I can't bloody wait! I preordered Greedfall A Dying World lmao, so no Digimon Story Time Stranger for me (for a while) but patience is a virtue. I was holding off because of the weird 30fps cap and low and behold...

I finished the game back when I had my Series S, and it was something I really enjoyed. Was it a masterpiece? NO. Was it a gamechanger? NO. But it's nowhere near as "bad" as the gamer hivemind would have you believe..

@AhmadSumadi Gurl, it's literally one of the most anticipated games of 2026, if we ignore GTA VI... There's a lot of buzz around it, especially with what they've shown, and people have already set their expectations high. If it doesn't live up to the "hype", it will definitely be forgotten in an instant; that's why I said that there isn't a middle ground for this type of game. Just look at what they've shown and promised...

This will either pull an Expedition 33 or a Cyberpunk, there's nothing in between. But it does look incredible, I just hope it actually delivers!

Meanwhile resident Twitter chuds are in full meltdown, doing damage control lmaooo. I'm glad I left that cesspool.

Marvel Rivals is still a way better game, and I will not be gaslit into thinking otherwise.

@Naughtyottsel92 Well, Sony has made some horrible decisions at the beginning of this new console era, and Xbox actually made good choices. That's why I chose to get a Series S back in 2021! But now things have changed, HOWEVER, you should know that a monopoly is never good for the consumer, especially when we're dealing with capitalism.

@OldGamer999 Yeah, the PS4 era definitely had more games coming out but if we're being honest, games have evolved to a point where it's literally impossible to develop one in such a short time, unless it's a short indie experience.

I left Xbox like a month ago, and I never looked back. The PS5 is dominating the console space FOR A REASON, but a monopoly is never good, and Xbox is literally handing over everything to Sony on a silver platter. Whether this is good or bad, we have yet to see...

Oh sweet lord, not her again...
She's a terrible actress and a terrible person, and I hope they can cast someone else, literally anyone else.

From what I've seen on Reddit, it's not a bad game per se, but a really bad Bloodlines sequel. If they only named it differently and marketed it differently, it would've been received a lot better, at least that's how the majority on Reddit feels. I've never played the original, but I might get this on a deep deep sale.

@Silenos Hun, the game was review bombed on Steam because.... Well because ...... It's a game that was supported by Geoff and because a AA studio dared to release a multiplayer game because the devs all worked on a highly successful project beforehand. To be fair, normal people critized the performance on PC but that's a minority. Most of the community online suddenly got a hate b*ner.

@Oram77 They wanted to put their spin on the Apex Legends/Marvel Rivals formula and that's completely fine. Saying NOBODY ASKED FOR THIS GAME is a huge stretch, some people wanted a game like this, and it hurts seeing people attack a small AA studio!

I haven't yet tried it but this whole hivemind of wanting a game to fail for "reasons" is absolutely the reason why I hate GAMERS™

@naruball It's the I'M NOT PLAYING AS A STRAIGHT WHITE GUY, IT'S WOKE BULLSH*T DURRR!1!
Weird how whenever a POC character or an LGBT character has a spotlight in a video game, they always have a mental breakdown. It's political duuurr!1!1!
I can't anymore lmao!

Extremely disappointed in Push Square tbh. I won't question individual tastes, but not having A Plague Tale: Requiem on the list is downright baffling. It trumps the majority of games you mentioned, but to each their own.

I'm not surprised by the lukewarm reception at all. Glen came off as an extremely arrogant person, especially when he praised crunching and we all know how often that happens in the gaming industry. He seems like a terrible person to work with.
As for the game, I never understood his need to make a cheap Dead Space clone. The story from what I've heard sucks and doesn't hold a candle to DS. It's not an abomination but seems forgettable.

@BoldAndBrash God, I just LOVE how every time women are presented as ugly, overweight gold-diggers in this joke, but the straight men are these hot/successful, rich CEOs. Can't you think of a better joke? Geez 🙄

Tbh it looked super polished in the gameplay video, so I'm guessing PS4 and XONE are to blame.
My only concern right now is the game getting buried with the release of Ragnarok.

I would rate it somewhere between a 6 and a 7. I loved the atmosphere and the cat is sooo adorable, BUT, I think the story wasn't up to standards, unfortunately. I wanted to see more of Momo and Clementine, how humans ended up extinct etc. If they ever make some sort of a sequel, I hope they address this.

Wouldn't it make more sense for them to actively promote the game at this stage? Guurl, we're almost in August and they have yet to release any substantial information.
Call me a negative Nancy, but this smells like Cyberpunk 2077. By that, I mean it's a repackaged PS4 game with updated character models.
Naughty Dog needs some proper direction ASAP.

That looks absolutely horrible! I adore the universe but good lord, this is such an expensive cash grab and they're not even hiding it anymore. The fact that they didn't even bother to add a dodge mechanic says a lot about this "remake".
I don't want to tell people what to do with their money, but I hope you guys don't spend your hard earned cash on this. It's not worth it.

I'm always happy to see my queens slaying!
This should be the norm for all sports games moving forward.

@jFug Lol! To be fair, Man of Medan was terrible, Little Hope was really decent (sans ending) and House of Ashes was pretty excellent. The Quarry was definitely on par with Until Dawn.
But I get it, the PS team isn't a big fan for some reason.

Hate to be that guy but why are people hyped for yet another generic open world game?
It's not going be an RPG, nor will it have a compelling story. Rockstar should focus on bringing a fresh IP with RPG elements, instead of rehashing old stuff.

I'm moving in with my boyfriend soon, so I haven't bought any games recently. However, I'm enjoying Apex Legends at the moment, so that's what I'm playing.
Have a good weekend everyone!

My guess is that they'll pull the plug this year. There isn't even a roadmap anymore, and to my knowledge, there won't be anymore single player content. Such a shame, because there is a good game buried underneath all that live service crap.

I'm going to be THAT guy and ask, do people still play this? I thought it was pure garbage when it was released back in 2020. Way too chaotic for my taste, with floaty controls, and the gameplay is dreadful IMO. I had more fun with Rocket Arena (dead game) and Knockout City, and they're also indie games with strong gameplay.

Watched the livestream, and damn it looks good. They definitely improved the gameplay and it looks like it's no longer a "trial and error" type of stealth.
I'm so ready! Just hoping they don't pull of a Rodrick lol!

I'm stunned lol. It looks so polished and the animations simply go with the flow. Focus hasn't disappointed me yet, and this one looks like a major winner.

@thefourfoldroot1 It's a soulslike action RPG, and they probably want people to try it out before making a final purchase.

@Col_McCafferty Maybe you should direct your frustration towards Jimbo? I really don't see why you shouldn't support a single player, AA game, and with Sony going towards the whole "live-service" route, you'll be sorry if you don't.

Super excited about this one! My gut says this could be a summer release in 2023 but of course, no pressure lol.

I barely finished the game. Yeah, it was THAT terrible and I usually don't say that about many games.
I want my 30 dollars back lol!

@Bismarck Hun, the fact that you're responding in a rude fashion says a lot about you. If you don't like the studio or their games, then don't comment on the news article.

I'm screaming right now. I knew they were teasing something!
One of my favorite RPGs ever! Next to Mass Effect and Dragon Age.
It's just a bummer that's it's so far out. Guys, again, DON'T SLEEP ON SPIDERS!

Gamers you better support this masterpiece. Prove EA wrong, and tell them that horror games can sell really well.

Unfortunately, this weekend I'm all about saving money since I spent a lot with my boyfriend lmao! However, I'm planning on getting Horizon: FW soon and Digimon Survive at launch.

@itsfoz Come on, you're exaggerating a bit. Sure, it fell a bit flat but it wasn't THAT bad. For me, the problem was the chemistry between the couple.

@Scob Lmao, it's not like they sold a complete lie or lied about a certain game's performance on PS4.

To my fellow Greedfall fans, I'm happy to say that Spiders is working on a new RPG that will have companions, romance options, etc. Basically, everything we had before.
Steelrising is something new they wanted to try, and they're not abandoning their roots.

@Elodin Sorry, can't tell you that :/
However, as I already mentioned, the combat is incredible imo and I'll leave it at that.

@Perturbator I can't discuss anything in detail since I was obligated to sign a NDA.
But, I can confirm that the combat is "souls like" and it's their best combat ever.

I was lucky to be invited to a closed playtest and I can just say that I loved what I played.
Definitely a must buy.

Fallen Order, because I ship Cal and Merrin so much! Such a cute couple lol.

There was a lengthy tweet about how they are a bunch of scammers and they have a "rich history" of promises that never came to fruition. Weird how nobody picked this up on P.S.
I think they even changed "studio" names a couple of times too lmao!

Edit: If anyone is wondering what the hell I'm talking about, here's a pic of their lies: https://ibb.co/5FcpDYg

@get2sammyb And he is doing a terrible job (from a consumer viewpoint). Just my two cents 🙂

@AdamNovice I know, it was just a dumb suggestion. My point is that there's always a way, but nope, Sony is interested in milking that sweet money from us.

ROLLS EYES 🙄
Or you know, they could always launch new games for a month or so, before taking them off so that they could form strong legs.
I know that my suggestion is the stupidest thing ever but I can't understand Sony at this point. No seriously, what the hell is Ryan doing?

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order on "hard" difficulty. (I'm nuts, right?)
I'll try to sneak in an hour of Life is Strange 2, but since I have plans with my boyfriend, I won't be playing much today.
Happy weekend everyone!
