Lol I remember when I was excited for this game to come out Spring 2021😶‍🌫️ Oh well 2022 is shaping up to be a packed year

Just traded in Cold War (surprisingly got $30 for it at GameStop). I might rent this CoD to do the campaign and zombies for a few days.

Yeah people give Asmongold crap, some of which is totally deserved, but he has some of the best commentary on all things Blizzard of anyone out there.

Personally I’ll continue to play Diablo/ WoW Classic knowing my money will inevitably end up with those who were hurt, and so the work they did while being harassed was not in vain.

If you haven’t seen the original film I’d definitely recommend it. Great time capsule piece. Please just stay away from the sequel, and don’t take the reboot too seriously.

Pretty clear with Halo and Battlefield coming up, and MW2 next year, they’re really phoning it in with this game. Don’t know if I’ve ever heard of a AAA title being announced less than 3 months from release 🤷

Def looking forward to playing this, but it needs split screen and offline play to be added ASAP. L4D2 split screen on the 360 was super fun online and offline.

I was a sophomore in college when this game came out. Mind blowing to think about.

Nah. Director’s Cuts are the new “GOTY edition” and stand directly in contrast with the direction the industry is currently going in. I mean sure, capitalism blah blah blah, but anti-consumer is what it is no matter how you try to justify it. Sony’s taking a lot of swings with a lot of misses this gen on their victory lap, and we’re in a time where being choosy about what companies you support is difficult because of shortages. It’s not like there’s direct competition to the PS5 sitting on store shelves anywhere (at least in my experience). So Sony will continue to pull this stuff while selling out consistently. All we can really do is not directly support their greedier practices; i.e. buy this kind of stuff second hand or on sale. 🤷

Dead Space 2 will always haunt me since I only missed one achievement for that game. You can only save 3 times and each death sends you back to your last save.

Somewhere out there, in the vast of the internet, someone is undoubtedly offended by this 😂

I wanted to like this movie but I found the frantic dialogue a bit overwhelming and I felt like the characters were completely un-relatable. It works ok as a comedy but is a downright awful horror movie.

⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

P.S. I saw the sign

All I would care about from Tom Clancy at this point would be Rainbow Six Vegas 3 and unfortunately this ain’t it.

I was at first skeptical of the Steam Deck because my Switch has seen such little use over the past 4 years, but after thinking about the possibilities on it I’m very interested. I’ll list a couple why not:

1) you can install windows on it, and use a mouse/keyboard, meaning it can be a much cheaper gaming laptop. Having Steam + Battle.net on a handheld would be amazing. Especially considering most laptops that rival PS4 level power are twice this price.

2) it’s the perfect backlog machine. Most of the games I have in my backlog are older, easier to run games. This is the perfect machine to get into those when your not able to be with your console/ PC. The massive difference between this and the switch, for me, is that on the Steam Deck I’ll be able to play the Witcher’s 1 & 2, portal 1 & 2, and all the indie games I got for cheap and never have never found the time to play.

I mean I’m not going to get it day 1 or anything but I do think this is a great direction for handheld gaming. The switch is kind of a joke in my eyes and considering the Steam Deck is only $50 than the new Switch OLED I don’t see how they’re even comparable in terms of quality/price.

I would play ultimate ninja storm 4, but I’m only on episode 190 of Shippuden and I don’t want too many spoilers.

Sony still taking that victory lap?

Meanwhile Microsoft realizes the next race has already begun...

If they want to lasso fans back in, give this game a PS5 upgrade! I beat this game on the X1X when it came out and I’d gladly play it again on PS5 if it was 60fps.

EA is coming out with their own golf game again next year the PS version needs a crossover tournament called “Joel in One!” 👌

@Omnistalgic

No one outside of the cities he’s played in will miss Leflop.

Whether he’s calling for revenge against a cop who hasn’t be awarded due process, complaining about inequality in the U.S. while raking in Millions from China, or flopping on the court then complaining about refs not falling for it, the guy has done a great job of destroying his own reputation since the 2017 finals.

This isn’t Brady or Griffey Jr or any of the other 21st century athletes that get celeb status; this is a guy who’s actively shown he’s not someone to look up to.

@get2sammyb

Really? No ones said it yet.... ok I guess I will:

SLOW NEWS DAY?!

Such a shame the new LotR MMO was canned. I’d love more games set in Middle Earth but Gollum isn’t really doing it for me 😔

I definitely don’t regret getting my Switch in 2017, but there’s no way I’m putting more stock into Nintendo’s ecosystem any time soon.

Nintendo releases maybe 1 game a year that’s really worth getting and now that the PS5 and XSX are out their standards look really low.

Well we know they love double dippers... so PS6 in 2026?! 😹 just kidding, but really you know they’ll find a way to get people to buy it twice.

May give it a go down the road. New World drops in August though and I’ll wait to see how that’s received first. Don’t think I need two colonization RPGs in one year

I’ve always thought even the title “Abandoned” is a homage to PT and the work Hideo did on that... I mean the title was abandoned right 🤷

Anecdotally speaking yes it seems like Blue Box is a cover, and yes, they’re gearing up to reveal something massive.

Is it Silent Hill x Hideo Kojima? No. Could it be one or the other? Absolutely. Either way it’s intriguing.

I’m a huge Halo and Gears fan, but when Microsoft completely took those series in-house both suffered in quality. Gears 4 and Halo 4 DID NOT feel the same as previous entries.

All that being said I have full confidence Bethesda will continue to produce amazing games, which I will gladly play on PC.

I’m actually pretty surprised by this list! Mainly because I only see myself getting Elden Ring out of these 5. Back 4 Blood and Diablo will be my new release purchases before then.

Still need to get FFVII, Ratchet, and Mass Effect 😬

@LiamCroft

“FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON DRAGON BALL Z”

I’ve always enjoyed From Software games and their difficulty, but hopefully ER’s boss fights are designed with solo players in mind. Their DLCs and Dark Souls 3’s later bosses felt like they pushed you too much to co-op.

@TheFrenchiestFry

In what way is that “trash” compared to what 90% of developers do on Switch? Those are all Bethesda titles regardless of how they got there.

C’mon man... these comments sections get more condescending by the day. This site is slowly becoming unbearable because of how many people want to have pointless squabbles.

‘Microsoft buying Bethesda was definitely the most shameless power grab we’ve ever seen in gaming’ I think is the point trying to be made here...

I feel bad for the developers working on these projects. You’re work isn’t going to reach as many people now and that’s gotta hurt. TES 6 will likely never sell as many copies now as Skyrim has 🤷

Like we were talking about in another article it’s always PS in the middle of this conversation but remember Bethesda was good to Nintendo too. DooM, Skyrim, and I think Wolfenstein were all on Switch.

Diablo 2 resurrected, Back 4 Blood, and Elden Ring are my next 3 new release purchases so that made this an easy choice!

Still need to buy FFVII. Mass Effect Trilogy, and Ratchet & Clank.

RIP wallet 😬

I’ve followed E3 closely since 2008ish, and in my opinion the downward spiral began in 2016.

2015 as a whole, not just E3, was just so stacked with games (Bloodborne, Witcher 3, Metal Gear Solid 5, Halo 5, probably a bunch more I’m forgetting) that it seems like we got a lot of weak showings in the following years.

I think companies just realized they don’t have to share the limelight anymore on big announcements. That’s why Sony backed out, Nintendo started doing “treehouses” and didn’t even unveil the switch at E3. Bethesda Game Studios and From Software have had little relevancy at E3 for years.

In a world where there’s so much competing for consumers attention why let someone else steal your spotlight?

Edit: also to anyone saying Nintendo had a great E3 please quit believing headlines and watch their actual presentation. Getting hyped for re-releases of old Mario party maps and Skyward Sword? Metroid 5 didn’t make up for that snoozefest!

Can’t wait for the “Day 1 on game pass, $70 everywhere” headlines for this!

Just kidding, but anyways my initial reaction was that it sounds promising. Hopefully they time the release right so it’s not up against Elden Ring (or even FF16 for that matter).

Also that name is 😑👎

@Paranoimia

They said in a recent showing that if you want to have the game choose cards for you it will, so you never have to spend time going through them.

This reminds me a lot of the Gears 4 release where they allowed you to buy the ultimate edition to get content early, and everyone eventually got access to it. It’s the right way to go and that’s cool there’s a system to unlock content via gameplay as well.

Outside of PC purchases I will always buy physical copies, so Game Pass getting these games has never really bothered me. I mean your more so renting it right? Sure that $15 let’s you rent a TON of games but you’ll never truly own them like you do with a purchase.

IMO

I mean with Final Fantasy 16 coming hopefully within a year, Elden Ring early 2022, and FF Origins being announced today this just seems like a really crowded genre; especially for a game that looks pretty generic tbh 🤷

Unfortunately underwhelmed. Elden Ring comes out early 2022. It’ll be hard for this game to compete for my time.

Kind of a joke it’s releasing in November of 2022... I mean outside of Halo this November there’s not a lot to be excited about in the Xbox ecosystem anytime soon.

That also means Elder Scrolls 6, and Fallout 5, are still many years away. How will those games even run on XSX? Is there a point to getting the Series X at all?

@ShogunRok

This mans been spitting straight truth for days now folks.

“The cast photo gives us serious Riverdale vibes, which, honestly, is a plus in our book.“

Really? For a Resident Evil show...

Cannot wait to play through it again. I usually play through it once a year, but I’ve been holding off in 2021 for the PS5 release. I’ve bought it 3 times already; once at full price and twice for the $20 complete edition.

Really surprised this game doesn’t get more coverage. Left 4 Dead 2 was (and still kinda is) an absolute phenomena and in 12 years nothings really taken it’s place for that genre. I could see this blowing up.

Looks really good, but you know there’s still so much they’re hiding. Can’t wait to see what changes they make to co-op and PvP.

Also no idea how I’ve never heard of Back 4 Blood until today! Looks great

@ShogunRok

Facts

Looks so good. Hopefully they learn from some of their Dark Souls 3 mistakes 🙏 👍

I’m so mad he indirectly talked smack about a corporation I’ve bought products from! To arms!

Looks great, but until the Cronus Zen and similar devices are outright banned I won’t touch online shooters anymore.

If I had a PS4 Pro that I traded in when I got the PS5 this would probably upset me. However considering I gave away my PS4 in 2016 when I built my PC I don’t have a problem with this.
