Nintendo is clearly playing safe. This is a sure shot success, will sell 15-20Mil in first year itself.

Not sure how to feel about this. Was hoping for college students messing around in a snowy hillstation, pranks and wendigo, but that concepts been done to death. On one hand I dislike the fact that they've ignored everything from the game, on the other hand the idea of a new horror every time that thing resets seems like a good idea.

#158 Mafia: Definitive Edition

Depends on perspective I guess. I see enough improvements on games I'm yet to play. Hogwarts, Stellar Blade, Re Village and 4R from the top of my head. Sure, no disc drive but it has 2TB SSD. Though I'd agree they probably should have offered 1TB and kept the drive, would have been better choice.

Nice to see Xbox knowing it's aukaat. Gaming world will be a better place with PS, Nintendo and PC. Finally the few good games they had will receive the love it deserves. Sony gets 30% and more console exclusives with that money. Whole slate beaches 😅

#157 Dead Island 2

Gladiator 2 Fun watch and lots of twists I did not see coming. Ofcourse not almost perfect like the first one, but still pretty good. If original was a 10, this would be a solid 8.5 imho

Holy f**king hell. All this circus to defend Series S, it was obvious from BG3 that the thing is holding Xbox back. I'm sure the game runs absolutely fine on X, but Game Science cannot launch on it because MS mandates both S and X release or nothing. Jizz Corden and Paul Assi will not retract their earlier statements suggesting timed exclusivity and PS paying devs. The cumguzzlers who were riding S saying it will lead to increase in sales will also ignore the predicament. Meanwhile, PS gets another banger console exclusive without spending a buck. I hope Nvidia/AMD don't have any cards with less than 12gigs VRAM planned.

I think I'm going blind, need to get my eyes checked. MS usually puts up player numbers, they haven't with Indy. Also, steam concurent player count topped at 12K, this is quite bad considering how beloved the IP is. Add to that the game was well received by critics, and ones who've played it have mostly good things to say.

Is Indy not eligible? I know commercially it flopped harder than saggy old tatas but it's clearly good enough to be a nominee, no?

What this man said. Would also like to add the incredible score and Aerith being a cutie.

You call this a GOTY list without including Concord and Hellblade 2?! 😂

Poor guy has been going to every thread and crying ever since the Game Awards. Let him be, don't strip him anymore

Will return to that in some time. Was only adding store items before they go away last night 😊

Dead Island 2 GRID Legends

You'd end up skipping a lot of the film, especially a big chunk of the third act. Rest of the film also has full nudity and long needles going places Imo, don't think it would be a good watch if scenes are skipped. Not that it's its main USP, but the gore/grotesque disfiguration adds to the underlying insecurity and bruised ego of the main character and the lengths one in such a position would go to fix it.

Let's be honest here, they've not failed with narration yet, as far as I know. Haven't read the books but from what I've been told these games are non-canon extensions to those books, and in that regards they've done very well. CDPR said the story will explain how Ciri becomes a Witcher, I'm confident there'll be good reasoning. On the technical end on launch, people said the same for CP2077, that they can't go wrong, yet it was quite bad. They hadn't learnt form W3 launch. Here's hoping they don't repeat same mistakes.

Have trust in CDPR that they'll take care of the narrative and lore. Only concern is in what state they'll release the game, technical issues of W3 and CP2077 should not be repeated.
