@MrMagic The article does state that Shadow is an expansion and it was the only thing above Astro at time of writing. I'm just bringing up what the article says for comparison's sake.
I remember watching my friend in high school play the first Warhammer Space Marina game. Looked really cool, I never got to play it personally, but I definitely want to check out this sequel.
Kinda reminds me of an exploit in Rainbow Six Vegas 2 that I remember doing to get XP really fast. If I remember right, it involved the player triggering an infinite respawn with the enemies.
I got these games along with a whole slew of other Lego games from a bundle a few weeks ago, and I never played a Lego game before. I have the first Lego Harry Potter installed on my Steam Deck, just need to get around to giving it a shot.
Nah, I don't see consoles as a whole dying any time soon.
There's a lot of people out there where their only exposure to games is the console they have on their shelf, and if an exclusive game is releasing on PC, it means nothing to them.
I'll try the game if it goes free-to-play just for the hell of it, but I'm not surprised the game has some terrible sale numbers. The gameplay seems fine but the characters all look like Guardian of the Galaxy rejects and the dialogue is that horrible MCU written dialogue.
I genuinely doubt Sony signed a super secret, under the table deal to have it stay off of Xbox. Like the article says, when Sony signs a deal to keep a game console exclusive, they usually detail it in ads etc.
This just sounds like leakers trying to stir up drama.
I'd give it a pretty solid 8.5, or even an 8.7. Chapter 3 has way too many areas where you're running around an empty area for too long since a lot of the areas are too big. It's something that Chapter 3 only suffers from. Chapters 1, 2 and 4 (where I'm at at the time of writing) don't have that problem.
Game looks great, stutters are definitely not great (I have some mods to help with stutters that I haven't tested yet on PC), combat is fun. Bosses are pretty fun too. I'm having a lot of fun so far.
I joked about this on Reddit, since it's via a guy's Patreon.
"Oh shoot, I'm losing Patrons, how I can rope 'em back in"
Draws card from deck
"Looks like Bloodborne is back on the menu boys"
Jokes aside, I just want a PC port, cause then I would love to play through the game. I played the PS4 version via PS5 a few years ago but never kept at it, since this was before Soulsborne games clicked for me.
Hit and miss is what I felt from watching gameplay videos. Some things are cool, other things are kinda eh. Good game to get when it's on sale, I guess.

Re: Don't Worry, You Can Add an Ultra HD Disc Drive to PS5 Pro
I find it ridiculous that the base Pro console doesn't even come with a disc drive and it'll cost an extra $80 for one.
Re: PS5 Pro Announced, Costs $700 and Out in November
Yup I figured it would be priced like that. Now where is the people saying a 4070 was more expensive then this?
Anyways, it's an incredibly steep price point so I'll pass, but the design is really sleek. My launch PS5 still works fine.
Re: Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics (PS4) – Certified Classics in a Nice Package
Definitely going to get this on Steam. I played a lot of MvC2 on the PS3 and I want to play it again.
Re: PS5 Pro Showcase Set for Tomorrow, Hosted by Mark Cerny
I'm so glad my PS5 is still good and I have a beefy PC, cause the price on a Pro is not going to be fun.
Re: Astro Bot PS5 Fans Wonder Where All the Square Enix Characters Are
Square being Square. They go about things in strange ways
Re: Days Gone Director Roasts 'Small Game' Astro Bot PS5 for Deacon St John Cameo
Dude complains too much
Besides, he's not with the dev team anymore so why sit there and complain
Re: Soapbox: Astro's Playroom PS5 Did Live Service and You Didn't Even Notice
I don't know, I just view it as a fun little update to generate hype for a sequel.
Re: PS5, PC Disaster Concord Is Now Officially Offline Indefinitely
Crazy stuff this game went through. Long development time, short lived.
Re: PlayStation Studios Celebrate Astro Bot's PS5 Arrival with Awesome Artwork
The art work is adorable as usual
But those cookies at Insomniac's office look way too delicious
Re: Sony Execs Seem to Think the Company Doesn't Have Enough Original IP
Sony has a lot of IPs, they're just horribly underutilized
Astro Bot just shows how many IPs they have that are dormant for years now
Re: Astro Bot PS5 Is the Best Game of the Year So Far
@MrMagic I totally get ya, so it's no worries
Re: Astro Bot PS5 Is the Best Game of the Year So Far
@MrMagic The article does state that Shadow is an expansion and it was the only thing above Astro at time of writing. I'm just bringing up what the article says for comparison's sake.
Re: Astro Bot PS5 Is the Best Game of the Year So Far
Kinda crazy that it's the second highest rated game of the year behind Shadow of the Erdtreee, but well deserved
Re: Astro Bot (PS5) - One of the Greatest PlayStation Platformers of All Time
I cannot wait to get my hands on this. I was hoping we'd get another Astro Bot game after Playroom, and I'm glad it delivers.
Re: Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 (PS5) - Grimdark Shooter Is an Instant Co-Op Classic
I remember watching my friend in high school play the first Warhammer Space Marina game. Looked really cool, I never got to play it personally, but I definitely want to check out this sequel.
Re: Minecraft's Weird Live Action Movie Is Going to Be Massive, Isn't It?
I could see my friends and I watching it for a good laugh
But it does look pretty terrible
Re: Players Take the Easy Way Out in Pursuit of Concord's Coveted Platinum Trophy
Kinda reminds me of an exploit in Rainbow Six Vegas 2 that I remember doing to get XP really fast. If I remember right, it involved the player triggering an infinite respawn with the enemies.
Good times lol.
Re: Reaction: PlayStation Needs to Take a Long, Hard Look at Itself
The pursuit of live service games should be done and Sony needs to really think about what they want their studios to focus on.
Re: PS5, PC Shooter Concord Dead on Arrival, Is Being Taken Offline This Week as Dev 'Explores Options'
Now that is, as they say, a big oof
And honestly I'm not surprised the game is dead now, it severely under performed.
Re: Just Like Black Myth: Wukong, PS5 Action RPG Enotria Is Delayed Indefinitely on Xbox
Oh man, Astro Bot not on Xbox? I bet it's a conspiracy! I just know it! yells at clouds
Jokes aside, there must be something with the Series S that's causing problems for devs that's leading to these delays.
Re: Test Your PlayStation General Knowledge - Issue 26
6/10 it was a little rough this time.
Re: PS5's Astro Bot Marketing Onslaught Starting in Busy Shopping Mall
Can I put the giant Astro in my house to ward off intruders.
Re: How Long Does It Take to Find a Match in Concord on PS5, PC?
Holy hell, an 8 minute wait time! That's like waiting for a dungeon queue in WoW.
The other two modes aren't too bad but that's kinda crazy.
Re: LEGO Harry Potter Collection Will Be Re-Released for a Third Time on PS5
I got these games along with a whole slew of other Lego games from a bundle a few weeks ago, and I never played a Lego game before. I have the first Lego Harry Potter installed on my Steam Deck, just need to get around to giving it a shot.
Re: Test Your PlayStation General Knowledge - Astro Bot Special
8/10 not bad, I was off on the year and the number of bots.
Re: Failing Manufacturers Are Pushing the Narrative That Consoles Are Dying, Says Ex-Xbox Exec
Nah, I don't see consoles as a whole dying any time soon.
There's a lot of people out there where their only exposure to games is the console they have on their shelf, and if an exclusive game is releasing on PC, it means nothing to them.
Re: Concord PS5, PC Sales Estimates Are Somehow Even Worse Than We Thought
I'll try the game if it goes free-to-play just for the hell of it, but I'm not surprised the game has some terrible sale numbers.
The gameplay seems fine but the characters all look like Guardian of the Galaxy rejects and the dialogue is that horrible MCU written dialogue.
Re: Let the Astro Bot PS5 Launch Trailer Tide You Over Until Release
Really hyped for this. Can't wait for full release.
Re: Sony Accused of Signing Secret PS5 Console Exclusivity Agreement with Black Myth: Wukong
I genuinely doubt Sony signed a super secret, under the table deal to have it stay off of Xbox. Like the article says, when Sony signs a deal to keep a game console exclusive, they usually detail it in ads etc.
This just sounds like leakers trying to stir up drama.
Re: Konami 'Aware' That Metal Gear Solid 4 Is Still Stuck on PS3
Really hoping to see the game re-release, it's such a gem on the PS3. Funny enough, this and LBP 1 were the first games I ever played on the PS3.
Re: Do You Want Astro Bot on PC? Creative Director Wants to Know
I plan on getting it Day 1 on PS5, but I will gladly double dip if it comes to PC as well.
Re: PS1 Hagrid Will Be a Cosmetic in Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions on PS5, PS4
The perfect cosmetic, it makes any games 10x better
Re: Cult Classic Platformer Croc: Legend of the Gobbos Getting the Remaster Treatment
Awesome! I really like Croc, such a classic little platformer. Happy to see it coming back through a remaster.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Black Myth: Wukong?
I'd give it a pretty solid 8.5, or even an 8.7.
Chapter 3 has way too many areas where you're running around an empty area for too long since a lot of the areas are too big. It's something that Chapter 3 only suffers from. Chapters 1, 2 and 4 (where I'm at at the time of writing) don't have that problem.

Re: Forgotten PS Plus Shooter Foamstars Goes Free-to-Play in October
I'm not surprised in all honesty. If I'm being honest, it should've been free-to-play from the get go.
If the game was on PC, and since it's going free-to-play, I wouldn't mind trying it.
Re: Preview: Monster Hunter Wilds on PS5 Feels Like Another Generational Leap Forward for the Iconic Franchise
A friend of mine that's a big Monster Hunter fan got my hyped for this. I played Worlds when it released but not a long time.
Can't wait for this.

Re: Indiana Jones Devs Are Hyped the Game's Coming to PS5
“The more people that can play the game – who can see all the passion and love we have put into this project and all the hard work – the merrier.”
See, this is what I always say when games get ported over to other systems/PC. More people get to play it and it helps the devs with sale numbers.
Re: Mini Review: Crypt Custodian (PS5) - Metroidvania Great Proves Cats Do It Better
I really liked the demo on Steam so I'll gladly get this.
The protagonist is adorable too, with those big ol eyes
Re: Sonic the Hedgehog 3 Movie's Debut Trailer Shows Off Shadow, Voiced by Keanu Reeves
I'm hoping the directors cut down on the regular guy parts, the wedding scene in 2 was so unnecessary in my eyes.
Re: Random: The Inevitable Black Myth: Wukong Goku Mods Have Arrived
I saw the mod on Nexus a few days ago when I was looking through it lol. Perfectly fitting
Re: Round Up: Star Wars Outlaws PS5 Reviews Are Hit and Miss
Hit and miss is what I felt from watching gameplay videos. Some things are cool, other things are kinda eh. Good game to get when it's on sale, I guess.
Re: Preview: PS5's Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater Is a Fiercely Loyal Remake
I'm honestly excited for this remake. MGS3 but with a modern coat of paint and some QoL upgrades are more then welcome.
Re: Crash Bandicoot 5 Reportedly Cut in Favour of More Live Service Games
I still wish CTR Nitro Fueled was ported to PC and even received a PS5 port. Such a massive missed opportunity.
Also I really like the premise of what Toys for Bob were cooking for a potential Crash 5. Shame it was shot down.
Re: Concord (PS5) - Live Service Debut Beats the Hate with Stellar Presentation and Good Gameplay
I always felt like the characters were really eh when I watched some gameplay videos, but the gunplay and overall gameplay loop looked fun.
Re: Black Myth: Wukong (PS5) - A Spectacularly Creative Action Romp
@Flaming_Kaiser I'm only posting that the stutters are still present on PC, so it's not a PS5 exclusive thing.
Re: Atlus Really Doesn't Want You to Know Metaphor: ReFantazio Is Coming to PS5
Well if this affects sale numbers, then Atlus only have themselves to blame.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Concord?
To be honest, I'd rather play Overwatch 2 or Marvel Heroes before Concord, and I played Overwatch back on release in 2016.
Re: Black Myth: Wukong (PS5) - A Spectacularly Creative Action Romp
The game has a few stutters on PC but it's nothing terrible and it runs really well on my 4070 TI Super at Very High settings.
Game is a lot of fun, I'm really enjoying it.
Re: Black Myth: Wukong Has Sold an Astonishing 10 Million Copies in Three Days on PS5, PC
Insane numbers in just a few days, but deserved since the game is a blast
