Current Events > Do AAA devs still make fun, colorful games? Or is it still gritty dark games?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm talking about things that are lighthearted like the sly cooper games, or Mario but you know on ps4, since I don't want to buy a wii u or switch u.

Like I don't want shooters or games like bloodborne and darker souls, I just want something fun.

Ratchet and Clank reboot is really good.

Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare

It's a shooter but it's very colorful and a fun game.

Wait they... remade the original ps2 ratchet and clank?

Holy crap it's been 15 years since the original r&c... I feel so decrepitly old.

Watchdogs 2 was bright
FFXV was bright

I don't understand how darker themes make a game not fun but okay

We're 3.5 years into the gen so I just wanted to know.

Tell me more about this 2016 ratchet and clank game. I like the series and dont mind the sameyness if the humor is strong, it's literally the only reason why I'd play what is essentially a shooter (but a fun kind with zany weapons and auto-aim. Plus I usually just use the wrench or a whip type weapon instead of gun weapons)

Outside of the few changes to the story it's very similar to the first game, but a lot easier and more refined because they updated some of the old mechanics.

It's less than $20, so it's definitely worth checking out. It came out right before Uncharted 4 so a lot of people forgot about it.

Oh cool thanks!

Wikipedia called it a "reimagining" ... I'd like to see how they reimagined quark, since he was pretty much an ass in the original ps2 trilogy and it was only the future series on ps3 that made him likable/funny.

The humor in it is good and it has the best gameplay in the series. But I think that it has own of the weakest stories in the series. They had to change elements of the original story because the game had to tie in with the movie.

It's too bad they never made another sly after sly 4. I actually liked it, weird twist aside.
