Re: Reaction: What Happens to PlayStation if Microsoft Buys Activision Blizzard?

spoonard

Playstation continues to launch AAA games that sell millions of copies and are awarded multiple GOTY awards. MS continues to squeeze out one or two turds a year while Blizzard/Activision games die on the vine because they are reduced to a third the number of consoles they were being released upon before because as proven, MS can't manage their studios. And Gamepass is further devalued by games like Diablo 4 becoming free to the small number of Xbox players out there. Cutting out the 100 million+ PS gamers is a bad move. But that's all MS is capable of doing.

Re: GTA: The Trilogy - Definitive Edition Finally Announced for PS5, PS4

I have defeated my own personal feeling of nostalgia. No longer do I buy games that I had a fun time with 20 years ago. My gaming tastes have changed over the years. I simple YouTube video is all I need to save myself from buying these games again. Also I won't support Rockstar's continuing habit of vomiting unoriginal content for a quick buck.

Re: With the Steam Deck Announced, This Is What a Next-Gen PSP Could Be

I'm all for a new Sony handheld. But no gimmicky stuff like touchscreens or cameras. Just focus on making it a pure gaming machine. Give it R1/L1 and R2/L2 shoulder buttons along with clickable analog sticks so we can have R3/L3. Give it a quality gamepad and normal PS buttons. And give it the same architecture as the PS4 and PS5. Make it an x86 system with a compatible GPU with the same SDK as the consoles so more developers will have an easier time getting started with it!

Re: Fallout 76 Scraps Battle Royale Mode in September

If they would just limit the number of players a little more and do something to speed up the load times it would be much more playable. But to wait in a lobby for 10 minutes as the players file in and then wait the atrociously long load time to get into the game itself, only to be killed after a minute of play is...bad.

Re: Feature: What Discord Integration Could Mean for PS5, PS4

spoonard

People who think we're gonna get the Discord they see on their PC's are sorely mistaken. We'll get a brutally cut-to-pieces version of Discord with a UI to match the PS4/PS5 UI. We'll be able to create and join Text and voice channels. There will be no video. No one is going to be running Discord servers on their consoles.

Re: PS5 Makes a Mockery of Marvel's Avengers' Long PS4 Load Times

The game is basically Streets of Rage with a little Destiny-style loot mixed in with Marvel characters. I enjoy the game myself. I just REALLY want to put some time into the PS5 version, but some weird quirk of fate keeps me from acquiring a PS5. Oh yeah, that's the insane mobs of people still trying to get a PS5 nearly 6 months out from launch.
