Recently purchased a PS5. Never owned a PS before so I’m hitting up a list put together by Utnayan. One down.

Finished it tonight, which is saying something because I usually don’t finish single player games. Great story. And the voice acting was really well done (though I kept thinking I was playing Destiny after you-know-who showed up). The game really fit my play style well. I’m a huge bow and...

Friends and I played Generation Zero last night. Terrible game. Graphics are about 5-10 years old. You spend most of the game looting houses and cars that look the same. When you do fight, which isn’t often enough, you fight the same 3 mobs over and over and over. The quests (if you can call...

Fuckin A! Horizon Zero Dawn is a great game. Stayed up way too late last night playing it. Haven’t done that in a long time for a single player game. If I get fired because of Utnayan’s list, there will be hell to pay.

Got my PS5. It’s ugly. Like uglier than the pictures. What’s with the gray-ish color? Makes it look cheap. I thought it was a clean white. Series X wins the meaningless categories of appearance and unboxing. Just finished installing the first game on Utnayan’s list. Game on!

Excellent. Looks like I’ll start with Horizon Zero Dawn this weekend and make my way down your list from there.

Thank you, sir. If I have access to physical copies of all of those games, is there a reason to get PS Plus? Do you need it for the PS5 patches (for those games that have them)?

Finally got a PS5 from Walmart today. Played a lot of Xbox but never owned a PlayStation. Where do I start on exclusives? My local library has all kinds of games, so I have access to any PS4/PS5 games.

Played this on my Series X. Loved it. Game is based on a clever concept. Don’t look up any spoilers/hints before or while you play.

I think I’ve decided to buy one. What’s the best way to follow restocks? Is this Walmart thing going to be the best shot before the holidays?

My friends and I are playing through the campaign and having a lot of fun. I’d give it a solid B+ as long as you’re playing with friends. I imagine the entertainment value drops significantly without friends to play with. I agree with the comment above about the makers playing it safe. I...

I’m no audiophile. The Microsoft headset sounds great to me, but my last headset was a super old Turtle Beach and I thought it sounded great too. The features I like on the Microsoft headset are that it’s wireless (connects to Xbox like a controller) and the dials on the outside of the...

Buy the Microsoft rechargeable battery pack. Holds a great charge and comes with 9 ft cord in case it gets low while playing. I also recommend the new Xbox headset. Great headset for the price. Alternate plugging in the headset and the controller after every time you play and you’ll never...

With this game coming to Game Pass, a few friends and I are going to give it a try. We’ve been playing quite a bit of Ark where I just use my extra Xbox to host a server. What’s best for Conan in terms of server? Should we play on an official server or fork over the cash to rent and play on a...

I’m digging the random class/race thing. Is there a forum guild for this?

Been playing this on Xbox with 2 friends. Got up to 23. Tonight the game crashed, which it’s been doing quite a bit for all 3 of us. When I logged back on my character in lobby was naked. Every time I try to log on with that character, it gives a server error. But I can play on other...

Price dropped to $30, could be for a limited time.

I had the exact same reaction. Couldn’t ever quite put my finger on why, but it’s worse than the first two.

I have, but there’s always been a way around it. For example, there was an apartment I needed to get into. Could have done it with a couple more points in strength, but instead went out the window onto the fire escape and jumped across to another fire escape and went into the window. Could be...

I’ve been playing this on Series X using performance mode. It looks great. Few bugs, but nothing even close to game breaking. No crashes. I don’t care too much about game difficulty, but I understand the complaints here. I haven’t spent an attribute point since near the beginning of the...

What a disaster. I smell a lawsuit. You guys defending the company are ridiculous. Fucking Fallout 76 didn’t get delisted from the Sony store.

It’s honestly hard to tell if this is an honest review or the reviewer is pulling punches because he dare not say anything too negative about the most anticipated game ever. Hours at a time without combat? Disappointing if you play it like an FPS? And listen to these bugs: Yikes! I have my...

“Restart this journey”... sounds like they’re going back to the drawing board. Maybe it’ll be a launch title for Xbox Series X2. https://www.windowscentral.com/343-industries-expected-give-high-level-update-halo-infinite-soon

I need to put some points in the melee skill tree, or whatever you call the tree directly up from center. Still resisting the urge to google the skills.

I’ve completed two story arcs in England and just barely started upgrading—just weapons though, no armor. I was waiting to find better items to upgrade but then hit a boss I was having a tough time with. I upgraded and wrecked him. Guess I was past the upgrade due date.

I never actually beat Odyssey, but I think I was close. No DLC either. Do I need to understand what happened in Odyssey to understand the real world stuff in Valhalla? I’ve only come out of the animus once, but I didn’t understand any of their references to something crazy she did or something.

Seems to be a lot more crazy/silly quests this time around.

Agree. Makes no sense to hide skills when you can reset for free. I hate googling for anything in games, but the fact that I can get the same information by repeatedly resetting skills makes me feel not so bad about it.

I’ve been in England for about two hours, and I’m just realizing that I never use my abilities. I just use normal attacks and bow and arrow. None of the abilities I have so far seem useful or necessary.

I’m enjoying this so far. It’s not game of the year material, but it’s loads of fun with what seems to be plenty of content. It feels and plays like an upgraded version of Odyssey. If you liked Odyssey, I suspect you’ll find this enjoyable too. I know they tried to make the side quests feel...

Loving the XSX. Played 6 hours of Valhalla tonight. Looked fantastic and ran silky smooth 100% of the time. Really excited to see what developers can do with this thing.

Don’t worry. They’re fixing it.

Going to play this tonight/tomorrow on the new XSX. Which gender has the better voice acting this time around?

Apparently Amazon sent out emails to some who preordered XSX to let them know they won’t actually get the console until the end of December. Less than 24 hours before the console launch.... wow. https://kotaku.com/some-amazon-customers-might-not-get-their-xbox-series-x-1845626215

FedEx has my XSX on the way right now, but I’ll buy my first PlayStation at some point this generation too. Heard great things about the PS4 exclusives and I assume that will continue with PS5. My hope is that MS starts giving Sony a tough fight on the exclusives front with all of its new...

For me it’s a no brainer because all of my friends are on Xbox. But I would second the Game Pass value. MS has purchased a lot of studios and all of those games are included day one on Game Pass, starting with The Medium in December (edit: actually, January). They also do a good job of...

Arrives Dec 8 on XSX and PS5.

Just got the email from MS. XSX shipped.
