Game Developers Should Wait
If I were a games developer, I would be thinking about the next generation of consoles and how we are
going to start making games for it. Now I know its a rough economy at the present time. But if you are a
successful games developer then I'm sure its not hitting you that hard. So why schedule games for
release next year like Rockstar are doing with GTA V ? when they probably know the Xbox '720' will be
releasing around the fall of 2013, I'm just baffled by this. It doesn't make sense. Unless Rockstar are just
being money greedy, which they could be.
Rockstar could already know something we don't about the new Xbox, maybe it will be backwards
compatible, so they will release GTA V on Xbox 360 then gamers being able to play it on Xbox 720? could
be something like that? what do you think ? I have read around a lot of websites that GTA V will be
releasing sometime around April of 2013? really? what is the point? 6 months after its release the new
Xbox will be emerging? just doesn't make any sense to me. If any of you have any light to shed please do
so below.
Now onto another game - Call Of Duty, the most popular video game in history. A new release comes
annualy, and ever since Call Of Duty 4 Modern Warfare the developers - Infinity Ward and Treyarch have
tried there very best to add innovations to the franchise. This year Treyarch will release the next Call Of
Duty, rumoured to be named - Black Ops 2. In my opinion this should be the last game made for the
current Xbox. Next November will be in the midst of the Xbox 720 release date, So Infinity Ward, who
are the popular developers, will have a great opportunity to create an absolute world beater of a game.
To be honest they are probably planning out how the game will work and play right now. The game is
great, but with every release its almost like the game is taking side ward steps and not forward or
backwards which isn't bad but the game isn't making ground unlike its rival battlefield 3- which is
looking brilliant, just imagine how it will look on the next generation. So maybe a new Console is just
what Call Of Duty needs to reinvent the excitement and fun of the franchise
