I like that. The game is kind of an indie-movie. It's important that it exists, it makes a lot of people happy. But everybody can be really happy if they are not losing money in the end.
So what this publisher die is a really amazing move and I hope it will be appreciated by the community and press in the long run.
@FinneasGH I actually think the big crash & burn earned the title a lot of sympathy. And if it will return, there will be a (new) community there that want's to support it.
I think they made it for the NES first (there is a working cartridge available I think) and that might explain the mentioned shortcomings.
The HD graphics where marketed only as an extra in the very first announcement video.
(Which also explains the 4:3)
Wow 7,5k for THAT song (and without release/time constraint) would be generous and involved a lot of good will from the band to support an indie movie/game.
But GTA 6 … as much as I like to have the song there. I side with the band. That is an insult.
I actually can't wait till I got the time to play this. Was looking forward to it for a long time.
I just wish these kind of games had licensed music like they used to in the PS1/PS2 era.
Now it's just royalty free stuff. And it takes away from these type of games.
That all looks awesome. Especially the graphic design elements.
But only having a flat concrete floor as the locations is a bit of a turnoff. Even though you probably don't realize it when actually playing yourself. Because too busy with the gameplay.

They talk candid about it and change stuff. Both are good things.

The described opening screen is exactly (!) what I love about the PS1/PS2 attitude. I miss this stuff SO MUCH!

Re: Fresh Marathon Details Cover Heroes, Pricing, and Bungie's Silence
I hate the trend of stuff getting criticisms by not releasing asap.
We all know what happens if stuff get released too soon.
Same with the Stardew Valley guy. Just let people work on their stuff without adding even more pressure.
Re: Mini Review: Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP (PS5) - A Sweet Return with a Bittersweet Bite
The soundtrack thing is just too much of an issue imo
It would be way worse to have a Tony Hawk game without the music. But LC also did rely a lot on the vibe the music brings.
Re: Horizon Zero Dawn's PS5, PC Remaster Is Very Much the Real Deal
I will play it because I never (really) spend time withe the original.
But having a full price remaster on a (still) new game is ridiculous imo.
Re: PS5, PS4's Long Awaited Skate Reboot Will Launch in Early Access Next Year
@nessisonett everything you just wrote gave me an existential crisis
Re: PS5, PS4's Long Awaited Skate Reboot Will Launch in Early Access Next Year
@McTwist now that you mention it … yeah! Where is the grit?
Thankfully for everything that puts pressure on Activision to get THPS 3+4 rolling though.
Re: UFO 50 Not Launching on PS5 This Week Is Bumming Us Out
Oh how cool is that.
Re: Suda 51 Says 'Everyone Cares Too Much About Metacritic Scores'
Same with movies. Harmony Korine movies are always around a 5 on IMDB.
It's a badge of honor. But sadly only for the people who already know what they are looking at.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for September 2024?
The PS2 selection is immaculate.

No. Thanks anyway.

Re: Classic JRPG-Inspired 8-Bit Adventures 2 Finally Levels Up on PS5, PS4 in October
Oh damn that looks nice. Is the first one also on the store? (I can't find it through the app)
Re: Feature: Everything You Can Do in PS5's New Welcome Hub
Too much stuff for my taste. Is there a way to disable it?
(Not a real issue though)

@Petto because he didn't direct it? Do you want "comment written by Petto" on a comment that you did not write yourself?

Re: PS Plus Essential Receives 3 New PS5, PS4 Games, All Available Now
@KyushuTrail honestly it's even a 2/10 or less. The plat is super easy and comes 95% by playing naturally. But you do need to know how baseball works.
Re: PS Plus Essential Receives 3 New PS5, PS4 Games, Two Available Now
I got the MLB platinum a few days ago. If anybody need help just hmu

Re: Stardew Valley Creator Hasn't Worked on Haunted Chocolatier 'in a Long Time'
@riceNpea I dunno. I wanted to quote Lord of the Rings and edited it three times and everything sounded wrong at some point.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 544
Monster Jam Showdown
It's … okay
Re: PS4 Players Won't Have to Wait Long for Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP
Should be mentioned that a lot of the licensed music is gone.
Re: Rumour: PS5 Pro Design Seemingly Leaked
There goes my last hope for eventually having a decent looking PS5 version
They somehow managed to make it look even worse.
Re: Promising Persona-Inspired RPG Demonschool Hit with Hefty Delay
Looks amazing though. And I a glad they delay instead of patch it later.
Re: Fill the Advance Wars-Shaped Hole in Your Heart with Warside on PS5, PS4
That is a bit too close to the original.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for September 2024 Announced
MLB is top shelf. I already have the platinum, but I am happy for everyone that is interested in the game but did not pull the trigger so far.
Re: Capcom Fighting Collection 2 Is the PS4 Compilation of Your Dreams
Fighting Evolution is widely considered the worst fighter Capcom ever put out. So it is tainting this collection in my opinion.
Getting CvS2 is amazing though.
Re: Capcom Fighting Collection 2 Is the PS4 Compilation of Your Dreams
@get2sammyb that would be … wow
Re: Incoming! Worms Armageddon: Anniversary Edition Rated for PS5, PS4
It's weird having the PS1 version released on PSN not that long ago.
BUT Armageddon is peak Worms and I would totally love to have a remaster.
And it they add online … that would be dope.
Re: Retro Homage Power Rangers: Rita's Rewind Will Make a Late Play for Game of the Year
That makes perfect sense
Re: Mini Review: Monster Jam Showdown (PS5) - Familiar, Enjoyable Monster Truck Madness
I actually can't wait till I got the time to play this. Was looking forward to it for a long time.
I just wish these kind of games had licensed music like they used to in the PS1/PS2 era.
Now it's just royalty free stuff. And it takes away from these type of games.
Re: Manic Twin-Stick Shooter Kill Knight Reveals PS5, PS4 Release Date in Frankly Stressful Trailer
That all looks awesome. Especially the graphic design elements.
But only having a flat concrete floor as the locations is a bit of a turnoff. Even though you probably don't realize it when actually playing yourself. Because too busy with the gameplay.
Re: Crash Bandicoot 5 Reportedly Cut in Favour of More Live Service Games
I will never forgive them for not doing THPS 3+4
Re: Bidding Begins with Dark Auction: Hitler's Estate on PS5
Yeah I don't know man. I am German, and if we learned one thing in school it's that this subject is not a good vibe.
Re: Faaast Penguin Is Chaotic PS5 Multiplayer Fun from Japan
God damn that looks like a guilty pleasure
Re: Sony Highlights Unbeatable's Rockin' PS5 Rhythm Adventure Gameplay
As somebody that holds the original FLCL with high regard, I can see what they did there.

@ShogunRok you may say I'm a dreamer … but I am not the only one
Re: Poll: What PS5 Games Do You Most Want to See at Gamescom 2024?
Ride Racer 8
Would also take a bit more footage of the new Jet Set Radio and Golden Axe
Re: Death Stranding 2 Seems Like a Lock for Gamescom Opening Night Live
@Throb both would fit the DS vibe
