not enough good single player shooters. seems like one of them. the thing is, i dont like to spend a lot of shooters, theyre not my favourite genre. But with a discount or a psplus extra, id go for it blindfolded
who cares about that crap. i mean....the skins arent that great so far, and they cost waaaaayyy to much. Your character is so tiny on screen. why spend so much on such little visual difference. To see it in the main menu ?
Lets be honest. Rob Zombie was the highlight of twisted metal. For the music of course, then he had a character based on him. Does the show at least have a Rob Zombie song ? WHERE IS ROB ZOMBIE.
we still got plenty of fun with this game.... thanks to local coop on ps5. honestly, i wouldnt play it alone. at least not as long as any other diablo. But im confident, their game has some seriously well made gameplay. things can be patched up
So weird to see a videogame about such an old manga. ive read it so many times when i was younger...great memories. so, its going to be a boss battle kind of Arpg ? it was a long serie, i hope they can include every arcs ! if so, im in.
except for diablo, i dont think i play much activision or blizzard games. played a ton of call of duty and overwatch years ago, but i dont have the time or dedication to go back at an online shooter. or online whatever. So this probably wont affect me much. Still bad for COD fans on playstation, if it ever change anything.
I loved the one shot manga when it came out many years ago. who would have thought it would be a game and an anime more than 20 years later. I hope they try to make a Kajika game too.
@Nem yeah, FF6 is a very tricky one to remake for mostly all that you mentionned. plus, going from pixel sprites to 3D rarely looks good. i mean, Amano's particular artstyle is pretty hard to nail in 3D. And there is so much to do with dialogues that it needs basically a whole new script. SNES rpgs were limited in font characters, which often made dialogues short and simple. And voices, man... it took me some time to agree with FF7 choice of voice actors, it kind of break the illusion like you said.
@johnny30 im down for a 3d remake too, as long as they dont do it like seiken densetsu 3, that was underwhelming. FF16 seems pretty close to what it should look like.
i think final 6 and chrono trigger are the 2 trickiest rpg to remake. even more than ff7 was. what kind of approach would give them justice. i really hope they dont give them to the studio that made seiken densetsu 3 remake, that game was rubbish. The main problem is the transition between pixel art and 3D, that rarely give good results. FF6 deserves and outstanding remake.
ooooohhh yess!! man that game was a masterpiece. The multiple characters paths, and all the obscure hidden stuff that makes a sort of postgame. that music too... that game was so gooood! ill go back at it for sure.
looks like old school good fun. but man that main character looks bad. it lacks that little spark to make it truly appealing, like a nintendo mascot has.
finally had time to do the demo and im sold. it was much better than anticipated. and also less cheezy. gonna get that game for sure when ill have proper time
i havent even explored a quarter of the map. i personally prefer to explore as much of the map as possible before trying to find XP farming methods. its pretty fun so far, quite different than the way we explored the other diablo games.
probably be my Fall game. cant play something this involving during summer, especially not when diablo is lurking on my ps5. its not like a game you can fool around for 30 minutes then leave it be for a while.
ive been a final fantasy hardcore fan all my youth. chrono trigger and many other rpgs gave me tons of fond memories. So much that i make games for living and it works out pretty well for me. So yeah he is right, you can play games a ton and still achieve some life goals. At some point you gotta study and work hard, but you can still keep that gaming side active cause its great for sanity.
@Pat_trick i played them all. the 4 kind of remind me a mix of the second diablo and one those baldur gate dark alliance and champions of norrath games. if youre not sure, you could always wait for a deal.
liked it a lot on SNES and arcades in the 90s because of the novelty. I fool in fighting games now and then, but its not a genre that im really fond of.
@Feena yeah well, of course it had no game breaking bug. the main problem is how the game experience is different and much more polished after 6 months or a year. i mean, they added a flying vehicle midway, all characters are now playable, some ease of life arrangements, even some story fixes regarding a confusing chapter that leads to the ending. Also, the DLCs were mostly all released and i personally felt they should have been part of the main game. What they added story/character wise was too important to be left out. but man, i cant wait to try FF16. just not at launch
golden rule: dont release your game the same month as a Blizzard game. i will let FF16 mature and get patched up. Also a golden rule, especially when you see how FF15 changed in the course of its first year of launch.
interesting, could be useful. but man that design looks stupid. My main issue would be the joysticks. i got 3 ps5 controllers, all of them ended up with drifting within the first year. Everyone i know has drifting issues with their ps5 controllers. So, is that projectQ thing going to drift in a year ? probably. Those controllers arent cheap to replace or fix, and that tablet feels like its gonna end up being costly too.
All in for VI at the top. im always wondering which of 6 and 7 i prefer. 7 was a revolution in many aspects, but man final 6. The story and its characters... THE MUSIC. The main problem i got with recent final fantasies/JRPG is the voice acting during combat. All those screams... man do they like screaming. imagine that in a UFC or a boxing match. Each strike coming with a super loud EEYYAAAHH
is this game more stable than the third remaster ? it kept crashing on me. the kind of crash you have to learn why it does and try to avoid the problem. Then sometimes you just cant and you need to restart an entire mission. Then you just delete the game. at least it was free on psplus, but that didnt make me want to put in cash for the other saint row game.
One interesting thing about FFVI is the way the espers give bonus stats points. it encourages the veterans to try to go underleveled until very late in-game for Raiden's godlike speed stat bonus.
I would not do this on a first experience, but it is very satisfying to try.
not a star wars fan. probably never gonna play it. But then, I said that for guardians of the galaxy and spiderman. had to wait for them to be free on the pass and man these game were worth it. So, i hope it comes on the pass or on a huge sale.
a legend. i did this one many times already, and i already cant wait to go back at it. That story and characters. i hope squarenix can go back at this kind of storytelling for FFXVI
i didnt find the characters that bland. i really enjoyed it back in the days, i wonder if i will stick to it as much now although. it had a feel similar to older dragonquests.

Re: Final Fantasy 16 Was Planned for PS5 and PS4, But the Last-Gen Version Would Have Taken Too Long

Re: Gigantic Saints Row Patch Notes Posted Ahead of Next Week's Major Update
is this game more stable than the third remaster ? it kept crashing on me. the kind of crash you have to learn why it does and try to avoid the problem. Then sometimes you just cant and you need to restart an entire mission. Then you just delete the game.
at least it was free on psplus, but that didnt make me want to put in cash for the other saint row game.
