That’s fair, but I didn’t personally know anyone with non-official controllers for any Playstation, so I felt like they weren’t all that popular? I don’t know any actual statistics though.

Compared to what decade? PS3 controllers were $50 at launch, and Dualshock 5 is $70 now. I think DS2 cost about the same as Sixaxis, but even if a bit less, that’s 2x the price, not “5x”.

Part of the reason why I much preferred huge events with many companies, like E3. Shame these are going away.

Man. Is that considered a lot in one sitting? I have a pretty awful case of stress binging, so eating a few packs of gummies or candy along with whole packages of chocolate and multiple packs of chips is really nothing much in one go, so this was a bit shocking to me. Eating a gummy of that size probably wouldn’t even…

I don’t mind at all, was just curious what people found exciting about it.

Yeah, that’s actually an excellent point.

I’m not entirely sure why the game’s getting so much praise, it looks pretty unpolished to me based on both trailers I’ve seen. And the voice recognition system will definitely be barely functional. Even AAA games never use anything like that due to how hard it would be to pull off, I have zero faith in a indie title…

That’s the thing though, bad graphics and bad art direction go hand in hand. Indie games with beautiful art direction usually have fitting, clean graphics, even if there is nothing cutting-edge about them.

Eh, I’m pretty sure you are reaching there. Multiplayer in game is almost always completely separate from campaign thematically. People generally hate Nazis and modern terrorists, but playing as them online is basically the same as playing “the good guys”, you just change the skin. The difference in faction is only…

Seeing as how The Last Of Us Part 2 has Nathan’s ring you can find in a bank vault, I’d say Naughty Dog are in on the joke and have been putting such easter eggs in their games for a while now.

You haven’t taken a single screenshot or video in 6 years? Huh. Figured everyone used them to at least capture occasional bugs or beautiful scenes, even with no plans to share.

Other points are valid, but how tf did it feel cheap? After DS4, DS3 feels like a toy.

Does it though? Still looks like one of the most generic games I’ve ever seen.

Also worth noting that it’s the only loading you’ll see when playing. It loads up the game on launch, and that’s it. You can beat the entire thing and never see a loading screen.

Think about it: do you need to be motivated to brush your teeth every morning? To go to work?

Understandable, and I know that, but still. I expected more life out of it, and they marketed it as more future-proof than usual due to being a “special edition” essentially, yet the very next year Xs got some features that were literally locked from X due to silly reasoning. Felt like a betrayal of sorts.

Sad to not see it on X. That phone was frankly marketed as way more future-proof than it turned out to be, functionality-wise. It’s still super fast and capable.

Pretty sure it’s just spoiled children of filthy rich parents.

Why would you play PS4 on a ultrawide though? It just means pillarboxing on both sides?

I did, and it’s still super buffling. It was an amazing game in 2016 and it still is to this day. Replayed it a couple weeks ago and it’s better than 99% of stuff coming out.
