@Would_you_kindly
I'd pay for big Shaq being cast for the role. I'd buy the collector's edition and all the merch

@RobN
Yeah very true, especially considering the game has more dialogue than a game like Mass Effect 2 lol.
So tuning into different npc's conversations can almost never get old either. A sequel would be bonkers!
Too bad Ubisoft has lost its touch. I'm often considered a Ubi hater, but the fact is, they made some great stuff and it's a shame where they are now in comparison

@z0d15g0d
Yeah I think I got overwhelmed at first. Loved the gameplay though so I may give it another shot

Better horse riding and far better combat and maybe even storytelling than Assassin's Creed.
Too bad this game is so hard to get into

@RobN that's what it always is with Ubisoft.
Incredible premises, fun ideas. They just never get any treatment they deserve and they just deliver these half@ssed games that play like crap, look like crap and are written like crap

@Slippship
Can this garbage game die already. I've seen way too many articles on a crap game that has received a crap port by now.
All it does is remind me of the last good game Ubisoft had made and it actually is a PS3 game:
Driver SF, which has way better gameplay, graphics, physics, campaign and car mechanics than this piece of trash which belongs in trash, just like its company.

Absolutely insane where Ubisoft is when you look back at Driver SF

Ace Combat with... dragons?
I'll take it

@AverageGamer
They've done official toys and collectibles a lot and are still actively doing it though.
I'm just salty they didn't really take some risk with that.
And yeah, I did kinda throw wearables and gadgets on the same pile as merchandise

The company that was too blind to make a Funko Pop-type collectibles franchise out of Sackboys?
I doubt it'll work out.

Sony has so many IP's and characters. They could've used Sackboys as a base for all their characters, just like Funkos. I would've collected them like crazy.
Ever since they missed banking on that, I've lost all faith and interest in Sony's merch

Shame.
GTA IV is the best GTA for me.
They could've easily outsourced it to a 3rd party dev though... NOT EX MOBILE DEVS FOR THAT MATTER, but actual competent devs

This is one of those dumb games I used to avoid back then. Think I'll appreciate them more nowadays.
While we're at it, remake Deadly Premonition as well!

Good for them for taking the L lol.
Was probably something stupid their out of touch Twitter person did.

They're still remaking DS and making a new Skate game. Skate compensates for a lot IMO, since it's something that takes balls nowadays

Aww man this looks sweet sweet SWEEETT!

@dschons
Nah, it's completely understandable.
Most games nowadays are made for that one playthrough. Getting you from A to B. Not a lot of variety in how things are done, especially with the lack of physics in most games since the PS4 gen.

Perfect example, once again...
Spider-Man 2 PS2 you could snatch up amazing swinging combos, wallruns and free fall stances. It looked absolutely amazing. The game had some actual physics. It had a fun learning curve. The better you got, the more fun it got.

New Spidey games? Not so much.
Hold a single button and move the stick. That's it. One hand controller, one hand cup of coffee. No physics, boring as hell. I'm sorry.

Skate games were always one of those games that took skill, but were fun from the start as well. With all the spoonfeeding going on with these games in the hopes of appealing to as many people as possible, they've left out the fun

Where does this impatience even come from? Is it Twitter or some crap? Why are we even paying attention to that?
Can't people just go on with their lives and when things release, they'd be pleasantly surprised? No waiting around anymore? Doesn't that sound nice?
Maybe I'm just getting older

The reaction is mindboggling. Gamers are actually insane.

This is more of Arkham. More of the incredible combat, the sandbox, the graphics, the storytelling. It's just in a multiplayer package now.

Have we forgotten how good the Arkham games were? The trailer is crap, but the gameplay is there. Clear as day.

Shame about the live service? Definitely. But I'm on this on day one, because they've got an incredible track record. Period.
Most triple A games wished they had gameplay this good.

@sanderson72
That's good to hear, thanks!
Yeah I loved the dirt and the amazon settings as well, but for me, driving out of falling building while some plane is crashing nearby to create another path you can drive through while Noisia is pumping in the background is just the pinnacle of pinnacles.

Would love to see PR on there as well!

@nessisonett
Yeah this, but unironically. There aren't that many good ones and I absolutely love the setting.

Hopefully the show shows more teeth and has more grit than the games. The games fell flat for me and the characters are dull as hell.
But the world is absolutely amazing though, so there's potential

@sanderson72 @AnnetteM
Sooo Apocalypse is on the PS+ collection? Guess I'm gonna have to look into the service after all!

But then Codemasters was responsible for Onrush? That was a bit underwhelming, so hopefully EA can get something out of them, but... EA.

Can somebody PLEASE make a new Motorstorm (apocalypse) type game for the love of god!
EA, you got pretty much the best studio out of all of them by buying Evolution. Just do it!

Emails on purchases, fine.
Free Plus downloads? No.
Not that hard Sony

@jrt87
Lmao with that thumbnail, I immediately thought the title said "baldly"

Reminiscing of the incredible Motorstorm Apocalypse soundtrack... So good...

Now THAT was a rush of an experience, Steve

@Bismarck
Most games have utter crap scripts, but you're mocking the ones that actually have a good track record.

For some reason gamers expect a LOT from quality devs and criticize them, but are absolutely fine with playing mediocre games from crap companies. Such a weird trend

@Bismarck
Ah I got it mixed up there then. Still though, Origins was pretty good, so this could be good and WB definitely is letting them polish this sucker.

>And the Harry Potter game will definitely be targeting children so it's probably not made for us.

Alright. By now you're just sounding like a doomer

@Bismarck
Unfortunately I can agree that the state of openworld games is pretty mediocre.
Though at least Dying Light and Horizon were decent.
Going in from A to B to shoot X and repeat that same thing for 30 hours has gotten a bit stale.

Looking forward to this one though, since it's Rocksteady and definitely looking forward to the smaller openworld game Hogwarts

@Bismarck
Which is still a lot. They're no Ubisoft.
AK was bigger and still had amazing details everywhere. Even the Batmobile worked flawless.
Cars are something only a few openworld games have done right so far.
AK did the freaking Batmobile right and people still complained. Meanwhile they're buying games with crappy car mechanics like Watch Dogs and empty world games like Assassin's Creed lol alright then

@OmegaStriver
Annoying how much I miss it.
Annoying how bad sony treated Evolution studio
Annoying how there's literally nothing as epic as MS Apocalypse on the market anymore.

This freaking game.

I've been burned by how disappointed I was with FFXV, Nino Kuni 2 and DQ11...
Then this f2p perfectly scratched that JRPG itch for me. I'm only a couple hours in, but it's already miles better than the ones above imo and way more polished

@AdamNovice
Thankfully that doesn't happen too often anymore...
That's when he can act like he's got some serious lumbago just like Uncle from RDR

@nessisonett
And then you proceed to whine about it on Twitter and everywhere else as is tradition

@TheCollector316
Yeah what a crappy way of trying to get players addicted to their crappy season passes for their casual game. Who even wants to grind this game that much? I'm fine with just finishing the story to this game and never touching it again.

I've gotten way more free content from free games than this paid pass provides for this paid game. Who the hell do they think they are lol. They need get back down to earth

Look at it EA.

LOOK AT IT!

Never heard of it, but holy moly this trailer is well done.
Immediately peaked my interest. Throwing it in the backlog

Can I just please enjoy my oldschool cheap PS plus, get the games I want on day 1, otherwise get them on sale?
I don't want my PS to become another Netflix.
Already have 3 streaming subscriptions and I'm not gonna pay double for my Plus tyvm. Tired of these subscriptions

Think my edgy teenage self thought this was stupid back in the day. Did enjoy MGS Rising though, but my games needed to be really serious and meaningful.

I have a feeling these intentionally silly games would be much more enjoyable now, especially in this meme culture we grew up in.

@Goat_FromBOTW
Exactly.
I'm tired of these paper mache feeling Japanese games where you fight hordes and hordes of enemies.
"Look you're a samurai and slaughtering hordes of enemies! Isn't that COOL!?"
This here is that, but with mechs and dinosaurs...

I'd have much more satisfaction with a heavier game where you kill a single dino with a well placed shot instead of this button mashfest

@ScepticDK
Even the story is better?
That was like the worst part in the first game lol. Combined with terrible voice acting.
This one seems like a bargain bin game then unfortunately. Weird, especially how it spent so much time in development

Man, with all this timed exclusivity crap, I'm actually kinda relieved.
I can keep chipping away slowly at this huge backlog I have. Keep your game passes and timed exclusivities. I'll get them when they're dirt cheap

Except for Factions 2 and Hogwarts of course. Day one baby!

@somnambulance
Because they're made and funded by a huge company. These on the other hand are indie games.

Either way, loving all these risky unique indie games that are gonna keep coming out soon

Yeah this looks crazy good.
Definitely a day one to support these devs

Factions love! Finally!

I'm pretty much always falling back to Factions. No matter how good other multiplayer games are, at the end of the day I get bored and they end up not being good enough and I fall back to Factions

That and Tales of Arise this weekend

This looks pretty sweet. I'll take it

I've put thousands of hours into factions and if I'm not getting the good ol' 4v4 in balanced and classic maps like the original then I would be very sad.

This does seem really great and ND will deliver...
But there's nothing that's s good as factions. No stealth/ tactical/ brutal multiplayer game that has gameplay that is this polished. Which is insane since it's a decade old. This industry is incompetent and mediocre most of the time. Mostly because of decision making at the top

Dude that Factions 2 concept looks insane. I get DayZ vibes, but with actual good gameplay.
One thing I'm worried about is the potential lack of a 4v4 in incredibly good and classic maps like in the original factions (minus the tiny DLC maps that resembled Nuketown).
Hope they keep the original modes in there as well, because the tactical, stealthy and brutal gameplay (that literally no one else does, let alone this good) is too good to be left behind

Ps. This was just a huge advertisement show, just like TGA's with games that absolutely did not belong in the spotlight and it dragged on in parts

This one literally made me laugh out loud when the gameplay came up lmao... What a facepalm.
Especially after the decent aliens Isolation

@alexbolton2
A decade too late after ruining Visceral Games.
I'll take it for sure, but they're a bunch of wimps and wanna test the waters for interest first.
These guys meanwhile actually make a triple A spiritual successor, so yeah

Though they do need to tweak the feeling of the gun and the impact. Dead Space was insane with that and this doesn't even come close

This is SO over the top Dead Space, I absolutely love it. Day 1.

EA doesn't do it, so I guess someone has to
