Got the remastered original for the PS5 and was surprised how much I disliked it. I love horror in general and had read so much hype about it, and found it a dull slog that I never bothered finishing. Thus, not really too excited about the sequel.
Personally, my favorite racing game for PS has been Horizon Chase Turbo. Reminds me of a game I used to play on C64 called The Great American Cross Country Road Race. Wish someone would bring that one back. That said, this looks solid.
This is a non-article. Christopher McQuarrie, the MI director, publicly admitted that Uncharted was a huge influence on the series and whole scenes were lifted from the games.
First game was pretty bad, with clunky gameplay and awful combat. Not sure why everyone thinks it's one of the best games ever. Great idea, terrible execution. However, this one looks pretty great. Maybe a sale? Really bummed that we still don't have freaking GAME FOLDERS so I can have 2 follow 1 once I purchase it. Come on, Sony!
I would love it if someone made a game like this but it was a total bait n switch, where for the first 30 or 40 minutes one is actually playing a gardening simulator and droning along doing meditative things, with a radio playing softly in the background. But then the radio becomes more insistent and you start to hear things about an 'outbreak' and then these creatures start shambling toward your house and it becomes an FPS/survival horror story.
Incredibly glad I canceled the premium and just went down to the base tier. Most of the games I’d already purchased were available for ‘free’ on premium, which made me feel like I’d wasted hundreds of dollars buying them years ago, plus I hate having time limits on how long I can play games (the expiration date/when they are removed from premium). Don’t want or need that pressure.
I’m wondering how San Diego Studio will handle their version of Blernsball and when it’ll come out, considering what a joke Manfred is turning baseball into.

Re: Secret PS5 Update Makes It Possible to Check for Patches on Games in Your Library

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 488
PGA 2k23. It's nothing special but as golf games go for the PS5, I'll take it. It's sort of mindless and meditative.

@GoodOlDubs They’re waiting for Manfred to make a few new goofy, idiotic rules to dilute the game before they review it.
Re: MLB The Show 23 Guide: Gameplay Tips and Tricks, Diamond Dynasty Walkthrough, and How to Play Baseball
