Really excited to play this, but still deep in Armored Core 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I bought it now full price just to support the devs. I absolutely loved the demo.

@Jimmer-jammer Thanks for sharing! I have yet to try a shotgun in any capacity, will have to try one out. I did end up finally beating Balteus with that awesome plasma rifle in RH, that long grenade launcher in LH, vertical missles and the back laser rifle. The trick was to stay in the air though, which took me WAY to long to figure out… 🤦🏻‍♂️ Very satisfying when it exploded into flames however 🔥🔥🔥

Re: FromSoftware Still Can't Get the Frame Rate Right in Armored Core 6, PS5 Analysis Shows

I mean, the game plays very well. I’ve noticed a few drops here and there, but given the madness on the screen at times, I’ve been very impressed with Armored Core VI’s technical performance in my playtime so far. Waaaaaay better than Elden Ring (at least at launch).

PS - from PushSquare’s review: “…rock-solid performance on PS5 make it a worthwhile experience as a whole…”

Re: PS5 Fans Divided on PlayStation Portal Handheld

I definitely want one! Looking forward to playing curled up on my couch next to my lady while she watches her favorite TV shows after work. Wish it was a little cheaper (like 150 seems about right), but I think I will get good use out of it for the money.

Re: Poll: Are You Sold on PlayStation Portal?

I play my Switch soooooo much more since I got one (post-PS5 release). I have lower back issues, so I love laying on the couch or in bed to play. My PS5 is starting to collect dust for this reason. Having the Portal to remote play games lag-free via the new Link system in my home sounds like just what I need. I definitely wish it had an OLED screen, but LCD obviously brought the price down, so not a terrible concession. I wish it was a little cheaper, like $150, but I’m probably going to buy it.

Sounds like a classic AA game that a lot of people might still enjoy. This review reminded me of the first The Surge game—lots of small issues, but still a solid experience underneath it all and a unique take on the genre. I’ll definitely check this out down the road, as it sounds like a pretty fun time!

Re: Armored Core 6 PS5 File Size Isn't So Bad

@Mikey856 Let’s be honest, there are many, many Armored Core fans out there, who have been waiting for a new game in the series for years and years. Plus all of the new potential players garnered from FromSoftware’s recent success. It may not do Elden Ring level of sales, but let’s not count the game out quite yet.

Re: Atlas Fallen (PS5) - The Surge Dev's Best Game Yet

Glad to hear this turned out well. I don’t love the art direction on this one, but Deck13 is a solid AA developer. I truly enjoyed both of the Surge games. Hopefully they can patch up some of the technical issues and “jank” down the road.
