Borrowed my mate's copy (he gets to enjoy my copy of God of War in the meantime ). Played the Prologue and Chapter 1 last night. It's basically Uncharted 4 so far and after a long break from the series it's exactly what I need. Still...it's insane how God of War looks even better than this. Can't wait to see what Naughty Dogs are able to give us with The Last of Us 2.

Now I have the original stuck in my head. Probably for the next few weeks. Bless me with your gift of lights Righteous cause on judgment nights Feel the sorrow the light has swallowed Feel the freedom like no tomorrow One of the most important songs of my teenage-video-game-history. The last two minutes are sooooo good.

Photo Mode has been released...

To rephrase what @Kav said: Back up saves locked behind paywall... I think no one is criticizing the fact that cloud saves cost money, it's just that Nintendo doesn't offer any alternative right now and there's no indication that an alternative will be available soon. Quite frankly, it's embarrassing that you aren't able to back up saves to an external storage device...

via gematsu.com @Hero-of-Time will be pleased

Well...gonna be a looooooong time until I get a Switch, then, if ever.

No more Pokémon games. Finally.

I don't know what that is.

There's no way Pokémon won't be behind the subscription service. As we all know, it's a system seller and if it has online modes it will also be a subscription seller.

Can be both. Technically "Schildkröte" would translate to "shield toad". Can be. In zoology "Panzer" is actually "shell", though.

The German words for toad and frog

It's actually armoured toad. Get your German right, bob.

Just tried the demo for Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. Controls are a little awkward, but once I got used to them the game sucked me in with the tactical stealth gameplay. The perfect genre for me. It's currently on sale for 12.50€ (down from 50€) in the PSN store. Guess I'll buy it now

A couple of friends and I gave a copy of God of War to one of my best mate's for his birthday. I watched him play the first few hours today. Oh boy, the joy on his face during The Stranger fight. Pure happiness.

Sounds good. Maybe the next game I'll buy. Have to wait until June, though. Lots of stuff to do in real life (urgh ) and until that is finished it's only backlog for me

I think I started Yakuza 4 of them on PS3 years ago (I might even have a physical copy somewhere) but never played more than 20 minutes. No idea why. Probably because it's not the beginning of the story. I guess Zero is basically the start of the entire saga?

Time well spent, I assume?

God of War sold 3.1m copies in three days Impressive. And well deserved.

As I did with Rocket League, I have now paid money for Fortnite Battle Royale. I got both games for free (well, Rocket League with PS+, which - technically - isn't "free") and got so much enjoyment out of them (and with Fortnite BR I will get more over the next few weeks) so I decided I'd give the devs something back. Bought the Battle Pass which opens up a variety of challenges you can complete and lots of cool cosmetic stuff if you level up enough. I figured that buying this for 10 bucks is much better than buying one or two items for the same amount. As I mentioned, this is the second time I used money for "microtransactions" or "cosmetic items" but in these cases the devs deserve it. The amount of effort that they put into those games is astounding.

It's a good game, but as it is with basically every Shmup: there's little skill involved. If you put in the time to memorize enemy and bullet patterns it's really easy, since they never change. A game to buy when it's on sale on the PSN store, maybe.

Could have, should have, would have. I was pissed for a couple of minutes. Now I'm calm again. Still...what a stupid performance in both legs

Well deserved. Just as last year we gifted it to Madrid.

Why, WHY did we have to concede another stupid goal... Edit: Fuck everything. Back to video gaming I go
