@ButterySmooth30FPS I was a manager at a Game crazy in VA when San Andreas launched. We had to put up a sign that said "we won't honor returns based on your racism" because so many tried to return the game based on their racism.

You guys know who a publisher might hire to screen for things like the one-legged torii gate? Sweet Baby Inc. People are hilarious.

@Yousef- sure! THIS will be the Sonic they spend time on. This will be the good one!

It will be interesting to see how much of it is reskinned content, and how much Sonic fans excuse that reskinned content.

@AdamNovice Yes. As in it already does...

How about "No, I don't play live service games "
Anyway, I mean I hope for the best? With Guerilla's luck they'll drop it adjacent to Fortnite 2.
I just don't see it popping off.

@DellMibbler "Most of my peers" being veteran friends (mostly veteran ex friends since ohhhhhhhhhhhh Nov 2016 or so) and people from Virginia, where I grew up. The ones I referred to that had "never left home."

I'm still waiting. I like the atmosphere enough. Just more like $30 enough. Seems it still needs a whole lot of work.

@DennisReynolds I can still play MKIX on my Vita or PS3/5. You won't be able to say that about 1 in a few years. Honestly, could be sooner. This price is extortionate and NRS is in hot water already. Bad signs when it's a WB studio.

MK is just an online service. Remember, all of this is disposable to WB. Spend accordingly.

@MrPeanutbutterz it definitely doesn't do that.

@nessisonett the Stanford in California, USA?
Anyway, I'd say "don't lump all Americans together," but I've lived all over the world, and most of my peers in the USA have never left where they grew up. Most of them think anything left of hunting the poor for sport is socialist, so I get what you mean.

@astro911 yet another person requesting more publishers to use firms like Sweet Baby Inc to scan their art for "offensive materials." Wow! That's an interesting side effect! Very progressive of you guys!

You know who a company like Ubisoft would hire to catch things like the one-legged gate? Sweet Baby Inc. You absolute troglodytes.

You what's really, really funny to me? You know who these publishers would hire to screen for things like the one legged gate? Sweet Baby.
So stfu.

@naruball Baldurs Gate 3 too. Heard that was a pretty well received game...

@torquex you right, you right. I didn't play Valhalla, I just heard it was super long and boring.

@Gabrielmpf Ubisoft putting people in games that aren't white dudes.
... nefarious.

That's predictable, innit? Wish everyone would just chill and enjoy games. I'm not missing out on this one. SP are amazing

8k, for those of you with 120 inch TVs from the future.

@Jill_Sandwich we did that too, lol. Have fun.

Obscene how hard they worked on this. It actually made me buy turtles comics and watch some recent stuff.

@torquex you'd have to work really hard to offend me, and my "capiche" comment was a Simpsons reference, lol.

@Arisen sorry, eh, who was in Constantinople in AC? Which totally accurate hero went there? Way to pick the most ironic example.
And if you think History Channel has anything to say about history, you probably believe Ancient Aliens made the first pyramids or some shiz.
The pic I went with was of a black woman jarl in the show, Vikings. The jarl she is representing was a white dude irl.
Dont care, just sayin'.

@torquex all besides the "capiche" part...

@torquex yeesh. How embarrassing.
Just out of curiosity, by "Japs," do you mean "Japanese?" It wasn't clear.
You should clarify.

@UntilRespawn "Historical fiction." Like when Da Vinci made a wooden tank in AC Brotherhood or whatever. Or when Aliens happened. Or the magic apple you fight the Pope over.

@Bigmanfan Same. The only passable AC to me was Origins, and even that was way too long. It's funny that so many fans of the series don't even get that the setting is a desparation move. Japan was always the "break glass in case of emergency" setting. They even tried a "classic" (which, to me, just means "awful") AC game in Mirage. They're desparate.
There's definitely a term out there for people that have no actual convictions, so they get hyper vigilant about things like this. They never yelled about a white dude in Nioh etc. They'd be the first to yell back at anyone upset w a white dude in Nioh. It's performative.

Previews have been crazy positive but I'm much more excited for Avowed.

I was pretty happy to see a couple of bizarre games, great remasters, and a huge reveal!

@AhmadSumadi okay, bet.

@TheElectroFunky a modest graphics update like TR for Soul Reaver would be so fun to see. Hope that's really happening. I think people are forgetting how ambitious that game was.

I'm fine with the Tomb Raider treatment. I think the first game is still just wonderful.

That's only a good thing. Glad people were loud about it.

I'm not expecting anything here. I'll watch the Jeff Gerstmann and Nextlander streams, if they do them. Hoping for the best.

It's a little too miserable for me, and I can't stand snowy settings (I know, weird), but I'm happy for the devs.

Its a playfully dark 3D platformer on PS5 w Warren Spector directing. I'll play that. I missed it on Wii.

@Steel76 I don't think anyone here is saying that PSN is a good or necessary service. It's like going on Yelp and saying "I didn't eat the pork chop because meat is murder, but it's terrible." It's like...this ain't the place for your cause. I keep hearing that games are not the place for a dev's "activism" when there might be a lady in a game. That's right! Metacritic and Steam are the place for activism!

I don't play any game that requires me to be online or games with excessive micro-transactions. I don't then go and review the game. Because that would be asinine and my review would be worthless.
I don't care about the game's scores or the success of Ragnarok. It's just the cognitive dissonance here is hilarious. I wonder if the people saying this doesn't qualify as "bombing" even care if the reviewer has played a game. I bet a good amount of them believe a review is pointless unless the game is beaten by the writer.

I've gotten into a comfy place with The Outer Worlds. Never finished it so I'll keep up with that. So far, I only wish I had to work a little harder to earn companions, as every one of them has just jumped on the idea of joining my crew with little convincing. Then again...I probably would too if I were in that world. I'll throw on Shadow of the Ninja Reborn every now and then, too. Such an amazing remake.

@Titntin Seems so! Good work not "spreading negativity!" Byeeeeeeeeee

@Titntin Why would someone throw ammo? Is it because they are "dellusional?"
Pretty cowardly call out with the sub-tweet here related to another article.

@Titntin Yeah man, I don't know about that. Reeeeeeeally looks like you are looking to make someone a symbol of your irl frustrations on this Playstation enthusiast page. You can recognize exploitation and also recognize that it's just how reality works. I like all sorts of "problematic" entertainment. I think everyone does. It's not possible to be an honest consumer anymore.

@carlos82 They treat Jak and Daxter like R* treats the old GTAs. "Oh, you guys want those? Really??? Eh, here's some versions that run worse than the originals, I guess.
...did no one tell you that we are, like, AUTEURS now???"

It will definitely affect the future of Playstation. At least, it should. I'd say "go back to doing more bizarre games," but who would do those? Team Asobi can't do much more than make levels and easter eggs that reference the studios Sony has shuttered. I love Astro Bot to bits, but sometimes it is a bit of a grave dance.

@Yousef- Yeah I'm kidding...kind of. I hope mostly that it's great. I've always wanted to be a fan, but it never clicks. I hear that people say it's a great series to turn off your brain and be a super badass, but I never feel like I'm defeating an army single-handedly. Feels more like stepping on ants.

@MrPeanutbutterz It's funny about Horizon. It may be actually cursed, lol. Every time I start it, something else comes up that I want to play instead. And not just BotW and Elden Ring, lol. I think I might tackle that next as my big open world game. I just don't like to do more than one of those at a time and they have to really grab me.

Hey, PUBG money could've been used in a lot worse ways, I say.
