Yeah, it's disappointing to see technical bugs like that crop up in a game that's supposedly been gold for months. I'd like to think that more time would have went into ironing these things out, but I can't say that I'm surprised it didn't.
@tenderbeefcake I can understand that. If you're looking for some good ol' problem solving, then I think this game will provide you with just that, no question. Always happy to help.
@NomNom @Splat Yeah. 'Strength' to break your controller in half after the 40th crash, 'Perception' to figure out what the heck's making it crash this time, 'Endurance' to stop yourself from giving up on it, 'Charisma' for when you're on the phone to Bethesda's support team, 'Intelligence' so that youre actually able to fix it, 'Agility' for trying to accomplish as much as you can before the next crash, and 'Luck' because, well, you'll need it.
@SteveButler2210 I think they're unlocked by getting Glorbs, yeah. A good way to get them might be to blast through the easier Helladeck missions on offer and rack some Glorbs up there, instead, since you get roughly three a level.
@SteveButler2210 @sub12 Yeah, that's very true. If you ever feel like there's ever too much going on at once, though, I'd recommend taking a step back and making it easier for yourself ahead of time. One of the starting characters, Aimy, is great for this because her charged attack can hit enemies through walls. Use her right, and by the time your runner enters the fray, all of the bad guys will already be dead.
@JoeBlogs Unfortunately not, but I can maybe see it being patched in at some point.
@xMEADx I'd argue that without the time limit, there'd be no challenge, though - utilising the Time Stop ability in order to cut corners and save a few seconds is what it's all about. Take that away, and it'd be too easy, don't you think?
My dream cast:
DJ Khaled as Nathan Timothy Drake
Willem Dafoe as Victor "Sully" Sullivan
Troy Baker as the ghostly voice of Elena Fisher
And featuring Mel Gibson as the franchise's biggest and baddest villain to date, the enigmatic "Dr. Scrumps"
(Note to whoever is making this movie - I haven't bothered to check - Mr. Dafoe should
deliver his lines exclusively through gritted teeth)

Re: Hideo Kojima Partners with PlayStation to Deliver Compelling New PS4 Exclusive
Man, everybody's going to be really disappointed when it's revealed that he's just been helping Cerny make Knack 2.

Re: Talking Point: Did PlayStation Experience 2015 Meet Your Expectations?
It started off great, then took a pretty big nosedive after that. There were some cool moments here and there, but I expected a much stronger ending.
Re: Hands On: Has Just Cause 3 on PS4 Blown Us Away?
Yeah, it's disappointing to see technical bugs like that crop up in a game that's supposedly been gold for months. I'd like to think that more time would have went into ironing these things out, but I can't say that I'm surprised it didn't.

Funniest article on the site. 10/10
Re: Shepard Signs Off in Mass Effect Andromeda Teaser Trailer
Dragon Age x Mass Effect crossover confirmed. That's clearly Varric Tethras that you can see floating past the ship at 1:14.

Re: Xbox Chief Thinks the PS4 May Have Microsoft Beat
Why do they call it an Xbox One? Because when you see it, you turn one degree, and walk away.
Re: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 5 Breaks Its Neck on PS4
This article might just have the best opening line ever.
Re: Nathan Drake Originally Looked Like a Douche
He looks like Jimmy Fallon did a Mad Max skit.

Re: Review: Kung Fury: Street Rage (PS4)

Re: Koei Tecmo Is Teasing a Title That Apparently Isn't a Warriors Game
It's clearly going to be Dead or Alive 5: Ultimate Final Last Round Edition (This is the Last One, We Promise) 2.
Re: Bloody Hell, Don't Show the Kids This Witcher 3 Trailer
The monster designs in this game look incredible.

@ShogunRok Are you proud? Do you think you're smart, using a tagline like that? No respect.
Re: Review: Saints Row IV: Re-Elected (PlayStation 4)
Male Voice 3 for life.
Re: Actually, PS4 Had the Most Great Games This Year
@gr8apeb8 I think it might be a flavour of Ribena. Tastes a bit like stale bread to be honest
Re: Talking Point: What's Your Favourite PlayStation Startup Sequence?
It has to be the PSone for that spine-tingling, curious little jingle
Re: First Impressions: PS4 Puzzler MouseCraft Whiffs of Tetris, Lemmings, and Mature Cheddar
Hole-y hell, there are some bad cheese puns in here. I mean, they wheely stink. I expected feta of you, Push Square.
Re: Rumour: BioWare Shepards the Mass Effect Trilogy onto PS4
I would buy the ME trilogy on PS4 faster than you can say 'calibrations'.

Gonna probably finish off Assassin's Creed: Black Flag if I have the time. I've been enjoying it immensely so far
Re: Soapbox: Assassin's Creed's Modern Day Component Is Holding the Series Back
Never liked the modern day stuff and I still don't.
