Haunting, confrontational, and deeply cathartic all at once, Senua's Saga: Hellblade 2 is a stunning feat of video game art. Ninja Theory doesn't tiptoe around its heavy themes but welcomes them with well-honed empathy, tempered by an even keener creative edge this time around to deliver an unforgettable narrative adventure experience that's hard to watch, yet harder to turn away from.
Wow, Gamesradar really love Xbox games. They gave Starfield a perfect score calling it quote "The Best Bethesda Game In 20 Years" and now Hellblade.
Fingers crossed it'll be enough for MS not to shutdown Ninja Theory.
Metro writes: "And yet, as astounding as the graphics are the game never really finds anything interesting to do with them and a large percentage of the game is just slowly walking forward while listening to the Furies and/or your various companions. It’s not quite a walking simulator but it’s not far off."
Another Xbox flop to add to the list. At this point there needs to be an acknowledgment that Xbox is incapable of managing studios and producing good games. They haven’t produced a classic game in over 10 years.
WellPlayed: "Senua's Saga: Hellblade II is an achievement in visual fidelity but fails to define itself amid clumsy retreads and unengaging new ideas."
Nice knowing you, Ninja Theory. hopefully you guys have those resumes ready.

No.
Major news sites shouldn't be immune, either. Even a stopped clock gives the right time twice a day, but that doesn't make it a reliable or credible source for telling the time.
I say 2 - Mostly because if a big site is talking about it then it might have more weight to it.
Can't you guys like have a rumour tag and when you select it highlights the title of the article in orange or something to let the article stand out. Then when it's true the colour can turn green and if proven 100% false it turns red. I don't know spit balling.
I'm kind of surprised to have a poll, it's nice to allow the community to have a say however why not ask if to allow video game film news from big sites since Filmwatch is a ghost town or why not allow big Youtube streamers like Jim Sterling or Angry Joe for example to be posted on here? Least with someone like Jim Sterling whether you like the guy he researches and tells you about shitty MT's, lootboxes or anti consumer pratices, it gets the word out.
Could we maybe have a vote on those topics please.
