Octopath Traveller is also coming to GP. I see Square Enix are in good terms with Xbox Microsoft.
The game is selling for more than 4k on other stores.
Way too many SE games on game pass. I wonder if that’s a sign of something.

Cleared in one simple post.
It would have been if the delineated total cost difference between AA and AAA was clearly stated. Neither that post or any of us here have a definitive answer. It’s all opinions.Still, fun discussion

I'm not aggressive just annoyed because of the absolutely pointless arguments which come up couple of days especially things which can be resolved by a simple Google search.
Besides, how does it matter if a game is AAA or whatever. It has absolutely no bearing on the quality or enjoyment derived from it.
I honestly don't like this inventory comingling of pointless conjecture with actual discussion about video games.
What actual value did the last couple pages of discussion add to anyone's life?
But this is the internet..

it can't be subjective where some people think it's AAA and others don't - that's too funny
This whole thread is just people opinionating anyway. Let's not take ourselves too seriously

All mad because Outriders is on GP lol.
Curious, but do you think Bulletstorm was a AAA title?

Because it’s not an RPGBut you were literally just asking how people who sink 100s of hours into RPGs (90% of which have janky mechanics) can dislike RDR2's gameplay. Unless you were only comparing the janky mechanics?

I never understood how people who sink 100s of hours into RPGs (90% of which have janky mechanics) can say this. Does gameplay matter in certain genres and not in others?
Besides, what makes RDR2 fantastic goes way beyond its gameplay.
I think you may have zeroed in on it there. Maybe there's aren't enough numbers ticking up or visible systems to manipulate for it to appeal to traditional RPG gamers.

People have zero understanding of these terms and go round and round for no reason.
AAA games just mean expensive games backed by publishers.
So much dumb argument over nothing.
It has nothing to do with quality or whatever the f**k.
There are degrees to everything, though. Expensive is a blanket term, and not every game has the same budget.
Which is why you had a lot of AA games in the older console generations. The market was more diverse and not loaded with blockbuster-or-bust with nothing-in-between titles.
So an Outriders would be AA, whereas Avengers would be AAA from that point-of-view.
Edit: Also, what's with the aggression? Calm it

even Knack & Sackboy Adventure cost $60
goodluck trying to categorise it among AAA
Yea... It's tough to just go by retail MSRP.
SE's Avengers game on the other hand was more AAA than this one. It was their biggest western-studio developed game, plus they threw a lot of money at that thing too. Cyberpunk too. Both failed the quality test, but they had both the budget and public profile to be categorized AAA.

Less clunky than Gears 5, looks gorgeous, near 4k at 60fps - shooter with powers - sounds like fun. That’s only from the demo.
I don't think that's enough, tbh. If you're looking at budget, importance in the publishers' lineup, and overall quality, true AAA would be the likes of RDR2, GTAV, TLOU2, GoT, GoW, etc.
I don't think Outriders even comes close to those games. It's probably second rung on SE's own release list/calendar.

I hope Sony doesn't follow suit and provide this for next months PS+ just because MS gave it away for GP :/
Agreed. Selfishly, and as a subscriber to both, I don't really want overlap.
The problem is there's such a limited pool of good content to pick from. If not this, then what.

Agreed, RT is not trustworthy, especially since their weird Rise of skywalker score that didn't budge even after 1000s of new user scores.
Metacritic isn't that holy either, Black Panther is higher than Bladerunner and Bladerunner 2049.
This might sound silly but I've come to believe in user scores more than critic scores, and it's mostly in line with my preference.
Yea, critics cut Disney content a lot of slack. I don't think the Blade Runner scores are bad per se, but it's more that the Black Panther score is higher than it should be.
Also, I wouldn't consider the the OG Blade Runner rating at all. Sourcing legit reviews for that old a movie can't be easy.

Damn, MS giving away AAA third party titles day 1 on gp while Sony is charging 70$ for remasters (read ps5 patch) of 2 year old games
Not sure if I'd call Outriders AAA

The game was probably destined to fail. Good, that SE got paid for it. Wouldn't have sold much to recover the costs.
Yea, I wonder if the price MS is paying is low given the overall quality of the game.
SE has been making some really bad bets of late.

Here's the Kotaku/AV Club review: https://film.avclub.com/the-snyder-cut-is-a-much-longer-justice-league-but-not-1846466321
I'll still watch it, though

I like Metacritic better. IMDB I feel becomes kind of a popularity contest.
Yea, especially for the more mainstream movies. It's easy to pad reviews when it's all public, just like fanboys spamming negative user scores on Metacritic. It gets a bit better if you go by the "helpful/not helpful" vote count under reviews.
IMDB works really well for more niche movies though, from my experience at least. You won't see a lot of reviews for those anyway, and those that are there are mostly well written.

We all love RT but nobody posting the RT score here-: 75%

RT is alright, but they aggregate a LOT of websites. I think Metacritic has certain criteria that need to met before you can get listed, so it's a more curated list.

Yea, early reviews and all that. Never underestimate the politeness of reviewers
8 hours ago, quixote_1989 said:Some pretty good reviews in there as well. :/
True, but that's why you look at the overall score. It's a decent indicator :\
I think Wonder Woman ended at 60 on Metacritic after the initial high scores. And 60 is still way too high for that movie

Have you chaps seen the reviews? We might be in for another WW84, except 4 hours long

What did Elton John create last year?Royalties, re-releases. maybe revenue-share from the Rocketman movie. Both him and his partner were co-producers, I think.
