I came up on 3 ps5s! It was easy and simple. Just waited outside calmly, socially distant, with a mask on, to be respectful. And whenever someone came out, I just held them up at gunpoint. Don't know what all the fuss is about*
@Serious_Snape if you get d2:re on the switch, it should open new areas, avenues and places to game, away from home. All the while leaving the xbs/ps5 to game at home. First world problems, require first world solutions.
@antstephenson CoD3, 360 launch game, then mw 1&2, then it was mw(2019). Those were the games I bought, mainly for the single player campaigns. If I wanted multiplayer fun, the boys and I would bf:bc2 all night long.
@shamirqushairi good on you. I didn't say it was bad(5 out 10 or less), not attacking something you enjoy. Just saying it's "by the book"(6/7 out of 10).
@John117 it's a very "by the book" game. "Be anyone" mechanic is interesting, but picking an old lady, over a construction worker, doesn't change the game drastically. Both can still run, shoot, drive. The best thing about the game, it's super cheap with dlc, right now.
If you're burnt out on openworld, clear the map games(I am), this won't encourage you to come back. If it is your cup of tea, I recommend, since it's cheap.
I prefer [Prototype] over the spiderman games. Grabbing, anyone really, running to the top of a building and throwing them as far as Mercer could throw, is cathartic. Getting the full body armor and running through the streets, swatting away cars like so much New York debris, is awesome! Spiderman games, from the first ps iterations, to insomniac's masterpiece, haven't differed much. Ya swing, ya fight, ya web, ya move on. Spiderman: shattered dimensions was a nice break from the openworld format. Short story, long, I'm tired of the webhead. Tired of batman. We need some new comic/superhero blood.
I'm, unusually, excited about this rendition. But it's ubi, so temper expectations and wait. Ubi games drop in price faster than others. Fenyx was $30, pretty much, from the start.
When it comes to some games, I can't help but be reminded of this part of a film. In the movie harold and Kumar go to white castle, the duo come across the "extreme douches". The song blasting from their SUV reminds me of cod and madden, "SAME OLD, SAME OLD, SAME OLD SONG!!"
It is, what it is. I bought control on xbo. A while later got control awe for super cheap, for the series s. Life goes on, no ire from me in the slightest. But this hfw, man, that's another story
@Widey85 it's funny they say that, considering ps fanboys are always talking about "not paying $70! Gonna wait for a sale" sounds a little ironic. Sounds like something people without money would say.
What makes this a "tactical first person shooter" as opposed to a regular fps? Operation flashpoint games and the older rainbow six and ghost recon games were tactical. Is this along those lines or is this more CoD? Man, I miss those older gr and r6 games.
@Would_you_kindly I'm sure you can. Those consoles and carts are still widely available. You probably haven't played all of them. Might have to pay a premium though. "Time spent wishing, is time spent wasted" -the janitor
If remember correctly, cyberpunk was rumored to be in a "fully playable state" at one point. Hopefully there's a lot of polishing and shining going on.
Enter the gungeon Deadcells Hades Risk of rain 2 In no particular order, are some of the better roguelike, lite(?) I don't know, one of those two, games.
@Beermonkey I have a feeling aliens fireteam will get, whatever world war z got. Seems to be a game in the same vein. Multiplayer, class based, horde shooter, with a movie tie-in.
You should, maybe, throw annapurna and luis antonio's name in the article. Kojima was mentioned more than they were. At least once, "..kojima was enamored with annapurna's new game, developed by luis Antonio, 12 minutes"
Offended doesn't mean entitled. It means YOUR feelings were, somehow, hurt. That's it. No one asked they take the "no Russians" level out. They give a warning and an option to skip. No one asked to take out the unskippable torture sequence in gta v. There are more important things, in the world, to get upset about.

Meh, ps5 gets it now. Xbs x|s gets it better, with all dlc and most bugs worked out. It's not a multiplayer intensive game, like BF, so I can wait.
