I still play off and on usually checking in when there's a patch or an event going on just to see what the deal is. I've never done one of the raids before so if we could get a crew together to try it I'd definitely be up for it. I'd be bringing a Spider-Gwen to the party as she's my only decently geared character, although I don't know how the tough the entry raids are or if any specific gear is required.

It seemed okay based off what I played from the beta but content offering seems very lean for $60. It's a little odd games like Rainbow Six Siege and Star Wars Battlefront got blasted for being full price products and having no single player component but this seems to largely be getting a pass.

When I was eight I substituted orange juice in for milk in a bowl of Count Chocula and thought I was onto something because I didn’t know shit.

You were definitely on to something.

If it had been 3rd person like Monday Night Combat so I could really enjoy the spectacle of the characters and all the crazy stuff happening around me I think I would really enjoy it, but as is I have zero interest in another 1st person shooter no matter the window dressing.

I was just about to say FF8. Other than the fact that I didn't like any of the characters or the gameplay, the part that really got me was the orphanage. That every character knew each other they just couldn't recall it. Ugh.

So much this, that moment was incredibly bad. Oh we all grew up together but forgot because of using Guardian Forces! I quit playing not long after that and never bothered to go back.

I've been wondering what Sony Santa Monica has been up to all this time and even as a God of War fan I'm kind of disappointed in this especially with them just reusing Kratos. As talented as the folks are there I have to imagine there are other things they could have come up with.

I was real excited about the prospects of these headsets but as the mystery around VR fades I have become less and less excited. Yesterday's showcase was just underwhelming. I hear the argument that this is early times but I feel like all of these games could be played outside of VR on a screen with little change, so the question becomes what's the point?

Took the words right out of my mouth. As the launches got closer I felt myself getting caught up in the hype and possibilities to the point I was thinking of upgrading my PC or putting down money for a Playstation VR pre-order but after watching the stream yesterday my interest is dead at this point. Having a screen stuck to my face while I play with a controller like I have the past 30 years just seems incredibly lame and not the groundbreaking technology this was touted as.

I fear that like 3D a few years ago if they don't right this ship quick and demonstrate why people need this or produce some killer apps it's going to fade away and they'll have to try and re-launch VR again in 10-15 years when people have forgotten how bad the initial tech was and are willing to give it another shot.

That's a bummer if true. Recently picked up Driveclub along with the bikes expansion and I've been enjoying it a lot. Good luck to the employees there, hope they land on their feet.

Very excited for this as I haven't been playing much since my friends computer died. Look forward to meeting some new duders and playing with you all.
