I cannot do it any justice- you must go play Kingdom Two Crowns on a good screen. It is absolutely gorgeous, and it's a pretty fun game too. Sublime pixel art and wonderful premise
S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 . Timed exclusive that's coming to PS5 6 months after Xbox release still, right? Besides that, I was super surprised and excited for more Life is Strange. Black Ops 6 looks like it will be more Cold War, my favorite COD- so I'm excited for that. And then Astro Bot is just gonna be a great game and it shows.
PlayStation 6. We're halfway through the generation and it obviously isn't going to show up in the next couple years, so I say it'll be part of the PS6 plan.
Cold War is my favorite Call of Duty experience. I've skipped the last couple entries, but the direct today was incredible. They said all the right things and showed some incredible stuff, so sign me the hell up!!
I'm a few missions away from getting every trophy in Fallout 4, and I'm interested in giving 76 a try because the best part of Fallout 4 is the gameplay, so I hope 76 offers even more modern content within these systems. However, this was the most puzzling part of the show to me. Being a ghoul seems extremely straightforward to implement, why do I need to wait until 2025 for this? It's a different skin texture and I suppose different perks/attributes.. how hard is that? I'm disappointed they announced it so far ahead of time if it somehow is going to take so long...
The GOAT. No Return is sooo underrated, I haven't heard a peep about that mode in the mainstream and it is very fun and addicting.
They're gonna release it alongside season 2 of the HBO show, I think.
I'm actually worried right now they're making the game worse. If a lot of those camera angles in the trailer are straight from the game's attempt to add new positions I think they're making it look worse. I replayed Until Dawn recently and it's even better than I recall, but I like the way they frame stuff. This trailer has pretty bad "cinematography" of the scenes in my opinion...
I mean I would say that PlayStation Plus catalog is a big contributor to people buying fewer games outright. There are sooooo many good games to get stuck in. I've played thousands of games and there are still great subscription offerings I haven't gotten to yet. Hell, even EA Play and RockStar plus offer a few really good titles that can eat up hundreds of hours. Games could stop being released for the next five years and I guarantee i wouldn't run out of new things to get to...
My litmus test for this games quality (beyond playing the beta) will be if they work hard on adaptive triggers again. Cold War had unique trigger feedback for every gun, and I believe that was the most quality COD game. If they put effort into such a small detail it shows me the game will be more polished.
Oh my God my hours are so *****. From 70 down to 4 in Death Stranding. Cut in half down to 200 in Dead by Daylight. Elden Ring from 90 to 20. Damn this is annoying
If I was producing any shooter and I wanted to attract players, I would ensure there were a platinum trophy in my game that took maybe 10 hours to get and relied on mainly trying out all the mechanics, characters, weapons, perks to some extent. Basically give you the platinum for experiencing the game. I figure that would attract players and make the game more fun. What do I know?
Honestly, why not all 3? BioShock in the Arctic, Borderlands 4, and Civ 7. They're all in development, right? It's been a while for all those franchises.
It's probably good that we get a Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft showcase- and then just a showcase for newrly everything else in one show. Aside from PC gamer show/devolver
My #1 most wanted game since I discovered I could buy PS2 games on PS4 has been SSX Tricky, one of the most amazing games made. I would cry if they add it with trophy support- it is an all time classic ❣️
So that XDefiant can get more resources?!? Well that's going to be a terrible decision down the road when it bombs! I was looking forward to more Division content...
The end of chapter songs they made in collaboration with artists are spectacular. Follow You Into the Dark is haunting. No One Left to Love is one of the most amazing songs I've ever heard. The vocals are just next level, and she is so passionate. Definitely gonna check out the rest of the soundtrack now, but look into the chapter songs if you haven't
The best game ever made on multiple levels. The PS5 version is amazing, too. No Return is a seriously underrated mode right now. It is incredibly fun, challenging, and addicting. The human AI is the closest I've ever come to playing versus real players on Grounded. I've played hundreds of hours of this game across both generations and and I still see new animations every time I play. I cannot recommend this game enough, I've played THOUSANDS of game and I swear this is the best!
@get2sammyb and there's a rumored remake of Zero Dawn, a multiplayer game, a sequel to forbidden West, and the TV show. If there's a full on LEGO game as well then we're definitely looking at a milking situation. OH!
I know this is an underrated game generally speaking, but it is becoming overrated the more it grows this reputation as a "gem". I like this game, but it is not all that.
My God. I don't want to be that guy, but are we looking at the moment we can say the console wars truly ended? These closures are happening at the same time Xbox is bragging they are selling more units on PS5 as a publisher than Sony this month. Seems like their strategy is shifting faster than their messaging can keep up.
I think he's right when it comes to EAFC's development. I could totally see AI being helpful in translating recordings of players into animations for their in-game characters, even from just a match broadcast. And honestly I would prefer an AI broadcaster at this point than the broadcast they have now, I can barely stand either of the duos and their lines get very repetitive very quickly... it's pretty un-immersive. Each FIFA game has been a step forward, despite what you may have heard from losers addicted to Ultimate Team- especially EAFC 24. I welcome AI in this game's development for sure
I'm interested in this and I signed up, but I don't know which games are "supported". Like it would be kinda interesting if they solicited me to play certain games so they could get gameplay clips and then maybe reward me with PlayStation points or something, anything
You also could mention they've got to deliver two Alan Wake expansions, which the first was slotted for early this year... I hope I don't regret buying the 'season pass' a few days ago on sale. Alan Wake 2 is a masterpiece!
The PS5 as a platform is what makes it a powerhouse and the best generation yet. There are more good games to play on it than any other console in history, and it's an endless amount of quality & fun. I want good first party games, but I do not mind that they're coming slowly. I haven't even had time to get to Final Fantasy Rebirth, 16, Stellar Blade, & Rise of the Ronin, which I've heard amazing things about. Even the PlayStation Plus offerings have been great the past few months and I haven't had time for those either.
