Anyone who genuinely has an issue with the sound needs some perspective on life.

Team Ninja knocked it out the park with Nioh 2 DLC, I’m glad they are continuing the trend.
Wu-Long is not as deep as Nioh 2 and the community pretty much agree on this. But it is a very solid game and the emphasis on parrying is extremely fun. I will be supporting all paid DLC that comes out and have been consistently playing it since release. Team Ninja are worth supporting. They don’t always get it 100% right but they treat their customers well and provide excellent DLC with no predatory loot boxes or micro transactions.

People complain about scalpers but then buy stuff from them when they can’t get it through normal channels. Seriously, make a stand by voting with your wallet. It make be annoying but it’s the only way to affect change.

After hearing all the praise The Witcher got, I gave it a try. Didn’t gel with me at all. Combat is super important in action RPGs and I felt like it was very ‘floaty’ and imprecise.
These days I feel like developers like FromSoftware and Team Ninja have implemented combat in such a way that everything seems really crap.

Fighting game character leaks are so stupid. They just end up revealing all the available characters, there is no surprise..

I’d pick this up day one, over the beige garbage that is the latest Assassins Creed or Spider-Man.
Gamers are so basic.

@Netret0120 Which is very annoying because the vast majority of games are built for both, forgoing any meaningful graphical wizardry for new games on PS5. Even some PS5 exclusives like Dead Space look and play like last Gen.

I hope this practice goes away. It wasn’t like this with PS3 into PS4 - just a few cross platform games for the first 6 months or so.
It really hurts the idea of a ‘next gen’ experience.

Those games play like crap on PS4 too. I tried Wo-Long and Resident Evil 4 on PS4 just out of curiosity and it’s not pretty. Frame rates are non existent.

I imagine these figures would have been higher if the damn thing was freely available from the jump. PS5 came out in November 2020 and literally couldn’t buy one until Xmas 2022. I’m in Australia - not sure if that makes a difference.

Who are these random characters?

@BeenGamingSince_83 I remember enjoying the ‘Maximum Carnage’ series of comic books when I was a young one. I enjoyed the giant cast of characters in that series.
With the games, I think I’ve been spoiled by the combat in FROMSOFT and Team Ninja games, so when I see this kind of loose, button mashy combat I’m immediately turned off.

I seem to be one of the few that really didn’t like Spider-Man. The combat reminds me of a hyped up Assassins Creed and that’s definitely not a good thing, to me.

Definitely not into “Games as a service” style titles but something about this looks intriguing!
Also a huge fan of Capcom so that helps.

Lame manufactured drama for pendants who like to argue about anything they come across.

@somnambulance You probably dodged a bullet with Warzone. COD games are so predatory.

Back when I was a child my family only had Macintosh computers in the house due to the software my architect father used for his job being Mac only. Back then the only first person shooter that was available was Marathon. I remember it being clunky as hell and had really obtuse level design. The furthest I could get was about level 4 before I couldn’t work out where to go. The days before sites like GameFaqs too, so getting help was near impossible!!

Marathon seems like a really weird IP to resurrect for modern audiences. It a super obscure title.
Anyone else remember it on ancient Mac computers?

I feel kinda sorry for those who get sucked into these predatory loot box games. They really are awful.

I truly doubt a leaker could reveal anything we don’t already know about GTA games, lol.

Sniper Elite 5 is a fun game. Kept me entertained for about 10 hours. Sometimes knowing how you’ve been spotted is a little sketchy though, and forcing you to play areas where sniping isn’t a viable option is not exactly fun. Makes completing missions without being spotted a bit irritating.

Who are Limited Run games? They seem to be responsible for Tomba, Gex and Clocktower remasters. Are they working on other stuff?

Oh wow I’d totally forgotten about this game. I once won a drawing competition for this game for a long-defunct gaming magazine in my country!

As usual an innocent person becomes collateral damage so a mob pathetic losers can get their jollies by bullying people.

@straw-hat-crew It’s great that you can afford to pay for your games. So can I and I’m living on a pension. I save for weeks or months and then buy a game.
Entitled little babies who say things like “I’ll just wait till it’s in the $10 bin” are the problem. They are so self centred they refuse to ever pay full price and have zero understanding of how much games take to make and why so many studios go under.

Lol. Could you be more cynical and disingenuous?

There’s nothing more fun than unskippable walking sections taking literally hours

@Kelrics90 Why do you care so much about always playing as one character? TV shows do what Naughty Dog did all the damn time. Shouldn’t the game itself as a whole be the most important thing?

I forced myself to play the second game, I’m not usually a fan of games with heavy exposition. It was good, and fairly amazing on a technical level.
I just can’t get excited about this kind of game.
I feel like I’m the only one, sometimes.

What a load of nonsense. Pure greed.

Who plays these games? 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Sonic three had my fav music of all sonic games. Sucks it’s not there..

H. R. Giger and Zdzisław Beksiński are enough to get my undivided attention. Huge fan girl of both those legends. Add in some Cronenberg and I’ll do a joyous backflip haha.

I wouldn’t have thought quoting anyone would cost money.. weird.
Love Stephen King. Amazing writer.

This looks very dull..

Surely since it’s an Activision Blizzard game, you can simply pay to win…

The original Marathon on Mac decades ago was basically unplayable. So basically they are making Destiny Again and calling it something nostalgic. Yay.

Good. I’m so sick of cross-gen releases at this point. It feels like the first 3 years (at least) of PS5 AAA releases deliberately gave us crap visuals and missing features so they could pander to the PS4 user base. Give us proper next gen titles, dammit!!!

Cage is a living legend.

Nah I’m not a fan of point and click games which have no reflexes or skills involved.

Horror games with no combat suck.

Capcom constantly release top tier games.

People get too bogged down with numerical scores for games. I’ve played plenty of 6/10 or 7/10 games which were a lot of fun.
Let’s not forget Assassins Creed games get reasonably high scores and are bloody awful.

I’m surprised anyone played this game. Looks awful.

I’d be happy if we saw no more LOTR games. My former housemate used to put on the directors cut DVDs and make us watch the special features too. Horrendously boring stuff - the films and the behind the scenes… Yick

Pay to win virtual currency nonsense, no thanks.
