What if instead of waves, it was just 'as many enemies we could fit on the screen and then some'.

And instead of dinosaurs it was Giant Insects(tm).

They've made like five really solid single player Resi games in the last few years. Why can't they make one measly dino game?

Every single Games as a Service title from the last 1 - 2 years has been shutting down permanently with no way to play them anymore. Game devs can't keep these games running unless they are Destiny 2, or Fortnite levels of success. Do not buy any GaaS titles lol.

Picked up the recent Avengers game for like $5 and had a blast with the single player.

Buying GaaS games for super cheap and playing them in their death knells is the way to go.
Looking forward to Gotham Knights eventually!

5's satellite operator is great. I also liked 4's implication that you weren't supposed to even be using those weapons.

i agree with the WHM lads that they really had to give that thing a better title and not depend on people coming to see adam driver alone, because my immediate thought on seeing "adam driver stars in '65'" is, "oh, he's in some sort of emotional period piece," and not, "oh, he's shooting a t-rex with a plasma rifle"

There's a bunch of closets and dumpsters you can hide in Metal Gear Solid style, and a boss fight with a hiding mechanic. But none of it ends up doing anything. It feels like a stealth mechanic was meant to be heavily used at one point in development and then it was abandoned.

To me it read more like they were covering for the brief times when you lose your powers as a form of changing up gameplay, as well as for that boss fight in particular. . It's just an option there to be made use of if you want, but really unless you play the ultra hard difficulty you never need to take advantage of it too much.

Tbh that's a fair knock, I personally liked it as a change of pace occasionally myself. The rest of the game certainly made up for it.
