Damn I would love to see Bloodborne 2 for this fall or next spring. Speaking of Bloodborne, if you don't have it the PS Store is selling the complete edition with DLC for $21 right now. The DLC alone usually costs $20 and is the best part of the game IMO.

Far Cry 5 in Montana sounds amazing, but I don't trust Ubisoft at all. They haven't put out a good game since Far Cry 4. And even that had some problems. The last 3 years Ubisoft games have had ridiculous hardware requirements without having the graphical quality or smoothness of gameplay to justify it. Like when Far Cry 4 came out, I had the second best gpu money could buy (GTX 970) and there was still some microstutter playing that at 1080p with vsync to 60 fps on. It was a good looking game but it wasn't Crysis 3 or even GTA V graphically. So I'm wondering if GTX 1070 is the minimum you can go to get 60 fps on 1080p high in Far Cry 5.

Man I'd love it if Sony gave us a surprise 2017 launch of Days Gone or God of War. Even if all the interesting shit is put off until 2018, this year has already been so amazing I wouldn't be too mad.

343 failed big time with the campaign of halo 5 and MCC multiplayer but the remaster of H2 was great. 343 has also fired Brian reed so that should help. But I'm a giant halo nerd so I'm biased. But overall I like 343 because halo 4 is my favorite one, they did a good job on the remaster of halo2, I liked halo wars 2 a lot, and the multiplayer in halo 5 is excellent. They definitely have some work to do going forward though

Easily the best game in the genre.

Gameplay wise, its better than uncharted and Tomb Raider tbh.

Weapon system in Ratchet and Clank is amazing but that has always been the case. If you have ever played any of the resistance games you would know the creativity and the fun factor involve in its weapons choice.

Game was 9-10 across the board. I'm not the only guy frolicking about it.

From Software released Demons Souls in early 2009 (though late 2009 in the US), Dark Souls in late 2011, Dark Souls 2 in early 2014, Bloodborne in early 2015, and Dark Souls 3 in early 2016. I don't see why a 2018 release would seem so strange based on From's productivity with this series.

Not a big gamer anymore, but I've been specifically looking forward to this game for two years.

I went and looked for some more gameplay video and Cuphead looks like it's going to be a dog. In some video from a few months ago they showed it as just a sequence of boss fights you pick from a map. :pctoss

Fuck, this game had so much potential but is going to be an epic flop. It completely nails the art style but the game doesn't look fun. What a disappointment, I was expecting so much more.

I think Wolfenstein II is going to be great. I wasn't a fan of Doom mostly because of the setting and story, but the control is pretty responsive and the game performs really well. With a midrange gpu you can easily play Doom at 1440p 60 fps, which is impressive for a game that looks that good graphically. So you move this engine to a game with a much more interesting story line and setting and it should really be something. Though I'd never want to play this kind of game on a console, any FPS is worlds better on PC with mouse and keyboard.

I don't think Sony will do a price drop on the Pro this year other than maybe for the holidays (though it could just be a game bundle instead of a price drop). They don't need to when the XBone X is $500. Gears of War and Halo are both series past their primes and Dead Rising only had one good game back in 06, so their exclusives are too lacking to compete with PS4 and Switch. XBone X is going to be the one getting a price drop IMO.

Holy shit I didn't realized Metro Exodus was about the actual metro game series. :wow

When baseline bum mentioned it I though he meant metroid prime. :lol

Yeah if Metro Exodus turns out good I may have to upgrade my GPU, considering how amazing Metro games are graphically. Though the first two were pretty well optimized, so maybe I won't need one.

Wow, that's crazy to get that kind of support 2.5 years after launch. I wonder how far they are from a sequel. Have you completed The Following yet?

I saw that too but I'm guessing the majority are going to be enemy/weapon/outfit based and not actually adding to the game itself. I really need to finish the following

Exactly.

Did your copy of Nier Automata came with useless DLCs? Mine did.

When I saw it had DLCs to download I thought it would be worth it. Bunch of trash stuff.

I honestly didn't even notice if it did lol I'll have to check that. Didn't nier just release a dlc with more playable content? Or was it a just cosmetic crap

Yeah, costumes, and cometic items from what I've read.

You also have to have beat the game on multiple endings and have chapter select unlocked. Sounds like a chore.

Im sure a couple will be weapons and cosmetic shit, but from their announcement it sounds like they're gonna expand the storyline.. Either way the community is like 100k strong still and its free :tu

Sounds awesome. Looks like we're gonna be able to explore the outside world more in-depth now.

Cry Havoc get in here. Wolfenstein II looks freaking epic.

Will check it out, thanks. :tu

Btw, :lol AMD at moving the Vega launch back. Fuckers. At least Ryzen is epic.

They're having their bacon saved right now by the crypto currency eruption. Not only can they not make enough Rx580s, but Nvidia is also selling out of cards atm.

I picked literally the worst time in the last 15 years to build a new pc. :pctoss

Vega looks like a dog. I'd either buy a 1080, 1080 Ti, or wait for Volta.

Also, I can't imagine AMD is at all happy about ether shooting up in price. When the same happened with Litecoin they ramped up production like hell on Hawaii, only to have the bottom fall out soon after leaving tons of Hawaii chips they had to sell at a loss most likely. I can't imagine they made a cent of profit on R9 290s once the GTX 970 released and the 290s fell in price to $200-$250. The used market was just flooded with Hawaii mining cards dragging down the price of new 290/290x. Gamers couldn't get a hold of Hawaii back when it was murdering the GTX 780 for $100 lower MSRP so no chance to develop customer loyalty with that card.

I think the mining craze is probably why they pushed Vega back to the end of July. That's the last thing they want is those cards selling for $1000+ and then ending up on deep discount on eBay a month or two later once ether dies. Hawaii got a bad reputation for cards dying off early, likely due in no small part to people buying mining cards that had been running at 100% load 24/7 for months and then wondering why their used gpu died so young.

I'm waiting for a Ryzen M-ITX board with wifi before I pull the trigger on a card. That's all that's holding me back right now. No sense in buying a card atm though with prices where they are.

Might work out. But man, the crypto-crazes are just nuts. I hope Vega is a beast -- gamers need someone to push NVidia.

Lacking in what way? You're crazy.

I've only played the second game though. Loved it.

i just felt like it was tedious to play, the second was better than the first, but overall they got boring quickly for me and i didnt particularly like the way the gameplay felt.
