I actually was worried the moment I saw and heard Jimbo talk, he didn't seem convincing when saying 'this is what you all've been waiting for'. Yeah right, that cat game for one ...
It was poor. Everyone else above who feel the same have mentioned all there is to say about it.
And surely someone at Push square soon have to write an article about the Elephant in the room; Factions! Where the heck is this game after all this time?(And ND as a whole. Where are their games?) And all other big games I thought would be coming to PS5 when I bought it almost two years ago ...
@AaronBayne What is the length of this campaign? Is there different difficult settings? Is there any replay value (for trophies maybe)? What about the use of dual sense? Thanks
@Northern_munkey COD is not dead, but it has become a mess, and we who have been playing it from the beginning i 2003, is just flabbergasted by it all. I think UBI here tries to take a few steps back and 'make COD great again' but in another skin and game. One former producer of COD (Mark Rubin) is working on this. I'll be checking this out for sure. COD is IMO become so stale and messy now that nothing of it feels satisfying anymore, even the Prestige mode which started that train, they have now managed to F* up.
@NeThZOR Lucky you! I got all the Ravens long before finishing the story. But now I've given up on the last boss fights: Gna and Hrolf. I got all the best loadouts but it seems impossible to beat those two not matter what ...
@Rob_230 I agree with you. And I see you and others here now have an argument with the same guy I just had to block a few days back after myself also being moderated on here due to only putting this dude straight on this same topic.
@Friendly Now now, if you're old enough, you can probably remember MS having a certain exclusivity contract with R* and GTA games back in the 360 era, no? Also I think it was the same for COD and the 360, just sayin.
Yes, they did the right move for sure. But, (I may be in a minority here and this is just my opinion) but I enjoyed both the exploration, gameplay and story, better in GOW 2018, than this one.
I'm only 10 hours in, so it's an 8, but this could change when I'm done. So far its' been extremely on rail and after spending 100 hours in Valhalla recently, it seems so weird not being able to access more of the lovely areas in this game. Surely a big man like Kratos should be able to climb up and drop down small ledges, but for the most part so far, no. Also the RPG systems as noted in the review should at least hold this title back at a 9.5 imo.
@middyone way to talk, as if you know me. I was in mourning at the time actually. The game (HFW)was boring to me but an easy Platinum, so I went for it since I bought the game. The first one I got free on PS+ and platinumed it sitting at home with a broken ankle at the time. Try again, smart ass! Or not …
@middyone what are you talking about…? I hope this isn’t an insult, Boy!? Oh, and I’m free to think Horizon is boring, both of them actually! Still platted both.
Looking great! I can afford it. But the wife would not like it standing on a shelf or table in the livingroom. And in my man cave it wouldn’t get as much attention as it should😊
@SplooshDmg Really? The 'story' in GTAV is nothing special to be brutally honest. I welcome new writers for the next one. Not to mention the story in RDRII, it's a big cliche at best.
@playstation1995 Personally I'm even more excited to see what one of the founders of Dead space (Glen Schofield) can create in the new game "Callisto Protocol" by his new studio Striking Distance. Fingers crossed it'll be good.

Re: Xbox Series X|S Is Getting Trounced by PS5, Microsoft Weirdly Reveals
@Friendly How am I to know how old you are? I was thinking about this: https://whatculture.com/gaming/10-most-shocking-e3-reveals-ever?page=6
And as I remember the 360 had exclusive deals for DLC on COD for many years in the PS3 era.

Re: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Composer Exits Project, Says Soundtrack Is 'Not My Artistic Intent'
@__jamiie so, was that an opinion? I read your first comment more as a question for which you also was so kind as to provide an aswer... of sorts.
Re: God of War Ragnarok (PS5) - A Dazzling Crown Jewel in Sony's Catalogue
@middyone you are not worth it …

Re: God of War Ragnarok (PS5) - A Dazzling Crown Jewel in Sony's Catalogue
@nomither6 Probably won't be a third one, not in this series anyway. Maybe a spinoff or something, who knows.
Re: God of War Ragnarok (PS5) - A Dazzling Crown Jewel in Sony's Catalogue
@dark_knightmare2 HFW is a snorefeast compared to this game I'm sure. And I platinumed HFW.
Re: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (PS5) - Infinity Ward Proves It Knows Best
@Jeanhenry yes, currently no hardcore mode. I’ve heard it will be added later, and its being called tier 1 mode or something.
Re: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 (PS5) - Infinity Ward Proves It Knows Best
@LiamCroft so… how about mentioning all which is missing as of now?
Such as:
Leader boards
Medals
Stats
Barraks
Challenges
Hardcore modes
Camos
Etc.
The game itself is allright, but the whole expensive package is lacking a whole lot of contents. This is a fact!

Re: God of War Ragnarok Game Length Is Reportedly Worthy of Jörmungandr Himself
I think I'll spend much longer time in this game when trying to hunt down most of the trophies not to speak of trying to go for Platinum, phew.
