Sometimes buying a new console requires you to take a new lease on life.
With a flurry of new entertainment boxes making their way into our living rooms this coming holiday season, it’s awful difficult to believe that a lot of young game-enthusiasts will have enough dough to throw down close to $1000 for these two pieces of hardware.
All available May 5.
Its like the final episode of the Sapranos. You gonna go to make a comment and when you click add th-
I think the only game here for me is Nine Sols. Was always interested in that game.
Good month for me, I wanted that particular footy game and thought it might be due. Anyway who cares, shame about the site I'll miss the comment sections. All the best everyone.
Naughty Dog was reportedly divided on the controversial fate of Joel in The Last of Us Part 2 during the game's development.
Funny considering Bruce left half way through development and now we get told there was an internal conflict with the story direction.
Makes you think…
I think it was good decision, if he was still alive, he would have been a mascot just like Kratos, drake and many others. These old dudes gotta die for new characters to take center stage with their own storyline. They keep dragging the emotional baggage into many sequels and eventually the story just turns into absolute shit show.
It was ironic because people complained heavily about the story in the Uncharted games not having sufficient stakes because all the key characters always survived, despite the dangerous situations they were always in. Then ND killed a character in a more serious series and everyone lost their minds. Just shows that people don't always really want the thing they say they want.
I thought the more common complaint about Uncharted franchise was how the main cast are the good guys acting so nonchalantly while killing hundreds in cold blood (aka the dissonance between gameplay and story cutscenes). They just did it again in Part II.
I don't think he would necessarily need to become a mascot (and besides, technically, I'd say Ellie is... So regardless, someone was going to be).
From a narrative perspective, I do think it has a similar effect to Ricky dying in Boyz N Da Hood: very likeable character, and you're really motivated to see the get back—in this case, it's more intense because it's an interactive experience. Most people hated Abby, but I get what they were after with portraying the cycle of violence and revenge—unfortunately, the game appears to want to take the side of the bad people.
But I will say that if Joel survived, it does become harder to tell an interesting story. What COULD have happened is an exploration into the rift between Joel and Ellie after the trolley dilemma events of the first game. It could have been interesting to see Abby out for revenge at the same time Ellie hated Joel.
Sorry just had to say this lol! RICKYYYY!
Man Cuba Gooding Jr was miscast in that movie, but that part was cringey it was sad and funny at the same time man.
I understand but the way they went about killing Joel, was poorly executed. Even the show of the Last of Us games tried to improved it, but it was just as bad. Well at least Joel got to know the reason why he had to die, before the death happened in the show. That part gave us the full context, but the game just let it happen with no pay off.
Joel death should have been a midway thing through the story, so we at least get to play him a little more with Ellie. Abby didn’t need to be this Hulk looking woman, but more like the show Abby which is a beater idea in my opinion.
Honestly as much as I loved the game, they could have just not killed him off.
I get it creator vision and all but killing a character that made you millions is just wrong imo. At least have him go down fighting.
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
nice article....my plans are the same. I always get them all and I plan on doing this next gen. but ps4 will be the first because it appeals to me and what I want in a system more than xb1. I am still weary about ms next console because they seem confused and willing to put themselves first and buying customers last. I don't trust them like i did with the 360...I suffered from 2rrod within 2.5 years....yes ive suffered feom 2 failed ps3 1 ylod and recently a failed blu ray reader. but it was over a 7 year period.
sony being a hardware company and ms a software company is highly the reason sony will win in hardware durability.BUT what won me over to ps4 being my first console is the price, and the customer love sony is bringing lately in ps+ and the no drm restricting bs.....I know ms dropped the drm but simply because sony didnt do it. if sony did the same we would be looking at a very restricted future...and I applaud them for giving gamers what they wanted. .....that and the love they are giving indies....my first choice was simple....but thats me ...ms fans who are getting xb1 game on fellow gamers no judgment here. ill wait a year or so to see if ms does another 180 or their hardware is stable enough.
I actually plan on grabbing all 3 this gen. I don't plan on missing out on anything.
PS4 will be my first priority. I'll probably get the One after looking at some of the reception and seeing if it is worth my money and I'll get the WiiU when some more games come out for it.
I am the judge of what is enough for me and yes one console is enough for me. PS4 for me thanks
Get rid off PS4 and I will be happy with one console which is Xbox One
I'm getting xbox one because the games appeal to me even the games that didn't show gameplay made me want them because of the developer's previous products or just the trailer and knowing the genre. E3 was sooo impressive: Ryse, Dead Rising 3, Quantum Break, Halo 5, Black Tusk game, Killer Instinct, Sunset Overdrive, Titanfall, D4, Crimson Dragon, Project Spark. Wow Microsoft great lineup.
