Glad to hear it’s as great as ever! Mass Effect 1 used to be my least favorite but after a 2016 series playthough it became my favorite of the three. Looking forward to going through it all again after I’ve spent more time with TBC Classic and RE: 8.
Looks great, but I need to play the first one still and I am currently waiting for a PS5 upgrade. Sony’s been quietly doing these upgrades so hopefully it’s soon. Would still love an upgrade for Spiderman PS4 and Bloodborne.
I have to admit, I find it funny that 5 years ago when Play Anywhere was announced the sentiment from PS fans was “Xbox no longer has exclusives why bother buying that console anymore.” Now the sentiment is: “I’m ok with this because it’s better for everyone and doesn’t hurt my enjoyment ☀️🌈☮️“
Well, at least some people out there are calling this like it is. Not trying to harp on PS for doing this but the people who lambasted Xbox for doing this should stick to their convictions.
Weird I always heard it needed basic themes for the OS to operate quickly. But no surprise modders are picking up the slack for Nintendo now. Seems like it standard operating procedure for companies to put out half baked products and the fans have to fix them lol.
I won a Gears 3 tournament on launch night and got the Gears 3 Xbox with the game. Good times. Darn shame the campaigns just aren’t what they used to be.
I actually just picked up Volume 1 of the deluxe edition last month. Haven’t been able to get very far into it because of my schedule. I’ve seen the original anime, the golden arc, and some of the new anime though. Great series. I always name my fighting type in Pokémon Guts 👍
Unfortunately until new faceplates come out I don’t see a ton of point in these since we already have 2 controllers. Both would look really out of place next to the all white PS5, controller dock, and 3D headset 🤷
I have maybe put 5 hours into PC gaming since I got my PS5 in November. Between my PS4 backlog and a steady slew of PS5 releases happening I doubt I’ll do much PC gaming over the next couple of years...
Outside of WoW: Classic TBC which I must habitually play without choice😐
I’d at least be kinda interested to try it if there was an official PS5 patch and some kind of bundle that includes everything. The idea of hunting Mothman out in the WV hills sounds fun enough.
Lmao because of my work schedule this gives me an hour and a half after work to come home and play this. I have a 45ish minute drive which means it’s more like 45 minutes, minus a few minutes for unexpected stuff. As a long time RE fan who will most likely be getting this near the launch this demo schedule is really irritating.
Woah woah woah dumb Twitter people aside can we just acknowledge how anti-consumer it is of these big companies to release the inferior version of a game 6 months - a year before the superior version? Reading that Monster Hunter line re-opened an old wound for me with Capcom and Rockstar on that one.
Having the console version release far before the PC version encourages “double-dipping” and doesn’t benefit anyone besides the shareholders. Even when the PC version is taking longer to develop, which is understandable, it hurts the fans to force them to chose between missing out on a launch or paying for a game twice. For most big releases there’s no issue whatsoever with getting a game out on all platforms (or if there is a delay the inferior version comes last aka DooM on Switch) but for whatever reason in 2018 we had two huge releases do this. Capcom is even doing it again with Monster Hunter: Rise coming to PC in 2022.
Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition, Resident Evil 2: REmake, and Resident Evil HD are my favorite RE experiences. Also co-op in 5 is surprisingly really fun.
Anyone that hasn’t experienced Resident Evil 4 on the Wii, do yourself a favor and look into it. It is without a doubt the de facto Resident Evil experience.
I actually just got a Wii to play GameCube games and sure enough I had to get RE 4 as well.
I have almost no faith in Konami doing anything good with the Metal Gear franchise without Kojima. It’s cool Rising was enjoyable without his involvement but I think Survive is a sign of things to come.
Also mind blown 🤯 that Rising came out in 2013! I thought for sure it released before I was in college.
Can we just back up like 6 months to when I got absolutely lambasted in the comments for saying the multiplayer would be DoA. The quality of the game itself being really poor when it released was genuinely surprising to me, but I think the writing was on the wall for the multiplayer mode.
Anyways random guy who hated on my opinion a long time ago I TOLD YOU SO!
It needs to be spectacular otherwise I can’t see myself getting it, knowing that Infinity Ward is back up in 2022. I got burnt out on the series when Ghosts came out (never bought it luckily) and I could see it happening again.
I’ve been looking at getting an original Wii and a Gameboy Advance SP to enjoy my favorite era of Nintendo again. I really wish Nintendo would just add GBA games to their VC on the 3DS or Switch. Same goes for GameCube and Wii games.
But oh well. I’ve waited for Nintendo to do this for so long it’s time to just buy everything on eBay. I swear if Nintendo made these titles available they’d make bank.
On the PlayStation note I still have my PS3 so I’d love to see PS2 emulation. PlayStation legacy games just don’t tickle me the same way Nintendo’s do though.
Did anybody else have a dentist that had video games for them to play when they were growing up? I remember our dentist had a headset that you would put on and they’d let you choose from a bunch of GameCube games. Good times. 🪥🕹

I’d love to get Alyx on PSVR2, but what’s even more important for me is PSVR2 be quality. Good tracking, comfortable, good sound or room to use the Pulse 3D, stuff like that.
If PSVR2 doesn’t look like it’s up to snuff I’ll have to look into getting a different VR set after I get a new graphics card next year.
