5 Games Missing Small Features that would make a World of Difference

1. Hotline Miami

Hotline Miami is an indie game that took the gaming world by storm. Many people praised its brutal combat and amazing OST. Since it did so well it was ported from the PC to Xbox 360, PS3 and PS Vita.


Unfortunately it was a one to one port. I say unfortunately because the controls weren't adapted at all when making the switch. The aiming suddenly turned from intuitive to frustrating.

What they need is to add a laser sight showing where Jacket is aiming.

Make crouching add the same accuracy as iron sights do, not all of us want to have two thirds of our screen covered in a gun. Iron sights have their place in games with realism, but Borderlands 2 is as far away from a realistic shooter as you can get.

The Y Axis.




5. Pokémon X and Y

Nintendo is creeping into the world of multiplayer. Slowly. They lack finesse and many features are antiquated like the friend code system, or the lack of an account system.


The new pokémon game shows some promise towards a better online system. With the introduction of rated battles, the ability to access online from anywhere and search filters it feels like gamefreak has outdone themselves.

Except they forgot about the online community called smogon, they have set rules in an attempt to balance battles further than the official tournaments. They aren't officially supported by gamefreak but I don't think they should ignore them either. 


All they need to do is add user made formats that allow for a set of custom rules.
