Last generation seen a total over over 160 million consoles sold across the 3 major consoles. That current figure for the ‘next-gen’ is currently sitting at just over 15 million. This means that less than 10% of gamers who owned a Wii, PS3 or Xbox 360 have one of the three new consoles. Of course, this doesn't mean doom and gloom for any of the consoles considering their short life span, but it does mean that pretty much all of the market is up for grabs and we shouldn’t be too concerned by how a console is performing just yet.
TopSpin 2K25 Review - After a very long hiatus, TopSpin is back! Can Hangar 13 bring the venerable tennis series back to relevance?
Say what you like, but virtual farming is big business. And that means the release of Farm Tycoon onto the Xbox ecosystem should appeal.
Almost unbelievably, Days Gone has just turned 5 years old after launching on April 26th, 2019. What's changed in that time?
For me it wasn't that surprising. There was some bad press before. There's also the matter and element of a person's disposition when trying out a certain game. Sometimes you're just not really into the type of game that you're playing so you put it down because you don't like it. Not necessarily because it's a bad game but because you're just not up for something like this. Reviewers have a tough because no matter what they feel like playing they've got to play what's releasing.
I have many times gone back to games that I put down only to thoroughly enjoy them the second time around because either there wasn't another exciting game coming out around the same time or I just had no other games to play and haven't played that type of game in a while. I'm not the type of person that can just play a souls game through all this iterations one after the other without getting burnt out on the formula.
In my opinion this game was great from the start. Some bugs here and there but nothing worse than the most AAA releases during the same time after and before. All I did was wait one week and I had a phenomenal time with the game. No other zombie survival game comes close to how I thoroughly enjoyed this one
Second act of that game far surpassed the first. Which is why people felt it didn't live up to the hype of the trailers. Personally I loved it. But it was a slog to get your bike and weapons up to skill.
Was gonna post a brick wall of text but I'll keep it short. Pardon my French but f**k the media for the hate they gave this game. If you have a PC to play it on you can get it as low as 10 bucks, and if you have a PS then it's a no brainer. Totally worth a play.
I don't even comment here often but had to for this game, I still stand by my opinion that this was one of the top 10 games of the ps4 generation, I preferred days gone over god of war, horizon and last of us 2, the launch version was definitely piss poor and that messed up the reviews for this game, honestly some games deserve a re-review or post patch review as the metacritic score stays forever but the reality is its not even the same game anymore, the ps5 patch is amazing and the pc version which I play on nowadays is one of the best looking games ever, complete shame that we wont get a sequel, god of war got one, horizon got one, last of us got one, spider man got one,ghosts of tshushima about to get one but this game wont get one, sucks to be honest.
Ps3/360 era had some hidden underated games for me it was shadows of the damned, alice madness returns that deserved more sales and a sequel/ higher scores, and similarly for the ps4 era it was days gone, and dying light 1 that deserved much more love, dying light atleast got a sequel, everyone needs to play this game once and judge for themselves, for me its officially the most underrated game of the ps4 era, go play it if you haven't.
you know why? because the PS3 and Xbox 360 is good enough for 90% of us.
no need to buy one now and would have been a bigger mistake to buy at launch, tbh I have one but tbh if I would recommend a time to buy the ps4 it would be with infamous and driveclub coming soon, infamous really has a next gen feel to it so its the best place to take the plunge.
But hey, supporting the industry right? How can we ask for top notch games without buying consoles.
I was pissed at devs not making games for current gen consoles because of its low market share, but gamers are to blame also they need to get moving and leave their last gen consoles behind.
I just have to ask... so what?
Unless you think Killzone Shadow Fall, Dead Rising 3, inFAMOUS Second Son or Killer Instinct are got to have titles, there isn't a reason to shell out $400+ dollars for a current gen console. I mean, most people that own an Xbox One or PS4 are either trendsetters (like myself), bought into the hype (people who said because the new consoles were super easy to developer for we wouldn't see a dry spell), people who happened to have the money at the time (easier to justify $400+ during the holidays than on March 15) or people who don't mind waiting because last gen consoles still have good games coming out and or several current gen games are also coming out for last gen consoles.
The only exception is the Wii U, since that has games (several solid ones at that and two heavy hitters coming out), though I think most people that don't have a Wii U are waiting for SSB / MK or rather spend the extra money for a console with a more positive outlook (zero offense to the Wii U, which I think is a nice console, but the outlook is pretty grim and most sites look at it as dead).
Im waiting to maybe a year or so ,i just need more games first.
