    Nah there's a bigger chance of Halo coming to PS5 if MS recent moves are anything to go by.

    Sorry my comment was written poorly, I meant it was my fave Bethesda published game from last year. It really did surprise me how good it was.

    Definitely grab it, played it on Xbox last year and it turned out to be one of my games. Certainly my fave Bethesda published game that's for sure, sorry Starfield.

    The Sega Dreamcast
  • Boldizzle Boldizzle 6mo ago 100%

    Oh I definitely don't disagree, FF7, Resident Evil and Metal Gear Solid all cemented PlayStation as a force to be reckoned with for suren and can be considered killer apps. I just remember for me getting a PlayStation personally being just wowed by the likes of Crash Bandicoot and Tekken. Fond memories for sure!

    The Sega Dreamcast
  • Boldizzle Boldizzle 6mo ago 100%

    PlayStation's killer app was likely Crash Bandicoot as that game paved the way for Sony (games like Wipeout, Ridge Racer and Tekken helped too) and gave them some real momentum, it just got better from there. I still remember playing the Demo of Crash and being absolutely blown away.

    By the time FF7 released, the Nintendo 64 had launched so that probably contributed to the Saturn's downfall as well.

    The Sega Dreamcast
  • Boldizzle Boldizzle 6mo ago 100%

    I'm pretty sure I read or saw a documentary that basically said the downfall of Sega started with Sega of Japan starting to take more control and override Sega of America. I think that's how we ended up with the Sega Saturn and the failure of that console really didn't help the Dreamcast at all.

    If you loved Crisis Core then yes. This game has similar combat although a lot more advanced.

    Yeah I hate being this guy but like someone else said, you're likely not playing it right. The only enemies that should be somewhat slow to take down are bosses.
    But otherwise it's about how you use your abilities, using all your party members abilities, materia setup, etc. Also make sure someone has the Assess materia equipped and Assess every enemy you fight so that you know exactly what to do to pressure an enemy and then stagger them and what their weaknesses are.

    The combat in this game is incredibly complex and might be the best version of real time/turn based I've ever seen.

    What gets me with this game is how well they do the finer details. Like when you enter the depths and your flashlight switches in but it blinks a couple times before staying on. I know it's a small thing but I love little details like that.

    Been a pretty good day. Went out for morning tea then came home, played games and now watching Fellowship of the Ring with my wife as she hated it when it first came out but has since got into fantasy things so wanted to give it another chance.

    Yeah I can understand why rich selfish assholes would vote conservative. It always baffles me that struggling lower class dumb asses do it though.

  • This is for AUS/NZ but I do know it disappeared worldwide from the MS Rewards program around when the price increase was announced so I was pleasantly surprised to see it back on there and for the same amount of points as before.

    So I'm a New Zealander and I have a pretty good idea on how the electoral college system works but it honestly sounds like something that can be easily corrupted and it feels like it renders the popular vote absolutely useless unless I'm totally missing something obvious? So yeah if someone could explain to me what the benefits of such a system are, that would be awesome. Edit - Thanks for the replies so far, already learning a lot!

    This is my first Lemmy post but thought I'd share a recent metal cover I did of Geese Howard's battle theme from Fatal Fury as well as his pre-fight song. Forgive the sloppy mix, I'm not really that experienced in the mixing department but otherwise I'm pretty happy with this. Hope you enjoy!
