Re: Video: Why Skyrim Is Still the Ultimate Open World Fantasy RPG, 10 Years Later

@Would_you_kindly

No. mad it's still being remastered. Bethesda got into hot water over the PS3 version of the game, because they knew the game was broken on the PS3 when they released it. It had something to do with a memory leak meaning the bigger you're save file got it would tank the frame rate, the work around was turning off your PS3 to flush the memory. Sony had to step in to get the DLC working on the PS3, it's why the DLC was around 12 months late on the PS3. Good game at the time, one of the broken game's ever.

Re: GTA Trilogy's Rain Is Giving Fans a Headache

banacheck

This isn't anything for the gaming industry, it's more or less the norm it puzzles why people pretend to act shocked by bugs & glitches in a game. Is it right it happens of course not but it's gone on for decades, & I am sure it'll carrying happening wether you buy the game or not. There is zero point in getting over excited about, games like the Mafia 3 are still buggy until this day where you have to use work arounds to earn certain trophies. Being a new release & published by Rockstar the likely hood it'll be fix is pretty high so there is that.

Re: Round Up: Battlefield 2042 Reviews Share Early PC Impressions

banacheck

The game prefromace issues on high end PC's, the new COD I mean Specialists work well for the new game mode but useless for conquest where everyone going solo because there is no need for team work. But if you're a hardcore Battlefield fan Portal is probably where you'll likely be spending your time, maps remade from different Battlefield games with the original class system or play maps other people have made it does look impressive. Skill-up on YouTube put out an impression video, I am definitely wanting until it's been out a bit. Don't like that new class system, there is COD, Overwatch etc why do these games all want to be clones of eachother? The class system team work & it's settings is why Battlefield became popular, crazy.

Re: GTA Trilogy's Inevitable Backlash Is Already Brewing

banacheck

From the gameplay I've seen from people who are playing the game, they look a thousand times better than the PS2 originals on PS4. And what games today don't release without a day one patch? The people playing the game's are lucky that the timer bugged out that gave some people access to the game on PS5, they are playing the unpatched day one version because that's the world we live in. The majority of games have a day one patch, now if it's still bugged after the day one patch blast them.

Re: GTA Trilogy's PS5, PS4 Soundtracks Missing Songs from PS2 Originals

banacheck

I thought this was pretty obvious going off the re-releases which I am currently playing right now, platinum GTA3 & playing Vice City. "The wild dogs cry out in the night. As they grow restless longing for some solitary company. I know I must do what's right. As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti. I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become. It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you." This is what's playing right now excellent songs. Definitely getting the remasters thay will be ten times better quality than the PS2 re-releases, I grew up with these games so they hold a special place. Jean-Michel Jarre Oxygen. Apart from a few songs it's very much what I remember.

Re: Naughty Dog Will Reveal The Last of Us Multiplayer 'When It's Ready'

@Rob_230
Because Miles Morales wasn't developed from the ground u, it used assets from Spiderman, the game was mostly already developed.

This is early in development your probably not going to see anything until the end of 2022 early 2023, and it sounds like it'll be separate from TLOU2. The question is how much will the charge? Or will it be Free 2 Play with microtransactions?

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 391

banacheck

Mafia 3 Definitive Edition really good game, good settings & time era, music, graphics are good. The main character who you play as Lincoln Clay is a good character, but the Mafia 3 isn't like one or two. Mafia 3 is more of a revenge story, but good story with good characters like I said. But it is a bit buggy not dead bad something I can look past, on my 2nd play through for the platinum. Plus the Definitive Edition comes with all the DLC, again good characters and story's which definitely adds more to the main game. All in all I really like the Mafia 3. On my PS4 PRO. Might do some Hades on my PS5 also.

Re: Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut Is Superb, But Sony Shouldn't Be Charging Extra for PS5 Upgrade

banacheck

Note to Sony don't give free DLC like Ghost of Tsushima Legends, put a price on it. As you can see no one is grateful for it in the age of F2P Battle Pass and microtransactions in full priced game's, like the standalone version you should have charged £15.99 for it. That way you get to make money while giving away a "free" upgrade. In this day & age people are simple what can I say?

Re: Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut Is Superb, But Sony Shouldn't Be Charging Extra for PS5 Upgrade

banacheck

"Not when other companies are doing it for free."

A half truth. AC Valhalla, Doom Eternal, immortal fenyx rising etc are free upgrades but your buying the DLC. Ghost of Tsushima Legends was completely free DLC that is still being updated with free content, other games like crash bandicoot 4 it's about time had no DLC but gave a free upgrade. Either way Ghost of Tsushima Legends DLC you can support or you don't, people support full price game's with microtransactions & battle-passes (battle-passes are a F2P model) the fuss over this is a bit odd.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut?

banacheck

@soimun The DLC is £15.99 the DLC + PS5 upgrade is £25.99.

I got the PS5 Upgrade with the DLC I see no problem paying £9 for Ghost of Tsushima Legends DLC which was added to the PS4 version as free DLC, it's since been updated with more content & the standalone version of Ghost of Tsushima Legends will cost £15.99. if Sony was being a t**t they could have easily charged £15.99 for Ghost of Tsushima Legends as DLC for the original PS4 version, but they didn't.

Re: UK Sales Charts: GTA 5 Just Keeps on Selling, Hades Makes Top 10

banacheck

I pre ordered Hades so will definitely platinum it on PS5 & PS4, brilliant game. Definitely prefer owning game's over renting them for a sort period, I haven't played a game on GamePass for months. For me the massive downside to GamePass is seeing game's like Halo infinite being cut-up into its multiplayer going Free 2 Play Microtransactions, campaign coop being a full priced game. Hopefully Gears Of War 6 doesn't go down the same root which it probably will. Microsoft has to make money to fund GamePass some how, as GamePass isn't as profitable as people make out. Which how can it be especially at £7.99 month as Microsoft has to pay for every 3rd party game & Indie to be put on GamePass a massive outlay.

"General Manager of Xbox Games Marketing Aaron Greenberg rather candidly admitted that in the short term Xbox Game Pass is indeed not that profitable for Microsoft."

Re: PS Store Summer Sale Discounts So Many Big PS5, PS4 Games

banacheck

Got Dirt 5 Year One Edition & Hitman 3, so glad I waited to get the PS5 version of a lot of the newer games like these two I just got & Immortal Fenyx Rising, AC Valhalla etc. Cheaper and you get both the PS4 & PS5 versions.

Thinking 🤔 of getting Judgement PS5 version also.

Re: PS Store Summer Sale Brings the Heat on 21st July

Dirt 5 & Resident Evil Village. Season pass for Immortal Fenyx Rising & Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Nioh & Nioh 2 remastered for PS5, Devil May Cry 5 PS5, I own Nioh but haven't played the DLC which I own. Nioh 2 & the season pass I own but haven't played yet, and DMC 5 again haven't played all on the PS4. Hopefully there are some good games on sale.

Re: PS Store Planet of the Discounts Sale Has Almost 500 PS5, PS4 Game Deals

banacheck

Another sale I just picked up Assassin's Creed Valhalla & Immortals Fenyx Rising on Monday from the weekend sale, and a week or two before that I got Crash Bandicoot 4 & Cuphead. Add-on deals also Immortals Fenyx Rising DLC & Persona Strikers 5, Yakuza Like a Dragon Hero Edition PS4 & PS5, I already spotted these that I'll choose which to get on Friday. Void Bastards £12.49 well worth getting if your into Bioshock type of shooters, I definitely recommend it challenging too.

Re: Sony Fans Bicker Over Ghost of Tsushima PS5 Paywall

banacheck

Sony puts out a game with free DLC & zero microtransactions, puts it on next gen with a £7 fee & people lose it. Maybe Sony should be brave and stunning by charging £59 a game with paid DLC and microtransactions and they would make a lot more too.

Re: Sony Under Heavy Fire for Handling of Indies on PS Store

banacheck

"We’re also told that Microsoft runs similar payment schemes for the Xbox store." Kotaku.

Odd a indie Dev would be angry at Sony for their charging, but not at other platforms that charge for the very same thing. Also with the amount of Indie game's these publishers like Sony get on their platforms, why do you expect privilege's over other indie Devs? You obviously know what your agreeing too when putting your game on said platforms, why even put your game on said platform if your not happy about the agreement? And then take it too social media. You see this behaviour a lot on twitter, outrage culture.

Re: Latest PS Store Sale Offers Nearly 600 PS5, PS4 Mid-Year Deals

banacheck

My system is working great. Like many I couldn't buy a PlayStation 5, so I decided to play through my back catalog & buy game's like AC Valhalla, Dirt 5, Immortal Fenyx Rising etc once I got a PS5. Now I've got my PS5 i already own some PS5 game's I've never played, and some PS5 game's are now on sale. In a way getting a PS5 5/6 later has been beneficial, looking forwards to seeing what's on sale.

Re: Reaction: Xbox Game Pass Is the Thorn in PS5's Side

banacheck

I own all the console's the only reason I even got GamePass is for the discount on games, I prefer to own games instead of renting them for a month or two,l. I think Halo is a perfect example of why GamePass in the long run will be a thorn in gamers side. Halo will no long be a package it will be a single player game with its MP being F2P filled with microtransactions, Microsoft is already pretty bad with their microtransactions in their full priced games 1st party games Halo5, Forza 6 which they walked back this you already know what your in for.
