Getting Great Deals For Used Games
Bethesda Softworks is just one of the many publishers shifting gears this fall in an effort to refocus
their efforts on the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 and with that comes a slew of changes. Because of
this, we thought it would be appropriate to chat with Pete Hines, Vice President of Marketing and
PR about some of the challenges his team is now facing heading into this Fall.
Yeah honestly [we felt the pressure.] Oblivion had done well and had obviously been big enough to
launch our venture because that was all that was out at first. When we saw the sales numbers of
Skyrim racking up, we thought 'wow this is so popular.' I think that was the most striking thing, was
how many people potentially want or are interested in the game we are making and the expectations
they have for our game.
"Killzone: Shadow Fall", the exclusive first-person shooter for the PlayStation 4, is reportedly
tracking ahead of exclusive launch titles found on the xbox one.
Naughty Dog's Arne Meyer was responding to questions from fans on the NeoGAF video game
forums when a user asked if there are any plans to release "The Last of Us" on playstation 4.
The console will hit retail in 13 major territories -- including North America and the U.K. on that
date. Thankfully, that date is microsoft xbox 360 week before Black Friday, which occurs on Nov. 29
this year. That means that the trampling of Xbox fans will be kept to a minimum.
I don't know many people who didn't play Mario Kart a few times as a kid. If your girlfriend liked to
play game collection when she was younger, buy her Mario Kart Wii. Not only will it take her back to
her youth, she will have a great time with the new version of the game. Buy two controllers if you
want to race her, but don't pout if she wins.
With the social aspect, and the whole connectivity of how other people are involved in my game,
even if it's a single player game, there are ways to inject them into the experience. If you've seen
where gaming is headed as a whole, it's been those social kinds of things. Now, watching someone
else play on say Twitch is a real way for people to learn how to play a game. That's an actual thing
now. Those types of aspects of the industry are pervading gaming in general more and more. I think
next-generation consoles are trying to embrace that. The share experienced with people in your
game, whether it's multiplayer or single player, there's a lot more going on and it's touching a lot of
other ways in which people live now.
There are a variety of variables with retailers and the deals they offer which you can check out here
but sony playstation one certainty is that the next-gen upgrade must be made by March.
