They should bring Battleborn back, and release it on November 19th, since so few games are coming out that day for whatever reason. 😉

Was really considering buying this until I read this mature content disclaimer: No "Porno-Boobies" no sell. Back to Stellar Blade I go.
theres no Porno-Boobies or anything that prevents u from streaming this game on broadcasting website

Did you know that Konami published what is easily the most graphically impressive shoot 'em up of all-time and barely anyone has played it, let alone heard of it? It was given away for free on Epic at release. The game is called "CYGNI: ALL GUNS BLAZING". www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ea6...

One of the best platform run-and-gunners this side of Contra and Metal Slug. Great '80s pulp sci-fi vibes, gorgeous sprites, varied bosses. Just good all the way through. The roguelike prequel/spinoff, Huntdown: Overtime is shaping up nicely in early access, too.

Whole lotta games journalists appalled by this person selling this. I’m more appalled by the amount of people that think getting sent stuff like this is good and not glazing and a form of bribery that should be rejected, and also disclosed. A lot of people telling on themselves inadvertently rn 👀

It’s wild to see games journalism become just as bad as TV news in America where they can’t help but give air to the worst opinions from literal incel cretins as if they should be treated as serious or even given any weight at all. Who does this benefit??? Gamergators and Polygon ad revenue.

As someone with over 8000 hours in Destiny 2, let me tell you the worst thing you can ever do is trust Bungie. Just ask all the Destiny 2 developers it laid off. Who exactly is going to be working on this unvaulting, and are they AI slopping it?

PlayStation could do the ‘funniest’ thing ever and make it so the unvaluted Destiny content is exclusive to it’s platforms, and allow players to migrate there progress there to play. Considering how things have been going over there, and the fact the game already had timed exclusive PS content…

We live in a golden age of statements from video game companies that sound like estranged family explaining that they know they fucked up, they’ve worked on themselves, and they’re gonna do better now. And it’s only been a month since they told everyone to go fuck themselves and did a burnout.

Everyone saying “I’ll just pirate stuff” get ready for anti-piracy to be a big topic sooner than later. When people stop subscribing to all these dog shit services, they’ll blame piracy and with this admin laws will become even more oppressive.

I thought Control was real bad, so I don’t put much faith into reviews of the sequel. The combat of the original was so bad and repetitive I turned on one-hit kill assist mode about 3/4th through it. Remedy’s games try to pretend they are some deep Lynchian story, but it’s just weird keys jingling.

I’m somewhere between 5-10hrs into Control Resonant & 16% done according to PlayStation’s metrics. I have no plans to finish it. It has been a boring, discouraging slog to play. It’s like the Control IP was sold off & someone else said let’s make it open world & failed in all the ways you’d expect.

How did Kernel Hearts get a Fortnite skin? Like this game feels like it should be early access at best, not making a cameo among some of the most popular IPs in existence.
