Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Doesn't See Sony As Competition Going Forward

Bit of an ego this guy, I'm sure they've seen the same research as has Sony that in terms of growth of the number of people gaming it is slowing and at its current rate will probably come to a stand still in the next decade. The truth is not everyone is into gaming so spending in his words 10's of billions could look like a fools folly in the near future.

Re: EU and US PlayStation Store's Latest Sale Brings Dozens of PS4 Games Under $20

Well took the bait yesterday and got generation zero for 14.99 before it dropped off the Jan sale and I'm glad I did and after a rocky launch earlier in the year it's finally the game it should have been day one. So big thumbs up for that but sadly now have to start putting penny's aside for the ps5 ff7 re3 cyberpunk 2077 dying light 2 vampire the masquerade tlou2 as well. Gonna be an expensive year I think.

Re: Free Guy Stars Ryan Reynolds As a Rogue Video Game NPC

Flop incoming as a maybe comedy short you could make it work as many of the indy guys on YouTube frequently do but as a big budget full length feature this is gonna stink as bad as RIPD. Sad really, the money they spent in this they could have made an epic scale lord of the rings type dragon age/dragons dogma or even a mass effect film like startrek/starwars but for adults but no we get Ryan Reynolds in a live action gta.

Re: Death Stranding User Score Spikes as Metacritic Removes Over 6000 Negative Ratings

If games are art then you can't really score that. The scoring system is stupid and anyone who puts stock in it is stupid. They don't review books films music cars or anything on a scoring system of 1 to 10 so why games. The whole industry needs to grow the f**k up and drop this system. Offering an opinion is fair it's a free country but only an ass would then score their opinion and that's what this is.

Had anyone ever seen the George carlin skit on the ten commandments, watch it he explains why a ranking system of 1 to 10 was made by smart ppl to control stupid ppl. If I award something a 10 and you a 5 why should a third person be passively forced to choose who is right and who is wrong. In this day in age don't let anyone or anything push your buttons if you know what I mean!

Re: Deal: PS4 Curio Death Stranding Drops to Its Lowest Price Yet

darksoul77

Death stranding is a mixture of something like minecraft with the crafting and building it's also story heavy but at its core you've gotta enjoy the gameplay loop as it's very open ended on giving you a lot of freedom to play it how you want. Sometimes it's fun just to raid the mule camps or just hunt bt's if the grind of delivering gets a bit much.

Re: Death Stranding Patch 1.06 Available Now on PS4

@BarefootBowser yeah they really need to dial down the bikes, in fact just take them out of the world make them only available in the garage. As for other structures and lost packages I'm fine with that as it adds to the gameplay but I don't need two bikes side by side on the highway.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 299

@Shigurui yeah I think it's genius how d's does this it gives you just enough help from other players but at the same time your gonna have to do some of the heavy lifting. How it does this not matter were you are in the world is remarkable. I'm currently about 40 % through the story but for some reason I have to 5 star every strand so doing major deliverys.
