@Lazy_Data Absolutely correct. Have fun the way you want to have fun. If that means using assist, use assists. If that means turning assists off, turn them off. Play how you want.

@_TheImpureKing_ Exactly right. A lot of hate on the internet is forced so it is always good to form your own opinion.

Who here has played the Saints Row reboot? And if so what did you think? As part of a buddy and mine’s “summer of slop” annual event (where we test out games that got 💩 on) I downloaded it. I’m expecting the worst but hey, you never know until you try right?

@luizmdz1 It has even more potential as a multiplatform game. Now more people get to play it. Get out of that childish mentality of not wanting to share your toys with others.

Eis um jogo que tinha um baita potencial como exclusivo... Mas sofreu o efeito pilha Spencer e Sarah Bond 😭

@eXtas1stv Series X. I'm also really happy that so many people will get to play it.

🚨 FABLE LLEGA DIA UNO A PS5 🔵 Playground Games confirmó nuevamente que Fable llegará a PS5 desde el primer día. Nada de exclusividad temporal; se lanzará simultáneamente en Xbox, Steam y la consola de Sony en 2026. ¿Dónde lo piensan jugar ustedes? 🤔

@shinobi602 There are those online that need to create controversies where none exist. Imagine being so bored that you have time to do that. Even if you have the time, imagine how bad of a person you have to be to try and do that, to actively try and harm a game or studio for zero reason.

Finished Mixtape 💿 Found it charming with a lot of heartfelt moments that got me pretty nostalgic. I loved all the 90s references, the soundtrack was great with some songs that I recognized and some that I didn't. The art direction and visuals were great. It's nicely stylized with lots of beautiful lighting effects. The gameplay's pretty light. I don't know if it's something I'd necessarily call 'bad' because it's going for a very specific curated experience. I'm someone who enjoys everything from Souls to shooters, racing games, horror games, RPGs...I've also loved games that were pretty light on gameplay like Gone Home, Firewatch, Edith Finch, etc. As an 'experience', I liked what I played and found the whole thing memorable. I spent way too long skipping stones on that lake though lol. I'll say it got me a little emotional at times because some of it reminded me of me and my two older brothers growing up in the 90s and I really miss those days. We talk about it all time whenever we text or call. "Dude remember this" - *proceeds to share a classic 90s hit song or random commercial*. So Mixtape kind of took me back to those days. I quite liked all the characters, especially Slater. We'd probably be bros in real life lol. The script was funny and witty and made even better by some great performances. I'm not sure what all the fuss is about. Just seems like a cutesy, niche game like The Artful Escape before it. I guess some media reviews set some people off. Personally I wouldn't give it a 10 at all, but I don't fault anyone for really liking it. Some things just resonate with others a lot more. Had an enjoyable time overall ✌️ #Mixtape #PS5Pro

@RadstormR18852 @shinobi602 What you don't understand is that reviews are subjective opinion. The media has not been writing bad reviews. You might think Game A is a 10/10 while another thinks it is absolute trash and vice versa. They might think something is 10/10 and you hate it. Subjective opinion.

@shinobi602 It's just the media have been writing some really bad reviews. There's no way Mouse P.I is a 6 but Mixtape is a 10. So people are automatically skeptical of any mainstream outlets

@nonoruna_ch I have to disagree. Forza Horizon is going to get a lot of new fans with this entry and I bet a lot will want to check out the next one as well.

FH6で日本が舞台きっかけで Forza Horizonシリーズ初めて遊んだ人ってさ… FH7出ても絶対買わないだろw

@Victor_Lucas These ideas are fantastic for back in 2005. Unfortunately with global events and everything, not a possibility.

The next XBOX should be called XBOX 2. The one after that should be called XBOX 3. Then XBOX 4… The videogame console should cost $500. There should be an optional disc drive for $100 to play any XBOX game produced since the OG XBOX. - VIC from THE ELECTRIC PLAYGROUND

@Critical_Scribe They probably don't think about the vocal minority online that complains about anything and everything. When real gamers get the game, they will no doubt have a good time with it.

I gotta ask. Does no one review these clips and go “you know, maybe this actually doesn’t paint the game in the best light.” Because if this is simple hunting I wouldn’t want to do this at all.

@JadieIsTired It's interesting because In N Out uses real, fresh potatoes for their fries. Are people so used to processed trash that their system can't handle something real like that? Fascinating.

In-N-Out fries are not good. #OfferAnUnpopularOpinion

@Caith_Sith Astro Bot is fantastic. Loved it. Best 3D platformer in history? Nope.

Mario Odyssey es buenísimo pero qué difícil lo tiene Nintendo para superar al mejor plataformas 3D de la historia, Astrobot.

@JohnnyGaming9 You almost had it but then completely lost it.

There were plenty of articles written about ps layoffs, cancelation of games, and even a recent outrage of the ps plus price increase. Yes there is a bias. That bias is for the platform with the bigger install base. Its not rocket science. Xbox isnt preferred cuz it sucks. Simple

@guillaumeaknin Respectfully disagree. It is a fantastic game so far for me.

Grosse déception ce Forza Horizon 6. Pas de nouveautés, un gameplay pas dingue (les voitures sont des savonnettes), la musique est nulle, et y’a même pas de VF…

@JezCorden Just depends on your group. I know people that are excited to see it. One already has and said he really enjoys it. I'm looking forward to it and will see it in the near future. With Mortal Kombat II and now Mandalorian, this is the most I have gone to the movies in a while.

its kinda weird there's a new star wars movie coming out and nobody i know is talking about it or even seems to care.

@marcsh @SoraFaust Correct. Usually on platforms like Twitter, most of the vocal minority that complain are wrong because they offer nothing constructive. They'll be mad because a woman is the lead or her chest is "too small" or it includes a pronoun because it is bad to show respect to people.

@ShadowsGamingco @SoraFaust The info is super noisy. People having fun are rarely posting, while folks that see a legit issue _or_ that want a slightly different game are posting a lot So that has to be teased out People can also zero in on very subtle stuff or get something just radically wrong

I’ll never understand why gaming companies never listen to their own communities

I hate the way some people act like kids getting annoyed when you suddenly turn off their TV or game is proof they’re “addicted to technology.” No… sometimes people just don’t like having something they’re actively focused on randomly interrupted. If I’m reading a book and someone walks over, snatches it out of my hands, and turns off the light, I’m going to be irritated too. That’s not addiction. That’s a normal human reaction to someone being unnecessarily rude. You’re not making some deep statement about society. You’re just being annoying.

@threenotes_jp Good morning

おはよう。おはようリプください。 海外のみんな、日本は朝だよ。

@AussieGamr You are on point. This happens with many franchises.

Missed Star Fox Zero? That's your loss. Not because it was flawless. It had real problems. But because the people who actually put the time in got something most of you refused to even try. The control system was excellent once you stopped treating it like a broken twin-stick game. Motion aiming on the GamePad while steering with the stick created a completely different rhythm. You had to actually lead shots. You had to manage your movement and your targeting separately. It rewarded practice in a way almost no other on-rails shooter has managed since. The more you played, the more precise and expressive it felt. It wasn't a gimmick. It was a proper skill-based aiming system that most people never gave a real chance. The loudest criticism almost always came from the same place: people who played for twenty minutes, got frustrated, and decided the whole game was broken. They never adapted. They never learned the rhythm. They just confirmed their own bias and moved on. Zero tried to evolve the formula instead of repeating it. It used the Wii U hardware properly instead of ignoring it. Some of the levels and set pieces were genuinely strong. The co-op was fun. The bosses had personality. It had ambition. And it got absolutely roasted for daring to be different. Now we're all celebrating a 64 remake and a bunch of the same voices are acting like Zero was some embarrassing low point that proved the series can't try new things. As if the problem was the attempt itself and not the fact that a huge chunk of the audience refused to meet it halfway. You didn't want a new Star Fox game. You wanted the one you already knew how to play perfectly on the first try. Zero asked something from the player. A lot of people decided that was unacceptable and review-bombed it into the ground before it ever had a real shot. If you bounced off it after a short session and never went back, you didn't actually play Star Fox Zero. You just tried it, got annoyed, and decided your first impression was the whole story. The new 64 remake might be great. I hope it is. But some of us are still wondering what the series could have become if more people had been willing to actually engage with what Zero was doing instead of demanding it feel exactly like the game they already mastered twenty years ago. Am I wrong, or did most of the people who called it a disaster never actually learn the aiming system?

@ParadiseCo_ Dr. Pepper Zero Sugar is good stuff

I get that but drinking 30 grams of sugar is insane

@M4Ximizando You have the correct perspective. It doesn't take away from the experience you have.
