Warhawk is what got me into online gaming, and introduced me to friends I still game with to this day.
That being said, nostalgia is a liar, and while it's fun....it can't hold the attention it once did. But I really wish there could be some sort of updated version that could capture the old feelings while advancing with the times.
@Agramonte It was sent August 26th. I thought it was wide spread, but it appears from my buddies, it's been only 2 who received it. My fault. I have no idea why or how I got it.
I'm all for more stimulation. Rumble has always been something that I don't really know how much I need/enjoy, unless my kid turns it off. It adds to my experience, maybe not front of mind, but when I play something without it, it feels empty.
I'm also just ready for the PS5. I look forward to experiencing things, rather than reading about them....but then again, that's been video games most my life. Yet I still grasp at every little detail before a launch of a game/console.
I'd be curious how many folks subscribe for sales/PS+ and how many are in for multiplayer?
I would pay for only multiplayer, because that is a huge draw to play with my buddies. So the games can be a nice surprise, but are never a disappointment or insult.
For those that don't subscribe for just multi, I'm curious if it's the "free" games that drew you in in the first place. or what other reason have you subscribed for? Just honestly curious.
I don't blame websites for reporting, but I kinda miss the days of surprises. Granted this is not super shocking news, but man, this industry cannot keep many secrets anymore.
Note, my avatar is a very close representation of me, so I am an old man complaining about the "good old days"
I'm starting to wonder if the constant leaks that occur to E3 news is what is leading Sony to looking at their own event. This year is too important, and I'm sure they want to make a massive splash...and leaks always seem to kill that vibe.
I'm not an unlockable collector, so I'm not worried about maxing it out. I love the game, and I'm so happy with the new maps and the fact that even though I bought the pass, it makes no difference (other than cosmetic) when I play with my buddies who did not buy the pass.
Honestly, I bought the pass, because the Mara operator was something I wanted, and didn't mind shelling out for that and more. Give me stuff I want and not things I need to keep playing the full game, and I'm more likely to spend.
"Happiness is having something to look forward to." I'm a sucker for anticipating things and reveals. I love when RockStar slowly introduces videos for upcoming games. I cannot wait for PS5 information to start coming to light, and then the wait for the ultimate launch.
I don't like that the controller doesn't look like it has an analog stick. Walking using the Move controllers is currently not very comfortable and my biggest hope is a stick like they have on the AIM controller.
Not getting worried yet....but I'd feel better if that image had some hint of a stick.
Love baseball, love the show, and really appreciate the use of the Atlanta Braves as the screenshot.
RE: The "World" Series...I get it, it's only an North American thing, but like hockey, the best from the world come to the MLB, so there's that....I know it's a reach.

Re: Soapbox: Bring Back Warhawk on PS5, You Cowards
Warhawk is what got me into online gaming, and introduced me to friends I still game with to this day.

Starhawk tried....and sadly didn't succeed.

Who chose the Acuña Jr. photo? Always a good choice.
Re: New PS5 Ad Highlights Next-Gen Features and Lightning Speed
@eddie429 Yeah, just give me a button to press and take my money. I'm not first day on a lot of things, but consoles have always been my weakness.

Re: New PS5 Ad Highlights Next-Gen Features and Lightning Speed
I got an e-mail last week to sign up for the pre-order alert e-mail from Sony. So hopefully we're close.

Re: Far Cry 6 Announcement at Ubisoft Forward Appears Increasingly Likely
@BearsEatBeets Statler always needs a Waldorf. It's more fun to yell at clouds in a group!
I remember how awesome the God of War and FF7 Remake reveals were. Those are rarer and rarer.

Re: PS5 Reveal Event Scheduled for Thursday Has Been Postponed
Tough call, but it makes sense. On a human level and a marketing/business level.
Re: Talking Point: Could PS5's Price Be a Problem Against Xbox's Rumoured Lockhart?
I will own a PS5. I love my PSVR, my friends are all on PS, and Naughty Dog and a slew of other awesome developers are with Sony.
I do have Game Pass for PC, and it's a great deal.
I think I'll always be a PC/Nintendo/Sony gamer.
Re: Is a New PSVR Launching Alongside PS5 This Year?
Just give me better tracking and controls with a joystick. I would love better visuals, but controls are more pressing to me.

Re: Guide: How to Play MLB The Show 19 on PS4
@ApostateMage @nessisonett I bought it too a few weeks ago...oh well. You win some, and lose even more.
And I'm still confused about rounders. I've learned all my non American sports from video games....and I haven't run into a rounders version yet.

Also....what is Rounders?
