It’s all Valve’s fault. I blame Valve for all of it.
It was five-thirty. I was just about to leave the office when a friend’s Facebook status reminded me that the Steam sale was on, but was due to end that day. That update was to be the casually-thrown cigarette butt that hit the touchpaper that sent the whole firework factory up.
You can clear your wanted levels in Star Wars Outlaws by defeating the death troopers.
Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 has received a substantial visual upgrade, and we've put together a comparison that shows the improvements.
Why market something that isn't designed to be sold?
This has GP rental written all over it.
They just posted a 20+ minute video about Psychosis and how the game portrays that through Senua.
Regardless of what Microsoft is doing (retweeting Ninja Theory is about as low effort as it gets, and Dashboard Dynamic Themes should've come months ago), Ninja Theory themselves are at least trying.
It's sad though. That new video was a really good behind-the-scenes too, and it just came at such a bad time.
How much marketing do games really need these days? People that play games know when its coming out. I really think the days of the constant tv ad etc are going the way of the Dodo. What scares me more is the lack of "previews" on big video game websites, it only got a few on April 4th and then nothing since.
It appears Sony is making changes to the PSN backend in order to pave the way for future cross-platform releases across PC and PS5.
If sony want their games to be more successful on pc and to sell more they need to bring the games day-one like helldivers 2! , and not after 2 years.
If it's first party (can't speak on Helldivers) then the PS5 should be focused on first in my opinion rather than worrying about 2 versions.
Nixxes takes completed code and ports that to PC. I'm sure they do work during primary development but I like this setup.
PS5 owners are treated as first class by their platform holder, PC players get the final complete version, and GaaS are treated separately. Win-win.
First party ps5 games need to be ps5 only until 6 months imo because they need to sell consoles still and then focus on PC later.
This makes sense, just now doing it shows how behind and short-sighted regarding PC they were to begin with.
I'm already not buying a PS5 Pro or PS6 and it isn't day one, They are already damaging themselves.
I will never understand PC Gamers
Consoles afterall, are designed and created just for games, and because of which can often produce amazing gems (i.e. Uncharted 2) which where made with that specific console in mind, you can't get that with PC gaming.
Because a PC is just adapted to be a gaming platform.
And I'm well aware of some of the advantages PC gaming has, believe me I am, but I'm also well aware of all the disadvantages.
Face it, PC gaming is now a second class citizen. You guys have to contend with DRM and waiting a stupid amount of time for games Xbox 360 & PS3 already have, and often crappy ports, i.e. GTA IV
So, while you happily boast about being able to mess about with mods, and increasing the resolution on your game while gaming on a 22 inch LCD Monitor
(where as console gamers are more akin to be playing on a 42 inch etc.)
We console gamers will be too busy playing and enjoying the next major blockbuster, because you guys have 6 months to wait until you get it ;)

Note, I'm also not just a die hard console fan, I do have a few PC games, and I have a pretty good rig, also study IT, so I know my way in and out of a computer, but I have just never seen it as a proper format for gaming on.
