He says in the video that they pride themselves on open communication and transparency with gamers. In a video released over a month after release. Not before release, when his words would have meant something.

No problems. Carry on.

I think you might have missed the sarcasm in parksonian’s comment.

===========>The Joke

I would be interested in this game, but I can’t morally do that now, knowing that the company making it is partially owned by the Saudi prince, a perpetrator of many human rights abuses and a murderer.

Not to rain on the parade of people that might be looking forward to this game - I happen to enjoy the King of Fighters series myself - but if you buy SNK games in the future, you will be supporting actual murderers.

Another thing to add to this list is the ability to upload/download save data by pressing Options on an individual game. You could do this on PS4, but on PS5 you have to go into a separate menu for all of your games.

Thanks for this. This stuff needs to be highlighted in every review of every Ubisoft game going forward until something more is done. It needs to be a factor in your purchasing decisions of their games. Even if you decide it doesn’t bother you, it needs to be at least in the back of your mind.

Yeah, I’m waiting fer PS5 to play a New Game+ of Tsushima, and I already own God of War and Horizon but never took the time the play them yet. Makes waiting fer price drops on PS5 games easier when I have a backlog of PS4 games that’ll play better when I get the new console.

Well, given how different the PS3’s hardware architecture was from, well, anything else, it’s a good chance that the remastering team had to build a number of things from scratch in order to get it to run on PS4, let alone add in higher-res textures and stuff. Given that load times weren’t necessarily a big topic of…

It seems to me that one of Sony’s first party studios (or their R&D department) have come across a way to decrease load times without the need of an SSD, and are sharing that among the studios. Ghost of Tsushima was the first major example of that. A big open world that loads incredibly fast.

I’m curious about how the transforming works as well. If done right, it could be a nice bit of strategy. I can picture cars being able to move more spaces, flying bots able to reach higher ground, tanks having extra attack, Ratchet having healing abilities, etc, etc. Hopefully the developers though of this as well.

Really hoping this one turns out to be good. A Transformers strategy game sounds right up my alley.

Well, in an equally pedantic defence of the poster, Jovovich’s character doesn’t seem to fighting the diablos. More like posing in front of it. Maybe a team-up with the monster to fight another, bigger monster? Jurassic World-style? Might be just the kinda dumb this movie would try to do.

From your lips to Andrew Wilson’s ears, my friend.

Yeah, like I said, EA doesn’t want to spend money on doing anything like that properly. Too busy raking in the money from FIFA Ultimate Team with little effort or resources, rather than go through the trouble of remaking classics just to appease a few nostalgia whores like ourselves.

After reading your comment, I had to look up an old review to see if you were right. Seems that I was getting both of those games confused myself. From what I now understand and remember, races were chosen from a menu, and based on what you’ve unlocked. But there is also a open world to drive around in, it just didn’t…

I was very disappointed with the Criterion NFS games. Compared to the Burnout series, I found them sluggish and unexciting. Picture Burnout Paradise with cars that feel 10x as heavy with no destruction modelling, in a bland open-world without the character of Paradise City. But I do remember it looking better than…

I’ve got a PS4 Pro, and I can’t understand how they can’t get a PS3 game to run at 4K60 on newer hardware. Hopefully they built in the option to get that on PS5. I won’t hold my breath though.

Yeah, I agree. Would’ve much preferred a remaster of Hot Pursuit 2. I felt the same when they put out Burnout Paradise. Would’ve appreciated a Burnout 3 remaster instead. EA doesn’t seem to want to put in the work to update PS2-era games, just up-res last-gen games (or bring over existing PC versions).
