As long as I can still play quality games on my PS4 then I couldn't care less what other people are doing.
EA seem to be regularly shooting themselves in the foot lately.
God of War is the king of QTEs for me, many unforgettable moments that probably couldn't have been handled any other way apart from a less exciting cut scene. Decent windows for the button presses too, they wanted you to get it right not try and trip you up.
Although Cole's reaction wasn't always what I expected I found that most of the time it was close enough that the way I wanted to take the conversation was respected. So any tweaks are probably good things but not especially essential.
Nice one 👍
Yeah it's not a strong month but if you were expecting a good selection every month then you're deluded. Some good, some bad. That's life.
So nobody is bothered in the slightest that it looks like proper gore has been replaced with family friendly orange 'energy'? Nobody feels that blood and guts is a staple of the series? Because it is. Ultra violence is part of the appeal.
I hope it's just for the trailers in which case I retract any criticism on that score. If not then it's a shame.
Also have to say the kid does have the potential to be annoying. That American accent is j...
I actually share these two concerns, I also found the kid a little annoying in the trailer and if the finished game does indeed have orange 'energy' instead of proper gore then that's an unwelcome tonal shift. Neither is a deal breaker or even anywhere near being one but they are potentially valid criticisms.
I think it's a shame that they did so much work on updating the graphics but left the controls with the same problems that have been known about since the game came out. Hard to understand their thinking.
The double digit playerbase shrank by 20% so there's what, 8 people still playing it?
If only the two franchises could combine to make a game with the best of both, chiefly the gameplay of PES with the presentation of FIFA. It'd be some game.
Not exactly a crowded genre is it but usually a fun one.
'Social Hub'. Not a phrase I wanted to hear in connection with this particular game. I trust them not to abuse MTs and all that stuff but it's not what I was hoping for.
Yeah but what about the PC2 and GTS comparison? WHAT ABOUT THE COMPARISON?
Am I the only one who would be interested in a PC2 and GTS comparison? It feels like the most relevant comparison and it's the only one I haven't seen on here.
It's kind of nuts that they had a pretty solid game but it fails because of severe balancing issues that could have been easily fixed. Was their QA team high AF or something?
Fair play they sound on a par at least then. I guess I just prefer the overall look of Forza, seems more vibrant.
I'd have to disagree with you there, GT always has pretty cars and dull tracks and this one doesn't look any different. I'm not talking about visual clarity or how high the definition is, I mean things like spectator animations, weather effects, dynamic shadows, little details like the helicopter flying by in Forza. These are the things that make a game feel real and alive and I'm not buying that GTS has far more going on there, far less it seems to me.
I haven't played either so I don't know how consistent this is but the thing that struck me was the presence of lively spectators in Forza compared to none at all in GT. It makes the difference between a raceday feel and what might as well be a race in an industrial estate with nobody watching.
I'm not too bothered about small differences in graphics when both are clearly excellent but there's more to it than that. Convincing environments and atmosphere are...
I loved FF8 to bits and if it had been the first one I'd played, which was actually FF7, I've got no doubt it'd be my favourite of the series. Everything about it struck a note with me as I was about the same age as Squall at the time. The stories, the characters and the romance, it was all amazing.
