SC is my favorite of the series so I'm very excited to see it when it happens! 3 is an interesting one for sure though. I can't imagine they would want to leave it at 2 but I would understand them skipping 3 if the demand just isn't there.

Hopefully 1 & 2 do well enough to warrant 3 as well so we can have the whole series playable on modern hardware.

I have it installed but I'm still juggling both Trails through Daybreak 2 and Mafia Old Country. I'm looking forward to playing it when I get the chance though!

Some might call that bad acting. I call it high art.

"He not the hero Gotham deserves. But he is the one it needs right now."

As long as the courses aren't as big and wide as MK World then I think Sonics actually got a real good shot here. World is fine but it's just kinda...well boring. There's barely any ramming going on because of it. Not a lot of chaos. Not something I'd expect to see from a kart racer. I liked 8 much better.

I'm looking forward to trying Sonic this weekend.

With the way the lore is setup they could really kind of go all sorts of different routes with it. Regardless the moment we see their Sandfall logo pop up in a game showcase...talk about a mic drop moment.

I don't think I'll be playing the campaign right away as I recently replayed it a few years ago. I'll definitely be hopping into some multiplayer though. Super cool to see Gears on PS. I've always been a Gears fan but PS is my preferred console so I'm stoked that I can play Gears on it!

One of the GOATs right here! This was my favorite era for shooters and Gears 1 has aged like a fine wine in my eyes. Just a stone cold classic. I always wanted Gears and Halo on PS but figured it would never happen yet here we are.

I might need to pop some champagne for the occasion! Cmon Cole Train! Let's go Locust hunting again!

It's no secret what's happening here...

That said though, Mirage is awesome so I'll definitely hop in for this. It's free after all so why not?

Sounds awesome. They fixed the few issues I had in the original with the streamlined camouflage system and improved controls. A classic has had new life breathed into it. I couldn't ask for much more than that.

@Bentleyma
It's out right now actually. I'm downloading it now.

Great to hear its shaping up nicely! It's so awesome to see them giving Sky the respect it deserves. Here's hoping this does well and we get a Sky 2nd Chapter next. That's my personal favorite of the series!

Really wish it had the PS2 era MKs. Deadly Alliance is a stone cold classic in my opinion. Hopefully they do a second collection for those at some point.

As for Mythologies and Special Forces, it cool that they actually included them but oh boy are they bad...like really bad. Shaolin Monks is by a country mile the best of their attempts at spin-off games like this.

Gameplay-wise, MGSV honestly might be one of the best games I've ever played. An incredible game. It's just too bad the story wasn't finished. And no offense to Sutherland but his voice performance just was not great.

I'm sure BF6 will take some players away but I highly doubt COD is going to be sweating much. Like it or not COD just works for its general audience. BF is a bit more hardcore and will not likely draw in your casual shooter fan.

Also it's just easier to play with friends in COD than in BF. That goes a long way for a shooter.

All that said though it is nice to see BF actually doing well for itself for the first time in a very long time.

I'm really rooting for this game. Sounds like the dream Jurassic Park game for me. I have high hopes for it!

I suppose this makes sense. They aren't sure if this multiplayer mode is going to be a hit or not so they probably aren't putting too many resources into it.

It's unfortunate but not the end of the world.

I don't mind the extra length. As it was stated the cutscenes are fully-rendered now as opposed to the original. That alone makes sense to add to the length considerably as there is always lots of dialog in Trails.

I'm still very much looking forward to it's release.

I'm sure they will appear as DLC down the road. It just makes too much sense not to.

I'm enjoying it. It's been a nice change of pace after playing so much SF6 for the last few weeks. Sure it's not reinventing the wheel but I'm fine with that. A solid game so far.

It seems quite good from what I've played. Been a while but it looks like Battlefield is back on the right track finally!

@DETfaninATL
Agreed. COD is more twitch/fast paced and less emphasis on vehicles. BF is the complete opposite with an emphasis on vehicles and big maps which slow down the pace dramatically.

I get that people love to compare them because they are both military shooters but the similarities pretty much stop there.

Never really understood the appeal of these things but to each their own.

It's a shame since the PS2 era MKs are my favorites of the series. Oh well. Maybe sometime in the future.

They are the coolest of the cool to those with taste.🤣

Just kidding but seriously it's my favorite genre by a country mile. I like a variety of games but there is very little than can stand up to a good ol JRPG.

The Bad Company games are easily the best in the series so this is good to hear.

Battle Royale just never clicked for myself. Too much running around aimlessly and praying to RNGesus. I prefer the more traditional multiplayer shooter experience.

Thankfully it at least seems like shooters are moving away from putting all their eggs in the BR basket. A variety of modes is never a bad thing.

Love to see them getting along with each other. It's going to be interesting to see where FF goes next. I liked 16 quite a bit but seeing FF return to turn-based would be pretty friggin exciting too.

Leave it to one bad apple to try and spoil the fun for everyone. My heart goes out to the passionate Kimberly fan that got snuffed from winning for this dude's cheap trick.

Good on Capcom though for rectifying the situation.

Not something I'm interested in but I can see the audience for this.

I started Daybreak 2 but put it on hold to prepare for EVO. Once I'm back home though I hopping right back on that Trails train. I'll be ready for Horizon on time. That's a promise!

Looks and sounds pretty cool! The question though is will it work at launch? Hopefully yes but this series does have a history of launching in terrible states.

I still remember when I got BF4 for PS4 at launch. One of the most broken purchases I've ever made. Campaign didn't work. No party system. Matchmaking didn't work. Crashed constantly...it was rough.

Hopefully that won't happen this time around.

It seems like a decently appropriate statement to me. Sure maybe a bit heavy-handed at the end there but at least they were clear that the game isn't going to avoid the spirit of the original from fear of offending someone.

I'm hopeful it will be good but it will be difficult without Suda or Gunn involved.

@AdamNovice
Thank you! I appreciate it. Really looking forward to it for sure.

@MichaelNau @PuppetMaster
Thank you! I'm competing in SF6. I have no delusions of grandeur. If I can just squeak out a single round win then I'll be happy. 😄

I will actually be lucky enough to be going to EVO next week for the first time! Looking forward to it! I'm actually not super excited personally for Tokon myself but I give it a whirl for sure if I get the chance. Maybe it will surprise me!

Uh huh. Sure bud.

On of my favorites of the PS4 generation. An all-time great in my eyes.

I had a good time with the first movie so I'm excited for this one. MK is always good for a few laughs at the very least.

I'd love a Infamous trilogy collection too Nate! But I get it. Focus on Yotei for now. Maybe after Yotei launches they can get around to this. Infamous 2 is to this day still one of my favorite open world games.

@Oram77
I do indeed remember both of them. The AC2 lead up movies were surprisingly great for what they were!

As for the movie, I actually think they had a decent idea but just botched the execution completely. In particular with the action scenes. They kept jumping back and forth between the real world and the animus world which made it very disorienting for no real reason. Plus the story was completely forgettable.

Hopefully the Netflix show will take some inspiration from the AC2 movie. If they do that then I'd could see this show being pretty good.

No no! Bad Sega! Bad!

He looks awesome. Love the more brutal nature of his attacks. It fits him well!

I honestly don't even see how this is in any way an insult to anyone. It's a harmless joke. Lighten up!

I'm so torn since 4 was the first one I really got into. I played the previous ones but only very casually at friends houses back in the day. I get why they did what they did but it is a shame 4 isn't more faithful since that's when it felt like the series really took a big step forward with the more open nature of it.

I'm glad the game itself is good though at least. But God be with them if they strip down THUG's career modes if that collection ever happens. I could see the backlash being much more intense for that then it is for 4.

Can't wait to play it! Sucker Punch is Sony's best 1st party studio in my opinion and Yotei looks like it will easily reinforce that viewpoint. The visuals are sublime. The music sounds awesome. The combat looks more expanded and dynamic. The exploration looks just as fun as Tsushima's. The story sounds cool...

Yeah, I'm definitely sold.

Sucker Punch just doesn't miss. No doubt this will be one of the best of the year. Probably the last thing that stands a chance against Expedition 33 for my GOTY. Can't wait!

@Areus
Very true of course. But I don't really want it badly enough to spend money on it just to have it.

If I still skateboarded today I might have picked one of these up. Alas though, my skateboarding career came to a halt due to me being absolutely terrible at it. 😂

Cool looking decks though.

I'll be picking this up for sure.
