10 Upcoming Video Games That Deserve Way More Hype
It's not all about Star Wars Battlefront and Fallout 4, y'know.
The tail-end of the year is steadily approaching once again, and that can only mean one thing if you're a gamer. Wallets will start suffering from 'money-loss' syndrome and sacrifices will have to be made in regards to categorising each new release into the 'must-buy' and 'will have to wait until later' piles. Unless you're rich, then you can go nuts. For us working-class people though, the decision to buy depends on a whole host of different external forces. Previews, gameplay videos, impression pieces and advertising will all subconsciously help us to make the decision to part with some cash or hold onto it for the next big release. In an industry that's still growing at an absurdly fast rate, quality games are becoming more and more frequent (and expensive), to the point that finding the time to play them all (let alone buy them), is a task in itself. Sacrifices must be made on both sides; consumers will spend their cash sparingly, and the huge studios responsible for the Fallout 4's and Star Wars Battlefront's of the world will put their financial clout behind the biggest names in the industry at the expense of others. Is the noise for these games simply being drowned out over the sounds of other big names or are publishers simply not doing enough to get the public excited for them? You can decide that for yourself, but either way, these all deserve your attention...
