Well surely this movie will be more about family than hell diving anyways

Its been a great gen that has been carried by 3rd party games. There has been some solid first party games though like Astro, Gran Turismo 7, Ghost of Yotei, God of War, Spider-man. But for being out for 5 years it is hard not to think about what could have been. We really should have had a new Uncharted game. Throw in like 3 or 4 more blockbuster exclusives and it could have been an amazing gen so far.

They should change the name to Marathons so they can end the name with a dollar sign

F2P...lol no thanks.

@twitchtvpat fair enough, I guess the future remains to be seen. What they price it at and how they market it will be a huge factor. I also dont see it taking over the console market, but definitely get a good piece of the pie

Also imagine with this paradigm, consoles can come out at a rapid pace. Trade in programs, monthly subsidized payments like cell phones, contracts, the good ol residual dollar comes into play. This could be nuts when you think about it. Gaming is ripe for the picking. I dont support that but I could definitely see it happening.

@twitchtvpat yeah this definitely is made for the console masses not for enthusiasts that visit gaming sites. It is not confusing to me at all, its supposed to be a new gaming console, it is not geared towards traditional PC gamers that want max power. They'll be able to slap 4k on the box and market it as the next best console with free online. If the money is right, I know I keep saying that but that really is the big key here, but if it is, Valve will pac man up console marketshare fairly quickly. Games are cheaper and way more of them. And btw Sony puts their games on there too.

@ATaco Exactly this, Sony will have to change some stuff.

@twitchtvpat I think you are overestimating the knowledge of the average consumer. Most people do not visit digital foundry or know the difference between 4k upscaling and native 4k. If this is priced right, I think people are going to buy them and realize Steam games are more plentiful and cheaper. Sony will have to answer by being more aggressive with pricing which is great for everyone. Not to mention free online play with most titles. This may be the shake up the industry needs with the slow death of the Xbox. Suddenly console buyers have an option to get way way way more software. Games sell systems. Again though this is all if it is priced right.

@twitchtvpat Does it do 4k/60 or not? I read somewhere that it does, even though there is an asterisk. If it does 4k/60 (even virtually) and comes in around the same price, its definitely a problem for Sony.

Its all about price. If they come in around the same price and performance as PS5, Sony has a big problem on their hands.

STREETO BURGERSO

These are going to bomb at that price. No idea how anyone could justify this

I am still so upset about not having the War of the Lions content. Why???? They even included the old version for purists. Like give a freaking option at the beginning if you want it included or not. So frustrating

Silver Lake is also involved in the TikTok deal... nothing nefarious going on here.

Own the media, own the population

Those screen grabs look really blurry for the most part. Great review though and about what I expected. My no $70 games stand will hold though, so I will get this one later once it discounts.

I am gutted the War of the Lions content was cut. I dont think I'm going to get this now, and I was a fan of the original version. Why wouldn't they put in the extra effort to make this a definitive version? It makes no sense.

After careful deliberations on a response to this incredibly insightful information that was disseminated through these videos, I feel that the only pertinent reply is... "lol wut"

@PuppetMaster By the time they are done we will be on PS9 and everything will be ready for another remake

Oh wait they already do

@Dan12836666 Yeah I dont know why people cant see why this is a problem. Let them get away with this bs and it will get worse. They will start piece mealing games to us.

What was annoying about the first one is some of the long traversals between closest save and boss fights. I got tired of going through levels just to reach a boss for the 10th time. A shame because the game was excellent except for that.

Thats actually pretty cool.. My PS5 is upstairs and I use my Portal when I'm downstairs. Being able to just dock it to any TV downstairs would be like having a second console down there.

The game is so different now. I need to download it and restart. I played it right after release and probably put about 60 hours in, but it was mainly farming / building.

@nessisonett Looks like it was drawn by a 3 year old lol

Wait for reviews people

Unicorn Overlord is so good

Id switch off with her on deaths

Larian built Sonic the Hedgehog confirmed

Been waiting for Relink to hit PS Plus

@SMJ Great minds

Konsider me kraving the new Mortal Kombat—kan’t kontrol my kompulsion! Krushing kombos, klassic karakter kameos, and karnage in kinematic kuality? Kount me in, kause this kombat kid needs a konsistent kick of koolness. Kredit kard’s kringing but it kan’t konvince me to kancell this kollision of karnal karnage and kultured kombat. K'mon, it's klassik!

Hopefully you can shut off the voice of that fairy. What's with jrpgs always having annoyingly squeaky voices?

@EfYI Don't misteak me, I love stakes. Just not when the steaks are high.

@Sketti These games are less about getting good and more about dying over and over so you remember the patterns and timing. It is artificial difficulty hidden behind memorization. For those that have time and get the enjoyment of repeating things over and over so they get the memory down, cool. I just dont have the time anymore to do that. When you take the "difficulty" aspect away, this genre of games are just lesser RPGs. I think people just enjoy them so much because they wear completion as a badge of honor.

Crap month for me since the headliner is by most accounts a frustrating game

Getting closer to v1.0

@Reeneman Bummer. Was excited when I saw they updated it. No matter what I do, the HDR has always been more washed out than the non HDR. They have no clue what they are doing on this front.

I got bored with the game really fast

They need more time for metaverse / dimensional travel implementation.

I couldn't give this show a shot because of the casting

Looks stressful

@Derbiss I look at it as 10/10 is the best game I ever played. Is this game as good as, or now the best game Ive ever played? If so, it gets a 10

@LiamCroft Will I be lost if I just start playing from here? Never played the first one.

Nah, game is beautiful but the characters aren't likeable and its just not a fun experience in my opinion. The opposite of Uncharted series with super likeable characters and just fun adventures.

Who didn't see this coming? Their dream of microtransactions should be mated with what they're good at. If all of these studios were working on expansions and add on content to their masterpieces, as well as new IP in the realm of what they are good at, they would be making bank already.

@16BitHero Agreed, Outlaws failing is some of the worst gaming news in recent years. I also waited for patches and a sale and the game is fantastic. A sequel with improvements on customization, added characters, new locales etc would have been amazing. Its such a shame. First Ubisoft game I've beaten in ages

This game was definitely a step back.

I really hope a follow up to Outlaws is in the cards

They dont care, its another way to push everyone to all digital. They'll just say "fine" and will not release a disc at all.
