Good old "no comment". In this age of grandiose statements about how developers have "taken the feedback on board" and are "working hard to put this right", you don't see plain old "no comment" much any more. It's almost nostalgic
@Balaam_ It'll be interesting to see if they do that this time. Traditionally the pre-release trailers have focused on the game world and single player story, but V obviously changed the game somewhat
@StrickenBiged The branded sunglasses are paid DLC
I don't understand why people want another trailer, the last one told us everything we need to know, surely? I don't want any more surprises spoiled, I want to just buy it when it comes out, and then play it.
I still find it strange that kids are playing Minecraft, a game that released several years before they were born. It's like if I'd been sat playing Space Invaders in the 90s
A new Elden Ring playthrough is underway, involving a blindfolded monk who throws lightning spears around. Just another normal day in the Lands Between.
Might also start Nine Sols today inbetween the football matches.
One of my all time faves, the world they created was wondrous for the time. Me and my mate played the hell out of it, we couldn't wait for weekends to roll around so we could spend time messing about in that sandbox some more
This will be the second proper trailer for the game (if we ignore the others before the last one). So let's call it trailer number 2. This is the sixth game in the series (if we ignore the non-numbered entries). So let's call it GTA 6 2 x 6 is... 12 oh my god guys it's real
I don't know if I've ever bounced off a game as hard as I've bounced off Death Stranding, so I've gone back to my gaming comfort food, Elden Ring, while I reassess
Best month in a long time for me. Nine Sols has been on my watchlist for a while. Wuchang I'm intrigued about but not enough to buy. And FIFA a few weeks before the world cup? Go on then
After finally finishing Nioh 3 last week, I needed something a bit slower paced, so I started Tomb Raider Remastered, expecting to play the first couple of levels for nostalgia and then dropping it.
I've just completed the Tomb of Tihocan and I'm loving it. The game still holds up.
@CaptD Tory initiative, they got it through in '23, just before they got the boot. They scrapped it at first, but the age verification/online security companies kicked off and eventually got their way
Nioh 3, it's seemingly endless, or maybe I'm playing it too slowly. Perhaps I should stop running a bath every time I find a hot spring, for maximum immersion

Best month in a long time for me
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 631
I've started Death Stranding and it's bonkers, as expected. It's also handy because I can go and do my weekly shop during the cutscenes.

Re: Meet the Man Making PS5 Manuals for Your Physical Games
What gets me is that they still put the clips on the inside of the boxes, to hold the non-existent manuals in place. It's like they're mocking us
