Re: Fans Are Praying Dead Space Is on the Cusp of a Comeback

Eadgar

OMG. Dead Space is one of the greatest games ever. Deal Space I and Dead Space II are experiences every gamer should have. Hope this is true. We need more Dead Space. Special mention to Dead Space Extraction. Which is a great on rails shooter in it's own right.

Re: River City Girls 2 Beats Down PS5, PS4 Next Year

Eadgar

I had thought they, WayForward, were actually developing a game based on the RWBY franchise. I wonder if that is still in development and just was not ready to be shown.

Regarding River City Girls.......welcome news, very happy it is getting a sequel.

Re: Sony Explains How Second-Party Fits into Its Software Slate

Eadgar

To me, the most important aspect is the relationship and trust that Sony will develop with these "second-party" studios. Sony will trust these studios to develop a project they are passionate about and will support it, while the developer will trust Sony to give them the platform to flesh out their ideas and the user base to make the project a success.

Re: Hades Could Finally Be Coming to PlayStation

Eadgar

@SlySnake0407 I have never played a game from them before, so this will be my first, and also my first rouge game. I hope to understand the concept after playing it.

Truth be told, i would love for transistor to go on sale on PSN. That is the game from Supergiant that really intrigues me.

Re: PS5 Game Boost Trailer Raises Eyebrows

Eadgar

Pretty nice. On a personal level i am completely satisfied with 60 fps, so it really does not bother me too much that PS5 BC cannot do more on frame rate for older titles. Save 120fps or better for the newer titles.

Re: Returnal (PS5) - Housemarque's Deep, Dark Shooter Is a PS5 Must Have

Eadgar

This might be controversial, especially given the issue of pricing. I have never bought a Housemarque game at launch, and thus feel responsible for the comment they made a few years ago about arcade games being dead. I have always bought their games when on sale because I am always late to the party, but Housemarque games have never disappointed me. Nex Machina, for example, is an amazing experience and so is Matterfall.

Here is the controversy, i do not own a PS5, but i will buy this game at the asking price, and at launch because I am not that bothered by it, eventhough i understand the concerns about pricing from gamers, but I am also buying it as a way of saying thanks to Housemarque for their past games. They deserve all the support that will be coming their way, and i hope this game can be a great starting point for them as they increase their brand awareness and status within the industry.

Best of luck to them in the future and i hope the people who play this game on the PS5 enjoy it. As for me, it will be in my library until i join the PS5 army.

Re: Sony Backtracks PS3, PS Vita Online Store Closures

Eadgar

Excellent news, but this is just the beginning. We all know the PS3 is the so called "ugly duckling" of the PS family (given how it is the only console to not cross 100 million units sold worldwide), but the PSN started on said console. If Sony is finding it difficult to keep it alive due to technological reasons etc., they must find a way to integrate it into more modern technologies. But removing it should never be an option.

Re: Days Gone Director on Skipped Sequel: 'If You Love a Game, Buy It at F***ing Full Price'

Eadgar

While he makes a valid point, actually more than valid, it is completely true from the perspective of game development, the way he delivers this message is completely wrong and rude.

I am of the opinion that game development costs need to be scaled back for the majority of developers. Most gamers cannot justify the recent price increase, so developers must scale back development. I imagine most gamers would be happy with game experiences not exceeding a particular time frame, that way they can finish the game.

But this is just my opinion.

Re: Why You Should Download These Free Play At Home Games

Eadgar

What are the chances Astro Bot Rescue Mission will be playable on PlayStation VR II, or any of these VR games? I do not own a PS4 VR and do not plan to, however, PlayStation VR II has me intrigued and would not mind playing Astro Bot Rescue Mission there.

Re: Soapbox: PS5 Has Turned Me Into a Total 60FPS Snob

Eadgar

I like it that they give options, so the consumer can choose which is their preference. I know, or rather, have read articles that state that developers always prefer resolution over frames. That is what they prioritize during development, to an extent. As one who is developer first, I respect that, and will always continue to support developer preference.

However, me personally, I will always choose frames over resolution. So when a developer gives me an option, a choice on which I would like to prioritize, frames or resolution, I am always thankful for that and i hope this continues throughout the generation that way both parties win, developers and consumers.

Re: Sony Buys Fighting Game Tournament Evo, Evo Online Confirmed for August

Eadgar

From a personal perspective this is a very exciting move and one that makes sense. As a fighting game connoisseur it is also a good fit. For years Sony has seemed as the de facto FGC platform, along with the growing PC market too.

Really excited for what the future holds. I was actually going to go to EVO last year to compete in SC VI but Covid-19 happened.

Re: Oh, Okay! PS5's Deathloop Looks Freakin' Rad

Eadgar

@Medic_Alert That has always been a shame to know. I adored the Dishonored franchise and am sad to see it go away, but business is business no need to moan. I do wish Arkane well in it's future endeavors, that is the studio that will be missed the most in the Microsoft acquisition, in my opinion.

But you are right their games never lit up the sales chart, and that was not due to their quality, people just where never interested for some reason. Which is why you always hear the argument that most Bethesda games do not sell. It is partially true, and from a fan of Arkane it was always sad to know of this.

Still, really happy Bethesda kept supporting the studio and franchise and allowed them to make three games in the series regardless of sales numbers.

Re: Cory Barlog Admits He Had 'No Idea' What He Was Doing When Directing God of War 2

Eadgar

Amazing game. I first played it and the first God of War on the PS3 with the God of War collection. These are a few of the games i actually achieved a platinum throphy (not a trophy hunter my any means).

I still have to get around to God of War (PS4). I have it still sealed, along with Bloodborne and so many many more. I hate having the money to buy games but not the time 😠
