Gordon Freeman is a good example of it. He's barely a character, we just know his name. What makes him interesting is his surroundings and how people interact with him not how he interacts with people. No matter how good Half life is I can't shake the feeling that my character is mute and I'm trapped inside his body.

For some reason the environments like the jungles and mountains look gorgeous, but up close things don't look as good.

Silent protagonist is my biggest pet peeve in video games. It's the stupidest thing ever. Just make the character actually mute as part of the story if you're going to prevent him from interacting with anyone else verbally.

At the end of the day it's not a MS game either. It's crossplay between Xbox and PC and not on Playstation. You can whine about one company and defend the other company but it really doesn't matter, for PS owners this is not a good thing.

From their website:

"The console, which includes two controllers and 6 games, is priced starting at $249 USD."

LOL wtf is this crap. 6 measly games that look like free mobile games from10 years ago, for $249! Unbelievable how they came up with this whole bundle and price tag, but props to them if they actually manage to convince morons to buy this.

Man this is great of course but I just wish Sony would have a clear policy on what they would or wouldn't release on PC. Would be nice to get hyped in advance if you own a PC and not a PS5, but I guess they don't want to drive sales away from PS5.

Agreed. Wtf is this article? Must MUTANT animals look like cuddly toys for 5 year olds...

I would argue that review SCORES are useless, not the actual reviews. The scores are just numbers that people quickly glance at and get almost no information from. The actual detail in reviews does give you the information you need to decide whether you would like that game or not. Unfortunately your own personal experience can only happen after you buy the game and spend time on it, which is impractical to do with every game. What is important is to look at reviews from multiple sources and ...

There are too many good reviews from various sources, can't all be paid for.

Looks like this is actually a polarizing game, some people just assume every high rating is paid for.

what's with this game gettings 4/5 or 4/10 lol, such an odd disparity in reviews.

"Yeah, a fun game being fun. Imagine that in this day and age. No political bollocks shoved down your throat. Just a game being a game. For FUN! Amazing, isn't it?"

Lol nothing you're saying makes sense. You keep repeating crap about politics when that has nothing to do with gameplay and 'fun'. I literally explained it in a long paragraph and you ignored every bit of it. Let me make it simple, if all you care about is FUN then great enjoy what you ...

"A fun game, and trying nothing more to be a fun game, when shit like TLoU is making ridiculous political statements with hacked to bits writing and characters and gender politics gets praised to the high nines like its something revolutionary, is a joke."

You are shoving your biased perspective and not being objective at all. A fun game trying nothing more than to be a fun game does not simply deserve a 10/10 just because. I read this so many times whenever someo...

hell yes! I hope in future they allow you to customize the startup animation. Would love to see that sci-fi OG xbox startup screen.

Hmm I don't think it has to be a "thing" really. If fans demand it then it's on the table. They already remastered Gears 1 so there's no reason to assume they couldn't remaster 2 and 3.

1860d ago 3 agree1 disagreeView comment

That isn't the same as a remaster, I wanna play them with new graphics like Gears UE was. Also 4k doesn't do much if they're not 60 fps, hard to go back to 30 fps on old games.

I hope they remaster Gears 2 and 3!!

To be fair it has only been a year and a half since Gears 5, and Gears tactics came out just last year. There are usually at least 3 year gaps between such games crossing generations, no one expected a Gears announcement this year. This would have been a blow if MS was still relying on a few big first party franchises, but clearly that's not the case anymore as there are half a dozen new studios working on first party titles.

Lol what? Why is the explanation of what he actually meant considered "excuses"? Not sure why you can't just take his word for it. He's clearly worried about his career, but because people are taking his words out of context and sensationalizing. Now that he's clarifying everything people want to call it an excuse. Just let it go people.

This game looks awesome and charming, love the art style.
