Re: Voting for The Game Awards Players' Voice Award Has Begun

Ichiban

Despite current gaming being as crap as it is, I had fun with some great titles this year: Psychonauts 2, Guardians Of The Galaxy, and Kena: Bridge Of Spirits have all been fantastic & deserving of any awards they won.
Too bad the game awards show is just one bloated 3 hour commercial & Keighly having a zoom call with Kojima, life is too short.

Re: Feature: PS5 Report Card - How Is It After One Year?

Ichiban

Had a PS5 since day 1, and I had a great time at launch. Demon's Souls was awesome & Astro was a great showcase for the dual sense features (which has yet to be topped, nothing has come close). But now it just feels like another playstation console, and I'm not too fussed by the upcoming exclusive games. But I still enjoy my time with it, it's decent.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy?

Ichiban

I bought it yesterday, and played through a few chapters. But this is great, exactly the kind of game I like. A fun, funny, action adventure game with great characters, awesome graphics, and it's not open world hallelujah!! Some of the facial animation is incredible too, quite possibly the best I've seen.
Excited to get back to it today!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 399

Working nightshifts this weekend,but hopefully I can get some Back 4 Blood in on Sunday night. If I'm not too tired that is!
I do hope Guardians Of The Galaxy turns out well next week, I'm craving that kind of game at the moment.
Oh, and I finished Far Cry 6. Which will be my last of those games, life is just too short!

Far Cry 6, which, once again you guys were bang on the money with your 7/10 score. Fun, but frustrating. fR_eeBritney nailed down alot of the issues with the game (thanks for that, saved me some time!) But oh boy, the characters in this game are simply atrocious.....just so so bad. I rarely skip cutscenes, but I can't hold down the circle button quick enough in this case! So bad...
Co-op is still a good time though!

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Tales of Arise?

Ichiban

Alrighty, been waiting to give my opinion on this one. It starts off very strong, combat is fun, story & characters intriguing, epic soundtrack. But like a few others here, I found the further the game went on, the worse it got. The areas, music, enemies, story all suffered as the game went on. Another gripe is that the towns you visit are void of life, even the populated ones. Most NPC's just stand around like a stunned mullet, feels very ps1 era.
It was decent though, I'd give it a 7/10.

Re: Sony: The Pipeline of Games for PS5 Is Just Fantastic

Ichiban

I really enjoyed the PS5 launch games, had a jolly old time. I'm not currently as excited for the near future, sequels are cool, but I really like the new stuff, or new takes on old franchises. That's what made the PS4 & Playstation in general so great, & I look forward to it more on the PS5.

Re: There'll Be No Ray Tracing in Far Cry 6 on PS5

Ichiban

Gotta be honest: I don't even notice ray tracing most of the time. I've played through a bunch of games using it & didn't even know until I checked the graphics settings. (The only game I've ever noticed it on is Miles Morales)

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 394

Ichiban

I'm finally going to start Tales this weekend, now that I've finished Life Is Strange: True Colours. And I have to say, you guys were bang on with your 6/10 review. Great characters, but a story which goes nowhere & fizzles out so hard in the last 2 chapters it's almost comedic seeing all those 9/10 reviews out there.
