@Leeg Yeah I didn't find it to be "a very powerful narrative tool" either

Whats special about you guys that you get 5%?

@UltimateOtaku91 This is an excellent comment, bravo.

how about some trophies for shadow of the erdtree?

Yeah thank god that didnt happen

Hard to do this. Snake eater is an 11/10 game on story and overall gameplay. The controls were never a 10, but for the times maybe an 8, but I also think it mattered less when controls were kind of ass everywhere. The modernized control changes are overall good but not perfect, which kind of hampers the overall product that is Delta. So Delta maybe like a 9 or an 8.5, but the bones are S tier.

this art looks great, big fan of stuff like this instead of a generic picture of hero and nothing else

Well, if they want my money on PS5 eventually, I will certainly give it to them.

@ShogunRok Cool! Thanks for the info. Is the game harder or easier than Hotline Miami?

I think for their multiplayer stuff, the end goal is to make money. More people playing these, the more microtransactions occurring, the more money. It was console exclusive for 1.5 years on top of that, but was already on PC. I don't think we will see this for some of the single player stuff, but maybe we will as the market keeps changing. If Xbox is done with consoles, then there isn't much of a reason to wall games off of it because cause PS consoles will sell regardless.

How hard is the platinum?

Played Diablo 4 on it for 13 hours during a layover in Frankfurt, DE. PS5 was back in the States. Worked great.

More people playing this game is good for business. Also for the long term health of the game.

I beat Mindseye, got the platinum, so maybe have more to say about it than people who saw a few minutes of it on YouTube. Granted its the internet so anybody can saw whatever they want, but 3/10 is too harsh, more like a 5.5/10, maybe a 6. Lots of bugs, AI is v dumb, shooting is very simplistic and the overall narrative gets pretty weak at the end, but it was fun. Double AA. Also this guy did a good job acting in it.

@Jswift56 lol I'm guessing you didn't try the beta?

@DennisReynolds Yeah thats probably fair to think, but unless they make some huge changes, and given the feedback huge changes to a wide variety of aspects of the game, and now that the IP is somewhat tarnished, hard to see how they're going to turn it into something that people want or will be willing to give a second chance.

If i had a choice between Marathon or Fairgame$ I'm taking Marathon 10/10 times.

Damn. Given the current climate as PS this ***** probably getting canned in 6 months.

@DennisReynolds Thanks!

For those that have watched this, how spoilery is this for Part 2?

I mean, OW1 almost didnt feel like a full price game, IDK what theyre thinking with this one.

Would point out that Peace Walker and MGSV are pretty similar in terms of one iteration to the next.

Glad its linear actually, probably going to play it now, and great price!

Pretty smart of him to get this franchise off the grand and then license the IP out while making new IP himself. Can't wait for 2 myself

Game's never coming out

Its better than Concord, but the art style is giving me Concord vibes.

Really wonder what the budget was for this. 500 k is great, but average sale price for this was prob $40 so its only $20mil so far, no doubt it will prob keep selling for years, but I still dont get how they made this for less than 20 mil

For me, what I liked most about SH2R was the surreal vibe of the town and the characters. Who knows at this point whether this game has any of that tone. What I liked second best was the creepy design and aesthetic of the levels, which i think this trailer shows they might be pulling off again. So yeah, I'm interested.

Entropy Center was pretty fun if a little janky.

This could be pretty cool honestly

This is April fools still right?

Honestly that was a pretty great trailer. Some much overlap in so many directions still pulpy but also advertising. Whoever wrote that A+

Helldivers x Mandalorian

Do the armored core games have trophy support?

this is one of the lamest ones

There's no way this was made by one man. Maybe it started as an idea in 1 mans head, but this product was probably made by hundreds of people.

@LogicStrikesAgain Yeah the term seems to be used kind of loosely. Is Death Stranding 2 indie if all it means is an independent developer?

Idk if you can really say its an indie when sony is publishing it

Do you recommend having played the first game or is it ok to start with the sequel??

NGL as a PS only gamer this is pretty awesome news. With Sony somewhat dropping the ball on ps5 exclusives recently its been great to have some cool Xbox stuff to look forward to. I love the Sony IPs and hope for a resurgent late gen ps5, but with all this xbox stuff it hasnt been so bad. Really hard to see though how this is benefitting xbox other than through game sales as I think its clear without a doubt at this point that PS is the best place to play.

Looks sick, fun that the series is back is more than retro

@AlexPorto Pretty skeptical at this point that there even is a venom game

Bring it on. But seriously I just don't get why anyone would buy an xbox at this point, gamespass notwithstanding

Was hoping for some pro support ngl

This is the type of free dookie they should have been doing regularly for the past couple years instead of fixing the game.

@Balaam_ Exactly my thought, and a PSA for anyone looking at this, if last year was anything to go off this is no guarantee these games are coming out in 2025

@PloverNutter Huh thats interesting

@get2sammyb Yes, this. How can it be worse? It defies logic.

all that advertising and its THREE MONTHS ONLY???

@LogicStrikesAgain logical
