This is great. This is what makes this game so cool to me. You can do weird crap like this... or you don't have to. You can spend your whole life on one planet, or never land on a planet at all. You can go to the center of the galaxy, or just be a pirate and attack other ships. The game is a giant sandbox. Do what you want.
The problem is that Microsoft is making it so that all games will have to run on both versions of XB1. There will be no exclusives. So that game devs are drooling over making on a 6 tf Scorpio will also have to work on the 1.3 tf og XB1. To do that, you're either going to cripple your high end games from not allowing them to be all that they can be, or you're going to give og XB1 owners a truly poor experience.
The biggest factor that hinders both the PS4 Pro and the Xbox Scorpio (and the issue nobody is talking about) is that neither system will have exclusive games. All the games on these new, more powerful machines will also be running on the 2013 versions of the PS4 and XB1. So why bother arguing about, "Well the Scorpio is 6 teraflops and the PS4 Pro is only 4..." when they both have to be held back so they can accommodate games that play on the original consoles? It's like introd...
I completely agree with point #1. I get so lost in this game, in the best way possible. It's the ultimate escape. It's not worrying about politics, religion, bills, or the battles of life. For me, standing on the top of the mountain and watching the planet rise over the horizon is all I want.
Sigh.... this person demonstrates what is wrong with so many people who are playing No Man's Sky. The game isn't about the destination. It's sort of about the journey, but in reality it's about the experience. It's about seeing things and experiencing a sense of wonder that isn't in most games. If you're looking for shocking endings or fantastic set pieces, then look to other games. No Man's Sky is a classic science fiction game come to life. It's not Star ...
This is all BS. I've gone back to my old planets and everything is fine. I know, the game was having huge server issues on day 1 but this is getting ridiculous. One person says they had a problem and it starts becoming stated fact. I'm sorry this person's discoveries disappeared, but the data doesn't get wiped away. This is pure FUD and people just trying to piss on a fantastic game.
I'm sad to admit that the price hike probably is justified. When the service first launched for $50/year, it offered very little. Then the Instant Game Collection came around and suddenly $50 seemed like a steal. Then the PS Vita was added to the service at no extra cost. Then the PS4 was added to the service for no extra cost. So for those of us with all 3 platforms, we are now getting 6 free games each month for free, 72 games a year. Some are good. Some are not as good. But when you f...
Wait. Is Star Citizen a game yet or still a never ending promise? How many millions does that game need to get before it's anything concrete? And is it more than a space combat game?
Of course they've leveled off. This happens to most games that bust out of the gate this fast. It shot to 700,000 almost immediately. For a $60 game from a small studio that got thrashed by a bunch of reviews, that's incredible.
Again, still not sure why people are getting such joy over hating this game.
For me, it was the first full price game I've bought in quite some time. I think it's totally worth it. I've put around 30 hours into the game and can't get enough.
This is what I love about this game. The universe needs to be figured out. There's no hand holding. The community is learning and sharing things and that's awesome.
I'm baffled by the number of people, both in forums and in the press, who just don't comprehend what this game is. It's very niche. It isn't a crafted RPG. It's something completely different, which is why I think people are disappointed with it. They keep wanting to push this game into a previous category, but it just doesn't fit. Is it a survival game? An exploration game? A space combat game? The ultimate answer is no, but it does have that stuff in it.

Amazing review. It really delivered like nothing else. I'm saddened that Brad doesn't review more games as he has the best judgement of anyone in the business.
I'm glad it worked for you. Not for me. That makes it all lies. All of it. In fact, you're probably lying right now. CO OP day one? Please. I seriously doubt that. I tried it once on launch and it didn't work. Therefore everything is a lie. Sorry. That's the way the world works. All lies.
Microsoft said Halo 5 was a multiplayer game but when I tried to join a multiplayer match on launch day, it didn't work. I did not play a multiplayer match. Therefore, Microsoft lied, 343 lied. Halo 5 is a lie. Spencer lied. Everyone lied and Microsoft is the devil.
My Vita game collection is somewhere in the 200's. That's just for the Vita specific games. It doesn't include all the PSP, PS1, and minis that I have for it. There are just so many great games on this system. It's amazing.
For a console that is supposedly dead, it sure does have quite a few new games coming out this month.
I've been watching a lot of the "spoiler" streams on Twitch and I have to say that I'm more excited than ever for this game. It's exactly what I was hoping it would be and I can't wait to get my hands on it.
I'm trying to figure out which articles I've seen the most of: "Will too much hype destroy No Man's Sky" or "Who is responsible for creating Trump." It's almost a tie at the moment.
I know he's lovable at his press appearances, but based on the poor showing of SWWS output, Shu needs to focus more on how his studios are performing and less on PSVR. Delaying every freakin' game under your watch is embarrassing, and yet nobody questions his performance. Stop promising games on one date and delaying them for months to years later.
