Infinite Wealth is the only new game this year that I’ve started a replay on. Most games I set a rule for a 1 year break after beating it. LAD: IW is my GOTY, with FF7 Rebirth a close second. Tbh I probably would’ve started hard mode of Rebirth if the mini games didn’t cause me to slam my head against my wall. Screw Jules. I have wrist issues so doing that mini game is like hell to me
I think I have a 2TB one installed then for my PS4 games I have a 3 to 5 TB external one that I even transfer PS5 games to if I’m not playing them any time soon. 8 TB just seems like a lot at that price when you can get what I have much, much cheaper. I’m no Tech Wizard though
Finishing up my first RE7 playthrough on Normal then I might speedrun one playthrough quickly to prep for Madhouse. But I’m saving Madhouse for later. Probably either continue my replay of HFW or Uncharted 4 afterwards
I loved Demon’s Souls/Bloodborne/Elden Ring/Sekiro but have yet to try a Dark Souls game. I have Dark Souls II and Dark Souls III bought though 😂😂 gonna have to buy Dark Souls Remastered though to play that first
Still waiting for a regular physical edition. I’m not paying $100 at the Larian site (including shipping) for a franchise I’ve never played before. Feels like I’m waiting forever 😭😭😭
If Tekken and/or Street Fighter did Kiryu, Majima and/or Ichiban justice (which they probably would), I think it’d be a no brainer. It brings more eyes to your games without having to do much.
Good. PlayStation needs new IPs like in the PS4 era where they had Spider-Man, Bloodborne, Horizon & GoT amongst others. As long as this doesn’t make the next GoW delayed by any means, I’m excited for a new IP. Most of the Sony studio games are continuations or remakes/remasters lately
I’ve been tempted almost every day to buy this. You’re making my resistance more difficult. I’m trying to hold off until the inevitable Black Friday sales but I know I’ll cave in soon 😭😭😭😭
Finishing up my replay of Persona 5 Royal tonight (literally on the last day saying goodbye to everyone 😭😭😭) then I’m at a loss to find what’s next to play. I want to buy Baldur’s Gate 3 but I want it as a physical copy. Costs too much in Larian’s store. I don’t want to replay a game since I’ve replayed both Witcher 3 and P5R back to back. I don’t know what to play 😭😭😭
Can’t blame them. This is going to be a huge issue in the entertainment business for years to come. Getting a leg up now is a smart idea even though more issues will continue to pop up anyways
Weirdly enough I’m replaying Infinite Wealth as well. It’s been on my mind all week. I normally wait a year until I consider replaying anything but it’s that good
I really want to buy this Day 1 but I feel like it’ll be on discount come the holiday season. This is a title I think I can wait for. Inb4 I order it tonight
For me, it’s Infinite Wealth & Rebirth in no order. Then it’s between Stellar Blade and Persona 3 Reload. Those are my top 4 games easy. Such a great year of gaming for me!
Size does matter. It’s the reason my last few exs dumped me. It’s not my fault it’s micro. I blame my father. Oh well. Excited to try this game despite my PTSD with the title
@Rmg0731 yah the rewind feature is so cool. Absolutely love it. I just wish they’d figure out how to let us download the PS3 games. I have no clue the issues/complexities with it. But I’d love to be able to play the PS3 games because I actually skipped that Gen
@Ravix great photos btw. I hadn’t seen the Mike Gorman one yet. Such a classy man. To your Al Horford comment: I cannot see him not making the HoF. 2 NCAA Championships, an NBA Championship plus a long, great career. He’s a lock IMO. I think ATM there will eventually be 4 HoFers from this Celtics squad: Tatum & Brown, Jrue, then Horford. Especially if the C’s win a 2nd championship with this core. Gonna be a fun few years coming up 😎😎😎 Banner 19 next
@Rmg0731 awesome! I’ve downloaded plenty of the PS1 games but haven’t looked at any PSP. Just was super disappointed when I tried to stream GoW. It lagged so badly that my button inputs were never fully registering during the “button mash” sections. Glad that PSP games aren’t streaming
Might be the first time I ever buy an 2K NBA game. Finally my boy Tatum is getting the respect he deserves. Glad there are a few Celtics fans on this site as well.
It’s Metaphor. Astrobot then NCAA Football (for nostalgia) and it’s not even close. I might only preorder Metaphor since Atlus games are usually very polished
Eh, I’m sure they’re not making like 30 different dungeons. They’ll probably have 10 or so base/themed ones and maybe switch up a few floors on each for the alternatives. So I’m not worried about missing much
An Elden Ring anime like what Cyberpunk did with an original story would be amazing. I would love them to pursue that rather than a movie. I’m not a big movie guy so I’m being selfish 😂😂😂
The game’s brutality? Nah. If the platinum is brutal? Yes.
It also depends on if the gameplay is “fairly” brutal like Souls which teaches you to master certain things compared to some games that are just punishing to be punishing aka there’s really no point. Souls does it the best IMO. It’s satisfying when you beat a boss you were stuck on and finally have it all click together
Stellar Blade was a refreshing experience. I had a lot of fun with the combat. There’s great potential in a sequel so I hope that gets going whenever. I’d be there Day 1
Not every game needs romance. Plus, Persona’s romances kind of feel bare bones at times despite being my favorite franchise. I’m fine with Metaphor not having it if that’s the case
It was my GOTY last year. Absolutely loved it. Clive was an amazing FF Protagonist. The visuals were stunning and the combat felt so fluid and smooth. I’m waiting a little bit for my 2nd playthrough but it’s getting harder to keep putting it off 😂😂 I get the disappointment from people. For me though, I couldn’t be happier with it

Re: A New Day, a New Bloodborne PS5 Rumour
A “leaker” has a paid patreon. Why do people pay others for this “info”? Baffling to me

Re: Next Like a Dragon Title a Surprise for Fans, RGG Studio Teases

The Witcher 3 but I did watch all of Blue Lock from Wednesday through Saturday. So I’ve been shifting back & forth between the pair until today
Re: Talking Point: What's Your PS5 Game of the Year for 2024 So Far?
I put Infinite Wealth but it’s very close with Rebirth. Both are spectacular games
Re: Shocking: There's a New Resident Evil Game in Development

Re: Poll: Can a Game's Brutal Difficulty Put You Off Playing It?
