Hasn’t there been enough copies of GTAV sold for everyone on the planet at this point. Maybe it’s a money laundering scheme keeping it so high every week lol.
So many people forget that ND has been shipping multiplayer tie-ins since 2009. TLOU2 was the first game that didn’t have it bundled in. They are experienced with making multiplayer games, that translate very well from the Single player experience. U3 was very well received in terms of its multiplayer. It’s a shame they abandoned U4 after how much support they gave 3 and Factions.
You’d think the company standing to gain the most from locking you into the PS5 ecosystem would be the ones giving the upgrades out for free. Sony’s been doing some strange stuff. I miss the fun times of 2009-early PS4
Generic, sure, but it looks like a solid co-op shooter based in Alien universe which sounds like exactly what will be fun for a lot of fans! I’m really looking forward to it!
I got as far as the part where I had some ‘strange person that looks VERY familiar’ handed me to deliver a…..let’s call it a ‘boombox’.
Can anyone tell me how far I am into the game? I’ve been meaning to get back into it….but it wasn’t that fun besides the cool looking bosses and cutscenes haha.
Why get invested in a series that won’t have its sequel on your system? Was gonna be a buy from me, but instantly turned into a ‘nope’ after the buyout.
But I’m super nervous if they ditch the dialogue based RPG game in favor of a combat oriented RPG like Bloodborne. Can’t have Greedfall like jankiness in a game like that.
It mainly stinks for Joirnalists and people that frequent this site alone for news like me. On one hand it’s exciting opening up PushSquare to find some awesome announcement! But on the other hand, when it’s always random, I find myself going here less and less versus when I know it’ll be a big blowout weeek of news.
@mrtennis1990 I agree it can’t be sustainable for the platform holders or the developers (since many move on from games so quickly and never go back).
However, from a consumer standpoint with limited budget, I gotta see where the best value for my money is and currently there’s a CLEAR winner. I don’t regret my PS5 purchase but once Xcloud is running on mobile or PC, that’s gonna be a go to for me if a game is launched there
It’ll be interesting as the generation goes along, if Sony can command a huge lead like they did with PS4 they can probably get away without a Gamepass alternative. However, I think more and more people are seeing huge value in the subscription.
I’m the target audience for DA, had the original on GameCube and so this was a day 1 buy for me. But if I had both and Xbox and PS, I’d have just used a Gamepass subscription for 1 month because I doubt I’ll play this game longer then a month.
@theMEGAniggle my third run I made it all the way to the second boss and had such confidence. Now I can barely get anywhere in biome 2. I suck at this game lol.
I just started playing this a few days ago!! Totally hooked and love it! It’s a shame it had technical issues that gave casual onlookers like myself skepticism about it!
The original Dark Alliance was my favorite game for a long time. This was a day 1 buy for me, but I’m waiting for my buddy to get his copy so we can play together!
Just like the original, gotta play with someone else!
Yes!!! I love this game! One of my favorites in recent years, super pumped for this! I was waiting to get the platinum (hard mode play through) until the upgrade
@Snake_V5 Im not sure if you played each of them on release or in the collection pack, but for me, I played each at release and Uncharted 2 was such a step up over U1 and blew so many other games of that era out of the water, especially for action/adventure and storytelling. (Even during the era of tacked on multiplayer, U2’s was fantastic!)
U3 had better set pieces and graphics and multiplayer. But I felt like the story was a lot more muddy and all over the place. I was overhyped at the time and was really disappointed by it. It wasn’t as big of a jump like U1 to U2 was and the series was coming off of this stellar reputation from U2. For me U2 was the pinnacle of the series. (U4 just seemed to drag a bit once you get to the island)
@get2sammyb I’m shocked Ubisoft didn’t give up on Rocksmith. But this model and targeting all those app based guiar learning tools seems perfect.
It really is an amazing learning tool. It’s taught me so much, and got me playing guitar. I’ve since started real lessons as well, but as a song learning tool it’s unmatched. I was fully playing stuff like Cheap Trick’s Surrender at 100% before ever having a teacher.
Was Demons Souls open like that? I thought you could pick the world you wanted to go to in the hub area? But it’s been 10 years since I played it haha. And never got very far.
@ElMarko Depends what your definition of complete is. I’ve beaten it 3 times and still don’t feel anywhere close to ‘completion’ These games are built for repetition and NG+ imo.
I loved it. It might be my favorite, except for the nostalgia that 5 has for me because it got me into the series (besides failing miserably as a kid at 3)
Perfect length, never stayed in one place too long. Nice side stuff and backtracking. Perfect imo. Also nailed the story and I loved all the villains

Re: Negotiations for Death Stranding Sequel Underway, Reveals Star Reedus
The story was pretty complete, a sequel would be strange.
I’d prefer a totally new off the wall game from him versus a sequel.

I beat this game a few weeks ago. Honestly I think I understood the story better before I played the game.

Jedi Fallen Order didn’t have micro transactions right? It seems like they’re on the right track with their single player games recently.

Re: Hideo Kojima Isn't a Fan of Calling Death Stranding PS5 'Director's Cut'
@Trisque thanks! I guess I’ll give it another go! I’m in between some games now anyways so it’ll be a good filler for me! Haha

@Trisque oh boy….does it get more enjoyable the further you get? Once I got a few vehicles I was enjoying it was more haha.

Dang I can’t believe they’re still putting out DLC for this. I would have thought many people would have moved on.
Re: Out-There PS5 Alternate History Steelrising Shifts Gears in June 2022

This is how I feel about Dark Alliance and I love it

Re: May 2021 NPD: Resident Evil Village Is Second Best-Selling Game of 2021
Glad to see how well received this RE has been. Hopefully they keep pushing for this type of quality in their RE games.
And stop these half baked MP spin-offs lol. Let’s have another Outbreak game lol.

Re: Talking Point: Should Sony Have Its Own Controller Design Lab?
It would do so well. They could easily charge 25% or more on top of the base cost and it would sell like hotcakes.
Like many others, I want a classic themed controller with the classic color face buttons.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Resident Evil Village?
I loved it. It might be my favorite, except for the nostalgia that 5 has for me because it got me into the series (besides failing miserably as a kid at 3)
Perfect length, never stayed in one place too long. Nice side stuff and backtracking. Perfect imo. Also nailed the story and I loved all the villains
Re: Classic PS2 Action RPG Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance Is Being Re-Released Tomorrow on PS4
