A bunch of satellite dishes around a sphere in the middle of the room. Between the long run back into that room and the long loading times, it just tested my patience. I’m past it now!

If only somebody had played the game and written down several statements designed to inform others what things were the same and what things were different.

Why even play the game at that point? If you want the story without the investment read a summary.

The “extremely cheap sense of accomplishment” is how you might experience it, but doesn’t represent how other people might feel about it. Reading a synopsis of Control is an insanely reductive way to experience what the game has to offer, and the challenge of the combat is certainly not the shining achievement of that…

Oh dang, they finally added difficulty options? I loved the setting and atmosphere of the game, but dang was the difficulty curve all over the place. The game was super frustrating because of that and I remember I quit right after the credits rolled because I was pretty much burned out on the game. I might reinstall…

According to Wikipedia this is like a more fully fledged remaster - it’s actually the original game code, cleaned up and with some additions (like moves from later games), but all art assets redone(? whatever that means?) in 4K, plus it’s all been ported into unreal engine 4 instead of whatever it was running in…

Ha I did the same thing and refused to do it to. I was like “No! That’s it, you are both done. This doesn’t need to go on anymore”. In that moment I didnt want what I thought could happen happen. I would of been furious.

By the last bit of the game, I was saying, “Ellie, GOOD GOD let it go!” This was followed by many, many, “What in the bloody fucking hell are you thinking?” comments.

That last fight is so poignant, she has every right to be proud of it. Never I had cried while PLAYING before. Usually tears are for cutscenes. But when I had to press square several times to stab Abby, the first time I simply did not. And the game makes you lose so you have to keep on going. I just wanted to end this…

Press X to “put on a fucking mask!”

I disliked this review. It feels so clinical.

At this rate we’re definitely getting a real assassin’s creed japan from ubisoft... and some time in the far future when 2020 is old history, an assassin’s creed Florida with a karen DLC.

Yeah Lev was actually an extremely important character to me. Just to see this kind of representation in mainstream media and have it not shy away from some of the shit we have to deal with was incredibly relieving for me.

Hi, since I’m seeing lots of talk about whether the headline/image are a spoiler, here’s my thinking on that: it’s only a spoiler if you look at Lev being trans as something that’s meant to be a surprise or some kind of dramatic reveal. Years upon years of trans storylines have taught us this (think: The Crying Game,…

The entire game is about misery and suffering.  It would be weird as shit if they had a couple of happy-go-lucky queer characters sprinkled in.

Great piece, I do just love Lev for all the times he saves my ass in the game. It was so nice to have him around, alil bit of yoda character for Abby, but boy oh boy did I care about him by the end, felt a bit like Joel and Ellie from 1, as Abby I woulda torn the world apart to save Lev.  

My PS4Pro was roaring like an F16 jet engine taking off, after changing the original thermal paste (which was poor quality, caked up and poorly applied, covering only 60% of the die) with a quality one from Kyronaut, it’s a day & night differences.
So I would strongly recommend you to replace the thermal paste if your…

I did it about a month ago to my Pro. It’s night and day. I’m convinced the old thermal paste wasn’t even touching the processor chip any more as it was one of those easy apply squares. I would boot up Trials of Mana, a very non-taxing game and instantly the fan would shoot to the highest speed it could go. I scraped…

Ummmmmmm...yeah all day long. My PS4 was horribly loud and I followed an FAQ to disassemble and clean it. Since it required disassembly to the point of separating the heat sink from the CPU you need to clean the up the old and replace the thermal paste (which was crusty and obviously poorly applied when manufactured).

launch pro and TLOU2 was surprisingly quiet compared to other recent titles. FF7 turns it into the usual jet engine but TLOU2 was somewhere in the middle? only time the fans spun up hard was during the crafting bench and some cutscenes.
