The PC Master race scam is finally exposed, all those $2000 CPUs and GPUs were really just rebranded Pentium III's and GeForce3 Ti's the whole time.

Bebpo · « **Reply #22340 on:** August 08, 2019, 04:36:00 PM »

Yeah, I wanna try it at some point. Was gonna get it on PC since it'll run better (are there mods?) but PSVR is tempting to get it on PS. Would be nice if it becomes a free PS+ game at some point.

bluemax · « **Reply #22341 on:** August 09, 2019, 12:51:34 AM »

I wish I had bought a copy back when it was dirt cheap. I'll probably grab it on PS4 when I have money again so I can try the VR mode.

Akala · « **Reply #22344 on:** August 09, 2019, 09:00:45 AM »

No Man's Sky is looking great, and has possibly surpassed the vision in the initial sizzle reels that no one in their right mind believed. Really impressed that they keep chipping away at it the way they have when in all honesty no one would have begrudged them much to put most of the improvements in a sequel. It's allowed them to turn it around to generate actual goodwill among players...it's like the anti-Star Citizen. The only other game I can think of that has succeeded similarly is FFXIV.

Glad I picked up a copy when it was $10, wasn't that like 2 years ago? Or was it last black friday? Anyway, will need to try and play it soon I guess.

They should just remake the first three games and I would give them money.

Or a Liquid Snake spinoff, but I don’t think Konami can pull that off.

Honestly, it probably wouldn’t.

Technically, higher end phones might be faster, but 1) most phones have less RAM 2) thermal throttling 3) the OS won’t let them access all of the RAM/CPU/etc.

But the main series is fixed now, so I guess it's okay. Still could use the resources for something more interesting imo.

Never got to play Outbreak, but sounded like a really cool concept.
I wouldn't mind it coming back, even with a remaster.

Chooky · « **Reply #22352 on:** August 09, 2019, 07:13:39 PM »

outbreak was way too clumsy imo (and holy fuck the load times in 1) but it was a decent idea. unfortunately RE spinoffs tend to be unbelievably trash, but hey maybe they'll finally do right by the community this time.

kingv · « **Reply #22353 on:** August 09, 2019, 07:27:12 PM »

I’m a big fan of the co op over the should resident evils.

They succeed imo in being big dumb blockbuster games with horror themes, even if they are not really “horror” games.

I think there would be room for them to create a spin-off version of them that has some kind of coop gameplay even if it’s nonlonger the “core” series.

Downloaded the Twitch app on my PS3, to watch some background Saltybet but the streams won't load. Reboot the app, same. Reboot the system, same. Wonder if I have to create an account but the whole code rigamole doesn't work anyway. Google it : the app is obsolete and has not been supported in almost a year. You can still get it on the store and there's been little to no official communication about it from Sony.

Just 10 seconds into the trailer I stopped caring.

Not sure what EA thinks the target audience for this is. People who've just seen Hobbs and Shaw and/or haven't bought enough racing games yet this generation?
The trailer also doesn't show the season passes, micro transactions and randomized loot.
The 5 seconds of what I think was intended to be the gameplay basically shows the same driving mechanics and physics as the last game.

Short little article about Ustwo Games. They made Monument Valley 1 and 2. My avatar is from that game (at least at the time of this post).
Not much to the article. Just explaining how the team deals with having a breakout hit, following it up and existing as a small, but not basement dweller small, company in the mobile space where so much is free to play.

I actually really liked how they went back to the FMV cutscenes in one of the recent games. You can kinda play these like TXR and just do random races, but I agree there should be some sort of dedicated mode for it. I really don't give a shit about the story mode in a racing game.
