I work in a electronic shop and yes, alot of manufactures are struggling. There's weeks of waiting for a lot of appliances and tech. Some of which is down to worldwide issues, some down to Brexit (UK here). This isn't exclusive to console makers. It's happening to cars, applicences, laptops, phones, tablets, the lot and there don't seem to be any form of stability in the near future either.
Manufacturing, energy crisis, in some places, COVID is still affecti...
The same here in the UK. In work in Currys and XSS are always in stock and we've had quite a few XSX in too which hardly fly off the shelves either. That being said we've had PS5s in-store twice since release. They are usually all sold via online orders before they even make it into stores for people to buy.
I'm interested in this game but I haven't been following it. I was always under the impression it was free to play but they're charging £32 on the PS store?
The Xbox UI is a mess? It has been since forcing the whole windows 10 look on us. It's the most unfriendly UI for navigation of all the three main consoles.
I'm primarily a PS5 player and whilst I think the PS4 UI is better, Xboxs is cumbersome. So many menus inside of menus just to get to basic features. It's frustrating.
Whilst the gameplay is subjective to the player, you cannot say the Zurk chase sequences weren't great. Also the graphics dated? Did you play or watch someone play it on a low end PC? The graphics and lighting on PS5 looks really good. The detail in the world also put a lot of AAA games to shame.
As someone who doesn't follow crypto and NFTs, am I wrong in thinking the whole market has crashed according to media outlets? Why are SE doing this now when the ship (for now) has seemingly sailed?
It has massively failed for Ubisoft already. Is this a case of ignorance, poor timing or purely greed in the hope they will rise again after this so called crash?
Tbh I'm mainly a PS player but Sony isn't the same Sony from the Late PS3/early to mid PS4. They are making a lot of questionable decisions on games and services. Places like here where we are mainly PS fans don't like to see the negatives but on the whole when looking at other corners of the internet, people are not happy with a lot of things Sony are doing lately, even Pro Sony journos and YouTubers.
18 months already?! It's cool that it's getting new content but what baffles me is the fact that means we've had next gen consoles for just as long and it still doesn't feel like we've even began yet outside of a handful of exclusives from Sony. I wish there weren't a component shortage so we could drop last gen already. My PS5 is a glorified PS4 Pro atm
This isn't me shitting on the Duel Sense and it's a fantastic controller but it does have its issues with the springs in the triggers. I've unfortunately had it and there's a huge thread on Reddit about it and how they were snapping which they've addressed in the new colourways with thicker springs.
My launch controller also used to get a crazy amount of interference and start doing things on its own something my new blue controller doesn't do too. ...
Media (mainly American) will forever get British accents wrong because there's over 100 different accents in the UK but always go for posh country folk. You could live in the most run down area and Hollywood would still have you the character speaking like a royal. Here in Britain there a different accent every few miles lol
Off topic but I'm still gutted that the TV series didn't use the same animated style as the game. Went from full Disney to Cartoon Network. I felt the artstyle is what made so many people fall in love with the game
People complain about Fallout 76 for good reason. When you take off your rose tinted glasses you will see a reoccurring pattern with Bethesda Softworks lack of skill that oozes out of it long before Fallout 76.
Any other developer with dated animations, terrible voice acting, below par visuals for the generation it's on, bugs, glitches, game breaking bugs they would be slaughtered (Cyberpunk 2077 says hello) but Bethesda releases broken game after game and gets praise f...
I want fixed camera view as well. The RE5 DLC that had the classic camera Easter egg was great. It will never happen though. RE1 remake is still my favourite remake. It's timeless.
Each to there own but even with gamepass this game didn't look worth the download. Unfortunately from what was shown it looked like another buggy, poorly optimised game with bad animations that will win GOTY because it's a Bethesda Softworks game.
I've said it once and I'll say it again, Bethesda Softworks get a free pass from gamers and journos. If any other game has any of the issues BS games do, they are scrutinized and marked down for it. Bethesda inste...
Aren't as prolific as they used to be? What have you based that on? The vocal minority who review bomb websites like metacritic, use game website comment sections and sub reddits that the majority of people don't know exist?
I agree it's a needless remake (my guess is that it intends to cash in on the TV shows potential mainstream success) but ND is as profllific as they come as a studio.
I'm playing though them all again at the moment. Finished the first and second game but mainly cause I want to play 3 and 4 again. I don't really remember much of the fourth game but I remember not liking as much as the previous games because of its more serious tone compared to the previous games so I'm playing them all again just to see if my perception is still the same.
I'm not a cat person but I appreciate when developers take the time to create game characters that are different. Back in the early Playstation and Dreamcast days we'd play as toys, animals, aliens, humans, robots and everything in-between. (Toy Commander, Stubbs the Zombie, Crash Bandicoot, Destroy All Humans etc).
I feel as gaming has got older, it sometimes feels like it lost its sense of fun at times
@Frosty, this is being made by a lot of the original development team who made Dead Space. No doubt the DS remake will be good but I'm more excited for an original experience over a remake not being made by the original team
Best single player open world game out there? What?!
The media has fully gassed people into believing Bethesda Softworks games are good. They always have a endless list of issues but get awarded 9s/10s and GOTY but games just as busted will get scrutinised and marked down for having the exact same issues. So much bias towards a frankly mid tier dev team
