Goddammit! Mine just auto-renewed... the pain...

This is just Kojima things. This will not happen with any of Sony's other IPs.

@Weegee71 True. It was just at first glance over the thumbnail of the article.

Recently there'd been a ton of chatter going on about Bully 2 so I'm on high alert mode.

At first glance I thought I was looking at something from Bully, but even that had more aesthetically-pleasing 3D models.

I don't mind them keep evolving the story they got going in RDO, especially if it gets past the story in RDR1 from a time standpoint just like what happened with GTA Online. I want them to add "horseless carriages" and hot air balloons!

I'm all about that Guilty Gear sauce, but they are releasing too many of these. Can't keep up.

The star of this tech demo is the real-time mirror reflection going on.

Graphically I'm not impressed. At first I told myself, this looks on par with the Quantic Dreams and other very very linear horror games, but then I realized those look as good only because they are in genres that save them a lot of processing power.

The thought everyone should have in their mind is that we may get this level of animation, mesh deformation and topology fidelity in real time in other genres, too. Imagine a sandbox with NPCs looking like this.

@ApostateMage LOL

I'm terribly disappointed. I'm a very fresh fan of the series, just beat 0 and was so eager to get through the series to get to 6, which has all that responsive combat.

Now I find that they plan to do away with it. Nothing I can't get behind, I'm sure it will be fun, at least to a certain extent, but still.

At least the writing will be good. I have no doubts on that front. Regardless, there are still 6 games standing between me and 7, so I better start playing...

@nessisonett I agree with you. It needs to be promoted for what does best. Such good writing. I love everything about the characters and the world just from playing 0. I'm glad I played that one first.

@Number09 Here's hope the two games set in the Edo era will see localization as well. I only now found out about them. I'm especially sad about the two PSP games, which look pretty solid, but were never localized.

@Danloaded I'm new to the series. I only beaten Yakuza 0 a few weeks ago and now I'm grinding the business. Can't wait to see where the story goes from here. Not a great loss, but personally I don't think anything like that has the capability of offending anyone. At least it shouldn't. But you're right. Different times.

@Ralizah I don't mind that. Last thing I want to see is this franchise being trashed by a wave of SJWs. They dodged bullets before they were fired. This could also be the reason why they phrased their statement the way they did.

@Ralizah In an interview they mention that in today's political climate some things don't fit very well. They gave an instance where they had to remove a substory where a man identified as a woman and fell in love with Kiryu, but Kiryu wasn't into him so he had to escape the man.

I find it to be more accessible on mobile than on console. It's a chore playing this on PS4 other than for trophies. Regardless, it's quite a fun game.

Next year they should save all millions of dollars on CG trailers and just show logos. They'd be there for like 3 minutes. Why even rent the stage? They should all stay at home and just tweet their announcements.

@tomassi System could be abused, but I hear ya. They could've made it in such way to only be able to change your username once every 6 months.

It's tricky allowing people to keep changing their names. I'm sure it ties into preventing scams and/or other technical problems in certain games. As you can see this procedure isn't butter smooth.

Paying money for that is an incentive to only change your username if you really really want it badly.

OH! This is acutally exciting. I got the collection a few days ago, because I never played any B game, I'm hyped about the announcement of B3 and also because of these 4K textures.

But up until now I thought these were already there. So you telling me the game will look even better? I could not tell the game was in 1080p. Or was the geometry all fine, except for the textures?

Anyway, I'll jump on the PS4 to get the download running.

@ApostateMage exclusive to Epic Game's store.

I went on an 100% the game. Did the first part of LotHB and one or two Lost Tales of Greece. Will be taking a break until they are done releasing all the free and Season Pass content to have myself another lengthy non-stop go at this game.

@ShogunRok if this does well they might put out sequels where they bring improvements to it, like the Storm games did. But I don't see them being as commited as CC2 was with the Naruto games throughout the years.

I have missed the BETA completely. How was this game like compared to Naruto Storm? What are the general impressions on it? I'd really like to get it, but I wouldn't want to be disappointed. For reference, I played all Storm games as they appeared. I even have them on Switch and I constantly play them. Really love the gameplay in there.

Yes, if player choice is a central part of the game...

BUT in AC Odyssey the choice system was broken. At least in what regards the character. It never had any impact on the character itself, but upon the world. Hence the reason I'm saying that people complaining about the protagonist getting a kid is stupid. Not one choice you take in the game settles a definitive aspect in regards to your character. ALL CHOICES YOU MAKE ONLY IMPACT OTHER CHARACTERS AND THE WORLD!

Supposedly you turned down any sex opportunity in the game, the protagonist always tended to get into flirty conversations with all characters regardless of the gender, which, obviously, defines the character as bisexual. The protagonist DOES NOT have a fixed sexual preference. MOST IMPORTANTLY, people in that era could not care less about that. They only wanted to enjoy themselves.

The protagonist having a kid plays into the canon of the series. Starting with AC Origins they are now adding canon story material in the DLC (which personally, I don't feel too good about that). The protagonist has to have a kid, because it's relevant to the other games, end of the story.

@hotukdeals That's true.

My general complaint with the game was that I tried as hard as I could to make Kassandra have moral values and I always chose to do whatever was right to do at any given moment, but as soon as the game regained control over the cutscenes Kassandra was always obsessed with money, because, you know, she's a f*cking misthios, a wealth obsessed goddamned mercenary.

But I could get past, that and I can get past this, too. So yeah, I kinda don't care. It doesn't worsen my opinion on the game, but if things were done differently and you could see they worked really really hard to take into account every possible outcome it'd have only improved my view on this game.

RDR2 does that in such a great fashion. Most realistic world I've ever played a game in. Every single action counts, be it in Story Missions or Side Missions. Every single moment is perfectly hand crafted. I've almost beaten AC Odyssey and I can safely say that while there were some nice additions to it, there's simply way too much copy paste. Also, why do they insist in every single game to have such deplorable voice actors for their NPCs? They are not even trying. They have to do the worst possible accents.

Looking over the game design choices in this game, I reckon the end of the series is quite near. I can see how in few years they'll murder the franchise by releasing an AC that's actually an online game as a service, with a huge open world and tons of grinding. Odyssey could have just been that for all I care.

@jdv95 SAME! It took me by surprise. I didn't pick the quest from the menu, it just activated and I was like "Sure, let's go there." Then all of a sudden the old man ambushes me and I go "Oh! That's the dude from the trailer! So I'm doing the DLC now."

Really smooth introduction of this content. Usually you have to seek it out yourself.

Regardless, great thing I don't have to wait a lot longer for the 2nd episode.

This story feels very canon and I bet it is. It's really weird you have to get the SP to experience it. Same with AC Origins. The first piece of DLC contained so much canon material, if you're a fan of the series and not get the SP you completely miss it. Wonder if you get the Hidden Blade at the end or something.

Found the PG2 PlayStation branded ones selling for 1300GBP, but the regular version of that is close to 100GBP. Regardless of how far life will take me financial wise, I would never spend a thousand pounds on a pair of shoes. You have to be a moron.

Here's something that's way cooler than that and will probably cost less than that:

@roe This ^^^

There's nothing wrong with having fun games where you can shut your brain off to and just have fun, but I still want developers out there to constantly push the industry in never before seen ways.

Really excited for JC4, but I have to start and get through Spider-Man first.

Wouldn't it be cool if it pulls a Forza Horizon and it's open world this time around?

This news draws my attention. I would like to work with other players towards common goals then to fight them. Now all I need to know is what will be the full roster. I reckon they'll keep adding characters over time, which will have me wait until almost all of them are available.

@DLB3 I believe it's intended. Some interesting things will be revealed in this game. Perhaps he and Marston have this strong connection going on. It may be symbolic of both games.

Too bad I just beat it...

Such a shame. I took a 3 years break after beating the base game. A month ago I started playing the Season Pass and bested it. Wish this update came in time. I deleted the game, but I'll be on the lookout for comparisons.

@get2sammyb I went with the Platinum ones. Couldn't be more happy. The only stupid thing with them in my opinion and it could be the case with the new Gold ones as well - you can only charge them via USB as long as the cable is connected to one of the PS4's ports. There's some trick to fool the headset to charge to the USB ports of a PC - you have to go to Device Manager and simply delete the headset's entry, but I couldn't find it.

Not at all what I expected, but not disappointed other. Looks like tons of fun.

However, I wonder how long before Rockstar copies this game, too, and implements these modes in GTA Online?

Seen it coming, tbh.

Day one.

Dear Lord, for how long I've waited for another MotorSport like experience.

Hope it changes my mind. The game looks really shallow.

@stBoa Same. I don't trust these anymore. The best ones were these: https://goo.gl/JVxEVT Had them for years, but they snap in my luggage a couple years back.

Are there more modern day bits in this one?

@Rudy_Manchego To my shame, despite having an account, I haven't logged in in ages, but I had to so I could congratulate your comment. Made my day!

Need to get rid of the wood now.

Look at it this way, they are releasing only the multiplayer counterpart of the game. This entry lack any form of single player mode. They only release the online section. It's mean to work only with an internet connection.

People are getting frustrated over resons like "My internet connection may fall at times." That's on you lads. Whenever any of the online games I play are unavailable due to a connection issue, with no problem at all, I return to it at a later time. Is this really the only game you have? Who doesn't in this day and age have a stable internet connection? How can you carry on with your activity on console/PC without the proper updates that are mandatory? Enlighten me, people. This is a mindless complaint, at least to me.

I'm not trying to bash on anyone. I just need to converse with people, hear different opinions and understand why is this such a major issue. Are there people still using their consoles on offline? I red through tons of comments and some lads suggested the reason why always online could be so troublesome is that some people run cfw on PS3 and/or PS4 (I don't know if they made any progress with that on PS4, though) and that's why they are unlikely to go online, because they don't want to get banned. I'm sure most of the rage of this individuals come from users of platforms that allow pirated games. This is so deplorable. If you afford a console, if you afford buying this game, trust me, you afford an internet connection, and a bloody decent one at the very least.

I got my Vita day one from Europe, however I've only used on it a US account ever since. Does that make me eligible?
