Reading the comments I can see the most positive things anyone can say about this game is "it looks gorgeous" and "not boring just not for everyone".
At least everyone's stopped indulging Kojima with his dumb "I created new strand genre" bs. He did help shape the stealth genre but did not create it either.
Damn, this leak was more exciting for me than the recent showcase.
New Dragon's Dogma, Street Fighter AND Monster Hunter? Damn, Capcom! Leave something for the others.
From Square Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster is awesome but I would die if Final Fantasy IX were to receive a remake.
Big YES to all the following: Chrono Cross Remaster, BioShock 2022, Mirror's Edge Remaster, Untitled Respawn Game, Titanfall 3, Tekken 8, Crysis 4, XCOM 3, Mortal Kombat XII, Helldivers 2.
And still no Bloodborne for the PC crowd. Sony has that under lock deep in the chalice dungeons. Forget the patch, grant us a sequel set in Cainhurst, Loran or a different land entirely.
@naruball I'm talking about the dry-ass holiday season. The showcase overall was strong but no first party titles for the end of the year while Switch has Metroid Dread out in October, Shin Megami Tensei V (not first party but exclusive) and new Pokemon in November, Advance Wars in December. *****, even MS is releasing half of Halo Infinite in December and the new Forza on November. So yes, handing it over.
I have a lot of trust in Sony's teams but I was not expecting the rest of 2021 to be so bare but maybe some us got spoiled by the PS4 gen that seemed to have bangers for every season for a few years. That said the first half of next year is going to be insanely packed.
Basically sums up my feelings about the show. I expected Sony to at least have an ace for this holiday season but apparently they are handing it over to Xbox and Nintendo.
Wasn't a fan of CG-only trailers, ANOTHER Deathloop trailer or the Uncharted ps4 games remaster. I mean I will probably get Deathloop but did it really had to take up space if it releases next week?
I did like what I saw of Forsaken, Project Eve, Gran Turismo 7 (!), God of War: Ragnarok, Ghostwire Tokyo
Just to confirm, Holiday 2021 is going to be dry as hell, right?
NICE! I was just thinking we need more giant robot sims on consoles. I always thought the Mechwarrior franchise was, for some reason, owned by MS. Either way it's great to see a legendary franchise back on a Playastation console.
Toxic fanbase saves the day! Dumb decision from Sony on the first place (they did always say launch titles but oh well) but I hope this doesn´t create a precedent for entitled fans to complain about every little thing they don't like, like Snydercut fans that think they can flame and troll to get what they want. Ugh, man.
Death Stranding was Hideo Kojima trying to make a Hollywood movie and just slapped some subpar mechanics, borrowed MP elements from other games and called it a new game in the "social strand" genre, whatever that is.
Kojima just gives me Peter Molyneux vibes these days.
I get that Kojima is an "auteur" (in his view) but I would love for him to stop baiting players with fake gameplay and playing with expectations and using "HA, ART! as an excuse. I'm so ready for Sony to drop him and throw their budget towards better japanese devs instead.
I forgot about it completely. BG&E 2 will probably suffer the same fate. And that would be for the best as that game has a terrible case of feature-creep and lack of direction.
@Olmaz Butthurt western logic. Truth is China has lifted 100 million people out of poverty and has become the new economic engine for the world. Yes, the system HAS many problems, lots, but you can't tell me the predatory capitalist societies the rest of the world lives in are doing any better. In fact, they are doing worse, the west is broken economically and morally but still feel like they can lecture the rest of the world.
Explain to an afghan how the US is so much better than China. I believe they might differ.
DAMNNN. Chinese sekiroborne is now instantly on the top of my wanted list with Elden Ring. Seriously impressive skills and artistry on display by Game Science.
This generation is looking like graduation for Chinese game devs who are also bringing their own ideas. Still waiting for the english patch to try out Tale of Immortal on Steam.
Classy move, MS. I'm guessing this good will only extends as far as legacy titles but if they get MachineGames to make a new Dark Fantasy Quake I will seriously consider getting an xbox.
@awp69 on GamePass? The platform that is great for publishers and consumers but ***** developers in the butt? Yeah, I'd rather pay to support the devs of the games I like to play.

It was an odd fit from the start.
Re: Chinese Open World RPG Honor of Kings Looks Mind Bogglingly Good
Damn. Chinese RPGs putting everyone to shame, visually, with these upcoming projects.
Re: Team Ninja's New Action Game Is Based on Romance of the Three Kingdoms
Very interesting coupled with the recent news of Bloodborne's SIE producer joining Team Ninja for a new project, probably this one.

Great for PC gamers.
Doesn't bother me in the slightlest tbh but hurry up with that Bloodborne remaster!

Re: GTA Trilogy Could Be Pretty Pricey on PS5, PS4
Rockstar has become a parody of of the parodies they used to make in those PS2 games. Can't make that up.
Re: Bloodborne Producer Masaaki Yamagiwa Teams Up with Team Ninja
@Ultrasmiles I think I'd give them the benefit of the doubt considering Bloodborne's producer is on board and the know-how they carry over from Nioh.

Re: Uncertainty After Panzer Dragoon VR Boss Falsely Declared Dead
Remake Panzer Dragoon Saga as VR. Please?
Re: Sony Allegedly Funding Kojima Productions Silent Hill Game
Honestly I'd prefer the original SILENT HILL team involved in the Sony-funded project.
Hideo Kojima is just going to use half the budget to make more personal Hollywood connections and tour around the world. Again.
I'd rather Sony saved that money and give it to FROM instead to begin development on a Bloodborne sequel asap.

@captainaverage FINALLY SOMEONE SPEAKIN SOME GODDAMN SENSE!
Re: Sony Allegedly Funding Kojima Productions Silent Hill Game
Sony, you had the ORIGINAL Silent Hill devs.
Please STOP giving money to boring auteur Kojima or you´ll get another Monster-branded walking sim for your troubles.
You've been warned.

Going against some rough competition there and can't keep delaying as the first half of 2022 is packed with games.
Re: GTA 5 Is One of the Most Disliked PS5 Trailers Ever
It doesn't even look as good as the PC mods. Rockstar have become the greedy ***** they used to parody during the PS2 era.

@theheadofabroom I think the $10 USD raise is fair when it takes complete advantage of the PS5 and Dualsense features.

Re: Negotiations for Death Stranding Sequel Underway, Reveals Star Reedus
@Col_McCafferty Different doesn't equal good.
Death Stranding was Hideo Kojima trying to make a Hollywood movie and just slapped some subpar mechanics, borrowed MP elements from other games and called it a new game in the "social strand" genre, whatever that is.
Kojima just gives me Peter Molyneux vibes these days.
Re: Negotiations for Death Stranding Sequel Underway, Reveals Star Reedus
But, will he again grace us with the creation of a new genre????
I just hope Sony isn't funding him again. I can think of better japanese devs that can deliver a game twice as good with half the budget and dev time.

Why wait until now to say something?
And then he says "but Insomniac are great" after he calls them liars basically? Nah, ***** this guy.
