Re: Stock Up on V-Bucks! Dragon Ball Is Coming to Fortnite

darkswabber

This was leaked 2 months ago and I’ve been hyped ever since.
Comes with a story quest that gets new story weekly 7 weeks long. Doing each weekly set gives a dragon ball and cosmetics. The mythic weapon “kamehameha” will be added + new DBZ based vechicles like clouds.
The skins are supposedly goku, vegata, beerus and bulma.

Re: The Last of Us 2 Is 'One of the Greatest Games Ever Made' Say Avengers Endgame Directors

@rachetmarvel I heard it sold a lastillion copies which is just shy of the morbillion tickets morbius sold. Sony is truly on a streak here with this games and morbius. The question is will TLOU1R and kraven the vegan outsell TLOU2 and morbius.

EDIT: before someone calls me a “troll”. I enjoyed both morbius and TLOU2. But I wouldn’t call TLOU2 a “GOAT” contender, not even close.

Beat God of War 4 yesterday and trying to get the platinum now.
Besides that still trying to get the fallguys fortnite skin, thought I had until the 17th but apparently it ends the 10th.
Other than those I’ll probably start something new, thinking about final fantasy 7, wild arms or trails of cold steel 1.

Re: PSP's LocoRoco Midnight Carnival Coming to PS Plus Premium on PS5, PS4

@GymratAmarillo remaster implies they run natively which they don’t.
EDIT: also didn’t mean to start “drama”, was moreso meant that these new psp additions run on the same emulator but do not use the benefits of the emulator in question.
EDIT2: also the article points out midnight carnaval is emulated as opposed to the original 2 being remasters. Which was what I responded to in the first place since the original 2 are emulated too on the same emulator.

@get2sammyb want to let you know. The original psp “remasters” on ps4/5 run on the same emulator as the new psp games. The difference is the new games aren’t using the tools this emulator offers like the “remasters” do. It was datamined years ago that games like locoroco, patapon and parappa the rapper run on an emulator and sony falsely markets them as straight up remasters and remakes.

Playing yakuza 5 ps4 at the moment on my ps5 which I’m about halfway through with.

Also bought tiny tina’s wonderlands at a sale for ps5 for €25 which I’ll be playing after. It’s actually my first ps5 game I bought myself new/not used since my launch pre orders, all my other pickups where either used or gifts.

Besides that I am still playing fire emblem fates birthright on my 3ds, animal crossing new horizons on my switch and forza horizon 5 on my XSX.

Also @liamcroft how are you enjoying FFXIII? I personally thought it was bad, especially not close to how people described it. Later on it really picks up the pace IMO.

Re: PS4 Games That Need a PS5 Patch

darkswabber

Several of these games actually got a next gen patch on XSX, including fallout 4, the yakuza games and AC origins. Fallout 4 for obvious reasons, the yakuza games just released that way on xbox (60fps instead of 30fps), AC origins is the weirdest case here as there’s no reason for ps5 not to get the patch.

Re: Pay for PS5, PS4 Platinum Trophies Is Rampant on PS Store Right Now

@get2sammyb in terms of value MS and xbox do it sort of better where a developer can give a value between 1 and 1000 to an achievement as long as the total amount for a game adds up to 1000 pre updates or dlc.

The issue here is no one is stopping devs from making games with a single 1000GS achievement and adding extra 1000GS achievements in updates.

Playing fire emblem fates birthright on my 3DS. Not liking it as much as awakening so far but still a great game.

Gonna finally start yakuza 5 on my ps4/5. Only have 5, 6, LaD and dead souls left to play. Played all other games including the 2 judgment games and fist of the north star already.

On xbox I might start mass effect 3, and next week I’ll play yoku’s island express.

Re: Video: Is Live Service Really the Way Forward for PlayStation?

darkswabber

Xbox has some good live services like sea of thieves, fallout 76 and forza horizon 5. But most of them are mediocre or badly supported.
And going by GT7 and destruction all stars I doubt sony will handle it much better. Not looking forward to them but I am curious about what bungie will make specifically.

Re: PS Plus April 2022 PS5, PS4 Games Announced

darkswabber

Like I said in the leak post. Good variety, 3 well recieved games, not everyone’s cup of tea ofcourse but definitely a great month.

Don’t sleep on slay the spire.

EDIT: and if the leak article is anything to go by. If you don’t like these games that doesn’t make it a bad month, and nowhere close to “the worst month ever”. You can’t have a win every month but to me a winning ps+ month is one that offers good a variety of genre’s and well recieved games.

Re: One Piece Odyssey RPG Announced for PS5, PS4

darkswabber

It’s a turn based JRPG by ILCA who also made last year’s pokemon remakes. Doesn’t bode well but from what I gathered the poke remakes had less then a year of total development including pre production and this games had a few years of active development.

Re: The Absolute Best Castlevania Just Turned 25

darkswabber

@LN78 ah yes that’s because of investors having discovered the game market. Let me tell you, as a collector on a budget it hasn’t been fun anymore. Wish the second hand market would crash personally, rather have my collection be worth nothing but everyone being able to buy, play and enjoy the rare games I have (and vica versa for me) than having a high value collection but so many games not being accessible if you don’t invest in or care for emulation.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 417

@Lup it’s really good so far. Also surprisingly beautiful for a 1st year ps3 game. And yeah it’s hard to get everywhere, metal jesus calling it a hidden gem 7 years ago already made it hard to find and when the news dropped that the ps3 store would shut down it became practically impossible.

Luckily I bought it in 2015 for cheap at CeX.
