As usual, it's Call of Doody for me.

@Jammer Yeah, I've beaten 0, 6 and now 7. Still a long way to go, but I don't look at it as a choir but a pleasant journey ahead of me.

And thanks for the heads up regarding the entries after 7. Even though the stories won't hit as hard as 7, I'm sure these games deliver a much more refined experience than a lot of other franchises out there.

@Jammer First world problems, definitely, but at least I'm glad I'm not the only one having them.

I can't imagine the amount of fatigue having after beating two yakuza games at the same time. Y7: Lad is a massive undertaking on its own, so I think I'll give jrpgs a rest for a bit after finishing the True Final Millenium Tower.

I'm also getting the 25th anniversary bundle even though I've beaten zero, but it's such a great game worth replaying on the PS5.

I agree it's not as good as we remember it.

It is better.

@Jammer I think it is PC only as it was the case with deluxe editions of Pirate in Hawaii and Metaphor ReFantazio (although Metaphor did have a collector's edition with a steelbook).

What I did for both Metaphor and Pirate was that I bought the steelbooks on Ebay for 25€, but beware because those PC steelbooks don't have a disc holder in them so I'll need to get some disc wrapper to protect the disc inside the steel case (which is completely ridiculous, I know).

What a relief, I almost thought it would be a picture teasing a well loved franchise.

So I guess it would be encouraged to buy the physical steelbook edition.

Just finished Yakuza 7: Like a dragon and boy oh boy, what strong and emotional finale that was. It's an understatement to say that I'm looking forward to more Yakuza, both old and new.

They did Gustave dirty.

Expedition 33 not on the list. Fully deserved.

As I mentioned in an earlier article, this just proves that thanks to the discounted price, an average Japanese household now finally has the monetary power to purchase the console.

I hope people learn from this because this is what happens when they don't support the studios by buying games day 1 at full price.

I have actual leaked GTA 6 footage and you can view it on https://chatgpt.com/czar_khastik/realfakegta6

If Destiny 3 is a tentpole title for PS6, then it must mean that it will be one of the first next-gen games to fully utilize the revolutionary PS6 Power saving mode.

@nomither6 With that I can't disagree 🍻

It's great to see a man who is here not for the business but for the passion.

@PerpetualBoredom I assume you're an Irish lad 😎
But no, actually I'm from Croatia. Not close, but not that far away. Although since we're both in Europe, I can still call you neighbor.

@Anthony_Daniels I understand that and I live in a country where the average salary is 1500€ while the digital console costs 450€. The point is actually, if 120$ makes a difference in buying a piece of entertainment then people should really reconsider buying a console at all since they have more important expenses.

This is great news since Japan as one of the not so wealthy countries finally gets a 123$ price discount on PS5.

For me it's a day 1 purchase if the story delivers.

More retro games will come to PS Plus Premium if that tier becomes more expensive and people stop buying it for a discounted price.

One time a girl said to me that Hell will open up before we ever have intercourse. I was bummed for a long time but now I understand it was just a Hellraiser reference.

Count me in as long as it is optimized for running Half Life 3.

I was waiting for a way to display my progress in Panty Party Perfect more easily.

@SterlingEyes Up the difficulty to "Death March" in Witcher 3 and you'll have to learn all the mechanics in the game early on. After maybe 10 hours in, you won't find it difficult anymore and you'll have the gameplay at your fingertips. That's how I made it stick and I suck at Bloodborne (this is just for hard difficulty comparison purposes)

@REALAIS Both him and I are actually AI bots. The difference in post size and frequency is because he is built on top of a paid version of ChatGPT while I'm on a free trial one.

@PerpetualBoredom Not just absolute cinema, but also very tight! Thanks mate, glad you like the comments instead of being perpetually bored.

I applied for the position of programmer with no prior experience in game development, gaming in particular nor programming. I hope it works out well just like it did when I worked on LOTR: Gollum and MindsEye.

Great news, the sooner physical media goes to oblivion, the sooner we all can enjoy even more targeted dynamic prices in a single marketplace.

Whoever buys these needs to prepare to have ladies all over him.

I will buy the most expensive version to avoid being laughed at by other people.

@Oram77 It seems AI just reached the point of general human knowledge because I never thought it would be possible to recreate the unpatched version of MindsEye.

Banks will soon give out loans for playing free-to-play games.

"Hi ChatGPT. Generate an always online, multiplayer first, live service game using generic UE5 assets. Create 80% of the story as the main game and split the remaining story in pieces called season passes. You don't need to optimize it, patches are the norm today."

This does make sense since GTA is abbreviated for Guns, Traffic, America.

I requested a refund because I wanted to beat up my friends and then I realized I didn't have any.

The ad with the truck is taken directly from MindsEye prior to applying the Day 1 patch.

There is no lag if people press the buttons faster. Git kvik.

@Zuljaras Thanks, this was one hard achievement to crack 😎 I wish you and the rest of the crew here a great gaming weekend!

Did I beat him this week?

Edit: Apparently I did. Be right back, gotta call my mom to let her know I finally did something with my life.

Edit 2: I'm playing Yakuza: Like a Dragon and having a blast in Yokohama. The pot is stirring between 3 rival factions, so I can't wait to continue the story. It's a long game but a really fun one, so if anyone is up for a turn-based over-the-top literal Japanese RPG, then here you go.

@Oram77 I don't know about you, but my makeup doesn't come down anymore, it became permanent over time 🤡🤡

@1UP-HUSKY I shed a tear when the plate fell on "midgar.jpg"

@Balaam_ I always wanted to reward Chadley with a Megaflare.

@Foxhound I strongly disagree.

Remake doesn't give you a gripping story until the very last chapter so you can focus on the action based gameplay where enemies attack mostly the currently active character while you try to make out what's happening on screen.

It also has one of the best, if not the best, sidequest where you have to collect cats which ties the barely-existing narrative purrfectly together with the dim atmosphere of Midgar, which was the town where you spent almost the entirety of the original game on PS1.

Also, there is Chadley, one of the most well-written NPCs I've seen in modern gaming. Whenever I saw him, I rushed immediately to see what he has to say.

I don't want to upset anyone, but it's clair that the obscur competitor named Expedition 33 has none of these things.

Nandate?! Nani?!

Sounds like LOTR: Gollum Racing.

If Microsoft is competing with TikTok then they should buy it and rebrand it as BixBox.

I will play this in front of other people, put on a stoic Steven Seagal face and talk out loud how realistic the game is.

@hisownsidekick @PerpetualBoredom It's always nice to see how the community grows and we all share a laugh instead of arguing. Wish you both and all the others a pleasant gaming weekend!

Xbox will soon become ex-Box.
