Re: Nintendo Is Displaying Hubris Which Would Make Even PS3 Era Sony Blush

You cannot compare the PS3 era disaster to anything else. That price tag was eye-watering back then, let alone now. There is nothing eye-watering about the $450/ £395 the Switch is launching at.

Bowser's comments were far from PS3-level arrogant. You can get a Switch Lite for £200, and often cheaper, so the comment was fair. He certainly didn't tell anyone to get another job or work more hours! But fair play, the article did get lots of engagement.

This might get delayed into 2026 if GTA 6 drops a holiday 2025 launch date. Sony could do a Spider-Man 2 and launch their last big game in Sept (3 Months after DS2), although that's me being hopeful, considering they seem to be "pushing" to finish the game by the end of 2025. If we don't get a launch date in either May or June, then it's sometime in 2026 once GTA 6 gets its date.

I'm about 75hrs in on the 2nd map and about 60% through the main missions. I am enjoying the game and the world a lot although I will admit it is starting to drag a little bit now, with likely another 10-20 hours left to go until I complete the game. I usually like to have my games done after about 80 hours. The only exception to that would be Persona 5 Royal as my fave game of all time.

Re: Rise of the Ronin's PC Port Panned by Media Ahead of Release

It is one the the biggest regrets of a game I brought on PlayStation. The game is too long and bloated with fetch quests and basic mission design. The graphics on PS5 are poor and the only redeeming feature is the combat. This combat in a more open zone/linear world for 20-30 hours would have been more enjoyable. It took me 30 hours to get to the second map.

Re: Preview: Atomfall Proves a Must-Play Mystery on PS5, PS4

One of my most anticipated game of the year so far! Can't wait for this one. I know it's been compared to Fallout a lot but those looking for that exprience may be disappointed. It's a mystery detective game first and foremost with combat as the sideshow. Survival does play a big role too. There is no hand holding so again not like a Bethesda game.

I brought the game but I am currently stuck into KCD2. I think it will be a while before I finish KCD 2 but Avowed should be done in the next few days and then hopefully I can make a start. If not I will backlog it into summer as AC Shadows and Atomfall will consume gaming time in March and Expedition 33 In April. I also need to finish Trails Through Daybreak so I can purchase the sequel.

I do really like RGG but I do have a preference for turn based so this one isn't an instant play even though I know it will be fun. For others who are on the fence, I'd say wait for a summer sale at 40-50% off.

Re: Unknown 9 Labelled a 'Failure' as Dev Cancels Project, Moves to 'Existing Bandai Namco IP'

I brought the game and it was genuinely one of the worst games I have ever played. It's buggy, has early PS4 graphics and the writing is terrible. Even some decent acting couldn't save it. It made the Saints Row reboot (which I also played ) look good.

I like to give games a fair shot and only judge them after playing so if you value your time and money avoid this game and play wide selection of much better Indie or AA games.
