@riceNpea Huh? That was a bizarre take away.....I mean the sex scene in wolfenstein was an eye opener, but was still just bizzare-i mean stars the point? Do the SIMS have actual sex scenes? I think that would be actually be a place it makes sense
As someone that's hardly burnt out on Halo, Infinite was..... . ...... bland. Wasn't bad, just really average and u was really excited to play it. Hiring him is not bragging rights
I'll admit I'm getting old, darn it really old actually.... But I still still vividly remember All the timed content of the 360 Era where it seemed like because Xbox was crushing PS3 we got either inferior versions or had to wait months or years because publishers saw a 3rd place console( well that and the stupid cell) so we were always getting the short end of the stick. This never really seems to get brought up, but Sony didn't just start buying the big guns, they spent years reestablishing their brand. I think MS started the right way but were not patient enough and said screw it we will buy our way to the top
I'm actually with with this as well, I really enjoy the Xbox ecosystem, but my golly there is nothing worth playing on it right know. I understand it's crappy to bail on the PS only owners, but we are kind of spoiled with great games
Ya, the timing on going back to a scored system with the release of Zelda and not giving it a 10....(they knew it would generate massive traffic). Not odd at all
They do have some really Talented wordsmiths, but their actual reviews on games can be a little obtuse at times. It should be interesting to see their reviews down the road with actual numbers attached
@kyleforrester87 What do you do with the burned Starlings? Burning money is understandable, it's the harbinger of adulting and a fun way to offset grey hairand eventual complete baldness
@Darude84 Take my opinion lightly, as I may have just been to burned out from work to enjoy anything but I loved RE 7, and REALLY didn't enjoy Village. I think I played until the castle and just wasn't finding it fun.
I simply have no faith left in most people to not lie for their own self preservation, or to encourage the ire of social media masses for the purposes of seeking attention for perceived ills. I've become far to cynical/ jaded
I know it won't happen, as I'm sure it didn't do well, but I would love a sequel to 40K Hired Gun- Had a really great time with it. I've had Cultic sitting in my Steam Cart for a while now- Boomer shooters are fun for an hour or two, but I grew up during Dooms heyday, I've had my fill
@CaptD Taxes in the US make it a little odd, because we don't add VAT into it listed price.
Where I live is not $69 it's $77 so pretty close across the board. Bigger cities think some are paying almost $80. It's maddening keeping track of all this
I really don't understand Publishers and their desire to keep impacting full price purchases.
I really want Redfall, and this(a shiny NEW game), and Dead Island 2, but I'll wait for patches first. After 2-3 months of patches the game will be complete, will definitely be cheaper, and most people are going to buy cheaper and not full price if they can.
I'll never forget Days Gone director complaining about a lot of "not full price purchases"- well ya.....
They almost created something VERY special with this game, the city itself is very well realized and the RT patch does look "pretty " Good. They came close- after 10 patches-, will be interesresting to see what this looks like with mods 10 years from now
@somnambulance This exactly. Some of the articles Pushsquare put out were incredible. It's one of those games, my backlog didn't allow me to invest in but a PS+ inclusion and I would have at least kepto it installed and who knows maybe gotten hooked. Sony can make just bizarre choices....
This was talked about a lot when Stadia was making waves, but compared to our fiends across the pond most of America has crappy internet, really crappy. I live in a decent sized city, almost 60,000 people and I pay for the "elite tier" of internet and its 14mbps( also known as 11 on average). Most of the time PS clod, and Xbox cloud would not run well. That's probably several million gamers in the US have similar speeds. Our internet infrastructure is hilariously behind Europe and Asia
I'm not remotely knowledgeable regarding 40k universe stuff, but I thought Hired Gun was actually pretty good, the world was fun to be in. This might be a nice and fun romp, here's hoping.
That was kind of fun, I haven't done any game reviews whatsoever since GameSpot stopped being GameSpot about 6-7 years ago. Also it was a huge mistake getting a SteamDeck, this just reminded me I'll never catch up.
I know I'm beating a dead horse here, but we have never had such a gluttony of game selection. I really want Dead Island to be decent, but I'll still wait 3 months so Dam Busters can patch the living hell out of it, no way it releases in a great state
@nhSnork Well said, it's humanity at its barest form. You remove all the built in societal safety nets of real human integrity and these instances will always show up. I don't think this is reflective of gamers, just a reminder that there are plenty of awful people and always will be.

Course you may also want to reimburse Eurogamer ha ha, but watching their subscription model from a distance I understand the concerns you've got regarding this model
@themightyant After all these years of gaming site comments sections and forums, even though I've never played it I knew instantly the right answer π π. I also thought I was finally going to get my 90% ...... ya not even close 8/15
I agree with your take, 2 was great, but 3 was a blast. 4 was exactly that, an abomination. I think it was made by Avalanche B team, and it looked and played like it. I think Avalanche main team was working on Rage 2 at that time? Also ....(I loved Rage, and Rage 2.........) can't recall if that's not allowed or not

Re: All of a Sudden, High on Life Is Out Now on PS5, PS4
I grabbed it during the Steam sale for the Steam Deck, and it's okay. It's " Deck Verified"which I think is a stretch.
I think it's worth 30, full price worthy it is not.
Re: Square Enix Happy with Final Fantasy 16 Sales, Considers Them 'Extremely Strong'
@Gaia093 I'm almost positive they made this statement under duress.
I simply don't believe they

That was Infinite, such a shame that game got dragged through the mud.
It's is one of the best COD campaigns by far, and it takes place in space. It's a really good FPS campaigns even if you hate COD
