Re: 'It's Selling Like Hot Cakes': Hokkaido Goes Crazy for Ghost of Yotei on PS5

@Hapless I still call it Twitter. Hell, I still call the Washington football team by the old name. I am who I am lol.

On topic: Love to see Yōtei doing numbers. Gives me a good laugh at the clowns in the user review section of Metacritic. And that one reviewer at Eurogamer who gave it a 6/10. Really?! A 6! I think that’s close the worst score I’d give a game. I’ve never played anything less than a 5/10.

@Zuljaras I believe I’ve played a few recently. Flintlock is a great one. So is Inoria. But I think something that’s had a real negative effect on gaming is the rating/review system. Now people wait to see what the “pros” have to say before they try a game.

Remember, Faxanadu didn’t have some reviewer telling you to not play it. You tried it and loved it. That’s how we did it back then. Now, people will anticipate a game, then when it gets a 7/10 they don’t wanna play it anymore. That sucks!

@Zuljaras wow! Faxanadu! I was just telling my wife about how much i love that game! Haven’t played it in 30 years! Such a great game that’s way ahead of its time!

As for me. I’m still in the throes of Ghost of Tsushima. About 67% complete and trying to git’r done so I can move on to Yōtei. And of course, Elder Scrolls Online! ✌🏾

Re: 'Told You So': Ex-FTC Chair Lina Khan Is Having the Last Laugh Over Xbox's Activision Acquisition

@DennisReynolds for some weird reason there are people who are fans of companies and corporations. Like, some people would call me a Sony fan. I’m no Sony fan! I’m a PlayStation fan! It’s probably the only Sony thing I’ve ever owned.

But some people are Microsoft fans and they saw the acquisition as a good thing because they love the company so much. It’s a weird notion. Like, how can you love a company that sells you everything and gives you nothing free? I don’t know…

Wasn’t only her. Many here in these very threads said this would happen! Hell, this has been one of my main criticisms of GamePass since its inception.

I would be amazed how the same people who’d say “Sony is greed and their greed is anti-consumer!” would also be the ones who’d praise MS for GamePass and MS’s business practices. Shortsighted as if they live in fog as thick as a well-made bowl of pea soup!

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Ghost of Yotei?

AhmadSumadi

Currently playing Ghost of Tsushima and absolutely loving it! Plan to get Yotei soon. Was gonna buy it last night but got Dragon’s Dogma 2 and Echoes of the End for the same price as Yotei. Couldn’t pass that up!

@SeaDaVie absolutely! But you had me in the first half, not gon’ lie.

Unfortunately though, there are quite a few serious posts about exactly what you joked about. And not even just that it’s not Jin. Just that it’s a woman in general.

Saw one comment that said it ruins immersion to see a woman dispatch armies of men by herself. I’m like “Yeah. Because it’s so realistic when a man is killing armies of men by himself.” 😆

Re: PlayStation's New 'Rewards' Program Goes Down Like a Lead Balloon

AhmadSumadi

@SODGA85 I earned plenty of credit from my ESO+ subscription and playing certain games. The last thing I did with Stars before they ended it was buy Everybody’s Golf: Hot Shots. Bought a full game with only credit from doing certain things and credits from a subscription for another game. That’s how rewards are supposed to work!

Re: Who Is Playing Wolverine in Insomniac's PS5 Game?

AhmadSumadi

@Damage99 Heath Leger could’ve been this for Joker had he gotten a chance to do more films. Chadwick Boseman was great as T’Challa but I feel like since he only did 1 film that they should recast the character. I get it though with Jackman though. He did Logan for 2 decades. Hard to change after that.

Re: Ghost of Yotei (PS5) - The Greatest Sucker Punch Game Ever

AhmadSumadi

I hadn’t played Ghost of Tsushima till I started it about a month ago. Playing it right now actually. It’s an amazing game so far! I’ve not watched a single trailer of Yotei just so it’s all new to me when I start playing it.

Honestly, even if it were a 7/10 I’d still play it because I’ve not had any reason to distrust Sucker Punch. Glad to see it’ll be another great outing.

Re: First Wolverine PS5 Gameplay Is Incredibly Gory, Set for Fall 2026

Perspective is a funny thing, isn’t it? Here, you have some who aren’t impressed by this because it looks too much like Spider-Man. Contrasted by those who are in awe of this because it’s very much not like Spider-Man lol. This is why I seem the term “expert” to be the most useless word in existence. It’s all about perspective.
