@Deadsea93 I will be sooo disappointed if Call Of Duty is still relevant in 10 years. That'll mean there has literally been a CoD release every year for 25 years. Thats not even counting the remakes, spin-offs and DLC. When will it end?
@QuietintheCorner According to NicheGamer he was basically anti-forced-vaccination and anti-lockdown. So he was just fired on the spot. Ridiculous in my opinion regardless of your political standing
Picked up Monster Hunter Rise + Sunbreak and will likely make use of the free multiplayer weekend. Let's see if it can finally dethrone Monster Hunter Freedom Unite as the best one π
Good. Weird that games as big as Alan Wake 2 and Baldurs Gate skipped physical, yet this one has the option. Maybe their analytics suggest without physical people are forced to buy digital and their profit margin is higher. But for me I just don't buy it altogether π€·ββοΈ
I feel like I can wait for this one. Felt a bit burned by Persona 5 Royal, especially when there was no option to upgrade from the original and you had to buy it again for PS5
It was...okay. It had some alright stuff but a lot of filler and free-to-play rubbish. Also I could do without seeing these Call of Duty trailers every single year. They're all the same.
Is Overwatch 2 the worst game on steam? Not even close. Is it a soulless cash-grab that delivered on none of the promises they made, created by an increasingly more shameless and predatory company? absolutely
The first were great, I actually platted them both. I'll pick these up if they're different enough, always interested in more Harry Potter stuff if it's done right
@GamingFan4Lyf The "gamer expectations" were a self fulfilling prophecy. Nobody asked Square Enix to remaster Tomb Raider with fancy new hair physics, nor for Ellie in The Last of Us 2 to have realistic dilating pupils, or any of the mad details in Red Dead Redemption 2. But once developers set a precedent people expect it.
Also, a lot of the biggest breakout successes look like trash, by comparison. Minecraft, PUBG, Battlebit Remastered, Valheim ect. And Nintendo release games that look like they're from the PS3 era sooo...

Re: Apple Insinuates iPhone 15 Pro Will Be a Better Games Console Than PS5, PS4

Re: UK Regulator 'Still Stands' by Decision to Block Xbox's $69 Billion Activision Blizzard Buyout
@GamingFan4Lyf Fair point, although I was being hyperbolic and referring to PUBG mainly, which was (is?) as janky as they come.

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for July 2023 Leaked Early
