I'd be happy with the SMG, Brute Plasma Rifle, and Spiker all coming back.
I'm sure SWAT will return in an event week or something, then you can play pretend that Halo is COD.
Gears of War Ultimate Edition says hey
Microtransactions are strictly cosmetic and have zero impact to gameplay so that's why they aren't impacting scores. The 10 maps are fantastic, matchmaking takes literally only seconds, cross-progression with console and Steam, FOV sliders on console, custom games have a treasure trove of customization options. Allll forrr freeee.
$18 gets you 2200 credits, one example. I think $45 5500-5600. $9 = 1000 credits, and every tier higher gets a bonus amount. The 100 unlo...
What makes the Series S version even weirder is it was the smoothest 120fps from the first tech preview.
The resolution was sub-1080 but it felt *perfect*. Then TP2 brought it down to 60fps and this Beta introduced the 30fps Quality mode.
The Skewer is by far my favorite new weapon.
Rushing for it in Behemoth, taking out the enemy straight across before they pick theirs up. Spinning around to no-scope another enemy trying to get mine in the narrow ramp up. So good. In such tight sight lines, it's harder to miss. Those opening moments can set the tone of the match right away.
Bulldog is second to it. It's good in Live Fire along with the Heatwave, and I wish it was the permanent opt...
I just did, what was that even??
He's animated terribly, the way he's shaded looks out of place. Spider-Man got done dirty and that 1080p30fps publisher-provided video screams that.
Totally Alex's fault, when he critiques the heck out of Halo Infinite's technical oddities. Yeah that makes sense...
You guys aren't even pretending to pay any attention to DF.
Those little details make a world feel so much more lively.
This is suuch a nitpick but one thing that took me out of HZD's world was the lack of environmental awareness. Aloy remarking she's wet in the middle of a rain storm, but only because she stepped into a river. Torches staying lit and their flames unimpacted by a downpour.
If they can nail that, and have NPCs that behave in genuinely-convincing ways... oh my.
A computationally faster machine performs generally worse in performance mode with one exception while having fewer effects, gee I wonder why tech analysts would ever question that.
The Series X gets noticeably worse performance in combat yet has an extra graphical feature disabled in Framerate Mode. However, it performs noticeably better than PS5 when traversing. Yes, that is suspicious for both platforms and brings up questions about general and platform specific optimization.
Did you even watch the video or are you just fanning a conspiracy?
The current PS5 Framerate Mode is kinda that - targeting 4k60fps but with dynamic res. PS5 retains full effects but X|S remove motion blur.
From is certainly the best at this genre but they certainly make weird tech choices. Their history with bad frame pacing doesn't leave me with confidence they'll fix performance, at least not all the way.
Framerate Mode, just drop the res to 1440p. Demon's Souls was sublime like this.
Quality Mode, the heck are ya doing leaving framerate unlocked?
Game Informer has a separate video comparing 2020 to 2021, starting off at the same point but the player takes a different direction. Not only does the gameplay look better in it but they've also spruced up the cinematics with adjusted lighting and volumetrics.
I would agree - this year was such a quality year. Saying Forza Horizon 5 got snubbed would mean one of those included doesn't belong.
It Takes Two is incredibly unique and was critically and commercially lauded.
RE Village is my personal favorite of the franchise.
Metroid Dread was a surprise announcement, released shortly after, became the franchise's quickest seller (like Village was for RE) and is well-received.
I haven't played the other th...
I'm really enjoying SS HD a lot. I find handheld the best - the smaller sticks and direct connection makes it feel more responsive than on the Pro controller, and the motion controls don't do it for me.
Back on the Wii I stopped playing because it was so annoying my inability to bring my sword back fast enough to slash forward again quickly, but slow enough to not trigger the back slash. I want to say I was fighting Lizalfos, since that's when on Switch I gave u...
Yep, that "but" is a big one that requires its own seat.
A half-assed remaster of games from 15-20 years ago is totally a bigger deal than the 155 million copies of GTA V sold... really?
Tens of millions of people playing GTA Online weren't even born when these games were first released.
It really is disappointing the only Limited Edition is a console that can't be bought.
This article is absolutely incorrect.
You have to get five killing sprees five different times in the Fiesta playlist, not 5x in a single match. That would require a minimum of 25 kills. Unlocked it yesterday, did not once score more than 15-18 kills in my best match.
