The original had a lot of love put into it, and the many flaws were often overshadowed by the adventure through the land. From canyons full of harpies, old ruins populated by monsters and even the lesser dragons and other gigantic foes. The game was sprawling in size and depth.
While the frame rate is a thing, and the cutscenes being off, it was never a big deal with the lip syncing being off. That said, the first was plagued by its share of bugs, but it was eventually optimized to being a fun game.
Choice was a big decision in the first with the line of being good or evil, not so easy to distinguish. The first game had a wonderful system of always putting forth the question of taking the dragons deal. Hopefully this trend continues. Looking forward to it.
I’d love to know what beef the Sony higher ups have against Bloodborne. Always seems to be the games they liked least that get canned for no apparent reason.
Really need a Gacha game with more R rated violence. Some actual mechanics that let you butcher and utilize monster parts instead of them fading into non existence.
After slipping on banana peels, hit by wind blades, popped by fireworks and even got smacked by a ball of something. After all that, I returned those little ***** to their tree. The thanks I get? Some lousy gems and spare magazines. Kupo!
Looks more like racing with one giant, rolling obstacle. Without it being more open, and prone to slices and hooks, it just looks generic. Reminds me of the clones of <insert any racing game>.
@Member_the_game Actually, the use of the word lame is of a close and personal nature. It is declared to be an opinion, a fact or a falsehood. In this case, I would warrant this an opinion.
Putting things in after the “I told you so” content is a waste of time and energy. So many possible paths and extras that should have been in the original game, and even justifying that it was a complete game falls flat when you give in to public outcry.
Pretty pathetic to release extra material that should have been part of the original. Too little too late.
Until Dawn and The Quarry were absolute gems. The other stories delved into hallucinations, prehistoric CHUDs or just crazy people. Stick with supernatural, known monsters. Try staying away from polarizing events like wars, schizophrenia and hallucinogenic gas that hadn’t dissipated in 50 years.
Console wars should be about sales and everyone enjoying games irregardless of system. Xbox took to eliminating that aspect. Now sales are falling for Xbox, quite a blunder keeping hit games exclusive to last generation consoles. Maybe buying all those devs wasn’t such a good idea after all.
Haven’t seen this much interest in a murder simulator since the Gulf War. The story outside of the revenge-murder part is great and full of heartwarming moments, too bad they get muddled up in the pointless anger scheme.
The game already hit the right notes with accessibility options, aside from graphics, there’s not much to change. Still liked the werewolf story better.
Last FMV game I played was Beyond Zork. Others like Blown Away, Phantasmagoria, 7th Guest and Myst were also interesting during that time. The most famous one was the Dana Plato one. A definite choose your own adventure niche of titles.
Despite the plagiarism, of which it’s obvious and foolish to think they chose this in development. Throwing a ball like device to capture, seriously they couldn’t come up with a different method? Guns are part of the game, why not tie it all together?
This game while interesting and cute, is just asking for legal trouble. Too similar to Pokemon.
Loved the original Timesplitters, the parody of GTA Saints Row and the looter shooter Borderlands. Enjoying Wonderlands right now. Eager to see what comes next.
It’s a shame the Borderlands movie is going the way of Batgirl.
Hated the game and story. All revenge, murder and torture. Completely ruined the storyline of survival in a post apocalyptic world. Finished it, deleted and won’t touch it again. Part 1 was great, the sequel stunk on many levels and ruined how I feel about the character.

Re: PS5 Exclusive Stellar Blade Gets Adults-Only Rating for Nudity, Violence in Korea
The views in the Asian region on nudity, sex and violence are quite archaic and rely mostly on honor and family.
Whereas in America and other nations, we have a very lax and tame society that is mostly numb to acts of violence and nudity.

Somewhere between chapters 7-8, really loving the entire Sugimon game. The island is also fun with the many Sleazy options.

Re: Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 Gameplay Revealed, Out on PS5 in the 'Coming Months'
Looks bad, playing it on an Xbox judging by the prompts. So it’s watered down to sell on both Xbox systems. This, while interesting, is a hard pass.
Re: Hands On: Suicide Squad Takes a Lot of Getting Used to, and It May Not Be Worth It
So aside from the characters you’re playing, can you actually do anything villainous? Can you rob a bank? Murder innocents? Actually kill people?
Seems like a typical buddy romp to save the world, when you should be able to commit crimes. And that bomb in your head trick is old and used.
