Worked fine for me, but looks way worse then 2020 on Series X, worst are the jaggies. I hate jaggies.... And the environments are a far cry from all the fancy screens and videos you seen from a high end PC.
@G13lx Same here... crashing after pressing "continue"... super annoying. Even unlinked everything but Playstation and Xbox, but still crashes. Annoying!
A lovely remake that upgrades in all the right places. Loads to do with the best DLC from the original included. The upgraded AI creates a more interesting gameplay and it looks way better.
Played it for some hours today and it is great. Always loved AOM for itยดs focus on mythology, makes for a more dynamic and fun gameplay. And a very entertaining story to boot! So happy they delivered!
20 USD for a month is still a steal for what you get. That's like one budget game or a cinema ticket and some snacks in Sweden. Happy to pay that! Just wished they could give us 4k streaming of games like PlayStation.
I have it on PC and it is loads of fun, both in terms of game play and funny characters/dialogue. For the price it is very much a good deal and devoid of political correctness.
Boomer shooters are such stupid term, why not old school shooters or something like that! I am 50 years old and we are the first generation that grow up with gaming from our early years on. Yet we are too young to be boomers! Great game btw.
For playing games included in a digital library sub the PS5 is way way better then Series X right now. Sad to see! Streaming 4k@60 fps when the game support on PS5, on Series X it is always 1080p max. As a 4K-user I never use Xbox Cloud because of that!
It feels natural to do what they do. They need to make money and more people get to play their games. SOT is a prime example that would really benefit from more players.
@StylesT Agree, Forza have a nicer feeling while driving and unlike GT7 it feels when you hit another car. In GT7 I do not feel if a CPU driver touch my car!
Really a joy to see and play. Yakuza have never looked better and the story hooked me almost immediately. And there is a trial of Infinite Wealth included in the game.
