@UnfishedPlate29 When people keep banging on about a gaming crash is coming, I always thought thought it was a meme, but I do think it needs a BIG reset, examples being I can think of are, budgets for games need to be drastically toned down, stop over hiring on staff and stop trend chasing...
@11001100110zero I think it all boils down to (and I assume Asha would agree with me) if the game makes profit then it would count as a success, that's it really, how copies it that? I sure as hell don't know. I'm sure how I feel that people (not aimed at you) are using Saros as a punching bag and calling it a failure, Returnal sold 700K on PS5 I think, but clearly Sony was ok with these numbers hence them giving the green light to Housemarque for Saros, but who is anyone kidding Saros is extremely niche so it was never going to set the world on fire sales, the game is extremely good and I highly recommend if you have the means.
First off they literally did a FPS intro for RE3 remake, secondly it really doesn't matter anymore with RE9 they proved the games work in both camera angles. Actually can't wait for this game as to me this is the game that DESERVED the remake treatment the most! Just hope it doesn't RE3R'd and has like 60% of the game cut 😬
@Krlozgod I said that in a previous article and had a few replays along the lines "now we know how PC players feel" which is fair enough I suppose, but still getting stuck with Gears 1 and Halo 1 would suck a little.
Since we have talked about this multiple times now, it is a good thing they are going back to exclusives (some what) but they will be definitely be looking at the sale numbers for E-Day and Clockwork and see what course of action to take after that, I'm still in shock about State of Decay 3 to be honest (aware it's online game).
@somnambulance I'm not asking for Fromsoft levels of hard, but the demo was just way too easy, I've never played an Onimusha game in my life but I didn't die at all in the hour I played of the demo, I just want it to be a bit more engaging that's all.
@IronCrow86 I literally said "to be expected" as in it's common, you could have most studios there, but since this is coming from Halo studios I choose Microsoft as the example, so not sure why you're getting defensive, did I say I wasn't getting the game now?
@Enuo Never understood how sequels are now looked at being "creatively bankrupt", I didn't find it a problem getting three Crash games back on the PS1🤷♂️ Also there's a reason why there are 9 main line RE games, because they sell...
@Jayphex There is a lot of content you can play on your own, but some of the best content are the raids and dungeons which need 6 and 3 players, and the MP side can be fun but I fear it would be very sweaty jumping into it now, hope this helps!
I literally have every single expansion/pack up to the final shape, so this doesn't help me much, BUT for other people this could a great chance to jump in and (finally) give it a go.... just don't expect a great onboarding expirences 😅
Resident Evil Veronica, Final Fantasy 7 Revelations and Stellar Blade, like I said before last week was just straight up amazing for game announcements!
MW2, BO1 + 2 will always be the golden age of CoD in my opinion, do these games need to come back? no probably not, but do I have the urge to blow the dust off my AK74u and tear up on jungle YES.
Edit: too premature with my comment, no MP is wild... I mean I get it but it's still wild
@11001100110zero Thank you for sharing your thoughts, yeah you make a good point about online games needing a wider net, which is why Sony is doing the same thing (I think at least), overall I'm just glad there were so many great games shown off last week regardless on what platform they get released on.
@HonestHick Genuinely asking (as I don't visit Pure Xbox,) what was your reaction when Asha said gears would be a console exclusive and then immediately followed by State of Decay coming to PS5? I was actually shocked that it coming over but I would like know to how the general Xbox oriented players feel about it? Having ES6 as a console exclusive would be a ballsy move but that would move the needle no doubt about that.

Re: Round Up: Alien: Isolation 2 Previews Say It's More of the Brilliant, Terrifying Same

I liked Alien a lot but man they did drag out the ending a little too much, so here's hoping it's more streamlined.
