Urrggghhh

@riceNpea really edgy making jokes about a domestic abuse survivor 🙄

I'm glad I wanted to wait until the ps5 version. Just recently finished it and thoroughly enjoyed it and it was only 20 quid so that was a bonus.

@Icey664 I don't get how there was no mention of Buffy, she's even been in CoD!(in one of the zombie mode DLCs)

I usually wait for the first price drop before I get a new console. By then there's more games out (and the launch games are cheaper).

I could have been tempted to get a ps5 though since I've saved money last year with no holiday and no nights out. Bought a new telly so would like a ps5 since my ps4 isn't even a pro (no UHD gaming for me). So if buying one had been easy I probably would have caved.

Is the next version likely to come with more storage? That could be another thing worth waiting for.

Well the bloody prove your not a bot things are not obviously working, even though I seem to fail them on a regular basis.

It would be cool if they changed the law on this. But I thought the tories prefer deregulation? Let the markets decide, greed is good and all that. Thatcher's legacy still going strong.

Was originally gonna pre-order but then I saw a trailer and thought "oh this looks like a cheap knock off of Cyberpunk" then realised it was a trailer for Cyberpunk. So I already thought this game had been oversold with the stuff they were promising years ago.

In fairness I want game developers to think big, but equally I don't want to play an unfinished product.

My xbox 360 sounds like it's gonna take off sometimes and that's the slimmer and apparently quieter version. So I can't see this being something that would bother me.

There always seems to be some issue with a new console, this seems pretty minor. My ps4 had the ejecting discs problem (waited until warranty had ran out until it started though) which only happened to the chunky ps4s (thank the gods for YouTube guides explaining how to fix it with electrical tape). Makes me wonder if it's better to wait for the slim version of the ps5 (but then money saved during lockdown is burning a hole in my pocket).

Remake as in changing the gameplay? Honestly I'm not into that. Why not remake the older metal gear games? There's story there most people would like to see but probably can't deal with the gameplay (I couldn't get into it anyway). MGS on the other hand is still very playable, I replayed it on ps vita and really enjoyed it.

I enjoyed Farpoint and was thinking of getting Arizona Sunshine so I'd have something else to play with the aim controller (since the moves are annoying) but if borderlands is aim compatible I could be tempted by that too.

@Athrum yeah it must be bizarre seeing your face with someone else voice coming out of your mouth, especially because the game is so realistic looking.

Which one is naughty dog?

@Matroska about the bloody footprints, Ellie can leave bloody prints if she steps in a pool of blood from an enemy. I first noticed Dina step in blood and leave bloody prints (it was in the snow so it really showed up). I tried it later in the game with Ellie and I initially didn't think it worked but I think I just hadn't stood in the right part of the blood pool.

I hope it has good hats.

I really enjoyed Greedfall. It wasn't perfect but I had a lot of fun with it.

Saddest part of the game was the loss of....

... Abby's gains RIP that's 4 years of training down the drain. And her braid just to add insult to injury.

Finished the game today, really enjoyed it, is enjoyed the right word? It was pretty horrific in places but it made me feel more than most media has of late.

Poor Shimmer, I expected her to die but still. When Dina started her dad joke with a line about Shimmer seeming ill I was so worried she was actually sick, laughed so hard when I realised it was just a bad joke.

I thought going from Ellie to Abby was a really good idea. You go from happily murdering everyone to feeling really ***** about it. I didn't expect to change my mind about Abby. At first I thought it was funny seeing things from Abby's side, I'd be like "tee hee, there's your friend Nora, Ellie's going to murder her later". But I came around to her. I was gutted that Ellie couldn't give up on revenge even when Dina was begging her to stay. Fighting Abby at the end just felt awful, I was glad she couldn't go through with killing her even if she realised too late. (As for her killing hundreds of other people that's just video game rules, we need something to do.)

The game somehow took me a full 360 about the dogs. I started off not wanting to kill them because "aw poor dogs". Then after getting Ellie's face ate so many times I was like "okay f you dogs!" Right back to "oh no not Alice!" I was genuinely more sad that I'd killed Alice than the pregnant lady (Mel was mean to Abby, understandable but still).

@Mad001 @Mad001 yeah I wouldn't usually play them out of order, I did start up me2 but it seemed like too much of a chore. I wanted to get back to the reapers instead of fighting the collectors.

Just replayed 1 and 3 (skipped 2, I've played it lots and unpopular opinion but it's not my favourite). The graphics didn't really bother me. Things like not enough autosaves in me1 were more of a pain. While my xbox is still kicking dunno if I'd really need a remaster, can't see them making much improvement.

Currently replaying andromeda and there are certainly improvements in gameplay (more the jump jets and the driving than the sudoku) but it's too big and I miss our galaxy. The animations made me laugh but I could live with it. The biggest mistake imo was the move to another galaxy. You spend 3 games creating a fleshed out galaxy and then you mess the ending up so bad you have to travel across dark space to get away from it.

How difficult is it compared to the first game? (Or compared to the uncharted games) I'm undecided if I should play on normal or hard.

Superman was the first to come to my mind so glad that's back. Loved those sorts of games back in the day but dunno if I'd find it frustrating now.

So triangles huh? It looks impressive but lots of games already look pretty. Telling a good story and/or being fun to play is more important. But then again I don't buy consoles until the first price drop so I don't suppose this is meant to impress me.

Maybe some cool indie games will pop up from people having a productive lockdown.

I think ME1 still has to be my fave. Maybe because it's the first so the galaxy and the aliens were new. And I actually like the Mako, I love the idea of Shep frightening her crew with her terrible driving.

I replayed ME1 with my favourite Shepard just to have something comforting to play for lockdown. The gameplay is fine, biotics are over powered (except against drones) and enemies all just run at you shouting "enemies are everywhere! I will destroy you!" But that's kind of part of its charm, I'd probably be disappointed if they changed it.

Odyssey was barely recognisable as an ass creed game so the future sections just felt very tacked on. I'd have preferred it to just be a new rpg series and they wouldn't have had to bother pretending then, but obviously the name is a selling point.

Crap. Google knows I wanna play this game so will probably show me a spoiler once they've spread over more of the Internet >_<
Hope this does end up speeding up the release though. What's the point of delaying now?

@BleedingDreamer I know right? I'm gonna be rinsing through my games while in lockdown so a new game would really help.

How are the moves compared to the dualshock controller? I would imagine they could be more intuitive for sculpting shapes?

@Fuzzymonkeyfunk I'm on the 100MB version which is fine connected by ethernet but the wifi in certain rooms is utter crap. So I guess it's not even just the fibre coming into the house you have to worry about.

What sort of broadband speeds do you need for cloud gaming though? The UK seems pretty behind on super fast fibre and I can't see it improving that quickly.

Similar mechanics to Odyssey but with Vikings sounds fab. I wanna play as a badass shield maiden so if there's only a dude protagonist I'm not buying it.

Did kinda feel like they needn't have bothered making Odyssey an ass creed game though, I really didn't care about that side of the story.

They should chuck in a free VR game, surely a bunch of ppl would have got PSVR for xmas

The moves are the main issue for me, I wanted to like them for Skyrim (shooting fire from your hands is cool) but I had to go back to the controller. Still really great experience. The aim was great though I've only used it for farpoint so far.

The resolution doesn't really bother me, sometimes the scale irks me though. They really need a slider so you can adjust it easily. Although I dunno if part of my problem is that I'm short irl (therefore on games like blood and truth it seems odd to me that I'm as tall as the men in the game).

I do think psvr is making vr more accessible, even if it hasn't sold in huge numbers it's the sort of thing ppl show to their friends so it's putting the idea out there.

I concur that it did influence other games to go down the open world route. But I think it needs to be said that wasn't a good thing for all games, I'm looking at you Bioware games.

Games as service always makes me think of "free" mobile games, bloody micro-transactions have wormed their way into most games now though. I do think it's ruining gaming but hopefully the response to Anthem and Fallout 76 will have developers thinking twice.

On the one hand I do want to support games that try something different, on the other hand I think brand new games are too expensive. Wages have stagnated but prices keep going up. Games do go down in price pretty quick probably because a lot of ppl don't wanna pay 45 to 50 quid on a game they might not even like.
