Re: Poll: Did You Buy Dying Light 2: Stay Human for PS5, PS4?

Valgore

I've rented it and I'm loving it. I really enjoyed the 1st one and this one is great too. The graphics are good but I've have noticed a few tearing issues during cut scenes on the ps5 so an update will need to fix that but it's not game breaking. I'm not very far in at all and I'm having to get used to the controls again due to them being different to most games (R1 to Jump) but overall I'm happy with it. Look forward to progressing further.

Re: Sony 'Vastly Overpaid' in 'Desperation' for Bungie, Says Outspoken Analyst Michael Pachter

Valgore

Although the numbers don't stack and point to a rushed acquisition, I'm hopeful that it's the future that is being planned for here where money can be used to make Destiny better and also for the talent to be able to work on others projects and hopefully bring out another great fps. I'm also confused because I saw that this buy out was in the making alot longer than the MS/Activision buy out??

Re: Sony Buys Ex-Halo, Destiny Developer Bungie for $3.6 Billion

Valgore

This is great if they plan on using the talent to possibly work on another FPS but as long as they keep games that are already Multiplatform, multiplatform. I don't like that MS took franchises that launched on Multiplatform and made them exclusive and I don't want Sony doing the same. These acquisitions sound crazy and it's gets us talking but it really worries me for the future of gaming as a whole. We don't need Tit for tat and gamers losing games they love to be made exclusive. If this keeps happening then the only people that will be able to enjoy the games they like will be to own both Consoles and thats not a cheap task for people with a money threshold. Just feel like this could end badly for gamers in the long run.

Re: PS Plus February 2022 PS5, PS4 Games Announced

Valgore

Tiny Tina I completed when it first came out and highly recommend it if you haven't played it. UFC 4 is OK, I enjoy the fighting but the career is lack luster which is a shame. I've never played planet coaster so I'm gonna give that a go for sure. I really wish PS+ would stop with not giving both ps4/ps5 versions of a game if it's available.

Re: Ubisoft Pulls the Plug on Watch Dogs Legion PS5, PS4 Updates

Valgore

@Bentleyma I agree mate. I'm enjoying Assassin's creed valhalla and I'm 60+hrs in and not even gone to lundon yet. Watch dogs 2 was OK but I wasn't that fond of the whole edgy teen/young adult vibes. I didn't enjoy Legion at all unfortunately but I'm always interested in what they bring next.

Re: Talking Point: In Theory, Could Xbox Game Pass Come to PS5, PS4?

Valgore

MS constantly says that they want people to enjoy gamepass on anything so maybe this is something they want to look at in the future but Sony won't do it if it hurts thier bottom line too much. I like the idea of having a dedicated Gamepass app though and being able to access Bethesda games ect. I feel like Microsoft could offer future Cods but only on gamepass and offer that to Sony. If Sony say no, then MS can say that they offered and sony turned it down.

Re: Poll: Does Sony Need to Take Action After Microsoft's Activision Buyout?

Valgore

I read an interesting article the other day about the possibility where Microsoft asks Sony to put Gamepass on the PlayStation.... I have to admit that I actually wouldn't mind that at all, with a dedicated app that let's you buy gamepass if you want. By doing that people will still get to buy what ever console they choose without losing out on games being exclusive to Gamepass but I doubt that would happen and if it did I very much doubt Microsoft would do it unless Sony gave thier 1st party titles to gamepass or made them for Xbox too. Way to crazy of an idea I think but you never know.

Re: Sony Responds to Activision Blizzard Buyout, Expects Games to Still Come to PS5, PS4

Valgore

If Sony do have a contract in place with Activision then I think that will be honoured by MS like the others but I think it all depends on the length of contract. If MS does plan on making COD exclusive and say the contact carries on until 2025 or longer then MS might feel that paying out of the contract would be better although it wouldn't be a good move for PR. If Sony did renegotiate a deal with Activision then I would expect that to be a 5yrs+ but you never know. I guess it's all a waiting game for now. Does anyone feel like this is a good thing that MS are buying out big publishers and making thier games MS exclusives??

Re: Reaction: Activision Blizzard Buyout Is Devastating for PS5, PS4

Valgore

This is such a BS move. I'm not a big fan of Cod but they did it with Bethesda and now Activision, Who's next? How is this remotely good for gamers? The problem MS will have is if they keep doing this and Sony does pull the plug on the PS then Microsoft will be the only big boy in the market. When you have no competitors you get lazy and the buck will only stop with them. Like I said, as a gamer I don't think this is good for gamers at all!

Re: Xbox Boss Reacts to PS Plus, PS Now Rumours, Says It's the 'Right Answer'

Valgore

Obviously Spencer saying this is a great way to get the hype going for what will probably be a disappointment. I think Sony does need to rival GP and offer Day 1 releases of 1st or at least 3rd party games. No matter what Sony's new sub service will get compared to GP and the backlash with be swift and brutal but will eventually die down. The question is, is what Sony doing going to bring more people over to PS or will people still thi k they get better Value with GP? At the moment I do believe that GP is an amazing value for what you get so I hope Sony can make me feel like that with thier new Sub service.

Re: Talking Point: What Do You Realistically Expect from PS5, PS4's Game Pass Inspired PS Plus Reboot?

Valgore

This probably won't be a popular opinion but I truely feel that Sony needs to match Gamepass here or go further if possible. Comparisons will always be made and if the price is too steep and doesn't offer the equivalent of gamepass then alot of people won't purchase it. You look at Halo, the new Elderscrolls, outerworlds 2 ect and they will be day 1 releases on Xbox which is amazing if you're a fan of them. If Sony could do the same with thier games then it would be a massive deal and people will be over the moon I think. Like I said, just my honest opinion.

Re: Rejected Days Gone Sequel Would Have Swimming, Better Animals

Valgore

It's a massive shame that we won't get Days Gone 2 because I loved the 1st one. I thought the biking theme was great and enjoyed it alot, the refuel problem I never had because it just became second nature to make sure I had enough fuel. I loved the hoards and I enjoyed the story. I would love to play a number 2 if they ever do decide to give it another go.

Re: The Elder Scrolls 6 Isn't Coming to PS5, But It's Not About 'Punishing Other Platforms'

Valgore

Hmm although your list is questionable like spiderman (the new marvel spiderman was created as a 1st party title and was never said to be multiplatform) Like I said before, taking a multiplatform game franchise/series that started as multiplatform and then making that game exclusive is imo bad for gamers. I'm talking about games like outerworlds where number 1 was on both but now number 2 is on Xbox only and ES where that's been on both for years and now that's Xbox only. That's not good for gamers.

Re: New Horizon Forbidden West Trailer Features Gameplay and Costumes

Valgore

I'm a huge fan of the 1st game. I 100% that game and just loved it, yes I did find it abit tedious here and there but I loved the world and really enjoyed the story. One thing I hope we get to see more of is old world/this world caves, I really enjoyed finding those caves and exploring and finding cool loot with lore too. I know it's not meant to be tomb raider of the future but I just really enjoyed that aspect of the 1st one. Really looking forward to this.

Re: Sonic Frontiers Takes Sonic to an Open World on PS5, PS4 in 2022

Valgore

If and it's a big IF, that they can pull this off then I'm all for it. Gives me and my boy something to play. I really want to see upgrades in this sonic, upgrade his boots, some accessories and even some extra cool unique upgrades that add some abilities. Something that fleshes it out more. I'll keep my eyes on it for sure.

Re: Former Silent Hill Developers Announce Slitterhead

Valgore

Have to admit, I wasn't expecting that when I saw from the creator of silent Hill. It was all weird, dark and scary then it hits with awesome tunes and what looks like abit of action then back to dark and scary. What ever it is I'm all for it. Give it to me!!! (in a totally not weird way)

Re: Reaction: Merging PS Plus and PS Now Makes Sense, But an Xbox Game Pass Competitor Can't Be Half-Arsed

Valgore

I've been waiting for Sony to do something like this, if it happens then great but it needs to rival gamepass. If Ms can pull off day 1 releases then I expect Sony to be able to do the same and all within a decent price like gamepass. I just foresee this being underwhelming and I hope I'm wrong but I do want to see Ps5 games available straight away with a massive selection of ps4 games and obviously previous gens too. I just think if Sony is going to do this then they need to go all in and make it a service where people actually say "WOW" and throw thier money at it.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Thankful for in Gaming?

Valgore

Due to my mental health conditions, gaming has literally saved my life many many times. It's pulled me through some very dark times and making friends online who I've been able talk to when ever I've got on has been brilliant, granted the friends have kind of gone away now as the many years have passed but I still talk to some of them here and there. It's still the best way for me to escape my demon's.

Re: CDPR Still Confident It Can Turn Cyberpunk 2077 Around

Valgore

I've still got my copy that I played once on the ps5. I knew very quickly that there were things missing and major issues so I turned off. I've been waiting for the ps5 edition to come out so then I know it should be fixed (I hope) I remember them saying that an upgrade to the Ps5 version will be free too so I'm just waiting to play it because I think it's got massive potential and I was gutted with the way it was released in the state it was in. I'm hopeful.

Re: Rumour: PS Plus December 2021 PS5, PS4 Games Leaked Early

Valgore

Mortal shell I've owned on the ps5 since it came out but never really played it but this has reminded me to give it another go. Godfall I rented and I wasn't wowed by it at all at release but I'm willing to give it another try, hopefully it's been improved. Lego games aren't really my thing but my kid will love it, overall it's not that bad of a month.

Re: WWE 2K22 Looks Like It Could Be a Smackdown on PS5, PS4

Valgore

I'm hoping the AEW game will be good and that it does well because this will drive competition between these games and when there's competition there's usually innovation and that would be great for wrestling games. This looks good so far and I'm looking forward to seeing more about it in the new year, hopefully it does what it says and has an impact because the last few have been pants.

Re: The Elder Scrolls 6 Isn't Coming to PS5, But It's Not About 'Punishing Other Platforms'

Valgore

I personally think that having exclusives in this day and age is stupid, I understand the need for sales ect but this isn't about the gamers. This practice needs to stop so gamers have the best chance to enjoy the games.
I also feel that taking a game that has been multiplatform and making it's follow up games exclusive is just wrong in general, Elderscrolls 6 was bought up ages ago and up until the Microsoft buy out, I was assuming and I doubt I'm alone in that, that it would be a multiplatform game. It's also the same for outerworlds which I also love, that was on both and then to find out number 2 is Xbox exclusive was a kick in the nuts.
So now in order to enjoy those games I'm going to need to get an Xbox aswell. I just feel that unless you have the money, gamers will lose out which isn't a good thing.

Re: Feature: PS5 Report Card - How Is It After One Year?

Valgore

I love my PS5 but there are things that bug me about it too. I actually like the design of the machine but it's massive! I've changed mine from white to black with new plates and it looks so much better and fits in with my other electronics now which are all black.

Ps plus is definitely hit and miss for me and I do long for a day when PS makes a game pass equivalent because ps now just isn't that great IMHO.

I have other niggles but my biggest one is the duel sense.... With the addition of adaptive triggers, I do find myself wondering how long will it take for the trigger components to wear and thus end up needing to replace the controller, I can imagine they did the testing but it's still something I think of and even more so on games that use it heavily like deathloop ect. It's not cheap so I'm hoping it lasts a long time because it could be costly in the long run.

Re: Best GTA Games

Valgore

@theheadofabroom I enjoyed 4 but I fully understand where you're coming from. I would definitely give 5 ago for sure. I loved the story, the characters, the environment. It's a lot of fun and definitely worth a try.

Re: PS Plus November 2021 PS5, PS4 Games Announced

Valgore

Kingdoms is a fantastic game which I've completed 3 times or so. It feels very Fable influenced and that's not a bad thing at all. I'll give it another go for sure. The other games are not for me unfortunately and I can't do VR because it makes me sick haha. I know this sounds entitled but I was under the assumption that with PS plus we would be getting console exclusive titles like games made for PS5 if you had one, not games that are ps4 and will work on ps5. I just thought Maneater was the start of Ps5 exclusive titles being offered for the Ps5 (ps4 version came after I think) and then the others would be Ps4 and VR. Does sound very entitled actually but I hope you get what I mean.

Re: The Noticeable Absentees from PlayStation Showcase 2021

Valgore

For me the showcase was amazing. The trailer wolverine gave me goosebumps and to also see a trailer for spidey 2 was epic, I know they're far away from releasing them but it was cool.

I do wish we had some news on PS plus/Now and even some old games getting PS5 upgrades.
