Raz Review: "Hideo Kojima has learned some lessons from previous
incarnations of MGS. While the 'one-way' map design has opened up into
multiple routes for objectives; there are still some frustrating minor
elements (Snake still can't perform some basic movements like jumping
unless in a context-sensitive area).
The cut-scenes are longer
than they should be; and while the familiar campy scripting is
endearing, it also contains way too much exposition. Not that it isn't
brilliant and entertaining, but I want to PLAY! (That being said, there
are some truly awe-inspiring fight sequences that shouldn't be skipped.
It's when Kojima tries to get all emotional that I start looking at my
watch.)
These are minor complaints, though, considering the
overall quality of the game; everything is beautifully crafted. This is
the experience of playing a movie. Even the load screens are nicely put
together; with friendly little messages like "It's after 3am. You've
been playing for 5 hours - why not take a break?"
You'll need that reminder, trust me. GTA4 set the bar for action/adventure games; MGS4 sets it for stealth/action."

With Arkane Austin no more and Lyon living for who knows how long, the superb Dishonored is in serious danger; Microsoft cannot be trusted.
I love the Dishonored series so much and really want Dishonored 3. Microsoft better not screw this up.
I mean, I think the fans will probably kill Arkane Lyon by cooking up reasons to hate whatever they do next without playing it. I've never seen a game so artificially disliked as Deathloop.
Lol, why don't we just say, we are worried about all studios owned by MS now. They will keep closing studios until they have none left ...🙄
A renowned industry insider has suggested the rumored PlayStation May 2024 showcase featuring Silent Hill 2 could happen this week.
Bogus!
Why would Sony do that and how would this benefit them?
1) It would piss off their media partners (IGN, Gamespot, Edge, etc.) since they would have to allocate resources fast to cover the event.
2) Risk of not having great coverage or proper coverage from the various source
3) It could give the impression that they are not confident in their own stuff.
4) They would miss the chance to hype the event losing viewers and losing free marketing time.
Again I'm calling it bogus unless it's a small showcase before the big one or because they want to announce that Hellbalde 2 is also coming on PS5.
Going in with no expectations but likely will see something that resonates with me.
