Plus, at $8 a month, this is far from a bad list for games you get access to forever, even if you stop paying.

Did this change? It used to be that if your subscription lapsed or ended, they’d still technically be in your library but they’d be locked.

Game looks great, but I’m cautious just because none of the Don’t Nod games I’ve played (Remember Me, Life Is Strange 1, and Vampyr) have clicked well with me.

Did Sony not know what games it had locked in for the rest of the year when it announced its price increase? Nothing against anyone excited for these games (I might play Mafia II eventually myself), but…the showcase title this week is a remaster of a 13-year-old game, accompanied by two decidedly middling selections (69 and 53 metacritic scores).

I am deeply unhappy with the scope of the price increase but have ultimately been leaning toward keeping my subscription because having so many indie titles at my disposal in the catalog has drastically changed what I choose to play for the better; I’ve spent so much time this year playing smaller games I wouldn’t have ever paid attention to on my own. But Sony is really invested in pushing me in the other direction.

Not seeing good reasoning here. “Adjusting to market conditions” means they went as high as they believed they could bear, and the claim that they haven’t raised prices in “many years” doesn’t justify raising prices by $40 in one jump.

Lots of “consumers” this and that, as if we’re all on board with the hikes because we just recognize so much value in the service.

I had thought for years that ACA had eliminated these kinds of plans. I’m guessing I heard about that being included in one of those infamous earlier drafts before the free-market neo-liberals ripped it apart.

I’m one of the weird ones who kinda liked the batmobile. Game just felt really good to play although no argument that it was off balance, especially in the narrative department.

I feel like that list wouldn’t actually be that diverse.

Arkham City
Spider-Man 2018
Arkham Asylum
Spider-Man 2
Arkham Knight?

I’d check the video to see if he lists them out, but I must have some kind of analogy dyslexia, because as much as I respect ACG, his reviews start to sound like gibberish after about the 3rd consecutive analogy.

It’s official, folks. Unfetter your hype and submit those pre-orders if you’re inclined.

I have to say, I’m surprised they brought back the MJ missions. I’m trying to remember how much I enjoyed them on my first playthrough, but I can say in subequent ones I was desperate to move past them. Maybe they’ll let you skip them in new game plus like they did for the science “puzzles” in the first game.

Edit: obligatory bring-back-original-peterface. I feel a twinge of bitterness every time I see peterface 2.0.

Google may be evil, but you can’t deny they still attract top talent.
