Re: Poll: How Would You Rate State of Play for September 2025?

The Returnal expansion looms very Returnal, which isn’t a bad thing but hopefully we’ve moved past the rogue lite or whatever that genre is.

Insomniac has my faith, so Wolverine is Day One.

Flight Simulator with PSVR2 support? I wanted this and it’s happening! And VR support is post launch, so it’ll most likely be on sale when I get it.

Those 3 made it a good showcase for me.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy a PS1 at Launch?

I was in college and rented a PlayStation and Saturn from the local Blockbuster. The roofers at my apartment didn’t seal the roof properly and it rained, causing the wet insulation to collapse my ceiling. Being able to see up into the rafters in my living room was pretty creepy, so I wanted to test out horror games.

In one of the most unfair side by sides I went D for Saturn and Resident Evil for PlayStation. I bought a PlayStation the next week.

Re: PS5 Fans Divided Over Helldivers 2 on Xbox Pivot

It’s a live service game that benefits from more users. I have zero problems with it releasing on Xbox. Games like these are meant to be released to mass audiences. Sony tentpoles would be different but not this.

The real question is how well will it sell on Xbox. Take it for what it is but a lot of the reason for the recent layoffs is GamePass is not sustainable in its current state. They need PC and PlayStation to offset the losses and when that turns out to not be enough, layoffs take place. This is the fourth to hit Xbox in the last 18 months, with each being a necessary step to strengthen the brand. At some point it should become apparent that the brand is beyond strengthening.

Re: PlayStation Is Bringing Helldivers 2 to Xbox, Out on 26th August

@Fiendish-Beaver You can solo missions or go with up to 3 others in co-op. To get the best upgrade materials you’ll need to up the difficulty level and want a team. Otherwise you’re capped at the materials and upgrades from farming low level materials. The harder the level, the harder the swarms. Oh, and start with the bugs.
