Might be the best SoP of the entire Gen and it felt more like a showcase then a usual SoP. That GoW Remake reveal with the OG Kratos himself had my jaw dropped.
@graymamba You understand this is pretty much the norm for big Hollwood films right? They cast popular actors. Were they using AI when John Wayne and Charlton Heston were cast in everything? Harrison Ford? Cary Grant? Steve McQueen?
@Simu001 If you focus on the open field stuff to level up and then do the story stuff it becomes much easier. Its actually very easy to over level and steamroll a lot of the early stage bosses.
My guess is Marathon and Saros will be the big highlights. RE Requiem will see a reveal of a bonus mode. Some Plus updates and the rest will be 3rd party stuff and maybe a reveal of a new MS port like Starfield or something.
@Balaam_ Dude stop fear mongering that's not how it works. There's a big reason why when games are removed from storefronts they don't remove them from those who have already bought them and its because it opens up a whole load of can of worms they really don't want.
Its the art style that kills my interest. If they kept the art style of the main games i might be more interested but yeah Fortnite lite kills any interest i could have.
@PuppetMaster Wouldn't complain at a new character though as i love Miary Zo and think they done a great job with her, been maining her since she dropped.
@slabula Less then 10K numbers on the weekend a few days after its release for a F2P shooter is appalling. I will be shocked if this game is still around by the end of the year.
@AhmadSumadi Guess you haven't seen The Princess Bride? Its Mandy's most iconic role and his most famous line from it is "My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die”.
Its a really good film and i highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it, it also has some of the best sword fights in film.
I actually ended up buying the game in the end thanks to a YT video. Its a technical mess even on Pro, combat is pretty bad, RPG stuff is barebones and barely exists and the city is so small but i ended up loving it largely down to the story, characters and atmosphere. It actually made my top 10 of last year because of this even if objectively its a mess.
@StitchJones Nah its more she's the best writing female love interest in the series and after you romanced her she still exists, she makes you stuff, you can talk to her and go on dates. Katherine might have more to do in the main story of KC2 and she obviously has her
looks (thanks to her stunning face model she's based on) but as a love interest she's pretty weak and it feels like you only pick her for um two big reasons you know will be revealed in a love scene 😂😂😂 Theresa just feels like Henry's true love rather then a fling that won't go anyway once reality sets in. Finally you actually play as Theresa in a pretty lengthy DLC so you the player feel more connected to her because of that.
@themightyant If it costs i might not bother as i only finished it a couple of years back. I have no urge to replay it any time soon so it would very much be play for a few hours to check out the upgrades and then put on the HDD until i decide to replay it later down the line.
@KillerBoy Giving SB got great reviews with nearly all not caring about Eve's design you're just making up stuff there. IGN France was pretty much the only one to kick up a fuss over Eve.
Is he trying to speedrun Larian's rep into the ground? Yes you made a great game it doesn't make you the ultimate white knight of gaming especially when its been coming out you're far from his saint you pretend to be.

So pumped my girl Magik made it in.
Re: God of War Trilogy Remake Announced for PS5
I'm so hyped for this. My jaw dropped when they revealed it.

Re: AAA John Wick Game Announced for PS5
Yeah 😁😁😁 Hyped as hell.
Re: MGS Master Collection Volume 2 PS5 Announced, Metal Gear Solid 4 Is Free of PS3 Jail
Finally after all this time.
Re: Kena: Scars of Kosmora a Bigger and Better PS5 Sequel, Out in 2026
Fantastic reveal and one i didn't see coming. First game is excellent.
Re: Of Course Jason Momoa Stars in the Helldivers Movie, Out November 2027
@Oram77 First film made over a billion. Also are you really going to downplay Dune and Stargate?
Re: Crimson Desert PS5 Is Also a Full-On Life Sim Game, Last Deep Dive Video Reveals
@Oram77 Also whether you like the game or not AC Shadows has one of the biggest Pro upgrades out there with RTGI at 60fps.
Re: Crimson Desert PS5 Is Also a Full-On Life Sim Game, Last Deep Dive Video Reveals
Would love some actual PS5 footage.

Re: Of Course Jason Momoa Stars in the Helldivers Movie, Out November 2027
@Oram77 Yes because Stargate, Aquaman and Dune don't exist.
Re: Rumour: 'Most' of Highguard's Dev Team Laid Off Just Two Weeks After Live Service Shooter's Launch
Geoff really screwed these guys over. That said the game isn't good enough regardless.
Re: Jaw-Dropping Black Myth Sequel Effectively Confirmed for PS5
@StitchJones Not according to this article.
Re: No Man's Sky Gets a Gravity Gun in Its Latest Game-Changing Update on PS5, PS4
@Oram77 I don't think that will happen. Sean has been saying a lot of the newer systems added to NMS is stuff from LNF.
My bet is LNF will be out next year. I think Sean and his team wanted NMS to reach 10 years of updates so i suspect this year will be focused on that.
Re: No Man's Sky Gets a Gravity Gun in Its Latest Game-Changing Update on PS5, PS4
@MFTWrecks Building is pretty fine imo. Its pretty basic and doesn't require much skill.
Re: No Man's Sky Gets a Gravity Gun in Its Latest Game-Changing Update on PS5, PS4
@Oram77 Let them cook we don't want another NMS style launch.
Re: PS5's Wolverine Won't Be at This Week's State of Play
Never expected it anyway.
Re: Jaw-Dropping Black Myth Sequel Effectively Confirmed for PS5
Footage captured on a high end PC so expect PS5 to be using very low PC settings and faking 60fps.
Re: Sony's PS5 Fighter Marvel Tokon Confirms 20 Characters at Launch, Single Player 'Episode' Mode
@PuppetMaster Then don't do 4v4 if you can't make a roster big enough to handle it.
Re: Sony's PS5 Fighter Marvel Tokon Confirms 20 Characters at Launch, Single Player 'Episode' Mode
@Oram77 Those are 1v1 fighters not 4v4. A 4v4 fighter needs a larger roster because you're no longer picking 1 out of 20 you're picking 4 out of 20.
Re: Sony's PS5 Fighter Marvel Tokon Confirms 20 Characters at Launch, Single Player 'Episode' Mode
A 4v4 fighter with 20 characters is no where near enough, this should be near 30.
Re: Nioh 3's Bosses Took a Lot of Inspiration from Lies of P, Says Director
@Simu001 If you focus on the open field stuff to level up and then do the story stuff it becomes much easier. Its actually very easy to over level and steamroll a lot of the early stage bosses.
Re: PS5's First State of Play of 2026 Tipped for Later This Week
My guess is Marathon and Saros will be the big highlights. RE Requiem will see a reveal of a bonus mode. Some Plus updates and the rest will be 3rd party stuff and maybe a reveal of a new MS port like Starfield or something.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 619
Nioh 3 for me. So far its been excellent.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Permanently Cheaper on PS5 from Next Week
@Scottyy You can contact Sony and ask them to remove the Plus game from your library. Its a hassle but its a legit way to get round this.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Permanently Cheaper on PS5 from Next Week

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's New Cheats Revealed, Should Come to PS5
Might use these to Platinum it.
Re: Poll: What's Your Reaction to Horizon Hunters Gathering?
Its the art style that kills my interest. If they kept the art style of the main games i might be more interested but yeah Fortnite lite kills any interest i could have.
Re: Digimon Story Time Stranger Confirms 60FPS Performance Mode Coming to PS5
Giving how basic it all is the game should have had a 60fps mode from the start.
Re: Launch-Aligned, Ghost of Yotei PS5 Is Selling Better Than Tsushima
Great to see as its a fantastic game.
Re: Xbox's Obsidian Seemingly Kills The Outer Worlds, Third Game Not Planned
Shame as The Outer Worlds 2 is excellent.
Re: You'll Want to Play Crimson Desert on PS5 Pro for Dedicated Enhancements
@SodaPop6548 KC2 doesn't run well on console. Once you hit that 2nd map performance drops a lot and loading gets far longer.
Re: 'We've Got Much More in Store': Legendary DOOM Developer id Software Celebrates 35th Anniversary
Well the expansion has yet to drop so i expect that will be the big thing Doom related this year to celebrate the anniversary.
Re: Tekken 8 Season 3 Gameplay Balance Goes 'Back to Basics' as Kunimitsu, Bob, and Roger Return
@LikelySatan I guess you never liked fighting games then?
Re: Tekken 8 Season 3 Gameplay Balance Goes 'Back to Basics' as Kunimitsu, Bob, and Roger Return
@PuppetMaster Wouldn't complain at a new character though as i love Miary Zo and think they done a great job with her, been maining her since she dropped.
Re: Tekken 8 Season 3 Gameplay Balance Goes 'Back to Basics' as Kunimitsu, Bob, and Roger Return
@PuppetMaster The mystery character is either a guest or brand new character.
Re: Tekken 8 Season 3 Gameplay Balance Goes 'Back to Basics' as Kunimitsu, Bob, and Roger Return
@FxTANK Characters take time to make.
Re: Tekken 8 Season 3 Gameplay Balance Goes 'Back to Basics' as Kunimitsu, Bob, and Roger Return
Sounds good to me and those 3 returning characters are very welcome. Still my main fighter despite S2 shortcomings.
Re: Highguard Already Trying Something Different as Player Numbers Plummet
@slabula Less then 10K numbers on the weekend a few days after its release for a F2P shooter is appalling. I will be shocked if this game is still around by the end of the year.

Mandy Patinkin is a very solid choice but is Kratos prepared to die?
