The game is not mentioned, so in spite of previous rumors, it could very well be Killzone, as a Remaster... or as a GAAS Reboot, who knows. All in all, it's no new IP though, which is too bad....
If the show ends up with interwoven comedy threads, then maybe. But if it's supposed to follow the games (which is HIGHLY recommended if it wants to have any kind of success) then he ain't a good fit. Not for Sheppard anyway. As Wrex maybe? That would be fun to see.
You're reading too much into this.
A graphics-heavy AAA game will have no choice but to be Pro compatible from the get-go.
But you can't expect every AA game with lower graphical prowess to be like that. It's a waste of time for mostly nothing tangible. If for the dev of such a game there's a choice between allocating time to polish or to making it Pro ready, I (as a gamer) would prefer they do the former first, and the latter after launch.
May be worth waiting for, but I'm not a patient man. Gonna give it a go on PC at launch, since it's also on game pass. Hope it measures up to the hype all throughout the adventure, and doesn't end up being boring after a dozen hours like Bethesda's Starfield...
I've said it before, some weeks ago actually: LEGO should release separate sets and figurines based on the Horizon Lego game.
Sets that can function separately or can be combined to form a big settlement with different buildings, people, machines etc - similar to their train cities.
That would be cool!
It’ll be interesting to see how this performs. We were really impressed with the game in a recent hands on...
Ah c'mon, Stephen's review is in progress right now, and you (collectively speaking) have certainly formed a better idea about the final game than what was gleaned from a few hour hands-on that happened weeks back...
It's just that you can't talk about it.... yet ^__^
In my european country, at least, it was available for preorder continuously in multiple stores ever since Sony gave it the green light, and it's available for purchase today too.
I guess the 800 Euros price doesn't seem that appealing to too many people these days (myself included)...
@C25CLOUD As I said, "I wish" - not holding my breath, obviously.
@LowDefAl Miyazaki wanted to do more with Bloodborne but can't because it's up to Sony - as per his own statement a few years ago.
As for "money making" - the IP has a ton of potential if continued properly. The 1st game set a very good base, even though it's held back by it's PS4 exclusivity. A multiplatform sequel directed by the same man has a ton of potential to be successful.
Good for them. I wish From Software would do the same with Bloodborne, and save it from a slumbering death in Sony's forgotten libraries.... And sooner rather than later, while Miyazaki is still in the game directing business, and willing to do a sequel.
I trust my own instincts when making a decision about a game's worth, not once relied on Metacritic scores or any 1 single source for that matter.
Gather info from multiple sources, see trailers, gameplay vids and a few reviews and make up your own mind.
You may be right, you may be wrong, but it was your decision, and no one else's.
Risk is part of life, if you're too afraid to take it and own it, you're too afraid to live.
I've just said exactly so yesterday about Bloodborne, in a comment on the previous article about PS5 Pro improving PS4 games: "As for the resolution... maybe it'll make it a bit clearer, but without improved textures that won't serve us much."
Well, there you go ^__^
What's with the Bloodborne image ? It's FPS can't be improved by the PS5 Pro even if they wanted, due to being hard capped at 30fps - not something that can be changed without meddling with it's code... As for the resolution... maybe it'll make it a bit clearer, but without improved textures that won't serve us much.
And here I was thinking they just snapped their fingers and popped it into existence... Too bad for the first party portfolio though, wish they had a better vision for that too, for the duration of this gen's lifetime...
I bought a PS5 since 2020, 1 month after launch.
Gave it to my son this year, and didn't feel the need get another.
The first party games I was playing on it are already on PC, or I've played them too much to get into them again.
And first party titles are the main reason I bought at least 1 Playstation console of each generation since way back in 2006 (PS2 slim, PS3 phat, PSP slim, PS4 Pro, PS5). Hell, I still have the PS3 and PS4 Pro, and they still work.
But the way things went with PS5 since launch, getting the next gen is under serious question.
If Sony doesn't make some much needed additions to it's first party portfolio, most likely I'll be skipping the PS6.
Coincidence or not, Sony reduced by a lot the first party game presentations and setting launch dates after June-July 2022, after the overblown "critiques" surrounding the launch date announcement of God Of War Ragnarok. Sony SMS was targeted this time, they received quite bit of hate and even threats on their social media accounts because they didn't announce it at the end of June if I remember correctly...
Soon after this and also given the previous The Last Of Us Part 2 similar "happenings", Sony drastically reduced all communications and announcements regarding it's own studios and what they're working on. It simply became it's new policy, say nothing until very close to the launch date...
Although I agree that Sony took it to extreme, by not even giving a broad roadmap of what we can expect from Playstation over the next few years, I can't really blame them...
I know it's not the only contributing factor, but I bet it's a good part of it...
On the back of what we saw with Star Wars Outlaws, we need to make sure that we come with an impeccable player experience on day one
Translation: "it was perfectly known inside Ubisoft that those 2 games will launch in 2024 in an unfinished state, and still we gave Star Wars the green light.
And it's only because of negative player reactions resulting in low sales, and that we really need the money from AC Shadows sales to survive, that we decided to delay and actually finish it. Otherwise we would have launched it now without a second thought."
The effing nerve on some of the devs and publishers these days...
Releasing a third set of covers specifically for the PS5 Pro seems a little ludicrous to us. Honestly I wasn't expecting either part of the cover to fit.... seems they slipped on that one.
@get2sammyb Speaking of devs: I wonder if the devs that stated that they "don't see the use of a PS5 Pro console since they didn't even reach PS5's full potential" are already among the first to make patches to improve their games, because on the Pro - they can.
Played Worms Armageddon a lot back in the day, on my first PC actually... a lot of fun it was, especially with friends. The Baseball Bat + Low Gravity combination was the coolest most satisfying way to punish your opponents ^__^ Oh and I still remember the voice when the Holy Bomb exploded saying "Haaaalelujah!"... fun times!
Alas I don't think I'd have the patience to play it nowadays, not more than a few levels anyway, for nostalgia's sake. Good luck to the ones that still do, though, get a bunch of friends around you and have fun!
Played this back in the day on PS3 and liked it.
If i were to sum it up in a few words: It's a good game to play once. You won't feel the need to do so again.
Not good from a layoff POV.
But I'm glad an MMO/mobile game is not being made.
They should concentrate their efforts on Horizon 3, instead of more diluting and milking that will certainly lead to IP exhaustion.
We already have 2 AAA games, 2 hefty DLC's, a Remaster, 2 PC versions, a VR game, a Lego game, a TV show at least in the talks, a multiplayer game in development apparently, and an eventual Horizon 3 sequel.
Sony should give it a much needed rest for 1 year or 2, before they lose more than they gain.
While it's not the return I was hoping this IP would have, I'll get the Remaster day 1.
The whole Kain franchise has true potential to bring in new audiences if handled properly - a lot more than they are aiming for with this release. Bring Amy back for some more story, make a prequel for Raziel before the events of SR1, Remake the two Blood omen games, include unreleased content etc.
Maybe if it'll have good sales, they'll consider making more games.
And if nothing else - at the very least - remaster Defiance, and give closure to Raziel's ark.
@AhmadSumadi Your comment reminds me of a kids song my son was watching a couple of years ago, something along the lines of "Do you love broccoli? Yes! Do you love ice cream? Yes! Do you love broccoli icecream? No, yucky!" ^__^
Now that the game will be out next month, maybe Lego will bring a new range of Horizon sets to the market.
That maybe could be used as stand alone or as components of a bigger whole, that would be a great idea. So, for example, you can put together a settlement surrounded by wilderness sprinkled with various machines and wild life (something similar to the towns and trains you can assemble from multiple sets).
Really tough shoes to fill there, Lance has done a very charismatic Sylens, replacing him won't be an easy task.
This change was inevitable, however, Sylens is one of the core pillars of Horizon franchise... the "Loki" to Aloy's "Thor" so to speak... they can't simply pull him out for the next games, a replacement is the only solution going forward.
Very glad to see they didn't go for AI voice-over, and chose an actual actor. The best of luck to him!
Elden Ring was my first guess when I first saw the rumor, it's the most likely "inspirational" candidate from everything I've heard so far.
Another possibility would be Zelda Tears of the Kingdom,
depends of the game type and art direction they aim for, but it doesn't seem like their style...
Whatever the case, it was high time they develop a new IP, they've been stuck on Uncharted and TloU since PS3 era.
It doesn't matter if it won't offer the cinematic experience they've become so well known for, as long as it has a good story and engaging gameplay.
Didn't encounter any of those until now.
However a few were in the Hotel it seems (that's where I ended yesterday's session, right at the entrance) - and at the last boss fight. Glad they fixed those too.
After they solve all of the nasty ones, maybe they also manage to fix the water streaming directly from exterior lights in the starting section of the game (roofs not ending directly above, rain not pouring, no logical way for the streams to exist).
And those same vertical water streams passing right through James, without any impact, like he wasn't even there.
Minor things, of course, but they chip away at the immersion.
Fun game. Too many similarities with previous games for it's own good, however.
The IP shout be given a rest for a few years. No DLC should be done for SM2.
Bring it back later with fresh ideas for the 3rd game.
Some people really can't wait for the next piece of news to come around, so they can start complaining again...
Insomniac should do no DLC. SM2 already feels a bit... less... than expected for a sequel. It's fun but also a bit stale, too similar to the previous 2 games, SM1 and SM-MM.
It would certainly benefit from a few years break, and a fresh new direction.
For now it's best if they concentrate all of their efforts on Wolverine until it's out, and make it the best it can be.
new class feels fresh. Yeah. And so overpowered that it outshines all others. Maybe next season they'll balance them all properly. For now it's all about the $$$, plain and simple.
You know, using people to spread the word that the new class available only in the expansion absolutely rules the game... "Get the expansion if you wanna give it a go!"
Yeah. Pay those 40$ now, and don't worry, eh? They'll nerf it later.
Mercenaries. Well ok, the idea is not new. Not bad either. Mostly kinda useless, given the first point, since this season most of us puppeteer a SoulsBorne ...ups, Spiritborn, my bad!
Maybe next season it'll be more helpful after they re-balance the classes...
Awesome cinematics. Well this I'll give them, it has always been Blizzard's strong point. But that can't make up for the game's low points and undewhelming continuation of the story. And it doesn't. Maybe next expansion.
The game is FULL of bugs. Still. What's it been now, 1 year and 4 months? And still feels unfinished. See the daily patches, and the 10k words patch lists. Want one good example? Memory leak problem named Fenris still present in the game since 2023 - the game is gulping up 28GB RAM (!) of 32GB available, about 64GB (!!) of SWAP memory and 19GB (!!!) of VRAM of 24GB available (RTX 3090). So says the game's own log file, nothing invented here... Hell, D4 really rocks those high numbers isn't it? Look out "less graphically impressive" games, like Alan Wake 2, Silent Hill 2 Remake, etc - you can't even match what D4 can do! Anyway, still uncorrected. Maybe next season.
Drop problems for different materials - still present... for other materials now compared to previous seasons, so they've done something. Moved it in another area, much appreciated. Hey, maybe next season.
The list could go on, but you get the picture. It's also mentioned at the end of each point above.
Gonna go now. See you in Sanctuary!
And don't lose hope, yes? It'll get better in time! I've already told my 6 years old son he'll have a blast with it in high-school!
