Atari Disgraced On Twitter Due To The RollerCoaster Tycoon Announcement

Dennis

It´s a trend to boil up games of the good old days and it wouldn´t be bad but the ingredients are tasteless. Developers of today love it easy. They take one of their licenses, I mean the popular games, the brands with a very good reputation and create a remake based on that name. The only difference is that the old games were pretty awesome and the new ones often will be silly. I hope I did put it straight enough. Atari has a big fan base due to their RollerCoaster Tycoon titles from the past. Now, Atari announced that … Continue reading Atari Disgraced On Twitter Due To The RollerCoaster Tycoon Announcement

The Gaming Industry And The Wrong Direction

Dennis

Some of you know already that I really dislike the route that game developers go today. I mentioned it already a few times on my blog.

I try to hold a decent level on my blog but I also do not have problem to label crap things simply crap things. Today I will do that.

Sim City 5 Has Now An Offline Mode

Dennis

Sim City 5, one of the most hated games out there, has now an offline mode after all. If you remember Sim City 5, it´s the game with horrible small maps that are even smaller than the maps of the prequel. Also when Sim City 5 came out, many people were angry due to the fact that the game has been unstable like hell and because there were so many bugs. Another reason why people did complain a lot, was that the game was only playable online and the developers said that an offline mode wouldn´t be possible as the … Continue reading Sim City 5 Has Now An Offline Mode
