Have we seen our first "next gen" game yet?

Lol Yea. Uncharted 4 has a strong focus on minor details that brings dead enviorments to life. Nearly everything on screen has an effect on Drake, for example dead A.I causes you to stumble. Bullets tear through walls or anything in it's pathway. Boxes are kicked out the way to make room for mobility. To make it short Unharted 4 is currently the PGR 3 of third person shooters. To argue my point further it does all this in a none linear enviorment with arguably the best graphics to date on a console.

"Non-linear" is a bit strong when it comes to Uncharted, I think...

This is bannable right? I mean, I've said some stupid stuff in my day but this...

I am upset right now.

"Neil: In the demo, essentially Nate’s moving at 60 mph, he’s under stress, as usual there’s people trying to kill him, so as a player your foot is always going to be on the gas. But we use the jeep in other ways, you can jump in and out and go exploring, and we’ve been able to open up the levels and let players drive great distances."

Yea we'll see how "stupid" it is when company's follow ND's approach to TPS's. Pretty soon it will be the standard.

;)
 
I haven't read through the thread yet but i imagine people are saying visually yes, Ryse and The Order. Gameplay wise, i don't know. Has anything really stood out as being a true advancement in gameplay? Will anything this gen? I always thought we'd reach a point where gameplay really wouldn't get all that much better. Sure the more fps you have the better it is. But what else is there?
Drivatars. They're underrated. I don't play racing games much. Drivatars make it a different experience for me. Seeing friend's cars as I'm driving is awesome.

Where's that link to the video of the boy in the VR headset being molested by a blow up doll?

I have no idea what that Gen is...

Yeah, i was going to say that's all i can really think of. Drivatars are an awesome feature. They make the experience that much better.
 
So playing Destiny on ps3 is next gen because of it's gameplay. :p
 
I don't think we are going to see anything with a landmark generational leap this time around. Console and game design have sort of plateaued.
 
What are we missing that we haven't been able to do gameplay wise for some to consider it as truly next gen? That is why many stick to graphical comparisons to show next gen. Ever since we were able to beat on hookers and steal their money we've pretty much covered everything or the most important things in life gameplay wise.

I wouldn't say that console design has level'd off, just designed to conservatively this gen. To have a really generational leap this gen would have been way to cost prohibitive, to the manufacturers and end consumer.

Right, lol. I wouldn't include any game that has a last gen version as being a true next gen experience. If it can be done in 10 year old hardware there's nothing really new there.

I wouldn't say that. I say it depends on how different they are. For instance Horizon 2 on 360 is very different than the X1 version. I don't know about titanfall, but I bet you could tell the difference simply in how it plays due to it being a twitch shooter and having twice the framerate.
 
Why hasn't Maxis incorporated Tindr into The Sims?! ULTIMATE DATING APP!...

Hmm... Or a pedophilic tool... Back to the drawing board.
 
Yup it and Titan Fall offer a leap over the last gen in gameplay.

So you are saying that Destiny and Titanfall PS3 and 360 versions are a leap over last gen games on last gen systems even though they are last gen games on last gen systems?

I think the OP is asking for something on this gens systems that couldn't be done on last gen systems. Clearly both of those games could be done on last gen systems (proof available if needed). :wink:

The type of gameplay they offer wasn't thought of last gen and both games were ported.
Any current gen game can be ported to the last gen.

I think we will in crackdown. If they pull off what they are advertising, that would be a true next Gen experience. IMO

If the premise of the question is a game that can't be done or can't be done without major sacrifices then they don't apply.
 
There is no fps game that plays like them.
