Despise the first game with a passion, don't recall another game where I was more bored! my god slowly walking everywhere was ironically a test of my own sanity. This looks like more of the same but with a prettier coat of paint, I wish NT nothing but success but I hope they are done with this franchise.
Even if you have a itch to play as a pirate you wouldn't be playing this game as you're just living the life of a pirate ship with a stamina bar! there's a far superior pirate game out now that's way better and way cheaper too.
If PlayStation itself is not seeing the benefit of keeping games exclusives why would anyone else? Times are changing and exclusives no longer have the same effect they once did, well for anyone other than Nintendo.
Thanks Europe! this all but guarantees that the flood gates for Xbox games to PS5 is wide open. I mean is not like Xbox has anything else to lose by porting their whole catalog đ
I loved all of Ninja Theory's games except Hellblade, my god how boring. All of Ninja Theory's games had been fast pace but this one you had to slowly walk everywhere with sprinkles of simple action (their previous game was DmC!) and a really obnoxious voice that wouldn't stay quiet.
Even saying all that I really wish Sony had snatched them up, a remake of Heavenly Sword with some of the fighting of DmC would have been goty material. Now we have to watch them possibly close because we know Hellblade 2 is not going to do Fortnite numbers which is apparently what Microsoft would deem a success đ¤ˇ
Only have Plus for Online like many here, wouldn't bother if I had a choice. I like having ownership of my games so was never interested in GP, even the "free" Plus games you're just renting them till your subscription runs.
@FantasyExplor3r88 "I dont get it why the series took the first person path"
Probably because Resident Evil 6 was such a disaster and bomb (worst game in the series by a mile đ¤ĸ) that they had to go back to the drawing board including making new characters and world.
Well their gamble paid off massively and thanks to 7 & 8's success Capcom made so much money that they are able to confidently greenlight pretty much any remake they please (except Veronica apparently đĨ˛).
I would buy every single one of those games in a heartbeat on PlayStation, throw Killer Instinct in there as well! Xbox has some fantastic ips even if you only want to count the ones pre-acquisitions.
Looks absolutely beautiful, so far I have 0 complaints I hope it releases soon! also is nice seeing one arm Gohan instead of him acting like he had one arm in the previous DBZ games
Great game and very challenging Platinum! that said I wouldn't play it again nor would I want a sequel, I hope their next game is something new and hopefully not a rogue-like đ¤
It was so obvious that they were creating their own controversy just to drum up publicity for the game and get more eyeballs on a already forgotten title, well it worked 100%!!
I expect more studios to do similar stuff when attention for their game dies down and there's no more hype, unfortunately it will work every single time because gamers I'm sad to say are predictable đ
I wouldn't have a stink about it if this is how they released the game but way after it was already out!? Wtf are they creating artificial controversy so that they then can patch it in and say "alright guys we'll return it to how it was, we do appreciate the extra eyeballs on the game this fake controversy garnered us đ"
Neither should have been censored, still feels scummy of him throwing another team under the bus because his team was screwed over. How about we treat adults as adults and children as children and stop censoring content meant for adult eyes đ
@BloodyBlact Actually that would be hilarious so I kind of want it to happen đ the blowback would be more entertaining than any game and would make Sony the undisputed kings of trolling!
I'm still holding out hope that along with the release of the PS5 Pro Sony will also announce one of their secret exclusives will be ready on release day! That would absolutely blow up the gaming world which probably means that it won't happen that way âšī¸
@Nepp67 Google is lying to me then because is telling me only on PS5 & PS4 𤡠and like I said it wouldn't matter if it was on the Dreamcast the game has no future, I'm just waiting to see which one goes under first between this and Suicide Squad take your pick.
Maybe release it on PC & Xbox perhaps? đ¤ Of all the things to have as exclusive this isn't it, not that it will help much as this game's future is bleaker than Suicide Squad.
Terrible selection for me, Immortals is the highlight and it looks so boring and bland that I find it shocking that someone gave the greenlight to not only release it but charge full price!
Was already waiting for an ultimate edition down the line with everything including, this just makes it so I don't ever second guess that decision âī¸
The nicest thing I could say is that I was never planning to spent a single cent on any of these, free was the only way I was going to ever play them so thanks PlayStation... I guess đ¤ˇ
"original, single player-centric, and gameplay focused"
Was almost sold before now I'm super sold! Didn't think between this and Rise of the Ronin that Stellar Blade might be the better received game, hopefully after the first two hours the game gets even better!
I always say we don't have enough Marvel games in the industry, finally that's being remedied! Hopefully Santa Monica, Naughty Dog, Guerrilla Games, Sucker Punch, Bend Studio, Team ASOBI and a resurrected Japan Studio are all working on their own Marvel games! đ¤đ¤
Can we drop the PS4 first? We have been saying that since Ragnarok to just focus exclusively on the PS5. With that out of the way I will definitely be there day one, love the feeling of opening new hardware!
Sony needs to go all in on the handheld space and probably abandon VR (they unofficially have!). They got their feet wet with the Portal now make something that can go head to head with Switch, Steam Deck and Rog ally.
"It looks disappointingly poor, more like an early PS4 game than the latest PS5 hardware seller."
So they had the full power of the PS5 at their disposal and they couldn't even make it look as good as Killzone Shadow fall đ Well next up Stellar Blade here's hoping for better results!
Looks fantastic! the particle effects and details actually look this gen, the people saying this is low budget trash didn't actually see the gameplay trailer. There's clearly allot of love being put into this, will be a day one purchase for me.
I was interested but the price and the fact Sony basically pulled support after making one game for it has turned me off completely. The Virtual Boy, 32X and PS Vita had way (wayyyy) more first party support then the PSVR2 will ever have!
Bloodborne would have easily clear the entire list, especially on Twitter (still calling it that!). It's gaming malpractice that they didn't even add a 60fps patch that probably would have taken a couple of PlayStation interns a day at most.
@__jamiie "Would a game having an incomplete trophy list stop you from buying the game?"
In this case the PS4 version is complete so I will stick with that version, is not like they are very demanding games that need 4K 120fps. If there was only a PS5 version without the platinums I would just wait for a sale.
What a fall from grace, once upon a time when you saw the Atlus logo you knew that it was an automatic day one. Now when I see the logo I roll my eyes and then whatever game it is I know I will get it in 1-2 years if they catch me in a good mood đ¤ˇ
Wait the people on Gamepass get this for free!? So basically everyone on PlayStation is Atlus's pay pig and we get to subsidize Xbox owners? Sega can no longer hide the contempt they have for Sony ever since the Dreamcast.
Haven Studios is good candidate for shutting down, their game got the same reaction that Suicide Squad got and that game is basically dead and buried after a little over a month.
No thanks Sega I will wait for a complete edition at a reduced price, I have all the time in the world and plenty of great games to play while I wait đ
I want the game but I need either stable 60 or at least stable 30! I wonder why Capcom has had trouble with this game's performance when it doesn't look even remotely close graphically to Village or RE4 and they killed it with those games.
The guy is beyond delusional and should be in an Asylum (probably the Arkham one). He's really looking at what Fortnite makes and thinks "hey we can do that too but better!"
Definitely made my day, I hope the PC guys flock to it I want it to sell as much as possible. Weird they didn't start with the first one but I'll take what I can get!
