Re: PlayStation Could Have Fresh Competition in Stadia, Google's New Game Streaming Platform

Gumbopudding

I love this idea as I don't keep games, I play then sell them. But as i said the techs not ready. 1)youtube and Netflix work because they buffer while you watch and it still can have bad days and pauses. But in general you don't see how inconsistent streaming is because of the large buffer. You can't buffer a game. 2) with net neutrality gone you may live in an area that is paid to promote another service over Google so that will make it worse.

Re: Days Gone Details Its Seriously Impressive Photo Mode

I tried it once or twice in RDR2 then realized I'll never do anything with these pics so couldn't care less personally. But I see how many people love it so always good to give players extra features to play with so its cool they did this.

Going to see a lot of 1)mountain top, leaning on your bike. 2)middle of a crazed horde. 3) leaning on your bike in a middle of a horde.

Re: Fixing The Division 2's Disastrous Skill Cooldown Bug Is the Developer's 'Highest Priority'

Gumbopudding

Geesh when did bugs become so horrible that it becomes "disastrous" and "seriously damaging the experience"? It's a big bug yeah, but it's not like it wouldn't be quickly fixed. But you make it sound like it renders the game unplayable forever.

Nobody is thinking something like this is "Anthem all over again'. Bugs happen, they get fixed. This is like the collective freak out when instagram went down for a bit. Relax.

Re: Round Up: The Division 2 PS4 Reviews Start Relatively Strong

Gumbopudding

This why I don't think reviews, games or otherwise, should have scores. People see a number and jump all over it. People here are jumping all over that low review number, not which parts of the review they disagree with.

I never rely on scores, I always read them to see if their complaints or praise are things I can relate to. For example, the dark souls games are way too hard for me. But if the next game in series was massively easy it would get low scores, but it would be more fun for me. So score mean nothing without the reasons behind it.

Re: Beat Cop - An 80s Police Adventure That Gets Away with Murder

@Quintumply Never heard of that one. Unfortunately, looking that up its not it. I don't think the one I'm looking for allows you to get out of your car. Shakedown looks like an original GTA throw back.

I believe the one I'm thinking of is just a racing escape police game. It's newly announced, within a month or two. I don't think it has as much retro looking graphics. Dang, been trying to figure out what game it was for weeks. I saw it for less than a minute and wanted to go back and check it out and couldn't find it. Thanks for posting that though.

Re: Physical Copies of The Division 2 Will Require a Gigantic 90GB Download

Gumbopudding

Serious question to those who have gone digital only. Do you still play all your older games? I ask because I rarely if ever go back to games I got long ago. Too many new games to play to go back to a game I beat last year. Surely some sit there untouched since completion.

This is why I go physical, so I can sell it. I'm at a ratio of buy 2-3 games get 1 free by doing that. Totally worth it.

Re: Horizon: Zero Dawn Sells Over 10 Million Copies Worldwide in Two Years

Gumbopudding

This is a game that did everything right and for some reason I didn't enjoy it and I don't know why. Normally this is exactly the type of game I love but I can't put my finger on why I didn't when I can always understand why I didn't enjoy a game. I didn't hate it, i just can't say I had a lot of fun either.

I don't think I'd get the sequel because I don't know if they changed things I didn't like if I don't know what I didn't like. Never felt this way after playing a game before. It's weird.

Re: Poll: Do You Think Sony Is Telling the Truth About Cross-Play?

Gumbopudding

What I don't understand is why. PS4 was a runaway success with some of the best exclusives I've seen in a long time. Why wouldn't Sony want the ps4 players to be talking about those games to other players on other consoles. "That's all for me tonight. Going to play some Spiderman. It's a blast."

That being said I never play online because of the toxic environment. I can't imagine how bad it would be with those console warriors going at each other during a game. "Thats all for me. I'm going to play the best game evar spiderman. Enjoy your crap crackdown" is what you'd most likely hear unfortunately.

Re: Shawn Layden Explains Sony's Decision to Pull Out of E3 2019

Gumbopudding

I agree. These days who needs to be lost in a crowd of other games to be known. Why force early pr and expectations on somebody else's preset e3 date when you can share it when ever you want online for free and reach just as many people.

If Nintendo, Sony or MS announce a big new game will it be more well known if reported during E3 among 100 games instead any other day? No.

Heck, Apex proves you don't even need any pre hype at all. It's a new world out there.
