@JAMes-BroWWWn I mean, he and the Xbox PR team have hit such lows in the last few years that I wouldn’t put something like this beside them but no they want paying videogamer money to get out of the grave they dug for themselves
We commit to put COD on PlayStation for at least 10 years and…every other game we make.
I think rumors are going too rampant…I can see a few games making it to PlayStation (I am totally convinced about ES6 now) but all these rumors seem a bit too much if they are staying in the console maker market. There’s barely any reason to buy an Xbox now if you have a decent PC, this would make it just extravagant.
This game sounded exciting before it launched! I Played 10 hours on PC to be able to join “the discourse” about it and after a while I just realized not only I wasn’t having fun but I was actually feeling like I was going through chores…I don’t think releasing it now, post the mid (still suspiciously high, seriously the game is nowhere near an 8, are they paying journalists?) reviews would move that many copies on PS5
Hurgh we got a code for this! But I am busy preparing my FFVII PHD replaying Crisis Core, Remake and the original game whilst also fencing off German kids online in Tekken 8 (why Bamco, why? Fix the localization!)
@ShogunRok thank you so much for this information! I still have nightmares of maxing the last few social links for the girl pals on PS2 as they became overly jealous and controlling.
@Ravix not meaning to start a flame or anything but realistically I don’t think Sony and Valve need to counter Microsoft in anything related to hardware as Xbox, as a physical console, is slowly becoming more scarcely relevant with each generation. Game Pass is probably contributing to selling a few SD as well!
Very nice review, it gave me a good sense of the game. I think I will save it for a sale as the combat and characters didn’t vibe with me as much as I thought in the demo.
@UltimateOtaku91 I am on the opposite side of the spectrum! I can tell the difference between 4K and 1080p but i have to pay attention, while I immediately notice 30fps to 60fps jump
Oh stellar blade! Finally! I feel like I have never been more keen to see more lady derrière action 😂 My family is kinda weirded out by my hype for this game. I love Bayonetta though so there’s that
Let my grandchildren bring me the last part of this game at my retirement party 😂
Just thinking of all those characters available to play in modern 3D akin to FFVIIR gave me a kind of vertigo
I understand where he is coming from but yeah after a while even the most interesting, detailed world needs fast travel. Can I have it in the real world plz?
I would happily play it this year! About the title: anybody who has played the first one will immediately get it but I think it will confuse people even more with inexplicable summer vibes 😅
I will play it as some point! I also think they have been exposed enough for their dlc practices and definitely the game score shouldn’t suffer for it!
I love FF minigames! And I expect sheer silliness from the CPR Priscilla scene this time around. .
Remake basically proved my point that people would have been very less polarized by FF13 had it diluted its unrelenting pace with some minor town exploration an mini games. The two games are extremely similar.
Also games are best compared to books than to movies in terms of time commitment and I think a lot of people still prefer to buy books (physically and digitally) instead of renting them (even from libraries) on services. It’s something that stays with you for a significant while and that you can revisit from time to time if you feel like it
Sooner or later I will have to play this: I just played the original ps3 game and I enjoyed the story a lot though I felt the gameplay was alright but nothing to write home about.
I love a good roguelite mode so this might be the chance of trying this “controversial” game and get my own idea … will try to play it after all the upcoming Japanese games
That's very convenient. I am getting used to these features and I feel like loading times will make older generations of hardware feel really dated in retrospect.
As far as this game is concerned I am more and more excited at every glimpse of it! Currently playing Crisis Core Reunion to prepare for it
@McBurn I honestly can see it. Big budget version of HD-2D. I thought the first one was kind of forgettable but OTII was a masterclass in classic JRPG.

Re: Sounds Like Naughty Dog's Next Game Won't Be The Last of Us 3
Yeah I really hope we can find out from them at an event and not casually learn about it from some scumbag @Hundred_Hand_Slap
New IP ftw! Would love to see some kind of RPG from them, their world building is strong
Re: Kojima Confirms Mads Mikkelsen Won't Be Returning for Death Stranding 2
It wouldn’t make too much sense for his character to come back unless is for a cameo, flashback or something
Re: No Expanded Royal or Golden Edition for Persona 3 Reload, Atlus Promises
Let’s not blame Sega for things they have been doing since the ps2 era with various iterations of the same title.

Will gladly play it! My husband has been playing it on PC and it is a lot of fun, if it comes to PS or Switch I will make my own playthrough
Re: Street Fighter 6 Adds Ed at the End of February on PS5, PS4
I must say I like the darker battle hub quite much: how many arcades did you visit that look like a brightly illuminated sport centre?

Re: Poll: How Would You Rate the Latest State of Play Showcase?
Very good show! Lots of interesting games and Stellar Blade and Death Stranding look insanely polished
Also that Metal Gear solid spiritual successor announcement 🥰

@Kidfunkadelic83 Because you support strong female leads! Of course. 😄
Re: Death Stranding 2 Practically Confirmed for State of Play as Hideo Kojima Hypes Stream
It can’t get THAT better for me as I am really anticipating the main 3 games!

Re: Incoming Action RPG Granblue Fantasy: Relink Gets a Really Great Launch Trailer
The demo unfortunately kinda killed my hype: it seems not bad but kinda juvenile…I hope I am wrong. If the reviews are great, I will be playing it.

Re: No Snowboarding in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, But Expect Revamped CPR Minigame on PS5

Re: Square Enix Confirms AI Art Use in PS5, PS4 Exclusive Foamstars
AI lipsync makes sense, icons and album covers make them look cheap. At least they are upfront about it, it probably happens all the time lately.
Also:
Foamstars propping up the bar driving in a car it looks so easy
Foamstars propping up the bar driving in a car tonight
Re: The Last of Us 2 Remastered Director Doesn't Get Fan 'Consternation' Surrounding Re-Release
Eh, I agree with him but we should reintroduce him to the internet, apparently.

Re: Persona 3 Reload Is the Result of Fan Surveys, Says Atlus
@StrickenBiged I fully expect them to give us the female lead version of the story that we had in Persona 3 Portable in a later expansion.

Not to be confused with the adorable actor who played Chandler.

Re: Naoki Yoshida Thinks New Blood Is Needed to Direct Final Fantasy 17
It’s really a beautiful sentiment: he wants the Japanese industry to evolve and move forward, find new talent and stay relevant.
