Build an entire town only to watch it get literally nuked by someone called XxX420N00Bf00kkaXxX who then proceeds to question your parentage while you wonder why you spent 50 quid on yet another bugridden craptacular.
Ellie's sexuality was nothing new. Any fan of the series knows she's gay, and anyone who is upset about that really needs their head checking. A fictional characters sexual preferences are really nothing for people to worry about. Well done to ND for creating characters you actually care about.
Anyway, with that said they need to forget this format ever happened and never do it again. The punchable pundits dragging on for what seemed like an hour were unforgivable, and that pillock with the flute needs to turn it in an all. Dreams being relegated to bumpers when it REALLY needs a demo explaining it further was absurd, and the death stranding trailer was baffling in a bad way. Seriously, tiny reedus in the vast land? That's what they were excited about? Terrible.
Brilliant trailer far as I'm concerned.
Every other site seems hyped for it too
Lovely graphics, nice subject matter.
Love it or hate it, I think it'll sell.
Everyone I've spoke to seems excited.
No hate from me for once.
Don't know why people are saying this was poor.
Android Wilson will just walk onstage and talk to Peter Beardsley for three hours, then show a three minute sizzle reel of actual games while standing on a sports car which cost SEVEN MILLION POUNDS. That or they'll make some smartarse reference to how badly they Donald Ducked it with the lootboxes, seemingly in apology so we're all "OH HAI GUISE WERE HUMAN TOO YA KNOW. LOVE THEM GAMES AND THAT".
Honestly, it'll be the usual Ertha Kitt show but we're going to watch it anyway.
Played JC3 for a few hours after getting it free on plus. No fun at all and absolutely crippled by a needless online component which caused the load times to drag even more.
Like the idea of this. I'm a big fan of robots, decades, and Sweden so this ticks all the boxes. If there's robots called Bumbleswede, Starsven, or Bjoptimus Prime I'm deffo in. Day one! Day one I say!
I dunno man, I just can't get hyped for this. It looks like a fine game and all, but I just cannot muster any enthusiasm for it. Maybe it's the biker aspect or something.
@RevengeFan any time spent on sports games is too much. It should have its own event. Like a nintendo treehouse. They could call it "sports trough" and make it all nice and brightly coloured so the people who only play FIFA can keep up.
See I'd actually watch this even though I've zero interest in sports. Amazing idea, and imagine what it would be like with other events. Boxing, WWE, concerts.... It's a shame more isn't being done with VR as it's got a lot of potential outside games.
Trials fusion looks fun but xcom just doesn't do much for me. Hated the first one I played on the PS3 and people were saying it was amazing, so it's probably just me on that one.
@Neolit I thought it was already playable on psvr? If not then I'm with you on that one. Makes sense. Huge user base (compared to other vr) and they've already done it with Skyrim and doom.
@get2sammyb "are we going to have to endure a decade of the scousers banging on about how they won the Champions League again?"
As a scouser who hates football, I am going to be gutted if they win. I really could do without the crap that goes along with a big win, and reduces the city to a standstill. Saying that, I'm off to see Deadpool later in what's likely to be an empty cinema. Swings and roundabouts really.
Best of the four souls games (not counting Bloodborne) by a mile for me. Nothing has come close to seeing Anor Londo for the first time, or finally beating O&S. The cheese in darkroot basin for getting more xp, the heartbreaking battle with a certain pet, finding the entrance to a certain lake and one of the most staggering areas in the game, meeting Havel, the absolute terror of being invaded while exploring an unfamiliar area.... Must say I'm almost jealous of those who've never played it. Can't wait til Friday!
It sounds good but I'm still not sure it's going to do well. It's one thing to give complete creative control to users, but it's getting users who will take advantage of that control.
Six months down the line, are people still going to spend tens of hours at a time making these experiences?
Even more important, will we have a glut of UPVOTE THIS LEVEL PLZ 4 FREE PSN CODES or spam levels made in 10 mins by some kid trying to pimp out his Instagram?
This has potential, but it has an awful lot of the wrong kind of potential.
I left a precariously placed model of a stable on top of my PS4 for my tiny horses. Came home today, still standing. That stable remains stable thanks to the stable of stability updates from Sony. Thanks Bois.
I use the platinum headset. It gets flaky when pairing at first with the dongle but once it's on its the nuts. 3d audio is boss! Apart from that the Nacon Revolution controller is a huge step up over the dual shock 4. Especially for shooters. The d pad isn't amazing but the paddles are a big plus and the sticks are really nice.
@Ypmud yeah we'll get an evening arranged. I've missed playing with people from here tbh. Scott doesn't have the game anymore so haven't played with him in ages.
I cannot seem to muster any enthusiasm for this. I think it's the setting and premise. Biker nonsense I just find cringe worthy (having known real bikers. One of whom referred to his bike as a "steel horse" without a hint of irony), and zombies were overdone 5 years ago.
It just doesn't look fun at all.
Sorry, Chad Strengthface, but it's a hard pass from me.
Played a bit today. When I picked up house if wolves I remember sinking about 8 hours in on the same day. I got bored with this after about an hour. Destiny used to be my favourite game, now it's like going back to an old girlfriend who you forgot was a bit of a nightmare.
It's a shame, as I quite like the spectacle of the pressers. Maybe they don't have anything new to show? Hopefully the mystery around Bloodborne 2 will be solved

Apart from that it ran the gauntlet from "don't care' to "personally I detest it".

It was a really good conference. It's good to hear that Xbox is improving. They're far from done but hopefully it continues.

@ArkhamKnerd you should absolutely play the old blood. Great little spinoff.
I can't wait for this. The Wolfenstein series has become one of my favourite shooters.

Re: E3 2018: Tetris Effect Brings a Trippy Take on a Classic to PS4, PSVR
@Porco mate I'm basically blind without my glasses anyway. Three decades of gaming have nothing to do with it. I've just got an odd skull.

@FullbringIchigo perfect.
Re: E3 2018: Tetris Effect Brings a Trippy Take on a Classic to PS4, PSVR
I'm enjoying the live chat and comments. So much salt on both sides.

I'll stick to my Gameboy for Tetris. Bit of a strange thing having this much buildup to announce a rehash of a 30 odd year old game....

Re: New Weekend Deals Hit European PlayStation Store
@Rgeneb1 not sure about the deluxe but the main game is one of the best shooters of recent memory. Highly recommended.

Anyway I'll be playing a lot of dark souls remastered this weekend. The fiancée is away watching Steps (I know.) So I've got the house to myself, snacks and beer.

Re: New Licensed Pro PS4 Controller Announced - Why Doesn't Sony Just Make One?
@get2sammyb tbh I've used both types extensively and have to say I prefer the staggered analog sticks. More comfortable for my freakishly large paws.

Re: Soapbox: Why Ghost of Tsushima Could Win E3 2018

Re: Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon Brings 8-Bit Action to PS4, PS Vita on 24th May
Switch is a good console with some drawbacks.
PS4 is a good console with some drawbacks.
Xbone is a good console with some drawbacks.
There we go. That's all you need to be aware of.
Now on topic this looks like a blast! I used to love the old NES castlevania games so I'll definitely be picking this up.

@ShogunRok well I'd be up for that. Playing destiny with friends is still more than worth it.
