I was really looking forward to this until I played the Stadia demo a few weeks ago and I pretty much lost all interest. It's not terrible it just seems average or slightly below and doesn't really do anything that makes it a must play right now.
Very hyped for this I really enjoyed Origins and Odyssey both. I put roughly 100 hours in each including all the expansions. With the delay of Cyberpunk until December I might actually get to finish this before it drops.
I played the original trilogy for the first time right before Andromeda was set to release and it is one of my fondest gaming memories ever(late 30s here). So the hype for Andromeda was through the roof. The first 10 or so hours I was like this is fine it's gonna get better soon except it never did. If anything it got worse.
I've never been much of a trophy hunter. I pretty much play the campaign through and move on. Ghost of Tsushima is the only Platinum I have and now they've went and added more to that list lol. I spent over 100 hours in Odyssey with all the DLC and I still think there might be an island or 2 that I've never been to. Regardless I'm absolutely stoked for Valhalla
I think removing the wishlist was unnecessary and really doesn't make sense. I kept mine full of games I was interested in and when something went on sale I would usually end up getting it. I am hopeful it will return at some point
Having recently become interested in strategy games I started playing The Banner Saga last night and have not wanted to put it down. It's been such a wonderful experience. The story and characters are so well done. Bought the trilogy a while back so after this last chapter wraps up it's on to part 2. Nothing else on the radar until Valhalla then that should keep me busy until Cyberpunk
@JapaneseSonic same here I already have a One X and honestly I've played more 360 titles on it than One games. I'm assuming that I'm good for a few years and won't need to upgrade because I really want to play Hellblade 2
I played through the trilogy for the first time ever right before Andromeda came out and it's one of my favorite gaming experiences ever. Andromeda was a dud in comparison. The gameplay in 1 is a bit stiff so it would be nice if they would have done an overhaul of it but I'm happy with this regardless
Already own both of these but would be a great month for those who don't. Two very solid titles but without something at least somewhat more mainstream as part of the selection I'm not sure I buy this leak. We shall see
Bought this on release and played probably 15 hours and put it down until a few days ago and man I'm hooked. Not sure what the difference is but I'm enjoying it a ton.
Konami said that they were not working on a new Silent Hills but they didn't say that Sony wasn't. Makes sense especially if they are just sitting back raking in profits for loaning out the IP
My Deluxe edition just showed up from Best Buy can't wait to get started. Was in High School when the original came out and loved it. Still give the edge to 6 for best FF overall though
I'm pretty satisfied with what games we have coming up in the near future. Sure I'd like a Demon's Souls or Snake Eater Remake but what I really wish Square Enix would give us is The Soul Reaver Series Remakes
I'm perfectly fine with the delay especially considering the circumstances. I don't think they want to do a digital only release that would really hurt the stores that sell physical copies. Shipping something this anticipated and doing a worldwide release may be about impossible in the coming weeks. Plenty of amazing games out there to play still. Cheers everyone stay safe
I have an Xbox One X which is more powerful than my PS4 Pro and I still much prefer PlayStation. It's about the games for me and I find Sonys first party games superior by a long shot. Also I much prefer the Dualshock 4 over the Xbox controller. To each their own though and I'm glad we have choices because as gamers we all win
I really wanted to like this played it at launch and was very bored with it. I've been thinking of giving it another try as it's on sale right now. Any tips that would help get into this
More Nioh 2 getting better at not getting killed as much lol l. Really need to finish up several games that are close to completion but I probably won't. Jedi Fallen Order, Tales of Berseria, Dragon Quest 11 just to name a few. RE3 and FF7 are so close and no word on if Best Buy are delaying those deliveries so I'm hoping not
@Stevethejedi I really enjoyed I Am Setsuna. It wasn't the second coming of Chrono Trigger like some hoped but it was a very enjoyable experience. Also the music caught a lot of flack but I loved it
Not worried about the hardware I'm sure it will be more than capable. What I'm interested in is the games specifically if we have Demon's Souls as a launch title
Well I said I wasn't going to get it but ended up getting the Special Edition today. I'll have my hands full but hopefully have this finished by the time RE3 releases
I do miss the good old days of buying a game and it was complete. Not to say that patches as time go on aren't a nice thing but we're buying games that either aren't finished or won't fit on one disc more often than not it seems. There are still those without internet in 2020 and it seems unfair to sell a complete product that isn't really finished yet. If it won't fit on 1 disc then use 2. They're really not that expensive. And if it's not finished stop trying to sell it to me I'll gladly wait until it's done then buy it.
At this point we know so little about the new consoles that if they get delayed what is there to even be upset about. I'm sure I'll get a PS5 day one but right now there's so many awesome games available that I can wait. Once they announce Demon's Souls Remastered as a launch title I will be way more hyped. Realistically though we've got RE3, FF7, TLOU2, Ghost of Tsushima all hitting pretty soon then followed up by Cyberpunk 2077 it's gonna be a great year for gaming. And these are just my most anticipated not to mention everything else coming out.
Just finished the demo and I'm very much sold. I was there for the original release and absolutely loved it. This hit a lot of the nostalgic feels but it also freshened things up quite a bit. Combat was different but way better than 15 imo. Character models and voice acting seemed really good to me. Color me impressed by what I've seen. Looking for to the full release
Started playing The Sinking City and I gotta say I'm having a good time with it. It's janky and unpolished in places sure but it has it's own sense of charm about it. After listening to Call of Cthulhu audiobook again this goes along nicely
I think I'm at a point of Souls Like fatigue. Loved Dark Souls 1-3 and Bloodbourne. Only played a bit of Nioh and enjoyed it. Sekiro though is where everything changed. That game crushed me after about 20 hours in. Im just not sure I have it in me for another experience. Although I'm definitely intrigued by the concept of Elden Ring. Who am I kidding I'm gonna download this now and give it a try
@BalsBigBrother I finished Routes A-E and once everything was finished and seeing things happen through different perspectives I was really moved by it all. I hope you end up enjoying it. It is certainly a unique gaming experience
Finally finished Red Dead 2 after playing off and on since day 1. What an absolute classic. Arthur Morgan is my favorite character ever in a game slightly edging out Geralt although The Witcher 3 overall is my favorite game. Absolutely no desire to play anything other than FF7 Remake. Can't wait for that then Cyberpunk 2077
Code Veronica was such a great game when it released on Dreamcast but trying to go back to it now it definitely shows it's age. Here's to hoping for a remake of that one day
Enjoyed the original 3 games on PS3 with Uncharted 2 being an absolute classic but for whatever reason I could never get into 4. Had it since day 1 and it sits there unfinished still.
Hello everyone been lurking for a while. Played the original when it first released and just recently started playing through it again and I gotta say it holds up very well. The only thing that I'm curious about is supposedly this first installment of the remake only covers until you leave Midgar. Well I just made it out on the original and it took about 5 hours. I really hope they don't fill part 1 up with useless fetch quests much rather them expand the story and characters even more
