I mean. I game tons as well (since the mid 80’s), but I have my ’chievs split between Trophies and GamerScore (Xbox). I have a couple plats, and a bunch of ”1000/1000 GS”. But nowhere near 500! Then again, sadly I find not that many games keep me around much after I’ve completed them. Plus I often find myself stuck playing the same MP games forever, taking up time (Overwatch 2 have taken up way too much time). But I do play a whole bunch of SP games as well, sadly not enough to plat many.
But out of those 500 plats you got, how many are cheap ”10 min to plat” games? Be honest 😂
@Korgon Yeah, i loved Infinite as well! I mean, the game even scored really well. But it became popular to hate on it. I love when people that either haven't even played it, or barely have played it, tell us how bad it is..
The game was great on day 1 for me (i'm talking the campaign here). I revisited it earlier this year, and it was still great fun.
Off topic: That headline.. Man, Sammy's fanboyism again shines through. I promise that the Halo remake's focus isn't on PS5 first and foremost. Out of all the single-platform centric sites, this one is the worst when it comes to fanboyism.
Why would they update their score? A game gets a score when reviewed, most often at release. Considering how buggy and broken many games are at release these days, sites like Pushsquare would have to rewrite a TON of reviews if they were to "update the score" every time a game gets fixed.. (It should be "fixed" when it's released, not in the months/years after release). If a game gets improved though, that's another matter, but you still obviously don't go and rewrite a review and alter the score, lol.
You mean like how Sammy is implying stuff at the end of the article, after he just "posted quotes" — "Ultimately, we think it’s probably safe to say that while Xbox Game Pass does represent great value, it’s not the future of gaming, as was hypothesised at the start of the generation."
Personally, i own a PS5 Pro, PS Portal, Series X, Switch 2, Steam Deck, RTX 5070 Ti W11 PC and a bunch of older stuff. I game on everything, and hate fanboyism — And Pushsquare are the worst in that regard, that is just how it is, even compared to other "one platform sites" like PureXbox and NintendoLife. And Sammy is probably the worst of them all, sadly. I really like several of his articles, and i visit this site daily, but some of the stuff just reeks of fanboyism, in a bad way.
And i am not saying this in defense of Microsoft, at all. I generally love GamePass, but i also thinks it de-value games a bit, and i love buying and reselling physical games. So yeah, i do not love everything about GamePass. At the same time i think Sony could step it up a bunch of notches with their subscriptions..... I pay for PS Premium, but it is not really worth it to be honest. Nintendo need to step it up the most, their whole online infrastucture and their online subscription are so dated it almost hurts.
Hahaha. Funny! Trust me, plenty are playing, and D4 will keep rolling for many years still. PoE2 is good, but i actually went back to D4. PoE2 still feels very much like a work in progress, i can't be arsed to play it anymore. I'll probably revisit it though in a year or two.
@TimelessJubilee Indeed a great game! The atmosphere's amazing. The dialect spoken also amazing! And i love that it takes place in 1975. All around a great experience. Played it on PC Game Pass maxed out (looks amazing!) in 21:9 Ultrawide. Highly recommended.
@LavenderShroud Nah it wasn't/isn't a huge hit by any means. But the premise and look are great, and personally i really like the game. I can somehow see how it could become a movie or series. The hype for the game beforehand was semi-big (well, almost semi-big).
@Fishnpeas
"Some"?
I promise A LOT more than 12K people at once have been playing it on Game Pass. You can basically buy a month of Game Pass and complete the game for far less than buying the actual game. Personally i love the game, it's everything i hoped it would be . I'm playing on PC.
You're misinterpreting. Microsoft can obviously also stream acti-blizz out to users. But with this deal they sell the rights for Ubisoft to do the same.
@AdamNovice He means games that are ONLY on PS5. You mentioned games that are either on PS4 as well, or basically all platforms. In that case you could mention a ton more.

500 plats??? 👀💀
Wtf. Nice (I think?).
