2019 was an incredible year for games all around.
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.
"So here we are at the end of 2019, then: who won this year? Nintendo did, and if you don’t agree, you are far too embedded in console war narratives, and there is no getting through to you. And, in an unexpected break from routine, Xbox ended up beating PlayStation to take the (admittedly weak) silver, while PS4 settled in last place."
Well what an asshole site Gamingbolt is.
“Technically, this is the year before the launch of the next generation consoles – traditionally, such years see game releases dry up, and console manufacturers’ attention shift squarely to readying the successors that are inevitably coming”
Lolwut? The year before next gen has never diminished in quality. In fact some of the best games in a system’s life tends to come out in the year before the next gen
3rd gen: 1987-1991 had some of the best titles
4th gen: 1993-1996 had some of the best titles
5th gen: 1998-2001 had some of the best titles
6th gen: 2004-2006 had some of the best titles
7th gen: 2011-2013 had some of the best titles
Where’s the logic in that statement of current gen software drying up
Hmmm... yes....yes Nintendo won, ok. Now for Sony I also agree. Days Gone and Death Stranding didn't impress as expected. Neither was Concrete Genie or Medievil. Microsoft ended with Gears yes, I see it ending on a positive note, but this whole year was mess all around. Anthem76, Andromeda.
On the other hand Capcom was fantastic.

No one really had a big year imo, so this is the tallest midget at the circus contest
