This really wasn't a bad little game. A little repetitive but the graphics and mechanics were solid. I enjoyed the Switch version a lot with the Star Fox integration.
There's no way MS could've waited that long to launch XSX. If MS allowed Sony to be the only next gen game in town for a year or two, they would have gotten absolutely buried. The Xbox 360 had a year head start over the PS3, and even as huge a brand as PlayStation was at the time, it took Sony almost the entire generation to catch up in sales.
The mistake MS has made this early in the generation is they didn't go out and get an existing franchise or two to be ...
@rlow1
Psychonauts 2 is not exclusive.
Waiting until the true next gen patch is released.
@SullysCigar
LOL exactly! "Neither next gen consoles have anything to play "
Yeah ok. I guess I just imagined platinuming Astros Playroom and Bugsnax while currently playing Sackboy A Big Adventure. I guess Miles Morales and Demons Souls ARENT sitting in my que, waiting to be played. I guess Dedtruction All Stars ISNT coming in January!
I love it when Xbox fans try to lump PS5 in with XSX's issues as if both consoles are experiencing the exact same problem when in reality its not even comparable. Theres only one console thats experiencing a "lack of new games" and thats Xbox.
@The Wood
Right?? What spell does MS have these sheep under? Ill never in a million years understand how anyone looks at that platform and says "Yep!: Thats the one for me!" When their competition just completely knocks the snot out of them game wise. I could understand it if the platforms were more comparable but they're really not close at all.
Same. MS broke my trust this past generation. When you buy a Nintendo or PlayStation console, you KNOW you're getting quality exclusives. With MS, I simply don't have that same assurance. McCaffery is one of the biggest Xbox apologists in the gaming media, so I take anything he says with a grain of salt because its never truly objective. MS will have to prove it to me before they get my money.
How exactly is the story "far leftist trash"? What do you even mean when you say that?Qualify your point of view on this. Is it simply because it features two gay characters and a trans character? Is it because it features an abnormally strong female character? What's wrong with that? You do know those people exist in the real world, right? Heaven forbid a game gets created that doesn't simply feature straight white males.
Yeah sure. The fact that its a fantastic game had zero to do with it, right? It was TOTALLY driven by politics. I'll bet you think the election was rigged too dont you.
@Imalways right.
Joel got soft. He found his home. He reconnected with his brother. He had another daughter-like relationship with Ellie. Plus he found a sense of community and security. His guard was down. Plus let's face it, he also got 4 years older. Whats funny is Bill prophesied this in the first game! He told Joel...
"Once upon a time, I had somebody that I cared about. It was a partner. Somebody I had to look after. And in this worl...
Well...it did. Whats the point in complaining over it now? Some would say Red Dead 2 shouldve won over God of War. Some think Horizon Zero Dawn shouldve won over Zelda BOTW. Some thought Fire Emblem: Three Houses shouldve won instead of Sekiro. Its all subjective anyway. Every year there's a group of people who think game "A" unfairly won and game "B" shouldve been the winner. This year was no different and next will be the same.
I was hoping for a new IP as I've never been a huge fan of this series. But we'll see.
@Bathyj
Just curious, are you playing on an LG OLED? If so, I understand why. They do a fantastic job of upscaling to 4K. Of course it's not a true 4K image but still, 1080p upscaled on my LG looks really good!
"not to mention Sony doesn't officially support 1440p anyways. "
@Neonridr
The PS5 can absolutely run games at 1440p if devs choose to do so. I think you're getting that confused with the fact that the PS5 will not natively support a 1440p monitor. If you have a 1440p only monitor and have a PS5 hooked up to it, it will only downscale to 1080p. However if you have a 4K monitor or TV, a game can absolutely downscale to 1440p if the de...
@AnnaDea
Wow talk about reading too much into something. I'm well aware of the PS5 GPU capabilities. I simply said "it would've been nice..." I didn't say it SHOULD be 1440p and how dare they!"
Would've been nice if it could've hit 1440p@60fps+RT. However my TV does do a nice job of upscaling 1080p to 4K, so it's all good!
And until the PS5/XSX patches get released, it's still not a "next gen" game.
Let me guess, reviewed by Ryan McCaffery. LOL!
Performance + RT mode FTW!
