If next gen is as disappointing as this gen overall. Im skipping. Thats not to say there haven’t been classics. But this gen is just saaaad in comparison to all other PlayStations.
Fable 1 and 2 are great. But it’s not because of this guy. Hes a quack and has contributed little to the gaming community beyond being the guy who made WAY OVERHYPING your game popular.
I mean. Yes and no. I still very much enjoy a lot of their games. However I am more selective these days in what I devote my time to. A lot of that is because games are longer now. But my favorite console is PSX. That should tell you everything. That console had imo the most varied library.
This guy has to be kidding around right? Right? I can’t believe he did that without the intention of just trying to get attention. Which is still totally sad.
He’s overblowing it. However, this is far and away the worst PS gen yet imo. There are a few s tier exceptional. Returnal and death stranding 2… beyond that not much at all that’s current gen specific that stands out. Clair Obscure is my goty. But it’s not a ps specific game.
The gameplay looks fantastic. But that constant flow of corny dialogue totally ruins it for me. I don’t mind corny dialogue mind you. Old resi games are my favorites. But if it’s non stop like it appears to be in the trailer… I dunnnooooo. The kids voice actor grates like nails on my brain.
This is not for me anymore. I miss the days of 40 hours being the max on a game. For example I played P5R and while it was a great game it just NEVER ended. By the 5th palace I was trying to race through the game just to get it over with and the impact of the finale fell a bit flat as a result of fatigue
Got deep into CO33. It took me several hours to lock in with the combat and systems. But once I got Perrys down. Oooofffff what a game!!!!! It’s got its hooks in me now and I can’t wait till the next time I have time to play it
@PuppetMaster I get it. But all the titles you mentioned are leagues above the marvel stuff to me. It really shows what they are capable of. It’s just personal preference
That’s too bad insomniac has become the marvel developer. They were so good at original content. Not to say their marvel output is bad. Personally I’m sick to death of marvel and would prefer original characters and worlds. But if there was any character that deserves/needs a banger game, its spawn.
The thing with this game is it’s just boring. The story isn’t great and at its core just isn’t there. Cyberpunk at least there was a great game to be unburied under all the problems it had when it launched. 2.0 and beyond is one of my favorite games of all time.

@UltimateOtaku91 that’s so wild to me. I have add so anymore than a few hours at a time is when I loose interest.

Good idea for long session gamers. But I’ve never drained a full battery in a single session so I’m indifferent to this personally

Re: Mega Publisher EA Agrees to $55 Billion Buyout by Saudi Arabia, Silver Lake, Affinity Partners
lol I mean for me… this is a lateral move. EA was already the worst. Kind of hard to go lower when you’re already at rock bottom.

Re: Sony to 'Advance Position as Creative Leader in Single Player Experiences'
Saros is easily my most anticipated game at the moment. It’s been a minute since I bought a game day 1. But that will definitely be it!
