@Jrs1 I'm in the same boat - I like Ubisoft games in general. I'm subscribed to Ubisoft+ at the moment and enjoying playing through a few of their games. They aren't perfect obviously but there is absolutely an element of 'bandwagon jumping' in everyone constantly slagging them off.
@DaniPooo don't start with the "if you can't afford it" nonsense. I've got £800 spare, the problem is that this is simply too expensive. If it's worth it to you, great. I hope you enjoy it. But your little comment there isn't on.
Think I might actually do a ubisoft plus sub for a few months. There's this, AC Shadows, Mirage, Prince of Persia and Avatar that have all piqued my interest the last while, so 4 months or so of sub would be better value than buying them all probably.
I liked the original FF13, but there's no denying that it got a bit boring with all the walking in a straight line. It was at least 20 hours too long for me. Preferred it when it opened up.
It still looks great to my eyes - a 4k remaster is all it needs.
Forza 5 (or 4 for that matter) - PS gamers in for a treat as they're brilliant games. Bit too much of the naff pretend social media stuff (especially in 5) but the racing is second to none, literally. As good as it gets.
And if it's Starfield then also great news for PS owners. Had dozens of hours of fun with that and will go back at some point and have dozens more. My advice would be to please try it for yourself. The criticism it got was bizarrely disproportionate.
It's comment sections like this that make me think I've outgrown the internet. Phil's comments were nothing more than a bit of banter. Why is everyone so thin skinned?!
Not for me personally. Makes no difference to how the games play and games look absolutely fantastic for the most part. More than happy to stick with what I've got for a few years.
@arsmolinarc funny you should mention the PSP - I've gone on holiday to Cornwall for a week and charged up my Vita to bring along. I'd forgotten just how brilliant that system is. Packed full of great games. I could probably not bother with another console and wouldn't get bored for months. Hopefully Sony will revisit the idea some day.
🤣 didn't we already have this story a few weeks ago? One unsubstantiated leak and all the 'in the knows' predicting the death of Xbox. And turns out it was a few games being ported. Some of the comments on this site were embarrassing - juvenile gloating. And for nothing. And here we are again - another unsubstantiated comment from a not particularly respected journalist and it's the death of Xbox again. Some more games will be ported. We all know that. But we know nothing else. Xbox will be around for the foreseeable and that's clearly a good thing for the industry as a whole. Some of you should spend more time playing games and less time reading nonsense from 'in the knows' on Twitter. You'd not even realise this console wars rubbish still existed.

Re: Star Wars Outlaws' Rescue Roadmap Provides a Snapshot of Modern PS5 Gaming
Well I like it.
Re: PS5 Pro Announced, Costs $700 and Out in November
@nedbvai what a strangely spiteful attitude to have.
Re: Talking Point: Is PS5 Pro Way Too Expensive?
Current gen consoles look fantastic to me eyes. I simply don't feel l need an upgrade at this point in time. The price point seals it.

Re: Rumour: Xbox to Announce a 'Big' Game Coming to PS5 at Gamescom
@AldusRavencorn Forza Motorsport is competition for GT, not the Horizon series. Within the racing genre, Horizon and GT could hardly be further apart.

@Th3solution you need to look up the word 'objective' as you don't seem to know what it means.

Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows' 'Smaller' Open World Map Is Still a Healthy Chunk of Japan
Ha, Origins had a flipping massive map anyway. Odyssey and Valhalla were just too big by a good chunk.
