I just wanna get ahead of it and say I absolutely love part one and part two of the games but I still feel like Ellie was very miscast. I thought season one was pretty good, but I really did not enjoy season two.
Is it me or does it seem like a lot of these sort of spinoff studios consisting of you know groups of people that used to work at “AAA game dev X” rarely seem to put out an actual good game? That being said, this does look cool, but I will absolutely be waiting for reviews before buying.
The handheld stuff (minus my original switch) really just doesn’t do it for me. I want to play my PS5, 6, etc, on a biiiiig tv hahaha Definitely part of the reason I play on console as opposed to PC.
Anytime someone is like "people are being paid to...[protest] / [vote] / [trash entertainment property]" it just screeeeeams of someone being massively out of touch with reality.
I’m so curious to see the reviews for MindsEye. Maaaaybe it’ll be a sleeper hit like Expedition 33? But there’s something about it that tells me it’s gonna tank (unfortunately).
I really really wanted to like the first game. It might sound insane, but the game soundtrack just absolutely put me to sleep. It was such a vibe killer. I genuinely couldn’t continue.
I’m only a few hours in, but oh my God this game is incredible. Absolutely a contender for my game of the year without a doubt. The only thing so far I wish it had was some kind of creature appendix or something like that because all of the creature designs are so sick. I’d love to learn more about them.
Woah! Incredible. I feel like they opted to get ahead of this announcement for the impending GTA6 stuff that will no doubt cast a laaaaaarge shadow on all other games for the remainder of 2025. Can’t wait to play this!!!
Hooooow can companies this big fumble stuff like this?? A games price is not a “secret” or a “reveal”. The price is one of the most important details to your potential customer base. Good god people.
@WolfyTn that’s a really good point about the humor. There were more than a few moments in “odyssey” that cracked me up. Some of the characters were outrageous (in the best way) but I think the tone of “shadows” is just more serious so humor might be tougher to do? Idk I’m no writer haha
I’ll just say it - ranking it below an “8” means you’re…
1) not a fan of the RPG AC formula (which is completely fair!) Or 2) you’re faaaar too invested into the culture wars / faux outrage “woke” and all that static
“Far crying” got me. It sucks because the Far Cry games I think COULD be truly excellent. They look awesome, I think generally the gunplay is great, but the actual story and gameplay portions are just terribly average (or below).
Good news! I wasn’t the biggest fan of #2 for a variety of reasons (still good, just not great), the Miles game is still my favorite of the three though, by far.

Dang! Just bought Diablo 4 (albeit $15 with a free PS5 upgrade) but I am having a complete blast with it. First Diablo game I’ve ever played!

Are the halo campaigns any good? Or do people primarily play Halo for the multiplayer aspect?

Re: Outer Worlds 2 Pre-Order Details Leak Ahead of This Week's Xbox Showcase
I really really wanted to like the first game. It might sound insane, but the game soundtrack just absolutely put me to sleep. It was such a vibe killer. I genuinely couldn’t continue.
Re: Breakout PS5 Hit Expedition 33 Is Getting an Official Art Book This Year
I’m hoping for that soundtrack on glorious vinyl ASAP
Re: Action Shooter MindsEye Continues to Have the Weirdest Gameplay Marketing on PS5
It’s gonna be real, real bad.
Re: Control 2's Budget Won't Be as Big as Alan Wake 2, But Remedy's Confident It'll Be Excellent
All good! It’ll be a day one buy for me regardless.
Re: Expedition 33's Awesome Soundtrack Is Blowing Up, and Fans Think It Holds a Clue About DLC
Honestly I’d rather they not make DLC (or fully outsource it) and go straight into the inevitably massive, tremendous, sequel!
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?
Absolutely outstanding game. And for the price…even better.
Re: Leaked MindsEye PS5 Gameplay Has Fans Giving GTA Veteran's Latest the Side Eye
There’s just no way this will be good.

Pre ordered it but am wrapping up AC Shadows before playing!

Re: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (PS5) - Daring, Quirky RPG Is an Absolute Must-Play
Fantastic! I was so hoping this reviewed well. I’ve officially preordered! Can’t wait to dive in.

Re: Bungie's New PS5 Shooter Marathon Grabs September Release Date
There is no space in the market unfortunately. This is going to tank.

Why are they Skyrim’ing this game?? It’s great, but…come on now!
Re: In Case You Missed It, Hades 2 Is Not Coming to PS5 at Launch
Day one buy on my original Switch for sure!

I just tried to sell all of my gear now that I’ve upgraded to this patch and the game crapped itself hahaha
Re: Bungie's Marathon PS5 Game Taking Over PlayStation Social Media Pages
Oh baby this is going to tank and I already feel bad for the devs.
Re: Tiny New Ghost of Yotei Details Have PS5 Owners Hyped
Is anyone else hoping they’ll delay to 2026 to avoid as many AC Shadows comparisons?

Re: PS5 Exclusive Ghost of Yotei Still on Track for 2025 Release
I very much think they need to move it to 2026 to avoid GTA and the shadow of Shadows.

Re: Rumour: Far Cry Multiplayer Shooter Has Been 'Rebooted' as Ubisoft Turmoil Continues
“Far crying” got me. It sucks because the Far Cry games I think COULD be truly excellent. They look awesome, I think generally the gunplay is great, but the actual story and gameplay portions are just terribly average (or below).
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Gameplay Goes In-Depth on Combat, Stealth, Character Progression
Is anyone else genuinely excited about this game? Even with the bloat, I really have enjoyed this new generation of AC games!

I had to do a double take…Dragon Age really must’ve tanked!
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 3 Speculation Intensifies After Star Offers Brief PS5 Threequel Tease
@DonkeyFantasy my thoughts exactly. It didn’t feel different enough.
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 3 Speculation Intensifies After Star Offers Brief PS5 Threequel Tease
Good news! I wasn’t the biggest fan of #2 for a variety of reasons (still good, just not great), the Miles game is still my favorite of the three though, by far.
Re: PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for February 2025 Announced
Damn! Bought that Star Wars game over the holidays. I thought it was AWESOME though. Miles better than the first.
