Re: Rumour: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered Scores Separate Launch

TomKongPhooey

@daveofduncan @Tasuki Im one of the poor souls who forked out for this with IW at £80. I still havn't loaded up IW but I've got my 80quid worth of MWR since I got it. Was the practise they deployed right? Hell no but it was the correct move from a business point of view plain and simple.
Gawd I hated parting with that money for a game I know I wouldnt play but as a keen fan of MWR I was prepared to pay it to play a great game on this generation of consoles. I think most who did fork out have got their monies worth and are keenly awaiting all th new players who will come to the game after this announcment. Cash cow? Yes. Correct thing to do as a company? Definately, if not really morally correct with gamers. We all knew it would happen tho as we all know they are in the business for profit at the end of the day.

Re: PS4 Firmware Update 4.55 Puts in Shock Appearance

TomKongPhooey

@gingerfrog At least Im not imaging it lol. Im not too fussed as it'll be my sons prob soon as he's starting to play my ps4 a lot so I might have to let him have it and get myself a pro lol (any excuse )

@Flender Thats a good workaround to know I'm gonna give it a try. Far faster than powering off and on again. Thanks

Re: PS4 Firmware Update 4.55 Puts in Shock Appearance

TomKongPhooey

@Turniplord
possibly mate not sure. I don't normally have any of the other issue these guys talk about. Purely the PS store and its the same every update. It's grand for a day or two and works super fast and then grinds to a halt. some days its grand but they are a rarity, it's normally p*ss poor.

Re: This Horizon: Zero Dawn Time Lapse Is Pure Eye Candy

TomKongPhooey

did anyone notice not a drop of wind anywhere. nothing moving. no plants opening up or closing. Looks very bland to me. They spend so much time making the world beautiful then forget a simple mechaninc like wind.Clouds don't even move ffs.

EDIT: I have since been proven sooo wrong. My bad I really should read before I jump in with my 2 size 10's lol

Re: PS4 Pro Boost Mode 'Makes a Huge Difference to Some Games'

TomKongPhooey

I don't understand, if this 'Boost mode' was in the pipeline why this wasn't added as standard to all PS4 pro's before they shipped. Why is it a mode that is togglable unless it has a downside. Does it reduce the life of the machine or something? Surely if this is so good it should be permanently inplemented into the next firmware update not an option that is turned on or off. What's the catch?

Re: Site News: Welcome to the New Push Square

TomKongPhooey

seems like new site is a bit info overload imho but so long as I can get my reviews etc Im really not too fussed overall. Im probably the sorta guy whos not fond of change tho so take with a big pinch of salt guys. Im sure it'll grow on me either way. Well done guys

Re: UK Sales Charts: Grand Theft Auto V Hijacks the Top Spot

TomKongPhooey

It's sort of a lie really. It's not being bought for GTA5 at all. Every purchase Id say is for people wanting to play GTAO which can't be bought seperately. Pretty smart sales plan really.
Add to that the amount of people getting banned (which increased as it dropped off the top spot before xmas, coincidence?) which I would say have to get a new copy to try and play online again and it all adds up to free publicity as it stays at the top of the charts for years.

Re: Feature: 5 PS4 Firmware Updates Sony Needs to Add in 2017

TomKongPhooey

being digital this gen Ive already burned thru 2tb of HDD space. Ive only 200gb left and have started reducing my purchases as Im running low on space. I know I can delete games but I don't want too and don't see why I should have too. I don't fancy downloading up to 50gb of a game just because I fancy playing a older title for an hour or two. I want it on tap which was my reason for digital this time round.
Not far of holding off on any purchases until External HDD support is implemented. Come on Sony get with the program please. The new white PS4 come shipped with a 500gb HDD. Are you so out of touch Sony? SMFH

so much butthurt on both sides here and for what? a hobby. Ppl need to get a grip of themselves.

Everyone is entitled to their own views. Doesn't mean it's the views of a site... anysite. Wise up and get on with your lives. If you don't like the context or opinion of a site or review no biggie. Close the page and move on with your life or search for new info elsewhere this time.

Re: Review: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered (PS4)

TomKongPhooey

Couldn't agree more with that review. I'd give it a 9/10 also (it loses a point for still having the sniper gun glitch but I suppose I wanted it to stay true and could be called harse lol). Well chuffed to have this game back on my playlist. MP is a dream come true for me.

Re: Hardware Review: PS4 Pro - 4King Amazing?

TomKongPhooey

Oh I don't not in the slightest. I will get both things im crying about when needed. Im only irritated that Nov is normally the gaming industry big game release month but every new thread was about 2 things. 2 things that doesnt cater to all the playstation people. Like it or not this mid-gen rehash is dividing the community. This thread actually is fine it's the fact that this thread is an accumulation of the last 5 threads on ps4pro. I'll fek off now and leave you guys in peace to talk about the console generation break-up.

Language -Tasuki-

Re: Hardware Review: PS4 Pro - 4King Amazing?

TomKongPhooey

yeah im sure he was. I at least know when Im getting ribbed, just don't understand with what. Must admit tho, you get called out for a swear word on here but not a jot mentioned about getting picked on for posting an opinion on a forum. Like if I can't speak on a forum where can you speak. Speaks volumes really.

Re: Hardware Review: PS4 Pro - 4King Amazing?

TomKongPhooey

Every article on the site is about ps4pro or psvr thats all. All right we get it already they r being released. No need for every article to be about it. Surely Nov is a busy month for game releases also? no? Yeah I come to a ps site for news yeah no bother but ffs every article is just sticking stuff in ppl's gub again and again etc. Put them all together instead of inundating your site with repeated info.

Re: Hardware Review: PS4 Pro - 4King Amazing?

TomKongPhooey

Yawn. Enough with the PS4pro stuff already. Your repeating the same tripe again and again. Im sure everyone has made their choice if it's for them or not. Me obviously not until my current ps4 breaks but ffs is there no games to review or something guys? Give the ps4pro and psvr a break or at least a section of it's own. I come here for NEW news and game reviews etc not reposts of the same info. If not stop at least slow down the 'hype' run your on ffs. Pls.

Re: Hello Games Tweets: 'No Man's Sky Was a Mistake'

TomKongPhooey

Say what you all like about Hello Games. I got far more than my £50 worth out of the game. It passed the couple of weeks I expected it too. I didn't get burned and the game released worked better than most AAA titles I've bought. Would like some updates etc like anyone else but this bad mouthing is uncalled for imho.

Re: Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare PS4 Beta Suffers Matchmaking Setbacks

TomKongPhooey

Gave it another go last night. No it doesn't seem any better. Actually it p*ss poor imho.
Ah well £80 for CODMWremaster I suppose will be worth it as it's the only reason for paying for the digital preorder in the first place. shame that there is a whole brand new game included in that price that I most likely won't even download nevermind play. Disgusting tactics really but I sooo want COD4MW multiplayer again.

Re: Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare PS4 Beta Suffers Matchmaking Setbacks

TomKongPhooey

Tried all last night to get on and couldn't play any matches. There didnt seem to be any matchmaking at all. Thought I'd try tonight again. Yes it let me into a game. Last the lenght of time it took to play a few maps and couldnt tolerate it any more. What a load of p*sh. Useless MP. Don't like the look of it. Don't like the way it flows. Dont like the maps on show and the hit detection that I experienced anyhow felt like a ps1 or ps2 game. They have a lot to improve if they think for a second I'd be pulled away from MWremastered's MP game for this tripe.

Re: Hands On: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered Is Far More Than Its Title Suggests

TomKongPhooey

@get2sammyb
Go on Sammy get it. I was totally against getting this as my previous rants state (I.E it will release in the end as a standalone etc as I dont fancy IW at all) but I folded 2 nights ago and bought it digitally on PSN for £80. I've been loving the CODMW campaign again. It's a truly great remaster. Even though I played the original campaign and MP to death I'm surprised to to find myself waiting in anticipation for the next mission then the next etc etc. Even though I know what it coming and how it plays out, I find myself seeing it all as new and fresh. Strange. I just hope the MP isnt a let down as I truly have no interest in IW. £80 for a remaster of my favorite game of all time tho after playing it is a no-brainer now.

Re: Join the Mile High Club with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered Trailer

TomKongPhooey

I am still torn on this one. I have no interest at all in IW. I want solely for MW MP. Paying full whack is i think just a bit too pricey but im sorta sure inside once I hear some talk on the net about the MP on MW I'll end up buying IW just to get it instead of holding off until they release it as a standalone which im convinced they will in the end lol
Just can't bear to pre-order it. yet! lol

Re: Hardware Review: PS4 Slim - Size Matters

TomKongPhooey

Will be interesting to hear if it's still as quiet in a month or two of constant playing. I clean my CUH-1200 model every month or two and it still sound like a jet engine. Thats with it sitting by itself in a large alcove with a window in it on top of a unit. Nothing else on the unit just the exalted PS4 lol.

Up til now I've said I wont be buying the PS4 Pro with my 1080p TV theres no real point in me moving up to it but this maybe a reason to buy this model before my ps4 needs replacing. If it's a big improvement on the earlier models on quietness then I may have to invest. My whole library this gen is digital btw so no worry on disc front lol.

Re: Mission Blog: Chapter 5 - Atlas, At Last

TomKongPhooey

Again another nice story of your journey. I still ain't went to a red star system (any other colours star systems?) but am now excited for when I do go that way. Still aint left the system I was in when you posted the 4th blog lol. Enjoying the game and this planet system too much to move on yet.

Re: TGS 2016: NieR: Automata Has an 'Auto Mode' that Fights Enemies For You

TomKongPhooey

a lot of 'NEW' gamers are gamers for the storyline (less good movies out these days). Like an interactive Movie but better. It doesnt make sense to leave these potential new players out for the sake of an option in the game.

I'm only finished Deus Ex and to be honest, the game was a bit boring, repetative but I really enjoyed the story, especially when you complete all the side missions etc. For me an option to see the rest of the game play out as a movie on some tedious bits where I could set the controller down and enjoy the game would have been a welcome option at times. Especially when you've to trek across the city back to your base when dinner has just been put out and you've seen it all before, to stick the game on auto and watch as you eat sounds like an option that would be appealing to me and most likely enough others for developers to consider putting the option in a game. No one says you have to play it that way.
