Speaking from someone who hasn't played it, Fortnite really is on a whole different level compared to other live service games, it's kind of incredible how they manage to consistently deliver so much fresh unique content. Seeing Quentin at the premiere with Fortnite branding everywhere was weird as hell, the times we live in.
I'm not a PC gamer at all so this might sound ignorant but do people really sit at their desk with a controller to play games? Sounds pretty uncomfortable.
It's worth mentioning there's regions like Australia that don't have Premium, we have Deluxe which doesn't include any game streaming so we won't see these features at all.
God seeing the PlayStation twitter account post the announcement gave me goosebumps, halo on PlayStation. What a time to be alive. Shipping a halo game without multiplayer is a bizarre decision though.
I haven't played since the new MW2 but I checked out when they started adding unicorn weapons and goofy stuff like that. It's fallen off the deep end for a long time.
Feels like a relatively quick turnaround for a show of this budget with lots of VFX shots etc I wonder how many episodes we'll get I really enjoyed season 1.
Slowing the pace down from doom eternal sounds good to me. It just became way too much for me trying to manage all the different systems and remembering the enemy counters and what weapons are most effective against what. Just let me shoot demons!
As an original backer on Kickstarter for this game I just wish they took all these new mechanics and features and started over with a sequel. The original game was pretty disappointing and I don't really have a desire to go back.
Controversial opinion maybe but as someone that works in a creative field this the right way to use AI art. It's purely conceptual and is just selling the look and feel of the game. When it worms it's way into the final product that's when I have issues.
Feels like everything is riding on Shadows. It'll probably do well commercially but I wonder if it'll be enough. I just want to see Sam Fisher make a return, pls Ubisoft
@nessisonett If my livelihood was affected like if my bank or the host of my e-commerce site was down for 24 hours I would expect more of an explanation. Sony could absolutely be more transparent with users but their explanation felt sufficient to me. I mean jeez it's videogames guys, they compensated everyone so lets move on with our lives.
It's kinda amazing how consistently they've been able to screw up Battlefield. I thought 2042 was going to be the comeback but the open beta was just awful. I've lost faith in DICE at this point, they should let Respawn make it.
@Jdubz me too. I really wanted to like the first game and the sequel looks great but all the survival mechanics are just too much for me. Would love an option to turn them off.
@PegasusActual93 last cod I played was the new MW2 I think they would rotate gun game in occasionally. No permanent party mode playlist like the original black ops.
I was surprised when it came out in the bundle last year I just assumed it was reclassified. Didn't play through it much it didn't feel as good as the first one.
Finally we're getting some certified bangers on Premium. Still won't make me upgrade my subscription thanks to the absurd price increase but if it's available for purchase I'll definitely check this out.
Huge props to Polyphony for fixing the tyres issue on licences so quickly. I tried for ages to get gold on A-8, it wasn't until I looked it up online I found the bug made it practically impossible.

Re: PS5 Outsold by an Unexpected Rival in the Run Up to Black Friday
Where are these things available for them to be selling so well? Sounds like my kids would enjoy it but I've literally never heard of it until now.

Milestone are a great racing studio but art direction has never been one of their strengths.

Re: PlayStation Users Miffed with Sony's Lack of PSN Outage Transparency
The entitlement is unreal. Some people need to step away from the screen for a bit.

Re: Old But Not Forgotten, Far Cry New Dawn Gets 60fps Patch on PS5
Say what you want about Ubisoft but they have always been solid on supporting older titles.
Re: Suicide Squad Dev Rocksteady Suffers More Layoffs
I tried suicide squad for the first time last night and god the tutorial section does not entice you to keep playing it's so bland.

Wish they would bring back one in the chamber. That mode was so much fun.
Re: Nuketown Inbound for Black Ops 6 on PS5, PS4

@zhoont but it did change developers though.

@AdamNovice yeah this is the worst past for me. What do you mean potential closure? It's your decision mate.

Yep complete BS. In Australia we have deluxe not premium so no streaming and after the increase Extra will cost more than Deluxe is now.

Just splinter cell, it's the only thing I'm interested in from Ubisoft.
