Man, reading through this post and all the replies makes me think I made a mistake just playing with the barbarian :(

You’ll be able to do more. That, and, you’ll be able to import the vast array of models, animations, and textures that people have already created for the engine in other games. I can’t even begin to list how many possibilities this opens

But if we start making commercial success the key metric in what deserves an Oscar, then the Oscars become meaningless

Is PSVR2 launching this month? Maybe the HFW drop is to entice a purchase of the VR title, too

you might be better off buying a USB wall plug and plugging it into the wall and than tethering yourself to your entertainment center

Someone please educate me: why is a locking USB-C cable better than a non-locking one? If someone were to trip on it while I was playing, don’t I want it to only pull the cable from the controller, instead of the entire controller from my hands? It would’ve been cooler for them to put a breakaway connector a la…

I know there are significant visual upgrades, but I can’t take the time to stop and appreciate them while I’m in the middle of a game. For me, the biggest impact I’ve felt since moving to the new gen is definitely loading times. It’s a total game changer. Of course, if I hadn’t upgraded I’d be none the wiser, since…

But the PS mobile app lets you get at at least some of your game library while on the go. I know latency is an issue for any twitch-muscle gaming, but having another platform for devs to support could actually hold them back. Having a single platform means better optimization, imo

As someone who only played the very first AC (and liked it well enough), I jumped on Valhalla when it was available on PS Plus Extra expecting that it was the same. It was not, and I got bored really quickly

It’s true that I may have to replace the controller for another reason unforeseen, but based on my history with PS4 and PS3, stick drift is the sole culprit.

I want it because I go through analog sticks like crazy, and I’d prefer to pay $20 to replace the part than $70 to replace the whole controller. The customizations will be nice to have, too, but for the number of controllers I went through with the previous generation, buying the Edge at $200 is still going to be a…

Does your “guy” know he can test positive for months after getting it? Totally within the realm of possibility that he has a common cold with fever, and also carrying markers from his initial bout

Actually, I recall seeing somewhere that the definition of a mass shooting is something like 3-5 victims (doesn’t have to be fatalities). By that measure, I’m actually shocked the number of shootings isn’t higher

Esp for the block of gamers who only ever bought the yearly COD installment to get at the multiplayer. I always enjoyed playing through the story every year, but the rest of my friends were on MP from the get. There was always some catch-up time for me, but I really thought the story mode is what I was actually paying…

Also, the last thing I read about MassMutual’s fine said it was a failure to supervise a bunch of their staff, not just Gill. The initial reports were worded to make it sound like he was the reason for the fine. He was just the most notable member of the group.

Really? I thought this show did its supporting characters justice better than most. Everyone makes their deliberate first impressions on the viewer, and then we got to see their motivations and a little bit of what made them the way they are.  

Have you tried one of those dedicated game controllers for the left hand that has a thumbstick for movement, but with hotkeys along the top?  I was thinking about trying for the easier movement while still giving me the precision aiming of the mouse

That’s interesting. My first reaction after reading about your friend was that he actually got a bargain. All that stuff for less than he would’ve paid for just the console via scalper...which was almost the only way you could get a launch console.  And it’s all under warranty.

It doesn’t “force” the consumer to do anything.  You can always elect to skip a month

And really, limiting purchases to one unit mitigates the scalping worries pretty effectively
