I got lucky with a milf Wednesday night.

I just happened to get queue in Sony Direct and when I was up I could’ve clicked the console but scrolled down and clicked on digital instead. When I got to checkout I proudly clicked purchase. It was a gay old time yet I didn’t eat any weiners at a picnic with my dAd on that day! Lol

eb games was not selling ps5s online and canada was locked down for about a month at some point last winter. i went to eb games on the first day they opened after the lockdown (since they had probably stocked up during the lockdown) and got my hands on one

fukkers forced everyone to buy a second controller, which reminded me why i had not shopped at eb games in over 5 years

RE8 looks and works absolutely incredible on PS4. Doesn't have ray tracing etc - I'm not a graphics nut so I don't know all the bells and whistles but it's easily one of the best looking games on PS4. And unlike some system-pushing games like Control, it's been rock solid performance with surprisingly quick load times. Amazing what kind of performance Capcom was able to get out of last-gen systems.

Sony could honestly have waiting another year to release the PS5 (it's hard enough to get one they practically did huehue).

How fast is the loading on ps4? On ps5, going from the dashboard to playing is probably the fastest I’ve ever experienced in any game.

Loading from death is about the same as Bloodborne srs. During normal gameplay there haven't been loads at all - I assume it's going on in the background during the many, many scripted scenes.

EDIT: just opened the game for the night. Initial load from clicking load game to gameplay was 23 seconds

[2010JW]

I know that it isn't PS related but reps for those who recommended Vikings. Finally finishing season 1 and it's legit.

I keep reading PS5 shortages will go even into 2022 smh

Imagine they just released the system and controllers in that black. White is so disgusting.

spiderman miles morales is probably the only game from insomniac that has really disappointed me. I think im nearing the end

- chit characters
- chit dialogue
- excessive amounts of pretentious techy chit
- way too short (i think main story will end up being less than 6 hours)
- the ratio of grinding side activities to main story is excessive. if you only play the main story, you will not get enough skill points and tokens to unlock a significant amount of skills/gadget upgrades/suits
- the villains suck
- the price of the game is inexcusable for the amount of content it offers. 90% of it is grinding side activities. glad i borrowed it from a friend

7/10 at most for me. if any of you guys wanna play it, then wait for a deeeeeep sale

EDIT: the best developpers have been so disappointing lately (insomniac, cdpr, naughty dog). hopefully that trend ends with ratchet and clank

[Deathstroke]

First time looking deeper into muscle milk... you can get protein powder with caffeine mixed into the powder now? Damn! You bodybuilders are getting spoiled aren’t you? Lol well I’m getting some for me too to add flavor and protein to my smoothies. Caffeine or coffee powder (?) mixed in the protein powder!!!!

[Cinderblock]

Starting Mass Effect Legendary Edition. Hnnnnghh time for some hard nostalgia.

I disagree with everything except that the story sucks, but I am not into comic books so I knew that wasn't going to hit for me going into it. Miles Morales does combat and overall game performance top notch, and that is where it shines IMO.

I am not butthurt about cost, but I got it with Spiderman Remastered and the two experiences together with all Spiderman DLC was well worth the cost for me, someone who never played Spiderman. Yea, probably wouldn't pay 40$ for MM on it's on, but waiting for a sale is always consumer decision, not something to be angry about IMO. Most games drop well over 50% during sales in just a year.

For me I am very happy I bought it.

i had already played the first spiderman and all its dlc before playing miles morales so i'm looking at miles morales alone and as a sequel. there's no way to justify the price tag if you are someone who, like me, had already played the previous spiderman and all its dlc and only wanted play morales. the fact that you can't buy morales on its own sucks. if they had done with morales what naughty dog did with uncharted lost legacy (shorter game, cheaper price tag), then I would have been fine with it

you are right regarding combat and performance (dem loading times), but they both apply to the first spiderman on ps5. so as a sequel, i really don't see what it offers that the first spiderman didn't (other than venom powers, but then again you have less gadgets). in fact, it's a step back in pretty much every way.

You can buy it on it's own. What is it, $10 more than Lost Legacy was at launch?

To be clear, MM alone isn't worth 50$ to me, but 90%+ of games aren't worth their launch price to me.

oh i didn't know that. my friend had told me you had to get the bundle...

just looked up its price and it's $65 CAD on PS4, which is $5 than the original spiderman when it launched on ps4. still overpriced as hell

[iBryan]

Returnal is brutal but fun af. It gets easier if you play it smart, but very unforgiving if you underestimate any area you walk into.

[Deathstroke]

I’m glad returnal has been well received and fans are enjoying it. It’s like my first Ps5 exclusive where I’ll wait for price drop. Not new, But will still buy the game down the road. Kind of like I expect the next god of war to be. But maybe I’m wrong. It would need to outdo the 2018 game in every aspect.

Naughty Gods strike again .... Time to get it now mgt*******.



Shame that they didnt do more with it though ... Although if sony is being cheeky, I bet they repackage a definitive edition with rtx + dual sense and sell it for like 40 bucks lel

For an FPS boost? Nah, I'm still holding out for more.

However, Naughty Dog director of communications Arne Meyer adds, "The team has been digging into the PS5 hardware and the possibilities it unlocks since launch last year and we’re excited about what the future holds. This patch is just the first step of working on the PS5. We’ll let you know when we’ve got more news to share!"

Returned back to AC V for the new DLC. A 10/10 whole new country. Didn't expect it to be this much content.

Just started the DLC. Nice to be back as Eivor after playing Odyssey while I was waiting for it. Just lol at them adding a “gender fluid” character though. Pretty sure that concept didn’t exist back then.

[2010JW]

AC Valhalla will be my next game for sure. Vikings has got me wanting to play it. barely on s3

I'm at 206 hours 12 mins and 5 seconds.... can only imagine what this looks like on PS5. The PS4 Pro is nice but to much worldly detail to load constantly at 30fps.

[LieutenantGains]

I put in 130 hours in Valhalla on PS5, one of the best and most gorgeous games I've played in years IMO.

Haven't played it on PS5 yet. Maybe I'll have to pop it in after I finish Days Gone. I got a little burned out on it before I got my PS5. Not sure how much time I put into it on PS4, but probably over 100 hours lol.

[Coal Man]

Is Valhalla that good? I remember seeing a bunch of mixed comments about it.

So I'm guessing these are the "must plays" currently.

RE8
Valhalla
Mass Effect Legendary


Sounds right?

IMO Valhalla is "good" but I wouldn't say its great...its a bag of mixed berries..you're gonna love parts of it and hate parts of it..its absolutely BEAUTIFUL, lore is amazing but theres too much filler content IMO...like yeah you CAN log 100+ hours easily but i completely burned out near the end of the game. I'm not the type to complain about content but when it just feels added on to add hours its just a drag. This is coming from a huge AC fan.. black flag and origins were still better to me

Do you like the franchise? For me, I give zero fuks about the overarching story or the modern day stuff. I really enjoyed Valhalla though because I find the setting very interesting. The setting makes these games imo. If you are into Vikings or have ever watched shows like Vikings or The Last Kingdom, you’ll probably enjoy it.
