Now that Marathon has been changed to be another soulless Hero Shooter, I wish it was releasing this year, just for the mess of it all!

I have a feeling it'll end up being shelved after Bungie watching all the feedback Concord is getting.

@PuppetMaster Its not "just" a farming sim, and thats all I'll say on that

@Kanji-Tatsumi People shouldn't get over the review at all, mainly because it was one of the worst things ever written on this website, it was clearly written by someone who had no interest in the game whatsoever (which is fine btw) but if your gonna give any game a 3/10 score (also fine) you would expect the review to go into details about why, there was none of that, what was written was inaccurate and didn't include a single thing about anything the game had to offer beyond shooting things with guns.

If you read and look to reviews to inform part of your judgement on whether to play/buy a game then you should want reviews to be written well and detailed, and this review just wasn't any of those things.

I barely play my PS5, its just dusty bones at this point. I'm mainly playing retro or indies when I can be bothered to game with the occasional bit of D2 thrown in, this gen has literally put me off gaming for the first time ever. I did not fork out almost £600 to play remasters of last gen games and bland cookie cutter cross gen sequels. Where's the innovation? the new IPs?

He's right but the gaming landscape is very different to when Warframe was released, its absolutely over-saturated with live service games and if your game isn't making an impact on release, its pretty much facing a near impossible task to recover from it.

The only game I can think of that was abandoned too early was Anthem, a real shame it wasn't given its proper chance. Nobody is sticking about for generic superhero brain rot like Suicide Squad no matter how many updates it gets, cos why would they? Its nothing special in a market absolutely full of Superhero games.

Concord is a good game? Its pretty much the only website that seems to think it is, after THAT 3/10 review for a game thats doing far better than this. I just dont trust this websites reviews anymore.

I dont wish for any game to fail, as it must be soul destroying for anyone working on a title that ends up that way, but this game is DOA, its not even up for debate. Those Twitch figures are utterly abysmal, if the game was any good it would be attracting an audience, I'm a complete no-mark streamer who only streams once in a blue moon, but even I've had more viewers than that.

Oh goody, another XBOX related article that has nothing to do with PlayStation on a PlayStation website. Enjoy the flame bait clicks I guess

There is literally less than a handful of PS5 only games that have even slightly tickled what the PS5 can actually do, what do we need a Pro for? to make all those remakes remasters cross gen games pop-off? if there is a PRO its just a pure cash grab, this has been the most disappointing gen in a long time.

It finally made the jump from phones to console I see, the mtx and restrictions on the mobile version ensured I deleted it after 3 whole races, theres a decent racer hidden deep, deep somewhere behind the paywalls, which is a shame.

This is a true 3/10 or less game

Its literally just Assassins Creed with a Star Wars skin isnt it

My head says 7 but my heart knows its a 6. Its fun and has surprisingly in-depth build crafting, but lots of room for improvement, and it seems like the devs are taking that feedback on board.

Pre-ordering games to access the Beta is a trend that needs to die, and quickly. If you want people to play your game let them try the demos for free, otherwise what you hiding by locking it away behind a paywall?

Very harsh review TBH, Its not a 3/10 game at all, its most definitely a mid range looter with lots of room for improvement, so falls in the 5/6/7 range. Quite a few different guns with unique abilities that def can change a build quite a lot.

Review also doesnt mention all the buildcrafting and modding possibilities, which can get quite involved and can change your character from a wimpy glass cannon to an overpowered DPS machine.

Is it grindy? absolutely, if you want those OP mods and builds youre gonna need to grind a bit for them, but its relatively straight forward as the game signposts where you get the resources and mods to drop from, so its just a matter of replaying certain missions, boss fights etc

Its holding my attention more than I expected, and I prob wont delve tooo deep into the buildcrafting and grinding, but having fun with it atm

"appeal to ageing fans of this once-great subgenre" Now why do I feel personally attacked by this lol Game looks good though, im going through a little bullethell phase atm so game is landing in my sweet spot, currently replaying Gynoug on the ole PS5, still as great as it was.

Im enjoying atm, its very Warframe meets Outriders, it is nothing like Destiny 2. I know its free, but the customisations and MTX are over the top insane in this, excluding the battle pass, we have Panda costumes, gross school girl costumes, and then theres all the other stuff, like namecards, spawns, UI interfaces, weapon skins, colour palettes, all for real money of course.

So i'll see, I'll prob play the campaign but the insane grind for everything and all the MTX stuff will prob make me lose interest much quicker than expected.

TBH I think this it just settling down to its actual player base numbers after a period of extreme hype, if it can regularly stick to 45000ish, there shouldn't be too much to worry about, pretty decent numbers for a AA live service game.

Not gonna lie, its the first time im tempted to try one of the annual cash grabs, I mean sport games.

I used to feel sorry for his wife, but she chose to remain with a complete piece of garbage. Trash, the both of them.

Ahhh Game,, where Pre-owned games were more expensive than the new unsold versions

Astrobot is the big one for me.

AC Shadows and the Until Dawn remakeremaster are both on the wait for the patches and the sale list

Hardcore survival, doesnt bother me at all, adding in PVP with it means i'm 100% checked out from this going forwards.

Doomed for the beginning really, if your accessory cost more than the already very expensive thing to play it on, nobody is gonna bother apart from the ultra-die hards.

Astrobot and eventually AC Shadows are they only 2 games im taking from that list, my wallet sleeps easy.

This looks so janky! even by ubi-standards, think im gonna hold off on buying this at launch, but pleased to see they have continued the long AC tradition of featuring children with terrifying adult faces.

Its been an absolutely brilliant expansion so far, they really knocked it out of the park, been playing since D1 days, and seeing the story end got me choked up a few times.

The way the campaign continued into the insane raid and then continued into a final 12 player mission once the raid was beat for the true end was masterful.

Smells like it could be a could be a good PS+ game at launch

But none of this was Bungies fault? It was on Sony.
The exact same thing happened to the Elden Ring DLC the week before. Its easy to throw crap Bungies way, but this wasn't on them.

I am SO so tired of the Marvel-esque witty quips stuff. Its proper brain dead nonsense, its an immediate deep sigh and a turn off.

They really will do anything and everything but make an Isolation sequel, like there's your money bag right there.

I mean does it need changed? Works perfectly fine as is, just seems like change for the sake of change.

Streets of Rage 4 is brilliant btw, highly recommend trying it!
And i'll take Dredge tomorrow!

Yes to the gameplay
No to the battlepasses

Anyone saying this is an L for Sony are out of their damn mind! 170+ plus countries can now keep playing a game that was sold to them, it isnt their fault PSN isnt included in their country, Sony should never had sold the game in those countries in the first place knowing they wanted to introduce the psn requirement

And thats how you kill a popular game, well done Sony slow clap This is actually insane on Sony's side tbh this feels like one of the those permanently damaging your reputation type of things, and honestly they deserve it.

I would be gutted if we never got a proper "3" in the series, Legion was dreadful really, and a WD Battle Royale? I'm glad that was cancelled

This sounds like they are improving the Mirage-style Linear World, which i'm absolutely all for, Valhalla the never ending put me off overly bloated mostly empty open worlds for life.

Oh no, I was hooked on this all of last summer on my tablet and looks im about to have a Hot Vampire Summer all over again

i'll take Dave the Diver and Deliver Us Mars thankyouverymuch

£80+ poorly developed unfinished games on their way soon!

This all but confirms a new AC game in the final few months of the year then. Noice!

Might "only" be £35 but its a far better game than the cookie cutter glossy shallowness of Spiderman 2

I dont really understand this... I have zero interest in this game but if I want to see something like Forza or Starfield on a PS5 then this game needs to sell well? Make it make sense!

Its impossible to judge the success of other types of games based on how well some semi live-service game sells, whats the metric, sell as many copies as it did on XBOX? where its also available on gamepass.

Having an OLED / VRR TV, 60 fps over 30 very much makes a difference! Graphics dont make a difference if a game feels like crap to play

Well its a British poll and honestly whats a more iconic British game/character? So not really suprising! Now if it was a poll of Americans, im sure Mario would be up there at No1.

@wildcat_kickz

The resource grind is no way near how it was, you can literally ammned your game to play however you want.. ie resources, abundant! or switch your save to creative and never ever worry about having to pay for anything or run out of resources ever again.

They deserve the world to be honest, its a small team and they have slogged their guts out to deliver high quality updates and all for free, they have more than earned the right of "being redeemed"

No Mans Sky is a game I play weekly, its just a lovely vibe and to do whatever you want, and with no microtransaction stores or overpriced DLCs or login bonuses its just a game that respects your time however you want to play it.

Super refreshing and super chill, and its always the game I turn to for a bit of escapism if im having a hard time of it in the real world.

Cant wait for all those new quality AAAA games like Skull n Bones!

"LOL"
The PS6 Pro will be released before this game releases
