I was honestly unsure about this when I heard about the gameplay, so it's interesting to see people like it. I'll delve into some vids at the weekend and might pick it up.
Yeah, my understanding was that PSN stores your account details under the username, while Xbox Live stores it as a string of numbers it creates when you sign up, hence why you can change your sick xXHanSolo__420__pwnXx handle on Live, but are forever stuck with SuperSaiyanNarutoKyuubi on PSN you dirty weebs.
Still, would love that PS1 support, because as we know, the PS4 is unable to run the complex PS1 architecture.
No it's not perfect because EU doesn't get flash sales wink wonk.
Anyway my thoughts are that sales are good, we've got to accept that there are tons of developers now, all making games. There are so many coming out that we've got to accept that sales are now how we find these games and choose to go for them. I know it's tough for some developers, but the alternative is your game fading in the background because it's swamped amongst everything else being released. The market has changed.
Top tip for 1st time EVOers: Watch some of the side or "lesser" (aka Not SF) tourneys if you can. GG and some of the anime fighters get some of the best moments of the tourney - they've even got Fighterz this year!
Though Resident Evil REVELAITONS was a bit meh (Tried to mix the old and new styles of RE into a best of both, ended up a bit soggy bread IMO) but it's worth a playthrough if you've never played it. Though, the PS3 version is probably like £5 at your local CEX...
Any idea if stat growths been changed to reflect these jobs? I remember Vaan being by far the best tank in the original game due to how much health, speed, and white magic he had, so I was thinking of keeping it the same. Never played the release so it might have been changed then.
I really hope this gets localised. Never played the Disaster Report games but I've always thought they looked great. And this is just... such a great idea for a monster movie game. Screw being Cloverfield, let me be Running Salaryman #23
I've picked this up but haven't played it yet. I think the main issue with these asynchronous games (Like Evolve) is that everyone wants to be the big powerful scary dude rather than the survivors, so it's dull when you can't. I like how the hooks are used though, meaning it's a bit more tactical than "Don't die".
For years I've kept the weeb at bay, but all these One Piece games so low is causing an itch. I haven't even read One Piece in 3 years! Oh man, Dariusburst is cheap too...
"I was like... it's not a game script... it's a.... script." As much as I know I'm going to pick this game up, I can't help but be cynical at the Last of Us chasing they're doing here.
Despite Jim Ryan seemingly attempting to evolve into a being with his foot fused to his mouth, I can't fault him here. Indies aren't like back in 2013 either - lots of them have big followings, their own booths, or a publisher like Devolver with their own shows. If you say Sony don't care about indies, I can't say that's true, just looks at the space they take up on the store and how many of them are pushed with PS+ giveaways and weekly deals.
Scarlet Spider with the 90s hoodie, Spider-Carnage, the Noir one with the full trench, and the Spider armor from the 90s cartoon. I mean, there are tons of great Spider-Man costumes though. It's kind of hard to mess that up.
I got very salty for the teaser, because despite loving the original it's pretty obvious that this isn't the sequel I wanted or that the original teaser hinted at. It seems Ubi have created some sort of Destiny-lite game with the universe. I'm torn.
Also gosh, all those naughty swears in the trailer.
I just saw the highlights, and while there are some good games to look forward to, I feel that they announced too many of these too early last year which kind of made this year retread the same ground.
@get2sammyb Waaaay before it's time I think. Like, Battlefield One has been pushing 64 players as a selling point. MAG with todays internet connection? Would probably be great.
Nice article, I always love silly stage designs. The 2004 one looks like it was stolen from the set of Robot Wars. Also now I remember MAG. Wow, remember when that was going to be The Next Big Thing?
I honestly doubt some of that roster, especially when they're only halfway through Season 2, and that MvCI roster looks suspicious too. Yeah, I'm gonna says it's just the latest Capcom x Consumer fanfic.
@DrClayman Heh, supposedly the only reason my mum got a Mega Drive was because my older brother wanted a SNES but she refused since it couldn't play the Master System games we owned. Seems like a different world tbh!

That's really nice, up there with the MGS5 one they released.
Re: They're Using Awful Final Fantasy XIII Characters to Sell Cars Now
Yeah, I work in marketing and can confirm the latest trend is using bland cardboard to sell products.
Re: What Even Is Sonic Forces At This Point?
@Quintumply They did the script to COlors which was really good, but yeah, this is pretty corny.

Re: Telltale Hints That The Wolf Among Us Rumours Are Fairytales
@themcnoisy Season 3 used a new engine though, didn't it?
Any way, shame. Wolf Among Us was probably the best Nu-Age Telltale outside TWD S1.
Re: Dragon Ball FighterZ Throws Piccolo and Krillin into the Playable Character Mix
@ShogunRok @shonenjump86 Pretty sure the only character who doesn't die in the series is Hercule.
Re: Dragon Ball FighterZ Throws Piccolo and Krillin into the Playable Character Mix
Piccolo, Frieza, and Cell will be my team, if I get in the beta. Can't waiiiit!

Re: Tekken 7's First Guest DLC Character Is Geese Howard From Fatal Fury, King of Fighters
Wow I love Bad Dads: The Game
Re: Street Fighter V's New Challenger Could Crush Cars with His Arms
As dumb as he looks his attacks look great, I love how he throws people around with such little effort like you would a coat.
Still better than the MvCI reveals that didn't even get a trailer...
Re: Review: Minecraft: Story Mode Season Two - Episode 1: Hero in Residence (PS4)

@Feena Sweet! Hard to believe just a few years ago people considered it completely dead.

Nice to see MvC3 is back at the fore, PS4 release must have helped.

Re: Why Didn't Sony Show Any Indie Games at E3 2017?
Despite Jim Ryan seemingly attempting to evolve into a being with his foot fused to his mouth, I can't fault him here.

Scarlet Spider with the 90s hoodie, Spider-Carnage, the Noir one with the full trench, and the Spider armor from the 90s cartoon. I mean, there are tons of great Spider-Man costumes though. It's kind of hard to mess that up.
