Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Is Already on Sale Just Two Weeks After Release

I wish I could have been in the writer's room for Black Ops 7.
Writer 1 (takes puff from joint) "Well, everyone hated all the cartoon stuff like Beavis and Butthead and Nicki Minaj. What should we do next year?"
Writer 2 (does line of coke) "I know, let's have a boss fight with a human kaiju!"
Room erupts in cheers
Writer 3 (shoots up H needle) "Yeah man, in another part they can fight a plant!"
Screams of ecstasy fill the room.
Writer 4 (the bath salts are out) "Dude for the final boss have him teleport every time you shoot at him!"
Room is complete chaos
Writer 1 "We're done here!"

@Art_Vandelay Great point. I know it's only a matter of time, but I just don't like the idea of being trapped in there too long, as cool as it is. I've been looking into AR glasses a little because I like the idea, but will probably skip those as well. I don't need all that stuff. Take care!

I have the PSVR 1, and it is amazing tech, but after like 20 minutes in it I'm done for the day. Until it becomes lighter and wireless, there's just so much you can take. I know the 2 improves on this, but not enough. Plus I hate that there is no backwards compatibility with 1. Aside from the games, I would love to actually sit through a movie with it but can't. I have a lot of 3d movies and they look amazing in VR.

Re: GTA 6 Delayed Again, Pushed Back to November 2026

Long wait but understandable. Had to watch the trailer again. As a Miami native, even though this is a fictional version of it it is literally amazing how they so nailed the city in this. This is so realistic I could have sworn I saw friends of mine in the trailer. Can't wait.

Re: Open Source PS2 Emulator Now Plays Almost Entire Console's Library

Steeleye25

It's amazing how far emulation has come. I started building an arcade in my house in 2017 using Arcade 1ups. First started modding them with Raspberry Pis, now I am using PCs. I have one self made 1, then 2 from a company called Buy Stuff Arcades who I highly recommend looking into if you want to go this route. I also have a digital pinball machine with a Nintendo Switch attached, and another Arcade 1up with a PS4. I emulate pretty much everything from the Magnavox up to the Switch and everything in between, including arcades games. It's fun just to skim for new games as well as playing favorites. There are 6 machines total, and it's been a really fun hobby, although I probably work on the machines tweaking them more than actually playing.

Re: PS5 Fans Divided Over Helldivers 2 on Xbox Pivot

Steeleye25

I've always been a PS player. The last few generations there were only a small handful of games on Xbox that interested me. Now, I am finally playing them on my PS5 and love it. I want Xbox players to enjoy the same thing. I hated the whole "my console is better than yours" crap. I don't understand why anyone would be against their favorite games reaching a wider audience.

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for April 2025 Announced

Steeleye25

Good selection of 2 games I already own. Think Robocop will surprise a lot of people, it was way better than expected. It's always really cool getting a game sequel to a decades old movie, like with the Ghostbusters game. Wish they would make more of these. TCM was ok.

Re: Sony Seemingly Issuing Isolated Refunds for Civilization 7 on PS5

Steeleye25

Good for them. Wish I could say the same. I pre-ordered the Star Wars Battlefront 2 collection. On the day it came out, I tried playing split screen with my daughter. We tried 5 matches, and were kicked out of every single one within 2 minutes. Sony then denied my refund stating the game would "eventually be patched" even though my playtime was about 20 minutes. I was furious. Of course, the game was eventually patched, but good luck finding a server with other players on it.

Re: Ubisoft CEO Defends Skull and Bones Premium $70 Pricetag, Insists It's 'AAAA' Quality

Steeleye25

This is the same idiot who recently said that gamers need to get used to not "owning'" their games after making a decision to deactivate several games. I'm playing the Beta and I do like it, but it is not worth the price tag. It's a very repetive live service formula of just running back and forth and doing the same things over and over to improve your ships and standing. It's good mindless fun, but I don't see it lasting in the long run.
