Yep, premium just died.
Essential I should have stocked up on last time it was on sale. I’ll grab a couple years before this if I can and think it’ll hold.

A 100+ hour with a bunch of updates that say “restart the game”.
I love what I’ve played of OS2, but I’m glad I’ve been playing the patched definitely edition, not just the definitive edition. I hope they don’t do the same thing here, or try to minimize that.

@CastelloGG That’s a niche market. There’s a very small number of people that understand you can even hook up a KB&M on a PS5, and a niche if that small portion that would even do it.
It might be nice for a few people, but it wouldn’t make much of a sales difference.

Fantastic! Sometimes I wonder if the extra month wait will be for the better if I'm honest.

Good, I always knew the S was a bad idea. MS didn’t realize a dev would do this with a big blockbuster game, and now realized it may have been a while, if ever, they got BG3.
A weaker console was always going to hold things back.
I predicted this, and I think the S is going to start losing games at some point, or get terrible versions. Then MS will have more damage control due to another bad decision.
I hope the UK keeps blocking that Activision deal and forces MS to actually make good product decisions for the first time since the 360.

I should probably just vary what I do with my time some more if the normal TV won't suffice to be honest.

Bill Clinton kid was hilarious and waited for the From dev to finish (which he said he specifically did to not interrupt his moment), blended in perfectly, and spoke with such confidence while spouting utter nonesense, finished, and left while getting applause from the confused audience. That was an act and a performance.
This was a random heckler and just disruptive and interruptive with none of the attributes the kid had. Just poor and obvious.

I think Laurian (I’m sure that’s misspelled) with BG3 is taking BioWare’s spot in the industry. Bioware made the old BG games BTW, so that’s happening with BW own legacy in a way.

@Nepp67 None of the gore was important or really needed for the story and they absolutely did keep dropping F bombs in the game. Many more than needed to be there.
None of what you said required an M rating, the Eikon scenes weren’t gorey and the heavy topics don’t make a game rated M. Much heavier things have been in T games.
In also said it being M was edgelordy, not the game in general itself being full of it.

@DennisReynolds It’s FF in almaot everything other than being very RPGy. It was FF in the more important ways IMO.

Being rated M may have also hurt it a bit, and after playing through the entire game, it really didn’t need the M rating and the decision to make it rated M felt more edgelord than anything.
They made it M to make it M.
Fantastic game though

@LiquidouSnake I expect at least 1080P for any rerelease yes, and also, this is an expensive rerelease, not a $20-25 cheap bundle.

@XboxTheBestBox You say this like Xbox isn't getting the same 720P version from Konomi. It is. Xbox is getting the exact same treatment here.

Immortals just snuck up. It needed reviews and stuff beforehand to not get lost amidst AC.

@Zanao Where did they announce this? I haven't seen this when I've looked.

Crossplay? That would be a great update.

@somnambulance it currently doesn't have cross play, just cross progression as it stands.

I'm not sure casuals will want to play an older port like that. I imagine it might get more attention than sales. I also hope for that.

It looks cool, but I wondered how they can deal with jank. I fence in real life, so I could be extra interested in this, but I will also compare it to the real thing lol.

@RedRiot193 You’re just adding to what I’ve said. I said they released a 3/10 game. I didn’t say it still was. The point is that they broke trust gave gamers explicitly good reason to not have as much faith or goodwill. I never said they didn’t fix it, just that the changed perception of CDPrRD was anything but bipolar.
They’ve done a fair bit to some trust and goodwill back, but they how was loss of it bi-polar? That’s what the entire point here lies on.

@RedRiot193 It’s a valid point that CDProject Red wasn’t the gaming community being bi-polar. If they hadn’t released a 3/10 game that wouldn’t have happened.
Maybe we shouldn’t have hyped them up so much, but, that’s a different criticism to saying they got turned on after going from a 10/10 to a 3/10 at this publication, and number of others too. I don’t think that’s ever happened before TBH as well.
Now how is that “hating” exactly?

@Geep You’re forgetting about PC and Mac, IOS and Android, etc. anything that’s requires an actual computer has long dealt with this, and continued to do so as a total monopoly hasn’t formed.

It looks cool, but I heard it was the quest version and not the PC version, and that may push away. Otherwise probably want this.

@tameshiyaku You say that like 2077 didn’t pretty much earn all of that. It’s still not the game they promise yet. That wasn’t gamers being flippant, it was the faith being misplaced.

I'm so glad I got another 2TB of Storage. AC isn't not huge, but with BG3 coming a couple weeks later, it's such a great QoL improvement.

You know, I wonder if waiting a month will be a blessing depending on the number of fixes. I understand that Original Sin 2 got so many updates that said "requires a new game" in a 100+ hour game like anyone who played before the update had time for that. If they change or fix anything with stuff you're stuck with the entire game, I'll be very glad for the months wait. I hope they don't do that again though.
This will be the most unreplayable but most replayable game ever made.

@ShogunRok I think they have been for a while now with older games after the remasters of the old games....

Having regular cinematics and a proper DnD combat system are exciting me a lot. This sounds like it won't be as hard and time consuming as D:OS2's combat, which is a great game, but combat takes a long time and many tries. It also helps that I already know the rules.
The one down side of looking things up though, is that from EA there's whole bunch of wrong info out there.

That doesn’t sound great…. Especially because it’s probably not going to tie some of the horny things to playing a bad guy.
However, they did announce what I believe is a nudity filter, so that will probably be convicted by that to pick it up.

Why does the fact that Madden and EA FC is on here but Armored Core and BG3 are not on the essentials seems suspicious?
This isn’t a natural list nor does it seem like any sort of honest recommendation.

I’d rather we try again and get a team that can actually take the story of Twisted Metal instead of replacing it with a generic one since they don’t know what do with the story given to them.
I guess good for the people who like, but Twisted Metal 2 has a special place in my heart and I’m a bit of a purist with it. And I think it had more potential than the premise given.

I can’t get past how generic they made the premise because they didn’t know how to actually utilize the concept of Twisted Metal. I’m glad it’s not a total disaster, but it to be lacking is basic creativity and it needed to be more than a silly romp. Twisted Metal is actually known, especially after black, to have some interesting story. Yes, comedy is important to TM, but so is the dark story of it.

What Chinese games have actually released and delivered? I hear a lot about vaporware with them.

I’m confused, everyone here send to hate it. As in, everyone who has Kiel my played a Twisted Metal game seems unhappy. It might be a disconnect between those with an expectation and their who don’t.

I mean, no PS5 port doomed it. If they were going to support it this long, they needed to put it on PS5 to keep it relevant, and they chose not to.
It gave still turned out this way, but a proper effort wasn’t made.

This sounds terrible. It’s a weird TM fan fiction. Sony needs to be careful with its IPs. The moment this didn’t have Calypso running a tournament it should have been canned. It could have been new, instead it’s a generic pair apocalyptic story that steered clear of doing something more interesting because the show writers didn’t have the talent for it and they knew it.

Most well received? All I’ve heard about is how no one can actuseemt I find a match, and the demo with one mode was dead despite trying many times.

Can we just have Tencent banned from doing this anymore? I'm actually a bit serious here.

This is just ridiculous. Absolute insanity. Also right as a game is parading bear sex. Definitely a double standard going on here.

No new features, and not even more system stability to prevent my vertical PS5 from falling over, dang.

@wiiware To start. He ate anyone and everyone. Including a child who wanted his balloon back 😂

Did anyone one else think this was about Skull and Bones for a moment? I think the title is a bit confusing.

@wiiware Venom ate people in the T rated The Amazing Spider Man on the PS2.

I’d be more excited if this was like Amazing Spider-Man and you played as Venom too. That’d be so much cooler than playing as Miles Morales too.

I'm glad I bought Stray now. It was a way to get Stray at launch, but now it's gone. This is why I don't like these services.

I’m honestly shocked this is for a flat game and not a PSVR2 game. It sounds interesting, but not $500 interesting.
Mirage also isn’t looking good enough to justify even if it was potentially worth $500.

I owned TM2 on the PS3, so this will be a great addition assuming I can download separate like many other PS1 games.

@GamingFan4Lyf If it get blocked, I personally say it’s worth it and it is the gov is doing its job. And if not, the problem is less the waste, and more the basic failure to perform its gov.
COD staying on PS is also not a fact. Not at all. There is a lot reason from history to assume COD will be gone after 10 years, which means MS is just lying through its teeth.

@Kylekgh Sex and violence are completely different and provoke entirely different reactions. There's a reason we allow kids to take a martial arts class, but not a be sexy class. We play violence with kids all the time. We do not with the other one.
Scary is also very much the wrong word. Disliking plain degeneracy does not mean sex is scary.

Also, it's not giving as many choices as possible. Romance doesn't mean sex, but if you want to romance this druid, it means a bear sex scene. That's giving no agency in the romance and denying my ability to choose. It would be giving as many choices without this scene.

@MikeOrator In general, I like romance options, and I don't want graphic sexual scenes and whatnot shoved my way because I chose romance (which doesn't equal sex).
DnD pen and paper has a persuasion skill. Obviously that's not immoral. Can someone turn DnD into immoral smut? Yes, and many DnD horror stories happen because someone wanted to turn the game into smut. In actual DnD, that's almost always a ticket to disaster.

This just seems excessive, and I don't see why BG needs explicit sex scenes in the first place.
@mikeorator MY DnD games don't have naked people having sex with bears. BG is the kind of games I'm the market for, but all the sex scenes are turning me away from the game.
