I don’t use twitter for anything gaming related anymore. The trash gets amplified so much nowadays. I barely use twitter at all anymore tbh. Musk really trashed the place.

I really hope Microsoft do push Perfect Dark/Joanna Dark as i reckon potentially she could become one of the faces of the brand, especially in this day and age (i dont mean that as a bad thing). I thought Senua couldve been the type of game Hellblade 2 was maybe wasn’t quite going to hit widespread appeal but i reckon Perfect Dark has a better chance.

As for the comments…i imagine its from the same type of people that actually said Halo Studios had given Master Chief a more feminine body :man_facepalming:t6:(not even realising the look was based on his older armour from Halo 1)

The most funny and at the same time pathetic comments are those like that yeah. People that either never ever played the games or just talk out of their ass and didn’t do some research.

Another one was from Silent Hill 2 Remake, some strip club sign was changed to “woke” according to ignorant clowns, and then someone who actually played the original showed how it looked in the original. Which was the same.

Either way, miss Dark looks bad ass!

Just noticed if you search PS5 on the Amazon app, it returns a sponsored result at the top for Xbox lol.

Seems to only be the app - on the website the sponsored result is for the Pro instead.

No idea if it’s just the UK or even just for me, but fair play to Xbox - if someone’s looking at consoles it’s a great time to draw their eye to other options…

Thanks for the wishes everyone. Storm passed my area and everyone is ok. I hope everyone on this forum who is also from Florida is ok as well. Gonna try this metaphore demo now lol

I didn’t look at the older comments and missed your post. Jesus man, can’t imagine what that must be like. But it’s great to read all is well! Enjoy gaming!

I remember one user was concerned. Well, this is perhaps the good idea.

At least it didn’t get delayed to February lmao.

It’ll still release in a bad state tho IMO, adding the whole women’s leagues in the edition they also add the new engine always looked like a very dumb idea.

Well happy it’s releasing on GP, would have skipped this game otherway.

At least November still looks very strong with STALKER 2 and PoE 2

I’ve been playing the series since CM 97/98 yearly, so this feels bad man.

Better a good release in March than a shitty release next month though, they can only get 1 first impression of the new engine and it has to be good or it hurts the franchise forever.

Nice, I’ve loved all the Mechwarrior and MechCommander games - and bought MW5 even though it came to Game Pass.

This was always going to be a game I’d play, as it looks even better than MW5, but I’ll admit I’ve been a little hesitant playing as the Clans as I’m an Inner Sphere boy - GP will allow me to see if the story doesn’t annoy me too much, if it doesn’t then this is a definite buy

Really annoying how Youtube’s shitty algorithm starts “suggesting” me “Gaming Youtube grifter #467” who wants to tell me that Halo is now dead because checks notes there are Black people on the dev team. I know that “gatekeeping” is considered a dirty word but sometimes it can be a good thing. In particular when it comes to keeping culture warrior tourists/ grifters from infecting this hobby and making discussing in just about everywhere into a real headache.

They do look great as characters.

Also, wrestlevotes is basically the Jez or InsiderGaming or Grubb of wrestling insider, so it’s credible source.

It’s become a engagement trend now in gaming started by Grummz and some other guys on twitter, that has been also swallowed up by people with large influence in gaming like Asmongold. Every single game with female characters gets scrutinized for not fitting their standards, hate towards LGBTQ characters and devs. Their ideal game is stellar blade and any game with females with anything less is poisoned. There’s also the trend where games from the East are the last hope and the West is churning out DEI garbage. It all just so grating.

It become so tiring consuming gaming content nowadays, constant hate everywhere. Just search Halo on youtube and you’ll see so many video grifting and spreading hate. And it all started because of Elon, our bastion of free speech.
