Nothing but tainted grail , they've just released a new patch which fixes the screen tearing and reinstates the resolution toggle , its even better now and at a solid 56fps π€£ and ive just found a sketch book that let's me sketch whatever I'm looking at which I'm finding very amusing.
@ShogunRok off topic but where's the tainted grail review, they've just released a patch that gets rid of the screen tearing , its very good , massive and craps all over avowed , its also better than oblivion in my opinion
So expedition 33 sold 3.3 million copies and this is 3.3gb ,and if you add and then multiply those numbers you get 666 eventually , end of days confirmed
@Trauma_Team_Medic I'm struggling to think of a worse game released the same year with the same budget , apparently they made actual costumes for all the motion capture actors , whats the point in that , maybe they should have concentrated on some actual gameplay instead
@MrPeanutbutterz the majority don't simp , but straight men will comment on such things, my mate been in a relationship for decades with his Mrs, very grounded person, played stellar blade for the first time the other day, the first thing that came out of his mouth was , 'arse on that' π
I gave it a 6 and I'm being generous , was gonna knock a point off for those god awful giant robot /dragon levels , played it for a few hours and I think I'm done with it , hasn't even got fancy graphics to drag me back in, those flying levels look crap.
Just finished expedition 33 what a game , started tainted grail not far into it , but I know what I like and like what I bloody well see , another AA banger, kcd2 just had its hot fix so that's sorted now, may join henry on another adventure.
@Toot1st is doom free to play ? , does it contain millions of celebrity endorsements ?, is it multiplayer ? Fortnite is a completely different experience , what a ridiculous comparison, you'll be comparing expedition 33 to musical chairs next
@Toot1st what of good games that don't have such nonsense, which outweigh the successful games that have that crap by many,im talking about traditional console or pc gaming not that glorified mobile rubbish ,if subscription services where more important Microsoft wouldn't be throwing their games at ps, they need those playstation sales, they're quite happy to throw around sales numbers it seems now, when its regarding ps, most wishlisted, top 3 games in the ps charts , ms games best selling on ps , they haven't shut up about it since they launched sea of thieves, sales are important to a company when they are actually making sales , who would have thought.
Yeah i did say in another comment, if you work it out its probably less than 700k sales , which is terrible for a well known AAA game , even though some people on this site, saw that as a success ππ€£π€£
@Fiendish-Beaver even though theres probably well over 35 million game pass users across pc and xbox, so 33 million have chosen not to play doom even though its technically free on the service, with less than 1 million users on ps5 let's say for arguments sake its 750k , thats 1 percent of the total ps user base that bought a high profile multiplatform title , but that's going of 75 million ps5s sold , not taking into account pro users , so its probably less than 1 percent , very poor indeed.
3 million players, 2 million on game pass , so 1 million have bought it across 3 platforms, pretty poor showing from a high profile title in my opinion, i found it boring but I've always found doom monotonous, need a bit more from my games, but hey if its your bag , then I'm happy for you , i will say though that giant robot level was awful π
I remember the games for the commodore amiga , boxes as big as a small child, filled with a manual the size of a novel,stickers, posters, and sometimes even a tshirt , that was just standard , no overpriced collectors edition slapped on it,good times π
@OldGamer999 some people don't have Internet, one of my friends doesn't, I know he's weird , a cash is king type of guy , yeah one of those , he does have a ps5 and he borrows my games mainly , he brought his ps5 mine to download oblivionπ if he went into a store and just bought doom he wouldn't be able to play it, because the games not on there π€ͺ , and to me that's weirder than not having the Internet in the 21st century.
@somnambulance yeah that would be all well and good if it was in the least bit true, what marketing did xbox do for expedition 33 ? apart from slapping it on game pass ,if youre outside of the xbox eco system you wouldn't have a clue what's on there and when, i poo poo on the idea that game pass, has any influence with games selling better on other platforms,I mean ive got it on game pass , but the decision to buy it for my ps5 ,was purely based on reviews and gamers saying how great it was, which i feel is the real reason its sold so well.
@Styledvinny79 They call him styledvinny79, He thought his comments where quite sublime, A witty quip he did tell, Although he struggled how to spell, I thought I'd waste some precious time, With this silly little rhyme, But now I'm bored so enoughs enough, Oh you're not, well that's just tough, So bugger off you silly runt, No more time I'll waste on a nutty cu*t, Your replies they all seem so half cocked, Don't reply, you've just been blocked.
@somnambulance from what I've been reading on social media the praise for expedition 33 is from gamers who actually bought the game pc and ps5 owners , you get the odd one or two who played it to completion on gamepass , the rest seem to be played for a couple of hours and its not for me , which beckons the question , does gamepass devalue games , in a way , yes it does.
Played it for a few hours and its all very meh , nothing new , the giant robot parts you can finish with your eyes shut,if you like this type of stuff that's fine , but I want more from my games , its all very mediocre.
@Styledvinny79 what a fantastic retort ,it was like a riddle me this , looking at your other comments, may I suggest you use all those riches to buy yourself some English lessons.
Going to finish off expedition and start playing kcd2 again been waiting for the new patch and dlc ,will mix that up with the precinct, its really rather excellent, for 24.99 its a bargain, very enjoyable and very moreish
I played this in the middle of playing kcd2 , big mistake, its an empty poorly designed mess, the combat is stiff and unsatisfying,mannequin like npcs , really terrible voice work , the design choice of letting you only destroy certain objects which completely breaks immersion , as does shooting an npc full in the face with a fireball and no reaction whatsoever , its a game from the 90s and it shows , far far superior rpgs to spend your money on , oblivion remastered is better in everyway and that's 20 years old.
Could be a clever marketing trick , I mean people are talking about it, there was another game that did this and it turned out great,at least that's what my memory tells me , I can't remember what it was though π€£
I can imagine in 50 years when he's gone , someone using one of these ideas to make a game and plastering his name all over it , i can just see the trailer , 'from legendary video game creator hideo kojima blah blah blah' the game will turn out to be a turd and his name will be tarnished forever π€£
Well if i can't get a set of figures , this will do, ill have a little soundbox as well if you please , time for a swim swim and flashing through the sky, great character makes me smile everytime he's on screenπ
