@Max_the_German That's exactly what I was wondering, but MH Wilds will be there. Them MH folks be crazy.

@Yousef- this is not to be mean, but I am anticipating DW for morbid curiosity's sake. I've always genuinely despised the series, but then 9 came out and crossed over into parody, so I sincerely hope this one is just as terrible for my own purposes. If it's rad and makes fans happy, that's just as good....I guess.
I HOPE IT TELLS THE TALE OF THE YELLOW TURBAN REBELLI-see even the old jokes are tiring.

@MrPeanutbutterz I enjoyed what I played well enough. The characters were pretty cringe inducing, but I actually quit because of the bike. I ended up miles from where I could fuel up, and would have had to walk the bike back miles to keep going at any kind of decent rate. I still had Tsushima to start and just noped out and went to that instead.

I love the Fist of the North Star entry, at least what I've played. The other games talk too much for me. This looks like exactly my kind of dumb though..

@AhmadSumadi It was one of the biggest sequel let downs of all time, imo. Up there with Turok: Evolution, Earthworm Jim 3D, and Star Fox Zero.

@get2sammyb Litigiry Puff?

@MrPeanutbutterz Hmmm I don't know, I thought it was a fine game. It just had terrible characters I didn't want to spend time with.

The game is already gorgeous and runs at 60, what in the world are they doing? Just leave it alone.
...okay, maybe make it a better actual GAME, but it looks fine.

I really want it, but I there's just been too much lately. Marvel, Shadow of the Ninja Reborn, Astro Bot, Zelda is inbound...

@Victor_Meldrew This. Zero Dawn on PS5 runs and looks absolutely incredible. GoT needs for nothing. It's still a showstopper.
I'm predicting that Sony will start locking 60 fps behind a Pro wall. Like a potential Bloodborne port, etc.

@AhmadSumadi Pretty sure Cassandra was introduced in DA2. Maybe the only thing I remember about that game...
Edit: I lied. I also remember that I was concerned about Bioware because they said something like "push a button, and cool sh*t happens!"

It just came off incredibly generic for me.

Free to play so nope.

I'll get that if it's 60fps. I've been hoping they'd do that.

@naruball yup. Especially when the same folks contort into pretzels doing mental gymnastics to defend actual censorship from the publishers of Wukong.

@UntilRespawn I'm sorry. Even I'm embarrassed by this sh*tpost. I have a rep to uphold.

Oh darn. I was hoping this Ghibli inspired game wouldn't have trophies. Guess we can all still pray for an exclusive LRG release.

I was ready to enjoy this game, but it fell flat for me. I'm sure a lot of folks will find it ridiculous, but most games with enemies that just spawn into arenas don't work for me. I really miss lived-in levels and corpse-stay.

@Jacko11 Huh? I was just relating my experience because your avatar made me remember something and chuckle about it.

@Jacko11 is your avatar John Days Gone hitching a ride with HBO's Last of Us? Is it because he ran out of gas? That's actually why I stopped playing, lol. I ran out of gas in an area crawling with freakazoids and had to walk my bike like a million miles to get fuel. So that's actually really accurate.

@nomither6 for my part, they are incredibly lazy and rarely look anything like the thing they are supposed to be a caricature of. To the extent that when a figure looks like the character, it no longer looks like a Funko Pop. The iconography is backwards.

The only thing Funko Pop related that has ever brought me joy was Jeff Gerstmann saying GameStop went "from Funcoland to Funko Land."

Yes. I'm pretty sure everyone that plays anything PlayStation is incredibly happy to be receiving a weird game like The Plucky Squire, day one, and a few other bizzaro PS2 games. I think it's exactly what most of us want.
Edit: this sounded sarcastic. I wasn't being sarcastic.

@mariomaster96 weird PlayStation version update story: I got a Vita copy of Retro City Rampage, and it came with cross-buy (remember that?) for PS4. The DX version was a free and automatic upgrade, because life was better then. Anyhoo, my copy wouldn't update on PS4, so I contacted Sony customer service. They tried but failed. Finally, I emailed VBlank, and asked what was going on. Brian Provinciano (the dude what made that game) explained that the Vita version was the only one that would not automatically update, and since my PS4 version came from there, it would not update either. Then he asked me for a good shipping address to send me a free PS4 copy. What a champ. I ended up buying the game on multiple platforms just cause that was so awesome of him.

So let's speculate: Will Sony hold Bloodborne etc 60fps performance behind a Pro upgrade?

@astro911 Starbreeze was an original, for sure. I wish they'd do more interesting stuff as Machinegames.

X-Men Vs Street Fighter etc and Astro Bot. The MVC collection is a dream come true.

@Daleaf just up to the mountains, in Colorado. It's only three days, but three much needed. We don't really plan our vacations. We kind of just go and eat good food and have lots of sex.

I folded. Had to get the digital version. Guess I am spending $100 on this damned game.
...worth it.

@somnambulance Tobal and Tobal 2, please. Steambot Chronicles, too.

@REAVERZINE I don't think anyone would be happy if they announced that MVC3 or SFIV was being released, but the base versions.

@Daleaf I'm very much looking forward to going away with my wife for a few days coming up. It's much needed. Comes up the day after Zelda hits. Going to be a good one.

@Diowine Shrug.
My kids play a ton of harder games and some easy stuff as well. The whole "snowflake" thing is just more culture war nonsense meant to divide people. Big strong manly men worried about the sanctity of Disney Princesses and Star Wars (to be redundant).

I haven't found anything I don't like about it. It's bizarre and joyous, like the best of Nintendo and PS1 era Sony. That happens to be my favorite kind of game!

@MrPeanutbutterz Death sprint 66?

@MrPeanutbutterz Racing Transformed is nearly perfect. It's like the Smash Bros of Sega games. It just needs some dicey shortcuts.
You know your racers, so I imagine you have heard of Deathsprint 66? It's an original from Sumo. Looks nuts.

@DonJorginho I don't know or really care to know the context of this gif...but I bet thirty nine broadcasters were screaming in excitement in seventy different languages as they replayed this 100 times.

Thing about these always online games is that the tone is aimed squarely at the terminally online. We either end up with "How do you do, fellow kids," or something rocking a fedora. Or something that THINKS it is rocking that fedora. Or maybe no fedora...but it's still got that fed-aura.

I'd rather have a Dark Universe shirt, if we are gonna go for that "embarrassing failure" rizz.

@Almost_Ghostly I miss Treasure.

I really hope it doesn't have trophies. No reason. I just hope it doesn't have any.

So, hubris, plainly. The next Switch is going to put the diminishing returns of graphical fidelity in really harsh light, and Sony is making the most predictable moves right now. It's not going to go well for Sony.

@Kienda I think because it is not called MGS3: Delta. Just MGS Delta.
Imagine if all those MGS: Survive players got confused.

I had to prioritize other releases after getting a Portal and Astro Bot. We still have Zelda and Mahvel coming out.
But yeah I'm hyped for it.
...just not Mahvel or Zelda hype.

Just wanted to say I appreciate the writers here. Thanks.

It is too much for me! As I've said, I play on a Portal now, so the returns would just be too low with streaming. The kids play on the TV, but they are fine with the standard PS5. People want to spend that much, feel free. I just won't be on board for a while.

This conference or whatever was so apple it hurt. Dual Sense Pros will have glass backing, lol.

Considering I play on the Portal and the kids play in front of the TV, not really worth it. The Portal would be compromised because it is streaming, and the kids don't exactly care about bleeding edge tech. I'm not saying it's pointless. If I was single with way too much money again, yeah, I'd buy one. No use for it here.

I'm more of a IX guy. Not a fan of the character designs in VIII.

@AhmadSumadi you came to leave a sh*tpost about people who are actually talking about the article, like usual.
