Spyro better than Ratchet & Clank? Fuck off with your replaying talk, I know your ass has the sequel. Throw a burrito with a michelada in one of the previews for the PS5 reveal so I'll know it was your ass tbh. Also, will PS5 have PS6 forward compatibility?Quote:

Not better, but pretty great anyways. I didn't play the originals on PSX, so this was a great way to see what it was all about. Just good old fun games, reminded me a lot of Jak and Daxter.Quote:

If Cyberpunk and Dying Light 2 hadn't gotten delayed I would have probably bought a 2070 Super or 2060 Super by now, despite all my bitching about Turing being such shit for the money.
Haven't really pushed it much yet. I started to play with some RT here at home, and the idea was to get going on it at the start of the year, but as soon as I came back from the break I had to jump into a plane and head out to a Studio to assist them get a game wrapped up, and it's just been taking all of my time.Quote:

What's more interesting after doing a lot of reading is that you can probably get some RT done on Pascal too (RT shadows, maybe even reflections), and I wouldn't be surprised to see support for that soonerish if that's not already out there.
i only played the original spyro the dragon on ps1... i remember it being quite good. remasters feel worth a pickup to you?Quote:

They're well done, and since it contains all 3 games, they're a decent deal ($30 in Amazon right now, you can probably pick it up for same or cheaper on a PSN deal).Quote:

Man I think looking up benchmarks for Control with RTX last night after this post really cured me right then of the desire to buy a 2070 Super. Even with a $500 gpu you're looking at running DLSS from 720p to get 1080p 60 fps with RTX on high in that game.Quote:

I heard 3 played like shit on PS3 but it was rock solid on PS4. I always wonder if Lost Legacy is worth picking up though. I see it for $10 all the time but wonder if I'd even play it if I bought it since I have a backlog that's going to be really hard to retire. :lolQuote:

I'll probably end up getting the game in Japanese too at some point, but my 日本語 isn't 上手 enough to really play the game enjoyably yet in its native language.
didnt comment on this earlier, but yaaaas.Quote:

- first 2 dragons
- brok's side quests with the ring. the first one has a pretty big arena/battle before facing the soul devourer. the second one has the section with multiple dark elves
- sindri's first side quest with the different rooms
- helheim and niflheim were more of a pain
- aside from side content, the dark elf boss and the magni/modi battle were much harder
i didnt think valkyries were significantly harder, with the main exception being that you could no longer rely on boy's arrows to disrupt the aerial attacks. you have to manually throw your axe
overall, i think playing GMGOW on NG+ was an easier experience, except the valkyries were significantly harder, since i they get different attacks on NG+
scrah its sekiro time. da hellQuote:

Dark Souls I & III still hold up pretty well after playing Bloodborne. They're slower games since they're more defensive but if you liked one there's little doubt you'll like the others too. I can't vouch for Dark Souls II though, as I never played it. Demon's Souls is the game that feels ancient in the series.Quote:

Man 2020 is so fucking crowded with new games. Kind of sucks that Sony is not going to reveal their hand for how the 2020 PS4 games will play on PS5 (eg PS5 performance patches for 60 fps or just run in PS4 Pro compatibility mode?) since obviously it would kill PS4 game sales in 2020 if they said you can run PC level versions of the game on PS5.Quote:
