Well I pulled the trigger on my evo 32r rim for my sim rig so when it gets delivered today I'll be tearing up fafe in Portugal in my mitsubishi evo lancer. A lot of GT7 in VR of course and the obligatory round or 10 of marathon with the guys..have a great weekend folks 👍
@Boxmonkey oh there's no doubt at all a large number of people have already decided this is dead on arrival but that's okay because they are becoming increasingly irrelevant and more and more meme like with each negative and repetitive itteration of their delusional discourse. Instead of getting annoyed with them I'm looking to embrace their daily self righteous comments.
It's free to play so I'll try it. I didn't listen when arc raiders was getting panned on its build up to release and it turned out to be brilliant. I tried marathon and clicked with it and ultimately bought it and I'm still loving it so I'll try this and make my own mind up about it. It's going to cost me f**k all so I'll lose nothing.
@CaptD I agree 100% and it's criminal that dirt rally 2.0 was never VR or EA wrc because I love my rally and VR in those 2 games would be amazing. I play dirt 2.0 and EA wrc via the headset because its like playing them on a cinema screen.
@Darylb88 I bought my ps5 Pro and the psvr2 specifically to play GT7 at its absolute best and I'll tell you now it'll blow your mind. GT7 in VR is an incredible experience. I also purchased arizona sunshine remake and that's good as well. No man's sky is stunning as well but what I'm really hoping for is that when assetto corsa rally is released it'll support VR too. To be perfectly honest if you only ever play GT7 it's worth the asking price. I also use a thrustmaster t598 wheel and a gtplayer cockpit.
Loving my ps5 Pro and I'm glad I decided to pull the trigger before the price hikes. I really want to give saros a shot but I'm not paying £70..I'll wait for a sale.
@naruball I did enjoy the first but I got a bit bored quite fast. It felt like it needed more content to flesh it out a bit more. I love rogue likes such as dead cells,vampire survivors etc and we share a fondness for similar games so I'll take your opinion on board and try the first again.
@RyPal oh my bad. I just thought that if any game suddenly releases any quality of life patches or options that were not available at launch we had to question whether the devs had released it incomplete or were actively improving it via feedback.
So was this game released incomplete too? Should the devs be scolded or applauded? @naruball I liked the first game but bounced off it quite quickly so my question is this..is it more of the same or is it a better game overall?
@Sanquine I know you are an insomniac fan but I'm not a huge fan to be honest. They produce Stirling games but there's a bit too much wokeness for me personally. Please note other readers I said personally as in you don't have to agree or tell me you disagree.
No this game wasn't released incomplete and these patches only improve quality of life in the game. No need to re-visit the review unless you want to admit you made a mistake and got it wrong. Awarding starfield a higher score than CD was just silly. Pearl abyss are one of my more respected devs next to arrowhead and embark studios in the way they respond to the gamers input..maybe PS should do the same and listen to us for once.
@Titntin I don't know what's going on with PS at the moment but Jesus it's getting a tad tiresome. If it wasn't for people like yourself and @Sanquine,@Kidfunkadelic83 and the other guys I've met here and now play online with regularly I'd have quit this three ring circus years ago. PS need to do better and get back to when they were actually decent circa 2019.
@LowDefAl sshhh buddy. People don't want to hear that..let's pretend they don't do anything you've mentioned as not to upset the delicate nature of all things corporate greed like and anti consumer..
So long as I can still find the games I'm interested in and it works I don't care. I quite like it how it is currently and I'd hate it to go all steamed up..never really liked steam.
I'm really enjoying this game. I'm not playing it constantly (GT7 wears that crown) but even I have to step away from the driving games and play something else and crimson desert and marathon are my go to games. Everybody saying CD was broken at launch is talking out of their asses..menu system still needs work though as like marathon it's the only issue I have.
@MrPeanutbutterz Forza horizon 5 was the first of the horizon series I've played. I had the first 2 forza motorsport games on the original xbox way back in the mists of time and I loved them. I will definitely be getting FH6 when it launches on the ps5.
More psvr2 shenanigans for me with the obligatory GT7 and I grabbed Arizona sunshine remake which is only £10 at the moment. Its a good laugh but I am still struggling with the hand controllers but I'll get used to it. That zombie head you can pick up at the start and look at is quite disgusting. It's the masters weekend so I'll be watching that in the evening so if any of the usual mob want a marathon session contact me through psn and I'll jump on. Have a great weekend folks 👍
@LikelySatan yeah my last stint as a manager did it for me. Having to take my teams issues and concerns to the upper,lower iq over paids just cemented my decision to never want to have to deal with the politics ever again. I don't regret my decision 20 years later.
@cragis0001 "That’s not to say everything [Bethesda] said, we did. Yeah, we probably didn’t f*cking come close to that, but that was absolutely our intention." Did you read that part or just skim through? To me he sounds like a guy who genuinely cared and tried his best to protect his fellow co-workers and get things done. We all know people like this who try their hardest to ensure their teams integrity but when going up against big wigs who have tunnel vision and egos the size of Jupiter its an impossible task. "He sounds like a typical scorned employee to be fair." I would say despondent and deflated and I kind of feel for him.
This is an absolutely useless article. OK I'll admit I'm a new adopter of the psvr2 but even I know there are a lot of games on the horizon for vr enthusiasts..pushsquare need to do much better than this.
@Titntin cheers pal. Yeah it takes some getting used to that's for sure. I'm looking at wrath aeon of whatever its called. Looks like a decent doom clone and for under £15 I'm sooo tempted.
@PuppetMaster why? They are not using pokemon characters. The battle system looks more like the holochess game from star wars as was mentioned. I see your point because you have to capture the critters but I hardly think nintendo will blow a fuse over this.
@Shwing @PneumaPilot I've only had my psvr2 for a couple of weeks and my main game and the reason for buying it along with upgrading to the ps5 Pro is GT7. I actually installed no man's sky yesterday to try out the vr and it really is a jaw dropping experience. I don't like the teleport movement so I switched it to smooth and that's much better but I am struggling with the controllers but that's a me thing and not a game issue. Once I get used to having to look at the back of your hands to switch the different modes I'll enjoy it more. It really is a new game and really makes you wonder if starfield is really relevant.
@HonestHick fair enough. I highly doubt that diablo 4 (one of your favorites and most defended games) recouped what that cost to make. I'm not even sure how much blizzard sunk into that one but I bet it was a pretty penny. Player count is probably still high but even the diablo games as much as I love them are rather niche too. The only mainstream entry was diablo 3 which dumbed down a lot of the mechanics that made those other entry's such master pieces but I still loved it and it was my first big game for my PC that I built when it launched and I'm very proud to say was my first ever platinum trophy. Marathon won't ever die out completely I hope but until then I'll continue to play it with the friends I've met through PS on a regular basis.
