Devs should have communicated that they were aware of this problems. But they answered none and did not acknowledge any fps problem. Not very clever...
Smart move! It doesn´t matter if they take it or not. They laying the foundation for a lawsuit/case, to make sure Sony whining looks even more ridiculous.
Hard to review if you do not like Rick & Morty or similar, but honestly should you review a soccer game if you do not like soccer? Or a shooting game if you hate shooting? Tricky question!
Party Animals is was amazing when I tried it 2 years ago, probably even better now. Something to look forward to, it was the most wished for game on Steam for a long time and still is in the top five. https://steamdb.info/stats/mostwished/
The offer should be enough, the deal is there. If Sony decide not to take it, they regulators should see it as it was not that important anyway and let MS buy Activision.
I really like Unbound; it is rewarding and offers a good challenge. Physics are very much depended on what car and upgrades you have, how you tweak the handling and how you choose to handle the car. There is a real feeling of progressing in Unbound that is lacking in Forza 5, where start out with high end cars and after som hours you basically have a ton of super cars without even winning any single race.
Unbound and the heat system makes for an exciting and thrilling experience combined with betting, entry fees and very competitive a.i drivers. Forza is more like an interactive car magazine. I like Forza, but I get tired of it so fast.
Graphics in Unbound is nice and the city is custom made to be fun to race in, it´s really sharp with excellent lightning and fun story. Loads of story elements and chatter helps a lot.
You have to commit to Unbound and play at least the first week after the Prologue to get to know the games physics and what is possible. Of course, everyone's opinion differs, but this is how I feel.
It looks great, but horror game is a niche. And it seems to do nothing new or exciting besides the sweet graphics. It is probably fine for lovers of horror but not for many reviewers. They tend to want evolution mostly.
I like horror games where you can move like a normal being and not the typical "I am a fright with leg". There are other ways to create tension. Like a fear system where you fumble more if you are unsuccessful in killing monsters and more stable when you do. Would be more realistic. Or just let us move like a normal human without forced slowness.
I really like the game actually, feels smooth even though it is 30 fps and it looks great. Especially the light and textures. And the gameplay is entertaining as well.
@Snake_V5 Probably worse for Sony if the deals NOT go through. Microsoft could cut off access to loads of content for Sony as it is and even more with exclusive deals.
This game is slow, clunky and boring. Corridors of the same enemies over and over again, overcomplicated shooting mechanics and a more confusing story then Metal Gear Solid without the laters depth.
Kind of interesting that you´ll get 1080p @60fps with a GTX 1060 and the quite a bit more powerful Series X getting the same output,,, Seems like they do not real know the newer consoles that well.
I think Sony makes a mistake in this whole Activision matter. They do not want a pissed MS with Gamepass and Series S/X, streaming and TV-integrations.
Looks very nice and sounds as good, but it is not form me. Tried the first and now this and it is too much "on rails". There is almost only one way to proceed and everywhere there is invisible walls even on the ground.
And the mechanics with metal objects in a crate appearing in every corner is breaking the immersion, combined with guards that when alerted can state in a corner for like minutes or more. Impressive to look at, but less so to play...
Game is great with nice graphics and gameplay. I personally think 30 fps is fine in this game, but a performance mode in 1440p would probably be a wise choice to implement.
I have a Series X and my son a Series S and it amazes me how damn nice Series S is. So tiny yet so powerful. My son plays on a 1080p monitor and very very satisfied (he had a Xbox One before).

Re: The Witcher 3 Next-Gen Release Date, Release Times, Download Size Details On Xbox
@MaccaMUFC I´ll try the 30 fps mode first, cause Witcher plays fine @30 fps in my book. If the difference is neglectable I switch to 60 fps. Exciting

Re: Review: High On Life - Bland Shooting Action Meets Stoner Humour That's An Acquired Taste
Besides the fps roulette the game is so much fun, so if you liked Rick & Morty you probably will have a great time!

Re: Report: US FTC 'Likely' To File Lawsuit Against Xbox's Activision Blizzard Deal

Re: Report: US FTC 'Likely' To File Lawsuit Against Xbox's Activision Blizzard Deal
I think if the deals not going through it means war between Sony and Microsoft. A War that Sony as a company will not go unharmed from!

Re: Four Games Are Available Today With Xbox Game Pass (August 30)
