Despite having a 4k tv that I've never fully utilized, I think I'll be pretty happy with my base PS4. My gtx 970 is still no slouch but given that gta5 is still the most graphically demanding thing I use it for (Hellblade looked great but I wasn't very into it), I was very impressed with Uncharted 4.5 and Spiderman on my PS4. No point in buying a new console of the same generation this far into the generation for me. Nnnnnnnh, 9 o'clock can't come soon enough!

I said come in! posted:That game was a lot of fun and I loved the protag. Mafia 3 also has one of the best narrative framing devices I’ve seen in a game in a long time. The actual game itself is janky in parts, but the story and characters more than make up for it.

Bardeh posted:Sub 900p and the worst performance of the four versions, but apparently outside the bigger towns it still holds 30fps pretty steadily. It does look strikingly worse than all the other versions, but if that's the only console you have then it's still apparently perfectly playable and enjoyable. Actually, they said it looks the worse but is actually a bit more stable framerate wise than the PS4. Shocker, I know.

Dapper_Swindler posted:oh gently caress off. don't bitch to me about apathy because a i dont cares about Houser's bullshit writings because he makes some lovely jokes in a video game in the real world while the current crop of GOP ghouls actually gently caress over minorities of every stripe and some loving MAGAChud is trying to be Ted Kaczynski and the president blames everyone but himself. thats the real scary poo poo. not some lovely cynical writings by a liberterian clown in a crime game. You were outright dismissing criticisms from people who take these things seriously as being the very thing right-wing chuds online complain about (ultra PC police, ect.). Art does not exist in a vacuum and it can normalize bad behavior. Calling something problematic isn't the same as calling it bad or the people liking it bad.

Communist Bear posted:The kotaku video is great! It's just this review. And the investigative report into Rockstar the other day. These are the only good things on Kotaku. But seriously that review is probably the best gaming review I've ever read, and it goes into the human cost of creating a game like this, which is a conversation people do need to start having if you consider games an art form.

No poo poo critical theory is good and moron chuds are gonna bitch about any kind of criticism. I don’t count their opinions ever. but some of those critics as well as you to an extent come off as pretty patronizing.

I mean I don't begrudge you wanting an "is this worth what could be an entire day's pay depending on my job" review. Nothing wrong with that. That's fine. I just like the more academic ones that I've been seeing become the norm these days. Hell, some sites don't even give numbers anymore.

What are you even complaining about? Just look them up and find one that suits you best.
