Maybe the metropolitan one had epic VR ready rigs and 8 PS5s taped together to run the matrix or something

[quasi raptor]

@halcyon meteor https://youtu.be/yNnhBP_FiXM

holy shit dude

[halcyon meteor]

yeah, I was shocked too

[indigo spoke]

Woah

Suikoden remaster??

[halcyon meteor]

yes

[quasi raptor]

i'm really happy for you

you seem to have a deep connection to this series and its awesome that the remaster happened

[halcyon meteor]

game makes me mf cry at the end

[spark yarrow]

That's pretty sui-t

[spark yarrow]

Oh huh there's a Game Pass Goldeneye 007 too

apparently it'll be in 4K?

[prisma briar]

its free for rare replay owners

its widescreen, more importantly
i have no idea who cares about an N64 game in 4k

[spark yarrow]

N64k

Yeah I can't imagine that'd be very helpful?

[prisma briar]

4k is never "helpful" its just pretty if you sit close enough

though ive always been fairly pleased with 1080p but 4k is very nice, but i cant see how it'd do much to goldeneye

weird how xbox kept that quiet

[spark yarrow]

true!

I haven't really had any experience with 4k, but so far I'm fine with 1080p especially for the lower power/performance requirements

[quasi raptor]

Is golden eye coming to playstation 5

[prisma briar]

obviously not

[spark yarrow]

IDK, there's a gamepass thing and an NSO+EX thing

AFAIK

[prisma briar]

it isnt coming to playstation

[quasi raptor]

Wait a sec
That must be the golden eye remaster that was finished but got canceled due to licensing issues

[prisma briar]

its not much past widescreen and upres

[quasi raptor]

It was a game that was going to come out though

[spark yarrow]

Oh neat, but yeah this just seems to be the original game

[quasi raptor]

Oh

[prisma briar]

yeah its just upres'd and widescreen

[quasi raptor]

You know the perfect dark remaster on 360 and rare replay

they were set to do that for golden eye too

[prisma briar]

wasnt that the same thing

i didnt notice much different except the same thing with more modern controls

[prisma briar]

if its a 2008 project it was absolutely just going to be a "HD" version that flooded the store for years

[quasi raptor]

I just think it would have been cool if platforms used that version for this modern release

But alas

[prisma briar]

what else did you think it had except everything that its already bringing

[quasi raptor]

It just looks polished in the way that the perfect dark remaster does

You don't get that if just the original version is dropped

[prisma briar]

wasnt that just a higher resolution

[quasi raptor]

that too but a lot of the textures and models looked way better

[prisma briar]

i mean goldeneye comes free if you had rare replay so i expect it to be like it was on that collection

[quasi raptor]

parts were redone

[prisma briar]

i believed you

[quasi raptor]

It it also just runs incredibly better than the the n64 version

[prisma briar]

that does happen when you put it on a far more powerful machine by default

[quasi raptor]

The original was notorious for framerate issues

[prisma briar]

id be pretty worried if the 360 didnt run an n64 port well

[quasi raptor]

It was a really ambitious game which was essentially why

[quasi raptor]

yeah

[quasi raptor]

Since it's the only other game I can get do you recommend buying horizon 2 for 360

[prisma briar]

perhaps

all horizon games are good

maybe finish FH1 first

[quasi raptor]

I should buy some lesser class cars right
It seems I blew my load early with the upgrades on the supra

Most of the stuff on my map is B or C class

[prisma briar]

yeah in FH4 i always had my go to A class, S1, S2, B class etc.

like for A class i had an old alfa romeo racecar, for S1 i had a McLaren 12C, B class i had an impressa 1998

C class i cant remember but i just had whatever worked

tip for lower classes, focus on lightweight cars

lightness is king, and AWD is good for anything A class and up i believe

[quasi raptor]

I forgot horizon had like pretty much every car manufacturer ever

Jesus fucking Christ man

How the fuck you get ferrari AND lambo in the same game

mercedez bens too what the fuck

[prisma briar]

skeet mate this is not really that surprising

[quasi raptor]

yeah i figured

[prisma briar]

gran turismo and old forza motorsport games were doing this for years

[quasi raptor]

50 car manufacturers

exactly 50

I'm just saying it's impressive

[patent fox]

Heisenberg scary asf

Today on my Twitter feed

[kind basalt]

saw some people post some similar stuff on youtube

https://youtu.be/9GfPx1yAxQ0

[prisma briar]

What I posted is a thread, it might even be in there

[kind basalt]

didn't spot it in the thread

[prisma briar]

Saw a longer threat too but I couldn’t dig it back up

Positively shook

[kind basalt]

the youtube video claims the video was from about july 2021 (based on the video's original filename) iirc, so the game should be further along now

[lime gyro]

TIL daenerys is not immune to fire

https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/fantasy/house-dragon-debunks-targaryen-theory-fire/

[prisma briar]

I saw a thing chatting about 2019 lol, a game without any announcement of existence even and people are complaining about how it looks

You slug infested dog turd it ain’t finished

[patent fox]

yep

[quasi raptor]

https://youtu.be/-fkGIhUu50U

We're literally getting a game about dogs fighting a war against cats

[swift zodiac]

It gets worse

Walter's actions I mean

The show is fucking amazing

[lime gyro]

Just wait until season 2

He starts a downward slope there that he never, ever comes back from

Excuse me what

God no we don't need another merger

Please for the love of GOD

[quasi raptor]

WHAT

[lime gyro]

Boutta start Kena bridge of spirits

I'm so excited

It LOOKS beautiful

[quasi raptor]

oh yeah i heard about that game

looks fun

[lime gyro]

It's pretty fun

It's got that hints feature tho which I just get lazy and use

Instead of trying to figure out what to do

If anyone needed confirmation

[quasi raptor]

I haven't even really looked at the leaks to be honest

[prisma briar]

I posted some but it got ignored mostly

[quasi raptor]

but i still dont think its great that leaks happened at all

[prisma briar]

It’s quite a severe hack

[quasi raptor]

I can picture a lot of petty gamers out there saying stuff like "well its rockstar, fuck them" But I mean how would you feel if your life's work was stolen and shared without your permission

[dark charm]

It does suck for them

The leaks are just very early test footage, it doesn't spoil anything at least

[lime gyro]

That's surprising it's not gonna delay them in making gta6

I heard they were going to remake the source code that got leaked

[quasi raptor]

What if the remade code gets leaked too

at that rate i'll be a grandfather by the time gta 6 comes out

[dark charm]

It'll come out around the time elder scrolls 6 comes out

Like 2040

[cedar pasture]

I had seen them already

so I didn't say anything

[prisma briar]

Thank you for clarifying

[quasi raptor]

call of duty 69 will be out by then

[quasi raptor]

as an xbox exclusive

[dark charm]

Yeah fuck Microsoft for that one

Has Bethesda released any major games since they bought them?

Or have they said they'll move to Microsoft exclusive?

[cedar pasture]

no new games

[dark charm]

I'm sure it'll be on Windows so it doesn't really affect me but it still pisses me off if they cut out PlayStation gamers

[cedar pasture]

same

Activision was bought by MS too right? I feel like COD is going to remain on Sony consoles

the amount of money they make from skins is enough to justify it

[dark charm]

Plus they'd be pissing off enough people I'm not sure it'd be benificial to them. Having their own exclusives is one thing but buying a franchise and turning it exclusive would be so shitty

[cedar pasture]

I ultimately see Bliz/Activ being bought out as a good thing

[quasi raptor]

Starfield is Bethesda's newest original RPG and that was revealed to be an xbox exclusive

[cedar pasture]

because those companies were out of control

[dark charm]

Ope there ya go

[cedar pasture]

is Starfield as big as Fallout though?

[dark charm]

It's brand new, who's to say yet

[cedar pasture]

it could also be ported later

[quasi raptor]

I also think I heard at 1 point that The Outer Worlds 2 is xbox exclusive

[dark charm]

That doesn't surprise me

[cedar pasture]

that sucks

[dark charm]

I heard that too

[cedar pasture]

oh well

[dark charm]

Fuck exclusives, so shitty

PC starting to be the only place you can play more than half the games

[quasi raptor]

yeah, it doesn't bode well for fallout 5 or elder scrolls 6

[dark charm]

If starfield is exclusive and that launch makes them good money I have no doubt elder scrolls and fallout will go the same way

[prisma briar]

define big

[cedar pasture]

PS is like "look at our new PC ports! Last of Us Pt 1 will not be coming to PC!"

[cedar pasture]

hugely

[prisma briar]

i think sony liked timed console exclusive

[dark charm]

I'll take it tbh

[prisma briar]

big in franchise or big in size of the map

[cedar pasture]

uber

franchise

[dark charm]

I'm happy to see PS start moving more games to PC

[prisma briar]

its a brand new IP so, it has nothing at the moment

[cedar pasture]

what

Oh

I was thinking of Starcraft LOL

[prisma briar]

blizzard make starcraft

[cedar pasture]

I've never played any Blizzard game

that I can think of

[prisma briar]

starfield is as big of an RPG as fallout is though, bethesda being exclusive is all but confirmed once their contractual obligations expire

[quasi raptor]

I'm pretty sure Starfield did have a lot of hype though

[dark charm]

My parents bought me world of warcraft not realizing it required a membership they weren't willing to pay for lol

So I had to play on shitty illegal servers

I was like 12 or 13

[prisma briar]

did you ever play overwatch

[cedar pasture]

no

[prisma briar]

nothing else i could suggest you'd have played, since its all WoW and the like

which i never touched

[cedar pasture]

Diablo

I've never played those games either

[prisma briar]

deathloop, a PS exclusive LOL
bethesda games will be xbox exclusive, there's little reason for their purchase otherwise

[cedar pasture]

Deathloop is an Arkane Studios game iirc

they made Dishonored

[prisma briar]

bethesda published though

[cedar pasture]

yea

[prisma briar]

that's all they've done since

[cedar pasture]

Arkane needs to make Dishonored 3

Leave Corvo and Emily behind

make some new characters

[quasi raptor]

For some reason I read that is deadpool 3

For real though I would love another deadpool game

[lime gyro]

Well it doesn't matter bc it's not being delayed anyways apparently

[quasi raptor]

yeah but if they restart a certain aspect of the game one could assume the entire development process would take at least a bit longer

[lime gyro]

They said it's not going to take any longer

[quasi raptor]

oh

[lime gyro]

So I'd assume they're just not redoing that

[quasi raptor]

then whoops

gotcha lol

[lime gyro]

Lmao

Well it doesn't look finished anyways

[quasi raptor]

of course lmao

[lime gyro]

It looks like it's still in development tbh

[quasi raptor]

early development

[lime gyro]

Which,it is

[quasi raptor]

I think like a year ago around the time that the trilogy hd was announced someone from rockstar said the earliest it could release is 2024

[lime gyro]

I really doubt it would be 2024

This generation of consoles, but that's all I'd assume

[quasi raptor]

Yeah there's a big asterick next to 2024

thats why i said "earliest"
it likely wouldnt be ready by then but it could

[lime gyro]

Yea but as likely as global warming being solved by 2024 too

Very very unlikely

[quasi raptor]

yeah true

[cedar pasture]

Yo GTA VI already has a nude mod

Comes built in to the game

There's a screenshot of Lucia's bare naked dump truck supposedly from the leak gameplay

[quasi raptor]

the leak revealed the main character's name?

[prisma briar]

Yes, both

[quasi raptor]

absolutely wild

apparently it confirmed that its set in ||vice city|| too

[prisma briar]

Yep

[cedar pasture]

Yes it says on the police cruisers and that was leaked a while ago

[prisma briar]

Platinum’d NFS Heat

[spark yarrow]

ayyy

[prisma briar]

only 2 online trophies, and accumulated all of the NFS Heat reddit to get one other trophy

[quasi raptor]

i posted this for aodhan in general yesterday but since i took the photo, i might as well post it here
my n64 collectiom

excluding:
-Goldeneye 007
-Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire
-Mickey's Speedway USA

i misplaced my copies of those games

[outer kiln]

Can’t wait to play goldeneye on switch

[humble hedge]

anyone seen nbc hannibal

obsessed w it rn

[compact sand]

Indeed

[lime gyro]

It's rly dumb how the first 3 ratchet and clank games aren't available on ps4 or 5

[spark yarrow]

You'd think after Rift Apart was well received, porting either the PS2 originals or the PS3 trilogy collection would be a thing

[quasi raptor]

Meanwhile PS3 has a ratchet trilogy remaster

[spark yarrow]

Yeah that's the PS3 one I mentioned

I should get that some time... maybe

[quasi raptor]

fuck i didnt notice

But yeah I just think it's pretty weird

[quasi raptor]

There was a Jak and Daxter PS3 remaster and I think that was put on PS4

At least I know there is a bundle of the first 3 games and the racing spinoff game on PS4

[spark yarrow]

I suspect there's also a sly cooper trilogy on PS3

but I've never played one (haven't played Jak and Daxter either)

[quasi raptor]

yeah there is

[outer kiln]

There is

[prisma briar]

I really wanna play rift apart, I loved the 2016 game - maybe I should play the earlier entries sometime

[quasi raptor]

Theres this indie game called midnight fight express that looks really fucking cool

It looks like a mix between sifu and hotline miami

and i havent played sifu but i've played hotline miami

might be worth it

[outer kiln]

Yes support the starving indie devs

And buy Celeste

[quasi raptor]

AJ, i appreciate the sentiment
i rave about celeste too
its one of my favorite indies ever
but it was one of the most successful ones ever
support all indie devs

and also celeste is four years old now

You need to buy Rollerdrome

[outer kiln]

yes all the indie devs are starving

must buy games

[quasi raptor]

now that i think about it, we're getting alot that interests me in october
-Gotham Knights on PS5
-Black Adam
-Tales of the Jedi
-more Andor episodes
-the rest of She-Hulk's episodes

[spark yarrow]

Hate this

clickbait >:(

[quasi raptor]

Like I don't even have to read that to know it's click bait

I don't even feel like nintendo has an idea of what their next console is

Also 2017 wasn't that long ago

[outer kiln]

r/savedyouaclick

[charred ermine]

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom wil be the last Nintendo Switch game

Article: Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom will be the last Nintendo Switch game to be titled Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

[prisma briar]

I'm sure they absolutely do, they will know a timeframe for release and likely be doing a lot internally in development probably for a while

that being said i had 2024 in my head as the last year lol

[lime gyro]

I seriously doubt that Nintendo's next console will be as successful as the switch

[quasi raptor]

That's a fair assessment honestly

Cause that's basically like

exactly what happened with the wii to wii u/3ds

[lime gyro]

Not even that, the switch was a landslide success

But you're right, Nintendo has a history of having a smash success console then a miss

N64 to gamecube, then Wii to Wii U, switch to... whatever is next

All great consoles but it follows a pattern

[quasi raptor]

N64 wasnt a huge success but still your kinda right

it was crushed by the PS1

[lime gyro]

Oh yea you're right

It underperformed

I forgot that it didn't do well cos all anyone says about it is how good it is

[quasi raptor]

Sony were 2 years ahead of them
and nintendo took like way too long to get the n64 out

some forget the fact that PS1 came out in 1994

and nintendo struggled to catch up

[quasi raptor]

wii to wii u is the only big example of this idea actually

the nes and snes were both big successes too

[lime gyro]

Yea my analogy was moot

[quasi raptor]

its all good

I correct you but I try not to sound like a dick while doing it

[lime gyro]

My point is the next console will probably underperform

[quasi raptor]

Yeah

[lime gyro]

Fair enough

I didn't really need the correction cos I already realised my analogy was pointless tho

[quasi raptor]

lol

[prisma briar]

I don’t think it’ll do as well but the hybrid Nintendo console will still do well if they continue it

[quasi raptor]

I think the most we can say here is that the switch is comparable to the wii in terms of success

and in both cases nearly everyone i knew had one

[prisma briar]

Well it’s sold more already, and is going stronger than the Wii at this stage of its life

[quasi raptor]

I think if they just make a more powerful switch people will buy it

[prisma briar]

I can’t see the switch being much else

[quasi raptor]

and I think if they try to be super weird again like the Wii U they will lose people

[prisma briar]

Well the Wii U was trying to get to the switch, it just was too awkward

[quasi raptor]

True

You know I just thought of something

It's just the one thing that always bothered me about the switch

Not necessarily something about the console itself but what it represents

It's just basically the fact that it pretty much killed strictly handheld consoles entirely

i miss that era now

there used to be really unique types of games on the ds line of systems that you couldnt quite replicate on consoles

and its precisely why the switch barely even gets ds or 3ds ports

[spark yarrow]

Probably also something to do with big developers like Square going to the PS1 because discs vs cartridges at that point in the technological progress of gaming

I guess handheld stuff's been replaced by phones too, which kinda sucks because no physical controls for one

also the horrid state of the mobile gaming scene being infinite clones of whatever's popular stuffed to the brim with ads

[prisma briar]

Handheld stuff is being phased out simply because you could make a fairly home console power device the size of a 3DS now, so the graphical power is far larger than it once was

Phones can run enormous games now, the steam deck is the power of old gen consoles, and maybe better in some cases and fits in your hand, albeit quite large for a handheld

Point is there’s less need for dedicate handhelds as they would hold the power of the switch to the point where people would want to use it as a home console anyway, and you have to go very niche to get into the tiny new neat handhelds that exist

[quasi raptor]

That's fair

I just think it was a cool era

And its sad to me that nothing like that will ever happen again

[prisma briar]

It does happen still, it’s just not Nintendo making it

[quasi raptor]

would be cool if we got another Sony handheld but i have a feeling they probably find it less lucrative now after the switch

[prisma briar]

It’s just not viable for them really

[quasi raptor]

Yeah

[prisma briar]

As “cool” as it may seem Sony has no idea how to handle a handheld even if it’s a good one

[quasi raptor]

yeah i think you're right

with the vita they were kinda just like
"uhhhhhhh, nevermind, bye" and threw it in the bin

[prisma briar]

I really like both portable PS devices but there is barely anything I wanna play on it

[quasi raptor]

in terms of games library i think the PSP was a bigger success

its hard to actually think of much that the vita had outside of the Uncharted spinoff and the variety of impressive console ports

[lime gyro]

Gravity rush for one

It had a variety of good console ports and some that were not so good

It had a super good killzone game

Oh it had a mk9 port

Sly cooper game too

[quasi raptor]

yeah i own the killzone game too but i dont feel its as well remembered as the uncharted game

[cedar pasture]

@fair plover are you getting MW2

[fair plover]

probably not

[cedar pasture]

damn

[lime gyro]

Doesn't mean it's not as good

[swift zodiac]

https://www.engadget.com/hbo-full-the-last-of-us-trailer-playstation-naughty-dog-163002901.html

@quasi raptor

YES

I HAVE NEVER PLAYED THE GAME BUT AT LEAST ITS NOT CANCELLED

[quasi raptor]

What

i didnt think this show was gonna be cancelled

[swift zodiac]

I figured anything was possible

[quasi raptor]

oh wait you mean Zaslav

ok

[swift zodiac]

Especially with lack of updates

[swift zodiac]

Yeah

[quasi raptor]

I have beaten that game.

[swift zodiac]

But we got a trailer so it's presumably safe

[quasi raptor]

its a direct adaptation of the original

[swift zodiac]

I'm gonna play The Last Of Us Part I on PS5

[quasi raptor]

that clicker looks impressively accurate

[quasi raptor]

the original has aged perfectly and costs less

[swift zodiac]

True but it would be a Christmas gift and cost me nothing

Or I could shell out $10 for the disc and get a different $70 Christmas game

Idk yet

I just want the best way to play that game

[quasi raptor]

but i guess yeah the PS5 one is good for anyone who hasnt already played it

[swift zodiac]

Alright

I'll weigh my options

Either way I'm gonna play it and love it

What did you think of Part II

[quasi raptor]

as someone who already has the Remaster from 2014 and has fully beaten it, i'm hoping to just wait until the remake drops in price

both versions look GREAT

[swift zodiac]

It may drop in price by the time Christmas rolls around

Plus sales

[quasi raptor]

It's been a while since I've beateb it but I think my immediate reaction after finally finishing the 30 hour campaign was "oof"
just like
a feeling of
uhhhhhh
that was alot

[prisma briar]

Play the mega remake if you want, though it wasn’t a substantial enough game for me to really spend lots of money on

[quasi raptor]

Same

[swift zodiac]

Was it good?

[prisma briar]

Like I am not one to spend £60 on a 15 hour or less game, but I’m not one to do that

[quasi raptor]

Um, in parts

It tries to tackle themes of like cycles of violence or something like that and revenge
but like doesnt really do that in a super compelling way

[prisma briar]

Lots of people loved the game and lots of people didn’t, there’s only one way to find out which one of those is you

[dark charm]

I didn't finish part 2

When it comes to PC I might try again

I love the first

The 2nd wasn't bad, but it dragged on

[quasi raptor]

I didn't like, hate the game
but i kinda think naughty dog should have spent as much time crafting their narrative as they did all the super detailed environments
i respect the hell out of the talented artists and designers there but honestly some story elements feel undercooked to me

[dark charm]

I was getting bored of walking through empty area after empty area

Like not empty, but just not enough to do

I got bored

[swift zodiac]

I heard critics loved it but audiences felt it was meh

I'll see for myself ofc

[prisma briar]

Nathan I feel like you’d struggle to finish the greatest game ever made just because you’re that kinda guy

[dark charm]

What game is the greatest game ever made lol

[prisma briar]

Idk it’s not relevant

[dark charm]

I do struggle to finish games sometimes but I did beat cyberpunk recently

[prisma briar]

Didn’t you get that at launch

[dark charm]

I think my attention span is just really short tbh

[dark charm]

I did but it was kind of a mess, I came back to it a couple months ago

[quasi raptor]

haha nathen cant finish tony hawk

lol jk

[prisma briar]

Skeet really used metacritic for the question, and answer my joke with #2 on the list

[quasi raptor]

Ocarina of time is overly talked about

I was trying to be different

[dark charm]

I'm actually quite excited for the cyberpunk dlc

[prisma briar]

When was the last time Ocarina of time was mentioned here lol

[quasi raptor]

Also I was in no way trying to imply that I believe metacritics assessments
I just wanted to mock them

whats the "best ever" is entirely up to your personal tastes and beliefs

[swift zodiac]

Ain't no way Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 is the second best game ever made 💀

[prisma briar]

It’s metascore

[quasi raptor]

Everyone has their own best game ever made and that's OK

[swift zodiac]

Ye

[dark charm]

That title clearly goes to goat simulator

[quasi raptor]

of course

[prisma briar]

The best game ever made is sonic unleashed

[quasi raptor]

the best game ever made is bob the builder for PS1

[prisma briar]

I actually do concoct my list of my favourite or personal “best games ever made” thing but it’s so heavily dependant for genre I would struggle to recite it in order

[swift zodiac]

The best game ever made is Lego Jurassic World

[prisma briar]

I have actually played that game

[quasi raptor]

i'll be back in 20 minutes

[swift zodiac]

Any good?

[prisma briar]

Absolutely not

[swift zodiac]

Lol

[prisma briar]

It’s like as basic Lego game as it gets and it’s not even about good films

We need more Lego games, there’s so many franchises I want to have shitty box punching collectathons

[dark charm]

Lego 50 Shades of Grey

[quasi raptor]

For a second I was confused but then I realized yeah pretty much only the original Jurassic park and the original Jurassic World were super well received

[quasi raptor]

Are you sure about that

[prisma briar]

Yes

[quasi raptor]

There's like so fucking many I can think of off the top of my head right now

[prisma briar]

And not enough about stuff I want

[quasi raptor]

And Jurassic park isn't even the only mediocre franchise to get a lego game
its crazy

[prisma briar]

We had like 96 Lego superhero games but what if we had a Lego SpongeBob game

[quasi raptor]

Pirates of the carribean

[prisma briar]

I did like most of those films but the game was stuck on old consoles

[quasi raptor]

Yeah that's kind of true

i mean hey it's on 3ds too

Oh yeah The Hobbit movies got a game too

[prisma briar]

There’s a lotta franchises I’d find very fun lego games but instead we got a lot of guff

What if we got a Lego cars game or some shit

Lots of untapped potential

[quasi raptor]

oh shit yeah man there haven't really been a lot of lego racing games

[prisma briar]

Lego SpongeBob, Lego racers 3, Lego Simpsons perhaps? There was a lot of Lego sets for stuff that never got games

[quasi raptor]

aside from this

[prisma briar]

Same idea but why hasn’t nerf made a good FPS yet
Nerf legends was ass but they’re a great brand for a really unique shooter

[swift zodiac]

Nerf made a VR game

[prisma briar]

But where is the hyper modular colourful FPS about dart flinging

A lot of companies have really untapped potential

[quasi raptor]

lego minecraft

[prisma briar]

Okay you say that but it could work

[quasi raptor]

ive seen that shit at fuckin target before

[prisma briar]

Yeah it’s a good idea for a toy

Blocky game meets block company

[swift zodiac]

Yk

I'd buy it

[quasi raptor]

I just thought it was so hilariously ironic because im assuming lego probably inspired the creation of minecraft

[prisma briar]

I mean who knows really

[quasi raptor]

Lego tax evasion

[spark yarrow]

I think I'd pick THPS3 over THPS2 personally

[quasi raptor]

People just say it's the best one because it pioneered the skateboarding game genre
And set the stage for everything after it

But they ignore the fact that most of the games after after it perfected what thps2 started

[spark yarrow]

But it could be said that the later games blurred its vision with stuff like the open levels of THPS4, the story modes of THUG and later, and the extra game mechanics like walking, Nail the Trick, and all that

I do love me some THAW though

I should compile a personal best of soundtrack playlist

[quasi raptor]

I'm just saying I feel it's unrealistic to say that the second ever tony hawks game is the best

[spark yarrow]

Perhaps, though I wouldn't say an early peak (especially when they were quickly forced into the yearly release model) is incredibly unlikely

but also I wouldn't even say THPS2's the best so what am I on about

I guess I'd compare it to SSX, and the Tricky vs 3 wars

[lime gyro]

Was it playable at launch

It looks like a mess NOW after two years of patches

[quasi raptor]

Played really well when I started it on PS5

[lime gyro]

I've seen some footage of glitches that render the game unplayable now

It's definitely way better after the last few years but it's still buggy and glitchy from what I've seen

In ways you just wouldn't expect triple A games to be

[dark charm]

There are still bugs but it's not nearly as bad now

I had one time I had to reload and replay a mission

But other than that and a couple visual things it wasnt bad

It's a really fun game

The side missions are really fleshed out

It's a shame they were pushed to release it unfinished

Publishers suck, the devs knew it wasn't ready

[quasi raptor]

crunch culture sucks

[lime gyro]

Yea that's what I figured

[prisma briar]

went to a charity shop, bought a video game

Look at all the stuff that came with it

i got it for £3, vs CeX price

[quasi raptor]

wii party sex AYYYYYYY

[prisma briar]

I can’t complain paying 1/6 of the price

[quasi raptor]

ah yes old club nintendo stuff you cant use anymore

[prisma briar]

Pretty neat it came with it though, you’re allowed to at least be slightly impressed or pleased with my purchase

[quasi raptor]

i am i just still think its sad that club nintendo is dead

[prisma briar]

Alright, well I think my find in a charity shop was cool

[prisma briar]

If you are you are yet to express it

It’s not often you find anything of note in charity shops except FIFA games

There was quite a few there in this one

We had a few copies of Far Cry, Project Gotham Racing 4, Assassins Creed 2, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3, Rocket League, Minecraft for PS4, Street Fighter 5.. all sorts of guff that people just gave away

[quasi raptor]

i heard its good, i heard about it alot as a kid but its like pretty much the only "wii series" game i havent played

[swift zodiac]

https://www.gamesradar.com/pokemon-scarlet-wiglett-diglett/

Wiglett

[quasi raptor]

that is a really solid lineup honestly

also when you say charity shop, is that similar to Goodwill?

[prisma briar]

idk what goodwill is but its a shop of stuff people give away and is then sold for charity

[swift zodiac]

Yeah that's basically what Goodwill is

[lime gyro]

It's a charity shop

[cedar pasture]

Now I want the games

[quasi raptor]

i like how you know what goodwill is but joe doesnt

lol

[swift zodiac]

Yeah I'm gonna get it just for Wiglett

[quasi raptor]

Bruh

[spark yarrow]

Not the first smurfs kart racer!

[quasi raptor]

damn thats crazy

tho i should say
who was clammering for another one of those?

its the video game equivalent of "damn bro thats cool and all but did i ask"

[spark yarrow]

IDK if people were really asking specifically for another smurfs kart racer, but another kart racer suitable for younger kids at a cheaper price than Mario Kart (most likely) seems like it could have a market

[quasi raptor]

Yeah I was referring to the concept of it specifically being based on smurfs lol

[spark yarrow]

Smurfs is still a very large property, those films weren't too long ago (were they? I might be old)

I could see an amount of people interested in a smurfs game

then again even unsuccessful things often get game tie-ins

IDK, wouldn't mind another decent kart racer about

[swift zodiac]

Last one was in 2017 💀

First one was in 2011

[spark yarrow]

Huh, didn't realise there was that much of a gap but also ouc

[swift zodiac]

Well the second one came out in 2013

[spark yarrow]

Huh, didn't realise there were more than just the two

[prisma briar]

bought a ps5 today

came with fifa 23
could always use spare toilet paper

[quasi raptor]

that reminds me of a meme i saw once, where it was a picture of the book twilight new moon on top of their toilet, and it said "spare toilet paper" on it
this maybe have been during the beginning of the covid era

[kind basalt]

https://www.theverge.com/2022/9/29/23378713/google-stadia-shutting-down-game-streaming-january-2023

well this didn't last long

[quasi raptor]

lmao

the very fact that happened made me laugh

definitely lasted longer than the Ouya tho

[swift zodiac]

We don't have the technology to really make this work yet

[prisma briar]

Well, hyper fast internet does exist, it’s just somehow it still didn’t work for everyone

[quasi raptor]

Yeah we can at least praise Google for taking a chance and failing

Someone will see that and pick up where they left off at some point

[prisma briar]

Oh because the past 10 years of streaming services had been going so well

[quasi raptor]

PS now was pretty buggy

[prisma briar]

They’re all pretty shit

PS Now is one of the better ones somehow

But streaming games has been a thing for over a decade now, Google weren’t exactly innovators

Plus their horrid history of just killing stuff off fairly suddenly doesn’t make them too reliable for a risky gaming platform

[quasi raptor]

Does anyone in this server even have ps plus premium?

[prisma briar]

Idk I don’t think so

[quasi raptor]

I havent been paying attention to which older titles they've added

[prisma briar]

I know some with PS Extra but I don’t see any real value in premium

PS Extra seems a decent Game Pass competitor at least

Doesn’t appeal too much to me as a physical game fan but its pretty substantial for PS4/5 games

[quasi raptor]

I can see why people are only buying PS extra to be honest

Game pass has a bunch of Xbox 360 games just ready to play

No one gives a fuck about PS3 when it's streaming

Granted I know that isn't entirely Sony's fault but it still sucks

[prisma briar]

That is entirely Sonys fault

They made the PS3

[quasi raptor]

Yes

I was attempting to cut them some slack but you're right

[prisma briar]

Let’s not forget it’s existence is pure arrogance for the PS2s success

[quasi raptor]

that is also true

their cocks were so huge they didnt give a fuck

[prisma briar]

It’s such a shame because the PS3/360 era was so good, and Microsoft have a firm dick in their ass because they will always have that era playable and Sony doesn’t

[quasi raptor]

Yeah that's one of the things i will admit they have over Sony

Maybe one of the only things

[prisma briar]

That is their saving grace right now

It’s a huge deal, and it’s really powerful for Microsoft

[quasi raptor]

Until they start to play the cheap route and start making Bethesda games exclusive

[prisma briar]

I don’t care for the Xbox in any other way except it’s an insane retro machine

They will have Bethesda exclusive games so their dick will be massive soon

But spiderman will satisfy me I suppose

[quasi raptor]

The elder scrolls part of it isn't gonna bother me too much at least right now because I haven't gotten into skyrim very much but

[prisma briar]

Yeah I mean I’m more upset about not getting another DOOM game

[quasi raptor]

But stuff like machine games with Indiana Jones
That scares the piss out of me

[prisma briar]

Could be time for a cheap series S if you’d like

I like that little thing

[quasi raptor]

Not yet

Maybe at some point

The way I look at it if I bought one of the next gen consoles I have to stick with that for a while

I can't just jump into the other one

[prisma briar]

I know not yet but maybe when that comes out

[quasi raptor]

Yeah perhaps

[prisma briar]

You got time mate it’s just an idea

[quasi raptor]

Then again most Lucas film games have been multi platform

[prisma briar]

Cheap and quite impressive as a little box

[quasi raptor]

At least the Star Wars stuff I know is safe

[quasi raptor]

I would probably end up getting a series X because of my massive 360 collection

[prisma briar]

True

Would look cool, there might be a few games to play on that thing

You can play unleashed at 60 :)

[quasi raptor]

If I had 500 dicks that wouldn't even be as big as my 360 collection

[prisma briar]

If I had half my dick that would be bigger than your collection

[quasi raptor]

Holy shit

Fucking roasted

[prisma briar]

Bosh

[quasi raptor]

I can go without the backwards compatibility because I already like the way 360 games look on original hardware
but most likely the catalyst for getting one will be an exclusive i actually care about

[prisma briar]

I know you’re not the kinda guy to care but the transformation some of these games have is bonkers

Sonic unleashed being occasionally 30 usually 20fps being boosted to 60 locked was enough to make me squeal

[quasi raptor]

I didn't realize that
I do think it's interesting I'm just saying I'm not massively fussed about missing out

At least for now

[prisma briar]

Is fussed an American term too or is that just from me

It sounds british

[quasi raptor]

No I've used that in this context before

I'm fairly certain it's not just a British thing

[prisma briar]

Seems like one, oh well

Thought for a moment I’d had an influence on you lol

[quasi raptor]

I don't think I got it from you if that's what you're wondering

[prisma briar]

Dammit

Lol

[quasi raptor]

Humorous

[prisma briar]

I have commenced the spiffing ha ha

[quasi raptor]

I have so many 360 games I need a bigger shelf

[prisma briar]

I actually have filled my shelf too

Gonna need to move some elsewhere

[quasi raptor]

thats the shelf

But I have like way more than that now

[prisma briar]

Mine is legit full

[quasi raptor]

i also have star was kinect lol

[quasi raptor]

also i love your PAL super nintendo

[supple thunder]

Big router arrival

[prisma briar]

Wifi is great

[supple thunder]

Native DS5 haptics for Steam when

[spark yarrow]

That'd be fun

Kinda wanna replace my XBONE controller with a DualSense, not a fan of the former's design for stuff like the triggers and button shapes

and gyro aiming and touchpad seems fun

[spark yarrow]

seto kaiba!

[quasi raptor]

Have there been many yugioh video games that weren't card games?

[spark yarrow]

tbh I don't really know of any

[quasi raptor]

Yeah there weren't nearly as many as pokemon had

Or even other mainstream anime like naruto

[spark yarrow]

I know there were a bunch of yugioh video games, just that they're all card games in my head

can't really think of a naruto game that wasn't a fighter (or maybe one or two turn-based RPGs?)

[quasi raptor]

Yeah I can imagine traditional JRPG being a good format for that

[spark yarrow]

Kinda like how there are the DBZ ones on the GBA

[quasi raptor]

I just remember the series being a pretty unique concept and making the video games just card games is a really boring way to represent it

[spark yarrow]

easier though!

Actually, have you seen Phantom Dust?

Pretty much a card game brought to life as an arena fighter

[quasi raptor]

the original xbox game that had a cancelled remake?

[spark yarrow]

the remake's free on the microsoft store!

IIRC the american release of the original was originally cancelled

but it got out anyway or something?

I haven't watched the video in a bit but I downloaded the remaster and forgot to play it

[quasi raptor]

I think you mean the re-release of the original xbox version

[quasi raptor]

when you said this

[spark yarrow]

Oh yeah, I do!

TBH I didn't even know there was a cancelled remake!

[quasi raptor]

I know it because as you probably know I watch every video from Scott the woz

And in his canceled games video he mentioned that remake

[spark yarrow]

Ohhhh nice!

I have yet to get into scott

also I booted up the remaster but I think it wants me to have a controller

...and my one microUSB cable that isn't like 10cm long died T_T

[prisma briar]

Ps5 is good

I’m happy

:)

[spark yarrow]

yay!!

[prisma briar]

Controller is ultra pog and I am loving Astros playroom

[quasi raptor]

i'm happy that you're happy

[prisma briar]

That’s about as good as it’ll get from you so I’m pleased with that

[quasi raptor]

I want to sound supportive without sounding awkward but thats hard for me i guess?

i am extremely happy for you

[prisma briar]

My favourite kind of support is inept screaming like I have been doing for the past 4 hours

[quasi raptor]

Amazing

[prisma briar]

Then finding out I can’t have the Ghost of Tsushima ps5 upgrade because I don’t have the game

[quasi raptor]

It's a shame there aren't a lot of supported games for it right now but the adaptive triggers are fucking incredible

[prisma briar]

I’m going through Astros playroom and they’re so cool

[quasi raptor]

yeah the claw machine thing shocked the hell out of me

[prisma briar]

Yes absolutely that

Blimey

I’m really glad they still use the touch pad too

And GYRO WEEEEEE

[quasi raptor]

when the triggers got so weighty all of a sudden
THIS IS THE FUCKING FUTURE AAAAAAAAA

It is absolutely a beautiful moment when you feel the adaptive triggers for the first time

[prisma briar]

The opening of that game with the controller demo is great

[quasi raptor]

astros playroom is the best "tech demo" type of game ive ever experienced

[prisma briar]

It’s genuinely a good game without even being one

Like it’s really fun

[quasi raptor]

The fact that it comes with the console is fucking brilliant
I don't think nintendo would do something like that, at least nowadays

[prisma briar]

imagine a 5 hour mario platformer demonstrating the switch 2

I’m very impressed with the scope of Astros Playroom

[quasi raptor]

Yeah like it's not just a Tech demo right

It's got like full blown platformer levels

[prisma briar]

It’s genuinely a good 3D platformer

It’s a full game, worth playing

I’d have paid money for this if I didn’t drop £500 on a console

[quasi raptor]

Maybe Sony did that to compensate for the price tag?

[prisma briar]

I just think it’s a rare bit of a nice Sony gesture

[quasi raptor]

yeah or that

Either way they are fucking awesome for doing it

[prisma briar]

Who knows, I don’t have a true answer other than guessing

But it’s genuinely my only PS5 game for a little while and I love it

I’ll be playing the ps4 version of ghost of Tsushima but since it’s on PS5 it hits 60FPS all the time

Which is nice

[quasi raptor]

thank god for gamestop and their ridiculous bundles

i hope you're able to get more games soon

[prisma briar]

Lol, I have PS5 games on the way just not yet

[quasi raptor]

oh lol

I've only played Elden ring like once
That's the funny thing

[prisma briar]

Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is coming from a friend soon, and I’m selling FIFA 23 for game money

I’ll get maybe spiderman miles morales or something like that

[quasi raptor]

Maybe soulsbourne games just aren't for me

[prisma briar]

I doubt it

I did get bloodborne with the package

[quasi raptor]

Are you going to be one of those people that just says "get good dude"

[quasi raptor]

I really enjoyed it as a first PS5 game

[prisma briar]

I will get it soon, I’m excited to play it

Plus, sonic frontiers gets to be pre ordered on PS5

[quasi raptor]

Also for me knowing a decent amount of miles comic book history really paid off while playing the story

[quasi raptor]

hell yeah we can both play it on the best version lol

[prisma briar]

Poggeroo

[quasi raptor]

You don't have to be mad anymore about me saying it probably won't run great on switch

Or something like that

[prisma briar]

I still think it will run decent

720/30 for switch is commendable

[quasi raptor]

well yeah decent and great are pretty different words

So I can at agree with decent

[prisma briar]

Well, great for the switch - not great compared to PS5s and PCs and the like

So, comparatively good if that helps

I’ll probably buy it on switch later down the line, I’d love to try it on the go afterwards

[quasi raptor]

yeah thats a good way to put it

[supple thunder]

Wait wot

Weighty triggers????

So it's like force feedback in triggers? Omg.

[quasi raptor]

It will probably be a commendable version of the game assuming it doesn't pull a sonic colors ultimate

[prisma briar]

Did you not know what adaptive triggers were

They provide varying feedback depending on what theyre mimicking

[supple thunder]

No Joe, I'm a pc boi.

[prisma briar]

I mean I was for a while and I still knew

Anyway

[quasi raptor]

lmao

[prisma briar]

They can do a lot, like be powerful triggers, and I assume be like break pedals

[supple thunder]

I'm intrigued.

[prisma briar]

The PS5 controller is very fascinating tech

[quasi raptor]

It's nice to get an added level of precision and immersion from something that's not a motion controller

Or virtual reality

[supple thunder]

Haptic 👏 thumbsticks 👏 when 👏

[prisma briar]

Ps6 announces haptic console buttons

Now turn on your PlayStation like it’s a god damn tractor because fuck you that’s why

[supple thunder]

I'd gel with that tbh.

[quasi raptor]

I wanted to mention this

I looked up some specs for the next gen consoles and it seems the series x is slightly more powerful than the PS5

[prisma briar]

Yes this is known

[quasi raptor]

Didn't bother me personally
I still think the ps 5 is absolutely incredible and blows me away
But I just thought that was worth bringing up

[prisma briar]

This was known before they came out, the series X is slightly more powerful

But I haven’t seen any noticeable difference yet

They’re both very powerful game consoles so frankly there may be a difference but if I can happily play switch ports of a game you can play terrific versions that might have one or two anti aliasing changes or something horrifically small

Also I wouldn’t buy an Xbox anyway, I always need a good wifi router

[quasi raptor]

Like I said before I'll buy one if they do something that kinda makes it inevitable

like ah shit, fine...
if Wolfenstein 3 or some shit is exclusive

[prisma briar]

In Astros playroom the fucking RAINDROPS are PlayStation symbols

What the fuck that’s so neat

[quasi raptor]

I didn't notice that before

I should probably play more of it

[prisma briar]

I bet you half of the people who played didn’t

I love detail like that

[quasi raptor]

Oh wait actually I have the weekend I need to play more marvel Avengers

i actually love the story

[quasi raptor]

me too, its such a sweet game

lowkey adorable

I feel like it's the kind of thing I'd boot up if I was in a bad mood

and then I would smile

[prisma briar]

Imagine making this just because you could and Microsoft won’t do it with fucking BANJO

Christ

[quasi raptor]

Like a slime rancher type of thing

[prisma briar]

Slime rancher makes me sad with those Murder death of the slimes lol but I digress

[quasi raptor]

The art style in that game is really cathartic though

I also love that it actually runs on my potato pc

[spark yarrow]

I wonder if the face buttons or L1/R1 are pressure sensitive again like the DualShock 2

[lime gyro]

Pogger

[quasi raptor]

All 3 of us gotta find something to play on that together

[lime gyro]

Literally fortnite

Or rumbleversus

That's fin as fuck

[quasi raptor]

Joe won't play fortnite unless they add sonic

[lime gyro]

Fall guys

Ezpz

[quasi raptor]

Alright lol

I may end up jumping to my PS4 for that though because I don't feel like installing on my PS5

[prisma briar]

Still giddy about the piss5

[quasi raptor]

me too to an extent

still feels kinda great i was able to get one so soon

[prisma briar]

Mate my purchase was such a power move

[quasi raptor]

mine too

[prisma briar]

I went to dad like “would you mind if I bought a ps5” I went online and an hour later I’d ordered one

No fuss, quite lucky

Then it arrived next day

And here I am

[quasi raptor]

chad move

[prisma briar]

I was baffled frankly

Even with FIFA it was cheaper than buying from eBay

[quasi raptor]

I was baffled by having to buy it in a bundle but here we are

[prisma briar]

Yeah GAME had loads of those

All sorts of game bundles, controllers, even other weird guff

[quasi raptor]

thanks Gamestop, i can always count on you to be fucking weird

[prisma briar]

lol seems just like mine anyway

[quasi raptor]

ha

[prisma briar]

I mean most of my PS5s online were bundles at game

Weird that I was just talking to aodhan about ps5s and he jokingly told me he recommends game for buying one

[quasi raptor]

The fact that I had to get it with elden ring was slightly disappointing but I was optimistic that I would play it and enjoy it

although ive barely played it

[prisma briar]

There’s too many games I want, but I really want a charging dock and spare controller too

[quasi raptor]

Most of the PS5 stuff that appeals to me is upcoming

[spark yarrow]

I kinda wanna get a dualsense for my PC

[quasi raptor]

dualsex pro 420

Yes thank you that was my horrible joke of the day

[spark yarrow]

heheheheh

[prisma briar]

A large amount of stuff I care for is mostly multiplatform, just Sony has one or two exclusives I would love to play

[quasi raptor]

theres just like so many games i can think of that are a ways from coming out

cant think of too many that are already out that im like "i need to play this"

[prisma briar]

I’ll make sonic frontiers last as long as humanly possible, then I’ll buy it again

[quasi raptor]

yeah that

but like so many star wars and superhero games in development holy nutsack dude

[prisma briar]

For me, it’s get through Ghost of Tsushima, I really wanna play Ratchet and Clank, Spiderman MM, and maybe a few other things with PS5 upgrades

[quasi raptor]

i mean yeah its a good place to finish alot of my ps4 back catalog

oh shit thats right i told myself recently that i would play the god of war reboot but then i completely forgot

do i even need to play the ps2/ps3 entries to enjoy that?

i was never a fan of angry arrogant chad kratos anyways

[prisma briar]

Nah I don’t think so

I’ll play it at some point

[quasi raptor]

good to hear

i cerytainly know ive played a bit of god of war but i never thought the hack and slash gameplay seemed super deep

like not even close to as intricate as DMC gameplay

either way kratos to me in those games seems like the most uncompelling protagonist ever

[quasi raptor]

@prisma briar have you finished ricco harbor on mario sunshine

I feel like I am completely lost in this fucking level

[prisma briar]

I got enough stars to finish the game

[quasi raptor]

nice

so ya got any tips? id appreciate it

[prisma briar]

The start of the level gives you a hint at what the star is or where it might be

Depending how early you are I might know but it’s either a boss/find a star/ a pipe

[quasi raptor]

I just really don't know where the end of this level is supposed to be and I kind of hate the layout of it to be honest

[prisma briar]

I have a feeling both those things are related

The level is not supposed to end, it’s the same world for all 8 levels

Which one are you on, like shine 1, 2 whatever

[quasi raptor]

ricco harbor

[prisma briar]

Which shine of that place though

[quasi raptor]

Give me a minute

[quasi raptor]

it says episode 1???

[prisma briar]

Okay cool

[quasi raptor]

I'm sorry if I know Jack shit about this game I really want to beat it but I didn't grow up with it or anything

it confuses me

[prisma briar]

Well you don’t have to grow up with a game for it to make any sense

Levels are not “start to end” they are open areas in which you find the shine

[quasi raptor]

Oh

[prisma briar]

The first area, you need to get on the boats right near the start, and traverse the linear path that proceeds after getting on them

If that’s not the case then it’s the squid fight just like legit down the road

I can’t remember which is first

Try that first

You’re either going to the end there or the big round platform just to the right of it, I think It’s the arrow though

Check what the levels are called too

I wonder what you’re looking for

[quasi raptor]

So if the shine is clear on that screen does that mean I've gotten it already

This is gonna sound really stupid but I legitimately forgot if I finished this or not

[prisma briar]

If you have the shine you’d have unlocked the next level

No skeet you haven’t

Follow the arrow I did, it’s near enough a straight like

[swift zodiac]

https://www.pcgamer.com/datamining-suggests-mark-hamill-will-voice-the-joker-in-multiversus/

Huge W for Multiversus

[quasi raptor]

That makes sense to me because Tara Strong already voices Harley Quinn and she voiced Harley in Arkham City and Knight

and kevin conroy as batman of course

so they already have the arkham voice actors as a theme

[quasi raptor]

@prisma briar

YOOOOOOOOO

I've been waiting to play Hot Wheels but have constantly hesitated to actually buy it

[lime gyro]

im gonna platinum superhot

[quasi raptor]

i actually already bought super hot on switch lol

I'll still claim it on ps5 tho because it's great and it'll run faster

Injustice being there is a complete waste for me though because I have the legendary edition on disk

[lime gyro]

i own injustice 2 as well

fuming that its one of the free games

[quasi raptor]

I mean it depends on the person really

There's probably some people out there that didn't have injustice 2 already

It's a good game to have as free it just sucks if you already have it

[lime gyro]

its on ps extra

so majority of ppl with ps plus can get it easily

[quasi raptor]

I don't have PSX

[lime gyro]

poor ass

lol!

[quasi raptor]

nah bro im a college student

[lime gyro]

you should rly get it tho

[quasi raptor]

that aint worth the risk

[lime gyro]

its worth every pe n ny

[quasi raptor]

I just don't think I can do it now

[lime gyro]

fair enough

[quasi raptor]

I've got plenty of games still

Plus collection was nice too

[prisma briar]

Pretty sure I posed this a while ago, if not - I’m happy about hot wheels for sure

[quasi raptor]

I'm incredibly hot happy about Hot Wheels🫂

I grew up with those toys and it's really great to see that there is a good modern game based on it

[swift zodiac]

Yoooo sick Superhot!

[quasi raptor]

@swift zodiac yo
https://www.marvel.com/articles/games/get-ready-for-an-all-new-iron-man-game-from-marvel-entertainment-and-motive-studio

forgot to mention, there's an iron man game in development

Motive is an EA owned studio but don't be alarmed, they made Star Wars Squadrons and that game was good

[swift zodiac]

Aye alright

I like the recent influx of Marvel and DC video games

[quasi raptor]

me too

[quasi raptor]

we may be entering a new renaissance of superhero games

[swift zodiac]

And I'm here for it

[quasi raptor]

This iron man game is an uphill battle
There has never been a good iron man game
i was playing as iron man in the avengers game yesterday, there's a solid foundation there for how to do an iron man moveset

[prisma briar]

@quasi raptor not bad for £19

@lime gyro maybe you too

[dark charm]

Jealous

[cedar pasture]

good game

not as good as the original though

[prisma briar]

I’ll judge that, but that’s not the worst fault in the world

I’ve heard it’s not quite as extensive as the first, but it did always look more like a full on expansion rather than the later announced spiderman 2

[quasi raptor]

i got mine for about 20 too

yeah thatd a dope price

[prisma briar]

Tried to get the best case lol

Very excited for my first proper PS5 game

[quasi raptor]

especially considering the main story is like 7 hours long

[prisma briar]

I tend to dick around and explore a lot so I’m sure I’ll get my time out of it

[quasi raptor]

yeah its got a lot of side content too just like the PS4 game

i havent even finished most of it myself

[prisma briar]

Nice

I’m excited to play it tonight

[swift zodiac]

W

Have fun with it!

[prisma briar]

Thanq :)

[cedar pasture]

I think it's fine. Miles is cool and the story is fine as well

and the game still plays well

if this was the first Spider-Man game in the series it would be great, but by comparison it's lacking compared to the original

but not topping the original is not a criticism as the first game was just that good and even if a game comes close (which this one does) is still a compliment imo

[quasi raptor]

I think it's fair to call that game glorified DLC

Not in a bad way it's just not something that ever justified a $60 price tag

[prisma briar]

Cool beans

[spark yarrow]

yooo nice!

neat to see a physical copy too

[prisma briar]

This game is very pretty

Love that it has a performance RT mode for 60fps and ray tracing

[median pulsar]

Damn that lighting

[prisma briar]

Isn’t it just epic and poggers

[quasi raptor]

C O R R E C T

[lime gyro]

free with ps extra git skamd

its also a way easier platinum than spider-man

[prisma briar]

Oh no, I should have subscribed to that and gotten a digital copy which is so much better

[lime gyro]

its like five pounds extra a month

im just saying

git skamd

[prisma briar]

Who the fuck pays monthly for these services

[lime gyro]

m e

wait i think i paid yearly

wow nvm its twice the price of regular fuck that

[quasi raptor]

I cannot fucking wait to add Hot Wheels unleashed to my library when I get home tonight

and probably install it overnight

@prisma briar today's the day we can download them, HYPE

[prisma briar]

YAY

[quasi raptor]

I just feel an overwhelming feeling of nostalgia knowing i get to play a new hot wheels game

[quasi raptor]

bri'ish

innit

[lime gyro]

Very insightful smh

[quasi raptor]

I like how you basically complimented me then said smh anyways

[lime gyro]

I'm being sarcastic

[quasi raptor]

i know

it was just amusing

[lime gyro]

Ok

[spark yarrow]

TIL NFS Most Wanted 2012 was on PSVita

kinda wanna get a physical PC copy of the 2005 version

but physical PC games are a strange market

[prisma briar]

And a cheap one, I got mine for like £3 once

[quasi raptor]

Funny how for once in my life I'm actually excited about this type of thing

thanks ps plus

[prisma briar]

yeah its neat

[quasi raptor]

heat was the most recent nfs game right?

i think

[prisma briar]

yes

depending on if you count Hot Pursuit remastered, but thats only because it came out

[quasi raptor]

yeah i dont lol

tho i enjoy the fact that heat is the most recent one and is also actually good

[prisma briar]

Heat is decent yeah, maybe a solid 7/10

[quasi raptor]

so this announcement has the potential to be fuckin dope

[prisma briar]

so weird that NFS doesnt get any remasters outside of Hot Pursuit

[quasi raptor]

ha

yeah

[prisma briar]

like sure that game's remaster was good and im glad its on ps4/xbone and beyond

but the pc version was still there and looked basically the same anyway lol

[quasi raptor]

also whats with the trend of nfs games making reboots of older titles

i know theres only been basically two but its odd to me lol
