I really enjoyed this game. It's not perfect by any means, but a great first game out of the gate. I think if they just made it next-gen only, they could make it even better.
I started to feel less good about FF after X. Upon retrospect, I like that game a lot more now than I did back when I first played it. I was put off by the voice acting and the lack of a real world-map. I also thought the setting was kinda dull.
I also was hyped about XII. I put about 40 hours into that game and then quit after being killed in-between some very key save points. I was never captivated by the main story in that game and I didn't care for the gambit system. Too much micromanagment.
13 was a disappointment as was 15. I was shocked at how good 14 was/is and super thrilled that 7:Remake turned out so good.
I can't wait for this one. Feels like they've taken all that they've learned in the past 15 years and corrected a lot of the issues. Yoshi P is a genius and I have no doubt this will be excellent.
The big X factor is a persons right to watch it or not watch it. Personally I'm happy to see more footage. I don't understand why people complain when they can just ignore it.
I'd love to know what constitutes "abuse"? Trolls are trolls. Doesn't make their behavior morally right, but I feel like the best way to deal with that is just to ignore them. Maybe that's what she's doing?
Saying someone sucked at something isn't abuse. If that were the case, every sports commentator worth their salt would be out of a job.
I personally hate micromanaging stuff like this, so hopefully they'll give some basic presets that I can just set and forget. Having more flexibility will be good for those that like to tinker, though.
This is timely. I literally just ordered mine yesterday.
I don' think this will ever replace my normal flat-screen gaming hobby. It's just a supplemental to that. The fact that it can provide experiences that a simple 2D setup cant do gives it viability for me regardless as to whether or not it's supported in the long term. I hope to at least see some updates to past PS4 titles to round the system out a bit better, but either way I'm still going to be glad to have something like this on hand.
It sucks but it's honestly not surprising. The price of many things are going up, worldwide. That's what a Global shutdown will do to you. We didn't really think we'd see no consequences did we? Sucks though. For sure.

Re: Watch 25 Minutes of Final Fantasy 16 PS5 Gameplay in Glorious 4K
As pretty much a life long Final Fantasy fan, I'm pumped!
I spent 10 years waiting for Versus 13 (15) to finally come out and that was a major disappointment. This is looking to be the total opposite.

Outside of Madden I really don't know what EA even makes anymore to be honest.

Looks phenomenal. I appreciated the humor and candor.
Re: Poll: Was The Last of Us - Episode 3 the Best One Yet?
An incredibly stupid and pointless episode. Not for me at all. Doesn't serve the story either. The game's story line of this was far superior.
