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

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 well๐Ÿ˜. 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! ๐Ÿ˜

Re: Xbox Fans Petitioning for Helldivers 2 to Launch on Xbox

Muttt

I mean I'm all for ending the childish console wars. But competition is good as well. Just a bit less tribal. But as I was called a butt hurt Sony pony* for crying over losing Doom, Elder Scrolls etc I can live with Hell Divers 2 being console exclusive for now ๐Ÿคฃ.

*Didn't actually happen but sounded good.

Re: Game of the Year: Best PS5, PS4 Puzzle Game of 2023

Muttt

I played the Humanity demo, I liked it but found one of the puzzles bemusing and it put me off. May have to retry. Heard lots of good stuff about Cocoon that is definitely on list. Living Talos Principle 2 at the moment. About the right amount of head scratching for me.

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of the Final Fantasy 16 PS5 Demo?

Muttt

Played it and enjoyed it. Combat was meh, I expect it'll get more in depth and I have to try out the challenge mode that's now unlocked.

Also love the comments from people who haven't played the demo slamming people who have and weren't blown away. Geez chill. Most of the negative comments are fair and someone's opinion. Which is the point of the poll. I've not seen anyone really bashing the game only being honest and saying not for me. They don't stop you (or want to stop you) being hyped.

Relax.

Re: Fast-Paced FPS Bulletstorm VR Kick Stomps PSVR2

Muttt

@Trousersnake I don't think it is. But some do. Read some of the opinion pieces on the site.

It's doing well for me, loads of games and releases like this and other being announced on a regular basis. Not perfect, but pretty healthy for me.

Re: Feature: PSVR2 Three Months Later - The Good, The Bad, and The Worrying

Muttt

So you've played everything? Good for you guys. But those of us that have jobs that don't revolve around playing games have plenty to keep us busy. There's a range of games, plenty to play and there's a slew drop feed of new games coming.

I'm very happy. It's a big step up and I can see me using it more and buying more games than PSVR1.

Re: Preview: Firewall Ultra Proves There's Plenty to Look Forward to on PSVR2

Muttt

@get2sammyb fair enough, I just disagree with the tone of the previous doom and gloom article. It's not necessary, sure challenge Sony and PlayStation, they are far from perfect. But occasionally this great site goes from trusted resource into rabid fan baiting.

Not very often I admit, but it mars what is a professional site with a sense of community.

Others may disagree ๐Ÿ˜
