Re: Assassin's Creed Fans Furious as Physical Copies of Black Flag's PS5 Remake Will Require Internet

LordOfTurnips

People need to really wake the heck up when it comes to physical media.
I get it, I like to collect ***** too, but nowadays even installing a 150 gigabyte game to your ps5 takes up to an hour, imagine how long it takes to burn these discs
Absolutelly no AAA games can even run directly from a disc in the first place because of read speeds.
the truth is we really need to move on from physical because it's literally something that exists solely for the niche of having a physical something on your shelf

Re: Rumour: Persona 1 and 2 Re-Release Hinted at by New Merchandise

LordOfTurnips

@Porco
no, an insult would have been if the devs release the game and the first line of dialogue is calling your mother fat.
you're not owed anything bro. a port of these titles exactly as they were on psp would be straight up fantastic.
games dont stop being art simply because they are old and people really need to stop being this entitled about demanding remakes of everything.

Re: Rumour: Persona 1 and 2 Re-Release Hinted at by New Merchandise

LordOfTurnips

Also for the uninformed, kinda like final fantasy x and x-2, there are two Persona 2 games, Innocent Sin and its sequel Eternal Punishment.
Innocent Sin was never released in the west for the ps1, only for the psp version while Eternal Punishment was never released for the psp in the west, only for the ps1.
Weird ***** but either way expect 3 games in this 2 game collection.

Re: STALKER 2 Shows Off Its PS5 Version in New Gameplay Trailer

LordOfTurnips

@Oxy you do know that the book comparisson makes no goddamn sense right? a book is a book, you can just read it. you actually need something else to even play whats on the disc unless you really like to read the copyright on the back of the box.
even something like a movie doesnt work as a comparisson because:
a)the size is much smaller
b)you dont need to install the movie from the disc.
Games are simply too big and require much more to run nowadays. Blu Ray discs are nearly 20 years old, its kinda insane we're even shipping any kind of data on them still.

Re: STALKER 2 Shows Off Its PS5 Version in New Gameplay Trailer

LordOfTurnips

@Oxy bruh how are you replying here if you dont have internet? I'm so high right now....
All jokes aside, i get that its crappy that the data isnt on disc.
I also dont think it matters at all, we really are at a point where if you are into videogames in anyway you probably have decent enough internet to download the data faster than the console can even copy it from the actual disc.
As much as I actually love collecting physical stuff (and I very much do) physical media really is so obsolete that having a box and a disc on your sheld really is the sole reason for not buying it digitally.

Re: PS5 Sequel Darksiders 4 Has Online and Split-Screen Co-Op, By the Way

LordOfTurnips

@djlard
They already did multiplayer with Darksiders Genesis.
Please understand that MP isnt the same as GaaS.
Hell a few of my favorite games ever have MP modes if not made entirely with MP in mind, like Left 4 Dead, Star Wars Battlefront 2 (the original), Diablo 2.
Hell even diablo 4, which has some pretty abusive MTX and has a beeg focus on being a live service, actually has a fantastic campaign that can be played entirely on single player, same goes for the late game content.
Lets just see the actual game before we cuss at the people making the games we love, why dont we?

Re: Street Fighter 6 Community Rocked by AI Art Controversy

LordOfTurnips

@ZeroSum
I have not ever seen any of the art made by the person who submited the AI entry, however if they honestly thought "this is better than what i can do" their art is definitelly not good, because that AI slop they put out is baaaaad, goes agains many design philosofies and its very inconsistent with its own style.
Shapes lose form, lines bend without any sort of reason, sudden straight lines appearing in curved shapes.
At a glance is fine but when you actually look at it for more than a few seconds it really looks bad.
If this is better than what the artist can do, its a bad artist.

Re: Brazilian Gamers Infuriated by Sudden PS5 Price Hikes

LordOfTurnips

Its actually very simple.
Minimum wage in the US is on average $1160.
Here in Brazil the average minimum wage is $265
I dont blame Sony at all for the price hike, and while there is an argument to games selling more if you price it according to the local economy, its definitelly our local economy and government that suck balls.
Yes games are a comodity and should not be treated as essential products, but when a single game costs 30% of your income, no one wins.

Re: 38% of PS Plus Members Are Paying More for Extra, Premium

LordOfTurnips

Count me in the 62% that only has essential.
Had premium but downgraded to Essential since I realized that:
A) I dont care much about the games in the extra tier.
B) The games added to premium are really mid, Sony has a fantastic catalog they simple are not putting in the premium tier
C)The few games from Premium I care about I either already owned on ps3 or dont care to buy a la carte.

Re: Silent Hill 1 Remake Announced, from Bloober Team

LordOfTurnips

SH2 remake was really good, a weird case of a game not replacing the original but also not being redundant.
I really hope they can get the vibes of SH1 right, which is really hard as I feel like the dated graphics really do work in favor of the horror element.

Re: I Am Your Beast, the Acclaimed Arcade FPS, Is Gunning for PS5 in June

LordOfTurnips

Really hope this has M&K support on console.
I'm not really a pc player and in general I rather play most of everything on console, its why I never invested on a propper gaming PC, but once in a while something like this comes out and really makes me wish I could play it with a mouse instead of a controller.
should be fine tho, If I can handle ghostrunner and doom eternal's dlc this should work either way

Re: 10 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for May 2025 Announced

LordOfTurnips

I learned to ignore the "this is the worst month ever" coments because people will usually just complain for just about anything.
But this month they are specially stupid. I mean, its outrageous that theres only one game for premium this month (which I do agree is a waste of money, specially in countries that do not have the option to stream games) but Extra tier is superb this month. (and I say this as someone who only has essential since i straigh up buy most of my games)
Sand Land is great, Humanity is a banger, BFV is the best WWII MP game ever made (with a pretty good SP campaign), Soul Hackers 2 is a great RPG and Granblue is an Arc game, which just means that its a VERY solid fighter.

But most of all.
Legends of the Zone trilogy is worth the entry price by itself, holy ***** what a fantastic trilogy, my GOTY of last year for sure. if you are complaining about this you really have no taste in games.

Re: PS5 Maker Faces Lawsuit Over So-Called 'Sony Tax' on Digital Games

LordOfTurnips

Maybe its simply because I'm from Brazil but usually even used ps5 games wont ever go below R$120,00 and even getting that low is quite rare.
Digitally however i get much better discounts on the ps store, sometimes games get a full 80% discount or even more and end up getting a AAA game for around R$20,00 which is CRAAAZY.
However I still think this lawsuit is ***** insane. Imagine being sued for having a monopoly on your own store. literally makes no ***** sense.

Re: Nintendo Fans Are Desperate to Know How Close Switch 2 Will Get to PS4's Power

LordOfTurnips

also, ps4 pro is over eight years old now.
I trully expect the switch successor to be AT LEAST as powerfull, I know that nintendo is doing its own thing and power isnt really a focus, but come one, we live in a time where you can play modern AAA games like re4 remake on your phone. Nintendo needs to put some oompf behind this thing if it wants it to compete in anyway in the third party market, specially with sony's and MS's portable devvices on the horizon.

Re: Best PS1 Games

LordOfTurnips

I'm here to plead to everyone.
Please go rate Oddworld Abe's Exoddus. Game is a masterpiece, it deserves to be om this list

Re: Best PS1 Games

LordOfTurnips

@ShogunRok hey I noticed Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus has an 84 game rating but its not on the list, in fact the game doesnt even have a cover in its push square page.
