Given the absolute dumpster fire state of Destiny 2 at the minute, Im not really holding out hope this will be the success they need it to be.

IGN? Lets get you back to bed Grandma.

Regardless of your feelings on EA, this is gross and a dark day for the games industry. I never cared for their games but now I know I will never touch their games.

Im most excited for the Non VR version of Alien Rogue Incursion tbh looks excellent!

Played the beta a lot more than i expected over the weekend, was great fun tbh but too many big games out this month, I already have Borderlands 4 and Alien Rogue Incursion pre-ordered, so not a priority purchase for the foreseeable

Was all sounding good until the dreaded "souls-like" appeared. Very much enjoyed Atomfall, so would have picked this up if it wasnt a souls-like game.

Dead and buried. Looks like its all down to Bungie / Marathon now and well....

They finally did it! This has to be the single most wanted feature in the game since day 1, cant wait to boot this up later!

I just get strong Minds Eye vibes from this game

Just shows you all these people care about is moneymoneymoney it's no longer good enough to make a great game that will sell millions, now they want it to have shows, films and all that BS. The chase for money always leads to the death of creativity and reputation.

Lets hope the door hits Hulst on the way out right after ole Pete Parsons from Bungie has been pushed through them.

Good riddance, I hope the door does hit him on the way out!

Its Not just people in the D2 community happy about this, a lot of the ex-staff members (and presume most of the current staff) seem to be celebrating this.

Best game of the night tbh Imagine if they added Orko and She-Ra

Game of the year! I know thats right

It amazes me why there is a dedicated page / tab to "New Games Released this week" as standard, would be very helpful when browsing

I loved the first 2 Bubsy games

Now sack Pete Parsons and toss him into the sea, but this is probably the best for Bungie in the longterm, its VERY clear whatever is going on over there isn't good.

I also dont think Marathon is going to see the light of the day, and if it does, its going to tank not just sales wise but Bungies rep even more.

ooh yes, glad its getting good reviews! at the top of my wishlist ready for tomorrow

This sh*t is what happens when the greed takes over. Wish them every failure they deserve

@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare " The level of hate and derision on a game that isn't aimed at 98% of the people on this site is of course, predictable."

Bit unfair, the game isn't reviewing well anywhere, well apart from thesixthaxis. Im sure people will enjoy it and thats perfectly fine, but lets at least be informed before chucking out things like the above

First Gollum, now this, the Middle-Earth Shadow games seem like a long long time ago

But also, I was low-ley rooting for this to be good, a chill LOTR game should have been a slam dunk, but oh well!

This being a "flop" is squarely down to Ubisoft, perhaps if they want their games to sell well, maybe don't release them in a broken mess in the first place. A groundbreaking idea!

But but I thought £80+ games were also "in line with current market conditions" aka also known multi-billionaire companies being caught out in a greedy lie, but also MS has to contend with barely anyone buying their games on XBOX anyway, so..

As has been proven multiple times over the past 2/3 years the best games of the year are often the ones at a £40 / 50 (sometimes less) price point, and shock horror they didn't need bloated budgets and 1000 people working on it at the same time.

People have less money, less time and we're all tired of being scammed out of our money for poor value and services and If they want £80 games to be the norm, then they better be damn sure they are releasing a complete game at launch and that isn't filled with pointless MTX's.

So does this mean I can pair my dual sense to my laptop for use with Steam etc?

Snapped up the £39 quid for LTD Edition AC Shadows, pretty nice deal.

Please stop giving these idiots a platform.

The OG Concord! Farewell thy Anthem! Shame they never got a chance to turn it around.

Microsoft are bad for the gaming community, full stop.

Feeling dreadful for everyone losing their job today through no fault of their own. Less said about Phil Spencer the better, what a rotter he is.

Still waiting on those 8K Games that the base PS5 is capable of according to the sticker on the box...

I got this as well, but you can easily get around it, by selecting another version of the game from the drop-down menu. (did this in the app btw)

I would agree with this tbh, had great fun in the campagin and in the initial spurt of endgame until they dropped the "nerf everything fun" patch. They've been fighting an uphill battle ever since

Calling it now. Bungie will cease to exist as they are this time next year, the upcoming D2 stuff is looking like being a disaster as well, and Marathon needs to be put out of its misery before anymore money is wasted on it

The screen shaking while running.. lmao

The extended scenes of them rolling about and hiding behind cover while nothing is there ? Unintentional comedy gold.

Oof! Well at least Forspoken will have company in the janky rubbish pile. I wonder if the Devs will even attempt to fix / finish this game or just leave it in the digital dumper to rot away until it appears on PS+

Im NEVER paying £80 for any game. And I hope most people dont

Absoutely terrible, I get not every year can be full of bangers, but this just made me realise theres tooo many games being released and most of them are junk! Thank the gaming lords for Atomic Heart 2 and RE9

I hate all Marvel stuff, but as a fan of fighting games, this actually looked amazing!

Gave it a very good! Loads of stuff I wanted to play!

The way im more hyped for this than Death Stranding or Ghosts of Yotei lmao I'll be snapping up that physical edition

I miss Driveclub, Imagine what a proper PS5 version would have been like * sigh *

Im looking forward to The Alters next week and thats about it for the next few months for me

Nothing of note at what I class as "Sale" price.. I mean 50.99 is NOT a sale price for a digital game and 28.99 to.26.99, what a discount..LOL

I binge watched all of season 2 yesterday, and I dont think its bad at all. It was always going to be impossible to translate Part 2 into a TV show in the way it deserves.

It was complicated and traumatising to play as a game and part of that was the actions it made you do (whether you wanted to or not) and you cant do that in a TV show.

All the actors are doing a great job with what they've been given and with the limited number of episodes per season, but that also restricts what they should be doing, like why bother even showing the SCARS at all when no time is given to properly intro them, unless thats more of a Season 3 thing.

Trying to play Tainted Grail, but its launched with so many bugs, screen tearing and crashing that its impossible to play.. so have ended up hooked on Palia for a bit of chill comfort gaming on a rainy day!

Play No Mans Sky instead.

Time for Sony to step in and fully gut the poisonous leadership, its the only way for this company to survive. Lets face it, Marathon is going to bomb, not on a Concord level, but there is not a single path in front of them that will be the success they hope / need it to be.

Launching an underbaked PVP only extraction shooter, with lack of features that's available in every game of its type, the poorly received beta, the stolen art assets, this game is dead before its even begun. If they wanted to relaunch Marathon, a modern Boomer Shooter was right there in front of them, they could've plopped in a PVP mode as well.

Lets not talk about Destiny, im yet another BETAD1toD2 Veteran, The Final Shape was my send off, and thankfully it was fantastic. They shoulda kept D2 on life support for a couple years until a D3 was ready to go, launching a whole new era while stil in D2 is bonkers, it makes no sense, this was the perfect chance to change and start fresh, but Bungie Bungled that as well.

I wanted to buy it physical to sit alongside the previous 2, but after the nonsense of it just being a key to download, and costing £70, and it being available on Gamepass.. It was a def no thank you, now Im more than happy waiting for it to plummet in price.

Is Tainted Grail a Souls-like? It looks pretty decent but I cannot be bothered with yet another Souls-Like combat game.

Gonna have to hard disagree on this, when most games are releasing at that price are launched in a broken state, takes months of patching, then we have MXs and DLCs on top of all it.

Ive spent countless hours and had more fun in games like Balatro, Vampire Survivors, Stardew, No Mans Sky than any big AAA game this gen

Kinda glad the support is over, absolutely one the worst MK games so far, bounced after a couple weeks and never returned. MKX still remains the best of the new MKs.

More AI, More BIGGER games, the money men just dont get it do they, they are single-handedly ruining the industry.

Most people want just a good game, and it doesnt need to be 50+ hrs long to be that.
