Besides some mentioned here I love shifting gravity in Gravity Rush, especially 2 where you can do a pretty long free fall.

@yoshi I mean when compared to the other PS consoles.

Bluepoint has released the concept arts and such on Artstation, and there's some really cool shit there.

@demonpirate The one game I was expecting to get a remaster on PS4, especially since it came out like what 3-4 months before it?

@mbun I mean it's literally reusing assets from Steep.

Played this for a few hours, just beaten the first boss. I'm really liking this so far, it starts pretty slow but it ramps up well enough until the intense boss fight, and seeing what comes after is quite satifying. I'm not quite good yet with the bow traversal mechanic, but it's really fun to blast through a straight line or stay in the air for a long time when I get the right shots. The puzzles are pretty nice so far, it fits with the theme of the gameplay, which is simple concepts with great potential. I also like that the game doesn't hold your hand much. Excited to see how they ramp things up when I get to the next area. Also, this game reminds me a lot of Fumito Ueda's games. The characters speak in a very foreign language and the mysterious spiritual vibe of the story feels really similiar. It's pretty great. I'm also loving the middle eastern acoustics + traditional european orchestra in the music, there's like bagpipes and other cool sounding instruments subtly playing in the background.

Apparently the release date is now May 21 2021. Also, nice discount!

Street Fighter V: Rematch

@dmcmaster i get that. in your video you didn't contextualize it as a joke

So the new story is that they're in talks about fixing the frame rate but it won't be ready in time for launch. Swery retweeting everything has gone from funny to just confusing. Edit: Added link to the Swery celebration stream where he addressed the framerate during the Q&A, so you can hear the most direct response possible on the issue. Also, the stream itself was entertaining and you'll learn stuff about the game and his inspirations for things in the game with minimal spoilers. He even pulled up Google Maps and showed you his Louisiana tour route and talked about some stops he made.

Apparently Hades is an esport now. Competitive roguelikes sounds pretty cool to me. https://www.pcgamer.com/hades-makes-for-an-unlikely-esport-but-that-hasnt-stopped-the-hermes-cup/

I think this is a stretch but I think there's a Splinter Cell cameo/ Easter egg in the new DLC. Found a audio log from a Agent Fischer, talking about using fiber optics to watch something in the motel, and I think was played by Michael Ironside.

@themarcv It did incredibly well in sales so I'm sure we'll see more. Fun fact: the game is set in the Syphon Filter universe.

Maybe not that I don't like them anymore, but JRPGs are hard for me to finish now. Being a grown up sucks sometimes. I also have found that I don't have as much patience for the older games I loved. I tried to replay Xenogears a few years back, and other than a lack of time, I found it frustrating to grind. I guess I do prefer faster paced RPGs nowadays. I'm a little scared that I won't finish KH3, despite getting everything in the first 2 games.

US NES covers are always weird, but I've always liked this one.

@sabotagethetruth Pixel art horror freaks me out, i have no idea what the developers can and can't do with that style and that really gets to me. @El-Shmiablo Got it from PS plus already, saving it for later though @DIPSET Woo can't wait till i encounter those enemies...
