Re: Halo Confirmed for PS5, Remake of First Game Out in 2026

@RoomWithaMoose I agree with that order except Halo 2. Seems like you have a bit of Dark Souls 2 syndrome! Because the first one was so good you were disappointed with the sequel. Landing on Halo for the first time in CE is definitely one of my best gaming memories. Let's hope Halo Studios have nailed the remake. I'm definitely inspired to play the entire series through before it comes out.

@KilloWertz Well it seems that changes hve been made. Sprint for example and they've included weapons from the sequels. MGS 3 has prospered with a refresh. No reason why Halo can't do the same. It sounds like Halo just hasn't grabbed you. I'm the same with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. Really can't see what the fuss is about. If a game isn't for you, it isn't for you.

@RoomWithaMoose I have to disagree with you there. In Halo 2 you get to play as an elite and visit Covenant environments more extensively. It felt even more epic. Each to their own though. Luckily all of the installments up to Halo Reach were excellent and 4,5 & Infinite are also very good but never reached the heights of Bungie's efforts. It will be very interesting to see how PS players embrace Halo: CE.

Well having played all of the Halos since day one, this looks amazing. I hope it's a success because it might mean they remake Halo 2 which was the best one for me. Halo really has got it's own unique atmosphere, the music is exceptional and the gunplay really is second to none.

Re: PS6 Could Be Less Than Half the Price of Microsoft's 'Very Premium' Next-Gen Xbox

PSbox

@LazyDaisy I'm thinking this way too. I have had PS & Xbox since the PS3 but the only PS exclusives I really want to play are the Nioh games these days and they are on PC. It would be fantastic if I could play some PC games not currently available on console too. I spent £800 on a XSX & PS5 so a premium price isn't too offputting. I would want the option of a decent extended warranty like MS has offered on Xbox through the years though. Best start saving!

Re: Ninja Gaiden 4 (PS5) - A Bloodthirsty Action Game Ripped Straight from the PS3 Era

@PuppetMaster Blimey. You are quite emotional about it. You've chosen one PS exclusive which I haven't even heard of. And hasn't NG got the same status as Tekken as a 'classic'? A remade NG2 Black got 6/10 forgodsake. Team Xbox are equally myopic. The IGN video review is the best I've seen. A true fan of the series. He gave it an 8. Even stringent reviewers such as Metro and Eurogamer gave it an 8. Most outlets have given it an 8. I'm currently near the end of a playthrough of NG Black. NG4 has certainly improved the combat mechanics. 7 is very average for me. And the Xbox games you've listed.... I've played them all.... Like I said, add 1😉
