> Aloy better be back as well. You don't make a character this awesome and just go, "you liked this character? Well too bad, here's another!" New MC might not be as awesome

Well I'm sure you thought this was a compliment.

FFS... No.
There are plenty of other games that offer this and are designed around it. It doesn't need to be shoehorned into every single game type in existence.

Collector's edition available again for preorder at Amazon. For Prime members, that comes out to $96 before taxes.

I'm not for co-op as well. But I feel like they could build some kind of online trading thing among tribes. Since I heard the game has a lot of tribes, it'd be cool if you could do resource/material trading online to strengthen your tribes outpost/hideout. Something that minor I'd be down for.

I'll add, based on what I've seen:
> Flying mounts. (need to improve the streaming engine)
> Include the concept art that didn't make it into the game for time, budget, or sequels reasons. (looking at you Suchomimus robot)
> Develop the machine vs machine scenarios, allow us to control bigger machines to engage bigger threats. (make it an end game reward)
Not sure about a co-op though.

Probably Uncharted 4. I don't really know much about the exclusives.
I don't have a 4k TV yet, but will be getting one eventually. Should I just buy a standard PS4 or go for the Pro?
Just buy it for the best exclusives that you're interested. No need to over do it. It just so happens that some of the PS4 exclusives also happens be the best or near the best in their genre (TLoU, Uncharted 4, Bloodborne and perhaps Horizon now lol). I'd also consider Ratchet and Clank. It's more TPS than platformer, but it's fun and there's not much out there like it?
> Aloy better be back as well. You don't make a character this awesome and just go, "you liked this character? Well too bad, here's another!" New MC might not be as awesome
She will be back but there is 50% chance we will get a new character. that's why i said a buddy system may work where you can fully customise the other one, so that we can switch between Aloy and the other character.
I know its just speculation and all that.
What other open world game with combat like that provide this , i am not talking games like GRW or A:unity!!
Also that is why i was also looking forward to the Scalebound!!

That's why one buys Horizon, Bloodborne and Uncharted 1-4.

If they did co-op, I'd rather it be only a separate arena/horde like mode that you can also play solo. Def would love to see flying mounts one day.

Man, reviews of this game made me go from my 7-8 consensus expectations to pre-ordering a copy today. I was always attracted to the art style, the decision to go with a female lead, and hoped for the best, but I've never really felt that Guerrilla Games has ever cranked out anything special before with any of their Killzone games. This is truly the best possible outcome from where I stood on the game prior to the review embargo going up, and it sounds like this game is actually going to be mostly what I hoped it could be.
Really can't wait to play this game, and I say that as a lifelong Zelda fan that's got an exciting new Zelda game just a few days later. Originally, the decision to pass this over and just play Zelda was easy, but almost all of my trusted sources weighed in heavy on the positive outlook for Horizon, and now I'm all aboard. Can't wait to play it myself, and hoping Guerrilla Games can ride this momentum to further greatness in the future -- they're a developer I've had a hard time finding appreciation for, but I've never wanted them to fail.

It doesn't seem like it. Among the leaked concept art, it was the one I was looking forward the most. Life is cruel...
...till Horizon 2.

and Gravity Rush Remastered, Gravity Rush 2, Infamous: Second Son, Resogun, DriveClub, etc...
Which one is that ??

Slim is much cheaper, but you can't go wrong either way really, most of the exclusives run great on the standard model, the couple that don't, don't really benefit much from the Pro. Up to you really.
Horizon is the first real game to really utilize the Pro though and is probably a sign of things to come.

Btw, when you respond to vivek make sure you show the pics of both the leaked thunderjaw and suchominus concept art so people won't keep confusing the two

What picture are we talking about?
Ofcourse but better to actually want what's there instead of just buying it to justify your purchase. PS4 has an excellent library though so should cover most.

I guess I'll wait for a trade-in deal at Gamestop and I'll unload my PS3 and 360 for a PS4 Pro.
As a former TGWTG/Channel Awesome fan, I can't stand Joe's angry shoutyman style of reviewing.

Oh, I wouldn't mind a robot Titanoboa and more mammal-looking machines either. (gorilla, elephants, giant bats, etc.)

In the metacritic predictions thread I made my guess and then made a bold guess for each game (that doesn't count towards the thread). This ended up right between them (my regular guess was 85 and my bold guess was 92).

It seems Guerilla really knocked it out of the park with this one! Hopefully the game's sales will reflect its quality.

Can you please go to the spoiler thread, this is the review thread.

Read the bolded, I wasn't talking about his disdain for AJ.
"They talk like real gamers" is one of the worst things you could say about a Youtube Channel. And it also speaks volume about that person as well.
Also considering the only thing I know about Kinda Funny are the Colin Moriarty threads, such a comment just reinforces my perception. Sticking with Easy Allies forever anyway (which he probably wouldn't consider "reel gaemerz") <3
Obviously I've got the game preordered but I still have trouble believing the story can be that good. Need to stop reading The Lamp's impression and be patient !

Do we know how many quests are rewarded with unique gear/materials? Even if its soon outlevelled, its always nice to get more than xp or trash items for doing a quest.

I always thought that was just another design concept for the Thunderjaw.
Also, mammal inspired machines would definitely be awesome. And maybe some underwater gameplay with more aquatic machines like a giant whale. Sharks and squids too.
I always thought they skip the idea due to the similarities between him and the Thunderjaw. they both looks almost same.
We are thoughting same
Didn't play the game, but I would hope a sequel expands melee gameplay immensely, and introduce SoTC giant Robo fights for you take partake in.
^^
Something like that, but don't make it coop or npc based. I want to feel powerless trying to take the thing down by myself.
hmm so monster hunter X Horizon X dragon dogma

Honestly, there's not much anger or shouting going on through the majority of his reviews. In fact most of his stuff is very well articulated with a few skits thrown in.

Um, im pretty
sure giant enemies are in the game and are an important, challenging part of it. Apparently many of them roam at will and are optional, not unlike free-roaming colossi.
I've been avoiding spoilers but saw a couple of mentions of this in the early impressions thread.
^^ I am assuming tallnecks are the tallest of the robots in the game. I want something bigger, in the vein of the second colossus.
