@LikelySatan that’s awesome; ‘07 was just an all-around good year along with the 2000’s! granted the latter of your response and the housing market crash among other things existed but, hey, i was a kid, so 😆
@twitchtvpat AC4 didn’t even age bad & you can still easily play it right now. the only reason they even do this crap is because the ps4 didn’t have BC and people saw big money to be made in re-releasing the same games again and it’s only gotten worse. imagine what pc players think considering they’re essentially playing remastered games from the beginning since console has downgraded versions. not that pc players should matter on a PS site, but i’m just saying to prove a point that remastering fairly recent games is a joke
since i have PC/PS3 & sony releases their MP games to PC day one, i have no reason for ps plus (or premium) on my PS5. the only time i ever waste my money on that scam is when i sub for an exclusive skin or item in a MP game like a sucker
@Dan12836666 he’s lucky! it’s a dry heat in arizona , we got it worse than him in texas . try dealing with daily 90+ temps with suffocating +90% humidity; it feels like the devil is sitting on you 😂
if the ps5s that are overheating is because of the weather across the water, then ps5s over here should’ve caused wildfires by now. it’s not because of the weather, it’s a ps5 issue.
on the flip side though, weren’t we all waiting for true next gen games to finally push our consoles??
this is sad. i miss the days when the big 3 were all at eachothers neck and competition was pretty tight (6th/7th gen). now there’s just no reason to have an xbox anymore.
@Nakatomi_Uk The xbox one destroyed the xbox brand. i still hate that console to this day. At least the PS3 was still inline with traditional customs and expectations, just expensive. but the POS xbox one was a disaster on all fronts, the ugly ass UI on launch still haunts me
@Bluemoon2008 i should’ve specified that, here in america, they aren’t. A lot of “casuals” buy consoles here just to play 1-3 games on it. NBA2k & Madden are very popular here.
$ony won’t do gamepass because 1. The PS5 is the weakest first party generation & 2. The PS4s massive success has brought arrogant anti-consumer $ony back.
also,
“The reality is that gaming is not a passive form of entertainment like music and television, so most gamers prefer to purchase the games they specifically want to play outright”
Nah, I don’t believe this. The most popular games are F2P games and yearly sports & COD 😂.
@lazymike facts. that’s why i play helldivers 2 on PC and any other future multiplayer games $ony will release. i haven’t re-subbed to ps plus in years.
After all the bombarding & flak against BL3 from a lot of us, i’m sure it’s not hard for gearbox to see what not to do with BL4. Contrarily though, I think their biggest challenge with making this game is actually making a good story & characters. The gameplay, locations and guns will be as good as ever so that’s not really worrisome for anyone.
@rachetmarvel imo it’s pretty mid; it’s been so many years since i’ve last played it, so i can’t really explain why anymore. but being fresh off chronophantasma extend & then playing CF right afterwards, i liked CP:EX gameplay, story & roster better & the other reasons that you’ve already mentioned. I liked how hakumen played in CP:EX more than in CF so i think that’s a big reason why, too. Also, with Moiri leaving & CFs ending , yeah it’s bleak for blazblue. I think we’re in for a hiatus at least.
but blazblue is done, the lukewarm central fiction was pretty much the send off. i still hope they make another one though more in line with continuum shift
@EchoesOfBafflement man she would’ve loved the good sonic games back in the day even more like adventure 1 & 2, heroes, and sonic riders. but sega don’t make em like they used to
I heard someone say it’s because bigger population = more people = more gamers. that makes sense to me tbh, come on, we know damn well the midstation 5 is the worst playstation and is just reaping the benefits of the previous 4 awesome legacies COMBINED
also, almost nobody only has a nintendo. there’s always an xbox or ps console to go with it . there’s no way in hell gaming would be in a good spot if only nintendo were around
this is really good news, but it ain’t gonna top BL2. the whole “going back to its roots” thing is rarely accurate with games/sequels because they almost are never as good.. but, hey, i’m glad they took notice of how guns (legendaries especially) dropped like freaking candy in BL3 and reverted it back to be more in-line with BL2! That means a lot to me, because the way BL3 treated legendaries was criminal
@AtlasLivesAgain the original CTR is better than mario kart for the most part; nitro-fueled is a poor man’s mario kart and a stain on the original. If NF was so great, it wouldn’t have died as fast as it did, or even died at all despite being released on all consoles unlike mario kart. The online was atrocious & the nitro-kart content is garbage. Most of us fans simply wanted a literal 1:1 remaster of the PS1 game with online & nothing changed except graphical improvements
They aren’t. but fanboys think they are when it’s convenient to bring up sales & then other times, they’ll flip flop & say “nintendos doing their own thing”. The switch competitor is steamdeck and other handhelds, not ps5/xbox consoles.
@Gamer83 why does every multiplayer game need to have a single player? what if every single player needed to have a multiplayer?
no doubt it would be great to have both like games used to do, but i just think it’s odd that single player seems like a must even in games that basically don’t need it or wasn’t made for it
