@Kidfunkadelic83 I'm saving myself for the articles regarding MindsEye updates.
@Northern_munkey I'm a casual arcade racer guy so I don't use the wheel. I also looked up NFS Unbound and it didn't resonate with me since I'm more of an old school NFS guy who likes a darker, gritty tone with a banging soundtrack. All in all, it's good that we have different tastes so there is enough variety in gaming and general.
In all seriousness, this is a great racing game which I enjoyed so much I've actually platinumed it. If anyone has an itch for a good NFS title, then here is the one for you. Although it was awarded a 7 at the time of release, for me it is a 8.5 for today's standards and due to a shortage of arcade racing with cops type of titles.
@Ellie-Moo Haha, me too. I always aks the sellers is the cover in English if I'm uncertain or there are no images for the used game I'm trying to buy. I'm glad I'm not the only one being picky about inlays.
@PerpetualBoredom Preach, my brother! I've looked on PlayAsia and VideoGamesPlus but there is no sign of a physical PS4/5 version, there is only a Nintendo Switch one. I'm afraid there will be none except Limited Run Games gives us one of their infamous overpriced fake FoMo prints.
First I will buy NBA 2k25 to get a 10% discount for the NBA 2K26 Leave No Doubt Edition which costs only 149$. Then I can play the game one week before everyone else, those other perks don't interest me.
I'm glad that the physical version doesn't contain the full game on disc so all owners must have internet connection to download it and inevitably obtain this platinum trophy fix.
Also, did people here know that Vivi is named based on his height? VI VI = 6 6 (There is a prequel novel showing master Quan measuring Vivi and writing roman numerals VI VI on the wall next to him)
@yazzika One would think I'm getting paid to do this, but I'm just a guy who wants to bring a laugh by pointing out everything wrong with the gaming industry nowadays. Although if the staff here would give me something like a MindsEye review code, I would give it the score it really deserves.
And thanks for the compliment, I appreciate it 😎
@PuppetMaster Will certainly enjoy it, mate, but first I have to finish the expedition as soon as I finish my crunch at the daily job. So many good games, so little time.
@SuperSilverback Thanks, I saw Zestiria being sold on a local listing and I didn't know it was connected to Berseria. I went with Vesperia instead, the characters were appealing to me and I recall people saying it is a good title.
Genuine question here since I will plunge in the series at some point: which tales games are considered top tier and recommendable for a newcomer? I would go with Vesperia as it is available on the PS4?
I think the Premium tier gives people the greatest bang for their buck because Sony delivered on its promise of porting most of its retro titles and who doesn't want to have exclusive access to demos.

Maybe a new game will be released if Naughty Dog does a "180 switch" with this board.
Re: Xbox and Arkane's Blade Game Sounds Like It's Still a Long, Long Way Off
They still have enough time to steer the production in live service territory in order to improve the experience.

Since there is a shortage of live service titles, I hope Vinit Agarwal uses his passion for online games to turn that around.
Re: PS4 Firmware Update 12.52 Out Now, Features 'Security Fixes'
This is a welcome update because I felt really insecure while using my PS4.
Re: Naughty Dog's Neil Druckmann Has an Intergalactic LEGO Set, And So Could You
@Oram77 And since there is no remake, FF nein/no is a fitting name
Re: Naughty Dog's Neil Druckmann Has an Intergalactic LEGO Set, And So Could You
@Oram77 Did someone say FF9 remake? 🤡🤡

Re: Tekken 8 Fans in Tears of Laughter Over Low Effort Atelier Yumia Collab
@djlard Exactly. Even though it's not as refined as the other newer entries but for me and my mates Tekken 3 is the best and most fun of them all.
Re: Game of the Month: Death Stranding 2 (June 2025)
@PuppetMaster I actually don't know, but that question is both philosophical and interesting. One would say it is a really physint question.
Re: Final Fantasy 9 Celebrates 25th Anniversary, But the Rumoured Remake Is Nowhere to Be Seen
@Oram77 You have to write your comment like this: (img)url_to_your_image(/img)
Now instead of ( and ), you need to use square brackets [ and ]
And the url to your image you get usually by right clicking on an image in some website and selecting "Copy image address/link/url"

@JVCIOM70 Congratulations! Getting the first platinum trophy is something special and when it's on MindsEye then there is also something poetic to it.

@Jeanniegold you are right, I made a mistake since I don't use feet and inches. I will edit my post, thanks!
Re: Stunning Final Fantasy 9 Artwork Revealed as Rumoured Remake Date Fast Approaches
@Oram77 The "13" part is deciphered, but the "Red" part remains the real mistery here. Must be an acronym.
Re: Random: Kojima Hyped to See Fan Playing Death Stranding 2 on PS Portal at London Launch Event
I also enjoy playing games while attending conferences I'm interested in.

Re: What the Hell Has Happened to Call of Duty?
I would make fun of this in a sarcastic way but I won't because there is a difference between CoD and me: I have some standards.

Re: Ghost of Yotei's Pricey $250 PS5 Collector's Edition Is for the Hardcore Fans Only
There is no physical disc, no steelbook, no artbook, no physical soundtrack: this is essentially a goodie box with a digital game.
