Cameos in film are not uncommon. Alfred Hitchcock had a reputation for putting himself in the background of most of his movies, and Kojima himself has a cameo in Too Old To Die Young , a series directed by friend and colleague Nicholas Winding Refn, who in turn modeled for the role of Heartman in Death Stranding . Kojima's appearances in his own video games, however, tend to be less sub
One look at Cyberpunk 2077 on PS4 and you can see why. It’s locked at 30fps, but the world is also completely empty. The NPCs and cars in the game at launch were fairly dull and predictable, disappearing or resetting as soon as you turned away and looked back, but the PS4 version seems to have removed all but the most essential ones entirely. It’s a ghost town, and regardless of my own thoughts on Cyberpunk 2077’s quality or themes, it’s clear that this is a shadow of the game it once was. Not even a shadow of its looming potential - the game seems to work on a basic ‘does not crash’ level, but aside from that it’s demonstrably worse than it was at launch. I’d love to hear an explanation for why it was finally deemed okay to sell now, when the game is so obviously not ready that it’s being sold with a warning that it’s not actually going to work on the console it is currently being sold for. The conspiracy theory that Sony is pissed CDPR left it carrying the can for refunds doesn’t ring true for me - if that was the case, I doubt it would be back on the store
The remake of the first MGS for the GameCube, Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes , has an additional Kojima cameo during the Psycho Mantis fight. A portrait of Kojima is hanging on a wall in the room where the boss fight occurs, along with two other portraits of developers who worked on the game - Ryuhei Kitamura and Denis Dyack, according to VGFac
These games are incredibly popular, and some have even gone on to be crowned some of the best games of all time. For gamers who like dark stories, western RPGs are teeming with themes that are perfect for gamers who are looking to get away from light-hearted storytelling.
While Cyberpunk 2077 is back on the PS Store, we’re being advised not to buy it on PS4. I don’t mean that someone has done a tech analysis and concluded that it runs a bit worse on PS4 than, say, Xbox - I mean we’re literally being told ‘don’t buy it on PS4,’ by both CD Projekt Red itself and PlayStation. Instead, both recommend using the juicier PS4 Pro, or just straight up using a PS5. It’s worth noting that the game is not out on PS5 - the PS4 version is compatible, but the PS5 version of the game, along with the Xbox Series X/S versions, is still in the works on top of the game’s still ongoing bug fixes and DLC. Thanks to the problems at launch, we still don’t know when any of this stuff is going to arr
There’s an option that allows players to choose the length of their character’s Johnson. Though it’s completely unnecessary, it’s impossible not to take a quick look, but the last thing gamers would want is their parents to walk in at that very mom
Fixers in Cyberpunk 2077 are meant to be the middlemen between a client and a merc, with their loyalty being only towards eddies. However, there are some plotholes in Cyberpunk 2077 that involve fixers associated with specific gangs. For some reason, some fixers sabotage their own gangs by hiring V to do something that hurts them. Wakako Okada, the fixer for Westbrook, is known for being a part of the Tyger Claws gang via her five dead husbands, who were all high-ranking members of the Tyger Claws. However, nearly every gig given to V by Wakako involves meddling in Tyger Claws affa
'Anti-consumer' is a phrase used a lot in gaming, and not always accurately. It's not anti-consumer that Nintendo doesn't support Smash Melee tournaments, for example, and while locking story content behind DLC is awfully money grubbing, I'm not sure it's technically 'anti-consumer'. Cyberpunk 2077 on PS4 undoubtedly is, however. It's a PS4 game being sold on PS4 while the PS4 makers tell you not to play it on the PS4. I know we're all bored of talking about Cyberpunk 2077 by now, but this seems to be sneaking under the radar. It's disgraceful that our industry allows it, and it's a worrying sign of the growing divide between the players and the suits out to make a quick b
Bioshock is a gaming classic due to its dark underwater setting. In the game, you dive into Rapture, a once-bustling metropolis that has now fallen apart. You play as Jack, a man who thinks read what he said is visiting Rapture for the first time, which is later revealed to be a false truth.
It’s the same with the Voodoo Boys in Pacifica. In " I Walk The Line ," players have the option to side with the NetWatch agent and or stick with the Voodoo Boys and their plan. If players choose to betray the Voodoo Boys, NetWatch will kill Brigitte and the other Voodoo Boys netrunners while V fights Placide. Despite the Voodoo Boys leaders being dead, there will still be gang members roaming the streets and guarding part of Pacifica. Should players enter a restricted area, the Voodoo Boys will immediately attack. The Animals, who are also in Pacifica, won’t attempt a hostile takeover of the district with the Voodoo Boys leaders d
