Used to all the time as a kid, now not at all unless its a game im REALLY into. I think God of War are Horizon are the only ones in recent times where I took time to read a lot of the lore and codex entries.
FH5 will get my vote, none of the others come close. Though unfortunately sitting dead last atm. Glad people are seemingly enjoying the MP portion of Halo
This is the way to do it imo. Have a compact, tight video with trailer after trailer then have individual dev sessions afterwards so people who are really into a game can learn more. Shoving a dev diary in the middle of a showcase for a niche indie game is certainly the way to lose steam of a showcase as we saw last week!
Looks cool but also hardly unique as you said. Even as someone who enjoys these games I don't think there's much room for more of them. Hope we see more soon enough.
Ahh man they lost me at cards. Hope some can find some fun in it but definitely not a game for me. Shame was excited after the initial trailer but oh well, plenty to play in 2022 this far!
It's, alright I guess. Has some neat ideas and has made me laugh out loud a couple times but not blown away as I expected to be from all the reviews. Certainly is unique which is a positive, not on my short list of GOTY titles but happy others are having a great time with it.
2K, Far Cry, Kena, Guardians all definite buys. Riders Republic is actually growing on me but it'll be 30 bucks by January so more than happy to wait on that.
Decent month if true. Planned on getting the Overcooked collection eventually when it hit <$20 anyways so thats a plus, and can finally see what all the Hitman fuss is about. Hope its true!
It really does look/play a ton better. Though after 2 full play throughs and 100 hours I have no desire to play again, it makes me even more excited for Forbidden West!
Good not great. A few games added to the buy list and some release dates we've been waiting for. Nothing mind blowing and probably should've cut half an hour off but I thought it was decnt as a whole.
Such a great franchise, been playing since Air Combat on the PS1. Look forward to a next gen version, pending anything disastrous this is an easy day one buy!
Only one I'd want to revisit would be San Andreas honestly. Though I'd probably scoop it up when it hits 20 bucks in a few years if the rumor pans out.
@TBubs311 From what I can tell if you download the Demo on your console it appears to install the full game then relabels it as Trial. Just loading it up now but it seems to be the full thing.
This is the one I ended up going with as well. Initially choose another brand but after seeing this tweet I decided he's probably the most reliable one to follow lol. Should be here Thursday!!
Grid Legends looks great, the rest is totally not for me but there seems to be a lot of excitement for Dead Space and the Battlefield stuff which is cool. I'd say it was OK overall even if I personally only got one thi g from it!

Well worth the $40-45 as it is every year. Never expect to be blown away every mo th but certainly always get my money's worth
Re: Poll: What PlayStation Game Are You Most Looking Forward to in January 2022?
From this list probably Windjammer 2. First was terrific so can't wait to see the improvements!
Re: Uncharted Movie Extended Clip Shows Off Chaotic Cargo Plane Action Scene
Looking forward to this. The idea of a Uncharted movie has always appealed to me much more than the actual games. Hopefully it's great!
Re: Talking Point: Do You Read All the Crap in Games?
Used to all the time as a kid, now not at all unless its a game im REALLY into. I think God of War are Horizon are the only ones in recent times where I took time to read a lot of the lore and codex entries.

Yikes, not exactly the best showing but hopefully they can turn it around by release.
Re: Sony Is Releasing Official PS5 Console Covers in 2022

Re: The Game Awards 2021 Nominations Revealed, Deathloop Gets Eight Nominations But Returnal Snubbed

Re: The Game Awards 2021 Nominations Revealed, Deathloop Receives Eight Nominees But Returnal Snubbed
Pretty bad selection IMO, R&C is the only one I'd even nominate personally. Def some notable snubs on there but I assume Deathloop will win it.
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Will Now Offer Free PS4 to PS5 Upgrade, Sony Confirms
Can I get my extra $20 back tho lol! All good, glad they made the adjustment for those that were upset, always a good thing!
Re: Deep Dives from Featured Teams to Follow PS5 Showcase
This is the way to do it imo. Have a compact, tight video with trailer after trailer then have individual dev sessions afterwards so people who are really into a game can learn more.

Re: PS5, PS4 Co-Op Looter Shooter Project Magnum Looks Very Flashy in Teaser Trailer
Looks cool but also hardly unique as you said. Even as someone who enjoys these games I don't think there's much room for more of them. Hope we see more soon enough.
Re: Marvel's Midnight Suns Shares How It Plays in First Gameplay Footage
Ahh man they lost me at cards. Hope some can find some fun in it but definitely not a game for me. Shame was excited after the initial trailer but oh well, plenty to play in 2022 this far!

Re: Review: Psychonauts 2 (PS4) - A Brain-Bogglingly Good Return to Tim Schafer's Mindful (Grey) Matters
It's, alright I guess. Has some neat ideas and has made me laugh out loud a couple times but not blown away as I expected to be from all the reviews. Certainly is unique which is a positive, not on my short list of GOTY titles but happy others are having a great time with it.
Re: Upcoming PS5, PS4 Games for September and October 2021
2K, Far Cry, Kena, Guardians all definite buys. Riders Republic is actually growing on me but it'll be 30 bucks by January so more than happy to wait on that.

Decent month if true. Planned on getting the Overcooked collection eventually when it hit <$20 anyways so thats a plus, and can finally see what all the Hitman fuss is about. Hope its true!
Re: Horizon Zero Dawn Looks Scintillating at 60 Frames-Per-Second on PS5
It really does look/play a ton better. Though after 2 full play throughs and 100 hours I have no desire to play again, it makes me even more excited for Forbidden West!
Re: Hands On: Riders Republic Is Obnoxious But Awesome on PS5
It actually is pretty fun to play with others. Not something I'll stick with or even purchase but its not bad by any means.
Re: Talking Point: Was Gamescom Opening Night Live Any Good?
Good not great. A few games added to the buy list and some release dates we've been waiting for. Nothing mind blowing and probably should've cut half an hour off but I thought it was decnt as a whole.
Re: Soapbox: Where's My Red Dead Redemption 2 PS5 Version, Rockstar?
Too much money being made in GTA to focus on this mess. Rockstar has bills to pay!

Re: Skyrim Anniversary Edition Coming This November for PS5, PS4
@ShogunRok I'm pleased someone finally recognizes my genius!!
Re: Skyrim Anniversary Edition Coming This November for PS5, PS4
Going to wait for the PS7 version personally. I've never played Skyrim so may as well hold out for the best version in 15 years!
Re: Development Takes Off on a New Ace Combat Game
Such a great franchise, been playing since Air Combat on the PS1. Look forward to a next gen version, pending anything disastrous this is an easy day one buy!

Looks terrific, can't wait to dive in today!
Re: Rumour: GTA 3, Vice City, San Andreas Being Remastered for PS5, PS4 with 'New and Old Graphics'
Only one I'd want to revisit would be San Andreas honestly. Though I'd probably scoop it up when it hits 20 bucks in a few years if the rumor pans out.
Re: Rumour: GTA 5 Expanded & Enhanced Will Run at 4K, 60 Frames-Per-Second on PS5
Think I'll hold off until the PS6 version comes out pushing 8K/120fps!
Re: Far Cry 5 Is Free This Weekend, Full Game Heavily Discounted
@TBubs311 From what I can tell if you download the Demo on your console it appears to install the full game then relabels it as Trial. Just loading it up now but it seems to be the full thing.
Re: Far Cry 5 Is Free This Weekend, Full Game Heavily Discounted
Awesome, will see if I can get the platinum over the weekend while I have the house to myself!
Re: This Is the PS5 SSD System Architect Mark Cerny Is Using
This is the one I ended up going with as well. Initially choose another brand but after seeing this tweet I decided he's probably the most reliable one to follow lol. Should be here Thursday!!

Re: Talking Point: Was EA Play 2021 Any Better Than Usual?
