I haven't played it yet. Once i learned it was a 3 parter i was in no rush to play it. I got 2 parts now. Once the 3rd is about to hit i might get to it. I didn't want to play it just to get hit with a cliffhanger.
@doctommaso I'm tired of "in a vacuum" inflation comparisons. They are disonest. It's not just the inflation, it's raises and it's the cost of living, the scarcity, the tariffs as we well see, the taxes, etc. Inflation doesn't exist in a vacuum.
Also, the ps3 was a blu ray player. The ps5 pro doesn't even have a disc drive. They are very different propositions.
The God of War collection is coming any day now as well.
Oh right... it was greek god of war or something now.
If you don't know... be quiet. Getting people's hopes up for nothing is not cool.
The guy said it was coming last week, yet here we are. When did we start believing rumours? Was it the Nvidea leak?
Yet, no GoW collection, no FFIX remake and no Oblivion remake.
Can we like... wait until official announcements or actual evidence, not hearsay?
I think that with how popular CRPG's are atm, this could do well enough, even if it's a different take on it.
But, if i'm honest, a new guardians of the galaxy would be insane hype too. Such an overlooked game that is so effin good.
I'd like to see both back.
Being second console doesn't mean it isn't direct competition. The market is your time playing. They are competing for game sales and engagement aka play hours. They are also competition for subscription service and online play.
@TruestoryYep Yes, I have a PC and I can always retreat into steam. But, I only like to play certain genres on PC. There's room to go further there, if I want to.
Weapon durability never was nor ever will be a good system. It just adds busy work and inventory management that isn't fun and saving the best weapons for a rainy day and end up never using them.
It's an awful system, and every dev putting it in their games deserves a slap across the face.
The stance has not changed and I have seen 80 euro games around already.
My stance is that I will wait for a price cut.
It's just what it is. Thankfully I come across retailers making up the difference, but they are trying to screw them over too.
I simply don't buy them. I simply can't justify it. I have never bought a game over 65 euros and I never will.
I am disappointed. I was looking forward to it until Nintendo went full greedy with it.
Charging for last gen upgrades, huge game price increase and the system itself nearing the limit.
None of the games were for me either.
So... I am thinking about waiting on this one until games that interest me are out.
No chance MH wilds runs on it with it's current performance. MH World might. I am expecting a portable ps4/ps4pro. Somewhere in that ballpark would already be pretty good.
I definitly like it. I love figuring out head scratchers. I just wish they were more consistant with what they do with it. Those mobile games... I dunno. I would like to see the return of playable Ventus though.
I am gonna be honest and say it doesn't deserve the sales given the technical state it launched in. But, it's not a bad game. It's good they are going to be fixing it.
@Jenny_Jones Then he really should use "I" and not "we". It's all fixed now, I see.
But, what I said does not apply to push square in particular. Many reviewers out there don't bother playing the games to the credits or engaging with their systems before writing so called "reviews".
Itβs not even Ronaldo voicing him. It's just a new character inspired by him.
I dislike guest characters on all games though, let's just get that clear. But this isn't crazier than say... Ghostface, Conan or Freddy.
@nomither6 Pretty sure that California isn't the problem. This is a phenomenon across the western world. That means US, Canada and Europe.
I am also sure the execs salary is more of a problem than the devs.
This is nonsense. I don't believe Microsoft will do this.
Being on steam means they can't charge for online play anymore or have control of the network and the fees gained from sales on it. Their whole Xbox live thing will be gone. It will just be a game renting service.
If that's what they want to do, I don't think they will be competition. Also, games are not optimised for that kind of platform. I guess Microsoft can optimise theirs, but how will you feel playing say MH wilds which looks and performs terrible on a mid range pc, compared to the console versions which are more optimised, even if still with issues?
If microsoft wants to sell a packed in PC, let them? It's not different from a regular PC. Actually, it's worse.
I don't think there is anything to worry about. It's the same as them leaving the console market.
Probably no same day releases on PC though. But, that was already the case.

Re: Microsoft Short Changes Indiana Jones PS5 by Only Putting 20GB on the Blu-ray
This is completely unacceptable. A literal scam.
The game has to work off the disc, even if it's an unpatched version. Otherwise it's just a key on a disc and it must be disclosed as such.

Re: Enjoy Pure PS1 Nostalgia with Lunar Remastered Collection's Story Trailer
The real gem is Lunar 2.
Lunar 1 always felt overhyped to me. It's very generic and shorter.

Re: Feature: PS5's Not Perfect, But Here Are 5 Ways It's More Consumer Friendly Than Switch 2
Two wrongs don't make a right.
And make no mistake, Sony will follow suit, unless this blows up on Nintendo's face.
With that said, Sony is already learning with how the PS5Pro is selling less than the PS4Pro.

Re: The Weapon Durability Debate Is Back with PS5 Action RPG Blades of Fire
Weapon durability never was nor ever will be a good system. It just adds busy work and inventory management that isn't fun and saving the best weapons for a rainy day and end up never using them.
It's an awful system, and every dev putting it in their games deserves a slap across the face.
Re: Talking Point: What Are Your Thoughts on Potential $80 PS5 Games?
@trev666 Then it's time to stop modern gaming. I got a collection for a reason. I got gaming to keep me happy till I die. π
BTW I will push back on the notion a bit. Nintendo games did go on sale on the eshop on occasion. It's rare, but it happens.

Re: Reaction: Sony's Licensing Strategy May Be the Best Route to Reviving Some of PlayStation's Lost Classics
Surely someone will want to pick up Wild arms, right? The thing even had an anime. Such a wasted brand.
Same for Ape escape.
If it gets me new entries, I am all for it. New wipeout and rollcage would be nice too.
