I'm not big on Sperlunky yet, I still have yet to check it out. It looks like PS4 is getting this game 2 weeks early before steam and is going to capitalize on sales during the launch for die hard Sperlunky fans who want it day one.

I've heard the first one was a pretty fun game some IGN guy was saying it was their favorite indie or something. I'm more of super meat boy, bro force kinda guy myself.

Should I boycott, or simply become a PS fanboy? Sign a petition maybe? 🤔

Two weeks? 🤣🤣🤣

That’s nothing. I seriously doubt that anyone would even care about that.

What? You don't know what you are missing. Two weeks? That is a really long time to go without Spelunky 2. I know you are devastated deep down inside. 😛

Damn.

Definitely one of the bigger indie successes, critically and commercially. One of the better roguelites out there.

It's right there in the OP man.

Unless you mean the "Sony fires back" part, he made that up.

@davillain-: Well at least you don't pretend to care about these indies and call games you don't want to play a backlog like these other herms do.

I tried to get into the original Spelunky a few times but just never got the point. Maybe adding multiplayer and a bigger emphasis on teamwork will work better for me. I'll check it out.

You pretend Sony had anything to do with the game coming 2 weeks later to Steam. Why?

First one was great. Looking forward to this.

Meh, maybe this will become news worthy when Epic swoops in to keep it off Steam a week from release.

None favors playing this game over PS. Can't rule out though we have few fans for it.

@HalcyonScarlet: In his mind it’s a major win for Sony. To everyone else it’s ‘wtf is spelunky?’
