My favorite part about all of this is that this single tweet overshadowed everything from Gamescom besides the Death Stranding stuff, which is obviously of little issue to Sony. Xbox had a big presentation before the opening night stream, and I didn't hear a thing about it. Playstation put zero effort into the announcement, and has owned the news cycle for the last 24 hours. It's incredible.
Absolutely buying the 5 version. Dying Light is one of my favorite games of this generation, and it deserves all the respect and power I can provide it.
Hey everyone, remember when Red Dead 2 was announced for like 3 years, and we didn't get real gameplay until a few months before it came out? Where was all this negative energy about "not boding well" and "not being confident in their product" then? Am I missing something, or is that just another case of Rockstar getting a free pass for some reason?
It was very mediocre. A little surprising, since I thought they killed it, but outside of Keanu Reeves and Blair Witch (which I am absolutely convinced is a Silent Hill game) got me excited.
For such a cool looking game, this box art blows. It just looks like Call of Duty cover art, which is not good for something this unique and ambitious.
Never forget that it was codenamed Project Dylan because it was supposed to be "The Bob Dylan of video games. Something incredibly influential, and talked about for years to come". Well, it'll be talked about for years to come, but... I dunno about the rest
Bought it on Switch. Might buy it again on PS4. It's a lot of fun, though the people in the comments wouldn't admit that, because they never wanted it to succeed, because they hate change. Anyway, if you're a huge dork for Grasshopper Manufacturer, pick this up. It is... so dope.
I love all the people defending RDR2. That game is fine. Decent story, good characters, and it absolutely pushes technological boundaries. It's also really boring, and it doesn't control very well, and the mission structure is terrible. Also it was made with borderline slave labor, so, you know... that game can bite me. People will give Rockstar games a 10 by default because they made GTA 3.
Hi, yes, hello, Gamestop employee and good friends with my local Playstation rep here. You can still purchase digital copies of games, we just won't be selling the physical cards anymore, because it's a 1% loss on all of them on Sony's end. They take more money to produce and ship out than they gain from someone purchasing a digital copy by using one of them. So... why would Sony keep making them? People are still gonna use this news as clickbait to give people something to be angry at Sony and Gamestop about, but those are the facts.
It's incredible to me that Crash is still up there. I mean, I know it's gotten a boost from the other systems, but still. That feels unprecedented for a $40 remake collection of 20 year old games. Really interested in seeing how Spyro fares in comparison.
For the record, Skrillex barely makes dubstep type stuff anymore, and the provided example song is a mediocre song off his worst album. He's just an incredibly talented electronic music producer, and working with Utada has been a dream of his for years
Always like the TGS shows. Always have high hopes for things like Puppeteer 2, and end up coming out disappointed in that regard, but I still usually end up happy. I like Japanese games.
Maybe if you guys had actually bought Nex Machina and Matterfall, you wouldn't be here complaining about a new Battle Royale game. I, for one, am very excited, and that's coming from someone who preordered Alienation, Nex Machina, and Matterfall, and got the Platinum in Resogun.

Now you, too, can remind yourself of one of the worst sequels of all time every time you turn on your PS4!

I wonder how much intern slave labor sweat was used to make this one

Re: Persona 5 Royal Steals a Spring 2020 Western Release Window
Doesn't matter when it's coming out, honestly. Whenever it does, I'm getting whatever the biggest special edition they have is.
Re: Concrete Genie Leads the Way in Gamescom 2019 Awards with Four Nominations
2 PS4 exclusives in the top 3. Not bad.

It'll be a good day once the holiday releases start to come around and we can kick Anthem off the year's top 10.

Re: Round Up: What Was Announced at EA Play 2019?
@Splat I saw a truck in the back of one of the wide shots of their setup, but otherwise I don't think Anthem was mentioned on stream in any capacity

@Splat Cole is dead and Delsin is an amazing protagonist. So is Fetch.

I'm a huge audio dork, and 3D audio is a big reason why I bought the Platinum Headset, so I was thrilled when this part was announced

Re: Red Dead Redemption 2's Soundtrack Finally Set to Release This Spring
I'm just saying, God of War has a better soundtrack AND it was put up on Spotify before the game even came out, thus proving its superiority
Re: The Last of Us: Part II Coming 'Very Soon' According to Composer
@hulkie That seems incredibly unlikely for SEVERAL reasons
Re: Sony's Not-So Secret Unannounced Studio Attracts More Talent

Re: PUBG PS4 Advertisement Spotted on US PlayStation Store
@get2sammyb no way. AC Odyssey got obliterated by leaks. And Spyro.
Re: Geoff Keighley to Announce The Game Awards 2018 Nominees Next Week
God of War is still unequivocally my game of the year. That game blew me away on every level that a game can.
Re: UK Sales Charts: Red Redemption 2's Retail Sales Almost 70% on PS4
It's incredible to me that Crash is still up there. I mean, I know it's gotten a boost from the other systems, but still. That feels unprecedented for a $40 remake collection of 20 year old games. Really interested in seeing how Spyro fares in comparison.
Re: Yooka-Laylee's Retro 64-Bit Mode Coming Soon on PS4
It bothers me way more than it should that the HUD is still in HD. It's very jarring.
Re: Red Dead Redemption 2 Available Early at Select Retailers in North America
Yes, as it is with virtually every other game ever. But it's Red Dead, so writing about this like it's a big deal gets clicks.
Re: Red Dead Redemption 2 PS4 Reviews Will Run Next Week
Well, it's made by Rockstar, so no matter how good or bad it is, it'll almost exclusively get 9's and 10's
Re: THQ Nordic Has Post-Release Plans for Darksiders III
@Jaz007 I work at GameStop and a guy preordered it from me. I cannot understand why.

Re: God of War PS4 Concept Art Shows How Close It Came to Egyptian Mythology
@Rob_230 The ending was satisfying, but definitely leaves it open to several sequels. It also blew my mind. Can't wait for you to finish
