Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Becomes the Second Highest-Rated Final Fantasy Game of All Time

Martijn87

@NotSoCryptic i didn't enjoy FF9 back when it first released. I just recently got to complete and enjoyed it al lot more this time. I did however love 7 and 8 and completed those 100% multiple times.

The strength of 7 has always been it characters and how they interact with each other. It strengthens the big moments in the story, I still feel the haven't matched that in any of the other FF games. The world of VII is also amazing and full of lore, especially if you count the compilation with it, the story of the original was always a mixed bag for me personally, it had it highest but near the end it lost it. So remake was great for me, especially a second playthrough after it sinked in that it will be different going forwards, but that's fine by me cause as I said before the characters and world is what made 7 the best for me with VIII being close.

Re: Sony Slashes PS5 Forecast to 21 Million for Fiscal Year

@ED_209 this financial year ends march 31 2024, not in 14 months. I expect they wait for announcements after the inevitable Nintendo direct that announces the next console. Seeing Nintendo is the biggest competition they might want to take as much thunder away from that.

Re: Foamstars (PS5) - PS Plus' Sudsy Shooter Is Good, Clean Fun

@XboxistheBestBox it's funny that Xbox fanboys always try to bash on the last of us and uncharted about the gameplay. Play any Xbox game and it's a soulless copy paste game of games from the past. Same goes for alot of playstation and Nintendo games for that matter. Just because the gameplay is simple doesn't make a game bad.

@lightningbolt79 Spatoon is fun to play, but sorry to say, Splatoon 3 is a mess. Can't count the times anymore that I game stopped because someone went out or lost connection. It's not like Nintendo are gods or anything with their games like most claim. It's great ti see some competition in this genre.

Re: Insomniac Devs Forced to Speak Out Against Social Media Abuse Over the Lack of Spider-Man 2 Updates

When it started Social media was a way to connect with each other, and yes socialise. I recent years it makes people less social to each other. It also doesn't help that certain world leaders and other persons in power it as a weapon to get people worked up.

It's a shame it became this toxic among gamers. I have gaming as a hobby because I enjoy it, to do alone, with friends or with strangers around the world because it is supposed to be a relaxing fun experience. I'm glad I experienced gaming in the 90's and early 00's, such a simpler time. You were just happy with the games that came out. Developers weren't herassed 24/7 because you didn't like s feature or wanted more.

Martijn87

How to make the most money out of one game, and only make it once in 2024:

Step 1: think of the game
Step 2: think of DLC
Step 3: make the game with enough plot points to valid a DLC.
Step 4: release unfinished game
Step 5: release DLC
Step 6: release definitive edition
Step 7: release ultimate edition on next console with secret DLC that was done years ago.

Re: Tekken 8's Trophy List Provides a Pretty Easy Platinum

Martijn87

I am terrible at fighting games online. Most of the time my opponent starts a combo, and I will just go make myself a cup of tea, get a snack or play with the dog. So if there are online trophies for big online achievements, then this will be a platinum I will not get.

Re: The Latest PS5 Firmware Update Is Available to Download Now

@atthegates that's most likely the problem. If you copy them to your HDD and if it's still attached to your system it will still see it as a installed game on your HDD. It will not show on the home screen ones you played enough other games to kick it from the list that the PS5 shows.
