@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

Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying Halo: Campaign Evolved on PS5?

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.

@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.
