Cool. will probably still wait for a couple more patches. I'm not in a rush. Especially with Mass Effect releasing soon. I' think I'll dig into that one for a while.

@MJKatana Cool! Im sure you'll enjoy it if you're even remotely into the genre

@MJKatana No its not that hard. Of course it isnt easy but saving and loading is super fast so it's easy to just try something and if it doesnt work you just load your quick save.

Completing the missions is very doable with a bit of patience and good thinking, and theres also a hardcore difficulty and tons of challenges and different approaches for each mission so theres a lot of replay value and more difficulty if you'd want to.

And if you get stuck theres allways youtube where some guy does a speedrun while blindfolded or something

By the way I believe its on sale for just 5euro in the EU PS Store so thats a no brainer if you ask me

Thats funny, just started my 2nd playthrough last week. I highly recommend this game

@sonofsmallface perhaps a demo or part of a earlier free weekend?

@daldrum scalpers buying up stock and hardware supply issues for Sony. Do you think Sony does this on purpose? They're losing money and customers this way.

I can totally see the appeal in just chilling in the environment. For example I find Ghost Recon Wildlands a very relaxing game because of this. In my opinion one of the most fantastic non fantasy open worlds ever made.

And I do basically the same in Elite Dangerous. Just cruising around, exploring the milkyway and taking in the sights.

Am I getting old? I'm probably getting old..

I still have it on the shelf waiting for the Go sign to try it again. Which will possibly be when theres a PS5 version AND Im able (and willing) to acquire one (which Im not sure of right now).

@Robinsad the argument that its not gambling is that there is no way to cash out. This disproves that.

@Channel42 yeah it's a shame because the shooting and gunplay still feel fantastic. It's all just a bit too chaotic for my taste.

I think DOOM Eternal went a bit overboard compared to DOOM 2016. Too many new mechanics to keep track of during playing which takes away the focus from just shooting things. It feels like 'sequel syndrome' where everything has to be BIGGER and BETTER where a more streamlined experience would be just as good or even better.

@PhhhCough it wont be all for naught. There comes a point where the supply is decent enough that scalping is no longer viable. They cant keep buying up all PS5's, there is a break even point

@thefourfoldroot lol thats very honest

This is definitely going to be a year before its in a GOOD state rather than merely playable..

Really guys.... Well I suppose its best not to announce a game when it isnt ready yet cough cyberpunk

Sounds cool. Tactical shooters allways have my interest

@MarcurShaw also the supermarkets are the ones delivering the product from a hard to get source to the consumer. It's not reasonable for a consumer to visit a farmer everytime they need milk.
The scalpers, however, are the ones making an easy to come by product more difficult to come by (allmost impossible even) ..

They're not lending a service or helping anybody other than themselves

Sales like this always remind me I'm really not into Japanese games.. Even Metal Gear Solid was too 'japanese' for my taste. to each his own I guess.

Great. Now let's see some of the combat of ME1

@Vacuumator I usually have a 3.4x scope and canted iron sight (and muzzle brake) on the slower firing DMR's. The faster firing ones I often run with a regular red dot scope because I use them a bit more aggresively.

I think the reason DMR's work so well for me is because you have to adjust your playstyle a bit to compensate for the lack of close range capability. So I moderate myself rather than rushing in and I take the time to flank etc.

But of course this depends on the map, some maps or areas of certain maps don't really allow for DMR's. I allways have a fast firing AR in Oplock for example.

@Vacuumator PDW's, really? I tried most of them but didn't find one that really clicks. I mostly use DMR's or Carbines (M4, SG552 or the TAR for close quarters). I usually like a bit more range and there isn't a single PDW that has any.

@joey302 well every class has a role and I dont mind snipers per se but it definitely shouldnt be easy. I think my most played class in BF4 is engineer. I allways felt useless as assault because everytime a vehicle comes by I have to cower in a ditch hoping he didnt see me...lol it depends on the map and gamemode though.

Man talking about BF4 makes me want to play it again

@stinkyx the first treyarch game got me thinking twice about ever getting another treyarch game. It was the one between MW1 and 2 set in ww2. I got black ops but that was the last treyarch game I ever got

@joey302 it's not necessarely the snipers, its more how they play. Sometime I snipe too but I still end up pretty high on the scoreboard because I actively attack objectives rather than sit on a hill for half the match.

And in BF4 because it's so hard to snipe at long distance when I get killed while on the move I just say "nice shot

Used to be my favorite games but after the last iterations I'm not very optimistic about it. I'm mostly concerned about the stupid monetization models they're going to implement now. BF1 had a terrible progression system which took all the fun out of it with it's random lootboxes, rather than using a gun to earn upgrades for it (like BF3 and 4).

BFV wasn't my cup of tea in pretty much every way. the setting, the gamemodes, the maps, the weapons, the progression system and free to play mechanics...The only cool addition of V was the revive mechanic. This added a cool gameplay addition of having to choose to take a risk to revive someone, and shooting a guy holding his buddy in his arms felt pretty brutal.

Oh and for the love of all that is holy please nerf the snipers. BF4 was great in that regard, sniping was difficult so if you would just stay on the move you'd hardly ever get killed. Stand still and you die. In 1 and V you were just constatntly being killed by snipers because of the lame one hit kill addition in BF1 and the massive headshot hitboxes of BFV..

@nessisonett I agree Metro is great. I love the slower pace of the games compared to other shooters. Every move you make has to be considerate, managing your ammo, healthpacks, chosing what gear to craft and update. So many options to consider, especially on higher difficulty. You can't just go in guns blazing.

Only downside is the godawfull voice acting. I tried switching to russian but it was still terrible lol

Hopefully this will keep me busy untill cyberpunk is fixed

@Mad001 that completely depends on the size of your television and your distance from it (and you're vision). But if you're not sitting more than 2,5 times the diagonal of your television from the screen the difference between 1080 and 4K t should be visible for all people with decent eyesight.

@NemesisSam30 Yes, I believe so.

@Nakatomi_Uk yeah they churn them out pretty often and usually they're relatively small iterations as some issues from previous games persist. Even as a bike enthusiast the full retail price is a bit steep for me and I usually wait a while for a good sale.

From a technical standpoint they're not very impressive games but if you like bikes and semi-realistic track racing (memorizing corners and braking points etc. as opposed to the need for speed style racing) you can certainly enjoy these games.

@tinCAT-zero I played 6 years later. It was very much the same as 1, 2 3 4 and 5 in my opinion

@Th3solution well you cant really sell it unless they made a few changes to...well everything really...man that game is clunky lol

Lost my interest in Gran Turismo long ago. The high point for me personally was GT4. 5 was just an HD update, 6 went completely under my radar, Sport had it's moments and at least tried something new but if multiplayer isn't your cup of tea it fell flat.

The only way this could get my interest again is if they have massive improvements to the opponent AI and there is an option to qualify for races and set the race length. If literally every race means you have 3 laps to work your way to number one from last place then as a game designer you don't really understand what racing is about...

I enjoyed Project Cars 2 massively more then Gran Turismo becaues I could learn a track in free practice and adjust my settings, then qualify, then depending on my qualifying results I had to defend my position from a capable AI, or try to overtake by driving slightly faster but very consistent. The feeling of finally overtaking someone (even an AI) after stalking him for 5 laps is so much better then overtaking 12 cars in 2 laps in a massively overpowered car.

But yeah, that's just my 2 cents. If you guys still enjoy Gran Turismo as much as I did back in the days I'm happy for you. I just wish they would improve on a few areas are then shinier cars.

I'm looking forward to this but my expectations aren't sky high. with the footage they've shown so far I think the setting doesnt look as interesting as the previous game. And the unneeded addition of a branching story and the troubled development had tempered my expectations somewhat.

Lmao. Just started Control 2 days ago. Ouch! Oh well. Congrats to anyone that didn't have it yet. I've played a bit and it seems like an awesome game.

I was accidentally on a website where it was available for pre order so couldve been lucky but I decided not to buy it. I can easily wait at least another year. It doesnt feel like the ps3 to ps4 transition where new games would barely run on the older hardware. Cyberpunk is an exception so far

@Channel42 I have the same. I enjoyed RE4 as a whole. But it feels like 2 different games to me. The cool part in the village and the lame part in the castle. The final third is decent imo but again not as cool as the village.

Ill get it when its cheap like I did Ride 2 and 3. Fun games but not worth full retail imo

Honestly how many remakes do you guys want. I understand the games hold some nostalgic value but they really arent THAT good in terms of gameplay?

@Paranoimia yeah same here. Im content with my Pro with SSD for now. Ill upgrade to PS5 when there is at least one game that I must absolutely play on PS5

@Paranoimia well the ps5 will be relevant for years to come so I dont think you will waste your money by buying one. Except if you pay scalper prices for it

Real bummer. I've been waiting for years on this. Dying Light 1 was fantastic fun and the Dead Island games too. Especially when playing in coop

It's good that the hype around it died quickly so they can hopefully work on improving the game in some peace. the results will be better for it. Just look at the first patch that was rushed out and suddenly broke the in game menu.

Cool. Gonnma give Greedfall a go since I'm looking for a rpg to take the place of cyberpunk

@TheArt well it sold really well and a lot of people were happy with it so I would say it wasn't a bad move. Maybe they shouldve discontinued it a little earlier but perhaps they didnt expect the amount of day one sales that the PS5 had. I think corona meant a lot of people were sitting at home bored out of their minds so sales were very good.

@TheArt it was never supposed to be necessary, just an option for those that wanted to.

Deleted it off my harddrive so I wouldnt be tempted to play it anyway. Was going to wait at least untill the february patch but the way things are looking this will be at least a year before they fix the technical issues AND the balancing and cut content etc. Bummer.

@TechaNinja isnt that from Mars Attacks! ?

@Wazeddie22 dying light 2! For the love of god what happened to this game

@ObserverGamez yeah its funny how the other characters were a lot more interesting than the main character. I liked Juna as well and I thought Jin acted like a right a****** to her, convincing her to stay all the time. "Promise me to keep fighting". Oh come on! Just let her go allready lol.
