Re: Random: Can Sony Topple SEGA and Nintendo? Classic BBC Report Investigates

@Remix
I so agree with the last bit of your comment. How I had to go through piles of magazines if I was stuck in an adventure game for some reason. It was lovely to read the reviews though and in that regard I’m not sure nowadays reviews are a progress. Much positivity celebrating video games.
Now someone complained to me that checking you tube was too difficult. Haha
Or a couple of frame drop now ‘ruins’ the game 😅

Re: UK Sales Charts: Horizon Forbidden West Back on Top, GT7 Sales Improve

@zupertramp
Oh it’s probably temporary if some can only get bundles instead of just the console. That’s due to shortages and should improve. It’s NOT the bundle that is a problem. (Even I am not interested in HFW but if I had to.buy a bundle it wouldnt be that bad. Just forcing my hand into maybe a nice experience with the game. Though again the shortage is the problem, not the bundle) I think it’s better than the shop bundles with all sort of devices in it amounting to a very expensive buy. That is bad.

Re: Press X for Trophies Is a Sad Indictment of PS5, PS4 Today

@Northern_munkey
No worries. Your own comment again is discussing what we are not allowed to discuss here and since I’m referring to it it’s a catch 22 and it’s getting ridiculous here Haha
Anyway I’m no drama queen but just saying my honest thoughts.
😅
Anyway when I go to the store I usually have an idea of what I’m looking for and people just searching random stuff then they get what they want. Random stuff. I don’t see anything wrong and better focus of gaming positivity when there’s so much misery in the world who can’t afford gaming. 😕
You know what a lot of people complain about Twitter but I’m fortunate I use it because for instance seeing posts from Shu and Greg Rice gives me good positive vibes about gaming that we don’t get here and that’s what gaming is about.

@Arxagelos
Nah it’s just fabricated outrage. Can make that sort of coverage about a lot of things. The press point the finger at something blowing it out of proportion and it becomes a huge dark spot amplifying some slightly annoyed feeling about nothingness.
Instead of properly covering Bitsummit and make people happy with positivity you know. 🤷🏻

Re: We're Sure Fans Will Be Rational Over This The Last of Us PS5 Clip

JJ2

You know what. Now we’ve finally managed to get absolutely rubbish discussion even for the first game and that is truly a shame. No I’m not calling it part one it’s bs.
As far as I’m concerned I’m not bothered if I see an expensive cake in a shop while I have the same at home for free just without the cherry.
‘How dare they force me buy it?’ lalala
PS gamers Don’t need it. Full stop. Even for £1
PC gamers sure.
This has turned into a continuous and media encouraged fake outrage because why not. 🎻

Re: Sony Sounds Shook by Xbox's Activision Buyout, Says Call of Duty Has No Rival

JJ2

PlayStation Brazil is cool but even if whatever that somebody translation from Resetera says is somewhat accurate Brazil has nothing to do with PlayStation WW market. This is blown out of proportion and gullible people and console warriors running with it. 😅
Like this is coming from Jack Ryan mouth or something. Wake up people haha
‘SONY is Terrified’ 🙄

Re: Sony Sounds Shook by Xbox's Activision Buyout, Says Call of Duty Has No Rival

JJ2

I’m very sceptical about all this. Not saying it’s false but I would not take ‘Sony says, Sony believes’ etc. (translated with Google by a Reseterara to boot) as some serious source of info or undeniable facts.
Mr and Mrs Sony (and family in Brazil) genuinely answered a questionnaire apparently. Whatever. 😅😀
I’m curious to learn what Sony family in China said to Google translate 🤔

Re: Sony Discontinuing PS5 Accolades As No One Used Them

JJ2

For a minute I thought they were stopping these commercial accolade trailers publishers do rewarding the sites giving their games a good ‘score’.
Oh well. The ‘industry’ wouldn’t stop their vested full circle auto promotion 😅

Re: The PS5 Stock Situation Finally Seems to Be Improving

JJ2

I mean just common sense (and decent information) tells you the production just started to improve and will go up in the next few months while demand is at least as strong and snowballing too as a consequence.
People pointlessly pushing narratives are funny 🙄😅

Re: Rumour: Star Wars: KOTOR Remake Hit with Huge Delay

JJ2

@Milktastrophe
Yes I see what you mean but the report is contradicting. I and probably most people never expected this for this year. It’s absurd. In the best expectation it would be 2023 but I think reasonable people saw it coming 2024/2025 from the (short CG) announcement. They always said, even still in the Spring they were saying it, it’s a huge game that would take a long time and effort to make.
The devs saying it was on track (releasing this year) just sounds absurd.
I think Jason got some legit info but as often he shook them in a salt and pepper bag to deliver a ‘report’ that he might later blame readers again for ‘blowing it out of proportion’.

Re: Rumour: Star Wars: KOTOR Remake Hit with Huge Delay

‘On June 30, Aspyr finalized a demo of the game, known as a vertical slice, to show to production partners Lucasfilm Ltd. LLC and Sony Group Corp. The developers were excited about it and felt like they were on track, according to a person familiar with the project, so they were shocked by what happened next.

At the outset of development, Aspyr told staff and partners it would release the game by the end of 2022, according to two people familiar with production. Developers said a more realistic target now would be 2025.’

It doesn’t make any sense.
The game has been in development for 3 years.

Re: The Last of Us: Part I's Emotional Intro on PS5 Has Leaked

JJ2

About the people going on and on with buzzwords like ‘cAsH gRaB’. I mean it’s a non needed product alright like there are so many. It’s just as ridiculous to moan about it on and on as it would be to go in GOWR overpriced special hammer collector whatever they call it and have a tantrum about it 🤷🏼‍♂️

Re: The Last of Us: Part I's Emotional Intro on PS5 Has Leaked

JJ2

Purely talking about the graphics I feel it’s one of the cases where more is less (I don’t like using silly cliche but it sounds right here).
Tess and Sarah characters are more detailed but paradoxically it seems they had more personality in the original where they were better looking and more impactful. That’s just my impression looking at it.

Re: Rumour: God of War Ragnarok Had Starfield's Old Release Date Before Being Moved at the Last Minute

JJ2

@IOI
Your definitely right that would frustrate some weirdos and we already see it in the comments even with a different date. 🤷🏼‍♂️👀
However Sony usually couldn’t care less what Ms does regarding games releases and they aren’t wrong considering the lack of.
11/11/22 was a cool date and I don’t see why anyone should feel weird if it that was the launch. Something surely out of context happened and not related the competition. (No I don’t think it was because Spencer’s sending weird pics).
Whatever. The wind that blows is all that anybody knows 😅

Re: Poll: What PS Stars Rewards Do You Want?

JJ2

I mean why wouldn’t you ?
I don’t get it.
It’s only for trophies that I wouldn’t change the way I play just for this. It’s all about enjoyment that you spend time and money for not the other way round. Otherwise if it isn’t intrusive then it’s a no brainer.
