Yeah, the Pandora stuff also feels too little, too late. Ghost of Sparta and even Chains of Olympus feel like more successful attempts at introducing characters Kratos cares about only to have them ripped away.
The only way Sony could have a State of Play with more attention than this one is if they do one dedicated to Spider-Man 2 (which could happen!)
2 is excellent, I still think its one of the best games I've ever played. 1 is flawed but I adore the setting, and the ambition of the game so I still manage to spend so much time playing it.
Juggling a lot right now (when I probably shouldn't be). Main thing is suffering through Elden Ring's endgame. Also dabbling in FF Chaos while sprinkling in GT7 as my "chillax" game. Just picked up Triangle Strategy since I'm in the mood for a SRPG to slowly make my way through as well. Still got Forbidden West to finish but I'll probably pick that back up in the summer when I don't have anything else to play. Hasn't been a year this stacked in awhile. Since 2017 maybe?
Wow yeah, spring is even crazier… I'm not sure how the chip shortage is affecting these headsets but it seems like an incredibly fast turnaround. Holiday makes more sense
A handful of us like to geek out about video game marketing campaigns on here. Myself included. We're weird like that.Wow yeah, spring is even crazier… I'm not sure how the chip shortage is affecting these headsets but it seems like an incredibly fast turnaround. Holiday makes more sense
Oof, that explains it.
I think the difference is that I don't remember much of the overzealous hype and praise for stuff like TLOU2, Metroid Dread, etc. specifically calling out and targeting another game with unnecessary jabs and put downs.
I mean, the games came out a week apart. It's understandable that there will be comparisons. Especially since they're both open world games.
Im still not sure Morbius will be a success, but I also didnt expect Uncharted to do half as well as it did. I'd not be surprised if it does well, just not Venom well. Which itself is a success because Venom is this beloved character in the Spidey mythos, Morbius... well I cant really recall all that many good stories he's had through the years aside his hilariously censored Animated version back in the 90s.
I think I read somewhere that pre-order tickets were really good, so it's possible.
Atm my hype is zero for Hogwarts Legacy, considering the DEV. But I'd like to be impressed.
What's the temperature on the Madame Web news? Haven't seen anyone talk about it.
I legitimately didn't know who Morbius was before the trailer (and I still don't, really). All I thought was "so he's like a shitty Batman?"
I have 0 expectations for the movie.
After I finish Horizon, probably a short indie game before moving on to other stuff in my backlog. I'm thinking I'll play Gris. My gf played it recently and really liked it.
Don't know if they operate outside of the state/Indy area, but I really like Greek's Pizza.
Fair enough. I just think it's also understandable that some people will find those constant comparisons annoying.
