Some of the trophies are really annoying. While the game design (i.e. the story being split into several chapters) is fine for your first playthrough, it really sucks for getting the trophies. E.g.: I had to play Chapter 9 three more times to get all of the dresses and sidequest related trophies available there. Well...thankfully I'm done with those What's left: The remaining three battles in the Shinra Combat Simulator (those Hard Mode fights are tough). These include the optional ultimate boss and apparently the most difficult fight in the game. Finish the remaining chapters on Hard Mode.

I've become indifferent. Even if something has leaked, I still feel a sense of surprise when it's actually revealed. So if any of those insiders or leaks come true, you can be sure that I'll be giddy with joy on Wednesday

I chuckled at that. Everybody needs some Happy Smile Points these days.

Heh, getting quite excited to play Super Mario 64. Never got all 120 stars (also never got everything in Super Mario Sunshine) so this will be fun Gonna take quite some time, as I'll only play this with my mate on Sundays for a couple of hours. Managed to pre-order a second copy. Hope it'll go through. That'll be the Christmas gift for my sister sorted

Hm. Interesting. I might give you a shout if I can find the time. I'll be quite busy next week. Great session I swear to God, for our next game I'll play in docked mode and use my DualShock 4 And here are my final 6 deaths in Super Mario Bros. 3: I swear...I'm usually not that bad at video games Nothing too weird happened during the final stretch of Kirby Super Star. I was very surprised by the JRPG boss, though. Did not expect that one

It's a great game Well, aside from the last 1 1/2 rounds of football and curling it was pretty much unplayable for me due to lag. So a night to forget Good games, though Gonna take a fiver and then join ya for some Bowser bashing?
-
Oh shit, totally forgot. I was busy with Final Fantasy VII Remake. Sorry...on my way.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure we'll see the price and pre-order + release date. But the again: If there's none of that, I wouldn't be that disappointed, because Sony never said they will announce it But people would be up in arms anyways... Indeed. I always wonder why people want 800 games at launch. How rich are they? Of course, more games could mean a larger selection of genres, just in case you're not fond of some, but still...there's no need for more than two first party launch titles. For me, if I can financially manage to get a PS5 at launch, Astro's Playroom and my PS4 library would be more than enough. Yeah, we'll definitely see more gameplay of launch games. But I'm also holding out for a big surprise. A game that we know is in development but haven't seen, yet. Maybe one of those JRPGs you mentioned. And gimme that sweet, sweet UI
-
Games only? Anyways, this will - going by Sony's wording - reveal the launch line-up. Will Demon's Souls make the cut? So, come Wednesday we will know most of what we can expect for this year's next generation release. Exciting times indeed

More spam Chapter 9 Hard Mode done! Not as difficult as I expected, to be honest. The boss fight was still a battle of attrition. Almost ran out of MP so I got an indication of where future fights are headed. Now it's time for that accessory. Problem is: I missed a few prerequisites to actually unlock the battle that gives you the item provided you are victorious. One of those prerequisites: A battle in Chapter 9. I missed the chance twice so I gotta do it all over again. Well, I had to do it anyway in order to get another bridal dress. Speaking of which: I now have 6/9. Think I'll just switch to Easy Mode for a while, get the remaining dresses and unlock the ultimate battle. After that I'll get back to Hard Mode and try to acquire the accessory. Halfway through Hard Mode, only a few more trophies to clean up and then "just" finish the remaining chapters on the highest difficulty. Not long now

Slowly but surely getting closer to the first fight that will, by my estimation, be the first real hurdle in Hard Mode. So far, it's been really easy. I'm already dreading some of the future boss fights because of a stupid Hard Mode limitation: You can't use items and rest points don't regenerate MP. But: For some bosses you have to rely on Magic and Magic consumes MP. This will make some fights difficult for the wrong reasons. Anyways, after I'm done with Chapter 9 (hopefully without a lot of problems, but as I said: I'm approaching the first tough battle) I'll probably try to beat one of the optional bosses in a later chapter in order to get an insanely strong accessory.

No biggie. They can take all the time they need

Alrighty, Chapters 2 - 4 have been completed. Nothing too difficult. Haven't had to actually go for the enemies' weaknesses, yet. Pretty sure I know when this'll change, though Kinda interesting to see how little fighting there actually is compared to exploration and story progression. Skipping all the cutscenes cuts out a considerable chunk of the game.
-
Reached level 50 with all characters and have just started my Hard difficulty playthrough. Completed Chapter 1. Holy hell...Hard difficulty does not fuck around. Got through without dying, but the boss fight was challenging.
-
Finally got the time to watch a 30 minute preview instead of just watching some snippets. Now I'm even more excited. Looks like a lot of fun. Can't wait to get lost in the world and just explore every nook and cranny. Combat seems to be right up my alley, too. Really hope there will be an option to remove the HUD. The previews also reminded me that Genshin Impact will be released in 2 1/2 weeks. Can't wait to give that one a go
-
I can
-
Tomorrow before or after the Clubhouse games?
-
Ok. That's fair. YOU LIAR!
-
This looks great. Engaging combat, a world with lots of secrets to explore, Greek mythology. Can't wait to give this a go.

I remember some people here thinking about getting Hotshot Racing. If any of you gave it go: Gimme some impressions. I've never played the old arcade racers but I'm in the mood to try something new. Just wondering whether the game is worth the 15.99€ price tag.
-
Not sure if I'm doing something wrong. Or right? I've been doing some side missions and had no problems at all, even with those marked as "hard" or "very hard". I breezed through them. Then there are certain monsters in the main mission that kill me in two hits Anyway, the game now gave me the option to fuse Materia, but I really don't see the benefit right now. I could fuse two Fire Materia, each with +2 Atk and then get a Fire Materia with +3 Atk. It's not worth it. Weird. The game gets weirder by the minute I'm enjoying it, though.

They should do that anyways. "The only next-gen digital console", or something like that.

I wonder what approach Sony will take. Just a tweet to announce the price? If they match the price (i.e. 500 bucks for the disc version; 399 bucks for the DE - they can't match the Series S' price) a tweet would be enough. If they decide to be much more aggressive a dedicated video would be the way to go. In any case, they need to get the message across that the PS5 DE is a much more powerful console than the Series S. People need to know that the price difference is justified. Hardcore gamers/PS4 enthusiasts already know that, but the "casuals" need some convincing. Given how great the marketing for the PS5 has been so far, I'm not too worried. Still...this announcement is very important. They gotta deliver
