  1. This looks really cool, I'm getting like Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon and Bulletstorm vibes from the gameplay, and maybe with a hint of Doom. I really like the art style along with the music. Which is why I was reminded a lot of Blood Dragon. Maybe more so with the neon glow of things. This is another game that released a demo recently on Steam - https://store.steampowered.com/app/2111190/MULLET_MAD_JACK/
  2. I wish I had a PS VR or a VR headset period. This looks like a lot of fun, kind of reminds me of Mirror's Edge, but in VR. Speaking of, they should make a Mirror's Edge VR game if they haven't already. Anyway, back to the subject. This game is releasing for the PS VR2, but there is currently no release date. Though you can wish-list it on the PlayStation store here - https://store.playstation.com/en-us/concept/10008454
  3. Are there any games that you remember loving as a kid, but then as you got older, you either lost interest in it or just can't stand it anymore. I think for me, it's more to do with fighting games in general. These days I'm not too heavily into fighting games, though I will play some from time to time. But, back when I was a kid I was really into them. I loved learning the special moves and fatalities in the first Mortal Kombat, and played my fair share of the Street Fighter games. But now days I can't get into them, maybe I don't have the patience to learn them. What about you though? Are there any games you grew up with that you can't stand to play anymore? I still play wrestling games, but even those I'm losing interest in.
  4. Has anyone heard of this? It's one of those narrative adventure games where the story is the main focus. The cool thing about this one, is the graphics make it look to be in claymation. I don't think it's real Claymation or if they made the characters in the style of it, but it's pleasing to see in a video game format. It looks to be coming out for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S & PC.
  5. This looks pretty interesting. From what I can tell, you have to use one single bullet to take out a group of enemies. It kind of reminds me of Hitman's Sniper Challenge, but where you can only use one bullet. Instead, you have to plan out who to take out first in order to then control your bullet to target other enemies. It's kind of nifty how they do it. I hope it plays well. Also, it's developed by Devolver Digital and has no official release date as of this moment. But you can play the demo on Steam. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1309950/Children_of_the_Sun/
  6. With physical games likely dying with the next generation of consoles or even sooner than that, do you think that it could result in more digital sales in the future? With physical gone, that means the attention will go to digital distribution, but with that, I hope they do more sales on digital games. Do you think that could happen? Or are we going to see no changes to the way digital sales go?
  7. Has anyone played this game yet? It's a new online 4v4 third person shooter where you use foam to help you move faster through the environment. I also believe you can use the foam as an obstacle for opponents. It's heavily inspired by Splatoon, but instead of having to cover the whole area with paint, you instead spray foam. The foam doesn't give you any points if you cover the whole area, but it gives you more speed from what I'm seeing. It's got other modes like PVP & PVE modes. It also looks to be exclusive to the PS4 and PS5 right now, and it looks like it has a lot of elements of live service, so expect this to probably die out in a few months unless it somehow picks up fans.
  8. The new Tomb Raider I-III Remastered is coming out tomorrow, and it made me wonder about other classic PS1 titles that should get the remaster treatment. This new Tomb Raider remastered set changes some things, mainly the graphics, but other than that, I believe the controls are as they were back on the PS1. Anyway, I was curious, are there any PS1 classics you'd like to see get the remaster treatment next? I would love to see the Syphon Filter series get a remastered set, maybe Dyno Crisis, Ape Escape, Tenchu 1 & 2, Einhander (I'd love this one specifically), Driver 1 & 2, Silent Hill, and more. What PS1 games would you like to see remastered like the Tomb Raider trilogy?
  9. Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden is a new action RPG that dropped today. I'm seeing it's getting some decent reviews. I see DON'T NOD are the ones who developed it, and I like what they've done in the past, especially with Life is Strange. I played a bit of Tell Me Why and just finished Jusant a month or two ago. And in traditional DON'T NOD style, the choices you make will have an impact on the story.
  10. Has anyone been dealing with this? I recently deleted a bunch of games to make room for a game from gamepass. I went to download the game and it encountered an error where it wouldn't download, but it kept saying download. I made sure to cancel in the EA app and it seemed to be fine, but the Xbox App was bricked up and wouldn't let me download the game. So I closed out of the Xbox app and reloaded it, this time it gets stuck at the Xbox logo. I tried just about everything; Deleted app, reinstalled, moved it do a different drive and did other steps, nothing. And then I decided to check the reviews for the app and a lot of the reviews are saying they are having similar issues. Here I thought this was just an issue with my PC and I was getting worried I'd have to re-install windows to get Xbox to work again. Thankfully I found the fix in the reviews, and I figured I'd share it here if anyone is dealing with the same issue, as it seems to be affecting a lot of people after the recent update. This was the review that solved the issue:
  11. I remember hearing years ago about how some people would put down the initial $5 to put in a pre-order at GameStop, and completely forget they had said pre-order in. I heard it resulted in them making a lot of money because GameStop assumed they weren't going to see those pre-orders happen. So they got to keep the $5 from all of these no-show pre-orders. I wish I could find the article, or story it was mentioned in. But I know it was something about how many pre-orders they have in that are forgotten. It also makes me wonder if some people put in more than the $5. I imagine they have rules that if you don't complete the pre-order they can eventually keep it, even if you put in more than $5. I think it'd be better if they put that money in as store credit instead of keeping it. Considering that money was supposed to go towards a game, so if they forget to complete the pre-order and if they have an account, it should be put in as credit. Or if they don't have an account, then they can place the money on hold for a certain period than keep it if it's never claimed. Anyway, have you ever put money down at GameStop or other stores and forget about it? I don't think I ever put money down for a pre-order and forgot, I'm the type who doesn't like to pre-order to begin with. I don't see a point in doing it. If I want it, I'll buy it when it releases. But I know some people like to pre-order stuff. Then again, pre-ordering might be a thing of the past if video games and other media go completely digital. Which I think is the direction we're heading unfortunately.
  12. I think we've all dealt with bad people while gaming. Whether it be a person you killed in a game, or just an annoying jerk who is saying offensive things in chat that you're against. Have you ever dealt with gamers who wouldn't leave you alone to the point it becomes harassment? I've had my share of spats in online games, but none of them have ever resulted in prolonged harassment, but I know it happens all over the web, not just in gaming. If you've ever deal with someone who continues to bully and harrass you, what do you do? What I usually do is block, mute and if they were really awful, report them and move on. But I was lucky and never did deal with prolonged harassment from those I had issues with. Like them creating new accounts to keep attacking you, or finding you through social media. Etc. Have you dealt with anything like this?
  13. Amazon Luna is something I don't often hear mentioned. I saw it was mentioned in an article for an upcoming game and I was immediately brought back to Google Stadia and how forgotten that was. I know Luna is much more popular, but it doesn't feel like it when I don't hear anything about it these days. Is it still used fairly often? Is Amazon producing their own games for the platform? From what I see, it's mostly games already available on other platforms, or mobile style games. I'm sure down the road it'll become more popular. Maybe once streaming fully takes off, but I think that's going to be a ways off. Do you think Luna can stick around longer than what Stadia was able to stick around for?
  14. This looks like a lot of fun. it's a twin stick shooter where you play as officer named John Mustache, and you must go deep into hell to battle hoardes of enemies all the while you collect loot, upgrade weapons, and fight bosses. It's been on steam since July 2016, but it looks to be dropping on the Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One today. Has anyone here played the original on PC? How is it?
  15. Do you think at some point all games will go the VR route? Or do you think most games will find a way to support VR in some way? I think it'd be cool if all games worked in VR right away. It doesnt mean they have to work with VR controls, but to be able to play most games in VR would be a nice addition. There are modders who are making it possible to play not VR games in VR, so it doesn't sound impossible. What do you think?
  16. Rocksteady is a highly respected development team, but I really think it's time to give the Batman IP to another studio going forward. The new suicide squad game looks like it's going to turn out to be a failure, much like that Avengers live service game. I don't see this game having any staying power. I love the Arkham games too, but even with those games, Rocksteady never really changed much. The controls and combat was usually always the same in each game. Hell even boss fights were similar in most of the games. But I think Suicide Squad has officially killed it. I haven't played it yet, but I assume the live service aspect of it is going to push people away. I'd rather have a 4 player co-op game where you play a story like in the Arkham games, but this live service stuff is only going to see it fall faster. I think it's time to let Rocksteady do other things, and give Batman or any DC properties to someone else.
  17. If you're a fan of Subnautica, then you will probably be happy to hear that Subnautica 2 is expected to release sometime in 2025. It's being said it will come with a single player mode and a 4 player co-op mode. Not much is currently known on the game, but you can find this news here: https://www.gamewatcher.com/news/Subnautica-2-release-date-everything-we-know The original post got the date wrong, mentioned 2024, but it has been updated to include a note from the dev team about it's official release, which is said to be sometime in 2025. Who played the first game and enjoyed it? Are you psyched for it?
  18. Out of each PlayStation console, what do you consider to be the best based on design and looks? I think the PS1 has a lot of character, plus I think it's part nostalgia. I think the PS2 looked lazy on the other hand. Just this sharp, black box with a DVD drive. It still like the design, just looked lazy to me. The early PS3 wasn't that appealing to me, I think I preferred the later models that came out with the newer font. The PS4 I thought looked decent enough, but the PS5 can never not look like a giant modem or WiFi router. Anyway, out of all the PlayStation console, which one looks the best to you?
  19. Runescape has been around since 2001, though there has been a new Runescape in recent years, it's still relatively the same game and experience, with some new additions here and there. With that being said, how is this game still so popular? I remember when I was 11 or 12, playing this game for the first time. Never did I expect it to last until this point and time. I think the original version is still played by people to this day. I stopped playing it when I was around 14 or 15. Just didn't see the appeal in it and peaced out. But I know people who have played it as recently as months ago. Who here still plays it? Is it worth playing?
  20. I know the main one is probably Super Mario, the series has expanded out to many different genres, from Mario Kart, to Mario Tennis, Soccer, the Olympics even. Plus Mario Party, Paper Mario, Super Smash Brothers, Yoshi's Island, Toadstool games, etc. What other franchises are known to put out various spin-offs? Sonic has some spin-offs, no pun intended. What are some other franchises you know of that has done various kinds of spin-offs?
  21. CLeM was just released yesterday on PC (via Steam) and looks to be a decent little point and click game with a lot of puzzles. They are calling the game a "Puzzlevania" due to the amount of puzzles in the game. You play as a stuffed sack thing, that looks somewhat similar to Sack Boy from LittleBigPlanet. The purpose is to complete puzzles and to complete tasks for a little girl, likely the toys owner. The game is developed by Mango Protocol. I haven't played anything they've made, but this looks like it'd be a bit of relaxing fun.
  22. There is a new turn-based tactics/strategy game called Classified: France '44 coming out this March. It looks similar to games like Company of Heroes, and any other strategy game with a war theme. It will release for the PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One. It's also developed by Team17, who has developed a lot of the Worms games, The Escapists and the Overcooked franchise. So they're pretty well known for the strategy genre. Anyway, is this something you'd get on release? ill
  23. Source - https://gamerant.com/uncharted-1-remake-ps5-drakes-fortune/ It's being rumored that there is an Uncharted: Drake's Fortune remake on the way, and it could be coming out for the PS5. Now this is just rumor, as the rumor came from the team at Xbox Era podcast, stating they heard a remake was pitched, and it was strongly considered by Sony. This of course brings us to Naughty Dog, and Neil Druckmann, who has been quoted saying that they are done with the Uncharted series as they want to focus on something new. So that either means a remake is likely not happening, or they are dropping it off to a smaller studio to take on, which has happened with some remakes in the past. What do you think though? Would you welcome a remake of the original game? If Naughty Dog doesn't develop, who do you think could? Bluepoint did the work on The Nathan Drake Collection, so maybe they can be tasked with a remake? You can read about Naughty Dog being done with Uncharted here - The link to the article doesn't work anymore, but I was able to find another site that had the news - https://ftw.usatoday.com/2023/01/new-uncharted-games-not-happening-naughty-dog-says
  24. Judas is a new narrative driven first person shooter made from the creator of Bioshock, Ken Levine and his studio Ghost Story Games. You can see the new trailer below, looks very similar to Bioshock, even similar in terms of characters and gameplay. This looks like a spiritual successor to Bioshock if anything.
  25. Source - https://mp1st.com/news/instinction-alpha-test-begins-june-2024-dinosaur-count-new-story-details-and-more-revealed There is a new Dinosaur action adventure game coming soon, with a Alpha test beginning in June of 2024 for those who have pre-ordered the Supporter Edition. The game is called Instinction, and in it, you take control of an ecologist who has to cope with the realities of being in this new world. I hear it was heavily inspired by Dyno Crisis, which makes sense. Is this something you'd be into checking out?
