to other games.
>follow red shit as Geralt mumbles to himself like an autist
>talk to guy
Come back when it matches Skyrim in quest design, let alone Oblivion/VtMB/Deus Ex etc

This. For someone who is far more into the singleplayer side of things, it was really disappointing that Rockstar put ALL of their focus on the multiplayer and we didn't get the same amazing DLC treatment that GTAIV got.
>>333103404
I don't hype after any game. I have my fair share of discoveries on Steam, 4chan and Internet blogs and forums. In addition, there's a bunch of autistic eternal titles that keep me entertained until any game gets released.
I've mastered the expectations' zen
