I'm hoping the learning curve is not as bad as the first game. The first game was far too frustrating for me. I'll give it a go. In the above video, the narrator says "it's combat is brutal." Not sure I want a FPS Dark Souls.
@themightyant Yes, that's exactly why. When they start adding in "top surgery scars" in the character customization screen, it's time to turn your back and vote with your wallet. Trash game, trash developer trying too hard to be politically correct.
Not Dragon Age, lol. Black Ops 6 for sure on Game Pass. Nothing this weekend on the PS5. Waiting for my PS5 pro to come in before I start anything new.
@themightyant Ahead of COD? Dude, if I saw that in writing, I still would not believe it. Lol. This game is a crapfest. They will never get back the 150 million (minimum) that they spent on development.
On mission three of the campaign. This might be the best campaign yet. It is obvious that a lot of time was spent making this. Very detailed and many things to do. Just saw someone online stating that it seems unfinished. That is the exact opposite of what I am seeing. It looks like a game that has been in development for years. Not sure which game this person is playing. Lol.
I've never played a bad Halo game, but Infinite was exceptionally good out of the three listed. Halo is probably my favorite gaming franchise. Too many great memories. Especially with the first three in the series.
Of course he's proud. He just worked on it and it just came out. He's not going to say "this is the new project I just finished working on and it's absolute crap." lol. Reminds me of when a band comes out with a new album and they say "this is the best album we've ever done." I mean, duh.
Is God of War coming to the Series X? Good Lord, get a grip Microsoft and stop failing already. Figure yourselves out. I realize Microsoft is worth trillions and Sony is not, but the Xbox division is pathetic compared to Playstation. Perhaps Sony should manage the Xbox.
They will announce that they are working on Halo 7 and it's going to be amazing, but it's about five years away from release. I've given up hope on the Halo franchise at this point. I hope they prove me wrong.
Awesome, so this means that Halo 7 will expect to be out in 2028, but delayed until 2030 with launch bugs, updated sometime between 2031-2033. Co-op and 60 fps not possible, unless there is a Playstation port. Then the sky is the limit!
Same score my buddy gave it after playing it for about 10 hours. I'm convinced that Microsoft (and/or the developers they own) have lost the ability to make great exclusive games.
I'm a level 0 so I'm guessing I cannot play it. Honestly, I thought Starfailed was going to be great when it launched. I played about three hours of it and thought it was horrible. Redfail was better.
I pre-ordered one. I'm a tech geek, but I definitely didn't need a PS5 Pro. Just wanted one. Had no problem getting one. Just went on PS Direct and they still have them available so I believe the price ruined it for a lot of potential buyers.
Could not care less about this. Dead Rising, Until Dawn and the Silent Hill 2 remake are all coming out a few weeks before COD, so I'm in no rush for the campaign.
The Halo 2 midnight launch for the OG Xbox. November 9, 2004 I believe. It looked like we were all sleeping out for concert tickets (like people used to do). The line was all the way around the Gamestop building and they had vendors, music. It is probably my best Xbox memory. I remember thinking "it doesn't get much bigger than this." Everyone was sharing their gamertag with everyone else so we could all send friend requests and play some Halo 2 multiplayer. Now, all my Xbox friends see to be ok playing by themselves with almost all of them showing "offline" status. Lol.
Do you know who is buying this console? No one! However, if they have a 50% off sale, I'll pick one up. If anyone comes across any coupons, let me know.
This studio always makes great games. Not sure how anyone can argue otherwise. I'm about three hours into this and I'm loving it. It's nice to play a game once in a while and not die every five minutes.
I mean, I admire their enthusiasm. But, no. Never going to be a Skyrim. Starfailed is just not a good overall game. Not much can change that. My advice to Bethesda is to fail less. Make better games and gamers will play them more. Problem solved.

PS Premium (not PS Plus) - 8 million.
So, there's that. Maybe that should be reported.
