This game is going to be HUGE for a very small amount of people. Many will try it and it will sell about as much as any other title they'they've made but 6 months after launch the community will be small but absolutely hardcore.

I really want this but I have to be honest with myself and wonder if I have the skill and patience to stick with it. The concept and engine is astounding but I think there will be LBP fans that find this too daunting.

Much of this could be cool but it seems like Avalanche Studios immediately realized how popular JC2 was and planned for a sequel to really milk what fans liked about JC2.

PC mods for JC2 added many of the things talked about here. On one hand I applaud a studio for making what fans seem to want but on another it seems like a cash grab.

The entire game development community seems like a giant cash grab these days, tbh. Making money is the general point but it ...

I really want physical copies but I also really want to grab a few of these. I almost bought Until Dawn for full price last week so it seems like a must for half price. Like, at what savings do you forgo a physical copy when that is very important to you?

I'm tempted to grab 3 titles but I'm hesitant due to owning them digital. Damn...

I remember buying ZOE1 only because it came with a MGS2 demo disc. After I played the demo for a couple days I popped in ZOE1 and it was different but good. In fact, good enough to get ZOE2 and that was possibly the most overlooked but still known game on the PS2 (if that makes any sense lol). Great game.

Because he's awesome enough to have a single dude ask the majority of an entire medium's audience why they like him so much.

Nobody is infallible (I blame Hideo as much as Konami for MGSV) but it's a testament to his ability and passion that his most disappointing game is still better than 95% of what is out there.

The question itself is stupid, clickbait, dude at a sold out concert booing the stage level stupid. He's so popular because he d...

I hear it's called /insert word play on Silent Hill here

Teeheeheeee

Sweet workaround! However, I was watching some play it on Twitch and the AI is atrocious. Beta tends to be damn near what the finished product will be and this game will not be worth any price without fixing the AI. It's bad bad...really bad...comically bad but you sigh instead of laugh bad.

Kind of non-angry ranted about PS+ below but The Order is exactly the type of game I'm talking about. A game like that - an exclusive that isn't selling anymore but is intriguing despite reviews - should be on PS+ by now. JMHO

Catherine is almost constantly on sale for $2-5 so it is surprising to not see it in the Vday flash sale.

It should honestly be free at this point. It's begging and seems ready made to be a PS+ title so thus may be one last sales push before they give it away.

On the topic of PS+: I'm not one of those that think we should get a 3 month old, AAA title every month but I've been a subscriber since the beginning and they did toss a very solid, roughly year old AAA title to you every few months back in the beginning. I played Just Cause 2, RE5, Sleeping Dogs, the last Hitm...

Had to grab Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate for $12. I loved SE2 for PS3 and even though it's not perfect I had a blast with it and bought all the DLC. I'm a bit miffed that the "Ultimate" edition leaves out the Hitler kill DLC ($7) as Ultimate should mean....everything, ya know? Anyway, 505 was so solid with buyers of SE2 that I decided to support them as long as they keep making solid releases for this franchise. I hear it's good but not perfect so I had waited but $12 is too ...

MGSV

Oh, I just broke my own heart...fuck....not cool

3054d ago 1 agree0 disagreeView comment

Hmm....this looks like an eventual play but definitely not before MGSV and a few others on my backlog.

I have an odd concern that I'd heard someone mention during a recent hands-on: I heard you can't handbrake while driving. That's kind of a huge deal, IMO. The player said you had to make long, huge turns rather than the option of slamming the break and making that hard turn that should be available in literally any fast driving situation (especially in/on so muc...

This would straight up be my comp running any FPS made since 2010. No texture nodding necessary. I'm a gamer but the PC games I love tend to be older ones or I just get it on console b/c I'm too cheap to upgrade from my 2012 Wal-Mart mid-range laptop.

I'll play my Metal Gear and Uncharted on PS4. I'll play my Kerbal, Tropic 1-4, CoH & Empire Earth on my old ass laptop that rocks onboard Intel3000HD graphics lol.

This is much more like a really terrible PS2 Era game than PS1, IMO. It runs way too smooth to truly fool you but completely ruining/dropping the fps within an FPS is crazy. It's cool but they should have made the draw distance blocked by fog, much less AA, zero "shiny" textures like that wall had, etc.

Going back to any PS2 FPS is just so hard now so a true PS1 overhaul would be against common sense and fun. Dropping frames is not what I'd recommend but ad...

Absolutely did help as I hadn't been considering refresh rates in my searching. Good looking out. Thanks!

Thanks! Yeah, mine is from '07 so almost a decade old. It's an LCD screen and LED seems to be the basic now.

I just didn't want to drop $400 if the difference wasn't that big a deal in the 32-40" size range. Looks like I'll be spending about $500 on September 1st, haha.

Thanks again!

Yeah, long but literally labeled as to where the question was. That itself is pretty average in length for the posts here so I call dickery on this TL;DR.

I respect it when legit but I literally marked the only part that had to be read so this comes off as lame. Thanks for the stand advice lol.

I have a genuine question: MGS is my favorite franchise - period. I can't wait for mgsv but I have a question somewhat related to the topic.

I have a PS4. I've been a Sony guy since the PS1 but I'm no fanboy. X1 owners, enjoy the game! 900p or 90p, play and enjoy.

Anyway, I bought my last TV back in 2007 a little while after getting my PS3. 1080p was very luxury at the time and any sized TV at that resolution was multiple thousands of dollars. So,...

B-

Another idea I've had is a reimbursement system. Imagine a system where Sony releases the IGC each month the way they do now and members have a chance to decline the game for "points". Each game would have points based on what they paid to get the game on the IGC. They release MGS: GZ but you already own it? Decline EVER downloading/playing from PS+ for, say, 5 points credited to your account. A bum indie game they paid nothing for could be worth a point, et...
