Borderlands and Portia for me please.

I'd be happy with October. With the remaster coming out in 2 days, plus Rage 2 and other soon-to-be releases, it gives me enough time to catch up on these and other games.

Doesn't bother me really. I don't own either game so I can't complain. And I'll also be too busy playing Borderlands 1, Generation Zero and Yoshi's Crafted World.

Finally! At least we'll have Borderlands 1 to kill time.

@LiamCroft I joined a random session the other night and after about 2 hours the host left and I got booted. When I reloaded my game all progress was kept. Not sure if this is supposed to happen or I just got lucky. Can't complain really.

There definitely room for improvement in most aspects of the game, but I don't see it any worse than Anthems decaying game or Fallout 76's mess.

As soon as I read "explosive, experimental, and action-packed nature of Just Cause 4's Solís", i knew this review would be off. JC4 was one of the most boring and worst games of last year, both in performance and gameplay. This game is a better end product of what it is meant to be.

Generation Zero's world is supposed to be empty and the reliance on markers for quests is just hand holding these days. Time to use your brain and look around. I've spent an hour searching for a certain clue to a mission but in the end I had walked past it 5 times because I had not read the previous clue correctly. I wasn't angry at the game for showing me where it was, I was slapping myself in the forehead.

It's not meant to be a non stop action packed game, and because of this its sets the mood of being what its supposed to be: teenagers with little to no experience fighting robots. Yes the gunplay is clunky but IMO it adds to to realism as everyone can't be a Captain Price. You also have to get out of the run and gun mindset where every other game makes you invincible. I was getting killed easily and quickly until I started playing smart and sneaking around robot patrols, only taking them on once I had planned an attack with flares, explosives and guns.

I do agree that the inventory system is clunkingly bad and needs fixing to make it more streamline, but other than that I'm enjoying the game immensely. I was a bit unsure for the first hour, but after finding clues and getting in the mood of being in a bleak and lifeless world, I really began to enjoy the game for what it is. Something different than all the other predictable shooters at the moment. Also when you jump into a 4 player co-op game it makes it more believable.

3/10 is a harsh score. I'd give it a 7/10 personally with room for improvement in certain areas. Plus its almost half the price of most new release games.

I've had NMS since launch, and while it was disappointing, it's only gotten better every update. This game has been screaming VR since day one. I'll definitely be jumping back in for a fresh new game.

@jacobia maybe a VR option will be included in the game!?!?

Insert extreme happy face here

My guess is a streaming service, where you can stream to any smart TV. And you download games to the controller, (prob from the steam library only), which is this actual system/console. Also Netflix, YouTube, etc will also be streamable from the controller. Just another Ouya/Virtual Boy, etc, except this one captures all your personal data and WiFi settings.

I don't care if its a remaster or a reveal, just give me more Borderlands!

Totally forgot about Firestorm. Haven't played BF5 for months. Might try it out when it comes.

Can anyone confirm if this plays similar to LEGO Worlds? I watched some gameplay on YouTube and it seemed there was lots of little menus and choosing certain objects to build, more than just breaking and building with the one button. I enjoy the simplicity of the LEGO games, and found the LEGO Worlds game to be less fun.

I purchased an Xbox One last year, as i passed my Xbox 360 onto my son a few years ago, and wanted to try a few MS exclusives. After about 2 months of playing State of Decay 2 (which i enjoyed the most), Sea of Thieves and Forza, i ended up selling the console. Why? Because i found that those games weren't holding my attention like the PS4 and Switch games do. Plus 90% of the other games are also available on either Sony or Nintendo's platforms. MS really need to do something special or different with the next console. IMO the Xbox One had the worst dashboard and console performance of the all the systems. Moving around the dashboard was slow and always delayed, as was the internet connection. And way too many ads.

I just couldn't finish FC5. You were repeating the same quests three-fold, and by the time I'd beaten the second sibling I was over it and couldn't do it again. This setting looks interesting, even though its just the same location with a new splash of colour, but i can see myself getting bored real quickly. I'll wait for FC6 or FC7 or whatever the next installment is called.

Agree with those that have already said it, i wouldnt call TLOU a horror game. Thriller/drama yes.

RE7, Alien Isolation, and RE2 would be my top 3. I couldn't even finish RE7 in VR, while Alien has the most tense momenta in gaming, and RE2 brings back the good old jump scares and gore.

Finally got to download the demo, been waiting weeks/months to try it. I first played Tetris on the original GameBoy back in the 80's, and thought how can this version be so special since everyone is raving on about it. All I had to play was the first level of the demo and it hooked me. The audio visual elements intertwined into the gameplay is something special. Easily one of the best VR games, probably equal to Astrobot, and even one of the best PS4 games period. Instant buy.

@jly1987 fair enough if designing and making your own game, but when making a popular and established franchise such as Battlefield, its a bad idea to replace gameplay mechanics with money making ideas. Spit out an unfinished game with missing modes and maps, and of course you won't make sales. I enjoy Battlefield V but it still feels incomplete for some reason, and not just for the Battle Royale mode which I'm not interested in.

So greedy. If EA listened to their fans or even let them design the game, they'd probably sell double the amount.

Got an invite but not sure if I'll download. The only thing scarier than being chased by Mr X in Resident Evil 2 is a system crash before you get to save your game at a typewriter.

I played the closed alpha last year and enjoyed it. Didn't pre-order the game but will definitely buy once it comes out. I can see it lasting longer than Destiny as there seems to be more variety with gameplay, enemies, and customization.

"The vast majority of the team is hard at work envisioning future experiences, enemies, and ways to play the Guardian you've been building since 2014."

So in other words, rinse and repeat for Destiny 3: same enemies, different colours.

I don't remember signing up but received a code yesterday! Oh well, guess I'll try it out.

I wonder if the game comes with a built in step counter?

Please be true. The Borderlands franchise is one of my faves, and this will keep me busy until Borderlands 3 is released. A remaster instead of a port would be nicer.

I played the closed alpha and actually enjoyed it more than I thought. Felt like I was playing as iron man with a gun, with the flying, hovering, shoulder mounted rockets, etc. The world felt more open and alive than destiny, even though most parts were closed off for the demo. This one has potential if they give you enough customisation and gameplay variety. But then again EA has a way of f'ing things up, i.e. Battlefront 2.

No other game hit me emotionally like RDR2. It was a sad story of failure, one which you couldn't prevent, but then ended with a story of redemption and even more sadness as the credits rolled, knowing what the future held for certain characters. GOW had a cool story, but to me had no ups and downs as RDR2 had. It had its moments but it never hit me emotionally. I just felt it was a story of a disappointed father and revenge. As others have also said, GOW is a tad overrated to me.

@Marios-love-child same here. I'm waiting for a demo to try out before handing over full price.

Borderlands 2 is in my top 3 games of all time. This was an instant buy. Because of the fast paced shooting, dodging and jumping in the game, the move controllers are too clumsy for me. DS4 all the way. I'd like to try aim support if it's ever patched in the future, but I'm totally happy with the current package. Good to see another full length game given the VR treatment, as there's too many 2-4 hour "demos" out there. Highly recommended for those who want a single player FPS on the VR, with plenty of replay ability, randomness and humour. 9.5/10

Yeah I held off buying one or two games last week for something good this week. Guess I'll have to wait for another sale.

@Enuo I'm guessing that they won't drop the price of JC4 until after they release the upcoming patch, and only if it still looks and performs poorly. It has its fun moments, but just a chore to play with visual bugs and crashes constantly ruining the fun.

Watched gameplay of this, as the visuals stood out for me, and looked interesting when first announced. But going by other reviews and videos, it's just a walking simulator, with nothing to explore, just moving forward and listening to the story. And is over in 90 minutes, 45 minutes if you don't collect anything.

Totally agree with the review. It has its cool moments, but the missions are dull and repetitive. The visuals are some of the worst I've seen on a PS4, and they've sucked the fun out of open world gameplay. They've given us less things to blow up, with only enemy bases being destroyable, and no collectibles to collect, giving you no real reason to go exploring.

@RogerRoger I totally agree. I thought my game wasn't installed properly. The textures are shocking, no water effects, lighting flashes light and dark so I'm not sure if its day or night or both. Gameplay seems ok so far, I'm only about 2 hours in. But they've removed destructible chaos objects from villages, so what's the point of having hundreds of villages with nothing to do in them? It's a weird structure, I hope the game gets better and it gets patched soon.

I've only run into a few random killers in my 20+ hours if online. If they continually harass me or kill me I'll return fire on them, then their horse, and them switch servers. Half the time I end up on a server on my own, which gives me team to hunt, collect and prepare. But I don't mind the economy system that mist people complain about. As grooverider said, if we all maxed out straight away it would get boring very quickly. There's plenty of challenges to complete.

I've had no problem with online. Except for the multiplayer shootout modes, I'm yet to be killed by another player. Either lucky or unlucky. Yes it can be a grind, but it would be boring if they gave you every weapon and outfit from the start.

Bring it boah!

I think they just need to rewrite/remake the game code and use that as a patch.

Fortnite GOTY? The world really is getting dumber. Astrobot is a far better VR game than Skyrim IMO.

I predict an announcement of PS5 next year.

I'm happy with the controls. Not every character/game can be a superhero with speed, strength, etc.

Played this on Xbox one months ago. One of the worst looking games on current generation consoles. Played like garbage too. It won't survive with Fortnite, COD Blackout and H1Z1.

RDR2 is the perfect game IMO. I loved RDR1 and played that for years, but this game improves on everything and gives more. I feel the controls are clunky on purpose to give the feeling of weight and movement speed in the wild west. Things weren't fast back then and if controls and gameplay was sped up to feel more arcadey, then the illusion would be broken and you would not feel part of the world, but just be another superhuman character like in most other games.

The way you can hunt, explore and collect for hours upon hours, if you wish, is amazing and the visuals, audio and characters are top notch. As the game went on I grew to love some characters and hate others like no other game. And when I finished the story the game only got better. I can't wait to 100% the game and start all over again just like I did with the first game. Not GOTY but Game Of All Time for me.

Even though earlier Bethesda games have been visually OK in regards to open world design and detail, their character control and movement has always been and felt a generation behind. They really need to change or update their game engine, as after so many games and years, every game of theirs is starting to look and play exactly the same. I enjoyed Skyrim back when it was released but unfortunately that was their pinnacle.

I have to agree with all the "game of this generation" remarks. RDR was my all-time fave game until BOTW came along and just pipped it at the post. But after playing about 10 hours of this I can see this being my all-time fave. So much to do, see, and experience. I can see myself playing this for months and years to come. And that's just the single player.

I pre-ordered the deluxe edition with large map at my local game shop for midnight pickup. But then I couldn't be bothered going down so I bought from PS Store as well. I picked up the physical game this morning, kept the map and gave t the game to my daughter.

Wowzers!!! A definite buy for me. BL2 is in my top 3 games of all time. So glad I'm upgrading to a ps4 pro today.

Too much hand-holding these days in games. I hope R* have an option that removes all waypoints, etc, so I can just explore and discover on my own. In a world of wild west its the only way to play IMO.

@ztpayne7 did u finish it, or did you experience it? You know there's 26 different "endings" right? You'll get the best one after about 5 playthroughs......life changing.

Where's the next gameplay trailer?
