IGN - 7

Anyone else getting this? I've pre-ordered already.

Frustratingly they have said no new game plus, but it's coming as free DLC in the future. Rally wish games would release as complete packages.

It's reviewing very well; 82 on Metacritic after 99 reviews.

^ Digital Foundry appear to be very impressed, too.

"A highly polished, bug-free experience". It's great to read this as we see the increasingly common "work in progress" games that are released!

Surprisingly one of the lower scores. Sounds like a game I'll definitely pick up eventually.

Good news, Godzilla - new game plus will be ready to roll as part of a day one update. Source: Push Square

It'a very forgiving on normal difficulty. Lots of extra time and prompts too. The levels are a bit like The Surge 2 with back tracking used to unlock doors and make getting around easier. Combat flows well and enemies are varied monsters so far.

Story is a bit 90s and throwaway, but it runs very well. Has a lot of upgrades and moves and has a lot of hidden areas to explore and find more power ups.

No negatives so far.

There's uproar on twitter that the game is censored. Less butt. :lol:

Will be picking this up, was suppose to pre order but wanted to finish other games first. Watching my friend play and apart from the character which doesn't need to be discussed as much as it does, the games music, combat and world is something that I am looking forward too, reminds me of Nier Automata which I loved.

PLAY | Persona 3 Reloaded [3h]
WATCH | Ted Lasso S3, HiJack S1, Red Dwarf S4, Dexter S2
RACE | Chew Valley 10k (June), GNR (Sept), Cardiff Half (Oct)

Gave the demo of this a go last night and thought it was pretty great. I would have bit the bullet but I forgot how much of a ripoff Sony first party stuff is.

Made me realise I haven't picked up any Sony game since GoW Ragnarok. They really strawberry floated it this gen for me.
