Oh my loving god

This has broken me. I HATE those things in every stupid electronic device they're on. You know how many times I've accidentally turned the stupid thing on when I was trying to pull plugs out from the back to pack it up to take somewhere? Everyone is right. Being an early adopter SUCKS (I got my ps4 when MGS GZ launched).

This was way worse on the XB1 since it was a big bright shiny thing begging to be touched by children and pets and would immediately turn off your game.

Looks like a new(?) Far Cry game will be revealed tomorrow. The setting looks like it might pull assets from FC5, but that weapon at the end looks awesome!

Edit: according to Jason Schreier, it's a post-apocalyptic spinoff.

Hmm gently caress it I’m down. I really enjoyed FC5 even though I never beat it. The environments and gameplay were really good. I liked a lot about the story but it was handled and paced really weird.

even though the tiny buttons suck I wish the PS4 slim looked exactly like the launch PS4 but smaller. That thing looked so nice.

I thought I was done with ubisofts big open world map checklist games. I enjoyed a lot of the Assassins Creed games, and loved FC3 and Blood Dragon, but I just kind of burned myself out on them. I was excited for FC4 and got maybe three quarters of the way through the game and just stopped. Havent bothered buying FC5 or any of the last... probably 3 AC games? Maybe 4?

But man I am a sucker for that sort of 1980s post apocalyptic setting (as in the apocalypse evisioned in things like Mad Max, Salute of the Jugger and so on), and if this is FarCry: Mad Max Does Montana, I will be sorely loving tempted. Especially if it comes out before Rage 2. Asset reuse wouldnt bother me much either because I never played the game they will be reusing assets from.

Fc5 was fun.

Fc5 dlc was phoned in trash garbage. Even the Mars dlc which could have done super fun wacky stuff with the gun literally just skinned basic assault rifles and shotguns with blue energy bullets and called it a day.

I expected some campie blood dragon poo poo. Nope.

Gonna have to be some good previews for my to buy into fc76

Tap "A" to drink!!!

All 3 Persona dancing games are good but it's pretty insane that 3 and 5 are $60 each. The Amazon price error for 3, 4, 5 should have been regular MSRP.

why the gently caress do they keep making these serious far cry games that i havent played since the original on the pc eons ago and not more of the amazing blood dragon. whens blood dragon III - vietnam war 2, out goddamnit.

I just got the game last week because it was 10 bucks and it's surprisingly decent. It has some problems but I'm having fun with it.

There's no lootbox poo poo anymore, btw. Just a kinda stupid progression system.

I got BF2 as a stocking stuffer for a few people. It's shooty shooty star wars, has a single player campaign, and somewhat serviceable multiplayer we can maybe play together so :shrug:

My tv replaced the capacitive touch buttons on older models with a single large button. Long press to confirm, short press to cycle options.

I wish i had those vile capacitive buttons back i cant believe it

It took me years to remember the bottom ps4 button ejects the disc...it just seems, way, way more natural to me the other way around...I mean, on the original ps1 and slim ps2 where did you load the freakin disc from?? What sense/logic does it make to reverse that :wtc:

They are just a pointless silly extra failure point. Especially with smartlink and digital libraries, the amount of time you spend pressing buttons on the front panel is really minimal. 'Hidden' physical button is correct (though the pro are too hidden) you should see them when you get close

you can ejects discs from the main ps4 menu with the ds4 pad. also my discs that i own will live forever with me in my grave, unlike those licenses to be "allowed" to play things. :colbert:
