I had to go through 20 idiotic mouse pictures things for them to tell me there is an error. Apparently Sony employees phoned it in after the announcement this week.
@theheadofabroom Nothing wrong with that of course. But seeing as how I’m paying for PS+ for me, whether it’s crap or not is based on whether it’s good for me. There have been a couple months this year where people thought it was crap but I liked them, so it’s all just a matter of opinion.
@theheadofabroom I guess it depends how you look at it. To me it’s a crap selection because I don’t want anything they have to offer. If you’re looking at it from the perspective of what “critics” think then you’d probably say it’s not crap.
According to the trophy for Act 3, 30.6% of players have it. So it doesn’t seem like the folks using how long to beat are entirely representative of the Sony ecosystem.
Very disappointing that Spider-Man gets no story missions. Like someone else said, it looks like they just threw him in the game because they had a previous commitment to do so.
I got the game for $19.99 on a sale and don't regret it one bit. I'm sad I waited so long to get it after seeing so many negative comments about it.
That being said, are we 100% sure we will actually get to play as Spider-Man in this game, or just Peter Parker? Their little blurb specifically brings up Ms. Marvel and Black Widow. I wonder if you play as them with him being someone like Hank Pym in the main campaign. I can't see how his web swinging would work in this game, it's not made for that.
It’s a 6 from me. The stealth is terrible. The AI is not good. The shooting is serviceable but lacks many weapons. The story is the most interesting part along with Julianna/Colt banter. The different locations and times don’t really add anything. The game became a chore to finish by the end. It’s hard for me to fathom how anyone would give this a 10 with all of its issues.
After the first couple hours I wondered whether I would even finish the game. I’m nearing the end and while I don’t think it’s a great game, it’s decent. It’s a cool idea, but the gameplay just isn’t for me. I’m shocked this game is getting 10s as I don’t see it anywhere close to that.
Started this yesterday and definitely was not expecting it to be so much stealth. My understanding was it was more or less a shooter. So far, if you want to get into a shootout you’re as good as dead. I have to say I’m disappointed in the game so far. I’m about 2 hours in, maybe that will change.
@get2sammyb This game has more content and is equally as fun as R&C Rift Apart and that game was $70. I really hope no one in the comments bought that digitally.
@pip_muzz Welcome to the “console wars”. Complete and utter nonsense where people want to believe they made the best choice so they try and degrade anyone who has a different opinion.
Played about 5 hours so far. The art style isn’t my favorite but that’s my only complaint. It controls really well, the characters and story have been great so far and the powers you get are fun. It feels like what would happen if Comedy Central made a R&C game to me.
@Steel76 The ones you’re tired of are what sells consoles for Sony. It’s the only reason I have a PS5. It would be commercial suicide for them to pivot from that.
Will be starting Hades pretty soon. I sure hope the game design is better than Returnal.
Returnal has excellent combat and graphics but I hate the “story” presentation and the game design is one of the worst I’ve ever played. It’s like it was deliberately created to make things as awful as possible for players. Bloodborne blows Returnal out of the water for me. I hated Returnal so much I just stopped playing it which is a shame because the moment to combat is so good.

@NEStalgia Regal is owned by Cineworld I found out. None near me unfortunately.
Re: Purchase Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection and Watch the Movie for Free
@Keyblade-Dan No, sir. I’m in the states.
Re: Purchase Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection and Watch the Movie for Free
Cool idea, but can’t say I’ve ever heard of Cineworld…

Re: PlayStation Wrap-Up 2021 Available Now, Share Your Gaming Stats
@RevGaming I got 100% for the base game in 87 hours. I would imagine not doing that yI would have beat the game in around 40-50 hours.
Re: PlayStation Wrap-Up 2021 Available Now, Share Your Gaming Stats
As others have mentioned, it appears to be broken.
Re: Don't Worry, Harry Potter Fans! Warner Bros Brazil Says Hogwarts Legacy Is Coming in 2022
@nessisonett Thanks. I figured based on your anger in the initial comment I had missed something along the way.
Re: Don't Worry, Harry Potter Fans! Warner Bros Brazil Says Hogwarts Legacy Is Coming in 2022
@nessisonett I was under the impression he’s got a pretty good track record. Do you have evidence to the contrary that I’ve missed out on?
Re: GDC Reveals Its GOTY 2021 Nominees, Voted for by Game Developers
@nessisonett That game was probably one of the hardest games for me to finish in the past couple years. It just is not good.

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Games for January 2022?
@UltimateOtaku91 False, I simply have no interest in any of these games.
Re: Game of the Year: Best PS5, PS4 FPS Game of 2021
Apparently I just don’t get Deathloop. I thought it was mediocre to the core and I actually had to force myself to finish it.
The shooting is average at best, the stealth is broken and the story was meh. Colt and Julianna banter was the high point.

Re: Raw Forspoken Gameplay Features Combat, Menus
Graphics looks fine but if I recall this game was supposed to be the best looking open world game ever made, not sold on that.
Also, as other people have said, it looks so empty.
Re: Cyberpunk RPG Shooter The Ascent Could Be Blasting to PS5, PS4 Soon
@KilloWertz Agreed. Then PS owners would whine like Xbox owners do now about the long exclusivity.
Re: PS Plus December 2021 PS5, PS4 Games Announced
The Godfall stuff is a joke. The end game stuff got boring real fast so the version they’re giving misses out on all the good stuff. 🤦🏻♂️
Re: Spider-Man Gameplay Shared in New Marvel's Avengers Hands On
Very disappointing that Spider-Man gets no story missions. Like someone else said, it looks like they just threw him in the game because they had a previous commitment to do so.
Re: Poll: What Game Will Win at The Game Awards 2021?
The fact that Returnal and Forza 5 didn’t make the list is a joke.
Also, Deathloop was mediocre at best and will likely win.

Re: Fans Ponder Whether There's an Upgrade Path for Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection on PS5
@NEStalgia I’ve been wanting to replay and was hoping for a 4K/60 patch on PS5. So I feel targeted. 😂
Re: Fans Ponder Whether There's an Upgrade Path for Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection on PS5
@NEStalgia Nothing strange really, Sony is really good at nickel and diming people as of late. This seems par for the course.

I’d just love UC4 to get 4K/60fps so I can replay it on PS5 but I’m asking a lot.
Re: Don't Worry, Naughty Dog Will Continue Making Single Player, Story-Focused Games
To all those mocking @pimpjuice, the game certainly had an agenda. Whether that makes it good or bad is up to each persons opinion.

Re: Marvel's Midnight Suns Is XCOM Team's Take on the Superhero Universe
@dudeAmarillo That’s one character and a fantastic game. They’ve been incapable of making an Avengers game.
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Release Date Set for February 2022 on PS5, PS4
Sure seems like Sony tried to shove as many games as they could when PS5 launched and were banking on this for end of 2021 and now they have nothing.
Re: Marvel's Midnight Suns Is XCOM Team's Take on the Superhero Universe
@MFTWrecks Sorry, should have clarified, I was speaking to more recent games.
Re: Marvel's Midnight Suns Is XCOM Team's Take on the Superhero Universe
It’s mind boggling that no one can take the worlds biggest IP and make a good game.
