People defending this saying "Sony needs these smaller games to do well to fund the big single player games!"

Are you forgetting that this dumpster fire probably cost between £100-200m to make including the studio purchase which was a decision made solely off of this game.

Hero shooters are already bloated enough these days, let alone a sub par competitor that’s at a semi premium price compared to all its competitors being free to play these days.

Was a slight pass before playing the beta, now definitely a hard pass after suffering through said beta.

As a man who loves him some Ubisoft comfort food gaming, and as someone who has always had a Han Solo fantasy as a kid, I'm already there day one.

Yeah the footage is looking a little rough to say the least but as someone who actively enjoys what Massive puts out (even got the platinum for Avatar FoP) I'm more than certain I'll get vast amounts of enjoyment from this between the bigger releases.

Can't wait for the 8/10 review.

@themightyant in terms of England I’d say the best performers were Mainoo, Guehi, Pickford and Palmer off the bench, Stones also did well in the last few games.

Attack wasn’t flowing like I wanted but I put that down to tactical issues with Gareth and his system.

Jude is a great player but I sometimes fear he’s a bit too hot headed, multiple times in that final he let his frustration get in the way of good attacking plays.

@themightyant was only joking from my Chelsea bias haha, I would also go Vini! Bellingham is a mighty fine player but still needs a few more years of proving his worth to be on the “legends cover” for me personally!

@nessisonett that was a trio cover tho and he wasn’t alongside “legends”, those days were like general premier league players so made sense, if you had Bellingham, Mbappe and maybe Foden as the cover stars in a trio I’d be happier with it.

Bellingham as a cover star alongside legends of the game though is a bit much for me.

@themightyant he plays more like a target man for Real, and outside of one moment against Slovakia he was quite poor for England imo.

@ShogunRok COLD PALMER 😉

Another overrated player stealing the cover lmao, bring back the days of FIFA covers going to amazing players

As someone who actually played 2 hours of this, yeah… nah.

Worst hero shooter I’ve played, nice levels of polish when it comes to presentation and the cutscenes are nice but that’s about it, gameplay is slow and clunky, aiming is not intuitive, map design is poor and the game is lacking the basics of a MP title,

Should’ve been F2P or a PS Plus day one title.

FF7 Rebirth and it’s not even remotely close lmao

@REALAIS just like OJ Simpson! 😉

@SteveJaye regardless of the age of consent being different in different regions, if you broke the law for that age of consent where you are that does make you a sexual offender because you’re engaging with someone under the legal age limit and especially being 42 it becomes even worse.

This man had a young daughter and still messaged a minor inappropriately, that is disgusting and should be shamed to the fullest of extents.

@nessisonett “old enough to have kids”

I’m pretty sure he does have kids sadly

Whoever is on his legal team needs to do a better job counselling him because how do you step onto this rake so early on.

@Savage_Joe we both did the same thing man lmao, i type fast and ramble I can’t help it 😂

“Were there Twitch whisper messages with an individual minor back in 2017? The answer is yes”

Dr Disrespect confirmed he sent messages to a minor on Twitch which allegedly led to his ban

@Savage_Joe

1. James Gunn posted very weird jokes but that’s all they were, jokes, and that was always known, Doc is actually being accused of sexually explicit messages with minors which is completely different and you know it.

2. Of course it’s a constitutional right and I haven’t once said anything along the lines of “lock him up” or anything like that because of that very concept, my point was that people are bending themselves into all kinds of shapes trying to defend him for no reason, he’s innocent till proven guilty but also we have to acknowledge and respect the accuser and what they’ve levelled at him. And also we all know courts can be corrupt, many people sentenced either way have been overturned in years prior due to said corruption so we can’t use it as a blanket rule.

3. I’m not trying to preach anything my friend, just giving my side of an opinion surrounding this very current topic, I don’t speak for anyone and am no political activist, it’s an internet forum and discussion is key. And again it’s a silly meme it’s not a serious thing, if I changed my profile picture to someone else it wouldn’t automatically change my points to being valid now would it?

@Savage_Joe

1) all the sponsors are running scared after doing internal investigations and are coming to the same conclusion, if that’s not a sign I don’t know what is

2) innocent till proven guilty has been warped into something that is weaponised by the far right to defend their heroes like Trump, going off your logic OJ never did anything wrong because he was found innocent in the court of law!

3) it’s a meme, it ain’t that deep, Kanye is an awful person too, this is you doing a “you criticise society yet are part of society” thinking you delivered a zinger

Seeing multiple people in here defending being a nonce, gotta love the internet!

“Protect the Kids” ages worse by the day.

"Must Play Games!" followed by Final Fantasy 16 and Watch Dogs Legion is certainly an opinion.

Yeah I don’t get what the article is going for here, Shadow was always loved (as he should be!)

Comparing the game to Watch Dogs is a positive to me as i loved the second one and enjoyed the other two titles for the most part too.

I can’t play too many Ubisoft games but limiting them to 1/2 every 3 years is a good balance, Avatar was a fun enough time and i expect this to be more of that same enjoyment.

I’m very happy Sony have started rolling out PS2 games but you have to ask where’s the point in doing so when you’re launching games to have worse resolutions and performances than they did TWO generations ago, whilst charging a pretty enough penny for them too.

Clickbaity title given the gameplay seems to be on PC through an Xbox Controller, that being said though I'm liking what I'm seeing of this, especially given my overall enjoyment with Massive's previous works in The Division 1/2 and Avatar FoP, I'm probably a lot more optimistic than many for this.

@naruball 18 First Party games shown by the way, and also even if we were to make the whole gamepass/third party debate, this was better than ANY Sony showcase since the 2015 E3 holy conference.

And this is coming from someone who is regularly critical of Xbox and their decision making, but it’s simply the truth.

This isn’t related but isn’t it funny that Xbox are now currently creating more first party narrative linear titles than Sony because they chose to chase the live service beast and are releasing probable stinkers in Concord and FairGame$, I never would’ve saw that coming at the start of the generation.

Alan Wake II DLC
More Monster Hunter Footage without a release date

And confirming that I won’t be buying Slitterhead…

That’s about it.

Worst game event I have ever seen, this could’ve been an email.

Astro Bot
Silent Hill 2
Behemoth

I think the game is looking a lot better, especially during the extended gameplay sequence, my only issues are Angela’s face looked really off, the framerate was a bit spotty and combat seemed like a really janky reiteration of RE2 Remake’s combat.

But it’s Bloober Team so I expected some jank, if reviews aren’t an absolute car crash I’ll happily pick this up around launch.

@Kiefer-Sutherland and gameplay that didn’t dip into the low 20s frame rate wise lmao

@The_Wailing_Doom I’ll change my wording as I don’t mean it to look like it’s £70 but online most people are saying between the £40-50 range which is 40/50 too much, this should’ve been free to play, as there’s just no appeal especially with better free options in Marvels Rivals/xDefiant/Destiny 2 and the imminent premium competitor in Black Ops 6 looking to be a return to form for the franchise

I just don’t see how this doesn’t flop horribly unless Sony change the structure of its release, especially locking beta access behind a preorder paywall.

Define scarily good? Because in some areas it looks downright worse than the original lmao

A premium priced generic looking arena shooter in 2024, this is going to die a miserable death and I really do not know what Sony saw in this studio to immediately acquire them.

Straight from the combat details excerpts:

“Difficulty level can be adjusted at any time, with useful features to help you in battle.”

the inc- I mean passionate fans won! congrats to those erm…. Unique individuals for their petition over something as important as…. checks notes digital cleavage!

This screams 30fps on consoles.

This seems the best wait for a sale game, it simply isn't optimised on any platform and even on a 4090 it drops below the 30s, it wasn't ready for release and shame on Capcom for releasing something so unoptimised, however the game itself seems like a gem, albeit without many main issues of the first game properly addressed/rectified, but I think in a few months once some patches roll out it'll be a great purchase and one of the eventual gems of 2024!

screw clothing i need me a terminid plushie!

@Danloaded it's available on physical on TheGameCollection for pre-order!

@Smash41 i could kiss you right now! absolutely chuffed with that purchase, bargain at £16.

@TrickyDicky99

But this game (in my opinion) isn't pushing the PS5 in any possible way, it looks like a PS4 game and doesn't do anything to innovate open world design or has anything i can immediately think to warrant the tax on hardware. I would've said destruction tech on the CPU but even that doesn't look like anything special.

Hopefully the retail version will have a performance mode with a lower resolution/preset for textures etc.

The PS5 Pro isn't something needed desperately because the hardware hasn't even begun to be pushed by anything.

No game has even came close to peak visuals since Horizon FW and Cyberpunk 2077 apart from maybe FF16.

It's just general knowledge that cross generation development hasn't even begun to test the waters of what this hardware can do and another SKU will only complicate things further.

A pro model isn't something desperately needed, with the last generation it made sense with the jump to 4K displays/HDR but this time I can't see the reasoning beyond "more frames", especially since any game going forward will have to run on the base PS5 anyway so won't push the technology in any meaningful way.

Your website gave the game a 7/10 so surely you're partially happy with this response?

@Amppari Don't be such a fool, these are innocent employees with families who are now unemployed through no fault of their own, have some compassion.

something has to give in the industry and fast, we can't continue to allow innocent employees across the board to suffer and pay the price for investors and executives making horrible decisions.

instead of buying a PS5 Pro this winter, how about you put that money into supporting indie titles so the industry can see how sick we all are of these AAA/AAAA mockeries
