There are many games that feature creatures being captured in some kind of device and don't get me started on games that feature Mounts. I'm totally convinced had Palworld not received the attention it did then it's very possible Nintendo wouldn't have cared at all.
I'm 100% against Nintendo here. If they win the ramifications going forward could be enormous.
As much as I like PlayStation, I've grown up with all PlayStations including PSP PSP Go and Vita I personally don't think it is a particularly good time to pick up a PlayStation. For a start a lot of games that were once exclusive are now on PC which is a good thing but it doesn't make the PS5 a must have like before as a result, it just means people have more of a choice now.
I bought it on PC so I'll likely stick with that. This being said the framerate is still all over the place and I'm playing it on a 4090. Be interesting to see how it performs on the Pro which I'll likely be buying next year but for now I'm not in any hurry.
Buying it later on. It's a shame there's so much hate towards this game over certain things I won't get into here but overall I prefer to decide for myself what I think of a game rather than letting an angry bunch of keyboard warriors decide for me.
Looks nicer sure but so does the original which still holds up very well. I'm stubborn by nature so don't mind me, if you're looking forward to it I hope you enjoy it because it's a good game.
I'm perfectly ok with this tbh. They can put all focus onto their other games and Spider-Man 2 is coming to PC at the end of January anyway so it's possible that played a role in them not wanting to make DLC too.
@twitchtvpat Kids that say "cash grab"? sorry to disappoint you buddy but I'm 46. I've been gaming long enough to know a cash grab when I see one and this is a cash grab. This generation has just been embarrassing with the amount of Remasters and Remakes and honestly I've reached burn out from all of it. People ask themselves what's happened to game creativity? it's becoming more and more stagnated because of this that's what.
I know 10 isn't much on this occasion nevertheless my point stands. What's coming next? it makes me worry about the future of gaming tbh.
@colonelkilgore It gets hate not because it's a bad game but because this is a Remaster that simply isn't needed. It's baffling to me how people are defending a blatant cash grab here but whatever.
Bummer. Was hoping this game would be better but tbh after I heard about it I had a feeling it was going to be a disappointment. I'm still waiting for a Transformers game to be as good if not better than Devastation and those 2 games on PS3, War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron.
Edit: actually the PS2 Transformers game was superb so there's that one too.
@HotGoomba Facebook Moderators don't seem to give a damn either. In fact they're the most useless bunch of human beings I've ever come across. The times I've reported inappropriate content and they do nothing at all is insane.
I don't let my kids near sites like this one anyway. I myself sometimes get weird messages from these people as they likely think I'm a lot younger rather than an adult. I won't say what I would like to do to them here but I believe you get the general idea.
I definitely did not expect this. Normally I would side with Nintendo but not this time in fact I hope this Lawsuit backfires and hits them hard. What they're doing here is just scummy, it just makes me despise them as a Company even more and I hate saying this because I do like their games.
Being able to file a Patent for something needs to be abolished IMHO.
I never really could get into these games back in the day like I did Resident Evil, I played them once and that was it. After reading this however my enthusiasm for these games has been rekindled.
I will not be playing this. If they turn this into Live Service I'll continue doing what I've done with all Live Service games, not playing any of them at all. A Single Player game with Multiplayer however would definitely have my attention but Live Service? kindly go away please.
I had planned to buy this game but not at full Price. It's just too expensive for what you get. A shame because admittedly the Star Wars kid in me really likes the look of it.
Yeah didn't like the character roster with Kombat Pack 2. I'm sick of seeing Arnold Schwarzenegger in these games now and Ghostface just seems really out of place too.
@Andy22385 Shrugs God knows. I got a PC built this year anyway so I'm not really in a rush to get the Pro now. I waited a while with the PS4 Pro I'll do the same here as well.
I loved the first Dragon Age game but after that my interest started to dwindle. Inquisition was ok but that's all it was. This being said I think I'm willing to give this one a chance.
@babybilly Yeah but what I mean is because patenting laws work differently over there to here that's probably why it's available outside of Japan. I mean Idk I'm not an expert I'm just going by what I've heard. Forgive me for not being clearer.
@eagletrippin Your TV died? ahh jeez that's awful. Just out of curiosity how much was it if you don't mind me asking? I've seen 8K TVs for as much as 5K or even more here.
@MrPeanutbutterz Whether the monsters are similar or not is not relevant to this case. I wish people would stop bringing that up tbh. Coromon Nexomon and other games like those have very similar designs too as well as gameplay but people conveniently leave that out. This is a Patent infringement Lawsuit not Copyright.
@IamJT Mm-hmm best thing to do is to just let them debate about it in a Court of Law. No point speculating either as we simply don't know enough about the case
Given Nintendo's track record with Lawsuits though as much as I hate to admit it I think they'll win too. If changes have to be made to the game then I'm perfectly ok with this.

Steam hasn't been deleting anything. Reviews I saw last night are still there ππ€£
Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard Comes Out Swinging, Already EA's Biggest Single Player Game on Steam
So much ***** being spouted out here from people who weren't going to play it anyway π
Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard Comes Out Swinging, Already EA's Biggest Single Player Game on Steam
So much for the angry Keyboard Warriors. They have a lot to say for a bunch of people (or idiots) who haven't even played the game at all.
Re: New Dragon's Dogma 2 Patch Prepares for PS5 Pro with PSSR, Balanced Settings

Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard Guide: Key Help for BioWare's RPG
Buying it later on. It's a shame there's so much hate towards this game over certain things I won't get into here but overall I prefer to decide for myself what I think of a game rather than letting an angry bunch of keyboard warriors decide for me.
Regardless thanks for the guide π
Re: Croc: Legend of the Gobbos Remaster's Trophy List Will Challenge Your Gamer Instincts
Yeah have to agree with the guy above. This is not my idea of a good time at all. I still own the original 2 games anyway so I'll stick with those.

Re: Some Marvel's Spider-Man 2 PS5 Fans Are Furious It's Not Getting DLC
@Max_the_German Don't bother with Twitter/X you won't even be able to properly block people on there soon. You're better off joining Bluesky.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Blocked in Kuwait, Activision Refunds Preorders
Had a feeling this would happen. As for playing it? no I will not. I'll probably wait for a Sale though.

Re: Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered Sounds Like a Ridiculously Good PS5 Upgrade
@colonelkilgore Yeah well ignore them. I just don't think a Remaster is needed here. Apart from that I really like the Horizon games.

Re: Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered Sounds Like a Ridiculously Good PS5 Upgrade
It's worth it if you haven't played it before but if you're someone like me who has it feels like they're giving us the middle finger.

Re: Forget Sonic, SEGA's Classic Arcade Shinobi Series Headed for Hollywood
I used to play The Revenge of Shinobi on the Sega Mega Drive so often when I was a kid so naturally I would watch a movie adaptation in a heartbeat.

Re: Report Finds Lack of Star Wars Outlaws Sales Disturbing
It's for a specific audience which obviously isn't very big. People are likely burnt out on this sort of game as well.
Re: Shadow's Campaign About the Same Length as Sonic's in Sonic X Shadow Generations
I bought it for Shadow's campaign anyway and I expected it to be as long so I'm ok with this.

Re: Underperforming XDefiant Pours More Misery on Embattled Publisher Ubisoft
Off topic......sort of but I just want to say that when it rains here in Ireland it pours. The headline just reminded me of Irish weather.
On topic I completely forgot about this game's existence until right now this very minute.

That Anime character in the picture is adorable.

Re: Eve's Body Physics Get a Boost in Surprise Stellar Blade PS5 Patch
@Hyena_socks They did yes but this looks far more realistic. Dead or Alive looked like bouncy rubber balls ππ
Re: Eve's Body Physics Get a Boost in Surprise Stellar Blade PS5 Patch
Jokes aside but I actually like the ahem realism here.
Re: Mini Review: Mortal Kombat 1: Khaos Reigns (PS5) β DLC Add-On Is Mostly Unfunny and Overpriced
Yeah didn't like the character roster with Kombat Pack 2. I'm sick of seeing Arnold Schwarzenegger in these games now and Ghostface just seems really out of place too.
I'll wait for a Sale I think.

Re: In the UK, PS5 Pro Has Already Completely Sold Out
@get2sammyb Ahh right fair enough.
Re: In the UK, PS5 Pro Has Already Completely Sold Out
@RBMango Better off waiting for a Sale when the hype has died down.
Re: In the UK, PS5 Pro Has Already Completely Sold Out
Because they were bought by bots more than likely. Look on ebay now it's just nuts.
Re: Just Three Decisions from Dragon Age: Inquisition Will Carry Over to The Veilguard
I loved the first Dragon Age game but after that my interest started to dwindle. Inquisition was ok but that's all it was. This being said I think I'm willing to give this one a chance.
Re: Palworld's Release in Japan on Hold Indefinitely Thanks to Nintendo Lawsuit
@babybilly Yeah but what I mean is because patenting laws work differently over there to here that's probably why it's available outside of Japan. I mean Idk I'm not an expert I'm just going by what I've heard. Forgive me for not being clearer.
Re: Gran Turismo 7 Will Experiment with 8K, 60fps on PS5 Pro

Re: Gran Turismo 7 Will Experiment with 8K, 60fps on PS5 Pro
@Andy22385 Let me guess he's complaining about the 8K on the box. He has me blocked even though I've never interacted with him at all.

@babybilly I know that I'm referring to the game being available outside of Japan. What you said there is not relevant.
Re: Gran Turismo 7 Will Experiment with 8K, 60fps on PS5 Pro
8K tvs here cost more than a gaming PC π
Re: TMNT: Shredder's Revenge Gets Two More Characters in Radical Reptiles DLC
The developer that keeps on giving. I'll happily pay the small fee for this.
Re: Your Horizon Zero Dawn PS4 Progress Will Transition to PS5 Remaster
I have this game on PC and it already looks really nice. It looks really nice on PS4 too. If ever there was a pointless Remaster then this is it.
