Uh huh We'll see,
there's a massive difference between things like thunderbolts, brave new world, fantastic 4 etc to avengers with Downey jnr, Chris Evans, Hemsworth , guardians, Deadpool, wolverine, spiderman and then a whole bunch other nostalgia cameos

If you don't think that makes big money then fair enough but I think you'll find it's incredibly unlikely that film doesn't make a billion.
It's as wishful as thinking another boring avatar film will make less than a billion

Re: Konami 'Forgiven' for Dropping Metal Gear Solid Voice Lead in Fifth Game

@Broosh

That would work if big boss didn't appear in the game.
But he does and is voiced by Sutherland In ground zeroes, just as he is wen he appears in phantom pain.
So it's not all venom snake , who again needed to SOUND big boss anyway for the con to work.

Canon wise you just have to assume his voice changed as he got older, since it's not hayters voice in MGS4 either.

Re: Microsoft Reiterates It's the Top Publisher on PS5 in Earnings Call

@Ricky-Spanish

Yeah They obviously are important or Nintendo and Sony wouldn't bother. Only reason Microsoft are doing this is because they're bleeding money .
Sony will happily do multi format service games for all as would Nintendo of thru made them.

U think Mario kart or Pokemon would have the same ip value to Nintendo if they were readily available on all formats?
Do you think switch would be as in demand if all the games were on PC and steam Deck

In short no

Re: Death Stranding 2 Is Causing Some PS5s to Overheat

Anthony_Daniels

As mentioned it's nothing to with the current temp. Ps5s work just fine in Japan or California which is way hotter on average than the UK.
It's that kojima haven't handled their pause screen very well leaving the frame uncapped.
Witcher 3 on PlayStation 4 base had the exact same issue

Re: Poll: How Do You Feel About The Last of Us Part 2, 5 Years Later?

Replayed it after the garbage part 2 tv adaptation finished.
It remains one of the greatest games I've ever played.

The combat is pure Egyptian cotton. Such silky varied gunplay, setting traps, Melee, stealth and cunning.
The acting from baker, Johnson and Bailey is exceptional. The story remains compelling and grim, the traversal is simple but fun as well as the crafting.
And of course the sound and visuals are tier 1.
Masterpiece

Re: Rumour: Sony Wants Warner Bros' Gaming Assets, Like Mortal Kombat

Anthony_Daniels

It's probably half true, Sony were dead set on owning paramount pictures. But just the good bits and not paramount plus. And then again with kadakowa
They seem to be in the market purchase a portfolio of pre existing film and/or tv ip

People purely looking at the video game angle again like fromsoft. Game studios like rocksteady just a mere bonus, they would want the IP of HBO . Not sure I envision Warner selling that anymore than Sony would sell Spider-Man, the boys, last of us or Ghostbusters

Re: TV Show Review: The Last Of Us (HBO) Season 2 Episode 7 - Great Game Makes for Okay TV

The adaptation of part 2 isn't working for me.
They've made a dogs dinner of the story. What was the point of Ellie Washing up on scar Island just for them to let her go? Pointless exercise in plot armor .
On Ellie I don't buy her quest for revenge at all, she's jokey, smiley, opposed to in the game we're she's always withdrawn, rage filled and in pain.
You've got dumb scenes like Ellie explaining to dina/the audience nice and slowly that Joel killed the fireflies because they were gonna make a cure from a dead Ellie and that the head Dr was Abbys dad, hence she's upset and wants her revenge . Awful spoon-feeding
They've already gone killed Abby season 3 story by laying out her plot through forced dialogue so no surprises their. Also would it have killed the actress to do some curls. No actress is getting as big as Abby but at least look lean as it's a bit of visual storytelling in the game that she turned her body into a weapon which pays of at the end when she's let go of her vengeance and it's reflected in her loss of muscle .

Having the Joel porch scene so early is also gonna rob the end of its impact. Not to big on how Ellie found out and forgave him all in one night either
Suppose I could go on but I'll just say 5 out of 10
Now I know how fire and ice readers felt watching season 5
