@CP2 I guess these people who already judge the character as "unlikeable" without any positive traits from a few seconds of the trailer needs to do: 1) stay away from this game and go find games that fits with their taste or 2) calm down and wait until they get their hands on the game to see more.
Relax everyone, it’s just a screenshot of a cutscene where the character is supposed to be acting smug, seeing as she’s some space bounty hunter and ignoring advice from a talking head about a dangerous mission or whatever.
Yeah. And we got plenty of video game characters who's acting smug like Duke Nukem, Bayonetta, Johnny Cage, Kratos, Travis Touchdown, Ken Master, Liquid Snake, Albert Wesker etc and people loves these characters.
So i don't get the complaint as if god forbid a video game character show some personality like acting smug, arrogant, or cocky at specific timing. It would be dull af if all characters behave like a boy scout 🙄
Linneman said he got the impression the businesses he talked to will put their weight behind the Switch 2 moving forward, which still has a vibrant physical market
Yeah. I'll go with retro console + Switch 2 route.
A bit dissapointing with no death traps and few puzzle. But i guess Capcom wants to clear up Onimusha image from "Resident Evil with swords and samurai". Oh well, i will still get this game whenever i have the time and money.
@Noone2025 Not enough people want it? Horizon franchise sold more than 40 million copies with Forbidden West sold 8.4 million copies. You're free not to play the franchise if you didn't like it.
Maybe Sony Music has realized how bad SIE under Nishino and Hermen. So they decided to exclude SIE from this deal despite both still in the same company.
With such a bizarre concept, I asked Luo whether it was difficult to get funding. Unsurprisingly, it was.
“A lot of investors actually didn’t understand the charisma of the game, especially with such a unique idea, it’s very difficult to find another title in the same category for comparison,” he admits. “For them, it's a very uncertain investment.”
I salute both devs and the investors for taking risk towards unique / bizzare game like this, which my guess is it will not sell well.
But i personally will support it especially if it have physical release.
I don't get why some people in here defending an AAAA game with $1-2 Billion budget is okay for having 30 fps. Did some of you are coping with your $80-100 most anticipated game or what?
But the weirder part is some even goes so far with throwing personal attack towards people who have legit reasons why they prefer 60 fps over 30 fps.
Unusual time for posting this feature. Usually you guys posted this on Saturday.
Anyway...This weekend i will play Doom 3: BFG Edition on PS3.
I finished Doom 3 + expansion on PC many moons ago and i enjoyed it despite it's more on a survival horror type than the usual "Rip and Tear" Doom. One thing i didn't like from the PC version is toggling between flashlight and gun. Logically, it doesn't makes sense when human with advanced tech can live in Mars but they can't build an armor or guns with mounted flashlight lol. Luckily they fixed that with this BFG edition.
Also, it's nice they include Doom 1 and Doom 2. I only played Doom 1 a bit on PC but i never played Doom 2. So, this BFG edition almost complete my Doom collection.
@8th_Observer And that's not because some people bought second hand disc. In fact, many studios are still alive despite people bought their games through second hand market.
Did R* got shutdown because say 5000 people bought second hand disc of GTA 5? Nope and there's a big chance those people spent a lot of money buying shark cards for GTA online.
Did EA got shutdown because some people bought second hand copy of EA Sports FC 26? Nope and there's a chance those people gave EA plenty of money from buying ultimate team card MTX.
Heck. 25K people bought a brand new copy of Concord and that doesn't stop Sony on closing down Firewalk.
There's no proof about studios got shutdown because people bought second hand copy. So, you shouldn't spread this claim as if it is true.
@B_Lindz I'm expecting people will talk more about this game after the dust settled and they look far beyond the graphic. We will see plenty of arguments about the characters, story, gameplay, and if the game live up to the hype or not. This site definitely will post a lot of hot reactions from twitter so prepare your popcorn😁
Sure graphics looks great with all the effects. But i expect some groundbreaking gameplay from a game with $1-2 billion budget and from the franchise who popularized and revolutionized open world genre. I mean, GTA 3 was groundbreaking but this one feels like it's GTA 5 with more micromanagement and mechanics like karma and bullet time that already done before.
Also, i'm not convinced with the protagonist Jason and Lucia as well the lack of satire vibe. I guess they can't find creative talent as good as Dan Houser to write the story and characters.
@CielloArc Pro consumer, consumer friendly, call it whatever you want. My point is MS did the right thing, better than Sony who only talked about how they can milk more of their userbase while in the same time they're ignoring part of their fanbase who asked for confirmation if PS4 and PS5 disc can be played on PS6.
@DennisReynolds She doesn't confirm it but with disc-to-digital program there's a chance Helix will have disc drive or at least external disc drive to convert X1 and Series X disc.
But let's say Helix will be digital only then why i should be angry at MS who followed what the market leader, which is Sony, do with physical games? Sony was the one who set the example of completely killing physical games for next gen.
And unlike MS, so far Sony doesn't have disc-to-digital program for Wolverine disc and the rest of PS4 and PS5 disc. So, why i can't praise MS for doing the right decision?
This is a good idea and i must give credits to Asha / MS for doing it.
It's crazy how MS looks more pro consumers than Sony and sadly i don't think Sony will do the same for PS6. The new arrogant Sony under Totoki, Nishino, and Hermen are too far up their own ass. They only care about how to milk their userbase hard and dry.
A game about alternate reality where Japan bought and colonized USA in the 80's that plague with zombies, monsters, and gangs. And it's developed by a Chinese devs. Lol i love it! 🤩
Confirmation for physical release from character designer, Kamui Fujiwara.
30 years ago, Terranigma was released on Super Nintendo Entertainment System. Now, at long last it will be available once again on console and PC, digital and physical.
Why Sony didn't include Demon's Souls remake and Horizon: Call of the Mountain considering both games are PS5 only.
And there's also PS4 only games like Gravity Rush 2, Bloodborne, The Last Guardian, Infamous Second Son / First Light, Medievil remake, Shadow of the Beast remake, or Alienation that Sony can give another spotlight if they include them in that reel. But eh, whatever...
Good luck asking Sony for better digital ownership and refund process when their store keeps broken and can't do simple stuff like showing best selling games accurately.
I think Helldivers 2 became this successful also thanks to Helldivers 1. While it "only" sold 4 million copies across PS3, PS4, Vita, and PC, the game was super fun. It build a dedicated fanbase that support Helldivers 2 at launch and spread positive words for the franchise.
I'm not yet played Helldivers 2 but i spent probably more than 50-80 hours in Helldivers 1. I had so much fun playing it despite all my team was random players.
And like i said, when comes to live service games, Sony should hired 3rd party studio instead of forcing all their 1st party studios to do it.

With remake and sequel, i'm sure they can keep annual release for another 8 years or maybe more.
