Not because it's a big pretty looking package right now for me, but because the sheer amount of exteceptial exclusive titles, and haptic feedback makes the PS5 more of the superior console. But...that's why I own over everything. This also my opinion. Personally, I think it depends on the game. Something about the xbox controllers are just slightly more responsive and accurate. Anything that requires twitch reflexes is just easier with the xbox controller. It also has a better UI, but lacks the incredible narrative gaming experience Sony has. Sony has a far better "AAA gaming experience". The haptic feedback, 3d sound, upcoming vr headset, and amazing games that offer incredible story, but often the gameplay just isn't quite as good and precise as it should be. Xbox has also become much more customer friendly. 70$ for LoUp1, while every first party xbox game comes with a sub I rarely even pay for because of MS rewards. that said, I game far more on PS5. Also just my opinion though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not too bad, actually I thought it is impressive for what it is. The graphics are pretty good (There is an "exquisite" graphics setting) and you can customize the look of all of the characters. It's not like a typical idle game because there are parts where you have to navigate around a map to initiate battles (but there is an idle element going on in the background.) Also, it doesn't smack you in the face with monetization everywhere you look. I guess the worst thing I could say is the translation is a bit rough but it seems like the norm for these kinds of these games these days. I feel like whoever the people are who translated it machine translated it and never asked a native speaker if the language was correct. Angel Legion on Steam STORE.STEAMPOWERED.COM I had to look up what an idle game is because I was unfamiliar. I watched a gameplay video of this, and I gotta say that I really like the look of the angels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm doing the whole MCC in order, but im skipping the first because I've already beat it too many times, and it honestly doesn't hold up gameplay wise. I know that game beat for beat. Im holding off on Infinite until coop and/or forge drops. Honestly, I forgot just how good Reach was after the trash that was Halo 4. I hadn't played it since release. One thing I don't miss, clicking thumb sticks to zoom weapons! Awesome. Sounds like a good plan and then end it with Infinite when coop is available. Yes, Reach was awesome! I just played 2 hours more of Infinite and its so much fun. The bosses give a great challenge, too. Just a fantastic game. My stomach felt halfway decent while playing so I'm holding off going back to the hospital. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5timechamp Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Tunic.. the combat is a bit undercooked.. but its “mysteries” about its world are so good and the game so enjoyable… but holy crap parts of the quarry were frustrating as hell.. Right now stuck in the big battle at the cathedral …very enjoyable game and world but I think im missing out on many mysteries too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Chief jumps from the ship in the beginning of the game and it's a cool thrill. But games like Spiderman take that to a new level. Weirdo!

Best Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Instead of me created a separate topic I'll just ask here. I'm very curious in how long your gaming sessions usually last. For me, most games and days, it's 2 hours max then I need to stop. There have been exceptions with games like Elden Ring where I played 5 hours straight. On average, it's 2 hours.

Phaseknox Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I started playing Blue Fire, it’s a somewhat cartoonish third person action adventure platformer. It’s kind of a mix of Mario 3D, Zelda and even a little Dark Souls. It’s fairly challenging right out of the gate, but plays tight and responsive which is necessary for its platforming which there’s a lot of. Based on what I’ve played of it so far the combat and adventuring somewhat take a backseat to the platforming. I was hoping for it to be more of an adventure game, but it’s primarily a 3D platformer with some combat encounters and level exploration. The combat is serviceable for the few enemies that you occasionally come across, and the levels are interconnected offering some exploration. It’s got a bit of charm to it, and I’ve been enjoying it for the most part. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phaseknox Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 3 hours ago, stepee said: Not overly challenging though? How is the camera? What I played of it wasn’t overly challenging, except for the optional voids which are extremely difficult platforming obstacle courses that reward you with a heart container when you reach the end of them. I completed a couple of the earlier ones, but they get harder as you progress. I’m glad that they’re optional because they start getting really hard really fast, and I personally didn’t have the patience and/or skill to do the more challenging ones. The camera is fine, I never really found it to be an issue. However, I did stop playing the game because it takes place in one big floating castle environment that feels like a continuous dungeon crawl with maze-like interconnecting levels that I kept getting lost in and couldn’t figure out where to go next. There’s no map, so it’s easy to get turned around and run into dead ends. This was unfortunately a dealbreaker for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Best Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Started up Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart. I put in just over an hour this morning and will be playing more today. Obviously the visuals are amazing but I do find the game pretty fun. I never was really into this franchise but this will get beaten. Did I mention the visuals are amazing? I chose to play this because I know I can beat it before Saints Row this Tuesday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CastletonSnob Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I'm playing Kirby Super Star (The SNES original). I decided to see how many bosses I can beat in The Arena with no abilities. I can beat Combo Cannon, Dyna Blade, King Dedede, one of the Mid-Boss All-Stars, Heavy Lobster, Kracko, and Lololo and Lalala without any abilities. But not in one run.

stepee Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I didn’t realize the Genesis Captain America and Avengers game was a port of an arcade game so I played through that (the arcade version). It’s very good. The characters are smaller than other beat ‘em ups at the time but the backgrounds are great and the game is super fun and not overly cheap.
