I'm always kind of confused as to how Playstation 4 has more new games week per week than PC, but then again there's a lot of remasters or multiplats being released

*Only anticipated PC releases are listed or if they also land on console. PC has way more games releasing than listed.

From the OP.

You know there will be a flash in the pan, then the OP's box will be ruined. "anticipated", I do wish i knew where that was coming from in terms of games releasing on Steam.

Is there a Steam survey of most anticipated games I'm not seeing or is it purely based on OP's speculation on what they think is going to be huge there?.



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"

Can anyone tell me if splatoon 2 is worth getting? And what exactly can I expect from it. I skipped the Wii u so didn't get to play the first one, but I did hear a lot of good things about it. I'm just on the fence about it because I'm not sure if it's another fps or something else.

Dude, you should have tried the free demo on Saturday.

As for the game, it's technically a third person shooter, but it doesn't play like any other game in the genre. Basically, it's a 4v4 where you shoot ink to cover the ground and walls, and you can turn into a squid to swim through your team's ink. If you're not moving, you're invisible while you're a squid, and swimming through the ink is much faster than walking. Since covering ground is so important, you can be helpful to your team even if you're not great at aiming. In fact, no mode specifically revolves around getting kills; the main mode is purely about covering more territory. Of course, kills are still important since it prevents your opponents from inking territory for a little while.

In short: It's a very refreshing shooter that has the traditional Nintendo quality of being easy to learn and hard to master. The original Splatoon was my favorite game on Wii U, so I'd recommend it.

Ugh, having a ridiculously hard time picking between Yonder, Zodiarcs, and Fallen Legion. All very different games, but each looks *really* good, and all at the top tier digital pricetag ($20).

Ended up getting Yonder & Zodiarcs. The Fallen Legion games look a bit rough.

Damn, didn't know there was a free demo. I'm leaning towards buying it. Sounds pretty good and different. I wonder if it'll be added to Redbox so I can try before I buy.

Anybody know if Splatoon 2 is getting a midnight release? I need it NAO!!!

Some Gamestops should be, call your local ones to make sure, or find a 24/7 Walmart.
