@NinjaNicky Im very happy with the build quality. I did get a case off Amazon, as it doesn't come with it, which is such a weird omission.
I've got a few hundred hours on it, even toted it to work a few odd times.
Didn't work great out of home, where it's flawless. I only get about 8mb up vs 180mb down. Hadn't tried port forwarding for out of home so it may yet work.
I loved the show Walter Groggins is always brilliant, and he nailed the ghoul. Lucy is great to, and I feel sort of bad saying this, but my gosh she is so goofy looking. Far too many face only shots
@KundaliniRising333 That character was so badly done, and the guy is not the greatest actor either. I don't think I've seen a single comment praising that character, pretty widely despised.
Does this have cross play? I bought for SteamDeck after being devastated by .............Starfield....... I've got the PS4 version, but I'm not sure I've still got those save files.
@Kanji-Tatsumi In not sure how this fact is not more widely known in video game circles, but American 70$ is without tax. WE have no VAT added . It costs me 78$ after tax.78$=61£=71€
@Chaotic_Goat As a child of the 1980s I think it's great. A lot of people aren't fans though and I don't get it. So tired of "half shaved head hair floppy " haircuts
I'm dying to play this, but I swore on my backlog I wouldn't buy any new games. I've already broken my oath 3x, Trepang, Forspoken, Avium all for 20 each.
@naruball @GamingFan4Lyf This is the weird fanboy conspiracy over on PureXbox in a nutshell. Some goofy idea that a large driver for saying it's kind of middling is PS fans crusading to damage it. Its the newest Bethesda mainline game, people will want to play it regardless
@Drago201 Don't they put actual micro transactions in all their games? It seems like a store is there for every REremake? Also refreshing they are actual micro and not 10+ like other "micro" prices🙃
After 30 years of inverted controls, I have been unable to train my brain to work with regular up and down. I can't do it, I can shoot a basketball left handed, sight read pretty complex sheet music. I can pick up basic parts of languages, read medical charts but play with regular up and down.....IMPOSSIBLE
@soracloud28 This didn't review terribly, but it's live service AND every one's favorite whipping boy Ubisoft....... Sea of Thieves did not start so well either but has finished great. I'm curious to see how it turns out
It's rather remarkable that threads on nerd video game websites could see that Embracers rapid expansion based on market trends and apparently nothing else was going to end badly. Unless of course these buyouts, and I'm assuming plenty of tax exemptions were the plan all along....
I love my Portal, my only real complaint is the inability to log onto wifi the requires a sign in. I know there are plenty of work around but I honestly had no idea when I bought it and it was a scrappy surprise
I got to the part where you get the glider and just......... . couldn't be bothered anymore, it's a decent time but it's just missing c something. I've had far more fun in Dead Island 2
@nessisonett These numbers are staggering, it's sickening. It reads like all purchasing and game creation decisions were made by people who clearly have no hx of VG industry ebb and flow, people that were outsmarted by Nerds in gaming websites that saw this coming years ago. I really need to try and sue down and read investor meeting notes for a full cycle, might be fascinating.
Considering this generation I've finally joined Team Green, and finally got to indulge in Gears, Halo,Forza I'm good. Of course I finally join Team Green and Microsoft does this.
@Flaming_Kaiser What kind of nonsense response was that? Was I suppose to know that 3+ years into PS5, we'd have only niche 1st party games- excluding SM 2? Here Sony is talking about possibly More remakes......PS4 might have been this barren, don't recall but I do remember the constant remasters
@B0udoir What's so unreasonable to think it can't be both. I lived in Korea for 2 years, and the sport is fairly popular.
Also walking in the big cities seeing women that looked like anime was pretty common
More than a few times friends and myself may have stopped and dropped jaws
@Kidfried I salute you for not immediately disparaging people who enjoy the character. Having said that, if you notice nobody ever gets fired because they were a bad employee, so just believing rumors because they are a " hot button topic" is a slippery slope.
I dearly love Playstation, I'll never forget being sicker than a dog on my birthday and opening a PS1 to my utter shock and joy. It started a long love affair and brand loyalty, and grabbing a pS5 during the shortage was almost the same joy again. I have not bought a single PS5 only game yet this Gen, and all these remakes are not exactly making me want to. This generation has been surreal
So this might be pure conspiracy on my part, but I think Wesley , previously of Eurogamer, is hijacking articles and reposting them on IGN from Pushsquare, Eurogamer, Pure Xbox.
I've noticed a LOT of similar articles find their way on IGN shortly after they get published on these sites
@Starkei As an occasional fan of physics and having never watched the trailer assuming it wasn't my cup of tea. Ahem, the physics are indeed impressive, the game itself looks freaking really good too. Excited to see how this reviews
The verbage he used is........ concerning. Almost like he was trying to say" it's an interactive movie, but not really because I make video games, but really it's an interactive movie"
@Bamila After how huge it was, give WB time...... They will find a way, they won't be able to help themselves because if all the lost gas revenue it world have created
@GuttyYZ I'm actually glad to hear this almost, I really wondered if I'd borked my save file some how. I think turning off cross saves did help a little
I still am getting WAY Too many crashes, a little absurd.
Having said that, holy moly that world is just flat nuts. I know the CP2077/Starfield comparison is tiresome.... but it's nothing short of laughable in the difference
@Ambassador_Kong That's true, but I'd rather just experience for myself and make up my own mind and all that. I really do appreciate you taking the time, but I really do hope to go in clean as I can

Re: Video: Does Fallout 4 Look Better on PS5?
