RussTCB Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 How do we not have a thread on this? Did I miss it? Either way, I finally broke down and pre-ordered it for Xbox One X tonight. 1 Quote
ZoSoRose Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 I'm pretty excited. I'll get the xbone version Quote
jamillos Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 I have no doubts this mother will be truly… breathtaking. Alas, I highly doubt I’ll be able to play it on my 3.5-year old laptop, so I’ll probably have to wait a bit, as usual. While seeing images and videos from the game everywhere around me... Quote
Dazey Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) Found a Steam code for £38 which is just about all the excuse I need to pick it up. Pre-load starts on Monday for PC so I've have it ready to play on day one. XBoxers can download it from today. Edited December 4, 2020 by Dazey Quote
James Bond Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 I just purchased a Series S to replace my old Xbone so I was thinking Cyberpunk might be a lovely introduction to my next gen library. Quote
Hollywood Gunner Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 not really into rpgs but my buddy is getting it and we gameshare so... ill probably give it a try but im waiting for the ps5 version as it only releases for next gen in a few months i beleive... dont wanna ruin the experience by playing the ps4 version first lol Quote

How is it? Have you seen the developer mode on it where you can play PS2 and GameCube games? Quote

I haven't received it yet (just ordered it last night after debating on it for a few days), but I am definitely going to give developer mode a go! It looks like the PS2 emulation is already very playable, and the Gamecube looked impressive as well. N64 is apparently extremely smooth except for GoldenEye. Figures. Quote

I pre ordered digitally, so I assume it would show up somewhere if it's available, right? Quote

Ordered my PC copy this morning. Excited! Edited December 5, 2020 by Dazey Quote
downzy Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 I promised myself I wouldn’t buy and play this game until I’ve cleared a few previously purchased games I haven’t played yet. Particularly Witcher 3. So I’m hopeful it lives up to the hype and by spring I can pick this up on a deal. Quote
Axls_Moustache_Rules Posted December 5, 2020 Posted December 5, 2020 My ps5 will be waiting for this.. maybe the next gen version. Moneys tight right now Quote

Dazey Posted December 7, 2020 Posted December 7, 2020 Early reviews say it's an amazing game but an absolute mess technically. Absolutely full of bugs apparently but there's supposedly a 40 plus gig patch coming on day one so hopefully they can fix much of what's wrong with it before anybody notices. Quote

I saw a lot of that info today. I'm really hoping that Day 1 patch fixes the bugs the reviewers dealt with. Quote
ZoSoRose Posted December 8, 2020 Posted December 8, 2020 I got a new 55 inch 4k TV (my previous TV was 10 years old) and have it preloaded on my Xbone I am excited 2 Quote

I went from zero interest in this two weeks ago to being fully invested lol. I have a lot of house work / promotional work to do today and I'm loading up stuff for tomorrow and the next day too so I can sit and play the living shit out of this without interruption once it's live. 1 Quote
Axls_Moustache_Rules Posted December 8, 2020 Posted December 8, 2020 Hate to rain on everyone's parade but Polygon and Kotaku say its not very inclusive and offensive. 2 Quote

To be honest that doesn't really bother me all that much, I just find it unnecessary. I read the first few paragraphs of the Polygon review and gave up. I do wish that people would just review a game once in a while without getting all political. I was listening to a retro gaming podcast recently and they spent first fifteen minutes going on about trans representation in The Crying Game. Edited December 8, 2020 by Dazey Quote

My favorite review so far has been Gamespot where the woman gave it 7 / 10, then did another video basically saying she didn't even play the game all that much. Quote

How long until you can play Russ? It doesn't unlock until midnight tonight for me so I'll not get to play until tomorrow after work for any length of time. Quote

ZoSoRose Posted December 10, 2020 Posted December 10, 2020 Played about 3 hours today on an OG Xbone. Idk why people are trashing the visuals, they look incredible still. I can tell it was designed for better hardware, but so far it's getting the job done. It's very cinematic Quote

It's very cinematic It does look really great. I’m getting about 40-50 FPS with all ray tracing effects turned on and they look incredible. Might be time for a graphics card upgrade. I only played about half an hour though. Stupid UK time zone. Edited December 10, 2020 by Dazey Quote
