Thanks but nkt falling for the hype Geoff, I'm still waiting for all the reviews and initial impressions.

sagapo1984d ago

Agreed, although I have high hopes for this game, I’ll wait for the reviews as well

PhantomS421984d ago

Geoff is all hype...his own hype, I don't think anyone actually likes him. Can't wait till he totally fails at another attempt at the game awards, though I kind of don't want to watch since that racist hack Ninja is a host this year.

UltraNova1984d ago

tGAs are a good idea and booster for the gaming industry. Now if only it was run by a not so self-indulgent and ad-obsessed person like Geoff...you know someone who actually cares about the industry as a whole first amd foremost.

PS: Of course ad revenue is an important factor into the survival of these awards. But anyone who's seen the last two tGAs surely cringed at some point by all that blatant ad placement which took close to 1/3 if not more of the shows running time.

Dorito Pope!!! Let’s make a drinking game, take a shot everytime he says, “uh” or “um”!

Anthem Sold A Solid 5 Million Copies In Its Lifetime

The multiplayer action RPG shipped a whopping 2 million copies in its first week alone.

JEECE141d ago

A nice piece of proof-as if anymore was needed-that a game isn't automatically a success if it sells "millions of copies."

RiseNShine141d ago

I don't know if it's still possible, but if it still works, PLAY IT. It's a fantastic RPG on it's own, incredible graphics and story, well worth the Bioware name, i don't know how bad it was on release, but when i played years later it was a great single player RPG well worth playing.

ChasterMies141d ago

This a good example of why you should be hesitant to buy a game at launch.

--Onilink--141d ago

Its has been on sale multiple times for like $2-3… and even when not that aggressively dropped, it is usually in the under $10 category of any sale

BlackCountryBob141d ago

That’s good, but also worth pointing out that after maybe 3 months on sale, this game was selling for about a tenner. Reminds me a bit of Days Gone, good sales overall but only after huge discounts so unlikely to make large profit

What a shitty f***** list! Most of the games on it were great fun. Bullshit list.

chantii_mmohaven484d ago

yep this is truly a b*tthurt list :/

MadLad484d ago

I think the only one I agreed on was Anthem, and even that isn't horrendous.

Knushwood Butt485d ago

Anthem; I'd forgotten that game existed. I remember thinking the trailer was BS though; turns out I was right.

Cueil483d ago

the game wasn't bad though

RavenWolfx484d ago

"Worst big budget games" and immediately lists Genshin Impact, a game that has $4 billion in revenue.

blackblades484d ago

$3 billion and counting along with alot of users. I disagree with that being on the list. This list is just a person opinion without merit

monkey602484d ago

I havent played Genshin Impact and Mafia 3 was alright. The rest though I kind of agree with.
I loved the 1st Kane and Lynch and I could not understand how the 2nd game was as bad as it was.

Aloymetal1009d ago (Edited 1009d ago )

Including indies I’ve bought like more than 20 games, good deals all around.

P_Bomb1009d ago

I’ve overindulged too! Gonna pump the brakes on this next round. Unless there’s a PS+ discount. Need a cheap sub for my kid so I’m not always changing primaries.

solideagle1009d ago (Edited 1009d ago )

could you please suggest good indie games (which are on sale)? I love JRPGs or action RPGs but I can play almost any genre e.g. Transistor is £3.74 which I think is a steal :)

shinoff21831009d ago

Check out earthlock. Its pretty good

Old school jrpg try cosmic star heroine I really like that one

Aloymetal1009d ago

Disco elysium, man eater, inside, limbo
Dead cells, observer, to name a few

LoveSpuds1009d ago

Don't sleep on Darkest Dungeon, Child of Morta or Spiritfarer.

Although it won't be on sale, the best indie I have ever played is release in a week or so, it may be 20 quid but you have to play Hades.

GhostofHorizon1009d ago

Told my partner to stop me from browsing. We'll see how that goes, the first part of the sale already got me.

ElvisHuxley1009d ago (Edited 1009d ago )

Anthem 85% off? Thought they went free to play. Has the game gotten any better?
Edit-Nvm, it's Europe anyway.

Hellcat20201009d ago

The second phase of sales is for all regions
It's just not yet showing up in the ps store

Servbot411009d ago

They abandoned Anthem. Typical EA.

CobraKai1009d ago

I can’t believe they’re still trying to sell it

BioShockGX1009d ago

Got Anthem for $5 last year. Not a bad game for that price lol

ElvisHuxley1007d ago

Appreciate the downvotes folks. I guess merely asking a question bothers the incredibly mature users here.

I might finally go for Black Desert. I've been playing ESO (without MTing my characters) for some throw away entertainment, but the combat is so "#$&&%.

Servbot411009d ago

BDO sucks. Only good for the character creator.

anast1009d ago

Is the combat worth it?

Phoenixryu1009d ago

I tried BDO a few months ago. It's a decent game but I got bored of it pretty quickly. Combat is very action-based, it's fun but very repetitive. There are a lot of menus and most of the in-game systems are a bit more complicated than they needed to be. Some game modes won't let you buy and sell certain items until you convert to a different mode etc. Basically, the game is kind of convoluted.

phoenixwing1009d ago

The mobs barely react in bdo. You can kill half of a mob of enemies before they'll even attack. You'll basically be grinding mobs until you can fight a boss that will even react well. Don't recommend it

anast1008d ago

Thanks. Is there an alternative to ESO?

phoenixwing1008d ago

@anast I'd recommend playing the single player version of es if you haven't exhausted your playthroughs

EvertonFC1009d ago

Highly recommend the "metro saga bundle" £25 all 3 games and all DLC plus free upgrade for ps5 exodus 😊
