BIG3

I just hope Mirage has a smaller map, luke Syndicate.

@KidBoruto 20hrs for the platinum.

@slampog like Bruce Willis is doing? It's a very interesting debate because BW is all for it to secure his kids, grandchildren etc. Keanue Reeves on the other hand he wants no part of it after his passing. In LR case I wonder if family approval is enough. I know it was enough in the matter of creating holograms of dead artists for concerts.
As for what we know, it will be very nice to see Sylens in the DLC with what is probably one of his final performances regardless of media.

I'm really curious to how they will conclude Sylens. R.I.P. Lance.

Just preordered. Gonna be a fun weekend when it releases.

@REALAIS And there it is. Great!

@Bentleyma It's in the store but it can't be purchased. At least not yet.

Seems it's impossible to buy the game at the moment. If this is a new practice to make a game ps+ exclusive on release then I'm against it. Players should get to choose how they want to spend their money to play a game.

How come the game hasn't got a price tag ye?

@Ken_Kaniff I'm thinking the same thing. Buying this for my gf (and will probably end up playing it too).

Good to see a company recognizing its weakness and fixing it by hiring the right people for the job.

This is not my kind of game at all but I am very very excited based on what I've seen. Might buy it!

As far as trophies goes I only read what Powerpyx has to say about it. I haven't played HL but the trophy list doesn't seem that bad. An rpg you can plat in less than 60 hours sounds fair to me.

Series: Wo Long and Halo
Switch: Nothing
PS5: Nothing (I 100% Control the other day)

Im guessing tv show. Thats his main business now and he is pretty damn good at it too so if this is what it is, Im all for it.

After this SoP my wishlist for 2023 remains the same: Horizon Forbidden West DLC and Stellar Blade.

@Sakisa I'd love a good shadow drop! Ended up playing both the ones you mentioned on Switch and Xbox. Sooo good!

@Sam_ATLUS I'm also looking for some news on Stellar Blade. It's the only game with a release window this year I'm interested in on PS tbh (except for hfw dlc).

@eagletrippin Fleabag is great all the way. enjoy.

Wonder who will be the new Lara Croft.

100 sidequests doesn't sound appealing to me at all. Lot's of content doesn't mean good all the time. I'm very much on the fence with this game, wont buy until released, reviewed, and probably on sale.

I don't see what the big deal is. I remember being excited for Biomutant but when I saw more of it and when it released, I realized I wouldn't enjoy it, so I didn't buy it. Same goes for Forspoken as well. Tried the demo, didn't like it. I don't understand why this game gets so much press. Surely everybody knows late review-codes is a huge red flag. Also, competition is really stiff this quarter with lots of excellent games being released on both PS5 and Switch. Maybe Xbox as well, we will know by tomorrow.

I'm not interested unless they bring on English VO. Reading subtitles gets annoying when a game takes 40+ hours to beat.

Burning Shores and Stellar Blade is all I need.

@Nightcrawler71 This is my guess as well.

Frey's lines comes off as a cheap version of Kaine from Nier. I haven't lost all interest in this game though but I'm not buying this day one, that's for sure.

@Americansamurai1 That seems to be a problem with a lot of games these days. Too much talking.

holy moly. take off my hat to her. damn.

What about Stellar Blade?? That combat looks smoooooooth.

No love for just the fists?? Jk. I like all three weapons. Switching between them and using runes makes for some seriously satisfying health drains on bosses. If I had to choose just one though, spear.

Am I the only one who found GoWR to be a bit boring? There's a lot of really slow climbing and crawling through small spaces in that game. And every puzzle is explained before I even got a chance to look around first. Way worse with the hints that Horizon Forbidden West and I though HFW was doing it too much. Story, script, performance, combat and graphics are all incredible. But traversal and puzzles are too slow and too mediocre. Oh, and the collectibles needed for platinum are ridicilous. I thought that trend ended many years ago.

Spent 32 hours with GoWR (100%), spent 110 hours with HFW (110%). HFW is a game I want to replay. GoWR I might not touch again. So yeah, for me, HFW should be higher, on my list it's #1.

It's a long and impressive list sure. But there's only a handful of games I'm interested in next year.
Horizon Call of the Mountain - 22nd February 2023
Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores - 19th April 2023
Assassin's Creed Mirage - 2023
Pragmata - 2023
Stellar Blade - 2023

Knowing myself I'll probably skip some of those that looks interesting now once they are released if they turn out to be buggy on arrival etc.

@nedbvai On the trailer it said "DS2". I'm pretty sure it's not a Nintendo reference.

@Jey887 It's a simple cash cow. Fans are already there. What I really need to see though is these Hollywood wigs respect the source material.

I'm all for more content building on Death Stranding. Bring it on.

I only played 5 games this year. My most played was HFW, followed by Ghost of Tsushima, Spider-Man MM, God of War Ragnarok and Death Stranding (I keep checking in on BB).
Not that many games I'm looking forward to next year, only Stellar Blade on PS5 if it makes it, and of course the DLC to HFW.

I'm looking forward to this. I always enjoyed the game awards.

Put Elden Ring on sale already. Lol.

If it's a new installment, I hope it's a follow up to Lost Legacy. Drake's story is done the way I see it. If it's remaking again, even the first one, I couldn't care less. I'm done with it.

I don't think this has anything to do with money or different opportunities for Henry. This is his passion project and he disagrees with the writing so he quits instead of being part of something he feels disrespects the source material. He deserves cudos for having principals really.

@Leon_93 That outcome is hilarious!!

@smythelove just dialogue. But. If you romance more than one you get a fun scene at the end of the game.

All jokes aside. She does have a great voice and I believe she will do an excellent job! Wish her the best!

@Would_you_kindly You're wrong. Anything that brings more games to Xbox is in their interest.

@Would_you_kindly No need for name calling. People with money have invested in a PS5's with the "promise" that Sony believes in generations when they obviously believe in what every other company does believe in, making money. People are allowed to feel fooled by Sonys statements regarding the PS5.

@Would_you_kindly Short answer. Yes.

When will Elden Ring go on sale...?

@RobN No. Witcher 3 had a pretty good launch!

What I want from a sequel? A smaller, less cluttered map, better main story, true endgame (not just thrown back to before the last mission), option to play 3rd person and cutscenes like in Witcher 3.
