Re: Vince Zampella Defends PS5 Pro Price, Says 'It's Actually Not That Bad'

@nessisonett don’t forget cost of raw materials going up, labor going up, shipping going up, demand going up. It’s not just inflation that’s rising, since COVID everything costs more. The more I reflect on the price, the more I realize it makes sense. However, the actual noticeable difference to the naked eye seems like the upgrade isn’t worth it, in my opinion.

@freddquadros I’m also currently playing Yakuza 4 as well, but still on the first chapter.

In between sessions of that I’ll be playing FFVII Rebirth, just started chapter 12 so I’ll hopefully finish that up next week. Also, dipping into my old playthrough of AC: Valhalla I never finished but have about 50 hours logged. Hoping to finish that before September hits. Trying to squeeze in some arcade shooting every few days as well with XDefiant and MWIII: Modern Warfare 3 (2023)

Re: Pour One Out for Iconic US Gaming Mag Game Informer

I still have some Game Informer magazines with covers like Halo 3, Mass Effect 2, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare, and the 20th anniversary of PlayStation cover. I loved reading them as a kid. I think I’m going to go to GameStop today and buy whatever magazines they’ve got left.

Re: Concord's PS5, PC Character Trailers Are Rolling Out

Movement looks floaty like Destiny 2’s multiplayer but with less space magic. I think this misses the mark in terms of flashy-looking gameplay. These snippets of gameplay make me want to play the game less because it just looks so slow and kinda boring. The character designs just feel like they are trying too hard to appeal to a specific demographic and that demographic is not me. This is coming from a big GotG and Marvel fan.

Just finished up Cyberpunk and Phantom Liberty after starting that game about 2 and a half years ago. Glad I played it but happy to have it crossed off my backlog. I’ve entered the final chapter in Jedi Survivor today so I’ll be finishing that up this weekend. Next week I’ll be focusing on making some progress in Yakuza 3 and recently picked up MW3 (2023) so I could play the OG MW2 maps again. Nostalgia got me on this one. I really prefer the gunplay in CoD over XDefiant but I prefer the movement and color palette of XDefiant. Guess I’ll be playing both for awhile for my FPS fix.

Picked up The Ori Collection on Swith along with Black Ops: Declassified and FFX on Vita. So I’ll be dipping into those. I need to get some rounds of XDefiant in as well as dabble a little in The First Descendant and play as Geralt of Rivia. Also, I’ll likely plow through the final few missions in Jedi Survivor. Going to be a busy weekend!
