CRank: 5Score: 62400

Exactly my thoughts. New controllers for a new console has been standard practice for decades. Now that Sony wants to make improvements to their controller, all of a sudden it's a terrible thing and Sony are going to crash and burn.

Well that was unexpected.

Not my cup of tea, but I'm all for games with this level of detail and polish being made. It's obvious a great deal of effort went into making this, so it'll be interesting to see if high scores like this usher in a new wave of popularity for simulators.

I just want to see a few things confirmed:
1. Absolutely no Premium/Standard distinction between the cars. That was the biggest thing that disappointed me about GT5, having most of the cars be low poly PS2 renders. ALL the cars in GT7 should have a level of detail expected from modern racing games.
2. Revamped offline GT Mode with all the lovely license tests and coffee break challenges, and wide range of races and championships tweaked to prevent the old "buy one top r...

Exactly my thoughts. Even in my longest gaming sessions I still need to take breaks to make dinner, do other stuff, and plug my controller back in during those times. I've had PS4 since launch and very rarely have I ever had my DS4 battery go low, and that's usually because I've forgotten to charge it. I don't see how 10 hours battery life is bad.

There's nothing bad about better battery life. More battery life is always a good thing. But saying stuff like "Anything under 30 hours isn't good enough" is just bizarre. I couldn't imagine ever needing that much. If people are routinely doing 12 hour sessions while refusing to take breaks, there's something wrong.

Oh man, that was such a tragedy. :(

Turning Dead Space 3 into a damn co-op action game with unified ammo and then stating that they expected it to outsell the previous games in the series... My brother and I still had fun with it, but it was a far cry from the first two games. So glad I waited for it to hit the bargain bin before picking it up.

This just in:

Talented studios "less interested than ever" in being acquired by EA.

Halo Infinite wasn't crowdfunded and the devs didn't spend years on end begging for more money from the public to finish the game with no end in sight. How the hell can you even compare the two!?

This is like the "Power of the cloud" all over again.

I still remember watching that Crackdown 3 gameplay demo and having to pick my jaw up from the floor. At the event they literally showed gameplay in real time, with one of the devs shooting down a wall. I was absolutely blown away. It was incredible. There was no way they were BSing their way through that, right? We literally have gameplay! We can trust them... Right?

Sorry to go a bit off to...

The sheer number of games with GaaS models is going to stretch playerbases thinner and thinner. Most people will have one, maybe two games at most that they play for years. It simply takes too much time and investment to do any more, especially if you occasionally play other games in between or have other interests. And 10 years is a long, long time. An amazing game can still get boring after 10 years, and who knows what other games we'll see next gen?

"They're under pressure! And the pand-d-d-demic!"

There I was, creating assets for a game when, BANG! Under pressure! My hand slipped and the code went all wrong. I tried to fix it but the pandemic got me down and I started crying at my desk. In a fit of insanity I made the brute look silly and made the draw distance go all out of whack. My only solace was knowing that this was happening to every developer in the world, and nobody would be capable of actually...

Eh, the graphics looked okay to me.

I just wish they'd shown the Series X version, or at least the One X version. ;)

Oh man, that TLoU2 comparison slayed me. 😂

As a huge fan of both of these legends, count me in!

On the one hand, this is just an optional mod that people can choose not to use.

On the other hand, the way "objectionable content" in games seems to be being approached is somewhat baffling. Players can commit mass murder and nobody bats an eye. ("It's just those Jack Thompson conservative nutjobs thinking games make people violent" etc) But a character in a game asks you to strip for them in Morrowind's glorious, blocky loincloth glory, and on...

@Edgelordsupreme

People are using the symbol to piss people off. They see the media in a panic over a harmless gesture. People losing their mind and watching out for the racist boogeymen around every corner. So people troll them even more. It's hilarious.

Before the whole thing broke, I'd pretty much never used the OK gesture. Once the 4chan meme became a reality, my brother and I immediately did it and laughed. Not because we support white supre...

You are willingly giving power to racists. Why do you want to help white supremacists so much?

1421d ago 3 agree0 disagreeView comment

The point is, by this logic, people could claim that ANY gesture is now a symbol of white supremacy. Thumbs up? Jazz hands? The peace sign? Live long and prosper? Nope, all banned. If people claim they're doing it for racist reasons, we should do away with all of its historical use.

That is literally what you are proposing. You may not realise it, but you are helping racists. Stop. Helping. Racists.

Thank you, that was literally the joke.

I don't have much hope for this one.
