Classic franchises thrive on their familiarity. While they can introduce new ideas, it's crucial that these innovations stay true to the essence of the franchise. Otherwise, it might be more appropriate to develop a new franchise or spinoff.
And that's where FFXVI sort of drops the ball for many. It doesn't offer much to old Final Fantasy fans. Honestly, I loved the game, but I feel it might have worked better as a spinoff, a new franchise, or even a reimaginati...
There's a mix of concerns. Firstly, people are a bit worried about the state of the franchise. While Final Fantasy XVI sold well, it didn't break any records or perform as strongly as other Final Fantasy titles. Additionally, with Final Fantasy VII being the middle point of the remake trilogy, its success is crucial for us to get the last part.
And, of course, there are those who like to point and laugh at the potential sales being lost due to its release as a PS5 e...
I could see this being a cool thing for Indies. But often you can do just that already if they have a patreon or something similar. For major developer companies that would be super silly, to start there is a huge chance that the devs that worked on that particular game has already been fired as the project is over. And obviously the money would not reach the developers that are still there, the suits would gobble it all up.
Also we all know that if this get implemented by...
Well, the article definitely has an edge to it, and the title can indeed be misconstrued. But the overall content is fine. It talks about the exploit that allows people to load PSP games into the system and then delves into the possibility of a Portal designed to run classic games natively.
The reality is that this is indeed possible. The current Portal is not a particularly powerful device, so any natively running capabilities would be limited. However, you can run PS1 gam...
Neon White in VR sounds like both a dream and a nightmare. It's a dream because it would look incredibly cool, but a nightmare because of how fast-paced and intense the game is. With its frenetic action, nausea could kick in pretty quickly.
Still, I hope it's true. The PS VR 2 is a solid piece of hardware, but it's lacking titles.
Discord, being US-based, is really scared of lawsuits, especially since their legal system tends to favor the bigger, more resourceful parties. So, they're just covering themselves in case Nintendo decides to take action.

I mean... the second result is the original 2016 trailer:

And here is the original Unreal Forum post: https://forums.unrealengine...
Hard to blame you. The original announcement is almost 10 years old. The article calls it a 'long-awaited PS5 game' but when it first appeared the PS4 was barely a couple of years old.
Drakengard made it onto the list mainly because Nier gave it a cult following later on. Honestly, it wouldn't have made the cut for any ACTION RPG list on its own. The characters are cool, the story is mess up in a good way, the lore is confusing and great, but the gameplay alone kill any chance of it being a recomended ACTION RPG.
Would love a remake of the series with updated gameplay. Drakengard 3 with Automata's hack and slash would be gold.
They did this before though. The Xbox One All Digital, or Xbox One SAD, was exactly this; they just removed the disc drive and closed the tray.
Yep, even though DD2 has its issues, it was one of the most anticipated games of the year. Releasing the port so close to its launch definitely did not do it any favors. That said, if it follows Zero Dawn life cycle, Sony should expect a long tail for this one.
I mean the core issue with AI is exactly what it's substituting. Generating visual art is a perfect example of this. Currently, if you want to use AI to generate anything short of a background, you are going to deal with numerous drawbacks. From anatomy issues in humans and animals to completely broken fonts for logos and visibly recycled styles.
But when it comes to writing, things are a bit messy. There are indeed extremely talented writers out there working on video ...
f you haven't already, consider getting 8-Bit Armies or the new 9-Bit Armies. They're made by some of the same folks from the older C&C, with very similar mechanics; it's just the aesthetics that are completely different.
Honestly, I'm still surprised that they were registered in the US. It seems to be one of the worst places to set up any sort of enterprise focused on emulators. The EU would likely provide more protections due to their much more pro-consumer legislation, while the BRICS would likely not care at all about Nintendo and their lawsuit.
Worse than that, it would probably only be Japan itself. That said, this news is very sad. It's not just Yuzu that suffered but also Cit...
It's probably not surprising to folks who keep tabs on the VR scene. It's kind of a specialized area, pricey to make stuff for, and being stuck to just one console makes it less appealing than the big-name headsets out there. But, the fact that they're looking into making it work with PCs adds some hope. Sure, it's unlikely it'll ever sell like the Quest 2 or Quest 3, but it does promise a new market and should keep the headset around longer.
The problem is that scratching the surface is taking way too long. By November, the PS5 will be four years old, using the previous gen as a ruler that means it's already halfway through its life until the PS6 comes out. So unless Sony plans to do what they did with the PS4 and bring over most PS6 exclusives to the PS5, they have just over 3 years to ensure the PS5 has a good lineup of exclusives and games.
And there's nothing on the horizon to suggest that's hap...
Probably the weakest generation so far. Cool features, good enough hardware, very few games. And a PS5 Pro will not help with that.
Played that on my phone, really good game. Don't know if I liked the voices in this version, but at the very least is a nice acessibility feature.
Sales metrics are pretty much meaningless for Xbox, and I think most people can see that. But in terms of reviews, Xbox actually did pretty decent last year. They had hits like Hi-Fi Rush (87), Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition (86), and Forza Motorsport (84) all making it into the top 20 best-reviewed games for their platform. PlayStation had Spider-man 2 with a higher score of 90, but that was the only first-party title to crack their top 20.
But let's not kid our...
For me, the primary concern with new software is how it's often exclusive to a new series. This not only frustrates me but also raises questions about the lifespan of the hardware. With GPUs no longer offering significant performance boosts, they rely heavily on software enhancements.
However, this reliance is contingent on developer support. When the new 5000 series hits shelves, it's likely that the 4000 series won't be compatible with Nvidia's new softwar...
