Damn I thought we would see PS2 games long before they do PS4 lol.
This is great tho. Now people will be able actually stream higher quality versions of stuff like Uncharted and TLOU instead of those old shitty PS3 versions. And ofc Bloodborne along with all the newer stuff will be nice if/when they put it in there. I'll definitely be checking out the service for a few months now. Its actually worth it.

It's on par with it, for most it seems. I can't imagine someone who liked HR not liking MD.
Maybe liking it a little less, but not in any sort of extreme way where they feel it's terrible or anything. I personally preferred it to the first game, since it made action routes far more viable I felt.
Posted a pretty large bump to my thread about attractive Steam badges. Might be of interest to some here

Guess i need all Nekopara Badges
Square Enix is already on it. They will drop it two years from now on Steam, for 69.99, without any PR whatsoever.

I bet the new Metal Gear zombie game will get cancelled.

They have been very quiet about it, so maybe.
Quiet.... hehehe
They should cancel it. If Konami wants to redeem themselves they need to put all efforts into making a proper MGS6 game without Kojima.

If loading time is based on streaming data from disk, then yes. That's the main reason that SSDs usually significantly improve load time.
Since 7200 RPM is faster than 5400 RPM, load time would be decreased (faster loads) as long as the CPU or RAM aren't bottlenecks. Probably not a significant increase, though.(Certainly not as much as going from a hard drive to an SSD.)

Given what they showed for Survive idk if they're up to it. The MGS3 pachislot graphics were tight though. They could have focused on making it a proper remake.
I'd love to craft some of these but then my level color would change, and I like it being red atm since it matches the avy. Oh well. Edit: next one is at level 110 (!).

I bet they're just gonna dump the game out one day, still looking and playing the way it did in the demo videos, and full of micro transactions.

That's quite a literal fuck you for some Asian regions Steam users.
Our only options now are:
1. Move to another country
2. Buy a PS4 and the game
3. Pirate
It's crazy.

I haven't gotten that. Than again I used a VPN with a Us PayPal.

But you know that won't happen. Seems like Konami is averse to commiting large amount of time and money. They are going to use existing assets and milk whatever profit they could.

it's better than human revolution in almost every regard, like better gameplay, combat, level design, better hub (if not a little too big), more attention to detail. it also has a great art direction like hr with both games having amazing soundtracks.
however, the things i thought mankind divided utterly failed were the (cut in half) story, scope and characters, which coincidently are the very things i love the most about deus ex.
so yeah, even though mankind is the better (playing) game with more polished gameplay and more player freedom, i still prefer human revolution for its narrative aspects. but still, md is my 2016 goty and very well worth the 12,79 it's now on greenmangaming.com

They retroactively checked your IP and cancelled your preorder? That's crazy! Try your luck on HB? It hasn't cancelled mine. And I've used VPN to buy bundles before.
SE had runtime lock on certain games even after the implementation of ACRTAG restriction, selling at first world unlocked prices, but I guess that's just old management mindset. This near continent wide lock reeks of Sony moneyhat but it's not like SE hasn't done this before, several FF games were absent because fuck you.
Can't you unlock it with a VPN or is it runtime locked too?

I guess that's another way to purchase the game, but not really an option for me unfortunately.
It's taken from the Nier thread, not mine. Someone (whose regions is also locked) tried purchasing the game from GMG.
And yeah, it seems that the system check our IP and will cancel the pre-order. That's some dedication from them.
Nope. I tried it and got this:

If they're only checking IP addresses it should be trivial to bypass (assuming the keys themselves aren't region locked). The new Opera browser for example has a free VPN built-in.
Some places will check the location of payment though, and I've read PayPal has frozen various users' accounts for using VPNs since it supposedly violates their ToS. Apparently some here haven't experienced this though so maybe things have changed?

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
maybe because of sales difference? like people buying in asian stores since they're cheaper
but then aren't the keys already region locked?

Generally more of the same, if you can accept that the narrative is of a smaller scale. No longer a globe spanning revenge tale, it's more about uncovering the terrorist actions in Prague. Environments are just a thousand times better to look at and dense with art though.
I hope not. I want some more MGSV sandbox goodness.

It's rich coming from GMG of all retailers, caring so much about the well-being of publishers.
Well the silver lining is Nier is not runtime locked nor is it activation locked (which a VPN could bypass).
There are no Asian stores, no Asian retail release. Asians can't buy it, period.
Can you send money to other people's PayPal? Though that voucher is dead.

But Crash was better than Banjo back then, I'm sure it still is now that we're out of the big empty world collectathon era.

That thing is just one big cheat, but man is it so fun to have a playthrough where you're effectively using an authentically handling video game lightsaber on everything.
I found the last boss brilliant because it was incorporating your skills in blade time and stepped it up in a way that you weren't expected to up until then. I found it funny how much of a hard time people had on it. The boss fights are like the exclamation points to all the chapters in Rising, so bringing up Bayonetta there as a better example I'd disagree, since they're all generally just huge lumbering abstract beasts in that game that don't utilize the moment-to-moment as well as the general fights.
You know, I'm really pleased with my little Alienware Alpha. It was the lowest tier one and all I've done is added some more RAM, and it still keeps up fairly well with most games. Mankind Divided running fine on High settings. The only problem I've really run into was having to run the Wildlands beta on medium.

So Crash probably isn't coming to PC. Not that I ever expected it to but someone posted it might be a few days ago.

Doesn't Activision still own the rights? Playstation might get a timed exclusive, but I'm sure it will pop up on PC sooner or later.
Why is this even still a fucking debate after this tweet?
https://twitter.com/PlayStationIE/status/834336383112212480
It's a timed exclusive.
I'm in partial agreement with White Wolf - MD's story is poor, and the characters are lifeless. I cannot think of anyone with the same depth as Malik in MD.
Where I disagree with White Wolf is in MD having better level design - I thought it was pretty boring. *shrugs*
Either way you cut it, it's not as good as HR. It's worth playing, but seriously lower your expectations for it.

listen to the mad man
(because playstation ireland, along with playstation serbia and playstation burkina faso and playstation isis, don't know shit about shit?)
So an official playstation account isn't a reliable source of information? Am I missing something here?
It's nice that Valve's finally added some nuance to key revocations:
Previously, there was just the one message, so even when a beta ended, people would be told that there was a payment processing error, which made no sense and caused some concern that user account standings had been affected.
That tweet was actually published after the very same account "confirmed" PS4 exclusivity, suggesting there was a call from somewhere higher up to issue a correction.

and it sure as hell aint coming to xbone cause sony franchise
so PC is the only other option
Or they could port the Metal Gear Legacy Collection to Xbox One, PS4 and PC instead. That would be something for MGS fans to enjoy at least.

It's an official account for PlayStation Ireland, yes.
