@Fighting_Game_Loser the remastered was so so in my opinion. Story was nice but gameplay really poor. I absolutely dreaded having to reload a checkpoint and play through a sequence again. I recommend playing on easy just for the story and running through it.

for people into accessible retro vibes rallying I highly recommend Art of Rally as well. for such a simple game I put in many hours.

I'm really into VR lately (on PC), and for my 2nd playthrough of Cyberpunk I'm going the (modded) VR route. Hopefully my GPU won't melt.

Cant be disappointed when your expectations are this low. I allready quit after Modern Warfare 3 on PS3. I did play the campaign from the MW1 and 2 reboot, borrowed from a friend. The first one was decent enough.

Oh and I played some DMZ when it was in beta. That was actually pretty good but it quickly turned to sht.

Btw there are more options than ever for actual war games on Playstation with Hell let loose and Arma Reforger.

I think I subbed in 2014 when the PS4 and Battlefield 4 came out, sole reason because it was mandatory to play online. There were often good sales though and plenty of free games I wouldnt have played otherwise.

It was a little stingy to pay for multiplayer where on pc and ps3 it was free but okay, if you looked for sales it was like 2 euro a month or something. I could live with that. But then it started to become impossible to find sales if you already had an active subscription, then the first of many price hikes and literally NOTHING in return. Switched to PC, unsubscriped from Plus and occasionally play some single player games on my PS5. I wish Xbox could provide some more competition because Sony has become very complacent..

Did they ever improve the framerate? On PS4 Pro it was still 30 fps . Never tried it on Ps5.

Edit. nvm copilot says the following:
The framerate for Dying Light varies across different PlayStation consoles:

PS4: The game runs at approximately 30 FPS with a resolution around 900p 1.
PS4 Pro: It also targets 30 FPS, but with a higher resolution of 1080p 2.
PS5: The game offers a stable 60 FPS at 1080p in performance mode 1.
PS5 Pro: There are multiple modes available, including native 4K at 30 FPS and upscaled 4K with 120 FPS using VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) 3.

Dont think about installing it, just do it buddy. Only way to make a stance against this.

@StrickenBiged Exactly. I felt like that was it's purpose, for people that havent played the game the invasion of the Scars island wasn't really obvious. This made it more obvious and places it in the timeline. Otherwise it served no purpose and letting her go like that was extremely far fetched.

I loved 2016. Eternal suffered from sequel syndrome imho. Everything was cranked up a notch and it suffered from it. Interested at this one but not a full price unfortunately.

Very glad to hear it. Ive been playing resident evil 2 and 3 remake and I know they were criticized for being short by I feel it was a perfect length.

2 player local coop! Nice! It's a buy just for that reason

@Northern_munkey np. It's why I made the switch to pc for simracing and I can say its worth it

@Northern_munkey dirt and EA WRC dont have VR support on console though. youll need a pc for that. And EA WRC has very poor VR performance on pc..

@PsBoxSwitchOwner from the sounds of I'll have time for a time sink like this when I'm retired in 35ish years..

@dskatter that would diminish the value of a possible remaster though. So might be a reason why it hasnt happened

@ozkrmz only way to change this is by voting with our wallets.

I let my subscription expire in november. Free games arent worth it and I hardly ever play online anymore. Ironically yesterday I played Battlefield 3 online on pc for free, which was taken offline on consoles recently even though its a paid service. Something is very wrong there.....

Edit. And on PC games are given away for free too. Every other week some gamestore is giving away free games, no subscription needed..

Probably there was some other motivation for getting the award other than recognition, some kind of monetary bonus or social status credits with the government or something..

@SrpskaArtilerija I have my trusty old PS2 hooked up as well for occasional playthroughs of GTA3, Vice City and San Andreas. CMOS battery died and I tried replacing it but it didnt work, but it doesnt matter that much lol
Never played halflife on Playstation though

"Early black friday" is such a bizarre concept. Given that black friday is basically "early christmas". Retailers are just going nuts over getting the consumer to part money with them first

Recently played through HL2 again on PC with some basic mods to bring it more into the modern age but not mess with the source material (pun intended). Had a blast. Game still holds up very well today

I got a PS4 Pro eventually, and even fitted a SSD which it amazingly lacked.., because at some point I really felt like the base model couldnt keep up with the demands of new releases. I sold my base model for a reasonable price which went into financing the Pro and eventually even sold my pro to finance the 5. So upgrading is not just sunk cost either. But at this point in time I have zero urge to upgrade. To be fair this year I switched to PC as well and my PS5 isnt getting a lot of use.

Seems like the "definitive" edition wasnt quite that definitive..

Talking of Shadow Fall, pretty wild that never made it to PS Plus, huh?

I think the HD remaster was the only version I played lol. I had a reasonable time with IIRC

And now you know why we cant have custom backgrounds...

@Lembit lol. Absolutely agree with you on that. For me he was the thing I disliked the most from GoT. That and the generic open world stuff and hollow side quests. Other than that I enjoyed my time with GoT.

I got a ps5 but also went the pc route, which was about 1500 euro, because that gives you a crazy amount of options. Especially when youre into sim racing. Not sure why you'd spent 800 to play the same games at marginally better performance?

This must be what it feels like to the developers too. Pulling allnighters to deliver a game thats pulled within 2 weeks

@zhoont oh man the voice acting in that game is so bad. Even in Russian it was distractingly bad. Otherwise great games though

Sounds good. Shorter runtime and an environment more like the first game sounds like a winner to me

Btw did they say something about being infected again? I hated that part of DL2..

I really enjoyed doom 2016 (and the classics of course), but I feel like Eternal and it's dlc slowly started to go downhill. I cant really put my finger on it, it just seems more and more over the top and convoluted.

@DonkeyFantasy makes sense

@DonkeyFantasy so what my partner and I do, is that we split our spendable income evenly between us. What she does, and what I believe most women do, is that she spends it on a thousand tiny things. And I, like most men, spend it on a single very expensive item once a year maybe. Either way is fine though and we never have to justify our spending to eachother

@DaniPooo did you see the bigscreen vr headset? In terms of form factor that thing is crazy

Sweet. Streets of rage was on my wishlist for a while but completely forgot about it. Will definitely give it a go.

@LikelySatan same here. Dont think i ever bothered to complete. Fallout3 and new vegas however are some of my personal favoutites of all time..

Just bought a gaming pc so anything below 60 wont happen now!

Just did a few missions with my brother. Lot of fun. And this was even on lower difficulties. I reckon on hard difficulties it will be mayhem, just like Hell Divers 1

I voted 'sometimes but only when it's cheaper', but for me it's more like I only buy digital if it's much cheaper than disc. I like owning discs for several reasons, one of them being the resell value that a digital product simply doesnt have.
The argument that it saves time changing discs doesnt fly with me. I mean, how lazy can you be. Only for pick up and play indie games I can understand this a bit if you just have 10 minutes to play a game.

@StylesT part 1 was free at plus ar one point so I reckon theres a good chance this will be too.

@RenanKJ lol so true

Awesome. Cant wait. The first one was great and this looks like more and better.

Wow very nice. Both plague tale and evil west are on my wishlist. I hope they fixed the performance issues of plague tale though. Heard it wasnt great at launch

Really really bummed to hear they're quitting as a studio. Thoroughly enjoyed Shadow Tactics and Desperados 3. Completed Shadow Tactics twice and I'm currently doing my second playthrough of Desperados to get some more badges. Genuinely great games made with a lot of care.

Didnt try shadow gambit yet but I'll probably get it at some point. The style doesnt appeal to me that much but I'm sure they make up for it with a great game underneath.

Its really something thats best enjoyed with a podcast. Just like Snowrunner.

I can understand people being underwhelmed as this isnt exactly AAA material. But honestly powerwash simulator looks like fun and Sable was on my radar for a while as well. For me a good month is when I'll play at least one of the free games and it looks like this month it'll be 2.

@Fiendish-Beaver for me it's extremely noticeable, especially in first person or racing games. I suppose it doesnt work the same for everyone but the 60 fps feels so smooth it's very hard to go back to 30.

@SuntannedDuck2 last F1 and Motogp games I played were still fun. Dirt Rally 2 ofcourse had a bit of a ***** monetization but I'm cautiously optimistic about this. I'll definitely wait for reviews though.

@Smash41 the car building feature worries me too as it sounds like a vehicle (pun intended) to sell their cosmetics etc..

Oh well, currently still working my way through WRC Generations so I'm in no hurry. If it turns out to be microtransaction hell I'll just wait for a sale.
