By rvy Go To Postfable by playground games sounds interestingI think Fable 2 is better than the original. 3 is really where it went downhill.
Lord knows the first game was really good and it went to shit after, thanks peter
I expect this reboot to open world and pretty different from old Fable. If it's Playground, though, they'll kill it. Microsoft should let them make basically any game they want.
By DY_nasty Go To PostI play plenty of open world games but I forgive Zelda for being boring 😂 its just so weird to meSo you've played Botw now? I'm glad you got to experience greatness. I was starting to worry about you buying a switch just for Xenoblade and dynasty warriors...
By rodeoclown Go To PostI think Fable 2 is better than the original. 3 is really where it went downhill.I really couldn't stand the way the character slid all over the place, it controlled like crap

dunno what the point of that vive is, doesn't seem worth picking up a new vr headset until proper next gen solutions are here
By masud Go To PostSo you've played Botw now? I'm glad you got to experience greatness. I was starting to worry about you buying a switch just for Xenoblade and dynasty warriors…I've said I've played it multiple times now and that I'm getting a Switch for Metroid lol. Someone disliking BOTW is literally inconceivable.
The game is aite. Kinda forgettable too. Don't forget to look under every rock ever.
I don't really know how you can critically review BOTW and give it a 10. There's a whole half of the game that's broken.
Its still my GOTY but if I was a reviewer? I dont know how you can overlook so much shit.

people have a high tolerance for overlooking
tried that project octopath demo, it looks great and hopefully the dev team can deliver this time instead of Bravely Default.
By s y Go To PostI don't really know how you can critically review BOTW and give it a 10. There's a whole half of the game that's broken.Eh there's no mathematical formula for review scores. I thought the combat in the Witcher 3 was so bad that I avoided it as much as possible and stuck to gwent like it was a damn Yu-Gi-Oh rpg. But everything else about the game was so good that if you ask me to distill my opinion down to a range of numbers then fuck it give it the highest number.

Someone disliking BOTW is literally inconceivable.Last time I spoke to you about Botw you told me you refused to play it because you've never enjoyed a Zelda game. Sorry it bored you, maybe they should have added a few talking animal companions?

Good exploration and good dungeons are my main checklist for Zelda games. if you get at least one of them right, you've got a brilliant Zelda game imo.
Fortunately with BOtW, they got so much of the world right, it's one of my favourite worlds just to explore, doesnt really matter if the combat is simplistic or whatever.

How mad are you though lol. Is this about the friend code? I don't give my friend codes to anyone
I actually really liked the whole "you start doing evil you start looking like a real shit piece" thing in Fable.
On the topic of Yu-Gi-Oh, how weird is it that there's no card-based rpg on Vita? Like, how has Japan gone through 5+ years without just producing one of those by accident?
All I want is SNK vs Capcom Cardfighters Clash again. Those games justified the Neo Geo Pocket's existence by themselves.

Scoring games is just weird really.
If a game has literally perfect gameplay, but it’s only a minute long, would that classify as a 10/10?
If a game gets everything right, apart from one aspect, but said aspect is half of the game does that mean it’ll only deserve a 5/10?
What if a game is average in every aspect, but the synergy between the gameplay mechanics, atmosphere and story make the actual experience of playing it much greater than the sum of it’s parts? How’re you supposed to score that kinda shit?

By joefu Go To PostI need baten kaitos remakes. Looking back, that was my first experience with Monolift Softi'm sorry you had to deal with that
By s y Go To PostCrazy thinking about how the PS3 damn near sunk Sony.What? It sold about the same as the Xbox 360.
By reilo Go To PostSo it's safe to say it's gonna hit 100mil before 2020?Easily.
By s y Go To PostCrazy thinking about how the PS3 damn near sunk Sony.
$599/£425
The crazier thing is that the PS3 didn’t sink them, nor the PSN outtage/hack that left owners without online play for like 3 months.
By LFMartins86 Go To PostWhat? It sold about the same as the Xbox 360.I think it eventually outsold the 360, but it had a very rough start.
By DY_nasty Go To PostNo, I said I refused to day one it like everyone else and roll with the hype because I don't like Zelda games.Oh come on man it's not that serious, I'm just talking shit like you.
How mad are you though lol. Is this about the friend code? I don't give my friend codes to anyone
(You could have just said that from jump instead of ignoring me jerk)
By LFMartins86 Go To PostWhat? It sold about the same as the Xbox 360.PS3 had a suuuuppppppppeeeer rough start, Sony was losing crazy money. It didn't really hits its stride until 2009.
Easily.
By blackace Go To PostDy.. have you played Endless Space 2 after the new updates???Naw. I hear its god's gift to 4x but endless space 2 just doesn't grab me like it should
i do plan to hop back on soon though
By s y Go To PostPS3 had a suuuuppppppppeeeer rough start, Sony was losing crazy money. It didn't really hits its stride until 2009.PS3 and 360 had an inverse lifecycle that generation.
By DY_nasty Go To PostNaw. I hear its god's gift to 4x but endless space 2 just doesn't grab me like it shouldlol you were the one who put me on it...
i do plan to hop back on soon though
the updates made it a different game for real tho... really good
By DY_nasty Go To Posti'm sorry you had to deal with thatWhat? I remember really enjoying the game lol. It's been ages since I played it though.
Origins was better, but I never did finish it.

Look at how you spelled Monolith Soft.
And remember there's no shame in needing pills for that sort of thing, one day we probably all will.
By livefromkyoto Go To PostLook at how you spelled Monolith Soft.lol not paying attention when i type isn't anything haha. i'm guessing i jumbled the lith and the soft and just made monolift lolol
And remember there's no shame in needing pills for that sort of thing, one day we probably all will.
And talking about 10/10s...how is Rez Infinite this good? The original was already perfection, probably one of my 3 favourite games ever. But this version is...more. 11/10 tbh.

That's...hey. I was playing with headphones, but it might be time to hook up the sub to the tv and fuck up the downstairs neigbours' lives.
nvm, that's pretty bad
for all people who are ranked, I am in a grouping of 20,000 people where there are roughly 33,000 ahead of us and 11,000 behind us. so, mediocre.

The Wandering Couple quest in Nier is like...damn. That's the most gut-punchy commentary on relationships I've read in a while.
Damn ass Creed origins Is buggy af. Have already had to restart two missions off glitches and it's early days

HTC Vive Pro:
-higher resolution (2880 x 1600), a 78% increase
-integrated audio speaker (3D audio), with build in amplifier
-lighter weight, enhanced ergonomics and comfort
-dual microphones with active noise cancellation
-dual front facing cameras to 'empower developer creativity'
-also HMD only upgrade option (for current Vive owners who just want HMD upgrade)
-compatible with up to 4 lighthouse base stations (also -compatible with current 1.0 and future 2.0 version)
-the Audio strap on Vive Pro is different from current Deluxe Audio Strap
Looks really nice. Resolution is the same as Samsung Odyssey mixed reality headset which came out a couple of months ago so it probably uses the same screen. From impressions of that its not a big enough upgrade on the current headsets to consider upgrading but its still a step in the right direction and it makes the Vive Pro the headset to get if you are getting into VR and have a high end card such as a gtx 1070 or above. It will be interesting to see the minimum requirements and price are but Vive needed to do something because they were selling the premium vr package but not offering much more than the competition. From impressions of the original Vive integrated speakers is a much needed upgrade as are the better ergonomics/comfort. Hopefully the 2 cameras can do AR as that will open up a lot of possibilities for new experiences. 2 microphones seems a bit superfluous but I guess if you are paying for the premium pro experience things like this make it more appealing.
By W Go To Postand Wireless add on. Time to get a second Vive headset
The wireless add on is available for the pro and the original Vive. Hopefully it will be cheaper and more user friendly then the TPcast.
