“remake-cum-remaster”
heh

I know silent hill is cool and all but I cannot imagine a worse combination than Modern Konami + Bloober Team

Say what you want about how you value the game, but it’s been so refreshing that most of the gameplay trailers for this are so intertwined with developer commentary. I’ll always appreciate even little things that get us closer to the development perspective.

@Milt are we comparing the $60 game in one of the most influential gaming franchises ever with AAA type design to angry birds reloaded

Find you a girl that loves you as much as PushSquare loves the phrase Japanese giant

Let it be known that Vampire Survivors, an indie game that had no marketing at all that launched only a month later, has double more steam players than Battlefield 2024. This game was such a colossal failure of the Triple AAA gaming landscape, to the point where I genuinely supported policy that would’ve made releases like these way more regulated in terms of polish. EA’s a failure

Shoutouts to Warner Bros for how they shut down multiple pitches for rereleases and remasters of the original arcade Mortal Kombat titles, yet when it’s actually appropriate for them to release it they rerelease the game that’s been rereleased 3 times now and a 4/10 movie.

Bro this is weird. I’m not one of those who’s ultra mad at Sony for not making Days Gone 2, but why would they expand this IP into film if they don’t have any more plans with it? Wild

I can’t overstate how excited I am for this. Kena was easily my 2nd favorite game of 2021 and my favorite singleplayer game of that year. Beyond that, this looks like one of the most hefty free post launch updates I’ve seen in a while. New Game +, Kena Cosmetics, new skills, a new equipment system that doesn’t seem overbearing like certain games yet still seems like it could make a difference, and brand new trials. This is like, something Nintendo would sell for a $60 port.

If you haven’t already please try this out. I can’t be more thankful that it’s coming to Steam so PC players adverse to the EGS will now have it on their radar. Hopefully it’ll come to PS+ in the future.

Bayonetta being the example of perfect game feel and game control is wild to me

I really hope this is in Spider-Man 2, and I actually don’t think it’s impossible. It would be a major point of distinction between 1 and 2, the trailer heavily emphasizes the multiple Spider-Men, and it’s exclusively on PS5 so any hardware limitations could be potentially sidestepped.

@nomither6 50/50s are situations where you essentially need to guess between two evenly possible situations. For instance, let’s say a character does a low kick and can either cancel it into a follow up attack or a follow up command grab. You either could block the follow up or attack/jump the command grab, but you have to guess.

Also yeah imo MK looks garbage. The visual clarity is such a mess, and yeah compared to even “realistic” looking games like Tekken 7 and Street Fighter 6 are way more stylized. Not to mention the really bad animations.

This is giving me so much hope for this project. It was already a good sign when they got an actually good Director compared to Uncharted, but the fact that he wants to make a samurai movie and not simply an action movie is so exciting.

This is the work of Kratos or something it’s wild how almost everything is getting delayed except GoW seemingly this year

@DrClayman I honestly don’t believe that window like people are saying. Mainly because Resident Evil 4 comes out in that same time period. I don’t think Capcom wants to cannibalize sales. I’m personally thinking either May or June, sometime before Evo definitely.

It’s likely gonna be a new character + a veteran, like what happened at EVO. I would really like it if we got a launch window soon tho.

@ROBLIVION this post is even worse than the script

This is gonna be an exhausting time closing this deal. It’s just gonna be Sony weirdly hyping up Actiblizz games while Microsoft downplays it. With regards to this accusation, idk it seems possible but it feels weird to throw this out there without any examples, either from MSoft themselves or even stuff like the Capcom and Bandai internal leaks (to my knowledge). Again, wouldn’t be surprised if they did it, it just feels weird to point this out when both developers have paid for exclusivity deals and Xbox has done some uniquely weird stuff themselves like preventing Atlus from announcing the Persona ports to PlayStation consoles at the same time.

Iron Galaxy went from working on one of the best fighters of the 2010s and one of the best Xbox one games to making Fortnite attempt 84

What happened

@Deljo god I just want to go one day without people bringing up the last of us remake is that too much to ask

This is like peak over ambitious AAA gaming
-Revealed at the Game Awards
-Free to play shooter
-Live Service
-Went dark immediately after it’s reveal
-Delayed a year
Comical at this point

Atlus, your days are over. A new king of nothing teasers has arrived.

I’m waiting for Crossplay before I start taking this game seriously again, but NASB is so fun. It’s the platform fighter kusoge and it couldn’t be more wild. Easily more fun and enjoyable than Multiversus

Ain’t no way y’all highlighted Two Point Campus over Valkyrie Elysium or Soul Hackers 2

It’s good that theyre have a go to place for new reveals and content for anyone who just wants the news. I’m assuming reveals are still happening after grand finals for each respective game though, right?

@Uncharted2007 bro street fighter 6 is seeming like the biggest shakeup the series has ever gotten in terms of aesthetic, single player offering, and the raw gameplay with its heavy resource emphasis

I was always decently skeptical of this game. This studio hasn’t done much beyond ports of PS2/360 era games, like the original KOTOR on Switch. A seemingly unknown studio promising AAA level scope without proving themselves first is always cause for concern.

Anyone can argue that Insomniac wouldn’t be a good fit for a specific superhero game, and that’s fine there’s countless of other devs like Rocksteady and Eidos who have proven themselves good to handle the formula, and it’s good if one developer doesn’t have a monopoly on Superhero or Marvel games.

But for gods sake why EA

We need her at The Game Awards

Those audio description captions or whatever they’re called that they showed off in the gameplay video was extremely impressive. One of the best parts about the intermingling of Sony studios is that since Last of Us 2, almost all of their games have had top notch accessibility. This is going above and beyond even what god of war ragnarok showed. Really impressed.

what the actual

While the rest of the comments talk about Persona 5 Royal, lemme just say that this looks nothing like Vertigo and idk why it even has the Hitchcock name attached

I genuinely don’t know why they did this.

I’m not complaining at all this is a really cool move.

But who at Suckerpunch just woke up this morning and said “yeah this should be free”

Where is the “allergic to cats” poll option

This is injustice

Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t the first game only have 3 realms with extended gameplay, while the other just had smaller additional things like that gauntlet side mode or the final section? If all 9 realms have traditional gameplay sequences, then this game is going to be massive.

Guilty Gear went from not being at the last in person EVO to being the headliner for almost every single FGC event. I know some GG players don’t like the new direction Strive took it, but I feel like everyone should be proud of where it is now. Street Fighter 6 will undoubtedly explode the scene even more, but that’s the fighting game while this has been a side anime fighter. Congrats to ArcSys, and I can’t wait to see where the FGC goes from here.

As someone who actually attends FG tournaments, this seems pretty useless. Mainly because almost everything uses Start.gg for fighting games at least, which Microsoft owns. I get wanting a competitor, but it’s not a space worth competing in. All it will do is make the occasional Sony tournament more cumbersome to join because of the irregular platform. Bad move from the perspective of someone who actual uses these platforms.

@djlard GaaS are not dying. All the biggest and most popular games in the world are GaaS. The issue is how fiercely competitive and crowded the market is. That’s where publishers struggle, they think they just make any game—no matter the quality—a live service and just expect Fortnite money. This is where Sony is trying to get a foothold with the acquisition. They now have under their umbrella a ton of people who know how a live service works. This acquisition isn’t the best for PlayStation fans directly, but is smart.

Sony seems more interested than the talent this acquisition brings than just what would happen with a normal acquisition where they absorb a studio completely. They’re 100% using that extra 1 billion talent retention payment to have them help with upcoming live service games. And from what I’ve heard that’s not entirely bad, I’ve heard a lot of good things about modern Destiny 2 besides the extremely evident and egregious things like sunsetting.

I’m not as doomy as everyone else is about this, additional funding for additional talent probably won’t subtract that much from their current single player developments. The only interesting thing now is that the ink is dried, another acquisition is likely. I don’t want another one anytime soon because I just hate that practice, but I expect it.

Everyone’s calling this cringey but I love it. It’s just like Chun Li’s victory animation from SF2 when she does her relatively elaborate celebration, but just different in order to show the generational divide the game is going for. If you don’t like it, just don’t play Luke and don’t lose perfectly against Luke cuz other characters will have their own.

PushSquare I like y’all, but man it really feels like you guys are fueling this discourse. Irrelevant to my thoughts on the game, I don’t want discussion around this franchise to be miserable.

I don’t know to what extent this rings true as it’s only one anecdote so far. However this is nothing but great news after the reported crunch during TLOU2. Naughty Dogs are one of the leaders in technical achievement, so it would be phenomenal if they used the already great foundations they built with TLOU2 in a much more efficient and non abusive way.

It’s already gone gold?

Do I just don’t know game development or is this really early for a game to go gold compared to its release date? I’m not saying this as like insult or praise towards the game I’m just genuinely curious.

MW2 over SH2

Disappointed but not surprised

Ubisoft doesn’t release games, they release investor obligations

I am far from surprised that DNF duel didn’t chart. Guilty Gear Strive didn’t and that was way more popular. DNF duel had some of the worst marketing I’ve seen for a modern release—it had almost no show presence, the characters were revealed randomly with 30 second trailers, Street Fighter 6 outclassed it in almost every way for audiences in June, and it looks extremely similar to other ArcSys games on the onset.

I am a bit surprised at what happened to Fire Emblem tho, how did that game get number one last week then immediately fall out?

wow that’s crazy

Still no rollback tho

Why does every single RWBY game seem bad and even the best RWBY game is the worst game from another franchise.

I hate this tactic so much. “Hey buy this stuff you already paid and/or a completely different product you didn’t necessarily want and we’ll maybe make the game you actually want”. It sucked with Darkstalkers and Chibi Robo when it actually did kill those franchises. I was never big on the remake from its visuals and the fact that I can just buy the original on my Vita, but this makes me not want to support it.

Blessed be the Nintendo Direct for announcing like 5 different farming games
