This game lost me when it handed me a camera and wanted me to wander around taking photos. Why? Stop it.
The arcade versions of those games were great. Ms. PacMan arcade is one of the best games ever. I'm talking about the home ports of those games on Atari 2600 were not very good at all.
Having grown up with Atari, I have no nostalgia for it or its games.
I feel like the latest Forza Horizon could work well on it, though. Given MS's strategy of getting their games on every system, I wouldn't be surprised if we see more "adult" games for you.
You guys are all wrong. The original rumble pack was in the Magic Wand "Personal Massager" release in 1968. Check-and-mate Nintendo and Sony both copied.
It would be a day 1 purchase for me, had it included Gradius 4 and 5. At $40, though, idk - it is kinda on the high side considering I've purchased all these games before on other systems and this is basically just an emulation bundle (minus the new Salamander game).
Microsoft's board needs to fire this CEO. He has been a disaster IMO. Windows and XBox brands have never been in a worse state. Steve Ballmer was a better CEO. Satya Nadella's only concerned with one thing: shoving Bing and Copilot down everyone's throats. They invest so much in redirecting us to stuff we don't want to use instead of making it something we want to use.
Mark Cerny said that "PS5 players will choose Performance mode 3 quarters of the time" which doesn't align with what this former-dev is saying. Basically, if a performance mode is present, 75% of players are using it.
DF addressed this in their last direct. Basically: don't get your hopes up on that. Given that Rockstar games lean hard into simulation, it will likely be the CPU that is the bottleneck and the PS5 Pro didn't get much of a CPU boost (about 5-10% at most).
True. At the same time, developers have to get everything play tested (or should be) prior to releasing to the public and ensure broad support with hopefully limited issues. Modders don't have those release requirements or support requirements.
Oh nice! I'll just use my Edge controller with my PC when this comes out. Only reason why I have a separate controller for my PC currently is because it is too much of a hassle re-pairing the controller every time I want to use it.
The boomerang in "A" rank is a friggen injustice done. If I'm in the back and get a boomerang I've basically lost the game. No coming back from such a terrible item drop. Boomerang should be "C" or "D". Come on...
You don't have to do all the side stuff. Just saying.
It is an online multiplayer game but it is not a GaaS because there isn't an integrated real-money shop, things like "battle passes", and FOMO mechanics.
Did they fix the periodic stutter that happens on VRR displays that has been an issue since the PS5 Pro launch?
I was able to get one by checking Best Buy, Target and Walmart websites daily. Best Buy had them in stock and was able to snag one last week. I think that if you want one you should be able to get one at retail but it takes some time and work.
I haven't tried any of the DLC but the main game is great and seriously underrated.
I was really enjoying this game until it opened up into a bunch of side quests, then I just kinda loss interest in it. It is a fun game and I just need to focus on the main story quests and knock it out. There is something about opening a map and seeing a bunch of "Todos" that makes my stomach turn these days. Games need to move on from that chore model.
It is hard to say much until we get sales numbers. It could be that Nintendo was just perfectly able to meet their projected demand and produce enough to also stock shelves. Selling out doesn't really mean much. Like, it would be super weird for Apple to sell out of a new iPhone anymore -- it would mean they messed up somewhere on their supply chain, it wouldn't mean the iPhone was super popular that year.
Don't need to buy an XBox next generation. As someone who buys all the consoles this is great news. Just need to get the PS6 since that is where most of the games will be. Thanks, Microsoft.
