See what happens. If PS+ goes up and I have a feeling it will, I may not renew. I hardly play online and only download the odd game, could probably do without it.
@thefourfoldroot 2 scenes have had the interactions taken away and the dialog you mention has been censored. Luckily it’s on other platforms if you want the full experience.
I voted 8. I’ve loved my time with it upto the third boss. Sadly I’ve not had much time to spend on it recently. If the rest of the game is as good as it is up to now, I’d probably give it a 9. I think it’s a great title.
Nice. I got to the third boss yesterday and my arse was royally handed to me again so I took a break 😂 I managed to do the first level without dying though and then played through the second to lower my age for the 3rd. Still really enjoying it the combat is so fun and the 3rd level has some great visual moments.
Glad to see it turned out good. I liked the first game but didn’t love it, gameplay was pretty fun (it did feel like a Ubisoft game at times urgh) but the story was poor and Aloy was so dull imo, so I’m gonna wait until I pick this up.
Guess if it’s any good I’ll try it on Xbox then. Sonys censorship is a joke. They love censoring anything even remotely raunchy with Japanese games while letting us watch Abby get shagged on a boat for no reason. Good job Sony 👍🏻😂
I’ve only played it the last couple of days, I’m yet to beat the second boss. It’s tough but I like that challenge, it takes me out of my comfort zone and with practice I’m getting better. That’s what makes some games great imo as long as the challenge feels fair and in Sifu I feel it does.
It’s nice that less skilled players or those unwilling to learn will get to experience it I guess, I just wish some more people would leave their comfort zone and experience the game as intended.
Edit: second boss down. Ahhh the sweet smell of victory 😏
I was playing it today. The jump from the first level to the second is Brutal!! I’m still yet to clear it but I’m getting better and better learning slowly. Just need to take the boss down. Class game I’m loving it.
@RevGaming where did I say anything about Phil? He’s obviously in your head not mine. You watched one guy on YouTube. Well done, I’ll give you a ring when I have a run in with the FTC next time x
I did indeed. Probably the only game I’ll pick up this month (Crazy I know). Only played a small amount so far, it seems good. Like playing a game version of The Raid. Gonna play it properly the weekend when I have more time.
Bungie have been a horrible Dev since releasing the first destiny game. Now you can blame Activision as much as you want but not much has changed since they broke free of those chains. They’ve exploited their players as much as possible and made some really questionable choices when it comes to Destiny DLC.
Great at making FPS games but a sh*tty anti consumer Dev.
@Medic_Alert excellent post everything you say is correct. Since the acquisition I’ve seen a lot ignorance and elitism over on this side, saying Casuals don’t matter. Everything you have just said highlights why they do matter. I’d say at the moment PlayStation is the console ‘casuals’ buy into just going by sales numbers alone. If Sony lose them, it’ll be massive damage to their revenue.
Plus is still value for money so I have no issues with plus whatever games go on each month. With Sony increasing their pricing since the launch of PS5, plus feels like the only part of PlayStation still offering really good value, even if they are now adding some questionable titles.
Uncharted 4 is the only main line Uncharted game I didn’t replay and platinum. I enjoyed it but didn’t like Sam as a character or that story arc. Lost legacy was really good, Chloe is a strong lead and I wouldn’t complain if they did more with her in the future.
Don’t think I’ll be playing either again but good games no doubt.
I really enjoyed this one. It’s more of an experience than game. I remember booting it for the first time and just sitting at the title screen listening to the song playing. It had a nice story with good characters.
He’s not wrong. VR isn’t comfortable to use as it is now. Until it becomes more comfortable and affordable I’m really not interested in VR. It’s not worth the entry price for barely a handful of games either.
@BritneyfR_ee FF7 remake still isn’t on Xbox because of Sony money….. they both do it. I’ve said this before, neither MS or Sony are good/bad, they’re both the same. They do the same things, the only difference is MS have more cash to make a bigger splash and make bigger headlines. You can bet your house on it that if Sony had 70 billion to spare they’d do the same thing.
@UltimateOtaku91 that’s a pretty stupid take. You do realise the ‘casuals’ as you call them, far outnumber any other type of gamer combined. Sony have been so successful by tempting those casuals over with exclusive COD deals etc. If more casuals shift over to other systems eventually because of this deal, Sony sales could go down for their games too, because even ‘casuals’ can buy PlayStation exclusives believe it or not.
I’m not a fan of the move and I understand the concerns here. It is what it is. Sony should just keep doing their thing, it’s not the end of the world for them.
I think this approach is smarter than Xbox’s day one releases on both PC and Xbox. Sonys console keeps some of its integrity.
I think what annoys the PlayStation faithful at it’s core is that their beloved exclusives aren’t really exclusive anymore, they’ve gone the Microsoft approach, just in a slightly different direction. You can’t say Xbox has no games anymore when Sony are doing the same thing, porting their games to PC.
I don’t care either way, I like the ease of use and affordability consoles bring. It’ll always be my preferred way to play.
I seen people crying that Kena was too short while being okay that R+C is the same length but double the price. I personally don’t have the time to sink 500 hours into a game but some people do and if this game claims to provide that much content fair play, whoever buys it and enjoys it will be getting their moneys worth that’s for sure.

Re: Martha Is Dead (PS5) - Censorship Is the Biggest Story in This Uneven Horror
If I play this it’ll be on Xbox, so I can hold a button and pull the stick to peel that sweet skin off.
Might be one to look out for in the sales this.

@Fatewalker interesting that’s the one attack on the second boss I was still having real trouble avoiding. If that’s true he’ll be much easier.

Re: Poll: What's the Best Uncharted Game?
Uncharted 2 without a doubt. Hell I even prefer 3 over 4.
4 was good but I didn’t like Sam as a character, it’s the most polished entry but only because it’s newer obviously. 2 and even 3 were just pure fun.
