Have you played Astrobot yet? I couldn't put it down and platinum'd it and 100% it all over again when my PS5 crashed and erased everything.

Absolutely loved that game when the PS5 arrived last Saturday as it was the first game we tried when we turned it on. Both myself and my son completed it.

Hope they make another game with Astrobot in it

They already have. It's called Astros Playroom and it's a VR game that launched with the psvr.

Astro Bot Rescue Mission is great, but it's tied to PSVR. It's a full blown Astro Bot game. Very fun adventure. I'm sure they'll make a PS5 sequel to Astro's Playground.

He's been dead for 20 ish years so that would have made getting him difficult.

Personally I think Garfield should have been "voiced" by thought bubbles and normal cat sounds. He doesn't speak in the comics, he just "thinks" his response and other animals can read his mind (humans can't, except Jon when needed for the joke to work). None of the animals in the Garfield comic speak beyond normal animal sounds.

Can't say I'm surprised about Forspoken. Can imagine that Sony wouldn't want a big title they have an exclusivity deal on to compete with a first-party juggernaut like Ragnarok, hence the reference to "key partners". Doesn't exactly bolster my confidence in Forspoken either.

Not that the intended audiences overlap, but releasing it the same week as the Dead Space remake probably won't help.

I was determined to play Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl this weekend.

Not only is the game play pretty basic, but I'm playing as Garfield the cat who was unlocked as soon as the game started, and the new voice actor made me think about how nobody should do the voice of Garfield except Lorenzo Music. :shock:

That just makes me think of Bill Murray's cameo from Zombieland. "any regrets?" "Garfield, maybe?"

That one guy who got absolutely bent backwards about Ragnarok coming out this year just experienced his best orgasm.

Was this someone arguing for or against? I hope they were adamant for it, you would have to be brain dead to think it was going to slip out of 2022

Seriously? Even if it's from a years-old game, spoiling that kind of thing isn't cool.

Yeah, I don't know why you would say something like that unless you are just being a jerk. If someone states they haven't finished a game, why explicitly spoil it for them? Yeah, it has been out a long time and it might be already spoiled for them but that is still jerk behavior. Now he robbed him of the very thing he said "blew his mind".

 
God of Bore made me realize just how much I can't stand faux open world games now. There is nothing inherently wrong with the game, but I'm too aware of the invisible walls that confine my path through it. Same thing happened with SW: Fallen Order, where I could not get over the dated design of feeling like I was in an adventure game from the 90's. And post-Elden Ring. . .whoo boy I have zero tolerance for anything I can't naturally explore now.

 
It's funny how when he said he needed to play through the first one, people just immediately knew he was talking about the PS4 one. When I say I still need to play through the first one, I am talking about the one from 2005. That and the rest of series has been in my backlog for ages.

Regardless of how long a game has been out, a spoiler is a spoiler and it's poor to assume everyone already knows it. Scream came out in 1996, so should the killer's identity be spoiled for my kid because it's a 26 year old movie and "everyone should know by now." Doesn't do my kid any good if he hasn't been born yet. It's even worse for games; due to their interactive format and length.  Movies are on average 1.5 to 3 hours at most. Games can require hundreds of hours; people can't be expected to blaze through everything so fast. Okay, I'll play Assassin's Creed for 200+ hours...oops, now I risk being exposed to God of War spoilers. I'll play God of War for X hours, oops, now I'm exposed to Last of Us spoilers.  There's just not enough time to get through everything if people are so quick to spoil things.

Open world games have invisible walls, barriers, or some kind of restrictions too. The maps are just bigger that it will take the player a while to reach that wall or restrictions. I don't think I played any open world games where there are not some kind of walls there. The only game that I can think of that might be truly open world is No Man Sky but I haven't played that game yet to say if that is true or not.

easiest way to get to ignore is through your notifications button on the top right of the page. Make sure you copy the users name first because there are often multiple users with the same username with minor differences and the drop down bar doesn't bring it up if you don't have the near exact wording.

I’m very excited for Robocop. Loved the first two movies, enjoyed the 3rd, and the remake was meh at best.

The studio making the game is the same one that made Terminator Resistance which was awesome and, to me, is the 3rd entry and conclusion to the Terminator Trilogy.

The Terminator -> Terminator 2 Judgment Day -> Terminator Resistance

They have 'natural' barriers like oceans, mountains, raging rivers. . .not perfectly carved paths that offer no deviation or are confusing when it branches. There's a ridiculous divide between a game like GoW and AC Valhalla. I spent 3 hours with BOY; 300+ on Valhalla. Easy answer why.
