Glitched Trophies seem to have finally been made available - although many are reporting they are still bugged and only unlock upon satisfying the requirements multiple times.
I played the three Ezio games and Black Flag plus Liberation, and frankly hated all of them. Trophy OCD compelled me after my brother put them on my profile. Woefully overrated series.
They might claim not to be affected by all the backlash from entitled babies, but I somehow doubt they would be releasing all this blatantly unfinished footage if the reveal had been met with applause.
They're sweating, and it just makes the game look even less appealing.
Would have loved to see the Jets play but I can't justify the pricetag. Never mind that I wouldn't want to be caught dead in London.
The Venn diagram overlap of American Football fans and Spurs can't be especially massive, so I don't understand why Tiburon would add this to the game - apart from the usual dearth of creativity on their side leading to this kind of nonsense, of course. At least the stadium itself represents a nice addition, butI'd prefer if they invested some time in making Trophies in '22 (and earlier games) unlock properly.
I hope Nagoshi-san has a great time in China and return to Japan as an even richer man in a few years. Looking forward to seeing how different he will look by then. Thank you for the constant barrage of amazing games while working at SEGA.
EA expired the free next-gen upgrade offer for Madden 21 on the day of Madden 22's release.
I made it a point to get a used copy earlier that week, claim the upgrade, and then return it. EA hasn't seen a cent from me since Burnout 3 (everything I've played of them since has been used or from Plus) and I'm looking forward to keeping that habit up. Especially when they are now making the cross-gen situation even more confusing.
This has been doing the rounds for a while now, both the new TM game and Lucid's connection to it.
Personally, I don't understand why studios that produced great game - think of Studio Liverpool, Zipper Interactive, Evolution, Guerilla Cambridge, etc. - were all shuttered while Lucid produced one of the biggest bombs in recent Playstation history yet is kept within arm's reach by Sony.
The market share is reassuring. Despite the formerly exclusive Yakuza series having plopped all its entries - save for Dead Souls and the Japanese-only titles - far and away most of its players are in the Playstation ecosystem. I don't see a reason to believe that XBox digital sales are significantly higher than their counterparts on PS either.
With all the rumours of SEGA being sold to Microsoft... well, I hope they think twice about ever going exclusively XBox.
Even the musicians are now tied into FUT with those kits being an unlockable incentive, huh? Gotta give EA credit, they're pushing levels of shamelessness that were previously thought impossible to achieve. All in service of the almighty MTX.
I 100% the original LBP on October 24th, thanks to a very helpful and friendly Russian who helped me play the delisted MGS and Pirates DLC. In hindsight, I dodged a bullet. The game was very heavy on online Trophies, so if you start today you might legitimately not get past the 60% range anymore.
Hitman 2 (Gold Edition) is one of them. Just my luck lmao. Chuffed for everyone else because it is an amazing game, and if you declare it rubbish without trying it first then shame on you. Go in with an open mind and you will be amazed.
Why does she look ten times better in Genshin's art style? Still not a very appealing character design IMO but they've done wonders with the source material.
I'll take this over FIST for PS Plus next month. In fact, that's not even close Releases October 5th? Lines up with Plus. Just hope the Trophies aren't silly.
And then you look at the latest abomination by Game Freak (or the awful D/P remakes), and you wonder where it all went wrong for the single biggest IP in the world.
For anyone putting faith in the Medium rumour; the devs have come out on Twitter saying it's not the PS5 game for this month.
Meanwhile, the fact that FIST is taking pre-orders are good news because that game would be a waste of a slot IMO. No doubt it will end up on Plus within the next two years anyway though.
Say what you want, but this is the right approach to take. If your annual sports title is stuck together with bubblegum and fails to provide significant improvements with every iteration, you should simply skip a year or delay matters further to get your product to the level of quality it needs to be at.
In other news, Madden NFL 22 just released, while its predecessor isn't even a year old.
@Iroha It's opposite for me, I will take Mahjong and other silly minigames over the Climax Battles any day of the week. Those can get rather ridiculous and cheap, whereas the minigames just tend to test the breadth rather than depth of your skills as a player.
I make an exception for the Disco in Yakuza 0, however - love the tunes but the actual minigame requirements are a kick in the 'nads.
Mite b cool, but literally the only time I even open the PS Store is to buy a game I've already decided upon - which is not often because I'm so obsessed with physical purchases. A fancy-schmancy store might thus not really work on me, but I'm sure others will be drawn in.
Anything that's not garbage. Another Yakuza game would be nice considering we haven't had one since Kiwami. I own them all physically, but it'd be nice to get more people into the series (and to tank the completion percentage for the game, Trophy-wise).
But at this point I'll take anything that isn't, y'know, hot garbage. I've almost resigned myself to FIST being the PS+ game, which I'm really not fond of, but if the PS4 games are okay then maybe September will be worth the 50% off subscription.
Big yawn, not the right developer, not the right era. Definite pass unless the Trophies are okay, in which case I will play it via PS Plus in a few years.
San Andreas Stories never happening for PSP/Vita is one of the greatest disappointments in modern gaming history. LCS and VCS improved on III and Vice City, one can only wonder how fantastic a second take on classic San Andreas would have been.
GTA IV and V are good games in their own right, but I don't think they ever recaptured that magic, that thing, that the 3D era titles had.
Would be nice to see the Show come to PS Plus but sounds like there's no incentive whatsoever on Sony's/MLB's part to do so when the money is still coming in.
I say that as someone who has never played a baseball game, btw. It sure would beat this month's disaster.
Out of this list literally the only game I own is GTA V.... on PS3. Last FIFA I played was '15.... on Vita, because I exhausted the library at that point.
I'm getting old, the industry is leaving me behind lmao.
Host was complete cringe, exceptionally forced and just not funny at all. Wasn't surprised to find out he was a 'wrestler' with the acting he put on display.

Re: Talking Point: What PS Plus Games for November 2021 Do You Want?
The PS5 game would have to be at least a few months old to avoid refunds being given out en masse, which should hopefully rule out FIST.
At this point, anything that isn't a failed online shooter or niche sports game would be nice.
