Aside from one instance in story mode where the other player just wouldnt swing ive had no issues. It is lacking a bit of Clap Hanz charm though. I can't quite place exactly what though
I think hes just going to be lightning fast (think of that scene in Logan where he is full sprint just annihilating people from that side view perspective) but its gonna feel chunky. It needs to and I think Insomniac knows that. They have to perfectly balance weight and speed.
@NieR_Dark Soul Caliber and Shenmue changed my perspective a lot. One brought me a pure arcade experience with zero corners cut. The other showed me that the impossible was possible lol. Dynamite Cop is my number 1 Dreamcast guilty pleasure.
Im just baffled by some of the comments. Im convinced people either dont actually like games or feel that Sony genuinely owes them something. Baffling angles people are taking. This looks like one of the best greenlit AAA products from a major publisher in quite a long time. The amount of time and effort poured into every detail, the lore, the culture. I think some people need a new hobby lol. We are complaining about a sequel to an amazingly received game but would then also complain if they forced the studio to do anything else....I just dont unserstand
They need to crank out bangers for the next 18 months full stop. Like that is Sonys only option. Saros, Marathon, Yotei, Wolverine, Venom, Galactic....all need to BANG
Damn. I know Clap Hanz wanted to make a different game which i respect but how is this game this ugly and with poor performance? Ive bought every one since the ps2 days and have loved them. I at least need to see this game patched up before I purchase
The fact that these huge brands think that creating a Hollow Knight, Stardew Valley, Balatro, Fez...I think you all get my point- isn't a financial lucrative option...at least one of the 4 titles I named has sold more than any Playstation franchise except GT and thats a 30 year old IP. It doesnt have to be all AAAA blockbusters and Live service to make boatloads of money. Herman is a Turd and Jim Ryan was a turd. Get me Andrew House, Shu and Sean back
I'm all in on this. Even though Nether Realm isn't developing this it feels like a big "sorry bout mk1" kind of thing. They need to produce some good will. Wish they were independent.
Please buy this. I need S4. I need Yu to finish this. Then I need NightDive to bring the first 2 up to date and somehow fix the awful audio and then bundle 1-4 so I can forget real life for a couple weeks and play this epic from start to finish
Sony has been very smart in regards to capturing a new audience. Why you think Big Phil and Bond were at the China show with no official presence. China is the untapped market. I know this is Korean but it aligns with the explosion In Asian game representation on consoles which is great imo
@nessisonett well different stroke and all that I guess. I just don't know really anyone that didnt enjoy the first 2. Now infinite retconned a lot but was still praised for gameplay at the time. But I get it. I still to this day couldn't get more than a couple hours into TW3 and that game is universally praised just like the original Bioshock
@nessisonett was your first experience recently or did you play the og when it actually came out? I could totally understand if you didn't play the original, even the Remaster, until recently
My seven year old son was soooo mad at this game for the first 20 minutes. I told him to relax and think. He now adores the challenge. F U Roblox. Lol.
NightDive is everything right with gaming. They are truly diamonds in the rough of the current landscape. I member Hexen on my Gateway 2000 Pentium III. Support this developer and buy the games they bring back into the fold!!
@get2sammyb at least we've seen gameplay and know its real. This has been in some form of production for a decade and we've seen nothing. This is like Beyond Good and Evil levels of production hell lol
@get2sammyb didn't the show go multi last year? I hope they don't go the same route. I feel like with what MS is doing it gives Sony and Nintendo the opportunity to showcase why they are very the best places to play and grow further
@KundaliniRising333 I mean I do understand that viewpoint but TLoU2 did the exact opposite and the pitchforks came out lol. Astro was fresh, I think Yotei looks amazing personally. Returnal was fresh, Rift Apart was a franchise we didnt even think would get a new lease on life. Spidey 2....same as Forbiddent West though. Hard to fault GT7. I think Sony still allows a decent amount of creative freedom comparatively to the other big publishers. Its been a rough gen with all the cancelations though. There are more options than ever but still feels different...
@Americansamurai1 id reverse the VR and Lego numbers and that looks legit. Forbidden West did so much right and so much wrong as a sequel. The first game is must play imo. I can't say the same about FW
Id imagine the Xbox part is to assist with MLB and maaaaybe....a handful of titles. Some of which could be 5+ years old. Also titles developed 2nd party. Sony is more Nintendo than ever. Even if they don't realize it yet. I mean they've always relied on amazing exclusive content and knew it. I just hope they still know it. Everything shouldn't be on everything. All 3 proved that at one point. Make great hardware, make great controllers and make good reasons to buy both with killer content.
Id love the first 5 games to get the new console sheen if you will. All 5 on one disk. Slap that 69.99 tag on it. But for SSM...for some reason id love them to tackle Syphon Filter. And not SSM but so.ebody needs to get Cool Boarders back....it could actually work well in the GaaS space as much as id hate to admit that. And where is a big, in house, Arc the Lad RPG. Try and give some Zelda tier
I like the idea of "trading" games. You give us x game and we'd give you x game. Could you imagine a " hey nintendo" we'll give you ASTROBOT and you give us DK lol
So more God of War or an IP Cory has passion for that's been dormant 🤔. I mean he rebooted GoW. What's to say he didnt take INFamous or some other IP and flip it on its ear? The ND catalog alone is dying for some type of re-imagining....it's probably GoW though lol
Anyone upset with that just doesn't appreciate big open world sagas with attention to detail and extreme care for the material. This looks to be an amazing experience. Sucker Punch is at the pinnacle of their craft. Fingers crossed for a legends type mode. Also love the no journal and the actual characters for updates
I challenge anyone just hating on Neil...yes he has skeletons...yes he has some rumors regarding sacking other creatives...yes him and Bruce ain't tight....but damn. Even if every rumor is true. Dude still has a lot of creative talent lol. Doesn't make him a good person by any means.
Hey hey!! I like this. Im sure I can't sign being on the other side of the pond but my brother and sisters from the other side NEED to do this. Maybe it'll catch on and be relevant on a global scale!!
GotP is my personal favorite. I'd never seen a game look that good and all my friends who had a 360 only were shocked at the visual fidelity of that game. The story beats were great but obnoxiously EXCESSIVE lol. After that probably Snake Eater
@ButterySmooth30FPS I'd of never played and subsequently LOVED Avowed if I let the reviewers make the decision for me. Can it be a financial risk? Sure but if getting burned on 50-70 bucks is detrimental then maybe gaming shouldn't be a priority lol. Glad you enjoyed it!
Out of Bounds on ps3 still my favorite entry. The 3 second clips at the end of a round just put a smile on my face every time. Day one for me and the wife
The fact there isn't even what looks to be an attempt at baking an emulator into the ps5 is sad. Even if it was a slow roll out. Being able to play ps3 exclusive titles off of your disc should be attempted
They just aren't even in the same ballpark financially Sony/MS. And even though Sony gambled and didn't exactly lose the GaaS approach (Helldivers, GT7 and MLB prove there can be very successful live titles) they also hindered their 1st party output which is the industry standard imo. Even with output low, what they will release (Wolverine, Ghosts and Saros) will be amazing and worth the money.
My top 4 games this year have been split. 2 on my ps5 and 2 on my series. It goes Clair Obscur, Split Fiction, Avowed and Blue Prince in that order. The hate towards Avowed i just don't get. Blue Prince is just insanely unique and mysterious. Split Fiction and Clair Obscur are just chefs kiss quality
@Lowdefal yes I know he is the hardware designer. Thank god he isn't responsible for the hideous design of the ps5 lol. It grows on ya but that's like a fever dream design haha. And hes developed his own games. Knack, regardless of what you thought of the game itself, was a ps4 showcase. I'd imagine his intellect is spread across many facets of the entire conceptualization of the console.
If sony is smart they use the wizard Mark Cerny to create a still closed ecosystem. If Xbox is going to integrate steam and expect their next box to play games that have decent PC spec requirements their "console" is going to have to be $1200 minimum. Even though Sony has had a rough go with their live service push games like Demon Souls remake (a launch title mind you), Returnal, Rift Apart, TLoU 2 Remastered, GT7, The Show, Horizon Forbidden West, Spiderman 2, Ragnarok...even with some being cross gen, are still the best looking and playing games out there. Offer something as special as the PS5 (in regards to its capabilities with 1st party and quality 3rd party studios finished products) with the PS6 and make it no more than 699.99 and you will steal the console market/ share it exclusively with Nintendo
