Seriously! I count my blessings and good health, and mourn those we’ve lost, and commiserate with those they’ve left behind. Gone too soon!

I love the Zelda series, it’s one of two franchises that turned me on to gaming, and one of my favorite franchises of all time.

Well, that’s certainly a stance of subjectivity. I have 17 PS5 games on my shelf here, so I’d consider it a wildly successful launch with a breadth of experiences that I’ve enjoyed thus far.

Initially, I did too...but for the same reasons Taran outlined, and the fact that the demo was a lot of fun, I got over it. Immortals being the series name, and Fenyx Rising simply being the entry in the series (should it succeed), is a much more engaging naming convention.

I think anchoring the pandemic as the reason is simply highlighting how unprepared the teams at Microids & PlayMagic are to accept accountability for launching a poor product that had no right in launching this year. This is not a fully baked title, let alone a title worth more than $30, even if it were complete...and…

Can we just get this in book form? Thanks!

Right there you with you Ash...I’ve kept them all, and it’s a curious attachment at that in regards to how people view all other tech packaging as relatively disposable. Gaming, however, is something entirely different to me. I can’t pin it, but there it is...and there it will remain. #SavingThatBoxForLife

I really want to like this, it has everything 12-year old me would love from the likes of Sonic & Nights Into Dreams...but the run cycle on the characters is so, awkwardly stiff.

I’ll probably still get it...probably.

Isn’t this also coming to PC & PS4?

I’d say that completely, and utterly dismantles the value of this hardware to nothing more than a knock-off, which it most certainly is not. Read up a bit on what it actually does. It’s not simply a GBA, it improves literally everything about each of the platforms it aims to support. It’s an archival piece of tech…

It was offered a really solid SP Campaign, and I’ll agree, the multi-player endgame stuff was a bit stale, but not at all as bad as many would have you believe. That said, the moment they announced a free upgrade to PS5 my group hit the breaks to wait it out for the new hardware.

I guess I’m a bit confused. With the amount of crossover we’ve already seen, why wouldn’t it be a shared universe? It’s no accident Abstergo is in Watchdogs. I mean...the bread crumbs are there without the need to be so blatant about it, and that’s what makes it so great.

Perhaps I’m in the minority here, but as it relates to my gaming habits, I’m not likely to start a game on one platform and then move to another. Yakuza Like a Dragon is of specific concern, but that’s one game, and one I’ll likely finish PRIOR to its PS5 iteration. The rest I will be playing, at the outset, on the…

Unfortunately the controlled environment of a cutscene really isn’t the benchmark here. The 60fps gameplay video definitely is.

Which is to say that the old Peter didn’t exactly look like a 23 year old?

Okay WB...for your Portkey games, and particularly Hogwart’s Legacy, in which players can create their own character, allow for inclusion in the process. Allow for players to create trans wizards. Allow for players to create gender fluid wizards. Allow players to define & identify how they choose in one big middle…

Happy it wasn’t another Fire Emblem character...so...pleasantly surprised?

Which would match the 23 year old Peter that written in the game...and Ben Jordan’s age as well.

But Peter is 23...as is Ben Jordan (the new Peter Parker). By all accounts, that age would still make him an experience Spider-Man, but maybe not late career.

That’s not going to cut it. Given I’ve pre-ordered a physical release on PS4, they need to address what that means for consumers like me who are buying a PS5 & this game within the same week. Given so many companies have come forward with a clear upgrade path, SEGA’s lack of support for anything but digital is a bit…
