Re: Guide: God of War FAQ - Everything You Need to Know

@Rudy_Manchego At least you're in a better spot than me...I'm gonna play through all of them before playing this one, and I haven't even started yet. I'm waiting for them to go on sale. If Sony would just hurry up and start the next flash sale (which I feel certain will include some God of War games) I could get started.

Re: Soapbox: You Should Play God of War III While You Wait for Kratos' Return

Giygas_95

@ShogunRok I've been waiting for this month's North American flash sale because I feel certain Sony's gonna discount some GoW games. I already recently got the origins collection physically so now I need Ascension, 3 Remastered, and the collection with 1 and 2. I also still have a 20% off code from one of Sony's video viewing promotions a while back.

Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying God of War?

Giygas_95

Already pre-ordered before any reviews came out. I haven't played a God of War game yet, but I'm planning to play through all the other ones first so I voted that I've played all the other ones.

Re: Review: God of War (PS4)

Giygas_95

I've only been interested in this game for about a month, but it feels much longer...I won't be able to play it right away though as I want to finish the Uncharted games first. Currently on Uncharted 3 now. And then I'm gonna play the other God of War games to get me ready for this one!

Re: Guide: PS4 Pro - Best Boost Mode Games

Giygas_95

@Eternallover21 The Last of Us got a Pro patch so boost mode no longer applies.

Speaking of which, I'm a bit annoyed that they Pro patched Doom because I'd take spotless frame rate over higher resolution (which I can't even see on my TV) any day.

One of my favorite boost mode games is Sniper Elite 3. It pretty much eliminates all noticeable frame drops.

Re: Far Cry 5 Destroys Franchise Sales Records

Giygas_95

@Gamer83 Yeah, the Amazon discount is the only reason I'd ever really buy physically. I really prefer digital copies, but if I can get a game for $51 instead of $64, well... that's an obvious choice. I guess I was more meaning it makes more sense to own a digital copy than a physical copy on PS4, but when it comes to the actual act of buying, physical wins out due to price.

Re: Far Cry 5 Destroys Franchise Sales Records

Giygas_95

I'm suddenly finding myself interested in this game. I won't be getting it for a while though until I finish the Uncharted and God of War series. Then I really should try to play through the Mass Effect Trilogy I got a while back.

I often buy games physically on my Switch to save memory. On PS4, there's almost no reason to buy physically since the space advantage doesn't apply what with games installing to the HDD. That said, I've often bought physical copies on PS4 since I can usually get them cheaper. I wish I had gotten more of my PS4 games digital though.

Re: God of War Director on Campaign Length: 'What Have We Done?'

Giygas_95

I'm super excited for this. I might not be able to play it on release though because I want to finish my play through of the Uncharted games first (currently on Chapter 6 of Uncharted 2). And then I'm gonna play all the other God of War games to get me ready for this one. Got a long road ahead of me!

Re: Guide: New PS4 Games Releasing in April 2018

Giygas_95

God of War already pre-ordered. I had an Amazon Prime discount as well as Amazon gift cards left over from Christmas so I got the game for $1.35.

I can't wait! Well I guess I can actually because I'm going to play through all the older GoW games first.

Re: Red Faction Guerrilla Is Getting Re-Mars-tered for PS4

Giygas_95

On one hand this is exciting, but on the other hand, I played the heck out of this back in the day, and I don't know if it's worth revisiting. And there are a lot of new games coming out this year that take priority. I guess it'll depend on how much new stuff they add if any.

Re: DOOM's Hellscape Gets a 4K Update Tomorrow

Giygas_95

@NintendoFan4Lyf Same here! Motion aiming is great. It makes me wish they'd patch it into the PS4 version. I mean the DS4 has all the hardware necessary for it...

In fact I'd say it's a shame more FPS games don't take advantage of the DS4 touch pad as a mouse. I've used the touch pad as a mouse for aiming when playing certain shooters on my PC, and it works great.

Re: DOOM's Hellscape Gets a 4K Update Tomorrow

Giygas_95

@get2sammyb I'm guessing this patch will basically replace boost mode for this game. Hopefully it'll still be locked at 60 and not do what The Last of Us Remastered did before the latest patch. I imagine if you actually had a 4K TV though you might see some drops.

Let's just hope this update doesn't make the game much bigger. It's already like 72 gigs!

Re: Poll: What Do You Think About Remasters?

Giygas_95

I love remasters that actually have effort put into them. If you want a good example of how NOT to do a remaster, Splinter Cell Trilogy HD. Great games, but Ubisoft basically just ported them to PS3. There's frame drops all over the place, and they didn't even try for 60 FPS (despite quite literally advertising the games as such).

But then there's remasters that really did have effort put into them like, for instance, Wind Waker HD. And other remasters that had effort put into them were my introduction to the games they are remasters of. The Last of Us Remastered was my first experience with the game, and I loved it. I'm also planning to try Good of War III Remastered Shadow of the Colossus, and the Uncharted Collection, none of which I've ever played before.

Re: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Remastered Ditches Multiplayer

Giygas_95

Seems like this should be marked as rumor until it's officially announced...anyway, I'd definitely get this. I love Modern Warfare Remastered, and I loved the original MW2.

Of course, I hope that it would just be missing regular multiplayer because no split screen spec-ops would be a deal breaker!

Re: No Load Screens, No Camera Cuts in God of War Seemed 'Impossible' Says Dev

Giygas_95

It's interesting that they pulled this off, because, if you think about it, it also really limits what kind of story you can write. Your story requires a time jump at some point? That requires a camera break. With a story that never cuts like that, you're forced to write something really focused that takes place over a relatively short period of time. Congrats to them for pulling it off.

I've never even played a game from this series, and I'm excited for this!

Re: Poll: What Are Your Thoughts on EA These Days?

Giygas_95

I'll just say this. EA used to publish genuinely great games like the earlier Medal of Honor games and some very good James Bond games such as Agent Under Fire, Nightfire, Everything or Nothing, and From Russia with Love (seriously, why couldn't we have gotten some more Bond games adapted from the earlier films?). But these days...I can't remember the last time EA made a game I was even remotely interested in.
