Primal is a big risk if nothing else. No major video game series has ever taken away so much of what made it a success. There are no guns, rocket launchers, vehicles or monologuing psychopaths. Instead, you play a Stone Age tribesman called Takkar, who, armed mostly with spears and arrows, fights man and beast at a time when humankind occupied the food chain's Europa League spots.
It's like Halo without the Warthog, Grand Theft Auto without the blunt satire, Call Of Duty without the gun fetishism. Okay, maybe not quite that extreme, Primal still feels like Far Cry – but that's also where the problem lies.
Rayan from NoobFeed writes - Sony's latest PlayStation Spring Sale is definitely worth looking for those who have been wishlisting these games after playing on PC and wanted to try them on a different platform.
These are ok and all, but the real jackpot is the AC Antiquity Pack - AC Origins + Odyssey for under $25.00. Now that's a deal.
PP: Sony has added a whole bunch of new games to its ongoing sales, and this week’s new additions are actually really good.
From Xfire: "The Far Cry franchise is one of the most well-known names when it comes to video games, thanks to its exotic settings and lunatic (yet lovable) villains. The chronology of the main series is pretty straight forward, they're set in the year they were released in. While there isn't a lot of confusion surrounding the timeline of Far Cry 1-6, the stand-alone expansions and spin-offs make the chronology iffy."
Playing Far Cry 4 on my Series X. It was on my backlog of games played, but never beat. The gameplay is so much better at 60fps. I am liking the fact some games I own and like are getting a free boost. It gives me a reason to go back and play them more.
Trying this tonight. 60fps Far Cry sounds great! (I don't have a gaming PC, so this is the only way I'm going to get 60fps with this game.)
