@Th3solution yeah, Iām no longer a mere amateur š.
I had always planned on getting a pro prior to its release but when they announced it was releasing without a disk drive, was put off⦠and also to a lesser extent by the price.
Then I was waiting on whether GTAVI would run at 60fps on it, which we obviously still donāt know⦠but now just felt like the right price and the right time.
Iāve asked the missus to get me the disk drive for my stocking (so no extra āpersonalā charge š).
Been playing Borderlands 2 all week⦠and Iām pretty into it. I remember playing a fair bit of the first one solo, back on ps3 but never felt the pull to go back to the series. Itās been co-op with the sequel and I think itās clicking for me. Wrapped up the main game and 1 & a half dlcās, so looking to finish at least the second dlc this weekend.
I think that Iāll definitely go on to play 3 and 4⦠and might even go back to 1 again and maybe even The Pre-sequel and the two Tiny Tina games too.
Also, I ordered a ps5 pro last night⦠so hopefully thatāll be arriving sometime this weekend.
It would be a miracle if somehow Bunjie could turns this titanic-destined ship around. All popcorn consumption is on hold until this next playtests reactions start hitting.
@Elfuggingjefe fair, I on the other hand like looking forward to stuff⦠the chase has always been better than the catch as far as Iām concerned. We all see it differently but I donāt see it as fandom personally⦠just being excited about things that you will probably end up really enjoying. Fandom is more about things youāve already enjoyed and continue to drone on about
@Elfuggingjefe yeah I have zero concerns, these guys hit it out the park every time⦠and Intergalactic looks far more my kinda thing than Uncharted or TLoU (all of which I love), so this is right up there with my most anticipated games rn.
Was never expecting it in 2026 tbh⦠the year will have enough going on with Wolvie, Saros and GTAVI. Just perfect the **** out of Intergalactic for the following year.
Just mopping up the final bits and bobs on Bully. Enjoyed my trip back to Bullworth (& PS2 gaming) more than I had any right to. One of the great ps2 era games imho⦠looking forward to playing a few more from that era this coming year
Canāt imagine that thereāll be that much of interest unveiled here, what with the Game Awards around the corner⦠anything significant would much rather be announced there.
Thank god that the Xbox content creators out there aināt in charge of the mathematics curriculum of the developed world. This ****ās calculus not arithmetic!
Thinking of installing Bully. I loved it back on the ps2 and while putting a decent amount if time into it, I donāt think that I ever actually finished it. Really hope that itās aged like a fine wine š¤
The worst of the three 3D Fallouts but I still enjoyed it. It just seemed really scaled back in terms of its systems as far as I can remember⦠and the settlement building didnāt fill the gap that was left.
Only really gotten into the Resident Evil series this year (Iām definitely the tortoise over the hare š ) and just in time to watch what should be the first good film adaptation. After enjoying the hell out of Weapon a few months back, really looking forward to this!
Weāll never know this but iād be really interested to know the revenue that their games will make on Xbox compared to the amount paid for any PlayStation exclusivity.
@Balaam_ well⦠thatās one way of looking at it, the other (from a similarly obsessed trophy hunter) is that is why theyāre so preciously ultra rare. My GTAIV, GTAV and RDR2 plats are amongst my most coveted. š
I remember really enjoying Enter the Matrix back on ps2. I could go for a remaster of that actually⦠or even better a brand new current gen Matrix game⦠the ip is made for this ****!
@UltimateOtaku91 I donāt think that itāll only play selected games, that would give the Switch 2 (already the fastest selling console ever) far too much power in the eye of the consumer. I think itāll play everything, just at a reduced quality (pixel-count &/or frames⦠which is totally fine on a handheld screen).
@CaptD yeah that wouldāve been cool. I did hear that fans were somehow able to get the Killzone 2 servers back up a year or two back⦠who knows, maybe theyāll be able to do the same for 3.
Alternatively, a project like remastering these or the Resistance trilogy would seem the perfect job for Bluepoint or Nixxies⦠but instead their sat on their hands or porting exclusively to PC š¤¬
I actually bought the trilogy box set on PS3 the other day as it goes. Direct from Sony America, so it was still shrink-wrapped and everything. Still, Iād buy and play a ps5 remastered trilogy over my recent purchase if it was an option.
