It's been a banner year for games, but there's one curious omission from GOTY contention
INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series , will debut never-before-seen games & content updates across more than 100 titles on May 25th.
With all the PlayStation games that are now coming to PC, is it time for Sony to release a dedicated PC launcher?
Unless they are trying to kill their recently created PC business, I would advise against opening a dedicated PC store. It's an extremely hard endeavor, and people, in general, are very comfortable with Steam. Even Epic, with their billions of dollars invested, is still struggling to find a foothold, and they have Fortnite.
Can tell who ever put this together is not all that clued up on pc gaming.
It's just a known fact. The PC gaming community prefer Steam and Steam alone. They don't like different launchers. I personally don't mind them. But majority just stick with steam. Hence why EA and Ubisoft went back to on releasing on steam and why Microsoft release games on steam as people hated buying from the windows store.
The only other launchers that I imagine are doing ok is GOG due to being drm free and epic games due to the free games every week. Sony shouldn't release any sort of pc launcher n
This is just another ridiculous double standard article.
It's like how Microsoft can spend 20 years of making nothing but gaas and live service style games to sell microtransactions, dlc and subscriptions and get praise for doing it, but if Sony wants to make a single game like that every website under the sun is writing articles saying how Sony is anti-consumer or whatever.
"The best games of the year and the creative teams behind them were in the spotlight at the grand award ceremony of the German Computer Game Award 2024." - German Computer Game Awards.
I haven’t played it but I agree it should have had a chance at least . Returnal should have had a chance too. Oh well the awards show is cringe and the reveals were ok but I have little interest in Geoff and the show . He overhyped and didn’t deliver again . It wasn’t totally horrible but I won’t watch next year I’ll just look at the “highlights” or lack of after the show . Comment above me disappeared . Strange
No it doesn't. It deserves a "best racing game" nomination which it received and won. And before the xbox horde descends upon me as usual I would say the exact same thing about Gran Turismo no matter how amazing it turned out to be.
You misspelled Returnal.
It won 3 awards which is the highest tally tied with It Takes Two
Man I’m telling you right now. I love Horizon on my series X. I finessed cars I should not have from the market for super cheap in week one.
However…
On NO planet should it have gotten best sound design over Returnal NOR ratchet. How does ANY racing game get best sound design period? How much better can a engine sound? It really is pointless, but I’m going to tell you. It’s like VR. It’s easy to discount if you haven’t experienced it. Once you’ve used it, it’s eye opening. Returnal is the best game I have ever heard. PC, Xbox, PlayStation, whatever you want. Simple white and black 3D audio headset and returnal. Set up your tempest audios settings in the options so it goes with your ear.
ONLY excuse is Returnal is so hard that people didn’t hear half of what I did. (I beat it in just a few deaths). Even then though, first biome, first level. Pause the freaking game. The rain on the suit. The sound of the world. The music. Man that game got raped. At least it got ONE. Ratchet though? Now that’s rape.
