Re: Going Platinum #2: The Witness

Muttt

I got so far then got stuck. I've tried to go back but having lost the knowledge I'd built up I just can't work out what to do it where to go.

Congrats to anyone getting the platinum. A real achievement.

Re: Hands On: PS Portal Is a Whole New Device with Cloud Streaming Update

Muttt

Given how Sony are slowly adding to the service I wonder if the PS+ premium requirements is partly to restrict numbers. Essentially testing the service while it ramps up.

I used it a bit, but with the new update it is getting a lot of use and streams directly seems better than via the PS5 for me. So it's a huge step forward and in can't wait to see what is next.

Re: Expect PS Portal's Glacial Rollout of New Features to Continue

Muttt

Wow. Even though Portal found the market Sony was looking for you guys are still negative. Glacial? Really? Is there a need for that?

They are testing things slowly I get that but I only see positive things from people that saw beyond the negative press and went "that's a neat device that lets me play more".

That said, more streaming of games please!

Re: Game of the Year: #9 - Helldivers 2

Muttt

I don't do multiplayer as a rule. However HD2 is one of those rare exceptions. I get the feeling because it came out so long ago it's been overlooked in the end if year awards.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing the Monster Hunter Wilds Open Beta?

Muttt

So I've not played any of these games before and well this beta isn't likely to change that. I found the first few battles completely confusing, being spammed instructions while I was trying to work out what the hell is going on.

Clearly I'm getting old. My boy has played the beta to death and lives it having put hundreds maybe thousands into a previous MH game. I really want to play this with him, but so far it feels terrible.

Re: Movie Review: Borderlands - As Bland As the Brand It's Based On

Muttt

Cate Blanchet is enough to put me off. She's a great actor, but I can't imagine she did this for any reason but the paycheque. Given her comment to Margot Robbie about heavy metal I'm surprised she lowered herself to videogames.

Glad to hear the film is generic as we would have guessed. Even with a subscription to see any film I want I'll give this a pass and go and see Deadpool again.

Re: PS5's Streaming Handheld PS Portal Is Proving a Huge Hit

Muttt

Plenty of people fell into the trap of it's not for me so it's a disaster. There's a market for this, I want sure goes much but clearly enough and more for Sony.

My portal is great. Yes there are other ways to achieve the same thing, but this is better. It's just a great experience and form factor.

Some people still missing the point that it's not a portal console it's an accessory. But if Sony did go all in and make a PS steam deck if be all over that as well😁. But it's a totally different device. Different use case. And majorly different price point.

Re: 3 New PS Plus Essential Games Up for Download Now on PS5, PS4

Muttt

@Max_the_German my memory isn't good enough to recall, but there was a point when a game had to get a certain metacritic I believe to be listed. That was probably when PS+ and PS Now either didn't exist or was separate.

Of course there were still months when you'd got the games or they weren't your type of game. But the quality was higher. At least in my misty eyes they were! 😁
