Gangster Vegas was good too until they decided to make it a lootbox cash grab game. Blitz Brigade, Gangster Rio and Miami were good games for their time, but aged terribly.

@Daniel__Nobre Місяць тому
It's the masses and the lowest common denominator approach. Games quickly reached the "casual" layers, meaning that they now reach billions of users. And it's just incredibly profitable to just do a quick low effort asset flip - sometimes even with stolen assets - than it is to actually try to produce a good game, that requires effort. The masses are mostly ignorant and easy to trick.

Glad I found this video. I've been playing and spending in Asphalt 9 for almost 2 years now. And let me tell you. It's the most greedy game I have ever experienced. Asking for anywhere from $100-$1,000 for a single car. You can't get 80% of the cars without either paying or farming premium currency for over a year for about 1-6 cars. Customer service is terrible and each platform has different unfair advantages. Xbox doesn't have ads so other platforms can watch a 30 second ad and get 20X the currency for a single race, while nintendo switch gets hundred's of dollars in value at a 90% discount since the platform is "behind". I honestly hope gameloft goes bankrupt, I can't smile any larger seeing that picture of Gameloft's profits sinking yearly.

B.I.A 2 was goated, I remembered a tip saying: "Combat never requires energy". Sad to say they did implement energy in the 3rd game

I uninstalled Gangstar Vegas when they forced ads whenever I go to map menu

I got a Tablet back then since i do not have access to PC to play WoW. I discovered Gameloft's Order and Chaos Probably the Best World of Warcraft Clone on Mobile. Sad to say the game is no more.

They were good during the low to mid range mobile era when the bar was low, now that almost every big game on mobile is basically a big budget cross-platform behemoth it's hard for guys like these who basically just re skin existing games for a living

gameloft was more oriented towrads offline singleplayer games, when the trend was getting over multiplayer games

Asphalt 9 is such a grind without in game transactions, Dragon Mania Legends is cool to play and my main go to, from them.

i am surprised you started from 3d gangstar. I started playing game loft games on java and Symbian phones. Asphalt 3 was one of my favourites

Yeah, we should have mentioned feature phones, genuine mistake from our side

Man, am I a fossil, my first Gameloft games were things like Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow, XIII, Mystery Mansion Pinball and Prince of Persia, I mean we're talking the dawn of mobile 2D Java games here. Good to see they are still doing fine.

Especially 6 Guns it was such a Masterpiece considering the Time of its Launch and Map and Graphics by thinking just a Mobile game.

im glad that despite gameloft loosing to vivaldi asphalt xtreme is still with us and has less microtransactions! as well as asphalt nitro which is honestly crazy

I think Disney speedstorm will be a great alternative for mario kart if they do it right

Their best games I've ever played have to be the Asphalt Series, anyone agrees? Man I miss the original Asphalt 8: Airborne

I had hoped you would discuss their Java and Symbian era games as well, though admittedly a bit too old haha

I remember playing nova legacy or something back then, i kept getting killed by this dude riding a car, whats even worse is that he keeps spamming "next"... i never knew that would be the last time i could see him. 😞

They could do OSX and Nintendo Switch ports without micro transactions ( aside to mobile game , focusing on market like iPhone and iPads that desperately need good games .)

I loved their games so much, it makes my inner child cry so much thinking about all the games they created that I played for hours on end
