@Frmknst Yes you are correct, it was free to play on the ps plus catalogue 3 separate times with the last time being available for over a year. This may soon be available as a free game on ps plus to download but still not a free game as once you don’t have ps plus and connect to the internet then your “free game” no longer works
Ai is a tool as is a keyboard. I remember when the first computers came out and people would say the same thing. Scold others for using a pc to write and do their projects. Most who fear amazing tech when it’s new are the ones who will end up using it the most later on.
@JimmyRiddle They need to take their time to another masterpiece. 12-13 years from last release but they didnt spend much time on gta6. Full team was working on RDR2 after gta 5 and then the pandemic caused issues. A good 5 years on a game makes them perfect. Same with gta 4 and 5. Took 5 years of full development. Gta 6 is a little past 5 years of full development but had worldly issues in 2020 to also deal with
Doubtful, the original is a masterpiece. The only downside imo is the warthog controls in the final act.
People need to know that when Halo Combat Evolved launched it had no online mode as Xbox Live was not “live” yet. So this is a pure remaster in my mind.
Nearly 5 years into a console generation and the consoles are 30% higher cost. Usually at this time the console is at least 30% cheaper. Also PS5 is on par with 2017 gpu standards as consoles are 3 years behind at release.
@Americansamurai1 Black was pretty insane, the story is deep and twisted. Only one song but one of the best songs ever imo. The maps were pretty insane also. On the one map you can shoot down an airplane in the distance then access that part of the map to go into the airplane.
@RobN Astro bot first appeared in 2013 on “the playroom” game bundled with the ps4. Followed by “playroom vr” in 2016. “Rescue mission” was the third game to follow Astro Bot in 2018.
It would be better if Xbox just became a game publisher and put their funds towards that. No use in having a console war. It pushes tech but full of cons everywhere else.
@Member_the_game Even if there is a sale with 5 days left on your subscription you can still buy the sale price. It will just add it on so you would have 1 year and 5 days left at that time. You can buy as many subscriptions as you want at anytime. It just pushes the renewal out.
@get2sammyb Its safe to assume there will be Switch 2 updates for current switch games since it has near fully BC. Cant wait for the endless posts about which switch games get switch 2 updates. Tbh i cant wait for Pokemon SV switch 2 update assuming there will be one.
@RudeHero Calling Astro Bot a ‘Mario knock-off’ oversimplifies the platformer genre and underestimates the creativity behind Astro Bot. Yes, both are 3D platformers, but that doesn’t mean one is a copy of the other. 3D platforming has been a staple of gaming for over 30 years, and Mario wasn’t even the first platformer to exist—it’s just the most iconic. Games like Crash Bandicoot, Banjo-Kazooie, and even Sonic Adventure helped shape 3D platforming into a broad and diverse genre.
Astro Bot stands out not because it mimics Mario, but because it innovated with VR mechanics in 2018. Its use of virtual reality creates a sense of immersion and interaction that’s completely unique to the platform. The perspective shifts, environmental interactions, and creative level design make it a distinct experience, not a rehash of Mario’s formula.
Comparing every 3D platformer to Mario diminishes the creativity of developers who contribute fresh ideas to the genre. Astro Bot is a love letter to platforming as a whole, not a carbon copy of one franchise.
@LifeGirl Kinda doubt it, GTA 5 released in 2013. It would launch on ps5 and have an updated release for ps6. Easy money, gta 5 is still on high on the weekly sales list
