Re: Interest in Destiny 2 Reportedly at an All-Time Low

This whole situation is so sad, and so anger inducing. I havent really played since Lightfall, mainly because it was pretty dreadful and I was tired of all the grinding the game expects you to do, I've finally broken the habit, and this comes along and only re-inforces that choice.

I feel dreadful for all the people laid off, for all the people demanding changes but to go un-noticed and now kicked out because of the managements greed and ignorance, would have loved to have seen the game to its endpoint in Final Shape, but I just cant spend another pound or any of my time with it again, it feels grubby and it feels gross.

Their reputation and their game is now in the gutter, very hard to see how they come back from all of this.

Re: Reaction: PlayStation Boss Jim Ryan May Have Been Disliked, But Leaves Big Boots to Fill

A lot of people might end up missing him I think if the right person isnt put in place of him. I didnt think he was a very personable CEO, but I suppose its not his job to be, its only an added bonus. He's said some utterly baffling things over the years, but he's been more often good for the brand than not.

I hope Cerney gets the job, he's got the knowledge, experience, is a gamer, and is pretty much well liked by everyone.

Re: PlayStation's 2024 Release Schedule Is Already a Joke

PaperAlien

@ShogunRok Dont think People are really saying that at all, no doubt its a grand list of games, but these aren't "playstation" games like the headlne infers, barring one game these are all being released on Xbox, PC, Switch and most of them are still being released on last gen as well. People are just poking fun of that really, and also Sony have been V quiet on the 1st party front for next year and beyond, which is unusual really.

Re: Mortal Kombat 1 (PS5) - Good But Not a Flawless Victory

PaperAlien

I would prob give it an 8, but the review is pretty much where Im at with it. Invasions is tedious and dull, and im already struggling to want to keep playing it, I really would rather have had the Krypt, it feels more in keeping with the games tone than a weird board game-esque thing.

Also the less Johnny Cage and Sonya Blade the better, there are far more interesting and exciting characters to be found than these 2 most obnoxious Yay America! Cringe Quip commentary sterotypes.

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for August 2023 Announced

PaperAlien

Dreams really is at Deaths Door bum tish Dreams should have been given away right at its launch, it might've stood more of a chance, so giving it away while its just about to have servers chopped is an odd move.

Looking forward to trying PGA though, the PGA games used to be the game that me, my brother and parents would all play on a weekend back in the PS2 days.

Re: Rumour: PS5 Pro Release Date Reportedly Slated for November 2024

PaperAlien

Madness, we literally have a handful of true blue PS5 games, and they've maybe not really pushed the PS5 as far as it can go, The PS4 had a solid catalogue of PS4 only games when the Pro came out, so I could see the point of it, esp as some of those games were pushing the limits of a PS4 standard.

To me it just seems like greed and a massive smack in the face to everyone whose finally been able to get one after 2 years consistently low availability, and im assuming 4K 60fps with Raytracing as standard would be the main push, but I dont think that will justify the price they would presumably ask for it.

Just seems like the wrong time imo, gives off bad vibes really.

Re: PS Store Summer Sale Live Now, Get All the Best PS5, PS4 Deals Here

PaperAlien

Hands up who guessed that most big PS5 games would come in at £52ish LOL my wallet is absoultely fine in this "mega sale" PS Store has a problem, their sales are now dreadful, predictable and full of the same games rotated in a 6 week cycle.

They are always the same price on sale, and theres very rarely any big surprises you might find to tempt you, its same old,.same old.
