@naruball How exactly does taking popular, established IP's with compelling stories about space warfare and aliens and gods and fantasy stuff and clumsily jamming real world contemporary social justice issues improve the story at all? It's nothing more than virtue signaling. If studios want to make stories like that then make original stories with original characters.
Man, Sony is f***ing up this generation. They literally blew the competition out of the water last generation and now they're sinking like the titanic.
The earlier games had you drive politicians around while they screwed hookers and you sprayed logs of ***** on people's houses. I can't help but feel like this game is going to include lessons on cultural appropriation.
My favorite game of all time and easily the greatest game of the 2D era. I remember the day I got it. I've long since lost count of how many times I've played it.
Game pass is overrated. I got a free trial with my new gaming pc and all I played was halo infinite. Most other games that I wanted to play I already owned.
That's more than what Disney paid for Marvel, Star Wars, and 20th Century Fox combined. This deal will not turn a profit for at least a decade. I don't think this was very smart.
I couldn't care less. I bought Cold War on sale so I could play zombies. Prior to that, the last COD game I played was MW2, when it was originally released.
@Col_McCafferty You can't blame him. Sony and MS did jack s*** to protect their loyal customers from scalpers. I refuse to believe that global technology juggernauts with billions in annual profits didn't know this was going to happen.
@Anti-Matter Games aimed at children are all well and good, but these just look like low effort garbage aimed at kids with neglectful parents who were raised by smartphones. Nothing of value or real entertainment could be found in either of those sorry excuses for cash grabs.
@Valgore Without exclusives, what's the point of having different consoles? Yeah, it's lame that you can't buy one console and be able to play every game, but competition drives innovation and progress. It's better this way.

Re: Sony and Bungie Will Create a Live Service Centre of Excellence Once Acquisition Closes
I hope Sony acquires Bungie and makes Not Halo, which is basically Halo, but not, as a f*** you to Microsoft.

Re: Nintendo Switch Has Now Outsold PS4 in USA
Big deal. There's nothing that Nintendo (or Microsoft) has ever made that could hold a candle to Sony's PS4 generation of first-party exclusives.

Neat. Now if only I could get a PS5.
Re: Poll: As God of War Turns Four, What Would You Rate It Today?
I think it's Sony's best offering and one of the best games ever made. Just my opinion.

Are you gonna tell us why it's too rad for Sony consoles?

Re: Microsoft Buys Call of Duty Publisher Activision Blizzard
@Floki Everything they have or acquire turns to s***. Name one franchise they have that's worth a d***.
Re: Microsoft Buys Call of Duty Publisher Activision Blizzard
@Floki Nah, MS will f*** this up too and ruin more franchises. It's what they do best.
Re: Microsoft Buys Call of Duty Publisher Activision Blizzard
@JGruns it'll take a decade or longer. That's if they don't ruin the company and tank it before they can turn a profit.

Re: Xbox Now Owns Legendary PlayStation Series Crash Bandicoot, Spyro the Dragon
Calling Crash and Spyro legendary is a bit of a stretch.
Re: Poll: Would You Still Buy PlayStation Consoles Without Activision Blizzard Games?
@BloodEagle Good riddance. Ubisoft hasn't made a decent game in ten years.
Re: Poll: Would You Still Buy PlayStation Consoles Without Activision Blizzard Games?
I couldn't care less. I bought Cold War on sale so I could play zombies. Prior to that, the last COD game I played was MW2, when it was originally released.
Re: December 2021 NPD: Call of Duty: Vanguard Was the Best-Selling PS5, PS4 Game of the Year
@Subsided a new Killzone would be legit. Now seems like a good time to reboot the Resistance series.

@ArcticSin Same here dude. I got tired of this BS and bought myself a prebuilt PC over the holidays.

Re: Saints Row Grabs an Explosive New Gameplay Trailer
@MidnightDragonDX demonic cultists would be a huge improvement. These new characters look like woke hipster d-bags.
Re: Saints Row Grabs an Explosive New Gameplay Trailer
I have a feeling that this game is gonna be woke AF.
Re: It's Been One Year Since the Release of Cyberpunk 2077
Releasing it on last gen was a huge mistake. CDPR should've delayed the game until now and released it exclusively on next gen and PC.

Re: Insomniac Scaled Back Marvel's Spider-Man Boss to Cut Down on Crunch
@fR_eeBritney I definitely got that feeling too. It's as if the first game was a warm-up lap for something much grander.
