Re: The Uncharted Movie Trailer Is Finally Here

Johnnycide

Look, I'm gonna say it. Mark Whalberg can't act. He's the same gormless titamaboob in every film, just sometimes with a comedy accent (the Departed). He went to the Vatican to apologise for being in boogie Nights, the one film he was good in, and that was due to him playing an idiot.

Let's also remember that he refused to apologise for a hate crime in which he blinded a Vietnamese man. He's a hack, he's a scumbag, and I have no idea why he still gets cast.

Tom Holland? Love him. Great actor, probably my favourite Spiderman, and seems like a really good person. Totally miscast as Drake, but that's not on him.

Re: Cyberpunk 2077, The Witcher 3 PS5 Versions Delayed into 2022

@trev666 Came here to say pretty much the same. I've had a few crashes and smaller bugs, and there's a fair bit of jank, but on PS4 pro it's no worse than fallout 4. I'm actually on my second playthrough of cyberpunk right now. It's a shame as the potential was through the roof, but I'm still enjoying it.

Re: Talking Point: Was Gamescom Opening Night Live Any Good?

Johnnycide

@Smash41 you're right. I've been feeling this for a while now, but it just seems that everything is either online multiplayer, yearly iterations, or stuff I'm just plain not interested in. It's got to the point where I haven't bought a PS5 yet as there's just nothing I can be bothered playing on it.

@Pheap82 not big on irony, huh?

@themcnoisy I'm sure it's a boss game mate, I actually gave it a go but couldn't get my head around it. I just remember everyone going mental when that and farming simulator were given out in the same month.

Re: Season Brings a Stunning Art Style and Different Cultures to PS5

Johnnycide

(Cont) find that elsewhere. If I want a title with emotional investment then I can absolutely find that in other places. The fact is, this game seems like it wants me to apologize to it before playing, and I don't like that. Therfore, yeah. I want it to fail. There are much more engaging and more exciting titles on the way. I don't need this game at all.

Re: Season Brings a Stunning Art Style and Different Cultures to PS5

@Flaming_Kaiser I get where you're coming from with that. I really do. Thing is, Gone Home came from nowhere and had something to say. I played it myself on the PC and yeah, it's great. It was also trying to break new ground for LGBTQ+ representation and by god that is absolutely to be applauded. I'm not a fan of CoD or FIFA or any other nonsense. Some of my absolute favourite experiences on PlayStation have been the likes of Journey, Nier Automata, The Binding of Isaac, Nuclear Throne, Soulsborne, Hotline Miami, TLOU2, Axiom Verge, Undertale (which is my favourite game of last gen btw) and a ton of others which aren't exactly AAA.
The thing with this game is that it seems designed to be criticism proof. If you don't like it, you either don't "get it" or you're some kind of thoughtless sheep conditioned to only play yearly franchises. I get that's where you've come from. I really do, but this seems to be so transparently put together by people who want to tick boxes and appear progressive and worthy that it just rings incredibly hollow. If I want an engaging open world I can find so many elsewhere which don't seem to want me to kotow to the Devs. If I want a meditative and quiet piece of gameplay I can find it elsewhere in a more engaging title. If I want something next gen I can lose myself i

Re: Round Up: What Was Announced at The Game Awards 2020?

Johnnycide

Crimson Desert, Nier, Left4Dead and maybe one or two others were looking good. The rest of it was just utter dreck.

Did anyone else notice that all of the nominees for most anticipated game were single player story driven games? Every single one.

So it's sad that all we're getting is indies, pc ports, godawful multiplayer and live service battle royale garbage.

Re: Evil Dead: The Game Revs Its Chainsaw on PS5, PS4 Next Year

Johnnycide

Why?!?!?!? The first few hours of resident evil vii showed that an incredible evil dead style game is possible in first person or VR. They had exactly the right approach given to them and chose to give us this... Muck instead. There's already so many of these cheap and nasty games out there already, why insult one of the greatest horror franchises of all time in this way?

Re: Could Travis Scott Get His Own PS5 Game and Limited Edition Console?

Johnnycide

Ok... Seeing as this fella is absolutely massive and for better or worse, young people (as in under thirty. Yes. I'm old) care what he thinks, this is a good move by Sony.

I'm not that keen on his music even though I do like a lot of hip hop, and I'm not really the right demographic, but calling the man a tool or a nobody is just daft.

It's the kind of gatekeeping nonsense which feeds the horrible "gamers rise up" stereotype. Come on lads, let's keep our heads on here.

Re: PS Plus December 2020 PS5, PS4 Games Announced

Johnnycide

@Ken_Kaniff you mean Rocket Arena?

Yeah. That looks like the most cynical, hackneyed, vile, DOA, Fortnite knock off I've seen in a while.

JC4- meh. 3 was boring so I've no urge to play this.

Worms- yeah. It's Worms. Yawn.

Well I suppose it's not that Cities Skylines month!

Re: Reaction: PS5's User Experience Is Made for Modern Games

Johnnycide

Being able to look up a walkthrough without HEY ITS YA BOI SAMURAIPIMP420 BEFORE YOU GET THE LOCATIONS YOU NEED ID LIKE TO TAKE A MINUTE TO TALK ABOUT RAIDY SHADY THE DARK FANTASY MONEY GRAB AND DONT FORGET TO SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON AND JOIN MY NOTIFICATION SQUAD OH HEY THE OTHER DAY I DROPPED YET ANOTHER MUMBLE RAP TUNE ON SOUNDCLOUD WHICH MADE MY PARENTS WISH THEYD NEVER MET AND ALSO DO YOU LIKE THESE RAYCON HEADPHONES THEY WERE MADE BY A SPORTS GUY SO YOU KNOW THEYRE QUALITY OK SO BEFORE I TELL YOU WHERE THE CHEST IS LET ME JUST READ A FEW OF YOUR COMMENTS ***ad starts playing with sickening millennials talking about clothes**

So there's that. That's a good thing. If it forces these YouTubers back into their holes I'll be elated.

Re: PS5 UI Revealed in New State of Play Presentation

Johnnycide

At the risk of sounding like an old man..... I just want to play games. They said in the presentation that they want to remove barriers to gameplay, but I really don't want notifications, picture in picture of my friend's games, news stories and what are basically ads popping up everywhere. It's just all too much and I would hate to play something like GoW with all this going on.

Oh and Destruction All-stars still looks like a binbag full of chod.

Re: Marvel's Avengers - Crystal Dynamics' Heroic Risk Is a Game of Two Halves

Johnnycide

I was on the fence about picking this up as I'd heard the single player is really good, but I just don't like the look of Kamala as a character. I mean, being stretchy? It's like buying infamous and having to play half the game as Delsin's friend who has the unique power of long arms.

It's a game about the avengers, I want to play as them not focus on some unknown fangirl, no matter how well done it is.
