Ubisoft's content director, Julian Geright, has claimed that the upcoming Tom Clancy: EndWar game will change the way people will make games on consoles.
"This is the first game of its type and I don't think that games on console will be made the same after Endwar," he said in to CVG. "It's kind of boastful, but I really do think that this is a watershed type of game."
EndWar is a real-time strategy game made specifically for the PS3 and Xbox 360. When asked about other RTS games that have been ported to console platforms, Geright said: "I hate saying bad things about other peoples games, but when EA ships Battle for Middle Earth on PC and then goes 'okay, that's going to take a team of forty/fifty six months to get it out on 360'.
"They can do a really great job in terms of UI, they can great job in mapping the controls and making it accessible, but it remains a PC game. The difference in PC games and console games is huge, even in first person shooters. Think of before GoldenEye - people didn't play first person shooters on console. It wasn't that fun."
they were saying that about assassin's creed and it turned into biggest disappointment ever
I thought of AC as soon as I saw the article title containing "Ubi"
AC and Haze are very similar in some ways, hyped, disappointed, but if you play through them marginally enjoyable for the first few hours and alltogether average games
The trailer didnt look that great tbh, i'll wait till i play it myself before i agree with any of their "its going to be a watershed game" claims...
It really does annoy me when developers/publishers spout on and on about how their game is going to be a benchmark and change gaming... like.. forever.
And when the game actually comes out these games rarely are the great masterpieces they have been hyped upped to be.
Maybe this will be one of the greatest game ever created but until we play it i reckon they should just shut up and make the game then let the critics and all us gamers decide how good the game actually is.
