I believe the sources, but plans can actually change too. Maybe they want to see how well Horizon does before deciding when to release Bloodborne.
well the port is basically done at this point (has to be) ... so it's only a matter of "when" now ... not "if"













... and in other news:


thanks Ge0force :blobhug:

Oh for sure, but I never really cared about the "when". It will eventually come, I'm good with that, lol.

Good point, the motherfucker is visibly suffering from the heat too, but would he drink some water ? Nooooo.
...
I may have an alcoholic cat.
Poor Mittens Kao. Bc his bud brought him up on the suds, getting him to drink water was a dud. :(

Also, Gamepass PC stays winning AF. Yes I'm destroying the industry. Clustertruck is cool btw. When Flight Simulator comes out, I might hook up my Logitech Joystick for the first time in YEARS.

I took the plunge on renting Control for a week and purchasing the Season Pass. I'm an hour into 'The Foundation' expansion, its gooooooddd.

I wonder when they are gonna update the store page with cheevos and cloud saves tag.
Probably not until the very last moment.

So the Bloodborne rumour has turned out to be a bust? I wonder if Sony just decided to announce it later, making it more into a stealth drop (seems unlikely with such a big title) or perhaps they delayed their plans for the port?
Just seems weird after so many different people kept hinting at it.
All companies have internal plannings, doesn't make sense to overlap your first biggest release on the platform with another contender, keep in mind that we are still in July, this year time feels weird, please, patience. :cat-heart-blob:

Not going to lie, the only reason why I don't get Gamepass is because I don't play that much, otherwise I would have probably get it already, it's a really valuable service. :cat-heart-blob:

I originally got it bc of the crossplay between xbox one and PC on select games. Staying for actually being able to afford staying current with gaming trends.

Gamepass is nice and all ... its just the way i play and enjoy games ... tis just not worth it even for 5$ a month
Especially with XboxApp/WinStore being the mess they are.

Ultimately I just dont see a point in paying for just another "endless backlog library" on messy service , when i already have one "backlog library" big enough to last me till pension

The only issue I've had so far with the app (which is different than the Xbox App) is the plugin that works with GOG Galaxy 2.0 crashes once a day.

Yes I can't delete game files. No modding... etc etc.

I love the ability to try things I'd NEVER consider before. I tried Bloodstained Ritual of the Night. It was a bad joke of a game but hey, I tried it. Blair Witch turned out to be pretty damn good to my surprise. Had no idea what Clustertruck was and now I play it a couple of times a week for 15 minutes as a plate cleanser. I thought Sea of Thieves was a stupid baby game by rare but, I was extremely wrong.

The games I don't want to play get ignored.

I think I barely noticed because I was never much interested in purchasing their stuff day one until now, and for koei I only use 3rd party stores

Hopefully those FlightSims regional prices are an error otherwise wtf.
Only way those are an "error" is if they believe the bad regional pricing is going to hurt them and they change it after going "teehee we made a mistake and it's fixed now!"

welp ... looks like MS are done with regional pricing:
Yup. It was good while it lasted. RIP.

That's one way to drive gamers to gamepass. I myself will do as I do for all other publishers thinking $80 CAD is acceptable for games - wait for a massive sale price drop
Isn't it supposed to be the other way around?

They earn more revenue from direct game sales, much more than Gamepass.

pretty much this, yes

How do you know?
because there are 3 packages for that game ... all with shit pricing ... so they'd have to make this error 3 times in a row :p

it's not an error

Yup. It was good while it lasted. RIP.
yup

Hm, Final Fantasy 12 might become my new favorite final fantasy game if it keeps it up. (From what I've googled I'm around the halfway point in the story, just got the Sword of Kings).
It's just a very good all around package. Great characters and story so far, with lots of optional exploration and side content as well, and in typical Square Enix fashion lots over-animated super-moves, summons and CG cutscenes (I love it). There are probably individual parts that I like more in other FF games (I really like the combat in Lightning returns and the monster-collecting in 13-2), but I heavily dislike some parts of those as well.
10 was my previous favorite, but I think 12 will likely supercede it.

I would say you're under halfway, depending on wether or not you wanna explore and do optional content.
Honestly, you can't believe how blessed you are playing the version with fast forward function, because back on the PS2, exploring the yensa sandsea literally took 5+ Hours, but tbh, it was kinda cool because the desert actually felt like a desert thart way and you were glad when you found the tombs.

But anyways, welcome to the club, FFXII was hugely underrated back then and was Always my favorite with IX and Tactics

I liked it right up until it started with annoying things such as jumping onto moving platforms in a mostly dark room. If you fall, you get to do it all over again and I am clumsy.
some of the mini-dungeons are a bit frustrating but it's pretty fun so far, really glad it's on PC and on Game Pass at launch no less

on another note, is Jedi Fallen Order ever coming to Origin Access Basic? games don't usually take over eight months to come to the service, usually it's 6-7

No way I'm paying for a game subscription, I like to own my games. I'll have to wait for a big discount too. I hate how almost nobody does regional pricing anymore.

Oh I can believe. I dabbled a bit in the PS2 version with an emulator way back but never really got far.
That x4 turbo mode is indeed a blessing.

I just played it for the first time last month on the Steam version, and yes I also think it has shot up my list and become my favorite FF game. Such a great production all around.
