Just as an aside, I'm curious as to whether this was played on the base PS5 or on the Pro. I'm playing on the Pro and I've had very few issues (if any, really). In general, most of my VR gaming on the Pro has been a better experience than it used to be on my launch console.

Granted, I haven't finished it yet (maybe half way), but I've been loving it and have encountered zero bugs.

I didn't think this would be for me, and I was right. Just a chaotic multiplayer mess, and I really hate multiplayer games. I love comics, so I thought I'd try it, but I played it for like 10 minutes before deleting it. That said, I hope that everyone who is enjoying it has a great time! It just wasn't for me.

@get2sammyb sorry, I meant the gameplay. It LOOKS great. I'm just not really into Overwatch/multi-player games of any kind, really. I like to play solo. But I'm interested in checking it out.

Comic nerd, here. I'm not really into this style of game, but it's free, so I'll certainly try it.

I beat the story mode in MK1 and messed around with other modes for a few days after that before getting bored and never going back. First time for an MK game. I LOVED MK11, but this one just didn't resonate with me for some reason.

I love mine, but at the same time, I told my friend who is interested in getting one, "Is it better? Yes. Do you need it? Probably not."

I do love the higher and smoother frame rates, though.

I think Valhalla (which I put 40-60 hours into before quitting because I was bored and it felt like it would never end) put me off of AC games forever.

I’m loving mine, but I told my friend, “Is it better? Yes. Do you need it? Probably not.”

Still, loving it.

RoboCop on quality mode is buttery smooth now and seems like it’s definitely not 30 fps anymore.

Looking forward to trying some of my VR games on mine tomorrow but I haven't even had time to play a pancake game yet as I just got home from work.

@Weebleman it really is! I usually play VR sitting down in a nice computer desk chair (I usually just game on the couch) and sitting in my ship in NMS feels almost real.

@Loamy that's the first one I'm testing tonight!

I picked mine up this morning. Had time to attach the disc drive and install my SSD. Made sure it all worked okay and then I had to leave for work. Looking forward to messing around with it tonight or tomorrow morning.

@Keyblade-Dan seconded.

I'm hoping for RoboCop: Rogue City (Yes, seriously).

I voted "it's solid" because I enjoyed the game quite a bit until Venom showed up. I hated everything they did with him. But the stuff leading up to that was stellar.

I haven't bought a physical copy of a game since the PS3/360 generation, but I still bought a PS5 with a disc drive because I DO still buy physical discs when it comes to movies. If I get the Pro (up in the air), I'm not sure if I'd get the drive or not. I could always just move my 4K player from the other room.

Gameplay-wise, I loved this game, but as a big Eddie Brock Venom fan, the latter half of the story was a huge miss for me. I've been awaiting DLC to see if he'd get introduced, or if they'd "fix" Venom somehow. I guess I'm just going to have to accept that I hate what they did with Venom and move on.

It's disappointing as I played the first game several times (and Miles twice), but haven't felt the need to return to this one, even as pretty as it is. I guess I just won't be. Oh, well.

I only just picked this up, myself.

@Contimaloris for real 😆 I'm actually considering upgrading when I get my next bonus. 🤔

What I want to know is this: can we still install our own SSD? I would assume so, but I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere.

@TIEMs pretty liberal American here, and I loved the game. I didn't get any of that at all. Would I want to hang out with Deacon and Boozer IRL? Probably not, but I don't need video game characters to be proxies of me/my beliefs in order to enjoy their story. It's just a game.

I love Days Gone. I think I completed it three times. My hope is that a remaster is to test the waters for possible interest in a sequel.

I'm only about 4 hours in, but having entered with tempered expectations, I'm actually really enjoying myself. I'm not very big on the two Jedi games, even got bored with the second one and stopped playing. This one feels more like inhabiting one of my favorite franchises. That said, I don't hate Ubisoft games as much as some. I only play one every few years, so I'm not as bored with the formula as someone would be who plays a lot of them.

I'd never even heard of this, but now I'm definitely curious...

@Beetlebum91 I was just going to say, I had fond memories of this, got it for my PS4/5 some time ago and didn't up playing very far as the controls are just awful. I'm confident they'll be updated, but I guess we'll see.

I got mine at launch and still use it fairly regularly. I really like it, but I obviously wish there was more first party support.

This is neither here nor there, but I don’t think I’ve bought a physical copy of a game since I went digital back when I had my 360. I get the pros and cons of both sides, but it’s just an observation. What is that? Nearly 20 years? Makes me feel old (spoiler alert: I am indeed old).

Just looking forward to POE getting some more exposure.

I love creating original characters, so although this game wasn't really on my radar (my backlog is huge), I might mess around with this.

I got mine at launch and I'm really happy with it. I was just playing it a few hours ago.

I don't even own a PC (haven't in many years), so the idea of a different VR platform isn't really viable for me.

I get that it's not for everyone. For me? I love it.

I got the upgrade, but I ended up picking up the Part 1 remaster because I haven't played the first game in many years. I'm going to play them back to back.

I've already beaten Rogue City three times, but I'll give it another round when this drops. Hopefully, we'll get some DLC news, too!

I still have to finish the second half of this game. I haven’t touched it in almost a year. I didn’t dislike it, btw, but I got a bit bored. Been meaning to dive back in…

I got a PS4 very early and was happy with my PS4 Pro. Having had a PS5 since launch, I’m still very happy with it. It would really depend on what the upgrades are and how much of an upgrade they are. I just bought a new 75” 4K tv and won’t be getting a new one for many years, so it would really depend on what kind of improvements we’d see in the system itself and whether or not they are worth it to me. At the moment, that’s completely unknown, of course.

@Mephisto2869 I have a bunch of NECA, MAFEX and a few Hot Toys, too. Nice to see a fellow Robo fan here!

The gun sounds a bit off, but I’m more annoyed that it doesn’t have the distinctive flames shooting out of the sides, lol. Weller’s voice I don’t mind because the man is old. I didn’t expect it to sound exactly the same. It’s close enough for me.

I have nits I could pick, but they don’t detract from the experience for me. I still play RoboCop vs the Terminator on my Sega Genesis from time to time because it’s the last good Robo game, and it came out in 1993! I’m willing to forgive Rogue City a few nits for it being as good as it is. Your mileage may vary, of course.

Besides that, I read somewhere that someone is hoarding the sound library and not licensing it out, so I guess they did what they could with that. From what I understand, this is something that happens from time to time, and it’s a shame.

I'm probably the resident RoboNut on here. Tons of collectibles, favorite movie of all time, etc. I'm on my third play through of Rogue City. Although it's perhaps not everyone's cup of tea, it's my personal GOTY and was well worth the money for the Alex Murphy edition.

I hope we get DLC but I also hope we get a full blown RoboCop: Rogue City sequel. This dev just "gets it."

Returnal remains one of my favorite games of this generation so far.

For clarification, despite not finishing it, I was enjoying it. I just got kind of bored at a certain point (Asgard, which I REALLY hope is at least halfway through. Can anyone confirm?).

Meanwhile I'm on my THIRD play through of RoboCop: Rogue City. Still going despite having the Platinum.

I think a lot of these big budget AAA titles spend so much time being cinematic masterpieces that they forget to be fun video games.

I got bored with it and never finished it. I planned on going back to it but didn't realize its been a year already. Yeesh. Maybe I should do that. Eventually.

The funniest glitch I had on my play through was when I fast traveled (which I rarely do) and popped up inside of a building. Looked odd from the inside out 😆

I just had to FT again to get out though, so it wasn't a big deal.

I'm really happy for the RoboCop developers. Reviews were up and down, but the player scores have been pretty consistently high and word of mouth has been really great.

It's my personal GOTY because I'm a huge Robo fan and I've had more fun playing Rogue City than anything else this year.

I'm about halfway through my second play through and hoping for a NG+ soon (robo fingers crossed).

The entire Halo to Destiny to Destiny 2 journey really is a textbook example of "How did it come to this?"

That said, I feel for those being laid off.

My only knock so far other than the (expected) jankiness is that there is no manual save option. It's a little hard to know when it's autosaving. But seriously, I'm having a blast with it.

So far reviews from RoboCop fans have been really positive and others have rated it slightly lower. That's obvious and to be expected, IMO. I've really been enjoying it, but I'm a RoboCop nut, so...

I've already downloaded RoboCop and I'm pretty sure I'll be playing it at midnight tomorrow. EDIT: make that 5AM, I guess 😆

8 because all of the Venom stuff was a huge whiff for me as a massive Venom/Eddie Brock fan. Just too out of character and odd. Plus giving not one but two Eddie Brock roles to other characters stung a bit as a fan of the character.

That said, the Kraven stuff was great and Harry was great other than the symbiote stuff. The gameplay elements were improved enough as well. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Story was better in the first game, everything else was better here.

A brief follow up on Spider-Man 2 (if anyone cares). I liked the ending. It hit the emotional notes I was looking for in a Spider-Man game… but I still really didn’t like what they did with Venom. It was a huge whiff for me in an otherwise excellent story. I liked some elements they brought in from recent depictions of the character, but they didn’t pay off other than for visuals and he really was just Venom in name only to me, so that was pretty disappointing.

But that’s just one negative mark on an otherwise excellent experience and I’m really just more annoyed by it because I’m as big of a Venom fan as I am. I’m sure other people’s mileage will vary greatly. I’ve already seen other people saying it’s the best depiction of the character ever, so what do I know?

Anyway, it’s still a great game and if you love Spider-Man, you should play it.

The only thing I noticed was very early on after mashing Square to attack, both characters would continue to attack until I pushed another button. However, this only happened two or three times in the very early part of the game and then I didn't encounter it again and I've used that controller multiple times since with no issues.

I have one mission left (maybe 2?) in SM2 and my impression (so far) is that I preferred the story in the first game, despite being a huge Venom fan. This just isn't "my" Venom at all, but I suppose that was the intention. That and some other things have really solidified the "alternate universe" aspect of the series and it feels like less of a "true" Spider-Man game because of it. But that's just me and is of course entirely subjective. That being said, the gameplay is pretty much perfect and the side quests are a lot better and more fleshed out. I still really love the game but I think the first story hit me harder. Maybe that will change as I wrap this one up.
