Re: Hot Wheels Unleashed 2: Turbocharged (PS5) - A Fast and Furiously Fantastic Follow-Up

@MFTWrecks The physics and handling feel pretty much identical to the first game, which is no bad thing. Occasionally there is some erratic behaviour with the vehicle collision but for the most part it is solid. Yes you can still stray off course, this is mainly so you can utilise shortcuts and cut long corners instead of drifting them. I’d say there’s more areas to go off course this time around since the additional terrain areas don’t have sides to the track instead it’s just marked out with cones.

@Colour it’s definitely longer than the first game, we ended up with just over 40 hours on our first playthrough, exploring most areas. Obviously this may be shorter for others since they may explore less and there’ll also be guides out to follow by release. Also I’m sure it’s completable in 10-15 hours if you straight line the main objectives and ignore most of the enemies but where’s the fun in that.

Re: Mini Review: Teslagrad 2 (PS5) - Puzzle Platformer Focused on Tremendous Traversal

@sketchturner @CWill97 @Truegamer79 Just to clear this up. There are a few examples of the unfair boss fights throughout, the moose being the main one. I say they are unfair since damage to the boss has to be dealt indirectly via the other enemies and this mechanic requires a lot more luck than it did skill. I spent a good 40-60mins on this single boss and it was very infuriating as it ruined the fast pacing of the rest of the game. I can also confirm it’s not because “the reviewer just couldn’t hack it cause they stink” as I saw this game through to its conclusion and even hopped back in to unlock all the secrets and collectibles for the platinum.

Re: Mini Review: After the Fall (PSVR2) - Standout Co-Op Apocalypse Shooter

@riceNpea The gunplay is honestly very solid with a good variety of weapons to choose from, pistols, shotguns, assault rifles, sub machine guns, etc. As for reloading the game gives you the option for a manual reload that allows you to remove and replace individual clips into your guns or the alternative is auto reload where you tap the X button to release the empty clip and then tap the gun against your ammo bag which is around your waist. As for the feel of the guns, each one has a very different weight and feel to shooting them since both the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers are in use here. Hope this helps.

Re: Mini Review: Demeo (PSVR2) - Dungeons and Dragons Experience Is One Roll Away from Perfection

@Jayslow The game can be played entirely offline but is limited to single player, it’s a shame there isn’t local co-op. Also the game has been out on PC since 2021 and the devs have continued supporting the game with updates therefore the community is quite large and very active so it’s great that PSVR2 has crossplay. I can’t see the community and amount of active players being a problem here at all.
