@kyleforrester87 to a certain extent yes haha. It's just that age old saying, "If you've got nothing nice to say and arent playing the game, do something better and more productive with your life than condemning and condescending upon a form of media/entertainment thoroughly enjoyed by many", or something like that, i forget how it goes exactly.
Anthem is a great game, highly entertaining combat system especially in higher difficulties with a full squad of friends, the characters and the world itself have plenty of room to grow and evolve over the course of the live content that will be trickling out. I understand the criticisms of this game, but as someone who plays daily, and loves the world, lore, characters, combat, art direction, soundtrack, it'd be nice if people who don't play the game, and haven't played the game, to maybe just shut up if im being quite frank. @ me if you must.
Put the 2nd on ps plus and I would definitely get the 3rd. I still have the 1st on on ps3 from ps plus, never beat it...but I would if i had a clear path to the end of the series.
Its interesting to see so many people saying, "I thought Bungie would learn from the last game but..." The problem there is that i truly believe every single peice of content we have played of Destiny 2, was originally gutted from Destiny 1, so of course they havent learned anything, they are just putting out rehashed old content trying to pass it off as fresh and new.
@get2sammyb i have not been aware of a single bug or glitch on my playthroigh thus far. But if there are bugs that they are aware of, sure, let them do micro hot fixes instead of one big update that could break other parts of the game i.e Destiny. The game is already perfect and polished, but let them keep spit shining it to keep it in glorious shimmering shape.
I could actually see them mirroring the switch release and doing a summer 2020 launch, so as to not have to burden the ps4 to carry the weight of that year going into the holidays. Release it summer 2020, after the final bout of big releases have come out over the 2019 holiday season, and allow some crossover titles through the inital launch summer and see the big big guns come out that holdiay 2020 on ps5. Horizon 2 launch title, rocket league 2 launch title, etc.
So I just got to say I waited to play Darksiders 2 until it was on PS4 and I started it up right after I beat God of War 3 on PS4 and I don't know if it was just because God of War is and has been one of the greatest graphically charged games but as soon as I started playing Darksiders 2 it was a noticeable drop in graphical quality and I know I know it's a PS3 remastered but so is God of War 3 and it looked absolutely stunning but again that's a Sony studio so not saying that the gameplay wasn't good I just really couldn't get into the visuals and couldn't get into the story that much and I love Darksiders 1 I'm really looking forward to the third one so I'll probably go back and play to at some point but as for now just a fair warning anybody out there and again you might like it but I just I couldn't get down with the graphic quality on the PS4 and that sound snobby of me but you know what so be it
Side thought, with the extra money you save from not buying new games as often, but still going into the store to seap out games, one may be tempted to buy some merch, pokemon decks, coffee mugs. This is just brilliant, truly brilliant.
Once an item is pre-owned, it then becomes the property of the store, not the publishers. So GameStop can do whatever it likes with preowned products as it belongs to them at that point, i.e. selling for lower prices(even lower pre-owned prices for pro members). This is an absolutely brilliant sales tactic, and i am fully on board to support this. This harkens back to the days of Blockbuster and the such, rental storefronts. And I for one, miss those experiences very much.
This is not surpising in the least if found true. I was excited for the game, but upon playing the demo i thought to myself..."How much did they spend making this, and is it being rushed to Market?" We will see this as a PS Plus game in about a year.
Very excitednfor this line up, i had played, beaten, and traded in Second Son, so now i have the chance to platinum it. Ive been wanting RIGS for awhile now for my VR headset but wasnt sure if it would be worth a buy, which is funny because about two weeks agoni was telling a friend how they needed to start adding VR games to the PS Plus list every month to add incentive to owning the headset, and then boom! Child of Light i have played, beaten, and absolutely adore that game, im very excited for plenty more people to get to play it!
Holiday sales may see this hit between 35-40 million by the end of February, ive spoken to at least ten people claiming theyre lining up for the $299.99 model. Then if they release PSVR around the time of E3 with some pretty tasty bundles, and save the holiday seaon next year for all the first party games we didnt have this holdiay season. I know theres a couple out in the first few months of next year, but at the Playstation Experience id like them to announce a summer release date on VR and some teasers and trailers for unnanounced games coming next year. This would make the momentum of aales throughout next year a consistent flood, as opposed to spurts and leaks.
Just picked it up today and have been loving the couch co-op, really wish it was extended into online multiplayer as well but the game is just what i expected and delivers that star wars goodness. Want to play a great(non-story driven) Star Wars battle game? This is it.
This is embarrassing to say the least. They had to of known the product they were releasing was not something they were happy with, and was rushed. It seems as if they had hoped any diehard fan of the series would look past all of the bugs, glitches and underwhelming gameplay mechanics. Worst launch since DriveClub(to be fair i know both are completely different games and situations).
@Dodoo Those are all fantastic games in their own respect. Loved each of them. Nothing resonated quite as closely with me as BloodBorne did. From the first trailer, to the title screen on my television, i was majorly hyped for this game, and rightfully so i might add. Still need to plug away at Fallout 4, but BloodBorne owns 2015 for me.
Im happy they are implementing this "Refer-a-Friend" program. Since the game launched however, i have gotten at least 4 or 5 people to buy a ps4 and destiny. Not to say im upset about it, it just seems like it would have made more sense to do this last holdiay season when it was in its first year, it would have been a way to stabilize the drop in numbers caused by lots of people leaving right around the time of Dark Below, heck, even i stopped playing for a few months after that expansion.
@get2sammyb I think you may react as i did. I loved Leons story line and thought,"This is Resident Evil!", but upon playing Chris' story line, you basically lose all hope for the remainder of the game.
This is absolutely my game of the year. Nothing else has compared to the thrilling, horrifying, extremely well paced and plotted experience that BloodBorne brought to the table this year. I truly think its also the best game From Software has ever produced. Cant wait for the dlc, and am looking forward, as always, to reading your review.
Its certainly a stretch, but i would snatch up Bards Tale if they added it. The Katamari titles. Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus. And basically everything anyone else has listed already haha.
I would really love to play Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus. Slightly enhanced visials and trophy support would be excellent additions to an already polished, fun, deep game. So now i think is the time to talk about being able to stream yourself playing Ps2 games, directly from your ps4. I Think the share featute is absolutely going to explode after this holiday season. It has been on the rise since the console launched, but adding classic, nostalgia driven titles to be streamed, along with the holiday blockbusters is going to be a viewers paradise.
@DrJoeystein Seriously, let me know if you guys need any help tracking down stories, writing articles, reviews, puns, mediating, etc. i am on this site ten or more times a day. And have been doing so since the review for Final Fantasy XIII-2.
I think taking a step back for awhile, focusing on PS4 and PSVR, and then reapproaching the handheld market in 3-4 years once it has settled is their best option. Why force another product into the market? Oversaturation drives undergarnishment for profit across the board.
@get2sammyb They are locked for me even with the expansion, pretty sure you have to be level 30 to access them. And all of the vendors in the tower now have gear to get you to lvl 30, regardless of if you have the dlc or not.
Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!! Soooo pumped for this. Resogun is one of my absolute favorite games. And I already 100% the heroes dlc. Time or more!!
@_get2sammyb Crash bandicoot is hard? I guess I never really thought of it that way, it was the first game I owned on Psone and I 100% it multiple times. He is still my all time favorite Playstation Mascot.
I still haven't played 3 or Acsension, I was really looking forward to 3, but there was a long gap between when I beat GOW 2 and actually got a PS3. Kind of just lost interest, which is sad considering my love for all things Greek mythology. So if it is God of War, hopefully it will be a fresh, story fueled escapade that will renew my interest in the series, but i personally would rather see a new IP.
This is exactly why I had expected from this game. Probably not going to get it. I loved sailing around and sinking ships and singing sea shanties, but halfway through blakflag I or bored with the story. Just done with assassins creed me thinks.
I simply cannot wait for this game to come out, I was a huge fan of Demons Souls, and I've played through about half of Dark Souls, but Bloodborne, to me, seems like the pinnacle experience. From the setting, character designs, combat system, and lore, this game is sure to be one of the best next year. Guaranteed.
