I'd assume Elizabeth is winning over Cervantes purely because of Bioshock's name value and her image being strongly tied to its highest profile release (Infinite). Personally, I don't play fighting games and snobbishly assume that no characters in such a game can be interesting characters so I will always vote against them.
Big first round matchup between John Marston and Nathan Drake. Drake is like the face of playstation so hard to not see him winning but Marston is a well-developed, more subtle character that I love as well!
@BLP_Software They get paid the flat rate like you said, which they wouldn't be getting at all for that project if there was no demand/market for dlc. There's plenty of jobs that don't get commissions, so not sure that's really a great argument by itself.
For games that continue to get updates it's either micro-transactions or paid dlc right? I'd much rather get my gambling loot crate fix in rocket league and have some cosmetics to mess around with then have to pay $5-$15 twice a year (which also fragments online communities).
Agreed, I've also noticed significant improvement in tactics day-by-day almost. Random teammates are dropping at the same area, using the map-markers, etc...It's going to be a fun ride, hope they keep the updates coming!
Anything that requires I buy games for it separately is a step backwards. A portable would need to be intertwined with PS base console to a heavy degree to make me interested
The uncharted games are good but Last of Us was on a different level for me, so I'm worried for sure but obviously won't expect that standard going forward.
Pretty sure any character could be classified as a fan-favorite in this universe. Regardless, as one of my favorites would say, this game got me sweatin' (in anticipation) like a hooker in church.
Just picked up Salt & Sanctuary after scouting it for months so it has to be the favorite to go free this month. Im down for a casual racing game though!
I guess this will have to do until Last of Us 2. Interested to see if the smaller title and different characters will give us some gameplay tweaks/experimentation. If it's pure-uncharted gameplay I'll be fine but would love it to be spiced up. Seems like the title to try new things with
How did New Frontier (Season 3?) line up with the first two seasons? I really enjoyed the first, mostly enjoyed the second but am definitely feeling some fatigue towards the Telltale model despite some great highs (still looking forward to Wolf Among Us Ssn 2 though!)
@kyleforrester87 What flaws are you referring to in FFXV? I'm trying to decide which FF to get as I've never really played one but am intrigued by both.
@RustyBullet Yeah I did notice that too, all too busy live-tweeting I guess...maybe they need to let some actual fans in and get video of them next year reacting.
Just to clear this up, they don't want to be included because the other platforms' player base is smaller and excluding themselves will somehow equate to people on 3 other platforms being somehow unable to find a match on the very popular rocket league?
Theres a very real possibility that the muted crowd was literally muted...watched show for first time and is the amount of technical woes par for the course as ive seen no complaints. The pre-show was brutal to watch for the most part and the first two trailers of the main show ONLY had the mics from the stage
Decent deals if you've been biting at the bit for these newer games but by no mean impulse-buy worthy. Everything's eventual, I got games to play and time to wait for better prices.
I prefer downloads, love the easy switching, quieter console and lack of disc clutter. However, like said, discs are great for games I just want to play through once and sell back. Also space can become an issue with big digital games
Pretty blah, would love to get a multiplayer game that casuals would play so I could lure my friends in. Most of them never bother even adding these plus games to their library. Not saying life is strange is bad, but I bought it heavily discounted many months ago so not a great value freebie.
@RedMageLanakyn Yeah, I stopped on my third planet and haven't had any itch to pick it back up. I similarly played ME1-3 through with near 100% attention. OH WELL, wish I'd pre-ordered Horizon or Persona instead.

Re: Fortnite Battle Royale Gamble Pays Off Big for Epic, Hits 10 Million Players
Can someone talk about how they have yet to monetize Fortnite in any way (cosmetic loot crates?)? Is this not strange???

Re: PUBG Dev Isn't Too Happy About Fortnite's Battle Royale Mode
