Started it this past weekend on PS5 after trying it on PS4 when it launched (and updated), I still can't get into it. Personally, I prefer Subnautica as a survival simulator, with the lore they created with that one world. With that being said, I hope fans of NMS are enjoying this.
Cyberpunk went gold before they delayed it for another month, meaning that discs were already in production at that time. I bet this first patch is a bunch of the fixes they made.
@Jayofmaya Honestly after RE2, you probably never have to do another zombie game again. RE2 Remake is probably the pinnacle of zombie games on any modern system IMHO.
@HUMPERDOO Totally agree w/ the character development and dialogue. Also, I found Sam Whitwer's VO specifically annoying whenever he would go to sleep in-game.
@LiamCroft I totally respect your review and actually agree with a large chunk of it. With that being said, I do feel like the world building is really good in the game.
@ShogunRok I will only accept this adaptation if it natively has a poor dub with Michael Rosenbaum, Eliza Dushku, Michael Madsen, Mark Hamill, and Rachel Leigh Cook.
Under "Ugly", you failed to mention that transphobic J.K. Rowling will probably make a boatload of money out of that stellar looking Hogwarts Legacy game....
I'm not typically a fan of these types of open world games (read Assassin's Creed); but Ghost of Tsushima really resonates with me. It's my GOTY so far, at least on PS4 and would easily give it an 8 or a 9; where as I would have given TLOU 2 a solid 7. TLOU 2 is a beautiful game no doubt and I take no umbrage with it's story, it's just far too dour during this period in time at no fault of it's own; just bad timing.
As an early adopter, this pisses me off; with that being said, the game deserved a better commercial performance than it had and would happily repurchase it on PS5 as long as the updated version takes care of choppiness when transitioning in and out of the pause screen....
Length of game doesn't necessarily denote its value. Resi 2 was only slightly longer than Resi 3 and priced the same. The big issue here is that while the latter was a fantastic game, it lacks the staying power, replay-ability, and resonance that the former had upon launch. Personally I played through Resi 2 at lest six times, where as Resi 3 was a one and done for me. A good one and done, but a one and done none-the-less.

Re: 'Exciting Plans' For Persona in 2021, Says Series Producer
Collect the first two games (both parts of the second) and make a full 3D remake as one saga, then I'll be happy.

Re: Koei Tecmo Cancels Atelier Ryza 2's Physical PS5 Release in Japan
It's a cost thing. It would take at least three Blu-rays worth of space to fit Ryza's thighs onto the discs.

Re: SEGA's Making a Live Action Yakuza Movie
There was already a Yakuza film directed by Takashi Miike... One was enough, believe me.

Re: This Stunning Dreams Creation Will Make You Question Real Life
it's a good creation, but calling it photorealistic is hyperbole.
