Well, those are the two big questions,
and they do have a bearing on the relativity of the situation:
#1, as such time as it arrives it's going to rival or best PC?
I don't see that happening.
#2,PRICE, go above $500 and you got some serious problems, at $500 a lot of early adoption comes to a screeching halt.
But we shall see, it's always nice to be pleasantly surprised 👌😉
I'll agree with you on breakpoint being a failure (so far) they pledged to make it into something good, so we'll see what happens.
but I have to absolutely disagree with you on the division 2.
when they fixed the first one,
I was amazed.
I never dreamed they'd put the resources and time in to do what they did to fix it and bring it back around, I enjoyed the hell out of it.
the second one has been nothing but non-stop fun for me.
Processors in chipsets becoming cheaper, simply because of the next-generation upgrade,
along with Nintendo's innovative approach... Always possible 🤔
they're very flexible In what they do, always.
not a Nintendo adopter or fan as far as playing,
but I respect who and what they are... and I certainly think there's Credence to this argument,
that people that would be Nintendo centric to play certain styles of games on t...
I still plan on holding off playing it for about another three to six months, after all the patching/refitting is done, but I was in GameStop the other day, and it was discounted to below $18, so I went ahead and picked it up to put it in the backlog...
at this point, no matter how much further it goes down you can't go wrong, if you're even mildly interested in it...
... and that was/is exactly my argument for Crackdown 3...🤔
But also part of your argument is that it's not a rational thought, or Fair judgement, to look at videos of a game or watch reviews or gameplay demos,
and extrapolate from that whether or not it really truly is an interesting enough game to invest your own time, and it's how we all make judgments, as to what we'll play and what we want.
Also: it's not often that you hear as...
... this being one of the most heavily reviewed games, as far as sheer numbers, in the longest time I can think of, I have to give some credibility to all of the videos, posted along with the reviews.
the sheer number of people saying exactly the same things:
that it's boring.
it's repetitive.
it's a slog.
that it isn't fun.
it's the same continuous loop of delivery quests...
Once again I'm going to br...

"Why on Earth would you want to play it on Xbox"
"I cringe at the thought of playing it on Xbox"
I cringe at the thought of such an infantile mentality... 🙄
I think it was a situation where he wanted to be free of konami and Branch out to do different things.
either way and he got tired of having overlords and being so heavily structured and constantly scrutinized, even though he had made ridiculous amounts of money for them.
as far as being an independent and the funding and publishing deals that he has now?
that's him working freely on his own and naturally you want to be super careful about biting the hand tha...
Really, he didn't do all the work himself...
Maybe then I'd be impressed.
kind of reminds me of tomonobu itagaki and all the credit he took for Ninja gaiden games.
all these people do is stand over their teams and iterate.
they're essentially game directors and certainly true enough they're skilled, very talented actually, and have good solid vision but the hype just like anything else gets a little sickening...
hopefully kojima...
And:
They'll be doing it for all games across the board, right?
even the ones on Xbox?
Just like was done for crackdown 3,
Not to mention all the nothing reviewers, running a review site out of their basement that decided to jump on the negative bandwagon,
because Sony is the majority console share and they'll do anything to get clicks, so a negative pile-on for the game already perceived to be disliked by an audience, they're trying to...
Yes I have, and they are garbage.
Funny, how if you do a simple Google: problems with PlayStation 4 controllers...
Repairing controllers at a game store, really?
Yeah that's why the shape of the body on the new PS5 controller (from photos of the leaked devkit) shows almost exactly the same body shape as an Xbox controller.
Also the number one selling second party controller for PlayStation, is the scuf controller.
and they're line of PlayStation controllers have exactly the Xbox controller body shape, every single one of them.
I've done nothing but listen to people complain how cheap and shoddy PlayStation contro...
No, crackdown 3 wasn't awful.
not by any means.
just part of the hate campaign game was exactly what it was supposed to be, and was a ton of fun...
When a game has five times the amount of negative reviews as it does numbers for purchase it sort of says something:
Like ( just for instance) maybe there was a huge amount of review bombing, from people that never played it 🤔❗
Nova, anyone?
I'm actually quite interested in this. I'm very surprised by the short play time 8 hours worth of story, although, I don't know about any sidequesting... still, always best to wait at least a good 90 days when all the patching should be complete.
I personally think this is ripe for
Gamepass,
I'd be surprised if we don't see it there in 6 months, tops...
It got precisely what it deserved,
for what / how it was released.
but I can't say that a lot of it wasn't SOME negative public sentiment there as well, against Randy pitchford and all of his lying bullshit with aliens colonial Marines.
I feel sorry for the devs but the game WAS a trainwreck...
and he deserved to have that ten-ton Boulder dropped on his company for fucking people.
Abit off topic (because it's not about death threats) but I was just in another thread where we were discussing the need for a game to have a lot of systems overhauled and have improvements done to it...
(ghost recon: breakpoint, though arguably it it's in much worse shape than modern warfare)
such a shame this is becoming the norm in everything...
along with idiots making one-off statements like your kids should die🙄 unbelievable...
