The COD developers shouldn't have been so sensitive. It's not their fault MW3 released under-baked. It's the trash Activision overlords that are responsible for that. The devs were just complying so that they can keep their jobs. If anything, Christopher Judge took a stab at Activision and not the developers themselves. I laughed so hard 🤣
I knew this was going to be a successful product 🤣 There are a lot more dads/husbands/boyfriends out there that have to share a TV than people realize.. and now they can do that and still game. Or people that just like handhelds. Also, it's just a very well made, quality device. Waiting for this to launch in my country 😬
Excited to see how this turns out. Played all the Commandos games back in the day, played all the Mimimi games and recently played War Mongrels as well, which I thought was brilliant... gave me that Commandos fix. I'll take more RTT games any day.
First they wanted to "outspend Sony" and now we see they wanted to "buy Nintendo" as well? How many more of these sleezy emails are out there that we don't know about?? 🤣
Gave it a 9. Runs beautifully on the PS5. Some environments are just breathtaking. Controls nicely for the frantic nature of the game. Got a lot of Zone of the Enders vibes as well (I don't ever see people referencing this) and my Elden Ring PTSD definitely resurfaced a few times lol..... Unexpected (but unsurprising) difficulty in boss fights made me learn all the game's systems and really experiment with different builds until I got the right one for the fight. Genius game design.
So tragic. Their games were top notch and helped keep the RTT genre alive. Imagine if these guys did a Commandos reboot before closing. Damn that would've been perfect!
You're most likely gonna be able to easily charge this wherever you are using it. It's really starting to look like a more compelling device. Digging the new range of PS products Sony is launching. Word up son 👍🏻
One of the best games of the last generation and yet the only FromSoftware game NOT running 60fps (officially) on PS5. It's one of life's great mysteries..
Yea ok so not too much on first party games but holy hell there were some good announcements. All the MGS3 Remake rumors were true, there's a MGS collection coming! Sword of the Sea looks utterly mind-blowing! Towers of Aghasba looks insane, visually. That Alan Wake 2 gameplay!! And release date!! Same for AC Mirage omg!! Phantom Blade 0 looks really cool and yea, some cool venom Spiderman gameplay. Really not a bad show. Did it for me. The first-party showcase will come.
I've had a concerning lack of sleep since Friday, because time is just a construct when playing TOTK 😅 Completely sucked in and mesmerized by everything going on in that game.. and on such a little system. In a time where some big AAA releases are unfathomably buggy as hell.. we are yet again reminded why Nintendo has the best rated games of all time 👌🏻 I hope FF16 is Sony's TOTK moment 😏
Uncle Phil should just focus on making more Xbox & Xbox 360 games backwards compatible. All of them! 😬 And enhance them. Also allow emulators to be installed in retail mode again and keep them there! 😉 Make the Series X the ultimate backwards compatible emulation machine!!! Let Sony make the great games 🤣
@Konks Yea mate everything I talked about was regarding Playstation. I don't play pc games at all so can't relate to any Steam experiences. Those digital codes I mentioned also apply to brand new games that I can buy at launch, sometimes for as low as 20% of the retail price, legally. Just need to know where to look and how to buy 😉
I have quite a decent physical games collection but starting to lean towards digital purchases way more. Here are some benefits to buying digital that have worked for me:
I have a shared account with my brother who lives in another city. We split the cost of any game we buy.
We can both preload the game and play it when it releases at the same time.
I get reward credits from my bank which I can use to buy topup ps store vouchers. Few shops in my area or online stores accept these credits to buy physical games with.
Digital games more often go on sale and are sometimes cheaper than physical games on launch (Dead Space remake comes to mind).
Some sites legally sell game codes for other regions which are way cheaper. I have multiple foreign accounts.
Digital games do not take up space in your house except for maybe the extra harddrive they are stored on.
They do not degrade and scratch over time. I get that they could "dissapear" one day but hasn't been a problem so far.
Honestly it's become a more convenient and affordable option for me. I still buy physical games now and then but the older I get the more and more I have opted for digital.
@Victor_Meldrew Exactly this. Whatever work you do for a company doesn't belong to you, it belongs to the company. Can't expect lifelong credits and royalty for it lol. That's just how the world works
Absolutely amazing game. Brilliant story, visuals, characters, all those rats! I was so immersed in this incredible world that I very quickly forgot I was playing something at a locked 30fps. An absolute must-play, especially if you enjoyed the original.
Developers CAN make gorgeous games that run at 60fps. We have proof of that (Horizon Forbidden West, The Last of Us, Ratchet and Clank etc). I mean look at the Dead Space Remake gameplay that has dropped, running at 60fps...absolutely eye-popping. It can be done. I feel like 30fps-only will be isolated incidents and not the norm. Just an unfortunate coincidence that two such games released so close to each other.
30fps cap is certainly dissapointing, but this being a slower paced game and looking absolutely stunning, it's playable for me. I've been waiting too long to play this game. But I think it depends on the studio at the end of the day. Forbidden West looked just as good and is a much larger game, with 60fps gameplay. So I wouldn't blame the hardware as much as the developers. We have proof it can be done. Having said that...Asobo has done an incredible job with this game. Looks next gen.
@Would_you_kindly I get what you're saying but, Sony being the big corporation that it is, would never credit someone else for running their legacy games on the PS5. They would make it their own thing.
Sony should just buy out all the good PS1, PS2 and PSP emulators, because there are ones that have been near perfected and work just fine. Should be simple then to give us that enormous library of games. I mean it's comical that I can play all my old PS games on my Series X and not my PS5 🙈
@Shepherd_Tallon Agreed. Defintely a long term investment plan. But Sony would have time to build this up. COD will still be on the platform for a while.
If the deal goes through, and COD does eventually become exclusive, Sony needs to stop whimping out and bring back Killzone in a big way. Bring all the previous games onto the PS5 in a remastered collection and then make Killzone 5. Make it one big amazing, bombastic war game that'll push boundaries on console. Make the multiplayer incredible so that it can actually compete with COD in some capacity.
I get the frustration with the necessity and the price of the remake, but I played Part 1 and Part 2 back to back and damn do these games flow together nicely now. Actually felt like one continuous game. What happened to Joel in Part 2 hit me that much harder as a result 🥺
People forget the history of this studio and how they were shafted by EA. Schofield gave all these people a second chance and the Callisto Protocol is absolutely a passion project and a spiritual successor to the Dead Space games they made when they were Visceral Games. It's them giving EA the finger. I think these devs are all working passionately on this game and want to beat the Dead Space remake release. Can't wait to play Callisto Protocol!!!
Sony owns all rights to the IP (Death Stranding), period. 505 does not own any rights to the IP just because they published it on PC. The IP will always belong to Sony. No one knows what forces are at work here.
It's most likely gonna be the best looking PS5 game so far (I don't always judge a game's graphics by it's compressed Youtube videos) and if they can nail the 3D audio and do some really cool stuff with the Dualsense, like what was done in games like Plague Tale (rat horde vibrations eeeek), I think it could genuinely be a next-gen experience. We've only seen a few minutes of dozens of hours of gameplay. I think this thing is gonna blow people's minds. The price tag is wild though..
