As if customizing the character to look like Regina George’s wardrobe malfunction wasn’t embarrassing enough, the weird options don’t end there. There are a ton of ridiculous mods that have quickly been built for the game, but for the first time ever, they might not actually be as ridiculous as what’s in the actual g
Another problem comes down to hype, as the hype train for certain games builds and builds until it can’t live up to players’ expectations. However, one thing many of the games have in common is that though they all had poor releases, many of the problems have been ironed out by now, and they’re now decent games for the most p
One of the biggest selling points of Cyberpunk 2077 leading up to its release was just how involved Keanu Reeves was. Cyberpunk is one of the many video games Reeves has appeared in , but he’s never been so associated with a game than he has with 2077 . In the game, Reeves plays Johnny Silverhand, has long dark locks, and wears a black vest. One gamer hilariously created a character in Skate 3 that looks almost identical to Silverh
‘Anti-consumer’ is a phrase used a lot in gaming, and not always accurately. It’s not anti-consumer that Nintendo doesn’t support Smash Melee tournaments, for example, and while locking story content behind DLC is awfully money grubbing, I’m not sure it’s technically ‘anti-consumer’. Cyberpunk 2077 on PS4 undoubtedly is, however. It’s a PS4 game being sold on PS4 while the PS4 makers tell you not to play it on the PS4. I know we’re all bored of talking about Cyberpunk 2077 by now, but this seems to be sneaking under the radar. It’s disgraceful that our industry allows it, and it’s a worrying sign of the growing divide between the players and the suits out to make a quick b
Outrage is pretty common in gaming, and it feels wrong to be encouraging it, especially around a game as toxic as Cyberpunk 2077. For the record, I don’t care for the game. While it would have been fascinating to see how the game itself and the discourse around it would have been different if it came out bug free, it still would have had its issues. Bugs or no, Cyberpunk 2077 is a game with a very binary perspective on gender that trades on a mostly superficial view of trans people , a horribly misogynistic view of women and sex workers , fridges one of its strongest female characters, and contained a (now patched out) racist m
The facts are very simple – this is a PS4 game we’re being told not to play on the PS4. Scratch that, it’s a triple-A PS4 game with a huge hype cycle and massive marketing campaign that we’re being told not to play on PS4. You can still buy it, of course. I don’t know if the PS Store can detect the difference between a PS4 and a PS4 Pro, but putting out a tweet essentially saying “you can buy this, but don’t,” is horrifically anti-consumer. There are definitely players who are going to buy this on their regular PS4s – PS5s are notoriously hard to get and for literally every other game, the standard PS4 works. I know, I had the base version of the console last gen and had zero issues with its performance aside from it running a little loud. These players will be buying it because if they want to play Cyberpunk 2077, they have no other options, and they might not have even seen the tweet telling them not to. It’s reasonable for a player to assume that if a game is available to buy on the PS4, it will work on the PS4. We should be outraged that CDPR and Sony are selling these folk an unplayable experie
While Cyberpunk 2077 is back on the PS Store, we’re being advised not to buy it on PS4. I don’t mean that someone has done a tech analysis and concluded that it runs a bit worse on PS4 than, say, Xbox – I mean we’re literally being told ‘don’t buy it on PS4,’ by both CD Projekt Red itself and PlayStation. Instead, both recommend using the juicier PS4 Pro, or just straight up using a PS5. It’s worth noting that the game is not out on PS5 – the PS4 version is compatible, but the PS5 version of the game, along with the Xbox Series X/S versions, is still in the works on top of the game’s still ongoing bug fixes and DLC. Thanks to the problems at launch, we still don’t know when any of this stuff is going to arr
This user makes light of the game’s name and that it came out decades early, pretending that the title has the same format as FIFA or Madden games where the year of its release is in the title. What makes it even funnier is that the game was actually delayed by ye
Led by Saburo Arasaks, they have made Japan the top of the world in just about everything —so much so, that even losing a fourth corporate war with Militech hardly did anything to stop its influence in Japan. Knowing what strings to pull, what to invest in and more have made Arasaka and Japan a true juggernaut on the world st
No Man’s Sky was a victim of hype, as it was possibly the most talked-about indie title in gaming history. Being a case of not following through with their promises, which is a problem that happens way too often in the video game industry, Https://Earnshortener.com Hello Games promised the world, or more specifically, the infinite unive
