Crow has been the on the menu at GamerSushi HQ this past week, as the demo and subsequent reviews of Resident Evil 6 shattered the hearts and broke the minds of your beloved GS staff. There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth, finger-pointing, accusations, allegations, recriminations and even a fight club. As the dust cleared and the fires finally faded, we were left with the acrid taste of disappointment that appears when an anticipated game turns out to be a letdown.
Which got me thinking about the future and the next time that this travesty will occur. So I ask you, dear readers, what Triple-A title will be the next to smash the hopes of millions of gamers? Generally, I am thinking of games from established franchises when I ask this, such as Assassin’s Creed 3? Doubtful. Ubisoft has shown a remarkable consistency, which is an achievement considering it has become an annual release. Bioshock Infinite? The delays may be disturbing, but it does point to a concerted effort to get things right. Personally, I don’t know. Some think it might be Halo 4. I certainly hope not, but there is a lot riding on that one, so it could be the one.
What say you? What future game from an existing franchise will be the next Resident Evil 6? GO!
After playing the MP and seeing a lot of the making of’s, I am pretty certain Halo 4 will be outstanding. However, although it looks really cool, I’m worried Dead Space 3 might fall on its face. Only time will tell.
I think “The next resident evil” is too broad of a statement. Its not fair to say that Re6 was a let down because, I personally got nothing but joy from the game. But as far as what games might do poorly, I agree. Dead Space 3, the whole co-op thing looks a little weird.
