Re: Game of the Year: #5 - Balatro

I get that this is a great game by a single person but placing it higher than games which took years and years to make which look and sound stunning with full voice casts and soundtracks etc is pretty crazy

Re: Watch Your Back, Troy, Ben Starr's Back in Another Leading Role

Corc11

Good for Ben Starr! Seems a really likable person too which is always nice when they're doing well. Only thing that remains to be seen with Ben is his versatility. Troy can do a whole bunch of different roles really well. Hopefully Ben can without everyone just hearing Clive in his performances.

Re: Ex-PlayStation Boss Thinks the Days of Consoles Are Numbered

Corc11

Some people want to just switch on and play, have their hardware auto-updated and not have to worry about much. For that reasons consoles won't go anywhere. Children too, you couldn't just buy a young kid a PC and expect him to know what to do with it to get gaming. It doesn't work like that.

Re: My First Gran Turismo Has Been Rated for Release on PS5, PS4

Corc11

When I was a kid I pumped so so many hours into the first few Gran Turismo's so I naturally bought GT7 on release day. I probably played it for around 12 hours and I just quit cold turkey. Not sure if it's because I have less free time these days or what but I found it super repetitive and couldn't get into it all

Re: The Game Awards Host Geoff Keighley and Parody Site Hard Drive Are Beefing

Corc11

Geoff does come across as a bit of a bore to me in the sense that he takes everything way too seriously. When he laughs at stuff at his shows it seems forced, and during the sesame street sketches he does he is literally miming all of the words everybody is saying which takes the spontaneity out of it. When funny unscripted stuff happens which isn't pre-planned you can see the annoyance and anger in his eyes. He needs to chill.

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth 'Hugely Improved' on PS5 Pro, a 'Night and Day' Difference

Corc11

Honestly, Rebirth post-patch looked fine in performance mode. Yeah, maybe I have an untrained eye. If so, thank God. If it means I can enjoy games without having to spend 700 quid on slightly better graphics then I'm happy.

And before people pitch in with the "It's much better graphics, not slightly!", I've been here since the Sega Megadrive and seen graphics progress. Trust me, the difference is slight.
