The following game features:
100+ hours of gameplay
Dynamic interactive environments
HD 1080p VR-supported 3D Enabled Graphics
Dolby 7.1 Surround Sound Audio
Branching Non-linear Storylines
Huge 30 Square Mile Map
Infinite Character Customization (no really...)
10 Weapon types with 200+ different... you know what I just got bored.
So I was just thinking about this, you often see games reduced down to numbers as a simple marketing strategy, and I'm not one to criticize this practice outright because I've probably bought tons of games sold to me on the list of features it had that I actually really ended up enjoying quite a bit. After all it's probably the most effective way to attempt to market a game just off the back of the box.
Now obviously I wouldn't expect a List of Features alone to sell most games, but a lot of times it can be the tipping point in deciding. If you go into a game store (sadly becoming an obsolete trend) with enough money for 1 game, you want the one that gives you the most bang for your buck, what's it gonna be?
So I wanted to ask the community, what Features really grab your eye when you look at the back of that box? What are the guilty pleasures that will at least make your wallet go "This one is a contender"?
