The price always scared me off. I bought a Meta Quest 3 520mb headset which was cheaper, great Headset but like the PSVR/2 it feels like entry level VR. Meta are already talking about Quest 4 so that's where their priorities lie probably.
I can't see this game ever getting a 60FPS update, comparing RDR2 to GTAV is silly, the game was great but it's no GTAV, the most popular game EVER (for better or worse). If they are going to do anything, my money is on a RDR remake/remaster. More likely a remaster, for the money grab. Hope i'm wrong.
Doesn't really mean much unless you can see other Studio sales numbers. Who are we to know what is good or bad? All we have is speculation. It's interesting like but that's it, as much as people here might really like these games, they are not that popular to the masses. This is Sega ffs
Good game and reminds me so much of when RL launched on PS+, but this time it's on GP, dammit, been playing it over there. Minor latency issues but other than that nothing really. Hope they don't start adding tricks, that's the reason I don't Fifa. That rainbow (whatever) kick is already being abused, imagine if they add more. Personally I think it will be a RL contender, certainly a decent alternative at worst.
Aww man, I heard about this at work, not gunna read the comments Just came to say personally i'm gutted Hope they have another MP game in mind but meh, whatever /shrug...../cry
Unfortunately I don't like playing old games, tried, can't do it Anyway i'll give Endless Dungeon a go and maybe TSW, you never know I might like it...
I don't think this game is aimed at anyone except people that enjoy MP games. I played a little yesterday and will play some more, up to now I agree with the 6/10, it doesn't fell to great/good yet. Being a fan of MP I will persevere though, not many good MP games out there.
@roguepanda88 Hope so. Can't see it myself. Thing is there's no online this time and as great as the SP was the MP was the main attraction and the only reason the game is still in the charts. Lets hope i'm wrong.
@Outlawed_Samurai Well lets hope so, I don't want it to sell bad. I'm assuming you have some experience in the industry? I can't argue with what you say because I don't, 2 or 3 people and a couple of weeks work sounds rather quick and easy for a game like this. Wouldn't they have done it ages ago and do it for all games, if it's that simple? I wouldn't know.
Edit: Maybe it's a marketing tactic? Makes sense to make a mill off an update rather than throw it in for free at the start Or maybe they just didn't have the means to do it at launch /shrug, who knows?
@Frmknst Doubt it, they stopped support a long while back. No more jobs/content/updates. I suppose they may add some gold to entice players back but I don't think the online will receive any content sadly. GTV is limitless as to what they can add but because of the setting in RDR2 it's limited. Unless they were to add flying horses with gatling guns lol.
Better load times are always better. Bit late in the day though. I can't see them making enough money back to cover the costs? Surely anyone who wants to play this game have played it already, great for people that own the game but I can't see many people buying it fresh for this, especially if they played it already. Great game imo, enjoying DG more though.
Also the most popular part (the online) stopped recieving support about a year ago..
Not bad because of FBC but the rest are bad. All on GP as well so that doesn't help. The article said be brutally honest so, this service is terrible I'm partly to blame because i'm still going to pay for it. The only way to judge something you pay for is to compare it with its rival services and well, it's obvious so i'll leave it there.
MS aren't going anywhere. It's insane to me that it is even a thing people on PS are talking about right now. They don't even mention it on Xbox, it's unimaginable because things are so good over there and have been for a while. I can only only speak for myself but it feels like this whole debacle should be the other way round. What are Sony going to do? (Rhetorical) but meh whatever. The gaming community never ceases to amaze me
Lol, funny. Boys will be boys. if I was a modder I really wouldn't bother with making bewbs bigger though, kinda lame, must take a while as well. Probably my age.
@theSpectre Nope, i'm used to Extra being bad now, last game I played was Dave the Diver o.O .Good game, plan on going back but it's an indication of how useless the service is to me atm. I can't remember what I played before. The only way to judge something like Extra is to put it alongside its competition and no, no matter the general opinion on this site, that isn't the Switch 2
Sounds like Stranded Alien Dawn, great game. Looking forward to this. Hopefully (probably) can pause the time so you can make the big decisions with a bit more thought. SAD (lol) had me stressed on the harder difficulty.
Damn that sucks, great game and enjoying the remaster. I see the usual hate for live games, sucks but there it is. All I will say is that consumers want live games so that's where the money is, it's not my fault or any other live players fault that the people in charge of giving us our chosen genres are greedy ***** They will always be my preferred genre, i'd take one good live game over ten good single player games. The industry just needs to sort itself out.
These are terrible. Maybe it's because I have GPU but these are terrible, might just be my taste but to me this feels like a joke. It isn't broken right? That top tier (I actually pay for ) has one game? And it's a PS2 game? I don't play anything PS3 or earlier, hell I don't like it when I play PS4 games. If you're happy, more power to you, i'm not, i'm going to drop a tier. I'm not angry but even as a guy that just lets my subs tick away, you only need a couple of games a year to justify the price, Extra doesn't even justify that anymore. Maybe a shadow drop? /shrug something needs to happen in my opinion.
I don't care for first party games, just games and none blew me away. I've read up on them PS and Xbox (screw Nintendo) and literally nothing tickles my fancy. Practically all SP as well and the big event!! Another CoD, well blow me over with a feather, who wudda thunk it, there's another CoD coming out. Piss poor tbh. I'll just filter through them as they release, play the ones on GP and buy any of the others in a sale. The only one I may pay for is CoD, if it's any good this time, gotta get that MP fix.
Aww man love this game, playing through it atm for the first time. I only got back on PS when the Pro released so didn't play it the first time round. This is my favourite PS exclusive by far, to be fair i've not played them all yet but this is a grand game, love it, ticks all my SP boxes (well most). It's better than any game i've played on my Xbox in the last couple of years at least. They should absolutely make a sequel.
I don't watch these I prefer to read about them. Sounds like it was pretty decent, I personally like non exclusives, then we get to choose the best place to play our games. Lets face it, some of these will be on GP. It's a shame PS have nothing to fight GP with, I would much rather play on my PS. Some of these games coming to Premium would of been a better announcement for me. That's where the real competition is for PS. The services other platforms provide and PS really need to up their game.
Couldn't care less, will play it when it hits Game Pass, I wouldn't pay full price for this game anyway. Looking forward to it though, Just finished Doom, another game I wouldn't pay full price for.
Didn't watch it but i'll be buying the game even though the Ciri parts of TW3 were the worst parts. Bought TW3 on launch (different account) and i'll be buying TW4 on launch as well, loved it. There's still to far untill launch, I try not to get dragged into any hype.
Wuchang and Alters are on GP so that's where i'll be playing them. Wasn't to keen on DS1, good game, to slow, was planning on going back so don't know about DS2. Maybe after I finish the DG remaster after I finish Doom on GP. We'll see, i think that's a reasonably good list for a so called slow month, not bad at all.
Mp games will always reign supreme now we have the internet. Until the greedy nature of Devs is curbed somehow though, online gaming will always be a minefield. MTs suck.
@EfYI I agree, the Pro is a great console and is certainly worth the money (to me anyway) I will absolutely keep it, love it in fact. It is the best console out there right now, best looking, powerfull and (contrary to popular opinion on Xbox) has the best controllers, they really are good controllers.
I just don't really agree with the articles claims that this is the best time to buy one, I think the only thing MS/Xbox have over their competitors is Gamepass unfortunately, I don't think they can keep it up that up forever though. Right now though GP is massive. I mean just today they added Metaphor Rephatazio (or whatever) and Spray paint simulator. Like I said, GP is the ONLY thing they have going for them, it can't last forever.
I love my PS though, wasn't trying to bag on PS, will be buying i girl on PS soon, I don't buy games on Xbox anymore, which is another negative for Xbox and GP. Just need to work my way through some GP games and i'll be back on Days Gone Remaster. No worries
I don't think it is, I bought my Pro at launch and have barely played it. Gamepass is the main appeal and smashes anything PS has to offer unfortunately. It's expensive to game on PS, anyone who for some reason doesn't have a console already would be much better suited to Xbox and Ultimate. Unless they are fine playing old games on Premium, or have the money to buy every game they like. This isn't a fact, just my opinion as I really thought I would smash my PS more and am quite disappointed tbh. Games for me now are more about the services, options for gaming, choices, the massive catalogues available, not just the price of entry and how much each game costs. That's the old restrictive way. Certainly how it feels to me.
I'll give Bomb Rush a bash at some point, not really into older PS1/2/PSP games, i'm not one for nostalgia or handhelds. I prefer new games and to leave the old ones to memory, Never had PSP anyway.
@GeeEssEff Never been tempted, I don't know why but it just doesn't seem important. I don't do it for other things either, we have so many subscriptions in our house saving £40 a year just doesn't seem worth it when we already pay so much for everything else /shrug. I honestly don't have a decent reason as to why I don't bother but I probably never will. There's five of us in our house so you can imagine how many subs we have for everything.
I pay full wack every month for Ultimate/Premium. I cba'd looking for discounts, I just direct debit them out of the bank. Ultimate is worth it, Premium isn't, i'll still pay it though. They do this with everything from mobile phones to cable TV, existing customers don't get a look in so i'm not surprised Sony are doing it. Literally every corporation does it.
Sounds right up my ally (no pun intended) I prefer MP games and bought my Pro because I can turn crossplay off in MP games but alas it hasn't worked out that way. I love a grind so this might be for me, certainly sounds like something I would enjoy. RPG, open world, building, crafting, resource gathering, levels, unlocks and the more the merrier! Will buy this at some point, have plenty to play right now (on Xbox sadly) but i'll bang it on the wish list and get it at a later date. Good stuff.
I don't know if it will be good or bad in the end but if you play on Xbox right now it feels pretty damn good. Recently bought a Pro but Premium is awful. I thought i'd be playing my PS none stop but with Gamepass being so good lately it's hard to stop playing my Xbox. The only question and doubts I have is how long can MS keep it up? As soon as the games dry up on Gamepass then they have nothing else (kind of like PS and exclusives). If they can somehow keep the games coming at the same quality (which I doubt) forever that they have over the last few months, Xbox are onto a winner. It certainly feels like it is better for the customer on Xbox right now, like I say, I don't know about the long run.
