Out of the list. Deathloop is the only one that I hav’nt played. The art style, gameplay loop doesn’t do anything for me, so that’s a game I won’t be playing. Far cry 6, I felt was a let down. The characters were boring & I wasn’t a fan of the story. Gameplay was fun tho & traversing the game was nice aswell. Back 4 blood did nothing either for me- so I ended up playing more left 4 dead instead. Vanguard campaign was ok, nothing special-looked amazing tho. Fps have been poor for me this year. My biggest letdown was halo infinite-imo terrible game.
@F1at8mot0 the only reason that I completed it was because I brought it. My feelings were the same as yours. After playiing the game flelt flat to me-like the hook wasn’t there to keep me interested in it. Again, gameplay is fun, but just found the game boring. I’m currently replaying odst, which is a amazing. On another note, I’m further into outriders- enjoying it so far. Like a cross between the division & gears of war. Controls could do with being more smoother- but then gears of war had perfect controls.
@Fiendish-Beaver thanks also for your response. Gameplay wise I can see why your experiences are different to mines.when I play games it’s very rare that I play them twice. But as I found the game not very good, normal mode was a chore for me-I can’t see me replaying it again never mind on a harder difficulty. It’s weird as I actually prefer playing 4 & 5 over infinite. But for me anyway-the game as a whole just didn’t click for me.
@Fiendish-Beaver hello, I played on normal. I’m a fan of the previous halo games. Just infinite I felt like it was a chore to play. Again, gameplay was fun-but outside of that the game just felt way too boring for me. Traversing the world was boring & felt pointless-the world felt empty. For me, there was never a need to want to wander the world- just getting to missions as quick as I can. Also them terrible power cell missions were way longer then should be & if they were taken-it would’ve been the shortest halo game. Personally I just found the missions very stale & basic. Variety in missions would have been nice & would have freshened the game up for me. It’s a shame cause I was expecting something great after seeing all the positive reviews. I’ll just stick to playing the master chief collection.
Finally finished halo infinite- which imo is terrible. Couldn’t get into the story, the open world was repetitive & it got to the point where there was nothing really to do outside of the main missions. Boring missions of finding power cells, operate machinery then repeat. No variety in missions. For me I found it very boring & I'm surprised on how highly it got reviewed. If this is what’s the future of halo games-then I’m def out. Infinite just felt like a arena game- constant wave of enemies, similar to doom. But I did enjoy the gameplay side of it-but playing through infinite- dunno. Just felt really bored & I ended up just skipping the story cutscenes, just so that I could complete the game faster. Anyways, currently playing outriders-which ain’t that bad. Also watched the new spidey film which was bloody excellent.
Playing halo infinite-not really enjoying the game-it’s ok so far. It kinda reminds me of doom-where your just moved to places & have a ridiculous amount of enemies constantly turning up. I’ve also had a lot of missions not continuing as I have cleared out areas & more enemies keep turning up-not letting me progress on missions.
Completed vanguard. Enjoyed the campaign-could have def been longer tho. As I also completed far cry 6, will mostly spend time clearing the maps & side quests. I still prefer far cry 5 to far cry 6. The story & characters of 6 was a let down from 5. Fun game to play.
@NateGoesLive no worrys. I’m shocked that it’s priced at £34.99. Ridiculous pricing. It’s only because it has the name cobra Kai. Best to wait, hopefully you can get it on a good price on sale👍🏻
@NateGoesLive it’s not bad, but then it’s not great either😀I would say if your a fan of the show(which I am) you’ll like it, mostly. Character movements are abit stiff, graphics are cool, sound is good, they have a few of the actors doing the voices for their characters in the game. I only got it cause I managed to pick it up from Argos for £10. For that I’m glad that I payed that much for it, anything more I prob wouldn’t. As long as your not expecting it to play like streets of rage 4, it’s ok to play. Also there’s about 28 missions on it. Not sure if I’d be bothered to play it all the way through, but as I’m waiting for the new cod to come out-I don’t want to start playing a long game now. I’m not sure how much it is on the ps store. But if it’s over £15, I’d wait till the price drops mate.
Just completed far cry 6. Even tho I enjoyed it alot- I actually preferred far cry 5. The story for 6 didn’t really have me interested in it. Even tho 5 has a weird story, I actually preferred that. Very fun game to play tho. Will be playing some more cobra Kai, whilst waiting for the new cod game to come out.
Price is steep for what your getting,but it’s a def buy for me. I played gta 3, for some reason I completely skipped vice city & loved San Andreas. So to play this on Ps5 60fps & 4k will be great for me. Quality of life updates are sweet also. I remember not being keen of the controls & certain mission stupidness.
@ApostateMage for me it’s been the opposite, haven't been attacked much apart from a croc. Maybe cause of the randomness of the attacks, perhaps my play through I’m just missing them? Apart from that, really enjoying the game.
Playing Far Cry 6-loving the gameplay so far. Not liking the respawning of enemies. Also the world of Far cry 6 also feels less scary then the previous games. What I mean is that in the previous games, you would have random encounters with animals who attack you etc, On far cry 6, it doesn't happen enough, the world feels empty in comparison to older far cry games. Also had Cobra Kai delivered today. So may try some of that out later.
Preordered the game & cannot wait to play it. A lot of reviews are saying that if you like the previous games, that it’s more or less the same. There’ll be alot of people who want more but for me it’s perfect as is.
Playing the delightfully & charming Concrete Genie. Throughly enjoying this game & it’s also a refreshing game to play. Also completed the excellent Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart, which is also an amazing game. Stunning graphics & fun gameplay. Imo the best ps5 game at the moment.
Season pass is def worth it for me. Great amount of content adding to a huge game. I’ve never been a fan of the og assassins creed games. Origins was the only creed game that clicked with me, which pulled me into the games. Odysseys season pass also adds a huge amount of content.
Supposed to be playing like a dragon, but a buddy of mines wanted to borrow it. So I’m playing some Master Chief collection on the one s & more Valhalla on ps5.
Amazing numbers for Sony’s games. Also getting in the phenomenal Tony Todd as venom is a masterstroke. I’m also intrigued by wolverine, will it be a full out violent wolverine? Or a family friendly one. It also brings back memories of the excellent wolverine origins game on the ps3-loved the healing on that game.
@Mostik I’m currently at the end of Judgement & for me it’s a brilliant game. It’s also my first Yakuza game-I didn’t know what to expect from it & it’s pleasantly surprised me with its charm. Beautiful looking game & a city that feels real. It’s also got excellent characters in it. I hope you enjoy it. Happy gaming everyone!
A really good & enjoyable game. A nice way for people to sample the game. I’m a big fan of the far cry games-always fun to play and playing co op on this was great fun. Really looking forwards to far cry 6.
Playing the brilliant but also bonkers Judgement. Currently investigating the heinous crime of who ate Saori cake. Excellent game & very engrossing for me. The maps not massive compared to other games-but there’s so much to do & it feels like a living city. It’s my first yakuza game-I’m hooked.
Very intrigue by this. For all mention of a app, too me this sounds like a playable demo. So much mystery surrounding it & I'm enjoying it. Nice to see something other then the normal-even tho it has been a bit messy the messaging of everything. Roll on the 29th
@Areus that was also something that I was thinking about. Psp & vita games would bump up the selection & variety on ps now & will be an awesome addition to ps now. Seems like a waste to not be adding them to ps now-kinda makes you wonder why Sony haven’t done this already.
Can confirm that the ray tracing improvements do look so much better. Hopefully this will also be implemented on spider man for ps5. For me the acquisition of insomniac was the best out of all of Sony & Microsoft’s. Def the smartest & I'm really looking towards to what Insomniac brings us next.
This would be great news. If Sony acquire Bluepoint, Sony have an amazing list of classic games that could get the demon souls remake treatment. Also would be interesting to see the kind of games that Bluepoint can make.
