Re: The Last of Us TV Series Handed 24 Nominations at The Emmy Awards

@naruball this!! Episode 3 was an example of the series taking something from the game and improving it! One of the best episodes of not just the series, but television in general of all time.
I know I've disagreed a hell of a lot with you in the past but on this I couldn't agree more. I cannot wait for season 2.

Re: Microsoft Beats US Regulator FTC in Activision Blizzard Buyout Battle

Entirely unsurprising decision. The writers and users of this site have put forward more effective arguments against the deal than the FTC did. By spending half the time arguing that the Switch doesn't count and the other half about Call of Duty (something even the CMA said doesn't matter) this outcome was all but to be expected.

Re: Canada Joins UK, US in Blocking Microsoft's Activision Blizzard Buyout

Maybe check your facts Push Square. If you follow the news on "The Verge" (which is doing a fantastic reporting job btw) you'll know that they've stated their disapproval of the deal but it's not blocked in any sense of the word at all.

Edit: Nice work on the quick editing of the headline. Much more accurate now 👍

Re: Speculation Claims Sony Opted Not to Include Some Major PS5 Games During PS Showcase

pip_muzz

It would certainly make sense with Sony's current heavy push into TV and Film to reveal things like Heavy Metal and Last of Us Factions alongside their TV promotions as well.
Sadly this also feeds into the concerns that single player games aren't their focus anymore, especially when those aforementioned two games are live service ones.
Also, expect the Horizon Zero Dawn PS5 remake reveal to debut alongside the Amazon TV series promo

Re: PlayStation Showcase Completely Divided Fan Opinion

pip_muzz

I voted good for the showcase.
Viewed as a showcase for upcoming games in general it was one of the best I've seen in a while.
Viewed as a "why did I choose PS5" showcase then that's where it failed to deliver. As someone who owns all three consoles I definitely thought it was solid in fairness (Sony Wii U Pad excluded)

Re: Talking Point: Would You Care About a PS5 Remote Play Handheld?

@Smiffy01 😅🤣 I meant in the evening/morning when my family are doing some of their own things. I'm not such an antisocial gamer that I play games all day having travelled to see my family 🤣😅😂 but before settling down to bed, having a 1/2 hour gaming session via the tablet & cloud is really very good

Re: Poll: What Game Should Capcom Remake Next?

pip_muzz

Lost Planet? Dead Rising? Seriously those games are already playable on modern consoles and are fine as is.
Can we maybe have something new for a change? Not the same old games just redone with "shiny" graphics and "updated" controls.
Wow everybody is boring these days

Re: Atari to Acquire Retro Restoration Specialists Nightdive Studios

pip_muzz

Worth remembering that the Atari 50 collection was made by Digital Eclipse which is unrelated to the other companies here.
That said, Nightdive is a great purchase. Their remasters are absolutely superb! Forsaken being an absolute classic.
Old school PS1 fans should definitely check out their Forsaken port
