    Hey, for an AAA game there is a serious lack of a launcher, issues with kernel level anti cheat, creating a separate account and a 30 gigabyte update.

    The fact that it’s impossible to die reminded me of that Wolverine motorcycle game.

      It’s impossible to die? I just played it without using the yellow diamonds. I didn’t try to intentionally hit a mine though.

      Yeah but if you play the prequel without reading the novella first then what are you even doing with your life.

      All right first you’re gonna need to track down a Nokia N-gage, then what you’re gonna wanna do is take the battery out…

      I think for new players it makes most sense to play them in release order and then for a second playthrough go chronologically.

    This is just Halo 3 on easy. Where is the DLC? The in game currencies? Rare lootbox skins? Forced online pvp with ranked rewards?

    And what is happening the flags should waving in different directions thanks to DLSS5.

      That’s where “AAA” developers are heading next. Consoles and PCs are gonna be dead due to component costs. Phones are gonna be the new target.

    We can have quadruple A game in a browser but we have to download an app just so we can get an appointment.

    Also the lack of QTE is disappointing, 7/10.

    This is fantastic! Wonderfully done and funny. Thank you!🙏

    Minesweeper is the GOAT of all timewasters. GTA6 is going to have a run for its money. Physical release?
