Re: Fans Want Sony to Reconsider Horizon Forbidden West's PS4 to PS5 Upgrade

Casco

@strawhatcrew problem is, if you are in the third scenario you are screwed either way. You'll either have to wait to play until you get a PS5', or if you buy right away then you'll be stuck with an inferior version. Why is it so hard to comprehend for you? It's a sleazy move, forming people on your third scenario to buy a special edition they might have no interest on.

Re: Sony Fans Bicker Over Ghost of Tsushima PS5 Paywall

Casco

@helloim_anthony just because I can spend it doesn’t mean that I should. Even Bethesda gave a damn next gen upgrade for DOOM Eternal for free (while it continues to charge separately for the DLC). Would it really kill Sony to give it for free while charging for DLC? They look petty trying to nickel and dime their customers.

Re: Sony: We're Not Going Around Making Random Acquisitions

Casco

Bethesda is as Strategic as any acquisition can get, and their games can be real console sellers.....Would hardly consider it "random"by any standards, but rather a well thought-out strategic move

Nice job securing Housemarque, but is not in the same Ballpark, hell, not even in the same planet as Bethesda

Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite PS5, PS4 Game of 2021 So Far?

Casco

Not much grabbing me from that list to be honest. Most of the great games in there I had played on previous gen. Ratchet & Clank looks pretty, but also owning a Switch, gameplay-wise I don't think it challenges the big N's offering (they're really the kings of platformers).
I'm not in Roguelike games (altough I did try Hades on Switch and enjoyed it a bit, dropped it quite quickly) so paying 70 for a game I would quickly abandon is not something I'm looking to do.
Resident Evil Village looks great, enjoyed the 2 demos, so I might get that one a bit later.

Re: Don't Hold Your Breath for Bethesda's Starfield on PS5, PS4

@lacerz true but other than Miles Morales (which itself is an “expansion” of a bigger game), is any of those a big AAA game? Demon Souls comes closer, but like all Souls game it’s niche. Same with Returnal - actually it’s bold they are selling a Roguelike game for AAA price - most people who bought it will just get frustrated quick soon and move on.

@SZRT_CIC_Ice as for exclusives. Microsoft’s are the most accesible. You don’t even have to own the console you can just pay a couple of months of Gamepass and play on PC or Xcloud. For Last of Us 2, or Ghost of Tsushima, I can only play on my PS console.

They are very accesible but I don’t see why they would put it on a competing platform as well

@Hypnotoad107 that’s why I got all 3 latest boxes. Can get any game no matter where it comes. Xbox is my preferred for multiplataforms and Gamepass but have my PS5 & Switch for their respective exclusives. All have their place for me and enjoy them all.

It’s awesome to leave console wars behind and just get whatever that catches my attention.

Re: Don't Hold Your Breath for Bethesda's Starfield on PS5, PS4

Casco

I own both consoles. I’d hardly say Sony is really having hit after hit. If anything, the first mass appeal hit they’re launching since Spider-Man Miles Morales is Rarchet & Clank. Demon Souls & Returnal are niche at best, which got a lot of exposure because there’s not much else.

Re: Mortal Kombat Dev Rumoured to Be Working on Marvel Fighter

Casco

@TheFrenchiestFry Lego is it’s whole different thing. Kinda like Smash Bros or now Fortnite, they try to license every singular character. Just because Ryu and Ken are in Smash Doesn’t mean that Nintendo is developing a new Street Fighter game.

And this is based on what, an ambiguous response from Ed? He is like the biggest troll in gaming.

Nothing to see here

Re: Soapbox: My Colleagues Bet On How Far I'd Make It Through Final Fantasy VII Remake

Casco

I never played the original (I only had a N64 back then). I just tried the remake after finishing Death Stranding this week. Liked the intro, I think the cutscene does a great job grabbing your attention. But as I progressed I realized it wasn't clicking with me. Don't like the fighting system with the menu for commands and switching characters, and got very annoyed with it by the first boss. Still, I escaped and made it to the sewers, but I doubt I'll be getting back to it any time soon. Just not my type of game.

Re: Reaction: Sony Said Xbox Game Pass Isn't Sustainable, Then Released One of Its Tentpole Titles into the Service Anyway

Casco

@UltimateOtaku91 The mandate from the league was that the game needed to be released as a multiplatform. I doubt that the MLB had any say on it being released on Gamepass, that is more likely a deal that MS and Sony worked out (maybe MS will give something Bethesda related in exchange? who knows). It might also be an experiment Sony is doing to see how much they could make following this model if they decide to implement it in their own platforms un the future.

Re: Marvel's Avengers Is the Straw That Broke the Camel's Back with PS4 to PS5 Upgrades

Casco

@Stocksy for starters you need to have both versions installed. Some users might find it confusing and might get rid of one or stuff. Not a big deal for me personally but I can see why some people could find it frustrating. Owning also a XSX, in there the next gen version is just handled like just another update. It just updates and you are ready to go....big difference

Re: PS Plus March 2021 PS5, PS4 Games Announced

Casco

Cool, been on the fence about FFVII remake - glad I waited. Would have liked to have the PS5 upgrade, but I'll gladly take this PS4 version for "free" over the 70 USD version! - even if it isn't as shiny as the upcoming one!
