Does that mean when Mad Max was free on PS+ you jumped back on and immediately updated its score tonday how fantastic it was as it was huge game that was now completely free so now worth 8/10 instead of 6/10?
@Party_Cannon wow. Such an ageist and so insulting because I’m such an old man 👴 I’d best retire from games or take my youth pills and start thinking Fortnite is the greatest thing ever invented haha.
You see my point and understand where I’m coming from, but quite rightly, disagree. That’s quite a mature response. Everything else? That’s just needlessly personal and insulting and makes you a disgusting human being. True response from a keyboard warrior, with nuts as huge as basketballs as long as he’s miles away behind a screen and anonymity. Good day to you my boy.
@get2sammyb half of my comments in the second post are about the game and the state of VR market producing budget fodder “games” like this instead of full fledged actual video games. It’s basically flogging a dead horse, but people still willing to buy crap like this because they’ve bought the headset.
Look at other games that have been rated 7/10, a “game” like this should be getting 5/10 tops otherwise it’s misrepresenting it against other games rated at 7/10
According to this review, pushsquare recommends this over Beyond Two Souls and Mad Max? Actual games
Has no application or real benefit to video games as whole. It’s the wrong tech applied to the wrong medium.
The “experience” side of things as offered in VR Worlds is actually awesome and really had to be tried to be believed, can’t recommend it enough. But that is not video games.
I think in terms of offering an immersive experience to people or even as a therapeutic medium for the less-ablebodied, it has real potential and is a phenomenal experience.
Integrate into a real time handing word and it falls to pieces, can’t deliver and takes away without adding anything to the experience. Fact.
Graphic engines can’t handle it, the extent of pixelation and motion blur to the field of view ruins any immersive feeling. Controls become laboured as you attempt to approach the same game with a new view and it really presents more obstacles than anything else. Hence this back to basic las looking visuals Football game.
It’s all real bargain bin End-of-life Wii type gaming that people are buying to excuse the entry price of the VR set they are now stuck with.
There is no system selling app on PSVR and there never will be. Wrong tech for wrong medium.
PS5 should (and could) be in the same form factor as the Switch.
If 4 years from now the PS5 could bring us PS4 Pro performance with the unbelievably accessible form of the Switch.
PS4 has power, but Nintendo have brought WAAAAAY more to the table this gem and delivered probably the greatest leap in gaming hardware in history.
Evolve that with the power current gen static console hardware like PS4 to next gen and you’ve got something even more amazing. Graphics and production costs are both sky high right now, following Nintendo’s lead and trying something innovative in Sony’s legacy for a change would stand them in good stead.
The best thing for gaming in the future is if all multiformat games were cross platform.
You buy a format for the exclusives, not the multiformat. Expanding the pool of players to cross format on multiformat breathes a lot of life into multiformat and benefits all platforms. If I buy PS4 to play god of war and FIFA. Then FIFA is multi format cross play, why would I suddenly buy an Xbox one and FIFA on that? Makes no sense and is a pointless point to make.
@Flaming_Kaiser I never asked for them, I don’t want them. I’d rather spend the £50 on games throughout the year that I actually want, not rent whatever they say.
Got this yesterday and am going through the tutorial aspects at the beginning.
Was expecting something huge and stunning after all the, “this could not run on anything but PS4/Xbox One”....... got to say it’s no more expanse and breath taking that’s Xenoblade Chronicles X. Bit deflated about it. Hopefully the gameplay will dazzle when it kicks in.
Neither machine is outselling the Switch another healthy dose of using statistics to prove whatever you feel like proving.
If we’re goign all Sony’s consoles against Nintendo’s then just outsold Sony by over 10,000 units yeat again.
“But m m m m PS4 and PS4 pro are the same machine and play he same games!?”
What’s actually No.1 in that list?
“But But.... But Sony!”
What’s No.1 in that list?
Truth of the matter is Monster Hunter is due.
In Japan Monster Hunter is HUGE!
You’ll get a momentary surge in hardware sales because of that particular game and then it’ll die down to the standard level till the next HUGE game for that territory.... which is a slew of Switch games.
Sounds like it suffers same problem as resident evil 7. Excellent execution and design and then runs out of steam and ideas for the whole final section, probably to meet a deadline.
“A delayed game will eventually be good, but a rushed game is bad forever”
@SuperSilverback you’ve never played Twin Snakes then?
The first one was the best one by miles. None of the others sucked you in in the same way and the characters only got thinner and less original.
I think 3 is hugely overrated and the whole mucking about with camo and eating wildlife just seemed out of place and gimmicky. The fact it turned out you weren’t even playing as snake made it even worse. Why create an amazing character to play as and then sack him off for most of the sequels?
4 was good and at least we got snake back.
Not a fan of phantom pain or sons of Liberty. Weirdly I did really like Metal Gear Rising.
But as far as Metal Gear Solid goes, Twin Snakes took everything that made the original one of the best experiences ever and rebuilt it for next gen with Kojima. It delivered an utter ode to the original game and made it amazing all over again if you ever wanted to go back and relive it with out having the PsOne muddy graphic engine befouling your TV.
@ShogunRok it’s not really any less relevant this time than it was last time. It’s also no less repetitive than the article itself.
The point about the image of solid snake used in the article was a new point of mild interest that actually gave credence to the previous post, so was worth a nod.
@ShogunRok I know, I was there when I wrote it. It was a rhetorical admission of “reluctant” I told you so. It sure what point you’re making though except for acknowledging you can read?
Don’t want to repeat a point. But these ain’t PlayStation characters haha.
Definitely solid snake over big boss. I hated the almost total removal of snake in exchange for big boss. Snake was bar FAR the best character and the one that actually launched the franchise. Using the Nintendo character model of Snake for the “PlayStation” character poll also seems a bit stupid and kind of shows that this “PlayStation character” poll isn’t for Playstation characters
@AnimeGamerFan I won’t be wrong. To me, it looks dull and in-original. I’m not saying others won’t find it fun, I imagine kids and fans of spiderman will love it. As a a stand alone game, it doesn’t look worth the time.
There’s plenty I’m looking forward to on PS4 this year, this however is not one of them.
By the end of a 9 minute video it already seems repetive and so damn boring. Nothing inspired or cool at any point. Looks like spiderman 2 on GameCube that’s borrowed some elements from Arkham Asylum.... unsuccessfully. The whole thing is way too reliant on QTE events, more like real-time events peppered throughout a QTE game.
If inFamous 1 and 2 are anything to go by, I’ll be passing on this. Gameplay looked dull and repetitive spiced up with pre animated action sequence, like a bad sonic game. Looks very pretty though.
Hopefully a demo will be available, otherwise zero chance of buying without a play test first.
This and god of war seem way over hyped and actually look as boring as their recent predecessors. GoW got boring after III; probably why Sony had to be convinced on producing a new one.
@WanderingBullet it popped in the bottom corner when I finished the final ryu vs Ken fight.
You have to be logged in to the CFN whilst playing it.
Also go back through all the fights. All of the “character vs character” boxes will have a blue flag for being completed on easy and a second brown flag for those completed on Extra. Check you have a brown flag against all fight boxes.
Can’t believe the arcade mode wasn’t included from day one over the pointless and annoying story mode. Loose story based arcade mode like street fighter II is all street fighter ever needs offline.
JUST finished for general story mode on Extra difficulty yesterday - phew.
If you haven’t, do it now as That’s 50,000 fight money bonus that will disappear after the update

Archaic controls, underwhelming visuals and overly repetitive gameplay.
Re: SEGA to Publish 'Brand New Narrative Driven IP' From Ex-Quantic Dream Devs
The nagging doubt is Sega’s involvement.
Remember when Gearbox were good?
Then Sega Commissioned them to make an Aliens game?

Sega have a track record of producing garbage. But one can only hope they find their way on this one

Re: Poll: Ultimate PlayStation Character Tournament: Round 1 - Matches 49-52
@SuperSilverback shame that, as it’s the best one.
Metal Gear Solid is the best Metal Gear game in the series, they never bettered it.
