Deadhunter

I just dove into New World Aeternum a couple of days ago, so I'll keep chugging along on that, whilst periodically dipping my toes into Infinity Nikki for more chill time. I'm also considering picking up Alan Wake II and RoboCop: Rogue City (which I'm about halfway through from a previous rental) from the current sale.

@PaperAlien I literally just bought this yesterday. I didn't think there were any more sales dropping. 🙀

@MarkCernysLoveEgg SPOILERS FOR A MOVIE OVER 4 DECADES OLD!...The ending was pretty ambiguous to the point that Childs or MacReady himself could be an imposter. The uncertainty was the point.

@rjejr That's a little disingenuous. I spent a little over 20 hours and didn't actually 100% Astro Bot. I also haven't played any of the newer challenge or update levels.

@nessisonett It's extra wild and disappointing as both True Colors and especially Double Exposure are very diverse and queer-friendly.

@Perturbator This is exactly the reason. If you like the characters it's tough to pass it up for 5 bucks even when it's a kind of boring trainwreck. I almost picked it up for $13 on PS5 but just couldn't pull the trigger.

I ran through a couple of quick matches last night as Squirrel Girl and had fun. I don't know if it's anything I'll stick with long term, but I'll definitely drop in a bit here at the start.

Solid game that got better and more engaging as it went on. As far as the character creation goes, I made one of the best looking avatars I'd ever managed.

I'm hoping this carries the DNA of the earlier Life is Strange entries. As far as Deck Nine taking over that series goes, I really liked True Colors but thought Double Exposure was only okay. And I won't be playing this until both parts are out.

@danzoEX Chained Echoes was totally slept on. It was one of the best traditional RPGs I'd played in a very long time. I played it right around the same time as FFXVI and it blew it away in terms of story, characters and charm.

I have a launch day PS5. If it ever starts to give up the ghost I'll pick up a Pro. Otherwise I see no reason not to just wait for PS6.

Anyone else just getting "content can't be found" when they click on the thumbnail in the store?

I wonder if our DLC (looking at you, Path of the Jedi and Universal Studios Experience) will actually work without constantly breaking now.

I'm a big Lego fan and a mid Horizon fan, and I still have no idea what to think about this game. I'm really curious to see reviews.

@Dudeitsme Tron has always been a Disney property, and you managed to love it anyway.

@1UP-HUSKY That story has been told multiple times now. I'm all for a story about a past incarnation.

I feel like the camera is uncomfortably far away.

I enjoyed the hell out of Outlaws but it definitely could have used a delay to polish up like Shadows is getting. Hopefully this will be the beginning of a positive change.

I'm looking forward to this but keeping my expectations relatively low. It really doesn't look or feel current gen, which is wild.

Spider-Man 2 dlc please.

To be somewhat fair, the difference is seeing the games in motion and not in still screenshots. 60 - 120 fps in fidelity mode is a nice boost. That said, it's still a lot of money.

@caiol92 I believe that's at the heart of why they chose Yasuke. There have been several samurai games, with GoT being fairly recent and a pretty big deal. The experience of a black samurai sets in apart.

I'll pick one up eventually. I need a 120Hz TV before I'm too fussed about it. Maybe after that it'll be a bit cheaper and then I'll sell my launch PS5 to take away a little of the hurt. But we're talking a year or more down the road. This is the early adopter price and they can have it.

Surprisingly solid game. The AI is regularly kicking my ass, especially the Seeker. I've yet to try an online match.

I was, and really enjoying it, until the game decided I couldn't progress any further and broke.

I was really enjoying this for the 7 hours I put into it, and then I ran into a gamebreaking bug whose apparent only fix is to start completely over. I'm not inclined to do so at the moment, so I guess I'll just move on o something else.

Although I've enjoyed every Yakuza/Like a Dragon game I've played, Infinite Wealth is the only one I've completed. I really need to go back and try another run on some of the older games. I just usually hit a point before the end where I'm burned out.

I once emailed Spiders to tell them how much I appreciated the heart and soul they put into their games and got a personal response back from producer and cofounder Jehanne Rousseau that was full of gratitude. Their games aren't AAA and never perfect, but I respect the developers and wish them the best in this.

Absolutely my favorite RPG of all time. I feel like it's one that I'll occasionally go back to for the rest of my life. Truth.

I absolutely love this series and cannot wait. I'm a total unashamed nerd about it, so Day 1.

It really needs a remaster, even something along the lines of the recent Bounty Hunter. The controls are godawful and stopped me from ever finishing this originally. Character models could use a little sprucing up too.

Upgrade path or gtfo.

My big releases for the rest of the year are SW Outlaws, LiS Double Exposure, Astro Bot and Metaphor. I'm also still hholding out hope for Bloodlines 2 and am curious about Funko Fusion.

Gross. I seriously hope to never have to hear about this stain again.

I've never played the original and I'm kind of a nerd about Disney, so I'm in.

Alone in the Dark was a really solid game with a disappointing finale. I wish it had worked out better for them.

I enjoyed the first game even though I know nothing about the anime/manga. I may check this out, though it does really look exactly like the previous entry.

@Mustoe Sure. There's a side character from the original game that has a role, but other than that there are no ties to the previous titles.

@nessisonett To be fair, Max wasn't really a part of Chloe's life when she was killed.

@Mustoe Before the Storm and True Colors (which brought tears to my eyes at the climax, a rarity for a video game) were both excellent. 2 was fine. Not bad at all, but it didn't hit me in the feels the same way as the others, and the episodes dragged a bit.

Why wouldn't you want to show your new game off on the current gen console? I'm sure the only real difference is resolution and maybe frame rate but still, wild.

@nessisonett Exactly. He brought that to his Avengers movies and it never left the MCU, then everything else started copying the style. It's so tired.

@CieloAzure Look at you with your big boy pants on. 🙄

@Stickleman I upgraded my PS Plus Essential version around 6 pm last night. It was a bug in the storefront that wasn't allowing the upgrade at first. If you own it, whether or not you purchased it, you should be able to upgrade at this point.

As soon as Sony lets me upgrade, sure.

Ugh, it's trying to charge me for everything. I have the PS Plus version but purchased the Season Pass separately. Absolute BS.

I thought 2 was great. Legion was an interesting on-paper idea that shouldn't have made it into production as it was. It was okay just sticking to the main mission and doing a quick run-through, but the lack of a solid story or interesting protags, along with the awkward generated dialogue and voices, made it a boring slog for the most part. I like the universe it set up, so I'm a little sad to see it go.

Love the concept, hate the art direction.

I was hoping for 2026. I wouldn't be surprised if there were an Intergrade type DLC for Vincent in the meantime.

I'm hoping this will somehow fix the completely broken DLC we wasted money on recently. Looking at you, Path of the Jedi and Universal Studios.
