While I wasnt keen on the art style itself, if the gameplay is fire i'd be all up for it. Just need to see more and when it plays out decide if its for me or not
I remember playing the OG on Sega Megadrive.
While it started out nicely enough, it didnt half give me the creeps later.
It wasnt till much later in my life i found out it has all sorts of things to do with evil aliens, time travel and saving the planet that i was mind blown and possibly even more scared of this franchise.
I also remember my cousin bringing tides of time over and those weird vortex half creatures would move towards you fast off screen and scare the hell out of me too!
Wayyyy to much trauma from this game. Lets do it all over again
@Yousef- Give it a try. If it doesn't resonate with you after first 2 or 3 episodes give it a miss. I watched it all in a day and I thought it was alright! You can't beat the games unfortunately but that's my own lofty standards @Flaming_Kaiser its definitely gonna be a binge watch i reckon when i get round to it
I actually enjoyed season 1. Was it the best thing? Probably not. Could I enjoy it for what it was worth? Definitely. Love me some DMC so more is always better. Wish they'd get to work on another game though! Will definitely watch this at some point!
Glad Tekken 8 is on track to being improved. I did pick it up an play for a couple of weeks after putting it down for a year and a bit. May jump back on eventually when DLC prices have come down and this gets to somewhere, where the general community is overall happy and positive with the play
I love the look of this game. Only thing i wish was it had colour. I get what its going for with the black and white vibe but imagine it with colour! Glad it reviewed well. Looks fun!
Yeah, a crunch or serious deadline in most work places is common. Do we agree with them or like them? No. Do they force them upon us anyway? Yes.
I can't say I agree with this type of work ethic but yet here I am in a busy office with continuous deadlines and being pushed more & more. I think this translates to all industries.
My old man always used to say "You're not paid enough to be stressed" and I very much believe in it now!
Still doesn't stop you being pressured or stressed from time to time though!
Sony have breached peoples data in the past. I wouldn't risk any more than I have to again! Fair dos to the people that do this though. I just dread that if I appeared in a game all my friends were playing and were laughing at me cause it was voiced by someone else. This coming from already a generic bearded looking man too!
@datamonkey thanks for the info! for some reason i thought MSR / PGR teams became the FORZA teams. I must have got that wrong! I miss PGR! I want my kudos for drifting!
@MrPeanutbutterz noted! Ive noticed over time arcade racing isnt really arcade racing and that the cars do adopt a more realistic style of handling. It just not quite the same. a mixture of both does neither well it seems
Is open world racing all the rage now? I'm more of a track type person. I'm not opposed to the open world tracks though where you are sort of guided by markings and etc. I haven't played any FORZA games but I did like MSR and Project Gotham who I think were the team before. Should I check out these games too?
Wouldn't be a bad shout looking at some more of wolverine but I just hope they keep announcing games to be honest. I'm not really bothered about demos of games played by someone scripted into doing things
GTA may shift some units but I think that's for anyone who's into gaming. For anyone wanting to start out I'd say this price point may of just put them off to be honest
Loved Darksiders 1 & 2. Not sure if a remaster of a remaster of an original is such a great idea. would like to see some more details as what theyve actually done. if it is barebones then i'll just keep the original PS4 remaster
These co-op missions are insane. You literally load into the level and then everything just tries to spam you at once. One mistake and your practically dead They've removed the co-op function too so doing it with the CPU character, they are basically useless!
Greedy Sony & Greedy shareholders. Remember when bad business decisions and hard times affected the investors? Instead everything is just passed to the consumer now and the rich get richer. This sucks
I called it. If you increase everything but £150+ then in 6 months time you do a "special offer" or a "discount" of £150 then that's not actually an offer at all. Do these companies think we have a memory of goldfish? Clown world.
Really crazy. I'm glad I grabbed my PS5 when I did. If anything happened to it I don't know how I would replace it for these prices. The words "tone deaf" come to mind. I think the multi-billion dollar companies needs to take the hit sometimes. They really cant pass everything on to the consumer as they'll surely price themselves out of new and existing users. Disgusting behaviour really. Get ready for the discounted prices in a few months time when they actually equal the price that they just increased it up from. Very poor form Sony
@ErrantRob Thankyou! To be honest, i'd do all the same as yourself and turn down the blur and other bits that could make it run smoother anyway. I'll check it out further down the line i think maybe with a discount.
I really wanna give it a try but the general consensus seems to be play it on PC or PS5-Pro. I've only got a base PS5 from day 1 release. I suppose i'll have to just wait this one out for discounts or a PS6

Re: Ecco the Dolphin Returns in Retro Collection Featuring a Brand New Game, But Will It Be on PS5?
@DennisReynolds I never thought about it being lovecraftian but you are so right! The Vortex scream it in hindsight!

Re: Tekken 8 Fans Furious as Tifa Tipped for Street Fighter 6 Instead
@AnginaPectoris I've seen him slap child Haruka though? Maybe Majima is the way forward then? He seems to be in all the spinoff and cross overs now
Re: Tekken 8 Fans Furious as Tifa Tipped for Street Fighter 6 Instead
If Tifa goes to street fighter then Kiriyu needs to go to Tekken otherwise they won't be able to compete.

Re: Sony Announces Gigantic PS5 Price Increases, Effective from April 2026
Really crazy. I'm glad I grabbed my PS5 when I did. If anything happened to it I don't know how I would replace it for these prices. The words "tone deaf" come to mind.
I think the multi-billion dollar companies needs to take the hit sometimes. They really cant pass everything on to the consumer as they'll surely price themselves out of new and existing users.
Disgusting behaviour really. Get ready for the discounted prices in a few months time when they actually equal the price that they just increased it up from.
Very poor form Sony
