Well that was short and pointless. Though all the MK11 content so far has been on point.

yeah it was like 95% just VR or already known/announced games having VR
-
Yeah probably will reveal something better around may or june.

! Homo Demons.
! DIE HARDMAN.–- Update From New Post Merge ---

Yay another post-apocalyptic open-world action game. With war and horror and an exploration simulator? Odds of this game making any type of sense seem low lol.
-
I have no idea what is going on in this game, and I kind of love that.
-
I don't want to get hyped and then disappointed again like with MGSV but this honestly looks amazing. I hope that what seems like freeform exploration and that rumored interesting control scheme (needing to balance) is in the game.
-
All I see is the video game version of the car Homer designed. A bunch of ill-conceived "cool" shit thrown together nonsensically in a way that could never possibly be good, but nobody was allowed to reject any of the juvenile ideas because Kojima is chasing his
filmgame masterpiece.So hey, it'll get voted Game of the Year probably.
-
I'm sick of open world games in general but I feel like that's more how they're usually done than anything else since I like playing Stalker for instance and just screwing around in the world. Gonna wait for full gameplay to think about getting it though probably because MGSV also looked cool before release but ended up being pretty repetitive and suffering from the lack of any actual design that the games before it had. I hope this game doesn't fall into that hole too. I also hope it doesn't have intrusive online elements that would prevent me from playing the game later on. But what seems like delivering things and being able to place items like ladders and cables to get around the environment seems pretty cool. MGSV didn't really have any of that and even with it being "open" it felt like a flat field most of the time with no actually interesting environmental things to it outside of the handful of set piece locations that closed the game down immensely when you got to them.
I also hope the action set pieces aren't intrusive but they probably will be.
-
Doesnt seem much different than the usual "In a world…" Hollywood movie, just in game form. I hope it turns out good, but the emphasis on real actors makes me fear it will be an incredibly simple and safe game that will make all the people who normally wouldnt play games drawn in by them without digging too much on it, especially gameplay wise. The Ladder and Rope remind a lot of Botw runes, but summoning and using them looks incredibly lenghty and clunky for what they accomplish, compared to just pressing X near a wall and climbing it or flying off from it.

I'm sure you can jump off cliffs if you want to but I doubt it'll end up well. Video games just take so much to make up to the quality people want these days. It's easier and faster to scan real people than making models from scratch, at least if you're making a "realistic" game. I don't like it either but my tolerance for graphics is much less than most people's I imagine. I haven't bought into this generation yet though either so people who spent $400 on a PS4 or however much on a PS4 pro probably want their money to pay off in at least some leap in quality, even if it means the actual gameplay is lacking. I've been less and less interested in video games recently partially because I don't feel like anything plays like I want it to these days and on top of that they run like trash because of the graphical quality. And yet that quality generally is really good up close and then anything in the distance looks like garbage. Lack of consistency for the best peak.

I love how the moment I decide to buy the annual pass for Destiny 2 not a whole 24 hours after the fact Sony decided to sell it for $14 and some change. And since it has certain aspects involved in it's content I can't just refund it and get back the 34.99 I spent on it:getlost:.

^That reminded me that the digital E3 sale started today.
Here's the list of prices for the US.
Well I took a look and wasn't terribly impressed by anything. I upgraded to a 1TB PS4 last Black Friday and still haven't used the 20% off code because I don't buy anything digital. It expires at the end of this month so I figured that I would wait for E3. So long story short, I have a code if anyone wants it. Apparently it works for the entire cart so add as many games as you want. Only rule is that your join date can't say Jun 2019.

I'll take it off your hands…..eventhough most of the stuff being offered is either trash or I already own.

hrm, Spiderman, Tales of Vesperia, Nino Kuni 2, Divinity 2… all good but I literally just bought Divinity 1 last week when IT was on sale, plus I have a backlog.... maybe I'll pick up spiderman but i shouldn't get any more rpgs for a while...

Sony has bought Insomniac Games.
Team behind the OG Spyro Trilogy, Ratchet & Clank & Spider-Man PS4.
-
I figured they were already part of Sony. Though I guess they were more an independent studio that just mostly worked with Sony.
-
Yeah, they did Sunset Overdrive for Microsoft.

Nice to hear with Microsoft buying up so many studios. Hope they get a couple more if it's going to be another war.
-
Microsoft has really just been playing catch-up, which is perfectly fine. Sony's first-party studio lineup was already pretty darned good, and Insomniac was practically a common-law Sony First-Party.
It's a shame just in the sense I'd like Spiderman PS4 to have the widest audience possible, because it along with Spiderverse better encapsulates what makes that series work than anything else.
-
I mean to be fair if Spider-Man was ever going to show up on another platform PC would've made far more sense than X-Box which of course they "could" still do so.
Though I'd not hold my breath.
And yeah 20 years to do this jesus.

What's going on with Rare? They should be Microsoft's powerhouse but I haven't really enjoyed anything they put out since Banjo-Tooie.

Have you playes Conker for N64? It's pretty good.
I think nowadays they are only workin on Sea of Thieves.
-

I can't get past that beehive carrying thing, it's too awkward trying to swerve left and right repeatedly and not fall off the cliff or get stung. I thought about getting Sea of Thieves but since it requires the online account I'm like no thanks.
-
This happened today btw.
-
The only thing I take away from that is this.
That thing was announced like FOUR YEARS ago. Nice to see the Katamari guy is still on drugs.
-
He IS drugs, Robby.

What the shit?
-
Playstation 5 officially announced at the Game Awards.
-
PS5 stuff in 25 mins for those interested

Was hoping for backwards compatibility up to 3 :(
-
3 had really weird tech, it was always going to be rough to to push forward. They basically had to build a PS3 into the PS4, which is why it was so expensive initially and why they took it out imediatley.
But 1 and 2 are old enough basically anything can ruin them,most of the good games were already coverted from 3, and it looks like they're trying to forward proof it from here. So…
You may not be able to just plop in the disks and play, and the entire ginormous PS2 library isn't available, but most things will be playable.

Was it not the 2 into 3 that they did? I got my PS4 on launch and I don't recall it being able to play PS3 games.

PS4 was my first console, I can play any games from the PS1 and PS2 era easily enough via emulation but not so for the PS3. And there are a bunch of PS3 games I really wanna play like Demon's Souls, MGS4 or God of War:Ascension.

You can play some on the PS now service but that comes with a bunch of lag.
-

Oh yeah, you're right.
I must be getting old. Remembering the console release from 14 years ago as if it were the release from 7 years ago.
Regardless, 3 DID have weird tech which is why it wasn't folded into the 4.
Really weird hardware is also one of the reasons nothing from the Sega Saturn has made it to modern day, even 26 years later, aside from the couple games remade from scratch like Nights and Panzer Dragoon,
-
Wasn’t that supposedly cause Sega lost the means to replicate that?
-
I think the Saturn had like 2 CPUs and its graphics base was rectangles instead of triangles.
-
I call that madness. A square is two triangles.
Then again is all betamax vs vhs again, but it doesn't make sense, it looks like an experiment but makes zero sense as triangles was already industry standar back then, and I can't fathom any advantages to squares. I think that you'd lose some detail on models, and gain some minuscle texture improvements in the human side of workflow for certain kinds of tilings, but that doesn't seem like a reasonable reason to break with industry standars.
I remember that emulating marvel vs capcom 2 was particulary complicated, and everyone recomended the arcade version instead of the saturn one.

I didn't know MvC2 was on the Saturn. I was also under the impression that most Capcom games released on the Saturn and Dreamcast were as close to their arcade originals than other systems at the time.
-

Partly insane hardware, partly sega was awful about keeping their source code on anything.
For the most part the library being unproduced isn't a huge loss, mmost games were multi=platform, but there were definitely a few that its a shame to lose. Panzer Dragoon saga, Dragon Force, Burning Rangers, Guardian Heroes, Virtua On…

This post is deleted!
-
There should be a cord that lets you directly connect it to a PS3 and lets you manage and copy files from there.
No idea how compatible it is with PS4.
-
That Ghost of Tsushima game looks pretty nifty.
-
It looks pretty ok so far.
Combat looks very Assassin's Creed-like and doesn't really seem to have much depth besides capturing the dullness of samurai in gameplay.
-
I was getting a bit disapointed with that, but then they showed that black and white movie mode and that shit looked pretty cool.
So I'm keeping my eyes on it for a while longer.. -
Sony pushed back the PS5 reveal.

The PS5 is a myth parents tell to make their children behave.
If they don't eat their vegetables, Mark Cerny will crawl through their window at night and force them to play Marble Madness.

Let’s graphic then scary tells parents would tell their kids surrounding Shin Megami Tensei 5….. of course I jumped on the meme wagon.
