I like my physical copies. I always try and buy physical if the option is there because 100%..yes 100% of the time I get them much cheaper than the digital copies. I'm not against digital but it's not something I'd consider committing to unless Sony bring down the extortionate prices on the digital store.
It's a shame really. The game isn't bad to be honest but it's not particularly great either. It's got a solid base to build upon but the devs just don't seem to know what to do with it. If only they just stuck to titanfall..
@MrPeanutbutterz I bought test drive in a sale a little while ago and I quite like the driving but everything else about the game absolutely sucks arse. The story is crap and the avatars are just awful. For free it's worth a butchers and it is a decent enough car game but it has way too much chaff for me.
@CheesyOatcake " as my partner is female, and therefore experienced a LOT of abuse online over the years for existing." That's really bad bud. I have no idea if it's always trios but if the concern about randoms is your main concern then maybe think about adding some of us pushsquarians to your friends list to team up with. You'll get no abuse from us but plenty of friendly banter.
@naruball thanks. It's nothing serious just a little virus/bug my wife brought home from work but it's enough to make take a very rare sick day. How are you getting on with ball pit? I platted it the other weekend.
@Hi569 yeah I wasn't having a go at you bud. It's a discussion and they don't have to be confrontational. I said in my reply to you that I could see where you were going whereas in your initial comment I couldn't. Alls good bud 👍
@Falien "which is demeaning to people who have constructive advice to provide." If you read the vast majority of comments on this game you will find the people that fit your description are very few and far between. Most of them have no constructive advice at all.
@chesheer what? The art style and aesthetics are really cool. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Personally I always thought van gogh's art was ugly and over rated but millions of art lovers can't be wrong yes? My wife's art is incredible but people don't like her hyper realistic portraits..but that's life I guess.
@Hi569 I've not played a call of duty game for a while but all shooter games have squads made up of people who have differing abilities such as medics,scouts,assault specialists etc. I see where you are going with this and its a fair point but your comment was rather obtuse and lacking the needed context. No worries 👍
@Hi569 how is it a hero shooter? Because it has squad members with different abilities? So would you class every call of duty,battle field etc as hero shooters too? I feel this is a new tag that everybody's going to utilise now ad infinitum to describe every squad based shooter.
@Frmknst okay I've pondered your post for a few minutes now and I still can't work out who or what you are replying to..I'm not feeling well today as I have a shocking cold so I'll give you a like and maybe it will become clearer later..like some kind of cosmic revelation..
@get2sammyb I don't usually see eye to eye with you and in the past I've called pushsquare out for click bait articles and console war flame fanning but in this instance I think it's more than justified. The amount of hate this game is receiving is depressing to say the least. Marathon looks like it's going to be the success story of this year thus far and I just can't wait for all the haters to eat a huge plate of crow. Somebody said this is a shill article but I'm failing to see it..
@ATaco not at all. There's room for both and whilst both are extraction shooters they are both going about it in different ways. I love Arc raiders but I've got to admit I'd like it even more if it was first person. Marathon looks pretty damn cool and I'll be there day one.
@DennisReynolds never even noticed maybe that's why I'm just thinking I've been jumping. Really good game so far but I'm not too far into it as I have other games on the go too.
@DennisReynolds so what's the jumping I'm currently doing in the game then? Auto jump? If run to a wall..tap x and jump..how many different jump styles can there be?
@themightyant WTF is a chud? I'm 53 years young and I'm not down with all the modern slang. I'm guessing it's some kind of derogatory name for somebody.
@Ainu20 I have to agree with you. I'm just here to see how everybody gets so upset about him running his mouth again. They haven't disappointed so far.
@DennisReynolds I see this guy has certainly got under your skin. Maybe it's best you forget the guy exists and avoid any articles about him because it dosnt appear to be doing you any good. If a person irritates me this much I cut them off and ignore them. I respect your opinion on this but seriously its going to make you ill holding this much contempt for somebody.
I'm feeling a bit under the weather so I'm mostly watching the Lincoln lawyer s4 on Netflix. Cross series 2 has dropped on prime so I think I'll watch that too..maybe a teensy weensy bit of rally driving 🤔. Have a great weekend folks 👍
So jaffe dosnt like this game and has had a right old kiniption fit but who cares? Like everybody else he's entitled to his own opinions and free to speak them out loud. Don't like it? Don't read it ffs 🙄
@Frmknst "And the 2018 GoW relaunch was the only great game in the franchise." Just when I think you can't possibly spout more rubbish you surprise me..
@GamingGod which diablo are you playing? The great thing about diablo is experimenting with the builds. There are some superb builds out there but I'll agree with you that it's a tad confusing and overwhelming at first. Enjoy yourself.
@LifeGirl marathon isn't competing with fortnite or even overwatch. It's a different genre of game. It's rivals are strictly arc raiders and escape from tarkov so it's those players that this is aimed at.
Arc raiders is awesome. I was really getting stuck into BF6 but arc raiders just got under my skin and BF6 has currently been put to the side for the moment. Marathon is a day one purchase for me and its a very nice price too which really helps.
@Marquez I'm not sure toxic is the right word. It's pure pvp as far as I can tell so there's no moral code to abide by anyway. You see another player you snuff them out and steal their goodies. No worrying about being back stabbed at the last few moments by some random you revived and helped out.
@get2sammyb to be fair @nomither6 did say "most" and he's right. There have been the stand out titles such as the ones you named but most multiplayer titles especially the live service efforts have been lacklustre to say the least. Whereas most people have been demoaning marathons artstyle I myself have found it quite striking and I'm a day one purchaser. For £35 it can't go wrong really and I'm really excited for this one.

@MrPeanutbutterz not sure if you have a steering wheel or not but it's good with one. Works pretty much without having to tweak a lot.

Re: Sorry Haters, But Marathon Is Looking Real Good Right Now
@HydroSeptr I wish people would get over the use of AI voices in arc raiders. Nothing wrong with them and they are used well.
Re: Sorry Haters, But Marathon Is Looking Real Good Right Now
