I'd also like to give a shoutout to John at Digital Foundry for doing a great comparison between the OG, the remaster and the remake and how he highlights just how good the remake looks. He also talked about how the dev team remedied some of the issues that were present in Halo Infinite with the remake. Great stuff all around.
I still remember playing the original Halo on my older brother's PC years and years ago. Glad to see the remake is great. Could care less about the lack of dualsense features since I plan on playing keyboard and mouse on PC lol.
Really cool to see Meccha Chameleon selling really well, it's genuinely a fun game to play with friends and it's only $6. Last I checked the game sold about 15 million copies which is crazy.
On one hand it's always good to see games receive ports onto modern consoles, especially those from the PS3/360 era of consoles. But on the other, I'm not surprised one bit that a barebones CoD port is raking in cash for Activision.
But hey, if people want to buy it, it's their money.
I tried ZZZ for the first time a few weeks ago and I like it. The cutscenes are animated beautifully and the combat is fun. Never played a gacha prior to it lol.
Thing is, why would Martin lie about the number of remaining employees? He's always been straight forward about things to people. If the number of employees is the same as the Doom 2016 team, then they can still make games.
Really cool to see that RPCS3 has 3/4 of the library compatible. I recently saw some really cool lighting rework mods for Demon Souls that make the game look great without changing the art style, and there's even private servers for the game to give it that authentic feel.
Sony are idiots, as we know, but support the indie devs that are releasing their games after years of hard work. If not on the PS Store, then either on the Nintendo Store, Xbox Store or Steam/GoG. Hell if they're releasing physical, buy that instead.
Okay that Clank suit is actually pretty adorable lol.
I kinda wish this would've also been released on PS5/PC instead of just being mobile cause I really detest playing games on a phone. But hey, at least it's more Ratchet content.
@Robinsad It'll be like that old Thinkgeek item that would laser project a keyboard onto a table and you'd tap the table where the keys would be. I remember it looking like a cool novelty item but the reviews said it wasn't very good lol.
Been a long time since I've played Halo. I think the last Halo I played on release was either 3 or ODST. But I'm looking forward to the game, and I hope anyone that never played a Halo will enjoy it.
@AhmadSumadi If you go to the microtransaction store of a game with your controller in one hand and your wallet in the other and the clock strikes midnight, scary shadow hands come out of the screen and grab the controller and your wallet and buy all of the microtransactions, leaving you in mountains of debt.
@Banjo- I think I do remember people saying the traversal was a big plus for Syndicate. I kinda remember the game having a really cool grappling hook that Ubisoft implemented.
@Banjo- Syndicate is actually the one classic era AC game that I never played but I definitely need to. I always thought the London setting was really cool.
I do want to pick this up cause I enjoyed Black Flag, but it's also making me want to play Origins again since Origins is my favorite in the series lol.
@The_Hooligan No problem. If Sony wants to stick to their guns on going all digital, then I feel a positive change would be to modify a few things in regards to their store to better accommodate the customers and ease their worries about ownership. We'll see what happens!
1. It comes down to terms of service. I don't want to start the whole console/PC debate that happens all the damn time on this site, but Sony's ToS allows them to remove a game from a person's library at any given time while most PC storefront's ToS doesn't. Also PC's storefronts have a much better DRM policy.
2. On PC, yes, you can still download and play a game that's offline or removed from the storefront. Second part, it's like a kinddaaaa cause you can still buy a key for the game and redeem it and own it which is still perfectly legal, but usually when games are removed or delisted, they're not allowed to be sold.
3. A lot of people like it cause you have sites like Fanatical and Humble Bundle that price games competitively to give customers the best deal on Steam/GoG games, while the PS Store is kinda like a closed ecosystem where you can't really shop around for deals unless you wait for a sale. Also Steam has tons of sales on games all the time as well.
4. Probably but I feel I'm not the best person to answer this question cause I don't know EVERYTHING with regards to Sony's store, only Steam due to me buying a majority of my Playstation games physical.

Re: Sony Also Taking Pelters for Locking Crunchyroll's Store Behind a Subscription

Re: PS5's Physical Disc Debacle Will Attract More Anger if This Xbox Rumour Is True
It's a step in the right direction I feel. A way to digitize a physical collection is a good idea and I give Xbox credit for implementing it.
Also Project Positron sounds like it's from Ratchet and Clank lol
