Greetings, good people. Congratulations, we almost made it through the winter. (Looks at the piles of snow higher than my window outside) Almost...
Now onto the games, I'm sure many of you enjoy new Resident Evil while I wait for my physical copy. But even if I got it yesterday, I would still be playing WitchSpring R until I finish it. I mean, I heard it's good, but words won't do it justice. The game introduces you to the most charming, innocent, best daughter in the whole world... and then makes her life miserable very step of the way. Seriously, if in the end Pieberry won't find happiness, I swear I'll <redacted>. Ok, deep breaths...
And I also got true ending in MIO: Memories in Orbit. Very engaging, charming and beautiful metroidvania. Yeah, it's no Silksong. But what is? What's more surprising, that according to the achievements, only 3% of the players finished the game and 2% got the second ending. What is wrong with you people?!
Alright, that's all for today. Love each other and have a great weekend.
Not going to vote, cause I will play it not "at some point", but as soon as my physical copy arrives, which is Monday or Tuesday. I could play it right now, of course, but I really want the disc.
So many adult (?) people would rather chop off their own hand than take responsibility for their own spendings. What if I told you that you can enjoy gacha game for years without spending a penny?
@1UP-HUSKY well, forgive me for caring more about the studio ability to make more games that I like over Sony's profits. It may be good for Playstation, but not for you and me.
I liked the first game and will get the second, but I hope that bigger budget and publisher involvement won't come with usual caveats. (It probably will)
I was severely disappointed with Spider-Man 2 and Solar Crown, but I'm pretty happy with Neva and both Monhun Stories games. That's three games more than the usual month. Premium continues to be an embarrassment.
That's not a remake. It's a butchered version that retconned the ending, cut sheetload of content and added nothing substantial to show for it. I used to adore the series, but after 8, pirate fanfic and this it's dead to me.
@AdamNovice >A Remedy developer said recenty that they made Firebreak because they wanted to expand their audience beyond those that just play cinematic single player games, this is the same thing.
After being extremely disappointed with Mario Kart World, I bought Crossworlds, and now I deeply regret it. I was able to play online for one week, but then my adorable government tried to block vpn yet again. Vpn still works of course, but the online in Sonic Crossworlds, GBF Versus Rising and who knows where else doesn't.
I already dropped it. I liked the visuals and battle system, but as a tradition of gacha games, any challenge exists only in endgame. And the endgame is locked behind hundreds of menus, thousands of types of resources and months of busywork. I'm fine with ZZZ being my only gacha.
Xbox direct was great, getting half of the shown games day one is more than I can say about any show. That said, I'm not touching Fable and ugly multiplayer only game even if you pay me.

Re: Hands On: Marathon Is Dense, Demanding, and Drop Dead Gorgeous
Sorry, but those screenshots look like polar opposite of gorgeous.

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for March 2026 Announced
Rise without Sunbreak is apple pie without apples.
Re: If This Marathon Trailer Doesn't Get You Hyped for the PS5 FPS, Nothing Will
This could be the best game in it's genre, I still won't spend a minute on it.
Re: Don't Worry, Team Ninja Split Doesn't Impact Nioh, Ninja Gaiden, Dead or Alive Dev
I'm not worried at all. I like Ninja Gaiden and Nioh, but Atelier is my love.
Re: 'No Second Chances': Marathon Cheaters Will Be Banned Forever, Bungie Says
When I read the first part of the headline, I thought it was not about cheaters, but the game itself.

Kiwami means castrate.
Re: Genshin Impact Anime Reappears After Years in the Wilderness
@rachetmarvel they are. But how many decades ago was that?
Re: Genshin Impact Anime Reappears After Years in the Wilderness
Poor Ufotable. Their art is great, but they are stuck with Nasu's crappy literature and game openings.

Re: Phil Spencer Stepping Down, Sarah Bond Leaving Microsoft in Huge Xbox Shake-Up
It should have been Herman, not Phil!
Re: Sony Goes Silent on Social Media as Fans Turn Feral Following Bluepoint Closure
And yet there were many people on this very site who said that Sony should acquire Kena's studio. Ready to eat your words now?

@djlard maybe it's time to start?
Re: Resident Evil Requiem PS5 Spoilers Are Starting to Circulate, So Be Safe Out There
I have to wait until March 4 at least for a physical copy. Evasive maneuvers!

Oh sheeeet! That was definitely not something I expected. I absolutely adore Sign and G.U., please please be good.

Hate the man all you want, but he is definitely right about Ninja Gaiden, Shinobi and Blasphemous looking better and costing less.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined?
It's long JRPG, but we want people to vote before anyone got the chance to finish it. And people will do just that.

Re: No More Yakuza Kiwami Games After Kiwami 3 Story Changes, New Series Could Happen
@Fizza I liked Ichiban in 7, but 8 reduced him from the protagonist to dumb comic relief.
Re: Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties (PS5) - Colossal, Confident Remake Makes Controversial Changes

And it surely ended well, didn't it?
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's New Cheats Revealed, Should Come to PS5
When every reward is participation award, do awards still have any meaning?
Re: Poll: Vote for Your PS5 Game of the Month (January 2026)
Very unpopular opinion, but I really enjoyed Vode Vein 2. New Trails too, but I still haven't finished it, so I can't vote for it.
Re: Trails, Ys Dev's New Action RPG Kyoto Xanadu Slashes to PS5 This Summer
Best announcement today. Probably will buy it on Switch 2, this game looks perfect for handheld.
Re: Xbox's Obsidian Seemingly Kills The Outer Worlds, Third Game Not Planned
Fallout New Vegas was peak, but since then Obsidian hasn't made a single good game, and at this point probably never will.

Re: Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Initial Sales Didn't Meet SEGA's Expectations
After being extremely disappointed with Mario Kart World, I bought Crossworlds, and now I deeply regret it.

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for February 2026?
Yes, Ace Combat 7 is a good game. Yes, it's been on sale for a price lower than a month of ps plus numerous times.

Re: Code Vein 2 (PS5) - Repetitive Vampiric Soulslike May Still Sate Your Bloodlust
Poor narrative, bland character designs, sloppy hit detection, uninspired locations... Yeah, Elden Ring has it all. Already pre-ordered Code Vein 2.

Marvel, Marvel, roguelike, multiplayer, multiplayer. Well, happy for people who like thise, I guess.

Re: PS Plus Essential Game for February 2026 Leaked
If that's the "biggest" title, I'm scared to think what shovelware two others will be.
