    Oh I completely forgot about that to. That annoyed me as well

    Between him and lake at least they are trying something new with the medium, I have a really soft spot for quantum break because its trying so hard. Outside of that gameplay wise its really enjoyable and a very solid third person shooter, lots of lore and connecting his games into one "Sam Lake" universe while crazy almost works. It falls into that same category as Sunset Overdrive , if it was released on Playstation it would be regarded better

    I didn't mind it. Usually it was during a cutscene or loading screen anyway. The only time I'd think it was maybe a bad idea was if it also gave away that you'd encounter the SKULL unit or something during the mission, where the knowledge you'd encounter them ruined the surprise of a sudden attack.

    To be honest I found it less of an annoyance than the constant forced and excessive lens flare and reflections from shiny things in every cutscene, which was usually also in slo-mo for those few seconds to really emphasise it.

    But Kojima is Kojima, and I dare not question him. As Metal Gear Survive showed, Kojima is truly the only one who can gear those metals.

    I finished Space Marine 2 last night. It was free on ps+ and while it's sat on my PS5 for ages unplayed as I wasn't sure about it, I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was.

    It's basically gears of war. But the Campaign is fully playable as 3 player co-op and isn't too long either but the missions are hefty.

    Ah come on. Brush up on your JD Vance knowledge. I’m taking the mickey that the Trump administration tariffs contributed to this

    No, this is still Biden's PS5 pricing. But Trump will have those prices down in two weeks.

    And in three weeks, if you're wondering why it hasn't been done yet, don't worry. He'll have it done it two weeks.

    Completed mission 4 of Ace Combat 7 last night. Think I'll stick with it, I remember playing it with PSVR and not loving it.

    Halfway through RE9 and while I think its good/close to great I think its been a bit overhyped.

    Playing smaller indie stuff on my new Portal so far and its been amazing. Cloud streaming works seamlessly. Handy when herself wants the TV. Army of Ruin, Space for the Unbound, Katamari Reverie and some more Lumines Arise.
