@KillerBoy Giving the size and scope of the game and the fact the devs are fighting a war while making the game its fair to say that would never happen. Be thankful it could be like the PS2 days where you screwed if bugs appeared.
@somnambulance We can't like everything. I remember when Skyfall released it was being called one of the best Bond films ever and that the villain in it is an all time great. Me? i thought Skyfall was awful, i thought Craig phoned it in and i thought the villain was a hammy Ledger Joker rip off. I'm clearly in the minority there but it is what it is.
@somnambulance I'm sure there's people that feel The Dark Knight is overrated, The Godfather is overrated, Empire Strikes Back is overrated, Red Dead 2 is overrated, Baldur's Gate 3 is overrated, Moby Dick is overrated, The Lord Of The Rings is overrated and so on and so on. Doesn't change the fact their all masterpieces and will outlive us all.
@Oram77 Look at this way it doesn't matter how good your performance is when you're in the same best acting category as Daniel Day Lewis for his performance in There Will Be Blood. She might be incredible in Silent Hills F but sadly she's up against Ben Starr and Jennifer English who gave the performance of their careers in E33.
The whole "redemption arc" trend of this Gen has been insanely annoying. Just because Hello Games and CDPR pulled it off doesn't mean it gives you the excuse to purposely do the same, they were meant to be exceptions not the new norm.
@BamBamBaklava89 I put it above DS2 myself but it was never getting a GOTY nom. Year is too stacked and Geoff will never have a Kojima game not in the running.
E33 sweeps for me other then best RPG what goes for KC2 for me. Hard to pick between Ben Starr and Jennifer English for best performance, both were incredible with Starr even converting me to a fan his now but i picked Jennifer English as her voice is spellbinding and enchanting.
@Questionable_Duck Both. The staff of PX are very questionable when it comes to Xbox and its why i rarely go on there. I remember getting banned for 2 days by them because i got into an argument with someone else on there, we both in the wrong but they got off scott free simply because they were on the side of Xbox.
@Snick27 So salty 😂 The games a hit deal with it. Most don't care about the reasons chuds, grifters and incels have with the game. Erika is going to get way more roles now and i'm happy for them and laughing at those against them.
@TheArt It doesn't because PS4 and X1 don't support RT and certainly can't run RT. The consoles would frigging melt and run in single digits if you got RT running on them 😅.
@yazzika Will say the maps are big enough in that their packed with content and do give you a lot of space to move in. They're also fairly varied and each have their own theme and identity and are extremely pretty its just for me its a bit of a downgrade over the first game as i love seamless maps in my open world games. Overall its a minor thing though as the rest of the game is excellent.
@yazzika Its separated into zones bit like how FF7 Rebirth does things. Its not a big seamless map with no loading screens its a bunch of mid to somewhat big sized maps separated by loading screens. Its not a deal breaker but it does lack that sense of freedom you usually get in open worlds games.
@AdamNovice Yeah the maps are big so you do get a lot of space but i just hated seeing the views and knowing its a skybox, i hated seeing the Mountain and knowing its a static image and that i can't seamlessly go to it and climb it. I get why its like this but i wish SP done The Witcher 3 approach and made two huge maps with some smaller ones that exist more for story then exploring.
Tsushima has the better open world because its an actual open world unlike Yotei. I also feel stealth was better in Tsushima as well. Other then those two things Yotei is the better game with far better combat, better side content and a better story with Atsu actually being a great character unlike Jin who is just boring, bland and pretty dull saved by his voice actor who does a great job. That said i went with the middle option for what i like best as i much prefer Tsushima's actual open world while preffering Yotei's gameplay and story. Both fantastic games though and Yotei easily makes my top 5 of 2025 while Tsushima easily made my top 5 of whatever year they came out (2019???).
@tameshiyaku Her last game was U3 well over a decade ago and everything she's done since has failed, been cancelled or been poorly received. It gets to the point that you start to think maybe she's the issue. U3 was also a mess from narrative standpoint and pretty bloated and from what we know her version of U4 sounded pretty generic and well bad what with the whole tired long lost evil brother returns trope being the main beat of it.

@SeaDaVie and yet BO7 will still outsell BF6. People really need to stop competing these games as BF will never beat it.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 UK Sales Plummet 61% Compared to Black Ops 6
It would be nice to see BF6 actually dent COD a tiny bit especially with how bad BO7 is meant to be.

@Questionable_Duck PQ should cover it as MS are a 3rd party publisher now. PX won't cover stuff as they're a bunch of fanboys on there.

Re: Mobile MMO Horizon Steel Frontiers Seems to Have Captured Lots of Attention Already
If its a success i expect a PS5 port and maybe even Xbox could happen. These types of games always launch first on mobile and PC.

Finishing up the Platinum for Yotei so i'm free for Stalker 2 next week.

Re: Red Dead Redemption 1 Confirmed for PS5, Out 2nd December
@StitchJones RDR has actually aged pretty well. Between 60fps and much higher res the game still looks pretty good.

@darylb24 Saw and pretty shocked to be honest. Maybe there's a small chance RDR2 gets a free upgrade now
Re: Red Dead Redemption 1 Confirmed for PS5, Out 2nd December
@StitchJones I own the PS4 version as i wanted to replay it at 60fps. I'm many double dipped especially as the PS3 version can't be played on PS4/PS5.
Re: First PS Plus Extra Game for December 2025 Announced

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2 Is Now the Fourth Best Selling Game Ever, Still Chained to PS4 at 30FPS
@Gremio108 I replayed it last year. Other then slightly aged character faces the game could pass for a PS5 game in my opinion.
Re: Red Dead Redemption 2 Is Now the Fourth Best Selling Game Ever, Still Chained to PS4 at 30FPS
@TheArt It doesn't because PS4 and X1 don't support RT and certainly can't run RT. The consoles would frigging melt and run in single digits if you got RT running on them 😅.
Re: Red Dead Redemption 2 Is Now the Fourth Best Selling Game Ever, Still Chained to PS4 at 30FPS
I would settle for a 60fps patch for the PS4 version but yeah a remaster what gives us 60fps, RT and such would be the dream.

Re: Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra Piles on PS5 Delay Misery
@tameshiyaku Her last game was U3 well over a decade ago and everything she's done since has failed, been cancelled or been poorly received. It gets to the point that you start to think maybe she's the issue. U3 was also a mess from narrative standpoint and pretty bloated and from what we know her version of U4 sounded pretty generic and well bad what with the whole tired long lost evil brother returns trope being the main beat of it.
