I really want everyone to know how much more Titanfall 2 sold than Nioh. It was a staggering amount.
Frankly I'm Sony's new AI, so I can post all the time
But you know the AI's tech still isn't mature, so my Engrish is porn

First half of 2017 is just stuuupid haha. Way too many amazing games I actually want to play. R.I.Pieces, dear wallet.

So, I believe it was Nev who predicted a 75 on metacritic. I hope you see that people do appreciate difficulty.
Dissidia, DIssidia IOS, Fire Emblem Warriors , DOAX3 DLC, DOA5 DLC and no idea what else. They seem to be busier lately than usual.

I am. Sony is sadly the one company that will not deal with me so I have to do retail sourcing or otherwise to get it. And this one is late

The guy doing the review for GameSpot stated that he's played nearly 40 hours.
Jesus putting that in perspective, they are way big these days. i cant get away from the older mindset when they were only DOA and NG dev
Call me a cynic but I didn't expect these high scores lol. I just didn't think current video game reviewers would put in the time and patience required for this game. Nor enjoy the non-hand holding challenge. Very glad to be proven wrong, very very glad.

Team Ninja > Platinum.
Not just in gameplay but in all aspects
I pre-order 2 games thru amazon. One of them, I received a code a couple of days before release and I was able to preload. For the other one, the code was sent to me on release day. So I was not able to preload.
Now, I buy PSN cards thru amazon and preorder (or buy) on the playstation store

Nier would sell much more than Nioh in Japan according to COMG
But in western , I doubt Nier would perform as well as Nioh because everyone would be busy with Horizon vs Zelda when it release
Might be a controversial opinion on GAF but pound for pound, I'd take the current Team Ninja over the current Platinum team any day of the week. Both are amazingly talented in the combat/animations department.

I think Team Ninja has always been better. NG3RE was a better game than anything Platinum has ever made.

I love Pokken!
So about 25 hours then. Thanks
How spoilery is this? Also a new thread for this would be great, thanks!
NG3RE was a decent fun game, but that's coming off of NG3, one of the absolute WORST character action games of all time.
Platinum has made Bayonetta 1 and 2, as well as Nier A which is a very promising game based on the demo.
What your saying here is needlessly inflammatory
Yeah ha ha. I wonder what Itagaki thinks about all this...
I would have said you were right sometime years ago, but after a few years of critically and commercially Soulsborne era, i think reviewers are more open to dedicate time and efforts to actually complete more challenging games when they show potential.
From Software definitely brought back a slice of "hardcore" in the whole industry.
Perfect, thanks! Still dont know if i should buy a PS4 Pro for this or not :/

Random Q:
Is it pronounced "Nie-Oh" or "Neo"?

85ish is pretty much what I expected. Although not enough reviews are in yet, but it seems to be on track. Would have only been worried if it was in the lower 70s due to a lack of variety.
The latter.
Even longer if the combat and weapon/build variety is fun enough for a repeat.

It took Eurogamer 40 hours to beat the main story...

It's a shame that I don't have much time to play and my backlog is huge. I'll wait some time before I buy it.

Do it and most other games will run and look better. I bought mine for BF1

Nice reviews so far. 2017 starting off well for games

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
Bayonetta 1 and 2 are in the upper echelons of character action games. Ninja Gaiden Black is up there, DMC3 is up there.
Ninja Gaiden 2 was good but flawed. NG3RE is a mess.

Keep in mind that it's a review in progress so he hasn't finished it yet.
^^Hyyyyype!
Something tells me this game is not like the others with completion time estimates.
Thank the heavens for From Software. BB still holds a special place in me heart.
Brilliant and very in depth video. Thanks.

Good reception for NiOh and Horizon has shot them both up!
Damn, it's doing better than Horizon for now.

Damn, nice.
Spoilery yes, but it looks like you actually
travel back to Europe at some point judging by that gloomy-ass castle and Western swordsman attacking you!? Fucking awesome.
Also in case people were wondering, according to the analysis, there have been huge improvements on the technical side since the Alpha. Load times after death are also close to non-existent.
Eh I think it depends what you like. I like hack-and-slash games and I've enjoyed DMC but nothing comes close to the visceral thrill of Ninja Gaiden combat. So for me I would put even Razor's Edge above pretty much anything. Haven't played Bayoneta only MGR and that I did not rate at all so don't rate Platinum too highly.
