@gifford38: You get scores while we get tons of games on PC. Ori is something special. PC gaming is huge. The day PC will get proper coverage you'll see 10s from left and right. Covering PC games is no easy task.
bragging about a 2d game which is the only good game Microsoft put out all year. while we have 2 tens on the front page.
that is ok we will get half life vr on ps4 or 5 any ways which leave you xbox fans bragging about a 2d game.
listen I don't know if it is such a good idea to compare vr games with pancake games, I mean what are you comparing, when I play my xbox (or another console for that matter) I either play a laid back game, or I indulge myself into multiplayer action.
Vr cannot give you that, even if I play a laid back game, I'm still stuck with that thing on my head. Multiplayer action is not the same as it is on a console as well. I have played chess online in vr and while this is certainly a very laid back experience, it is just not as fleshed out as on pancake systems.
Having said that, pancakes systems cannot give you the same experience as with vr as well. Playing skyrim, borderlands fallout, or watching a movie in theatre in big screen beta, is experienced in such a different plane that we're just talking about different universes.
what you can compare though is the psvr and pcvr systems, and yeah it is that bad as in comparing the playstation in the nineties with 3dfx cards, yeah then we also had halflife, and we also had way better controls (mouse vs controller), the analog sticks were not as good as they were now, and playing on the 480p tv vs monitors that supported some sort of hd.
Well the difference in quality is just as huge, the tracking on the psvr is shit, the controllers are shit, and the hardware and resolution is even shittier. Yeah sure you might get halflife on the ps5 but by that time vr will already have taken a step further. Heck I sure hope sony releases a vr headset that can compete with the pc systems, but how is it going to power it, the ps5 doesn't even reach the tflops the 1080ti has, and any decent vr game already challenges that with current generation headsets.

im a laid back player as well and still manage to do the same with the psvr head set. its light. i was just saying to the person who made this thread bragging saying oni is better than half-life and final fantasy because its rated higher. he can't compare a 2d game to two huge high budget profile games.
@virusvaccine21: DLC lol. It ended up selling worse than expectations in Japan.
It didn't though. Royal didn't sell much less than P5 did in Japan. P5 sold 580K+ in Japan, while Royal sold 400K+ in Japan. Of course P5's worldwide sales are much higher (3.2M+), but that's because P5 was a much bigger success outside of Japan, far exceeding expectations with overseas sales (2.6M+) over four times higher than Japan sales.

Wow, 3 million. That's so great to hear. Honestly, I can't wait for the sixth installment.
Alyx and Ori's score wasn't surprising, both from a great series with the negative VR talk from people who've never used VR or have any basic concept of Valve's quality, wasn't exactly big-brain rocket science.
Final Fantasy is doing better than expected given how the series was never good.
Dictating a rule that excludes the obvious indication otherwise, then immediately introducing that outside source in the very next line to further self-validate.
Cowspot is really a joke of a site for the last six years. These clowns are so bias its a joke. They gave Ori 2 an 8 what a bunch of asshats and don't give me that oh it had bugs because even if it was perfect these shites would never give an Xbox game a 10.
Cows flip flop to which ever sites gets the higher Score! LMFAO!
Final Fantasy VII Remake’s Easy Mode Is Way Too Easy and Its Hard Mode Is Way Too Hard
Once upon a time there was a game called Final Fantasy VII Remake. I booted up the game and saw on the start menu there were three difficulty settings.
First, I selected Easy Mode. Boy was I in for a surprise. Who would have thought something called Easy Mode would be easy? Felt like a walk in the forest. A series known for its tactical combat reduced to a mere button masher. This mode is too easy!
Second, I attempted Hard Mode. This mode was overwhelmingly difficult — removing the ability to use items whatsoever in or out of combat. No potions. Nothing. The normal battle meta is thrown out the window for something mind-numbingly frustrating. I don’t understand how anyone could find fun with this. It’s just too hard!
Then finally, I tried the last difficulty setting — Normal Mode. Wow. What a mode. This average difficulty balances everything. When facing powerful boss battles, you need to juggle normal and special attacks, destructive and healing magics, and strategically exploit enemy weaknesses. It’s a challenge for sure, but never feels cheap and it is very rewarding to beat. This mode feels just right.
Now I just hope the family of bears who own this PlayStation 4 don’t find out I’ve broken into their home and started playing their new game!
@Jag85: Not really gonna comment as haven't played the game and probably won't, at least for a while.
Mean different opinions (from different columnist) if fine, but it's that they rely on the absolute most extreme hot-takes driveling out shit like they think it's profound new testament.
