This article just makes me sad again that the Sony of old is gone now. Leaving aside King’s Field they pretty much kickstarted the Soulsborne genre. ICO was heavily influential: Environmental storytelling, companionship-based gameplay and a non videogame-y art style. There are so much more examples like rhythm games…

Changing perspectives in the way that game did was quite a feat to pull off. It was definitely one of the better revenge plots I encountered in any media. Fireflies not being that sympathetic is not a flaw in my opinion, as in real life when there’s a struggle between factions there’s seldomly one you would consider…

While I get the complaints about the price tag - why is it so hard for people to wait for a game they didn’t even expect or want to enter a sale?

Which antagonist do you even mean? At the end of the game there really is no antagonist left. Or is there? What makes TLOU Part II so great is that it defies expectations of what it is about. But the impact of its storytelling needs at least half of its playing time to develop so sorry for you for missing out on this…

A new Pokemon, a new Zelda, a new Splatoon, how refreshing Nintendo.

I had so much fun watching this and felt like a 12 year old again. I’m actually sorry for everyone not being able to do this anymore without having to pick everything apart.

I usually subscribe for a month, play the 1 or 2 games I want and then unsubscribe again. If that really works for MS I’m fine with that as I was able to play Psychonauts 2 for a tenner and can now go back to my PS5 until something worthwhile pops up again like one of those major exclusives. Can’t wait to play through…

Will we ever get a Xbox Series E?

God of War, GT7, Horizon 2 and Ratchet & Clank don’t do anything for you? Deathloop, Ghostwire Tokyo? Elden Ring, Stray? Resident Evil Village? Nothing?

They do have two teams. One finished Uncharted Lost Legacy while the other was already working towards TLOU2. I guess we will see a first teaser this year to keep up the momentum. I have to admit that I’m ready for another Uncharted again (yeah, I’m that dull). These games feel like vacation to me.

And then there is me who never had a problem with any Playstation or Xbox controllers, save for maybe the original Xbox controller which was just too big. Played games for several hours on all consoles and never had the thought “Oh, this stick should be placed differently”. I just have them in my hands, play and never…

SSD is faster, controller has more features, the audio department is more sophisticated. And then there is Sony showing off something like Horizon 2 which really looks like next-gen while Microsoft is embarrassing themselves with Halo Infinite. I will probably get multiplatforms on Series X but I really don’t think of…

Just played through Ori and the Will Of the Wisps and it obviously loads assets for a few seconds everytime you teleport from one location to the next. Every game has to do this when you *really* change locations, last I played through was The Witcher 3 which had loading times even on a SSD because it obviously wasn’t…

Regarding that list, what’s at the bottom?

It's a capable developer for sure so I'll definitely have a look when it comes out, especially considering I have seen that movie over a dozen times.

In the year 2014 (the last year I found statistics for) it was actually only 6 dead by gun in Japan. And 33.599 in the US. That’s why I would NEVER move to the US. The healthcare - failed. Moral integrity of the government - failed. Healthcare - failed. Economics may be fine (on the surface) but for me the US is a…

I have a WiiU and a PS4 so it’s all kinda underwhelming considering the competition releases lots of actually new games this year. But it makes sense for Nintendo looking at the WiiU’s sales and how excited everyone gets every time Nintendo satisfies their gaming nostalgia.

I remember sharing that feeling of total hopelessness when that giant, terrifying creature were walking above them. It really seemed like there was no place left to go and I totally bought that bleak ending. Maybe it would have been more believable if the twist hadn’t happen just a few minutes after but I guess that…

We are so close to a point that fake videos can’t be identified anymore that people have no choice but to follow their own beliefs. Russia’s ideology has shifted from propaganda to just demolish the idea of truth and Trump certainly had its share in this process too. There’s no common narrative anymore and the…

You will ask yourself that question even the first 1-3 years of them growing up sometimes. But then. I always had a meaningful life without kids, I don’t need them to feel “whole” like some do. But they are just so amazing, their view on the world, the innocent fun they have, they change you in a good way. You will…
