All this talk about God of War. Seems that EVERYONE is playing it.
And here I am finally playing Mad Max since the free PS Plus deal. Its nice to not ever buy games at full price (except fighters), but I am always years behind regarding hot gaming topics.
I’ll probably get to this game in 2-3 years, while everyone else is talking about Death Stranding or something.
Is Kojima just betting the farm on Death’s Stranding in terms of his reputation? That game seems like it is just so far “out there” that it will either be a massive success or a catastrophic failure.
I still am having trouble with the controls in God of War. It’s not that they are bad or anything, it’s just that there is so much shit to control with all of the shoulder buttons, that I get confused and mix shit up. The different combinations to do the specials and holding buttons while pushing another, then pressing the face buttons to do other specials or to get the axe to fly back to you. I wouldn’t say it’s clunky just I’m not used to it yet. I played for like an hour last night and didn’t progress the story at all, but I did some “side quests” I guess you would call them, which were still fun as shit and earned me a bunch of experience. I also met these 2 enemies that I was hardly doing ANY damage to and they kill me in one hit. I almost beat them by running and throwing my axe at them for like 7 minutes, but then one of them got me and I died.
Honestly it depends on how much money HE is pumping into it. If it is a bloated art house film mess of a game that doesn’t get traction, he is fucked. It seems he has Sony backing him though so like the guys behind Heavy Rain and Detroit : Become Human, and if those games can get support Kojima should be able to do the same as to not bankrupt his new company on one game.
Xbox owners can get Rekt.
They continued to support a shit company and a shit console despite all the crap MS got exposed for.
There is no Defending Microsoft here, MS did too much to hurt consumer confidence and they canceled too many games to be even redeemable this Console Generation.
Anyone who buys a Xbox than gets butt hurt that there console has no games needs to ether hold MS accountable or stop supporting XBox.
I’ll wait until Sea of Thieves gets more content before diving into it. It’s available in the windows store if your PC can run it. So you won’t be stuck with an Xbone if you just want it for that one game.
Hardware wise uh…not entirely sure how to interpret this since apparently PS4 was the highest console in March but the highest selling hardware was the red and blue Switch? So not entirely certain which is it. But PS4 apparently year to date is at least selling higher than the other consoles this year.
Believe it was stated before that Far Cry 5 is the fastest selling title in the franchise so far and it was enough to put it at no.1 last month.
