Wasn't too fussed until the reviews came in. Only problem is.... Oh no! I don't have a backlog. Just some games I haven't played yet, inanimate objects that hold no sway over fate and won't determine what I do next. Schmacklog. WO LONG NEXT (in a few weeks after some patches).

@Cikajovazmaj That's a very interesting idea, base awards on the aspects unique and important to games. Though I would expect Elden Ring to win all of those categories and Ragnarok would take the highest animation budget. 😂

@Cikajovazmaj It is literally the game of the year. Most talked about, one of the highest selling and critically adored. It deserves it. God of War does a few things just as well or even better, especially technically , but Elden captured the elusive zeitgeist.

First one was just far less good Sekiro with ponchos for me. Combine that with Disney induced indifference to Star Wars and... Meh.

"When I first saw Robocop it changed my life." Me too, bald developer dude, me too.

This game is looking like an absolute blast of fun after the snoozefest of Dying Light 2.

@nedbvai last I read it was due to trying for a T rating instead of M in the US. Which is kinda funny as all their fans seem to be in their 30's.

Cody in this before the AEW game even has a release date. Wow.

Game story was more interesting. This was nice and well acted though.

Just make Vampyr 2 you nerds!

@thefourfoldroot1 They did stop somewhat short of giving characters outright blatant superpowers. The more outlandish combat stuff in 7 was justified by Ichiban's perspective. Let's see if they can walk that tonal line without Nagoshi-San.

The true test of any great actor is whether they can look like they're actually playing a video game. 😂

@Tsushima Good call Kyodai!

If this was Black Flag by another name with a bit of refinement it'd be my most anticipated game by miles. Live service multiplayer loot grinder with no narrative? Not interested.

He should get 'created by' credit with Druckmann. Other than that, the property belongs to Sony. If he wanted to get paid... he should have stayed.

I feel a bit like the whole racist / right wing categorisation of negative reactions is becoming a bit of a smokescreen for sub-par products. The demo was underwhelming, but if it gets good reviews, I'm definitely interested.

@Type_Trubbish 😂

@nomither6 😂

Holy f**k s**t. It's f**King Frey from Forf**kingsaken. F**k me sideways.

Hopefully it makes you feel like a well.

Awesome. Hope we hear more soon. Could this be a sort of counter programming to Star field?

This was confusing as heck until I realised it was a different thing to Wu Chang: Fallen Feathers

@Azex I too like the axe

@dark_knightmare2 Exactly! Even if you did just make that up. 😂

@Max_the_German I just meant that GOW is a more than valid choice for playstation focused gaming. In the wider sphere of games, Elden Ring is pretty indisputable.

I think for a playstation dedicated site and the kind of games playstation gamers like, then Ragnorok is the right choice. Elden Ring is The Game of 2022 though.

@rockodoodle Hope you enjoy it. It has a bit of a steep learning curve, but once you're over it it's really an awesome game.

Bannerlord is awesome. Hope more people check it out on PS5. Should come with an addiction warning though. 😂

@KAIRU eh?

Your game of which generation? 😁

I bought Horizon physically so I can sell it on. Elden Ring was a digital preorder, only the second I've ever made. Horizon is good, but it's a championship team to Fromsoft's Premier league.

That don't work for me, brother.

Just keep it away from whoever made that terrible Lord of the Rings fan fiction. Get David Joffe or Corey Barlog involved to avoid the dispassionate fan fiction route.

I like Druckmann and his commitment (in part 2 at least) to narrative decisions that repulse and enrage some players. That's an artist. One of the few working in the AAA space. Multiple times in part 2 I hesitated because I didn't want what was going to happen to happen. It's a different emotion to the usual "***** yeah I'm a bad ass" empowerment feeling that most action games offer.

Awesome news. Can't wait to see where they take it.

@ShogunRok Hearts of Stone is still a 10 IMO. Such a great story.

Traversal was kinda boring. Just hold circle and off she goes, maybe it gets more skillful as it expands. Combat was cool, particularly the machine gun type spell. Too much needless profanity though, a lot of "f" and "s" seemed out of place.

So I can't punch the animals right? Pass.

Days Gone was a solid 7/10 game that got solid 7/10's.

Also, no one listens to woke critics. See the respective success and failure of Top Gun Maverick and Amazon's LOTR: Rings of Power.

Life is Strange with angsty alphabet dinosaurs..... sure, why not?

This game is like a sandwich that is only bread

Surprised that crazy Argos deal didn't put Horizon back up there.

I grabbed Resident Evil 3 for £8. Played through it in one sitting and for that price I was very happy with it.

@Marquez FML? Over that? 😂

Not finished yet but so far it just gets better and better. Wasn't too enamoured for the first half, now I don't want it to end.

I've seen other sites translate that comment as they will learn lessons for a sequel. Though patches seem to be needed as the reviews really have ran the gamut from great to terrible.

Get Ghostwire - Tokyo on there please ☺

Batman the Animated Series is an all time great and Mr Conroy was a massive part of what made it so good. That show was a big part of my childhood and I remember trying to impersonate his Batman voice on the way to school. Thank you and RIP Kevin. Best wishes to his friends and family.

Do you think the Max Payne remasters will tie it in somehow 🤔
