Tony Todd is a SICK choice for Venom! That voice in Candy Man is iconic. HYPE!!!🔥🔥🔥

Loved the first game, for all its minor flaws. I imagine this will be a very strong sequel. Looking forward to playing it sometime this year.

I got to know Lance Reddick as an actor from Fringe; still one of my favorite shows of all time.
He will be missed!

Creepy trailer!

I loved both Surge games. Deck13 has improved so much with each game. High expectations for this one!

Not a fan of “Beefcake Law” at all. Some of these new character designs feel more Street Fighter than Tekken 🤷🏻‍♂️

Could this be Sony’s answer to the Call of Duty franchise?
Just might be!

Savage Starlight!!

Great review, and I agree 100% with the author’s overall sentiment about the series. It’s solid TV, but also a testament to how gaming affords us fresh and engaging ways to interact with storytelling that go beyond watching a show. That said, I’m excited to see how the series progresses, and also happy to play that Part 1 remake once the price drops!

Really enjoyed the second demo, played to completion, enough to finally buy the full game last night. The final boss fight of the demo was a blast. I love the relative simplicity of the combat; Nioh always felt over complicated and closer to a fighting game, despite my love for it. Magic feels much better here too. Character creator is awesome too. Really looking forward to playing the full game. Solid 8 so far.

Maybe give us an option to adjust it? Fans have too much power these days.

Gameplay looks kind of boring, but the soundtrack is bangin!

On PS5, go to gameplay and put it on “monitor refresh” for the best experience. “Unlocked” was adding weird visual artifacts and screen tearing yuck! Enjoying the game though… finally!

Metroid Prime and Wo Long (demo)!!

Wow, the poll has spoken!

Excited to play this, definitely on the list, but too many games currently in my backlog.

@Greifchen Or to put it another way, some players enjoy the satisfaction of overcoming a challenge 🤷🏻‍♂️

Definitely one to play down the road. The demo was solid fun. Nothing like getting crushed by an enemy/boss 10 times in a row only to absolutely slaughter it after studying its moveset and practicing. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a tough action-RPG

Art must evolve and change to stay relevant. Final Fantasy is evolving and changing, and that’s okay. There are missteps , for sure, but also chances for greatness that may not have happened without taking a risk. I’m staying positive for this one.
Also you can’t please everyone. 🤷🏻‍♂️

The Surge 2 was fantastic, huge improvement over the first game (esp. on PS5 w/60fps). I’m very excited to see what Deck13 has cooked up!
This is one to watch 👀

Anyone notice the “Contra” at the end there? Infernax X Contra???

Bummer that it didn’t fully come together. Definitely one to try on a sale though 🤷🏻‍♂️

@Benjiro Have you tried Sekiro? Faster combat, like Bloodborne. No character builds though, more of an action game.

I know folk’s didn’t love 3, but for me, the weapon building made that one a lot of fun. Let me engineer my own limb-severing weapons please!!

They just need to just make a NEW game!

Either retiring or trying to get away from Microsoft 🤷🏻‍♂️

You forgot to add, “Still deciding whether or not I want to return my shipped-but-undelivered copy of the game” to your poll

This show is missing the action, the horror, and the high stakes. We rarely see an infected. The character drama has been top-of-its-class, but the show is just missing something… Not bad, just incomplete… And that’s making the drama hit less hard, for me at least.
I guess it’s just time to replay the games again!

Super disappointing. You can keep your artwork 😑

Awesome interview. Absolutely fantastic horror soundtrack, up there with the greats. So much love for this Dead Space remake, it’s a horrifying dream come true.

Very excited about this; Death Stranding is a modern classic.

I love this game; it deserves to be remastered or rereleased. That said, I’ve played through it SO many times, I think ideally I would prefer a brand new Tactics game. But we’ll take what we can get!

@ultimateotaku91 Excellent gameplay trailer - Cheers! This game looks really fun

This was always going to be an extremely divisive decision. Remaking a beloved game like FFVII already was a tall order, but doing so while changing the story… Takin’ a big swing there!
That said, I enjoyed the game and don’t mind it taking off in a different direction. I’m excited to see what they do next!

This is the game I am most excited for.
It’s been so long…

Callisto Protocol is a fun but flawed game. Combat is fun, but needs work. The environment and level design sucks, imo…

And… Dead Space Remake is 💯% amazing. Combat feels SO good, and the updated graphics and gameplay are phenomenal. A must play!

Wow, those Xbox sales 🫢

I’ll be on this game Day One. Will let you all know how it goes!

@playstation1995 Same here - and a PS3 that doesn’t work! 😭😭😭
c’mon, remaster…

Atomic Heart 💯 🤯

Clearly not actual gameplay shots… Right?
I enjoyed the first game for what it was—a low-budget soulslike with some promise. Here’s hoping round 2 shows off their true talent; could be a winner!

Loving it so far. The graphics won’t blow your mind, but the game looks really good, and plays well. Scary AF. I’m hooked. Again.

I just want the back-buttons 😑

Based on my time playing and completing the updated demo, I agree with everything said here. PS4 game. Yep.

Sounds good! It was a solid romp that i’d gladly play through again overpowered and on a higher difficulty

Visually, game looks gorgeous! Gameplay-wise? Game looks boring AF! By-the-numbers Souls-like—I’ve definitely done this all before, based on the gameplay presented here. Will I still play the game? Probably! But I hope that there’s more depth to the combat buried in there somewhere, which we haven’t seen yet.

Really hoping the gameplay matches the art design in terms of quality, as it looks straight bonkers in the best possible way. Fingers and toes crossed for this one!

Silent Hill: MCU - will Spiderman escape the town of Silent Hill with his sanity intact? Battle the Red Witch as she plunges the webslinger into an alternate horror universe, complete with… murderous nuns? Hmm…

I liked the game, but it was nothing amazing. The combat was generally quite fun; mobs were a pain though, and like most reviewers said, showed the cracks in the combat system. Worst part for me was the terrible level design. Endless boring corridors, constant climbing through vents and walls. No interesting environments to speak of. Doesn’t make me want to replay the game in any way…

No DLC for me until it’s deeply discounted, if I buy it at all…

I am SO READY for Dead Space

Sea of Stars and Silksong are both tied for “give it to me now please!” place

Hoping this plays as good as it looks!
After this, if it does well, hoping for an entirely new entry in the series. New protagonist, flexible weapon building (like 3 but more developed), and a new setting.
We shall see…
