@Bentleyma Another big Control fan here. I agree that it’s probably the best showcase of PS5 capabilities that I’ve played so far, along with Returnal and maybe Rift Apart. Well, and maybe Astro’s Playroom.
Like you, I chose to stay with the fidelity mode because the ray tracing was so scrumptious and I was still accustomed to 30 fps at the time. Since then, I’m getting more and more spoiled by higher frame rate, but still think the RT was worth the sacrifice in Control. Really loved that game.

@Thrillho@KilloWertz The game has really hooked me in so looking forward to playing more.
I've gone with a street kid, I don't know how the other roles start but it felt almost perfect to fit with the story, I'll be giving it a second run with a female nomad V next time though.
@KilloWertz@MaulTsir I went with a female V for the second run. I thought the prologues were quite clever, particularly how they introduce Jackie in different ways. The unique conversation options for each “origin” is a nice touch too.
Finally got around to playing Ghost of Tsushima Directors cut on PS5. I forgot how good this game is and how many worthwhile activities there are to do. When I started Act II and went directly to Iki Island and played the entire thing over the weekend. While some of the story beats made me wish I had done this after the end credits of the main game, it was still nice to see Jin get some closure. Plus the Sarugami Armor with the right charms is OP. I chose not to import my PS4 save and just play fresh and I have seen so many things I forgot happened during my first playthrough. What a great game.
Got Sonic Frontiers today and played for a good 3 hours or so and have had a great time with it. It's a lot of fun just blasting around as Sonic with little interruption now that hes finallygot the room to stretch his legs, I don't think the pop in is as bad as some have made it out to be and even the story is pretty good. Certainly the most fun I've had with a 3D Sonic for some time
Older than I care to remember but have been gaming since owning a wooden Atari 2600 and played pretty much everything inbetween.
@RogerRoger Oh well, there goes any credibility RogerRoger has. Time to put him on ignore since he's obviously just a fanboy that would play any Sonic game.
Seriously though, I do plan on playing it someday. I used to be a big Sonic fan, which is why I never bothered getting any Nintendo system after the original NES. I have played a minimal amount of Sonic games since the Genesis though. Maybe by the time I'm ready to play it, which will be sometime deep into next year, it will be more polished and obviously much cheaper.

@RogerRoger When I read the very positive review the other day I was really happy. Not because I have any plans to ever play the game for myself, but I was so happy for you because I know how important the franchise is to you. I’m thrilled you agree with the accolades the game is getting. Maybe this will be another special case where we get a RogerRoger exclusive review on the review thread.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
@Thrillho Most definitely exceeding, although that's probably because I set myself at a comfortable mid-range, just in case. Even if I were in full Fanboy Mode, though, I reckon I'd be happy!
Hope you enjoy revisiting the previous God of War. When do you plan on getting the new one?
When they patch in photo mode of course
I replayed HZD earlier in the year but still haven’t got to the sequel. That said, I’m more likely to play Ragnarok soon but will have a shortish game between the two.
On Topic, I'm finally starting Ragnarok today after some delays...hopefully will still have the story beat at least by the time Callisto Protocol releases on December 2nd.
@Kairu In a perfect world we wouldn't need to work at all.
I'd rather watch anime/cartoons, TV shows, and movies all day everyday while squeezing in time for gaming, manga, comics, and real books/novels.
@KidBoruto That’d be amazing, wouldn’t it? No more work?!
I feel the same though. I’d love to be able to sit and watch anime and/or play video games all day without needing to worry about work or other responsibilities I have. Oh, to be a kid again…
Why do you think my username and avatar are the way they are? I embrace my inner child very openly.
In all seriousness though, being a kid kinda sucked too. We had less say/control in what we could do, and alot of homework depending on the grade/age.
@RogerRoger Of course. You are considered one of the best reviewers by a handful of people. If you had an account, your work is so popular you have roughly 10 followers on Twitter.
That's good to know that Sonic Frontiers is actually more polished than I thought for some reason. I will still wait though as I have no idea when I'd play it anyways with so many other games out or coming in the next several months.
