37 old child here.

RDR2 was fantastic.

I skipped ps3, and now I'd consider trying rdr1.

But in reality, I'll forget about it as soon as I get my hands on new God of War. Or dlc for Elden ring.
Or, maybe I actually play that damn Horizon Forbidden West, as it seemed to be very good gameplay-wise.

Seems like this will flop hillariously.

I hope the sequel got those so much needed improvements.
I really look forward for the review on push square.
When you plan to publish it?

Action rpg, huh?
Any good? [2]

Maybe it is a free upgrade, nobody knows.

@Jayslow in 2024 you'll get full price Director's cut.

Wait for remake in 2027.

Bloodborne please.
The game which convinced me to actually shift from PC to PS4.

Ok, screw Bloodborne. Give me new exclusive game from Fromsoft.

Oh wait. I've already purchased PS5 for the Demon souls remake.. How ironical.

But in that case original was locked to PS3 platform, so it had real value, at least.

@Athrum I'm from Ukraine. I'm currently in Kyiv.
And as far as I know, Great Britain stands with Ukraine.
That is why I say: think twice before giving russians your money.

@Pat_trick, Owlcat games is owned by mail.ru corporation.

It doesn't matter where they are physically located.

@TheCollector316
The point is not about being good or bad, the point is where they pay their taxes.
Payin taxes in ru = supporting the war.

Pathfinder is made by russians.
Think twice before giving them your money.

Stupid idea of the year.
Darwin premium.

How is this even came to mind to somebody?

I'm sure there should be some law this crap contradicts and Sony will get sued HARD for this.
Unfreakingbelieveable.

Well, when I think about those individuals, who successfully pitched this would-become-mess to Sony, I feel like laughing.

I'll buy this dlc...FOR A DOLLAR!

I wonder if there's a chance to republish those TMNT beat-em ups from PS2 (or PS3??) era.
Seems like they were decent.

@PegasusActual93 those were an instant turn off for many players.
I only beat them because at the time I had no other new cartridges in my possession.

But if you beat it, the next level is the one where you drive turtle bus, so it could be worth it))

I beat NES games, 1st and 2nd.
3rd seemed better, but difficulty spike ruined it for me.
This comes from a person who beat Ninja Gaiden 2 and Battletoads on NES, so you could guess how terrible the third game on NES is.

Tournament Fighters on NES was my bread and butter as a fighting game. Actually the only decent one on the platform.

It was absurdly stupid.
But I liked it. Still better than those movies with Mila Jovovich.

Was looking forward to s2.

Now ally hopes had crashed.

FYI guys, economy crisis hasn't even started yet.

War isn't going to slow down, so all Europe is affected.

Comes to PS5 and PS5.

Rivers of blood got nerfed.
Shame, I was just planning to start a bleed build)))

Those videos are mostly for casuls to git gud.

I guess Ukrainian branch was heavily involved in development.
And you all know the situation in Ukraine.

Hopefully, this will get its 10/100 on metacritic.

Now I'll take it. Even for 70.

No reason to replay old versions.

I'd rather wait for official presentation.

If it will be pretty much the same, then.. Man, I don't know. Now I don't feel that I actually need it, to be honest.

But... When you want to scratch that itch of replaying first Tlou, and you know there's slightly better version of it.. You'd probably buy it FOR A DOLLAR! HA HA HA. No seriously, there's severe risk that I'll buy it for a full price and will hate myself for that afterwards.

I believe in Playstation.

I'm not waiting for it, honestly.
This game won't age well mechanically.
Combat was awful even in the day. Leveling up was and still is questionable.
A good story and side quests is what carries the player through the game, however.

Good way to popularise the game.
I imagine it will achieve great tail sales and become new Skyrim, if it hasn't already.

Will pre-order digitally few days before release to pre-load.

@Col_McCafferty I would argue about graphics and sound design, but anyway main parameter here is budget. And it is comparable.

Re combat focus: The Witcher 3. Combat is arguably one of the weakest mechanics. It doesn't sell this game. But plot and side quests do.

What more similarities do you need?

And both combat-focused.

@Col_McCafferty they're both AAA action RPG in open world.

Elden ring. 1st playthrough was quite rough due to russians attacking Kyiv in march. Still got me through that time as the best distraction available. 170 hours for the first playthrough. Started as a strenght build but eventually evolved into strenght/faith hybrid.

After it became calmer in Kyiv, I did another 140 playthrough with focused strenght build and had a blast with it.
Now its time to go back to my 1st character and play 1st tier of NG+. Having fun completing side quests and exploring all the nooks and crannies missed in the first playthrough.
Found out you can actually complete Fia's and Ranni's quests BEFORE reaching Altus plateau, this is quite a discovery.

As with all Fromsoft games, it is hard to put it aside before I have around 1000 hours with it.
Horizon Forbidden West awaits its turn patiently on my digital shelf. Sorry, Guerilla. Wrong timing with the release window)))

@Flaming_Kaiser for me Days Gone is one of the best Sony games.
It has its downsides, but also it has its own identity and spirit.

@Flaming_Kaiser Days Gone had a rough start, but eventually sold around 5 million copies, which is not bad at all. Especially for a new IP.

It is obvious that sequel could be made better and could sold more.

@get2sammyb hard to believe, but I shurely don't mind it being so.

All this live service investing from Sony is set to fail miserably.

If not for the best single player games in the industry I wouldn't bother purchasing PS4 and PS5 in the first place.
And would stick to PC gaming.

But PS4 experience was so good I sold my gaming pc and currently using laptop for my work and PS5 for gaming exclusively.

And now Sony puts 60% of their investments into live service crap.
I feel deep regret with facepalm, similar to when I heard about Fallout 76.
Why even engage your precious resources for this kind of crap?
You can do so much more and better in single player games development...

But no, you cancel Days Gone 2 and instead you waste money on this crap no one bothers playing even for free.

Sounds like some pathetic practice.

@lolwhatno @Northern_munkey thanks guys.
I'm in Kyiv. russians were thrown out from here, now they try to destroy our east regions.

I'm kinda lucky as they were as near as 10 km away from my place.

I try to support my family, friends and our troops.
And also I play Elden ring and a litle bit of Horizon 2.

Games are the best way to get mentally away from all this crap.

Slava Ukrajini!

Don't know the point of all this. Still playing Elden Ring.

Where's GoW 1 and 2?

Dissapointed..

I haven't even claimed this game.

At the least, Curse of dead gods seems like something decent, according to the trailer.

I thought Outriders was a great success.
It's budget wasn't high, but it sold not bad at all. I remember, it was in british top 10 forca few weeks.

After UA army has kicked russians off the Kyiv suburbs, I can finally enjoy my pre-ordered Elden Ring.
Alas, Air raid sirens break the immersion..

I wonder what price tag will be.
It's not a new game and was on some cheap giveaways numerous times on PC (but I don't play on PC anymore).

@Dezzy70 Horizon is for the same players who play Witcher games and Souls games and ubisoft games.
And install base is over 100 million.
There is novreal excuse why Horizon is underperforming.

But anyway, it'll sell. No games of such high caliber is planned within next 6 months or so.
So.. Lots of people will get it.
Including myself. I'm still fully into Elden ring. 120 hours in and haven't finished it yet.
Haven't preordered Horizon, as I fully understood I couldn't invest my time in both games simultaneously.

Read insert coins, thought about coins like digital currency in games.
What a bad joke this could have been))

@Dezzy70 FYI Horizon Forbidden West is also on ps4.
