Just let it die already. Every major pub can do a show case themselves and smaller indie titles will just need to align with a console (publisher) or just another publisher to gain traction. The only devs my suggestion would hurt are AA and smaller self published developers... which is unfortunate but a reality
@Korgon same!! I remember the clip of dude standing up and being 2 feet taller than Kratos and the internet went nuts. Fat Thor seemed like a footnote at the time
16 of 25. And a few I had "oh crap" moments right after I clicked. Should have been 19 or 20 lol. Merry Xmas everyone. And those on the other side of the pond I hope it was a great day for all
Nice group of games. My favs I played on ps5 were Rachet, Returnal, Kena and 9 Monkeys if Shaolin. If you like side scrolling beat em ups don't sleep on that last 1
If I can sink 500+ hours into a game it knows what it's doing. There are few games I've sunk that kinda time into. It is also one of those games that I thought about when I wasn't playing it. Also a rare feat imo. The music, the lore, the graphics (at the time), the overwhelming amount of content, the fact your decisions mattered and changed the game...it was just a wonderful experience minus the bugs.
Motor Storm, Resistance Trilogy, Uncharted Trilogy, MGS4, TLoU, Folklore, 3d DOT Heroes, Fallout 3 and New Vegas, Heavenly Sword and Valkyria Chronicles all come to mind
Speed running save states that are records with be worth a fortune. Also, this sucks. Terrible idea. But I'd expect EA, Acti, 2K and Ubi to adopt as early as possible.
Hey Insomniac, Little help over here!! Lol. Poor Crystal Dynamics. SE already threw them under the bus. I hope Spidey plays well for those still playing the game
I, for one, cannot F'n wait to play Vice City again. Never got into SA but acknowledge the love. I haven't played these since they originally released. I'm not sure if I played 3 or VC more but will start with VC. I'd be lying if I wasn't worried about the radio stations being screwed due to licensing agreements
It takes two with the wife, MK11 story (forgot what a campy good time the MK stories have been since 9) and I need to get my Series S hooked back up since the move. Been missing me some gamepass
@Icey664 that the philosophy (outside of cloud gaming on every electronic device) of having 100 million people play your game is either free 2 play or an anomaly like gta5 or mk8 lol
I don't think this is a good look for Xbox studios. What the he'll have they been doing since this was announced? I feel like I've been saying this for most of their developers. Game is still easily 3 years out. As an agnostic gamer who owners every platform I am constantly perplexed by what these devs are actually spending their time on. Methinks it's time for Booty to go bye bye. He can't seem to keep these devs productive or on a solid schedule
Chrono cross remaster?? Yes please. If that's true...maybe, just maybe, we can finally get a 3rd Chrono game or a Bluepoint remake of the OG. I know licensing and ownership issues have been a huge problem for the needle moving on that franchise but they are 2nof the best rpgs of all time
Ragnarok and GT7 have pretty tight release windows if not dates. I think Factions is a no show. Forspoken deep dive with release window, MGS R announced by recently acquired Bluepoint. GTA5 footage, a new IP and hopefully Pragmata update
As much as Jaffe comments on Playstation stuff I think he might be sneaking back into the fold. Come on Sony give Jaffe a team of 50 and let that man create. If I created God of War and Twisted Metal doesn't outweigh his missteps I dunno what does. So drawn to death sucked. Big deal
I think they have the pulse of the consumer. Usually large lengths of silence means some big surprise announcements are incoming. Remember they said they have 25ish IPs in development and many are new. I'd expect something we have no idea about even being in development being released by spring of next year. Just my hunch. They've done so much right regarding their games and IPs that I think we take the silence as a bad thing. I mean does anyone remember the XsX reveal with Hellblade 2 cinematic? That was literally all they had made as they've just recently announced moving beyond a vertical slice and into full development. That game is still years out. At least Sony rarely if ever does that
Sony needs to make a compelling FPS again and they also need to make a full on RPG Ala Fable to call their own imo. I know Horizon, TLoU, GoW etc. All have some rpg elements but that'd not what I mean. Full on action/adventure rpg and a new FPS to add to the stable.
Didn't this sell like 13-15 million within a week. They already got the $$$. And unfortunately a remastered TW3 will sell like crazy too (obviously because it's good) and make even more $$$. I kinda feel like they've all but completely moved on. They seem pretty content with "playable"
Still think a $100-120 annual Now/Plus sub would really be legit. Especially as Playstation continues to offer better Now options and downloads. I'd lock 1st party releases to 6 months off the service.
Wipeout I totally get. But a new twisted metal would surprise me. I can't imagine Sony didn't take a financial beating on destruction all stars. For them to so quickly say let's do another car combat game...maybe their logic is it will be much better developed by 1st party studio. I'm game for both of them as I love the franchises. And Wipeout in VR was just amazing
Man that was kinda a bummer. Halo just looked like more Halo (which is good with MC and Split Screen), Fable tease was BS. The most hype for me was Outer Worlds and it comes to Playstation lol. Avowed is gonna be good though. I still dont know what to make of EverWild
No UC4? That surprises me. Maybe we've hit a wall with Uncharted and its time to hit the drawing board again. Horizon and Ghosts are easily my 2 favorite open world games this gen. If i had to rank my top 5 it would be GoW, Sushi, Horizon, Last of us 2, and FF7R. Honorable to INfamous SS, Dying Light and Rocket League. Of course some indies are right up there too
It's usually 50 or less a year (always a deal somewhere). Never been a factor for me. Hell i had live and plus overlapping for several years. The internet will lose its mind though
