I genuinely love watching competitive Tekken and Street Figther so I'm hyped for Evo. Will definitely watch Strive's matches as well, love my some Guilty Gear.
I do miss Smash at Evo cause competitive Smash is just as entertaining as Tekken and Streets for me.
@Llamageddon Seriously, Steam's Next Fests are utterly fantastic. Being able to demo a whole slew of upcoming games is so good. I've found a lot of games I loved from downloading the demos on a whim.
This legit looks like the kind of game my World History teacher in high school would love.
And he played the hell out of Assassin's Creed and Skyrim.
He was the guy that told us about the video of the guy storing the decapitated heads in their house in a Skyrim video lmao. I had him as a teacher when Skyrim released. Good times.
I commented this on one of the GTA 6 articles, but I have a bad feeling Rockstar will lock certain things behind the paid sub in 6, even for the single-player.
They're going to wring any amount of money from players in any way they can.
I used to be against games that had crazy difficulty cause I didn't like the idea of spending so much time on one boss.
But nowadays, where I'm really starting to embrace games that have more difficulty and require more skill cause besting the challenge is oh so rewarding.
I don't know, I get some people don't like the difficulty, but I feel like From Souls games just have to have that difficulty. Overcoming that difficulty with the bosses is the biggest gratification.
Elden Ring has a lot of the things that can help scale the difficulty a bit, like summons and buffs for example.
I played through a bit of it but it just didn't gel with me and never finished it. I really liked the combat but everything else was just kinda meh to me.
@hides The PCVR vr library is exponentially better then what's limited on console. If I were to buy any headset, it's to use it with Steam. Besides, PC VR has the ability to add VR to games that originally didn't have it via modding.
Sure the PSVR2 had a good first year, but what about the future? The article literally states that the headset is dry in exclusives.
I still have the original Gex games on PS1. I bought them about 10 years ago just to have them in my collection. Sure they're not that great but they have a lot of charm.
Changing Eve's hair style in the menu instead of going to the barber is a nice change, even though I had my favorite hair style picked at the barber and never changed it lol.
I've watched a streamer play the whole game in the seamless co-op mod and it's genuinely impressive as a mod. Really cool to see Miyazaki praise the mod and consider adding something like it in a future game.
I feel like not doing a remaster/remake of Bloodborne is such a massive missed opportunity for Sony. I don't know why they're sitting on their hands with it, it's both PS5 and PC player's number 1 request.
I heard a lot of Midori's "leaks" over the past few months and just assumed they were another leaker. Kinda crazy that a bunch of drama unfolded in a short time span with them.

Re: Elden Ring's Difficulty Destroyed By New Shield Weapons, as Players Call Them 'Absolutely Busted'
I'm actually curious to see how From will nerf this, if they do. Probably shorten the I-frames or increase the stamina usage.
Re: Frank West Voice Actor Won't Be Returning for Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster
I have a lot of nostalgia for the original Dead Rising, so it's a little weird not hearing him as Frank in the remaster.
Re: Tales of Kenzera: ZAU Developer Falls Victim to Layoffs
We're at the halfway point of the year and there's still layoffs in the industry. Such a shame.
Re: Here's Your First Look at Agent Smith Gameplay in MultiVersus on PS5, PS4
His move set looks really fun, just a shame the game is such a grind fest.

I do miss Smash at Evo cause competitive Smash is just as entertaining as Tekken and Streets for me.

Re: Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake Camo and Healing Systems Revealed
Feel a bit of nostalgia looking at the screenshots of the menu. Spent a lot of time playing MGS3 back in the day.
I'm really hoping this remake is good.
Re: Mini Review: #BLUD (PS5) - Amazing Cartoon Aesthetics Elevate a Decent Action Adventure
I watched a video of the game and it has a lot of charm to it, just seems a teensy bit rough in some areas.
I'll pick it up when it's on sale.
Re: FromSoftware Boss Uses Every Elden Ring Advantage: 'I Absolutely Suck at Video Games'
He may not be a type of "god gamer", but his mind is godly with the way he goes about designing his games.
Re: Sunset Overdrive PS5 Port Not Happening, Insomniac's Too 'Busy'
It's been sitting on my Steam list for how long and I never got around to playing it.
Maybe someday.

Re: Elden Ring DLC Made Easier with New PS5, PS4 Calibration Update
I'm surprised to see the devs make this change. I feel they would've stood their ground.
Re: Tomb Raider's Lara Croft Is Popping Up Everywhere on PS5, PS4 Right Now
I like the Dead by Daylight crossover. The game already has so many crossovers, why not add Tomb Raider.
Re: PS5, PS4 Indie Sensation Dave the Diver Takes a Titillating Twist in NIKKE Crossover
I still want to play Dave the Diver, but I'm glad the game is doing well to have crossovers like this.
Re: Legendary Zombie Game Dead Rising Gets a Second Remaster, Out in 2024
I always had a soft spot for the original Dead Rising. There's just something about it that the sequels just couldn't replicate.
I still prefer Frank's original VA, for nostalgia, but I'll definitely get this.
Re: Dr Disrespect Admits Messages to Minor 'Leaned Too Much in the Direction' of Impropriety
"I'm no f***ing predator or pedophile" is exactly what a predator/pedophile would say.
He did it so now suffer the consequences.
Re: GTA 6 Fans Nervous As GTA Online Locks Crucial Quality of Life Feature Behind GTA+ Sub on PS5, PS4
I commented this on one of the GTA 6 articles, but I have a bad feeling Rockstar will lock certain things behind the paid sub in 6, even for the single-player.
They're going to wring any amount of money from players in any way they can.
Re: A Mischievous Boy Has Leaked Footage of Jet Set Radio's Revival for PS5
Looking forward to seeing this in action when it releases.

Re: UK Sales Charts: Still Wakes the Deep and Elden Ring Share a Top 10
Lmao took me a second to realize one of those fire giant guys are edited into the Still Wakes the Deep image.
Kinda crazy to have DLC almost top the sales charts.
Re: You Need to See This Ridiculous Game About a Cat That's Also a Bodybuilder
The game looks like a lot of dumb fun and I'm all for that.

Re: Sly Cooper PS2 Is PS Plus Premium's Biggest Classic Hit So Far
Proof that the IP still holds a soft spot in everyone's hearts.
I loved playing Sly as a kid. I think I replayed Sly 2 at least 2 times a month cause I just loved it so much.
Re: Broken, Battered Elden Ring Players Review Bomb Shadow of the Erdtree for Being Too Hard
I don't know, I get some people don't like the difficulty, but I feel like From Souls games just have to have that difficulty. Overcoming that difficulty with the bosses is the biggest gratification.

Re: Poll: One Year Later, What Are Your Thoughts on Final Fantasy 16?
I played through a bit of it but it just didn't gel with me and never finished it. I really liked the combat but everything else was just kinda meh to me.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 534
Been playing through Paper Mario TTYD Remake. Nice to relive my childhood with the remake.
I do plan on getting Nine Sols during the Steam Summer Sale next week so I'm hoping I can have Paper Mario all wrapped up by then.
Re: Sony Is Allegedly Pulling PSVR2 Funding, Report Claims
@hides The PCVR vr library is exponentially better then what's limited on console. If I were to buy any headset, it's to use it with Steam. Besides, PC VR has the ability to add VR to games that originally didn't have it via modding.
Sure the PSVR2 had a good first year, but what about the future? The article literally states that the headset is dry in exclusives.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree?
I still need to play Elden Ring lol. I've been thinking about starting either Sekiro or Elden Ring for a while now.
Re: Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy Tops 20 Million Sales, Might Be the Best Selling Crash Release Ever
I still hold the N Sane Trilogy close to my heart, same with Nitro-Fueled.
Re: GEX Trilogy Revives a Long Lost 90s Mascot on PS5, PS4
I still have the original Gex games on PS1. I bought them about 10 years ago just to have them in my collection.
Sure they're not that great but they have a lot of charm.
Re: Sony Is Allegedly Pulling PSVR2 Funding, Report Claims
I have an Index and would rather buy a Quest 3 over a PSVR2.
Kind of a shame that the PSVR2 is pretty much dead now cause it has some pretty good specs and gimmicks.
Re: Atari's Sci-Fi Metroidvania Yars Rising Hacks onto PS5, PS4 in September
Looks really cool! It's from Wayforward so it should be good.
Me being nitpicky but I do wish it had either pixel or 2D artwork but I'll take the 3D.
Re: Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Is the Highest-Rated DLC of All Time
The DLC rating higher then Blood and Wine is crazy, that DLC was fantastic.
I'll get Eldy Ring and the DLC sometime in the future.
Re: Random: Fans Continue to Hollow, 737 Days Since Last Silksong News
I'm helping with the waiting by playing a lot of other Metroidvanias out there.
But believe me, I'll be super happy when Silksong finally has a release date.
Re: Dress Eve Up in Two New Outfits with Stellar Blade PS5 Update
Changing Eve's hair style in the menu instead of going to the barber is a nice change, even though I had my favorite hair style picked at the barber and never changed it lol.
Also really like the Destroyed Denim outfit.
Re: Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection Takes PS4 for a Ride This Year

Re: Tango Gameworks Employees Treated to Pizza Party as Studio Officially Closes Doors

Re: Elden Ring Director May Consider 'Beginning to End, Total Co-Op' for Future FromSoftware Games
I've watched a streamer play the whole game in the seamless co-op mod and it's genuinely impressive as a mod.
Really cool to see Miyazaki praise the mod and consider adding something like it in a future game.
Re: Preview: Black Myth: Wukong Could Finally Be the Game Journey to the West Deserves
Wait, this game was initially revealed in 2020?
Boy, that doesn't help with me feeling old lol.
Anyways, I'm super interested in this game. I hope it turns out to be good.
Re: Big Elden Ring Update Adds New Features and Adjusts Balance Ahead of DLC's Release
Every time I see that pic of Malenia, her proportions always looked so weird to me.
Anyways, I'm kinda surprised those features for the inventory weren't implemented sooner.
Re: Astro Bot Has Over 150 PlayStation Character Cameos
Seeing all of the cameos and references in Playroom put a big ol' smile on my face.
Can't wait to see how the devs do the cameos this time around.
Re: Hidetaka Miyazaki 'Knows for a Fact' FromSoftware Devs Want a Bloodborne PC Port
I feel like not doing a remaster/remake of Bloodborne is such a massive missed opportunity for Sony. I don't know why they're sitting on their hands with it, it's both PS5 and PC player's number 1 request.
Re: Cult PS3 Classic Lollipop Chainsaw RePOP Returns on PS5 in September

Re: Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero Reveals What-If Stories, Custom Battle, and Limited Local Multiplayer
I always enjoy custom what-if scenarios in DBZ games. Helps shake up the story that's been told time and time again.
Re: Video Game Leaking Culture Has Hit an Embarrassing New Low
I heard a lot of Midori's "leaks" over the past few months and just assumed they were another leaker. Kinda crazy that a bunch of drama unfolded in a short time span with them.
