Metacritic down to 76 due to Polygons review.



The scoring of the Vita FPS games on Polygon is actually pretty funny.

It's clear there is an anti handheld bias going on with the reviewing systems these days. I just don't understand why a handheld game is being held up against the lofty expectations of the best FPS games with the biggest development budgets in the industry on home consoles.

It's nice to be able to play an uncompromised FPS on the move full stop. Factor in one that actually has a decent campaign and one of the first online multiplayer modes I've enjoyed in a long time and 6/10 is actually laughable.



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

These stupid reviewers can't help but compare handhelds fps to console fps can they?!



Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

'When the people are being beaten with a stick, they are not much happier if it is called the people's stick'- Mikhail Bakunin

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

Current meta 78 so not bad, it went up, just Riderz is banned :D



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

I compared it to its console counterparts...and actually said it was BETTER than Killzone 3...becuase the narrative made it better suited to the story and the reduced cost was awesome. 



My Console Library:

PS5, Switch, XSX

PS4, PS3, PS2, PS1, WiiU, Wii, GCN, N64 SNES, XBO, 360

3DS, DS, GBA, Vita, PSP, Android

I'm interested to play this, once I catch up on the Killzone series, I still have 2 and 3 to play.



 Been away for a bit, but sneaking back in.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

Lol I won't even bother clicking on a site which gives The Last of Us a 7.5. They clearly have weird expectations of games in general, compared to mine at least.



Game of the year 2017 so far:

5. Resident Evil VII
4. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
3. Uncharted: The Lost Legacy
2. Horizon Zero Dawn
1. Super Mario Odyssey
