Killzone plays like a game that only exists because of contractual obligations.

Killzone Shadowfall is one of my favorite shooters and an amazing launch game. Most people don’t agree with me though. Does it hold up? Maybe? For the price I would say it’s well worth it if you like meaty feeling slower paced shooters.

I will play Killzone at some point because I wish to be more amazed that those responsible for Killzone are also responsible for my top 5th game of all time Horizon Zero Dawn!

The fact they eventually made Horizon is CRAZY to me. The KZ games are like the most generic shooters ever made. It'd be like if the Flappy Bird guy made Half-Life

https://youtu.be/4q0jcSUDjac one of the things I overlooked was that a benefit of the additional horsepower in the PS4/PS4 Pro is gonna be the camera zooming out and showing how colossal these colossi are.

This guy playing the PS2 version looks about the same (starts at 3:00). It only seems a little tighter because it's 4:3.

Can't wait to do my sweet pro moves on the colossi, like the jump stab. Does full damage without having to charge up but puts you at greater risk of falling off. And I'm gonna enjoy grabbing an eagle and getting flown around while looking at the updated graphics.

The Digital Foundry guys did an extensive tech review of the remaster including differences between base hardware and the Pro, if you're into that kind of thing. I like how John can't even hide what a huge SotC fanboy he is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=faMkcZ6z1Ww

The original SotC is one of the small number of PS2 games that can be set to 16:9 so I can confirm that it has always pulled out that distance.

Samuringa posted:No Man's Sky - Yes, I know, but I do greatly enjoy crafting and survival games and from what I've seen this one has that in spades. No Man's Sky is actually really good, and the patches it's received since launch have added a ton of things to do in the game, the most recent being a completely revamped story line, new planet and ship types and simple online interactions. There's another patch on the horizon as well that should be adding more to the multiplayer side, but no one knows anything about it yet. The games biggest weakness right now though is that there's no real ground combat besides sentinels and the ground combat hasn't really received the kind of love other areas of the game have recieved so far in its post launch support.

I thought SotC was one of the very first PS2 games to have a 720i or 1080i rendering mode, but I think I just misremembered and it was the 16:9 aspect ratio that was special. Graphics were mindblowing back in the day and when I think about it, probably my first introduction into the pure visual glory that would one day become known as TressFX.

They (Guerilla Games) also made Battle Engine Aquila, which was one of my favourite PS2 demos, jumping around in a giant spider and shooting giant guns was really fun. I don't know how the full game turned ouy, though.

Samurai Sanders posted:I don't understand why MHW has two independent ways to enter games already in progress. It's dividing multiplayer requests in a weird way for no good reason I can see. What do you mean, SOS Requests and and Join Mission? Because they're very different, unless you're talking about some other way. Guys MHW is so good.
