Rex vs Ray owned but it took me a couple of goes to realise most of the weapons were a trap and I should just smash the poo poo out of it instead.

I've mentioned before that I didn't see what the fuss was about but I've also no idea what it was a cover of so.

I just started playing Peace Walker and am I missing something with the boss battles? In the first one I just shot all the troops and a dude popped out of the top I could shoot normally, so I was expecting that to happen with the second one (the first tank), especially since Kaz was shouting 'just worry about the guys' at me, but I shot them all and it just carried on as usual? The only way I could beat it was to take both rocket weapons I had developed with me and, making sure I scored a direct hit on the fuel tank every time, I had just about enough ammo to destroy it.

Though I just realised as I was typing this I could have used the supply drop I totally forgot about for more ammo...

What are conditions for getting a leader to pop out of the tank or whatever to shoot so I can capture it because I just watched a video where that happened after he took out all the dudes but it didn't happen to me and I'm wondering if my game hosed up or not?

Both Niers were great, if Automata doesn't live up to the original it's only because that was a once in a decade game. And the actual game part of Automata is still much better.

I don't want to read all those FFXII posts, but should I get Zodiac Age? I remember enjoying X. I started XV but fell off and would probably need to start that over from the beginning.

12 is one of the least favourite FF games but plenty of other people seem to like it so.

Sadly City Shrouded in Shadow is exactly what it sounds like, there's nothing else to the game other than running around and occasionally avoiding an obstacle while cooler stuff goes on in the background.

That's never going to happen but some people seem to think that at one point it was going to be monetised until they decided against it. That's fairly unlikely though since that would make it the first ever Japanese console game to do a monetised gatcha as far as I'm aware (barring f2p mmo stuff).

i'm loving the poo poo out of it so far. it's basically what i wanted from Mankind Divided and then some, gameplay-wise (and story-wise, though i'm still super early).

side question: should i wait until i have a decent gun or something to go in the Trauma Center? i get owned super hard by those spicy boys every time i try so far.

Eh you can but iirc there a bunch of explosive cylinders in there you can use to take them out fairly effort free. The early game is a lot more about figuring out how to take advantage of the environment to get where you want until you start modding up your weapons a bunch.

No idea about Hitman. That studio and IP split was a weird one, and I don't remember much coming out about the motivations. SE has been oddly cryptic when discussing their financial situation...I remember not too long ago one of their suits saying something like if FFXV didn't set the world on fire, then the whole company was utterly screwed.

And here we are well after release and I'm wondering if it met internal expectations. No idea!

SE have been doing fine for a while, the FF14 revamp and their mobile division print money. FF XV sold like 4 million copies in the first week and was well within expectations.
