Re: Evil Dead PS5, PS4 Game Is No Longer for Sale on PS Store

PocketHotDogs

I love everything Evil Dead but this game didn't do anything for me. Got a bunch of friends to try it when PSN+ dropped it but none of us could get into it. That's coming from people who enjoyed Dead By Daylight and other similar style games. Said that, I'm glad the servers will be online for those who still enjoy the game. Maybe we'll try it again before it fully goes offline.

Re: The Future of Destiny 2 Will Be Revealed Soon, as Bungie Teases The Edge of Fate

PocketHotDogs

I played D1 and D2 pretty hard for a while at launch but fell off a little bit before that big restructure for light levels and whatnot. I tried to play it again mainly for a PS Stars rewards some time back and while the shooting felt great, I was just confused by the game itself. It just didn't feel the same and made me wonder why I liked it for as long as I did. Even though it's no longer my thing, I hope whatever announcement this is, is good for Bungie and the community that still plays.

Re: Suikoden I & II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars (PS5) - Timeless JRPGs Ride Again

PocketHotDogs

I remember going into whatever video game store it was back when I was 15 looking for a RPG when I stumbled upon Suikoden. I heard or knew nothing about the game and the original box art and packaging did nothing to really sell it but I took a gamble and very glad I did. The series has been good (for the most part) and even recently played Euyiden Chronicles Hundred Heroes which was well done as a spiritual successor. I'll be picking this up without a doubt; I just hope the potch trick in Suikoden 1 for guessing the dice returns.

Re: Gamers Are Reportedly More Interested in Watching Games Than Actually Playing Them

PocketHotDogs

To be honest, watching someone else play has always been a thing; it was just a physical when we were younger. Showing my age here but someone would rent a video game for the weekend and we'd go over their house to watch. Sometimes it was only a single player game but we'd watch unless we wanted to rent/buy it ourselves.
Now I'll only watch when it's a game I have a small interest in but have no desire to purchase or seeing if it would push me over the edge to buying. Or, as a youth sports coach, I'll watch a new season of CoD or Fortnite for a little just to stay in the loop when the kids talk about it.

Re: PS5 Pro Will Supposedly Fix Rise of the Ronin's Shoddy Frame Rate

PocketHotDogs

In our gaming days where things get patched left and right for frame rate, bugs, glitches, etc; it should be a no brainer to get this fixed on the current PS5 models. Absolutely no need for someone to spend $700 on a future console to get a game to work as intended when it launched 6 months ago. This is an unacceptable solution.

Re: Scalpers Want $10k to Try to Buy You a 30th Anniversary PS5 Pro

PocketHotDogs

This gives me a great idea to open a store of "attempts" - want this new limited edition PS5? I'll attempt to find it for a fee. I'll attempt to find that rare Pokemon card you want. I'll attempt to do your laundry. I'll attempt to get your wife pregnant. I'll attempt anything at Slacker's Attempts Store!

Seriously though, if you're buying this attempt, you need to be hit in the head with a tack hammer repeatedly.

Re: Fresh Marathon Details Cover Heroes, Pricing, and Bungie's Silence

PocketHotDogs

Helldivers 2 is one of those things that just randomly worked out. Right price at the right time for launch. Not every game is going work out like this and for everyone trying to catch lighting in a bottle, sorry it's not going to happen. I'll keep an open mind about it for now but I have a feeling it's going to be Concord 2.
