where is this from?

 

Song is Pháo - 2 Phút Hơn (very catchy and popular in Vietnam)

The character is Zero Two from Darling in the Franxx

The dance move is kind of from ME!ME!ME!

 

All 3 together and you have it:

 

 

Search for song title on Youtube and you will find live versions too.

Has anyone tried Oddworld so far? I played for an hour yesterday. It has very great looking cutscenes, was very impressed with the fidelity on screen. The actual gameplay is puzzle platforming. Too early to judge the game but it's alright so far.

 

The only issue is the occasional hiccups when crossing save points on PS5. Also had my first ever crash with this game.

I liked it initially but then it grew weary on me. Not liking it really.

If you find this mesmerizing, just go on Instagram or YouTube and search for the live versions, you will never stop watching that stuff.

Are you referring to burch twins? :chair:

Also new PS5 stock incoming 

 

https://in.ign.com/playstation-5-playstation-5/157336/news/ps5-india-restock-date-games-price-ps-now-xbox-game-pass


Multiple distributors for Sony across the nation speaking to IGN India on condition of anonymity fearing retribution feel that simply having the PS5 in stock isn’t enough.

“At best retail will be able to use it [PS5 restocks] to bundle games like Sackboy and Demon’s Souls that didn’t sell,” says one distributor. “Outside of Miles Morales, no other Sony[-published] game on PS5 has sold well.”

 

Two upcoming PS5 exclusives, Returnal and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart have had all-India pre-order numbers in double digits. While one would think this is pretty abysmal by Sony’s standards, it comes as no surprise to those speaking to IGN India.

“The price is too high, no one is going to spend Rs. 5,000 for either game as they’re not established IP in India and when gamers can share accounts or buy PS4 games cheaper — that’s where they’re spending their money,”

I was waiting for someone to pull those quotes with selective bolding :lol:

There's definitely a narrative being built, although Sony don't helping by staying quiet. Tons of games/pitched get cancelled even before they are announced and teams get shuffle around to help with other things.

 

But hey, Jim Ryan needs to be fired cause he's the devil.

 

I had to look the RE8 1080p thing up just now. Seems like it came from a random tweet from a supposed insider that no big name outlet picked up (couldn't find anything on EG, GameSpot, or IGN), which explains why I didn't remember reading about it. It's best to not fully believe news like that in the first place, I suppose. If companies took the time to deny random rumors, that's all they'd have time to do.

 

Not very sure if he's been accurate on past rumors, but here's some more detail for the rest of the group:

Looks like the fanboys really went after him last year.

Couldn’t agree more. 

 

Days Gone is an average game at best (story-wise). 

I can’t believe people are upset it’s not getting a sequel. 
The writing in that game is so sub-par and lazy, cheesy. 

Bend Studios did a great job optimizing it for PS5. 
But performance really doesn’t matter if the story and characters are so bland.  
I tried Days Gone on PS5 and struggling to even get past the story because of how generic it is. 
 

Also, I think over the past few months there is an uptick in negative Sony articles all over the internet. 
This is just bad PR imo. 

 

Yea, I didn't really feel the writing either tbh. Uninteresting writing doesn't really help generic biker bro characters. I'm sure people liked it for reasons, but it just seemed like it was leaning on a bunch of cliches all at once.

 

I haven't played the game, but I wonder how the rippers and their leader compare to the scars from TLOU2. I suspect the scars come off much better/more memorable.

 

I think we're in the minority, though.

Nothing surprising, though. We're such a small market for this sort of stuff.

 

I was going to say that Indian console gamers are generally (and vastly generalizing here) upper income, so a 1K bump wouldn't matter to people who're willing to pony up 4K. But then I don't know... 5K does seem like a psychological barrier. Or am I alone? :D

The problem with Dusk tweet was (aside from hilarious claim that PS5 struggles at1080p) that it was followed up with quote saying he felt the console war was too one sided (this was after Halo Infinite flop show) and he had to do something about it. All his other claims about PS5 also failed, like devs having major issues with it and PS5 is going to cost a bomb (at least $599 if not more). Dude had an agenda and ultimately left Era staff position.

As a PC gamer the barrier is even smaller. Anything above 2K is wait for sale :P

I was ok with 4k games, buy play and sell. But 5k for games not so well known or niche nahhh. Prices drop too soon.

His reasoning for doing what he did was hilarious, shows how petty console wars can be, he was definitely quoted by IGN etc iirc

Damn, TY for the detail! Google also says he predicted an 8/20 Silent Hills announcement :D

Insider clout is one hell of a drug.

 

For sure. Especially when you start getting quoted all over.

3k is a psychological barrier for me but I'm able to justify something like 3500 too. 

5,000 is just too much for me. 

 

Yea, the prices drop pretty fast these days. The problem with a 5K MRP though, is that the discounted price will be slightly higher than we're used to :mellow:

 

A PC would've been ideal, but the XSX and PS5 pre-order mayhem distracted me from the Rashi FE drops. And now it's too late :mellow:
