KH1 got camera issues?
Welp
Yeah, that'll more than hold you over. You got some good picks there. Ratchet and Clank is a good introduction to the franchise if you've never played one. Not the series best but it gets the job done.
I still need to try out Resident Evil myself.
lol, nice gifJimbo wont allow none of that to happen.
As much as I want the PS5, hell as much as I want info about the PS5, I'm fine with any delays related to the Coronavirus because we have a global health emergency on our hands. It'll be funny watching people more concerned about video games lose their minds though.

Yooo these gifs are OD, haha.
If you got any common sense this is what you should think about it. But unfortunately gaming is more important than anything for some.
I don't think sony would be too effected if both next gen consoles where delayed. They have such a great lineup this year for the ps4 and could have one last finale push in the holiday season. For ms on the other hand the next gen can't come soon enough.
Pretty much any AAA studio you can think of. Chinese studios do a lot of asset creation for them.
They do a lot of asset work for AAA games. I'm pretty sure ND uses them a lot, but pretty much every AAA studio does. Though those studios exist outside of China too, a lot in South East Asia too.
From what I know asset creation is spread all over. Some in China, India, and plenty in SEA.
So I'm not exactly worried.

You can be disappointed in a potential next gen delay and understanding of the circumstances at the same time...
I think they both need it if January NPD is anything to go on. A permanent drop to $199 would help sales but thats cutting into profits.
Don't get your hopes up it won't be $399. It will be $499
Yes welcome back Much.
At the end of the day, for a console I'm going to be using for the next 7 years, a $100 is not gonna break the bank. I've wasted more money than that on games I've hated.
I just think for Sony and consoles in general, we've entered a new shift to how they make money. With PS1, PS2 and mostly PS3, its been money from primarily retail games and them getting a cut.
Now its subscriptions, rise of digital games, cloud gaming, microtransactions, midgen refresh, games on pc, etc etc.
Sony probably makes a fuckton more money per user than they have ever before.
Dunno, we'll see.
Dreams had just a 20% sales decline in its 2nd week in the UK https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2020-02-23-uk-charts-bayonetta-and-vanquish-return-to-top-ten
And my momentary joy is gone XD
Do keep in mind that both Yakuza and Darksiders nosedived into the 40s in the chart on only their second week. So, at least Dreams (15th place) is holding on nicely (regardless of how many copies sold that translates to)
I'll take it as a win fuck it
Congrats media Molecule you made a game of the generation
That's a good hold, even if 1st week number might be not high
Thank you. <3
That's perfect, especially with delays incoming.

I really don't get the love for Platinum..
I bought Vanquish today because it's one of the few games of theirs that I've not at least tried, and I've heard good stuff about it.
But it's gotta be one of the more boring third person shooters I've ever played, sure bullet time is sweet, but all the weapons are just boring and most enemies are just different types of boring robots.
That the game is just in different shades of grey doesn't help it either.
At this rate I'm sure I won't buy another Platinum game until it's like half the price, because more often than not I just end up being disappointed in them.

Unless they make changes to the product to make it cheaper to produce.
I'd expect a drop to $249 instead of $199, though.
if you play vanquish like a third person cover shooter u lawst
The color isn't appealing to me either.
I do want to buy Bayonetta though.
I'm not, I don't usually like traditional cover shooters so I usually just buy ones that try something different. I'm trying to play it like Doom or Uncharted, just be on the move at all times,
But.. I guess it's just not for me because I'm thinking of just deleting it and playing something else instead.
Yes I bought that as well, but then the Bayonetta games are the only Platinum games I enjoy. Even if it's just for the gameplay, music and nothing else.
That's unfortunate. Vanquish in my opinion is the best game Platinum has dropped so far.
What are you not liking about it so far?
Vanquish is largely mediocre. It has good movement and some solid bosses and that's about it. Terrible level design, medicore encounters, a dumb story basically waste anything interesting it does with movement and combat.
It's a whole lot of meh accentuated by a few exciting moments.

Sadly most if it I guess?
The overall design of the game is probably the biggest offender.
The main character looks very cool but all other stuff are either just very boring or generic.
The colour pallette is just different greys so far, but I guess it's a last gen game so that might have something to do with it.
The story and characters are just meh, but it's platinum so I didn't expect anything else.
And like I said, while the bullet time stuff is cool I just don't find the weapons to have any sort of impact and the enemies themselves are just boring robots in different shapes. And more often than not there's either some stupid cover or AI soldiers in the way of you whenever you actually try to do some cool stuff. The movement is pretty janky as well? Or maybe I just haven't gotten used to it yet.
I'm just probably gonna put the game on easy and rush trough it tommorow instead because then it'll at least count towards that PlayStation thingy where you have to play different games and get throphies.
Not even the music has been anything special yet, that's something that I usually think Platinum nails.
I don't understand the conversation, lol.
"I like your jacket!"
"How do you know about it?"
"I work there."
The thing with Platinum is that their output varies in quality WILDLY depending on who is in the director's chair.
Just look at Nier
Yoko Taro and his team have proven to be unique storytellers and produce some incredible soundtracks, so they brought something special to what would have been a cookie cutter Platinum game in Nier Automata.
When Gabby said that she liked the girls jacket, the girl correctly understood her to mean that she liked it because it was TLoU related. So, when Gabby responded that she works there in response to being asked how she knew about it, the girl slowly realized that there "there" she was referring to was Naughty Dog.
I've been playing God of War 2018 again and during the opening credits of the game I saw Jeremy Davies' name popping up, completely forgetting that he was in it as well, which leads me to my question.
Does anyone now why he was completely removed from the marketing of the game? I've never seen him in any of the press tour junkets or other interviews and he wasn't in the documentary either. Even then I thought it was really weird since his character is such an integral part of the plot.

He was around for marketing as well
Huh. Thank you! The documentary was the last thing I saw about the game and really didn't remember him being in it (might be wrong as well), probably clouding my memory of the rest of his involvement in the marketing.
I just had the first fight against his character again and was reminded how much I enjoyed his performance. God, this game is so good.
