I built a pc in September and bought a pro in November in anticipation of price spikes happening, so I’m good. Buying the pc was probably a mistake though.
The thing I miss the most about the ps2 era is that the console price went down over time. I know that this Gen got whacked by Covid, supply shortages, inflation and now dementia Donny running amok but the blow of my $450cad almost launch ps2 crapping out was offset by a new ps2 costing $250 to $300 less.
My premium subscription is up for renewal just before the price increase, this will be the last yearly resubscribe for me. The cost has surpassed the value.
I pre ordered coe33 from amazon.ca with a price error back in December, unsurprisingly amazon didn’t have enough stock to meet preorder demand or my order. No delivery date estimate either. I’m going to hold out to see if amazon eats the loss and ships me the game or cancels my order.
I’ll be forgetting that I now have a horse so I don’t need to walk everywhere in kingdom come deliverance 2 and I’ll be playing tomb raiders 2 & underworld
I need to give bg3 another go with some of the mods and on toddler difficulty. I liked it but I’m not familiar with d&d and I kept f**king up the minor stuff.
Loook at the booobs! Loook at the buums! Loook at the head… no wait look at the thighs… now the head….you know what we’re not gonna show you the head sculpt, another shot of the knockers!!
I felt this way about going from Wii u to switch. the Wii u was full of Nintendo charm, the switch on the other hand felt like an early prototype that was never updated.
I’ll be swinging my sword wildly and hoping for the best in kingdom come deliverance 2 on the 5pro. Dropping my gun at every possible opportunity in Hitman woa on psvr2 and fighting with the camera in jet set radio/future on pc.
I was wondering if the physical version of Indy circles on ps5 would contain a working version of the full game on disc but I guess the answer to that is no.
I can’t say I enjoyed when I would binge a game and then have dreams about running around endless random corridors with disappearing enemies all night, but the most that ever cost me was 100$ and not the billions bigtech is spending on this crap.
I’ll be playing atomfall on the 5pro, jet grind radio, jet set radio future on the pc and will be constantly bungling assassinations in hitman on psvr2.
As someone who has been slogging through yakuza zero for the last seven years, more cut screens would feel like a repeated kick to the gut, less cut screens on the other hand would be fantastic
I was expecting the s2 to be expensive, but not that expensive and Nintendo seems to be nickeling and diming you on everything else, so probably a pass at launch and I’ll just wait for more exclusives to come out.
I plan on buying the switch 2 at some point but I can’t say I’m all to excited, mainly hoping that it’s backwards compatibility boost resolution. I except s2 to be ps4 equivalent in power but with ray tracing and dlss which is more than adequate. Price 500 to 550 cad.
I’ll buy it day one but good god the character design is awful. I hope Sony has panic contacted clap handz to start working on a real follow-up after there live services failings as well.
It’s just a Xbox branded pre built gaming pc, I don’t think Sony will give a ***** and as soon as someone figures out how to enable steam big picture mode it will be a steam machine built by Microsoft.
Also this is just jazcorden fishing for attention.
I had shadows preordered but I cancelled the preorder, I’m just not in the mood for an open world game right now. Will buy shadows when I am in the right headspace which will hopefully be when it’s on sale.
I’m not sure metro could get any darker, but I guess if you currently live in a country that is fighting for its survival against a crazed neighbour you’re going to find even darker places to draw from.
I’ll be impregnating everyone in the Sims 4 with my little sim me on my lappytop and I’ll also will be feeling like a bad ass but looking like a goober while playing synapse on psvr2.
Quake and stalker shadow of chornobyl on the 5pro and sims 4 on the lappytop. I might bail on stalker and resume a different game I’ve previously abandoned, its not clicking with my current head space.
I ended up playing the first kingdom come deliverance for most of last month in preparation for playing KCD2, so I guess KCD2 is my game of the month even though I’m gonna have to delay playing it for another month to avoid burnout
I’ve made it to the point of no return in kingdom come deliverance 1, so that will be my weekend. I will be playing a few short games once kcd is all done me thinks.
Tried previous entries on the psp, Wii and ps4. none of them clicked, might check out wilds in a few years when it’s cheap but never understood the appeal from what I’ve played.
