I had zero expectations for the state of play but I am actually in shock as to how bad it was. I honestly thought we would at least get one of the anticipated 3rd party releases such as ff16, hogwarts legacy etc. I knew it would be bad, but not this bad lol. Oh and I guess among us type games are gonna be the new battle Royale sigh
I still think there is gonna come a day when I give up on gaming due to all the live service, loot box, crappy patent, advertising nonsense. Honestly, I look at most games and just say "pass
Whatever, at the end of the day its just a video game I don't really care. Release the same day as PC? Who cares, I don't have the time to complain about meaningless arguments.
They took away classes, team quick chat communications, and the decent pinging system. All the things that made BF what it is. I love the series and was excited for this launch, but I am definitely going to wait a few months and see if things get better. No way they delay this, not before the holiday season. Execs want their cash from parents and such.
@TheArt i always say the same thing. Not only that but they always put the digital deluxe version or something on sale to justify an extra $10 bump in price even though it's on sale. I just want the standard version to go on sale, but they are smart. Also, these sales are not great and a lot of these games have been cheaper before. I honestly just wait until they are dirt cheap in retail stores now. Hope physical never goes away.
So no bioware and no star wars. What are they going to bring to the show to warrant a whole event. Probably just sports, Battlefield and maybe one surprise?
I would add that Returnal probably has the best use of the dualsense after Astros Playroom. I am playing ratchet and clank, and feel a little let down with the haptics after playing returnal.
I think it would have been a lot better if we hadn't seen so much of Deathloop already. I feel like I've played a couple of hours of the game already lol
This gen is the first time I am considering getting an Xbox. Not anytime soon as their exclusives are still a ways off, but perhaps xmas 2022 or early 2023.
@KippDynamite Yeah I am a little concerned too about them not doing a game before. The graphics and story look awesome but I hope they were able to sort out gameplay.
@Solidocelot have you played Returnal? There is no way it could of been done on the ps4. The instant travel and particle effects as well as the smooth fps with all the action, not possible.
All you folks on ps4 saying that the games won't be held back are hilarious. Play a true next gen game and you will realize why us ps5 owners are disappointed. There was so much they could do with GoW being a ps5 exclusive. Also, all this talk about the machines not coming out quick enough. That doesn't make sense when ps5s are outselling ps4
It looks awesome but I really hope they worked on the dialog and story. The first game really lacked in that department and is the one thing holding it back from being a top notch ip
Let's hope they used the extra time to actually add some unique new content, better the story and innovate a little bit. Far Cry 4 and 5 were basically just prettier versions of 3 with lesser villains.
I was a bit skeptical about this game before release but it is highly addictive with that "just one more run" feel. My one mate was over the other day and he couldn't put it down and he is not into rogue lites. Totally worth full price (what constitutes full price us another story lol)
Trying to get somewhere in returnal lol. Almost got this first boss, he was so low but all I had was a pistol so couldn't kill him quick enough. I think I have him next time
This is truly the first next gen game for me. Demon souls was awesome but it was a remake and I still some suspicions of Returnal, but this looks absolutely glorious
Yeah its kind of weird that days gone is not getting a sequel since it built up a bit of a following over the years. I mean uncharted 1 was not that great of a game but uncharted 2 was pretty awesome.

Re: PS4 Exclusive God of War Releasing on PC in January
Whatever, at the end of the day its just a video game I don't really care. Release the same day as PC? Who cares, I don't have the time to complain about meaningless arguments.
Re: GTA Trilogy Has 'High-Res Textures, Increased Draw Distances, and GTA 5 Controls' on PS5, PS4
Honestly, for me the main thing that will have me buying it is the soundtracks and music rights.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Deathloop?
I like the must buy, buy if you are a fan of the genre, wait for sale, and avoid categories for scoring games.

Re: New PS Store Sale Puts More PS5, PS4 Games in the Bargain Bin
@davesmith01 Greedfall is different to godfall. Be careful you don't get them confused.

Will definitely get this when its around $10 or so
Re: NBA 2K22 Brings Bicycle Races, Rapping to PS5's City
That's great and all, but have they fixed the predatory monetization?
Re: Upcoming PS5, PS4 Games for September and October 2021
Also, let's just take a look to admire what a selection of titles are coming out over the next few months. We are spoiled for choice.
Re: Upcoming PS5, PS4 Games for September and October 2021
@thehappyaerithch right? It's like the worst game on the list lol
Re: Diablo 2: Resurrected Beta Timings Confirmed, Open Beta Begins Next Week on PS5, PS4
Don't support blizzard. Corporations are driven by profits. Change will only happen if we force them to. Its sad cause I was looking forward to this.
Re: Upcoming PS5, PS4 Games for August and September 2021
@kingbreww nothing? I though September had something for everyone.
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Delay Rumours are Doing the Rounds, But It's All Speculation
If this ends up true then 2022 is going to be the best year in gaming history with all these delays lol
Re: Stray Is Looking Purr-fect in PS5, PS4 Gameplay Showcase
They nailed the cat movement and personality
Re: Sorry Star Wars Fans, EA Play Live Is Not the Event You're Looking For
So no bioware and no star wars. What are they going to bring to the show to warrant a whole event. Probably just sports, Battlefield and maybe one surprise?
Re: PS5 Console Exclusive Ghostwire: Tokyo Delayed to Early 2022
I think they are trying to avoid this falls lineup. Have you seen what is releasing in September and October. Its insane.
Re: Warner Bros Allegedly Looking to Offload NetherRealm, TT Games
Imagine Sony buying them. That would be a power move lol
Re: Soapbox: What Makes Returnal So Special
I would add that Returnal probably has the best use of the dualsense after Astros Playroom. I am playing ratchet and clank, and feel a little let down with the haptics after playing returnal.
Re: Talking Point: Was Sony's Latest State of Play Livestream Any Good?
I think it would have been a lot better if we hadn't seen so much of Deathloop already. I feel like I've played a couple of hours of the game already lol
Re: PS Plus August 2021 Games Include Hunter's Arena: Legends on PS5, PS4
I can't help that Sony are giving us a free to play game for PS Plus lol. I will try it out but I'm not expecting much.
Re: Dungeons & Dragons: Dark Alliance (PS5) - Unashamedly Old-School Hack-and-Slash
Watch the skillup review on this before buying! It is a buggy buggy buggy mess with some of the worst AI in years.
Re: Mini Review: Metro Exodus (PS5) – A Greatly Improved Version of a Pretty Awesome Game
Game really shines at 60fps. It also somehow feels slightly better and quicker besides the fps increase. Less sluggish. I can't explain it.
Re: Reaction: E3 Is a Relic Desperately Clinging to Relevancy
E3 was a waste of time. I personally only watched recaps of each day which probably took me like 5 -10min to get through, if that.
Re: Life Is Strange: True Colors Outlines Psychic Empathy Powers
Looks interesting. I will probably wait for a sale, because even though I enjoy the series, $60 is a little steep for a Life is Strange game.
Re: Bethesda's Starfield Will Not Release on PS5, PS4
This gen is the first time I am considering getting an Xbox. Not anytime soon as their exclusives are still a ways off, but perhaps xmas 2022 or early 2023.
Re: PS5 Console Exclusive Godfall Is, Er, Coming to PS4
It was an okay game. Lol at all the peeps who are salty for not being able to get a ps5 yet. Don't worry, you will get one eventually.
Re: Round Up: What Was Announced at Ubisoft Forward?
Absolutely nothing lol
Re: Kena: Bridge of Spirits Looks Lovely, New Gameplay Shown in Dev Presentation
@KippDynamite Yeah I am a little concerned too about them not doing a game before. The graphics and story look awesome but I hope they were able to sort out gameplay.
Re: Returnal PS5 Patch 1.4.0 to Fix Trophy Issues, Tweak Balancing, and Much More
@Gatatog hang in there man. It took me around 2 weeks to complete that biome. Grind the previous biome before you go in, trust me.
Re: Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Extraction Is the New Name for Quarantine
Probably changed the name due to the pandemic lol. Don't want people having ptsd from playing a game called quarantine
Re: God of War Ragnarok, Gran Turismo 7 PS4 Versions Confirmed
@Solidocelot have you played Returnal? There is no way it could of been done on the ps4. The instant travel and particle effects as well as the smooth fps with all the action, not possible.

Re: Far Cry 6 Gameplay Looks Wild and Chaotic, Out This October
I am kind of burned out on Far Cry games especially after the lackluster 5. This needs to be amazing for me to purchase this.
Re: Poll: Are You Sold on Horizon Forbidden West?
It looks awesome but I really hope they worked on the dialog and story. The first game really lacked in that department and is the one thing holding it back from being a top notch ip
Re: Far Cry 6 Gameplay Reveal Coming This Friday
Let's hope they used the extra time to actually add some unique new content, better the story and innovate a little bit. Far Cry 4 and 5 were basically just prettier versions of 3 with lesser villains.
Re: Returnal Team Out to Prove It's More Than Just the 'Resogun Studio'
I was a bit skeptical about this game before release but it is highly addictive with that "just one more run" feel. My one mate was over the other day and he couldn't put it down and he is not into rogue lites. Totally worth full price (what constitutes full price us another story lol)
Re: Returnal's Save System Still Being Investigated, New Content in the Works
@2cents i was thinking the same thing. At $70 they better be giving away free dlc.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 374
Trying to get somewhere in returnal lol. Almost got this first boss, he was so low but all I had was a pistol so couldn't kill him quick enough. I think I have him next time
Re: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Trailer Trends on YouTube with 1.1 Million Views
This is truly the first next gen game for me. Demon souls was awesome but it was a remake and I still some suspicions of Returnal, but this looks absolutely glorious
Re: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Gameplay Trailer Looks Simply Sublime
First truly next gen experience
Re: Rumour: Multiple Parties Interested in Square Enix Buyout
I doubt it will happen but if square Enix is bought by MS that would ultimately be the nail in the coffin for me and I would switch consoles.
Re: Soapbox: I Don't Think Sony's Obsession with PS5 Blockbusters Aligns with Reality
I don't care what the studios do as long as it isn't a 3rd person adventure game. I'm starting to get a little burned out on those.
Re: Reaction: Days Gone Was PS4's Black Sheep, But a Darn Good Open World Game
Yeah its kind of weird that days gone is not getting a sequel since it built up a bit of a following over the years. I mean uncharted 1 was not that great of a game but uncharted 2 was pretty awesome.
