Started playing this and it’s the first first person game I’ve played in years. It’s given me motion sickness for some reason each time I’ve booted it up.
I’m only at Vatican City but already wondering if I’m gonna make it through. Seems decent so far though…
This game totally surpassed my expectations, especially after all the negativity around it at launch.
The world looked amazing, I loved how it weaved through the story’s of jabba, lando etc and didn’t have any Jedi whatsoever (even though they’re cool) and fair play for the devs to mix up the usual Ubisoft open world formula with the reputation system.
It played like butter on my pro and I’m well up for some more so will pick this up. Love it when a game surprises you so much.
@Porco interesting points thanks for the extra info and yes we’re being led to a digital future for sure, whether we like it or not…
My main reason for staying with physical over digital is the fact you can recoup some value by reselling. With prices skyrocketing as they are that’s becoming even more appealing for me to stay physical yet with a digital future the loss of that option means gaming will become infinitely more expensive.
Pros - Switch 2 hardware looks great with hdr, vrr, 120fps, 4k, mouse control etc. It’s even priced ok. Most games are SP and not live service which suits me perfectly. Metroid Prime 4.
Cons - Switch 2 games are priced horrendously meaning I’ll buy less on S2 than I did S1 and probs more on PS5. Game chat is 20 years too late. Game key cards are the worst idea since square wheels. Nintendo are showing their greed by putting shareholders ahead of their customers. That rarely ends well.
I’ve always seen both my PlayStation and Nintendo consoles as the perfect compliment to each other.
Having both has always provided me with all the gaming I need and don’t look at it like “this is my primary console, this is my secondary console.” They’re both just there providing what I need.
The game pricing is insane and double what I pay for Switch 1 games. If there's no discounts to be found I'll end up only buying the mainline Nintendo games and everything else on PS5.
Metroid Prime is probably the only game I'd even consider at those inflated prices...

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Indiana Jones and the Great Circle?
No poll loading up on my phone but I’d give it a 7.5.
Was the first first person game I’ve played in ages and it gave me bad motion sickness for some reason which wasn’t ideal lol

@LiamCroft hi Liam nice review as always thank you!

Re: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (PS5) - Daring, Quirky RPG Is an Absolute Must-Play
Sweet. I very rarely preorder especially with unknown IP but for some reason I did with this. Glad it turned out well!

(No I don’t work for Ubisoft 🤣)
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on PS5?
Have bought it and is being delivered today.
Might boot it up but have recently started FF7 Rebirth so I’ll try to hold off the temptation until I’ve finished that - which might not happen!

Re: Microsoft Short Changes Indiana Jones PS5 by Only Putting 20GB on the Blu-ray
They could’ve at least put 100gb on the disc so only a 20gb download was required.

@Shrek_Realista @DanteDevilHunter didn’t realise the file size was so big, thanks.

Anyone know if this is coming physically? Or digital only?
Re: Switch 2 Fans Can’t Stand Seeing Nintendo’s New Console Compared to the 12-Year-Old PS4
Well I’m a switch 2 fan and I couldn’t give a s*** about this.

Re: PS5 Price Increases Announced by Sony, Immediately Affects UK, Europe, and More
@Vectrex me too, I miss the good old days when console prices went down…
Re: PS5 Price Increases Announced by Sony, Immediately Affects UK, Europe, and More
For the payers.
Re: Microsoft Short Changes Indiana Jones PS5 by Only Putting 20GB on the Blu-ray
And Phil over at Xbox is always waffling on about how game preservation is so important.
He talks the talk but doesn’t walk the walk.

Re: Comments from Ubisoft's Legal Team Are Not Going to Improve the Embattled Publisher's Image
Surely the 2099 expiry gives them a good chance of winning this?
Re: Wuthering Waves Fanbase in Flames After Dev Makes Some Undies Edits
@bluemage1989 yeah that’s what I thought. Funny these games are released in these states only to be changed later…
Re: The Outer Worlds 2 PS5 Gets a Huge Gameplay Debut Ahead of Summer Unveiling
“but it just goes to show what’s possible with the right management approach.”
Yeah in terms of output only insomniac can say the same for Sony’s studios.
Re: You'll Be Able to Transfer Your Cyberpunk 2077 Progress from PS5 to Switch 2
Respect for CD Project for putting it on a 64gb cart too and not some silly key card!
Re: Best Assassin's Creed Games
Totally agree with No1.
AC2 had such good set pieces and was a massive improvement over the original.

@Porco haha well with you running out of shelf space at least the digital transition is happening at a convenient time for you! 🤣
Re: Switch Exclusive Disney Illusion Island Appears to Be Coming to PS5

Re: PlayStation Is Dying to Know What You Think of Nintendo Switch 2 in Player Survey
Here you go Sony:
Pros - Switch 2 hardware looks great with hdr, vrr, 120fps, 4k, mouse control etc. It’s even priced ok. Most games are SP and not live service which suits me perfectly. Metroid Prime 4.
Cons - Switch 2 games are priced horrendously meaning I’ll buy less on S2 than I did S1 and probs more on PS5. Game chat is 20 years too late. Game key cards are the worst idea since square wheels. Nintendo are showing their greed by putting shareholders ahead of their customers. That rarely ends well.
Just my 2 cents…
Re: Bloodborne's Switch 2 Spiritual Successor Could Come to PS5 Yet
Lost interest in this when I realised it’s not SP.
Re: Feature: PS5's Not Perfect, But Here Are 5 Ways It's More Consumer Friendly Than Switch 2
I definitely appreciate being able to buy individual games on ps5 vs the subscription only Nintendo option.
Re: Single Player Games Are Still Coming from Dark Souls, Elden Ring Dev
If duskbloods was single player game that would’ve been a system seller.
As it is it’s just a disappointment, for me anyway.

Interesting art but is probably not for me.
Re: PS6 Can't Rely on Cutting-Edge Graphics, Sony Must 'Change Its Way of Thinking'
Exactly why I don’t think we need a PS6 for many years yet.
Re: PS5 Players See Switch 2 as a Secondary Console, Not Direct Competition
I’ve always seen both my PlayStation and Nintendo consoles as the perfect compliment to each other.
Having both has always provided me with all the gaming I need and don’t look at it like “this is my primary console, this is my secondary console.” They’re both just there providing what I need.
Re: Talking Point: What Are Your Thoughts on Potential $80 PS5 Games?
It is a bitter pill to swallow
Funny enough it just makes me want to stay physical even more. At least then there’s the option to recoup some of that cost by reselling if I want to.
Re: Nintendo Copies the Astro Bot Concept, Sells You Switch 2's Tutorial
Nintendo have become seriously greedy it’s not a good look. How on the earth is this “game” not a pack in?
Do they really think people are gonna pay for a tech demo/tutorial? Especially if it’s also priced £70!? Feck that.
Makes me more grateful to Sony for packing in the excellent Astro playroom!
Re: Reaction: Switch 2 Looks Solid But the Many PS5, PS4 Ports Won't Spook Sony Yet
@OorWullie actually that did look quite cool when I saw the mouse controls. Think it looked a lot better than ARMS anyway!
Re: Reaction: Switch 2 Looks Solid But the Many PS5, PS4 Ports Won't Spook Sony Yet
The game pricing is insane and double what I pay for Switch 1 games. If there's no discounts to be found I'll end up only buying the mainline Nintendo games and everything else on PS5.
Metroid Prime is probably the only game I'd even consider at those inflated prices...
Re: Poll: PS5 Fans, Are You Sold on the Nintendo Switch 2?
Metroid Prime 4 at 4k 60fps (and mouse control) sold it for me. The Duskbloods and Donkey Kong also looked sweet!
I'm sure my PS5 will love having this as company sat next to it!
Re: Feature: Nintendo Switch 2 Direct - 5 Things for PS5 Fans to Pay Attention To
Looking forward to seeing more on switch 2. I’ve always gamed with a Nintendo/Playstation combo so this’ll sit nicely next to my PS5!
Re: Croc: Legend of the Gobbos (PS5) - Cult Favourite Platformer Returns in Robust Remaster

Wasn’t this just one of many Mario 64 copycats trying to out-do the plumber after his sublime outing showed everyone how it was done?
