Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 624

CrispyMango92

I’m playing the “I have to work this weekend” game. :’) But I’ll probably have my partner play Pokopia tonight while I watch since I bought it for us to play and we played all of 5 mins so far. As for what I want to play, I don’t know. I finished RE9 a few days ago, incredible game and it looked unbelievable on my Pro. I might continue one of the 15 games I’ve started in the last 2 years. Maybe A Space for the Unbound? I really liked what I played of it but to get the true ending, you have to do the worst mini games imaginable and that’s why I put it on hold. Also, I made a howlongtobeat account recently and it hurts seeing my backlog. I don’t think I’ll finish all the games I have before I leave this earth in 40+ years.

Re: More God of War PS5 Details Leak, Out in 2027 with New Protagonist

Insert but why Ryan Reynolds gif.

I love the Norse GOW games but this seems like such a weird choice. I was hoping for a new IP. An entire game based on a character that is dead is just not appealing to me. I hate when characters that die get their own story after. But ultimately, it’s Cory working on it and odds are I’ll get it day one (depending on how it looks altogether). But at this moment, I’m just completely underwhelmed at this news. By the time this releases, Cory has spent 9 years on it? Insane.

I started Dying Light 2 earlier in the week and as of last night, deleted it. What an awful game. I really enjoyed the first one when it came out a decade(!) ago. I remember people were generally not big on this game but I bought it on sale when The Beast was announced because you got The Beast free if you had the ultimate edition. I try to finish games that I buy, unless I absolutely don’t like the first hour. I put 24 hours into this game hoping it’d get better but it didn’t. A YouTube comment said it best. “Dying light felt like a game made with love. Dying light 2 feels like Ubisoft made it.”

After deleting it, I booted up The Beast and it’s already way better than DL2. It also looks pretty damn good and the gore is insane. Also, I don’t have to spend 10 hours just to unlock sliding or other basic parkour moves! It’s great!

Re: New Kingdom Come: Deliverance PS5 Version Seems Real in PS Store Leak

CrispyMango92

“the PS4 version, where it runs at 30 frames-per-second“

I don’t think that game hits 30. I hope this is an update and not a new edition to buy. This should be a free update with how poor the game runs. I remember trying it on Extra and the frame rate was so low I immediately stopped after stepping outside the house. I’ll definitely give it another go With this update since I bought the ultimate edition for $10.

Re: PS3 Game Streaming Still Broken and Sony Draws Criticism

CrispyMango92

Something is broken on PlayStation and Sony hasn’t addressed it? I’m shocked!

@LiamCroft Has anyone in the team experienced a broken game library? I realized all my games that were hidden are no longer hidden and when you hide them, they don’t stay hidden once you leave the library. I don’t know if it’s a widespread issue but according to a Reddit post I saw when I googled the issue, someone had posted about it last week.

Re: 9 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for December 2025 Announced

CrispyMango92

@CorporateZombi PSVR2 got the typical Sony treatment of “we didn’t do enough to make this accessory successful so let’s kill all support for it!” Really disappointed they took all those games down. I got premium to play them but with not enough time in life, I never got the chance. Wasted my money getting premium.

Re: The Possibility of Ghost of Yotei DLC Could Be Down to You

CrispyMango92

Nah. PS Studios expansions while nice, take way too long to develop. By the time they come out, I’ve been long done with the game and it’s so confusing trying to figure out all the mechanics again so I just get whooped for a while. I’d rather they start working on a new inFamous or IP.

Re: PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for October 2025 on PS5, PS4 Leaked

CrispyMango92

Never played a Silent Hill game and never pulled the trigger on this one because the Pro issues so this’ll be a good test to see if I click with these games. Also never pulled the trigger on Until Dawn because it never hit a sale price I would buy it at so this is good news for me. It’s my favorite horror game so I’m excited to play it again.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Ghost of Yotei?

CrispyMango92

@REALAIS I have definitely kept it running while cooking, cleaning, spending time with gf, etc so I def have way less hours played than it says haha. But I think they might have finally fixed the hours played across the board? Yesterday it was 27 hours on the app, in my profile, and within the game base itself. Usually the profile and game base hours were different by a large margin. Interesting!

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Ghost of Yotei?

CrispyMango92

So far it’s an 8. I’m like 20 hours in (27 according to the PS app but I don’t trust that) but only beat the Oni so far. I’m loving it, especially the exploration. It doesn’t feel like busy work like Tsushima did. Everything feels natural. I think the only thing I can knock it for is the difficulty and lock in camera. I started on hard and the bosses were ridiculous with how they spam blue/red attacks so I dropped it to medium. The lock in camera has been a huge hassle so I don’t even use it. I lock onto enemies and it’ll just randomly turn and mess me up. Trying to move the lock to different enemies is also just awful.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Ghost of Yotei?

CrispyMango92

@DennisReynolds I always agree with your points but I feel like you’re just wasting time by responding to the people like the person you’re responding to in this article. If they were serious about boycotting a company because of something an employee said, they’d have to boycott every company and go live like a hermit. But they won’t because it doesn’t fit the narrative they tell themselves in their head. Best thing to do is block and move on because you’ll get nothing but deflection and just talking in a circle. Save yourself the time as that’s the most valuable thing we have!

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Ghost of Yotei?

CrispyMango92

@Ravix good to know! I remember being impressed with the Spider-Man 2 CE so I can’t wait to open this up tonight and add that mask to my display case. Just hoping and praying it’s at my door and someone didn’t steal it before I get home. Only had packages disappear twice in the last 2 years but big, expensive packages like this always have me nervous. It’s worse today because I picked up overtime so I’ll be home even later! Anxiety is killing me!

Re: This Exciting PS5 Single Player Game Is Not Resident Evil, But It Sure Looks Like It

CrispyMango92

“ looks like it could be pushing Sony’s system hard.”

What about it makes you think that? Graphically doesn't look anywhere near as good as anything out these days and the animations all looked weird. Like the characters are moving like they do but their muscles are stiff or something. It doesn’t seem natural. I have a feeling this will be one of those super janky games that just doesn’t pull off what it sets out to do.

Re: Ghost of Yotei's State of Play Has Been Watched More Than Sony's Summer Showcase

CrispyMango92

@Rich33 I think that hits the nail on the head. I’ve stopped watching any kind of showcase. I keep my expectations in check but still usually end up kinda disappointed. But that’s the name of the game these days. Games take longer than ever now. I just watch the separate trailers after. Time is limited so watching a livestream that you can’t fast forward makes no sense. My friends are the same.

Re: Best inFAMOUS Games

CrispyMango92

Damn you all! I saw this article and immediately thought a remaster or new game was announced, immediately scrolling down. Why must you hurt me so?

On topic, I’d swap First Light with Festival of Blood and inFamous 1 with 2.

Re: 'I Feel Like a Total Fraud': Actor Charlie Cox Reflects on Expedition 33 Success

CrispyMango92

Haven’t played it yet but I did not know he was the main character, or in the game for that matter. I thought Ben Starr was the main character. Anywho, he’s a great actor and I met him once while doing delivery jobs here in NYC like 10 years ago. It was right after the first Daredevil season. I told him I was a big fan and he shook my hand. He was really nice. Glad he’s back as The Devil of Hells Kitchen.

Re: Death Stranding 2 (PS5) - A Masterpiece in Every Sense

CrispyMango92

I put like 40 hours into DS1 before I burned out and never went back because I knew I would have to restart it after taking so much time off. Then the PS5 version came out with new content and I knew I’d definitely have to restart it. So I finally did just that over the weekend. Mainly to show my gf how weird the intro is but ended up putting like 10 hours into it. I didn’t mean to but alas, here we are. I’ll probably end up buying the CE for this when I beat DS1 sometime this summer. I’ve really not seen much besides one or two trailers for this so I’m excited to go in blind when I get to it. But man, I’m so behind on games. I have to try and finish Returnal sometime before Saros comes out.

Re: Sony Approves MindsEye PS5 Refunds as Dev Issues 'Sincere Apology'

CrispyMango92

I heard that shadowy figure paying people for negative press also paid the dev team to release a horrible game. Oh the horror!!!

Edit: I’m surprised no one has mentioned that IOI is attached to this as a publisher. Were they not aware of the state of the game? We need a deep dive report on everything going on during the development of this game.

Re: Everyone's Talking About Body Horror Game ILL for PS5, Apparently

CrispyMango92

I saw clips of this on YouTube many years ago so when my friend told me they were showing some game called Ill yesterday, I was shocked. Every time a new clip dropped, it always looked insane but pretty much everyone thought it wasn’t a real game. To see Mundfish is publishing, which means this is actually a real game is so weird after so many years.
