I'm buying GOW probably next week. Just know an alt when I see one.
Anyways, PS2 was a great system but a lot of the games did not age well.
Agreed, I tried to play MGS 2 some years back, certainly not up to the level of MGS 1 for the PS1.
FFX, killing monster piranhas with a blitzball underwater? Facepalm.
Only things that I felt was fun was GT3 and GT4.
I remember when I read magazines about the upcoming Dreamcast and PS2, the Dreamcast looked badass and the PS2 was yet to release but they released a smudged picture to keep the hype alive. When they released the picture of PS2 It was mostly "ok" but the part underneath was off-center so it looked a bit strange to me.
Ummmm...Actually they're quite different. With Mario, Nintendo probably could have released M64 clones and gotten away with it, but instead they chose to experiment with different mechanics for Sunshine, Galaxy, and Odyssey. Galaxy is the only Mario game since the SNES era to get a direct sequel. Breath of the Wild outright tears down most of what had become standard for Zelda games. Kirby has tried different mechanics with Planet Robobot and Epic Yarn, not to mention all the minigame themed side titles. Pokemon Sun and Moon explicitly set out to differentiate itself from previous Pokemon titles.
Adding new mechanics and gimmicks do little to prove that they do not play the same as they did 20 years ago... specially since every third person movie game from sony also has different mechanics and gimmicks in place so they all play at least marginally differently from each other.
It's basically the same... But at least sony have been doing this for only two generations, unlike Nintendo, who's done it for 5.
So you're criticizing a platformer for being a platformer?
Zelda changed a lot in the 80's to the 90's, Zelda's top down action and art style is all different to Zelda II Adventure of Link and A Link To The Past changed it back to top down but can you recall ALTTP's gameplay similar to Zelda I? Just the slightest.
get rid of crypto-currency, in many countries crypto-mining operations are being powered by coal-burning power plants and use a shit-ton of power
That's a good point, crypto-currency mining uses power the size of Ireland, and it's growing.
wat
really?
Sorry, I was wrong, it's just the BitCoin network using that much power, in 2017 it used the power equal to Denmark and a year from here, who knows, some have said that crypto-currency might replace gold as a steady currency.
If we shared all food equally all over the globe we might have a chance to survive, 7 billion of us, that's the next goal.
Solar tech, wind tech, ocean tech and reusable energy through friction are still in their cradles but the research is at a point to distribute power more efficiently, especially solar power and reusable energy will have possible breakthroughs until 2025.
Nuclear power has its vulnerabilities and the disposed used nuclear rods takes too much time to defuse, that's why it's hard to make it feasible.
