HUMPERDOO

@JoeBlogs Your username's enough to do that to me, man! Had myself many a pair of Jo blogs jeans in the day 😂

I'm on a hiatus right now, but not so much because of the summer. More that I recently ground to a halt with GOW, which puts on protective head gear I just found so dull...

It's left me in a weird position because I'm generally a game-at-a-time person, so having not finished that I can't seem to start anything else.

Might be coz it's Wednesday, but my brain's having real trouble with the sentence "Angry Birds Movie 2 Game" . I'm going for a walk to clear my head...

Okay, debate time: So I can come here to learn how to download porn but woe betide me if I swear in a comment?

The floor's open...

@clarksmc 30th August I believe.

So any military assault will last 2-3 hours, then. I hope they've got a spare for when the first one's recharging.

LED would be cool in a firefight, I guess, though.

@tomassi I know what you mean, but judging by the screenshots I'm not sure it'll be complete 3D either. Maybe 2.5? I know they say there'll be more exploration, but that could be in a metroidvania kind of way, back and forth instead of open-worldy.

I most certainly am. I'm a big fan fo Limbo and Inside and this looks just as atmospheric. Will be fascinating to see how their game style transitions to an alternative perspective.

I'd be down with that (but then I usually am with game adaptations until I actually watch them and remember why it's a bad idea).

Ricky Whittle would be my call for Kratos, I reckon.

@ApostateMage Jurassic Park.

Sorry, I have Partridgequoteresponsesyndrome. The doctors tell me there's nothing they can do.

I still wish we could mix theme icons with our own wallpapers like the good ol' PS3 days

"Hey everyone! This guy wants a giant ribbed pina colada-flavor leopard skin condom!"

@shuvamg009 Absolutely. Fall Guys looks like it'll provide way more fun than most of the other titles on this list. Can't believe it hasn't even scraped 1% yet!

I'll buy this simply for the pleasure of walking through central without being ambushed by Chuggers every few steps. I might actually make it to work on time!

PS. What is it with the games industry and its obsession with skinhead Brits?

Can't believe they got Nic Cage for the presser. Screw you MS!

Looks cool. Can't say I'm sold on the voice casting, though. None of them seem to have much gravitas to them. I mean I can't believe I'm saying this, but it has to be the first time I don't think Nolan North fits the role. He almost sounds pubescent.

Missed this one at the time, but SpongeBoB's a 20th Century god so I'll definitely give it a whirl.

Not long started God of War so putting some time into that after a bit of a hiatus following rdr2. It's good to see there's still a healthy amount of GOW dna in there despite the changes, which are also great. I've always loved Kratos' bluntness so enjoying being back with that. Brok is brilliantly written and performed, too. I can see why it's rated so highly even at the relatively early stage I'm at. Big thumbs up.

Had to stop watching halfway through. Got hit by the hype train. Off to A&E.

Really looking forward to playing this again, especially with the new additions.

For anyone who hasn't played it, it's really more smutty/risque than outright NSFW. I don't remember there being any actual nudity, for instance, just lots of innuendo, etc. (unless my poor little mind suppressed it all of course).

It's like the 60s cartoon all over again!

Love, love, love this game. Will definitely be repurchasing 👌🏻

@Nyne11Tyme God, I totally forgot about Loaded. Sunk so many hours into that one.*

*Alas decent GCSE scores, I knew ye not.

Can I also suggest a crushing mode where you're forced to play standing with someone's armpit in your face?

Will this game have a Season Ticket with bonus legroom?

@playstation1995 I know 7’s not a bad score son. My response is based on the apparently unanimous agreement between reviewers that the gameplay, beyond the horde encounters, and the story are bland and generic. That’s disappointing to me so I’ll probably pick it up down the line. Peaceout

@JJ2 Read as if Sammy was jaded on the gameplay to me, which speaks volumes.

Disappointed myself. The early previews grabbed me, but like others I found everything since underwhelming. Was hoping the final product would pull something out of the bag, but it doesn't seem to have managed it. Bigly shame.

@RogerRoger Would you give it a rest with the snooker puns? That's your only warning. No extension.

@Medic_alert It's a good point, but I reckon the rumoured Uncharted follow-up could be their first-rate PS5 launch title. TLoU is well known, yes, but Uncharted and its characters are pretty much PS's mascots by now.

@Tasuki Noted. And kudos for the creative word replacement. I feel like I've got a Barry White vibe going on now ✌🏻

@Mikethemosher You've conflated argument with disagreement, my friend. You have a lovely day also x

@Mikethemosher What? It's got nothing to do with polls. How is changing £ to $ any more/less inconvenient? There'll always be someone who needs to convert to their native currency. This is a UK-based site so obviously it'll be shown in pounds.

Also, just call me baby man. We're not in the early 2000s anymore.

@Mikethemosher Or you could convert it yourself? Crazy, I know.

Bloody hell. You turn off your internet for 5 minutes...

I don't think people should be able to change their IDs. It'll ruin the experience for those of us who got it right the first time and compromise Sony's vision.

Not quite sure why one poll option is 'as long as it's optional I don't see why not'. Surely the fact we're talking about an easy mode means it's implicitly optional. Otherwise it's just easy, right? I mean, question isn't should all games be easy.

As for my own view, I'd appreciate the option, yeah. My experiences with FS games have always been that I love the worlds and how they're put together, but I just don't have the time to grind. Too much else going on in my life. Everyone says they're great because gamers have been hand-held for years, which I agree with, but the gap between the skill requirements of 'normal' games and FS games is a bloody chasm. Which is cool. It's just I'd love to be able to actually see one of them through.

As a final point, I don't see why it has to be easy necessarily. Can we not go with intermediate? Why suggest one extreme instead of another?

"...we've always figured that ageing consoles like the PS4 may end up struggling with it."

I dunno. TLOU proved you can still squeeze an all but next-gen title from a console at the end of its life. And that was the PS3, routinely cited as a nightmare to code for. Though admittedly that was a first-party dev and not open world. But still...

Yeah, not until they sort out the pricing on digital releases.

Yeah, I really don't think it's all that bad. I mean given it's going to be live action what else could be expected of them? I think they've handled the conjoined eyeball thing quite well personally. And really can't say I find it creepy at all.

This is all aside from the fact that a live-action Sonic's a bad idea, of course.

I don't play fighting games and have no idea who that character is. But I'll be stealing that move for sure, yessir.

@JoeBlogs True. If anyone it should have been Scrappy.
(God, I hated Scrappy...)

I'm eating a five guys with cajun fries as I read this. PushSquare really does offer a whole new level of immersion!

@Bad-MuthaAdebisi "We're very clear about our clear belief in Star Wars' clear importance to our clear business model."

It would be amazing if they incorporated a GTAV-style switch characters with the push of a button mechanic. Imagine a scenario like the NYC attack at the end of the first Avengers film where you can just hop around whenever to take on different tasks. So choice.

Always been a Marble Madness/Monkey Ball fan, so I'm interested in this. But...Marble it Up? Come on, dudes, it's hard to think of a less inspired title.

It's almost like Milla Jovovich and Paul Anderson were both abused by video games early in life, found each other through a temporal connection based on this shared trauma and made it their life's work to revisit that abuse ten-fold on the world of video games.

@andreoni79 Ha. I never noticed it before. Somehow the graphic makes it more pronounced, though I'm sure that's an optical illusion more than anything.

Personally I'd go for High Plains Drifter Clint. Or maybe Every Which Way But Loose...🤔

@andreoni79 Hahaha. Clint's really working that poncho! He's got the Victoria Secret lingerie hip-thrust down pat!

I've been growing my hair and beard since starting on release date, with occasional trips to the Barber to try some stuff to see how I was getting on. I hit level 10 last night and it was at that point that I upgraded Arthur's tent specifically To fast travel to the barbers without further delay. Happy to report I'm delighted with my 'English' with level 10 mutton chops.

I then spent the next hour putting together a brand new outfit to compliment my sculpted fuzz.

I have no idea what's going on in the story 😐

@Giygas_95 Yes! Stuff like that's happened to me so many times. In a sense I'm okay with it as I decided from the outset I was going to Blackhat this playthrough, so heavy wanted levels was always a certainty. But if you're trying to go the other direction it essentially means the honour system's broken.
