Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 346

I'll be continuing through the campaign of Ghost of Tsushima. I have nothing to add that hasn't been said already. It's a beautiful game.
I also started playing Final fantasy 14 online with the free trial. It's a really fun game, and I can see myself putting a lot of time into it if it wasn't for the monthly fees. Maybe some FIFA thrown in there as well, but have a great weekend everyone!

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of the PS5 UI?

jslade

I love it. It looks smooth, responsive, and easy to navigate. My favorite feature is definitely the tips section. I'm someone who is always looking up guides, so this will save me a lot of time. I also love the share screen option. I play a lot of Destiny with friends, and trying to help out one of them by describing what I am doing doesn't always work.

Re: Soapbox: Screw Sony's PS5 Game Pricing, I'll Just Wait for Sales

jslade

Yeah, I totally agree with the article, and most of the comments here. The games I pay full price for are Nintendo first party games, and Naughty Dog games. The Last of Us Part 2 was the last game I paid full price for in a long, long time. So, when it comes to games like those, I'll continue to pay the full price. Everything else I can easily wait for a sale. Games may be rising in price, but at least the new consoles are fairly affordable.

Re: Reaction: PS5 Price Under Scrutiny After Disruptive Xbox Series S Reveal

jslade

The Series S is perfect for me. I am a PlayStation gamer first and foremost, like everyone else I can't get enough of their exclusives, but I also really love Gears of War. Throw in Fable and Avowed, and this is definitely something I will be buying for this price when those games come out. If the PS5 all digital edition is even just a little bit close to the price of this, then I can get both way sooner than I had anticipated. I already have gone all digital, and I only use the disk drive once in a blue moon to watch old Blu Rays. I'll just use my ps4 for that.

Re: Marvel's Avengers Game Guide: Tips, Tricks, and Best Character Builds

@Party_Cannon Yeah, I kinda feel the same. Maybe if the roster wasn't the same that I just watched in the movies for years i'd feel differently. Ms Marvel is really the only exciting thing about it. I would like to play the campaign one day when the game is cheaper. There is a lot of talent involved with that.

Re: Site News: Where's Our Marvel's Avengers PS4 Review?

jslade

It's way too early for this, but I'd love to know how well this game plays solo once the campaign is finished. I'm not really worried about the quality of the campaign. With the incredible cast, and having Shaun Escayg from Naughty Dog leading the way, I have confidence the campaign will be great. Can't wait for the review!

Re: Marvel's Avengers Rubs Salt in the Wound with Spider-Man Sticker on PS4 Box

jslade

I thought the combat in the game was pretty fun, but just something about the game feels off. The designs for some of the characters, Captain America especially, just do not look right to me. The loot system as well is pretty weird, since you can't even see it on your character. Also, the blatant copying of Destiny by even calling your gear exotic made me laugh. Not sure about this one, and having a Spider-Man that will probably be way less fun than Insomniac's doesn't tip the scale either way.

Re: Reaction: The Spotlight Is Now on PS5's Launch Lineup

jslade

Just another reason I'll be getting a PS5, and will see how much I could get for my Xbox One S towards it. The launch lineup isn't the most exciting, but it's enough. I have my eye on whenever Ratchet and Clank releases for when I'll jump in to next gen.

Re: Poll: Has the Marvel's Avengers Beta Convinced You to Buy the Game?

jslade

I really enjoyed my time with the beta. I won't be changing my pre order. I thought the combat was very fun and satisfying, while the characters were all well acted by the amazing cast. Some things about the game felt dated, and could use some post launch updates, but nothing that kept me from wanting to play the full game.
