First was a pleasant surprise, really enjoyed it. Especially as I have it free from plus and epic. Second looks great too, if not a little more action oriented.
After the 19.hour download time for Miles Morales from extra, been playing that. It's good, it's more spidey. But that said, this game doesn't need to exist. It's exactly the same thing. Least make him feel different to play. And no, the instant win button that is the venom powers don't count. Still, it's more spidey and that's never a bad thing.
Have been umming and arring about getting ps++ all week because I wanted to play Miles Morales. Had a ***** day so as I got paid, i ordered it. And now I have to wait 3 hours for it to download. Ergh.
EDIT: Oh no, not 3, it's gone up to 19 hours.
I'm going to bed.
Just like the arkham Knight wasn't exactly who everyone knew already. Willing to bet money that Bruce is the talon, and they are right in saying that "batman" won't appear.
I'm glad they're adding 3rd person I don't like 1st at all. So not 3rd person in mercenaries? I might get to this eventually although still not sure of the werewolves and whatever, I like my zombies!
Tifa was a monster in remake. Absolute beast. And tbf all the characters were viable choices, even aeris (I refuse the th) was really useful in this one. Wonder how they're going to differentiate Nanaki though, he basically runs at things and physically pummels them too 🤔
Finish up Resi r3make. It's good, not as good as 2, and don't like the missing content, but it's good and about as fun as I remember. I miss my dismemberment though
@Blaze215 I have no such attachments to the original I'm afraid. I'd never bothered with anything digimon up until buying cyber sleuth on a whim. Had 300 hours on the 2 combined 😂 I'll see. Thanks man
Is digimon next order any good? Really liked the hacker's memory games (despite knowing absolutely nothing about the series, just was fun evolving and devolving everything) but next order is a very different thing from what I have seen.
Really liked the first one. If it wasn't for a couple of bugs and getting caught in death loops 3x, it'd been amazing. This one looks to be more action orientated, but that's fine by me. Also, play it in French, it's just better.
Yes, yes, yes. Anything these guys do is just OOZING passion, it's palpable and I will be getting this bad boy at some point. Though I played through initially on Steam so may get it over there.
@CWill97 It's hard. Frustratingly so. But, it's also incredibly fair (not like Dark Souls which is cheap). Any mistakes you make are on you, and it's just learning patterns of the bosses etc. The platform sections are fun too. It's absolutely worth a playthrough, if nothing else than to hear the soundtrack.
FF7R2 needs to be addressed.
There is SO much stuff left to cover:
Kalm, chocobo ranch, mythril mine, nibelheim, rocket Town, icicle Inn, wutai, gongaga, northern crater, mideel, nibelheim again, midgar again, golden saucer, Fort condor, junon, ancient temple, bone Village, chocobo sage, forest of the ancients, cosmo canyon, cave of the gi, WEAPONS, Dyne and coral, crashed gelnika, underwster, space... Not forgetting just the bloody world map.
Nout. Just finished up plague tale on Egs and really liked it. Minus a few glitches and getting stuck in death loops 3x it was really good. Played in French. Cba with anything else for a bit.
So presumably fairly soon you will ONLY be able to get ps+ cards from Sony directly at whatever price they deem appropriate and will not be able to get them from cdkeys, electronicfirst etc. Hmm.
If they're doing Legacy of Kain, I hope they do the entire series, not just the Raziel stuff. That said, they were all fantastic, they need to poach Hennig for a time to get the story told.
@Flaming_Kaiser The controls are truly awful lol, but you get used to them pretty quickly (hold select and press L1 (might be L2?) to cycle weapons), think it's R1 to move camera, no analogue movement...
Yeah it's absolutely my number 1 game series to get a proper remake, they could do so much!
I'm one of THOSE people who like to invert the Y but not X anyway so that wouldn't bother me in Jak I don't think, not that I'd play that.
Turn based is a fine style for rpgs, but personally, I absolutely loved the ff7 remake and I thought the combat was by far the best thing about it. Each to their own on that one I guess! Although I seem to remember getting the pre-order summons at a later date anyway (Chocobuckle, Cactuar I think?)
FF7R2 is probably one of my most anticipated games to be honest, but again, each to their own.
@Flaming_Kaiser Have it on vita, it's still great (though jesus the controls). I just don't want to have to invest in premium for the sake of doing so. Also, yes there 100% will be a taser combustion trophy.
Am I really going to have to get premium for a month just to platinum the bloody syphon filter series? Don't make me do it Sony, I don't want it
They did patent this a while ago so not entirely surprising. Next up, lonely robots (https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/04/random_sonys_experimenting_with_a_robot_buddy_for_lonely_gamers).
God the amount of times I had to ps+square to zoom in on the bloody text on the first one. I'm sat about 6' away I should be able to read them. Stuff like this (and last of us 2 which despite the controversy, did accessibility VERY well from what I've seen) is very cool and should be the absolute norm.
Actually pleasantly surprised by something Sony have done so that's a nice change of pace as of late.
Rates good for me.
Having said that, "extra" should be premium and they should have done a basic tier for online access and cloud. Also don't really get the fact that trials, that used to be free, is now some kind of selling point worthy of a higher entry price.
But yeah, good. Which from me is high praise indeed for the company atm.
Edit: also, not necessarily for me, but others. If the game is leaving the service, would they offer the chance to buy it, reduced, like ms does with gamepass?
@PushButtons First few times I ran through it, I did it the slow methodical way, crawling behind every car and bit of cover, taking out everyone i could get close enough to, inching away. Then on my (first) survivor run (i think), i went left instead of straight. Literal game changer lol. Hardest part for me on grounded, was the ellie/david fight against the massive horde. I was trying to save ammo (I think i had 2 rifle shots), so was stabbing and throwing stuff etc. Nah, shoot, don't stab. Replenishes ammo and does damage.
@PushButtons You know you can complete that section in about a minute? Just run left, up the steps and down, sneak up to the first house, get the guy to come out and hide from him, then just sprint the rest of the way and jump the fence?
@jmac1686 Think they would have SOMETHING to show about it all at least. Even if it's a cgi trailer showing locations and whatever, I bloody loved the first part of the remake and I really want to get through the rest of it to see what they do.
Yeah get rid of the dead weight at this point. The ps5 games will still be available when people can get the console eventually, and as the recent articles on sales have shown, the software sales will pick up again when there is a release of ps5 consoles. Sack it off.
