It’s a good game but I liked the original more. The combat and graphics were a big step up but it felt bloated and the story wasn’t as interesting, for me.
@MegaManX-7 Slitter heads definitely need to stand down!
Love seeing the Sacred Symbols love in here. I bought this because of Colin, and I certainly think he was right about it. It’s not spectacular but it’s solid fun.
I still haven’t played it because I'm burnt out on the genre, but god I love the idea of this story. I might have to bite the bullet and play it after Spider-Man.
I can’t wait to sit down and play this with my family. We are huge Bluey fans, and while this may not end up being a great game, I know we’ll have a blast playing it together.
@awp69 it became a bad score when it fits the narrative people are trying to create. The absurd fanboy comments on both sides are something special in this article. I’m with you, I’ve played faith and both are fantastic games, but people can’t just accept that, it always has to be a console war. I’ll stick with being an agnostic gamer and rolling my eyes at it all.
@BansheeNorn this news isn’t surprising, the logistics of carrying all of that over for three games would be crazy. Like you said, there’d have to be an absurd final level cap for that. There was still a part of me that was somewhat hopeful though.
I’m on blackout for Spider-Man 2 and FFVII Rebirth, so I’m glad I didn’t watch it live. Other than that, there doesn’t seem like there was much for me other Helldivers 2.
@trev666 my personal opinion is not likely. They used those games as stepping stones to this game. I’ve only played the first Divinity, I really liked it, but this is that on steroids. It’s similar combat, but even deeper. There’s also countless ways to handle situations/encounters, but that’s things we saw in their previous games, it’s just ramped up now.
@Batesy125s the show is an absolute masterpiece. I agree with the writing and quality of GoT but it actually gets better as the series goes on. It’s my absolute favorite show and can highly recommend it.
I watched this after it was mentioned on one of Last Stand Media’s shows (I forgot which one), and I absolutely loved it. It was fascinating getting behind the scenes of a studio.
I haven’t played it but I can’t help but laugh at the “abysmal” having 4% of the votes. First off, Capcom is killing it right now, so I’m sure it’s a great game. Second, it’s Street Fighter one of the best fighting games ever.
@deadfred77 I’m 38 and personally love it. The art style brings me back to my childhood playing these style games. I certainly don’t want every game to look and feel like this but I enjoy the occasional one, like this or Proteus. The focus on hyper realism gets a little old to me, so I like that there’s studios that mix it up.
Titanfall 2’s campaign was a masterpiece, I would love for 3. I’m pretty much down for anything this team does that let’s me play a single player campaign though.

@illegalmonkey thanks for the recommendation, I’ll definitely check it out.
Re: Star Kaitlyn Dever Could Be The Last of Us TV Show's Abby
I have no idea who this is, but I can see it if she bulks up some.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 502
I just beat Spider-Man 2 last night, so I’ll either be clearing up some side content or jumping into Immortals of Aveum next.

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 PS5 Update Available Now, Here Are All the Patch Notes
I adore this game, but it’s so much buggier than any other Insomniac game I’ve played.
Re: The Battle for Game of the Year in a Superb 2023 Begins on Monday
1. Baulder’s Gate 3
2. Final Fantasy XVI
3. Hi-Fi Rush
This is my list, though there was so many phenomenal games this year that there’s plenty of contenders for GotY.
Re: Sony Will Help Fund and Distribute a Live-Action The Legend of Zelda Film
I was so excited for this until I saw it was the director of the Maze Runner

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 500
Spider-Man 2 and Super Mario Wonder for me
Re: Alan Wake 2 (PS5) - A Nightmare We Never Want to Wake Up From
15-20 hours sounds like the perfect length! I’m really looking forward to this, though it’ll be a while before I get to it.
Re: Poll: Spider-Man 2 PS5 Bugs are Apparently a Real Problem, But Have You Had Any?
I had a weird bug where a crowd of people were walking through a chain link fence, but that’s the only bug I’ve had so far.
Re: Venom Spin-Off Game an Option for Insomniac, If Fans Want It
I’d rather a follow up to Sunset Overdrive, that game was absolutely fantastic.
Re: Mini Review: Trepang2 (PS5) - Great Run-and-Gun Shooter Misfires Its Attempts to Be More
@Tchunga FEAR was such an incredible I would love for it to return, but until then, I’ll gladly take FEAR-like games!

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake PS5, PS4 Save Data Gets You Bonus Rebirth Items
I’m still very excited for this game and never hit max level in Remake, but I was hoping that would all carry over.
Re: Round Up: What Was Announced During Sony's State of Play Livestream for September 2023?
@Marquez I definitely am. I’m glad I stayed away, Square has a tendency to spoil their own games in trailers, I’d rather avoid that if I can.
Re: Round Up: What Was Announced During Sony's State of Play Livestream for September 2023?
I’m on blackout for Spider-Man 2 and FFVII Rebirth, so I’m glad I didn’t watch it live. Other than that, there doesn’t seem like there was much for me other Helldivers 2.
Re: Community: Push Square Readers Narrow Down Best Game of All Time Vote to Two Classics
Neither would be my number one, but out of these, I love Bloodborne, but FFVII easily wins.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 493
Baldur’s Gate 3 on my Steam Deck and Starfield on Xbox… sorry PlayStation, you’ll be getting no love this weekend.
Re: Gargoyles Remastered Swoops to PS4 in October with New Visuals, In-Game Rewind
YESSSSS! I adored this game!

Re: Baldur's Gate 3 (PS5) - One of the Greatest RPGs of Our Time
I’ve been playing this on Steam Deck and easily think it’s one of the best RPGs in decades.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 490
Pikmin 4 and Final Fantasy XVI
Re: Gritty TMNT: The Last Ronin PS5 Trailer Is a Teaser in Every Sense of the Word
@HotGoomba I can’t recommend The Last Ronin enough, it’s such a fantastic series.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 489
Mostly Pikmin 4 but I’ll try to squeeze in some Final Fantasy XVI if I can.
Re: Hands On: The Expanse: A Telltale Series PS5, PS4 Gets Off to a Strong Start
@Dramlin Drummer stole every scene she was in, she was such a great character and so well acted.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Final Fantasy 16?
It’s a near 10 for me, they just need to fix the frame rates.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Street Fighter 6?

Re: Random: Miles Morales Foils Quantum Bodega Robbery in Across the Spider-Verse Clip
@sanderson72 sadly, I know far too many people who do that. Both are obnoxious.
@MoorePs5 glad to help
Re: Random: Miles Morales Foils Quantum Bodega Robbery in Across the Spider-Verse Clip
@MoorePs5 the problem is people say “ATM machine,” which is redundant since the “m” stands for “machine.”

Re: Titanfall Series Director Cooking Up 'Something New' at Respawn
@_camo_ I couldn’t agree more. I wouldn’t even put another FPS in its class.
