I'll be finishing up my professional playthrough of RE4 (original) on PS4. Lost track of the amount of times I've replayed this game, it's a classic for sure.
Other than that I've been eying up Ys VIII, which I played but never got too far. I want to give it a proper chance because I'm sure it's good.
@Kidfunkadelic83 Very true. Budgets are getting ridiculous. Sorry Sony, I never asked for realistic pupil dilation in Ellie's eyes for The Last of Us Part II 😆
@bowzoid True, I've always thought this. I remember when people were raving about games like Persona 4, 5 and Reload coming to Gamepass. But they're like 100+ hour games each, at what point is it better value to just buy one of them?
@Zuljaras The 3DS version is the best way to play Ocarina of time in my opinion. I really enjoyed it a while ago (but never finished it, I'm ashamed to say)
@Yorozayu No. They were promised "uncensored", and that is not what they got. You can spin it however you want, censorship is bad and we should let adults make their own decisions.
@SASnake Okay I'll bite. Why shouldn't "sad, lonely, horny anime loving gamers" get the game that was promised? Why does anything about the fanbase even matter? Why is gaming as an industry so scared of the dreaded "male-gaze" but a game with full frontal male nudity wins game of the year?
It's an overreaction but I don't blame those signing the petition. You can claim they're neckbeards or incels or whatever tired term you want, at the end of the day a mature rated game that claimed to be uncensored was censored.
Can Microsoft really claim credit for half of those games though? It's not like Call of Duty was a little indie game that flourished under their ownership
Every game should have a 60fps option now. I don't care if it dips slightly to 55 or whatever, but it should be the target in my opinion. I also care less and less about graphics as I get older
Its my birthday today so got my family coming round. Once I've shooed them away I'm going to chill with some Final Fantasy 8 or Rune Factory 4, which I picked up in the PSN sale. Happy weekend everyone!
I can't see anything in this game that suggests it can't run at 60fps. I think a performance mode should always be an option now. Personally I really don't care about grass textures that are very slightly sharper

@ralphdibny Back when mobile games were literally just games
Re: Best God of War Games
God of War 3 is my fave. Just an excellent action game that constantly throws awesome set pieces and bosses at the player.

Re: Monster Hunter Series Tops 100 Million Sales Milestone
Been playing Monster Hunter since the PSP (MHFU will never die). Enjoyed both World and Rise so happy to hear this
Re: Religious Indie Game INDIKA Handed Final PS5 Release Date of 17th May
I watched some footage of this game on twitch and its very bizarre. Kinda like if Wes Anderson made Resident Evil Village.

Re: EA Exploring 'Thoughtful Implementations' of In-Game Advertising
I think there might come a time when I just play retro games going forward. Modern gaming is so cynical sometimes it's exhausting
Re: Rumour: Ubisoft Is Going All-In on Assassin's Creed with Black Flag Remake, Another Remake, Co-op Multiplayer Games, and More
I wish I liked Assassins Creed, because if I did I'd have enough content for several lifetimes
Re: Mini Review: Crow Country (PS5) - Brilliant Retro Horror Wears Its Influences on Its Sleeve
Nice. There's been a lot of PS1 resi inspired horror games but very few are good. This one looks like the best one yet.
Also well done on at no point using the words "love letter" in this review 👍
Re: Media Molecule's New Project Is 'More of a Game Than a Creative Tool' Says Co-Founder
All they really need to do is make a fun, colourful platformer and I'll be happy

Re: Stellar Blade Is a Best-Seller in the UK After Launch PS5 Sales
Good to hear. Sony were smart to get behind this one, feels like a game from a different era (in all the best ways)
Re: Stellar Blade PS5 Fans Irate Over Alleged Censorship
@Yorozayu No. They were promised "uncensored", and that is not what they got. You can spin it however you want, censorship is bad and we should let adults make their own decisions.

Re: That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Is Coming to PS5, PS4 as an Action RPG
What a great title
Re: Stellar Blade (PS5) - A Stellar PS5 Debut Destined to Become a Fan Favourite
@B0udoir in what way is an 8/10 merely "decent" and in what way does it "fall flat"?
This is a ten point review scale...
Re: Stellar Blade (PS5) - A Stellar PS5 Debut Destined to Become a Fan Favourite
Awesome. Excited to pick it up one day
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 524
Hoping to start Final Fantasy 8 today after picking it up in the sale. Looking forward to finally giving it a proper chance.
Happy weekend all
Re: $70 Games Are Just a Phase, Believes Saber Interactive CEO
What annoys me is how $70 games suddenly equals £70 games in the UK. Even with the current weakness of the pound that is BS.
Re: It's 'Probably About Time' for a New Final Fantasy Tactics, Says Yoshi-P
Well the last proper one came out in 2007 so yeah I agree 😆
Re: Video: Our Favourite PS5 Games of 2024 So Far
@UltimateOtaku91 Still got SMTV to come too 😀
Re: Poll: How Much Do You Care About 60fps on PS5?
Every game should have a 60fps option now. I don't care if it dips slightly to 55 or whatever, but it should be the target in my opinion. I also care less and less about graphics as I get older

Re: Preview: Stellar Blade Is the PS5 Exclusive Enthusiasts Have Been Praying For
Heck yeah. If it was even half as good as it looks I was interested. Also nice to see an action game that isn't a "souls-like" for a change
Re: The Elder Scrolls Celebrates 30th Anniversary, Gives a Small Update on TES 6
This game was announced 6 years ago. I don't know what they were thinking
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Rise of the Ronin?
Nioh 1 and 2 were both awesome games, but I've never been quite as sold on this one. Maybe one day but no rush to pick it up right now
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Dragon's Dogma 2?
Didn't like the first one and this looks a heck of a lot like the first one again, so I'm going to pass. Some of the monsters look cool though
Re: Granblue Fantasy: Relink Patch Adds Microtransactions, New Quest
Boooooooo. They just can't help themselves can they? 😔
Re: Full Price Remake Persona 3 Reload Will Be 'Complete' with Episode Aigis DLC, Says Producer
Atlus are honestly pissing me off a bit these days so I'm not buying any of their stuff. Plenty of great JRPG alternatives right now
Re: UK Sales Charts: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Debuts at the Top, Helldivers 2 Holds Firm
Some legit good games doing well these days. It's nice to see
Re: Tekken 8 Patch 1.02 Out Now on PS5, Adds Cosmetics DLC Shop and Adjusts Characters
Adding microtransantions post launch is scummy af. It's not like they aren't already monetizing it with numerous season passes. Big L from Namco here
Re: Xbox Games Hi-Fi Rush, Sea of Thieves, Pentiment, Grounded All Confirmed for PS5, PS4
@JPEGMakima That's just classic Phil Spencer. The guy talks in riddles and rarely says anything definite. He'd make a great Dungeon Master
Re: Xbox Games Hi-Fi Rush, Sea of Thieves, Pentiment, Grounded All Confirmed for PS5, PS4
Gimme the Master Chief Collection Phil, come on now stop messing about 😀

I'm down for this 🤞
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 516
I've been enjoying the original FF7 on PS4. Never actually completed it before but I'm nearing the end now. It's still a great game 27 years later
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Skull and Bones?
Of course I'm not. It looks terrible. I watched some footage and it looks like someone put "Ubisoft game" into an AI generator
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Will Have an Uncapped Frame Rate on PS5
I can't see anything in this game that suggests it can't run at 60fps. I think a performance mode should always be an option now. Personally I really don't care about grass textures that are very slightly sharper
Re: Readers Vote Gears of War Above Halo as Their Most Wanted Xbox Series on PlayStation
@AndyKazama I voted for Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon 😁
There are dozens of us! Dozens!
Re: Helldivers 2 Pre-Orders Are Big on PS5, PC, Currently Outselling Palworld in US
Really rooting for this game. I think we need more games like this and the £35 price tag doesn't hurt either
Re: Recent Steam Concurrent Player Data Suggests Japanese Games Are Thriving
Happy to see Granblue Fantasy doing well
Re: Third-Person View Makes Helldivers 2 More Immersive, Better Game Feel
Sounds like it has everything that made Helldivers great (besides local co-op RIP), so I'm not against the change 👍
