Gaming Ghost of Tsushima (PS4)

Really hate that I've to wait an extra week just to play this game. I buy from Amazon. We are right across the bloody ocean. Why such a long wait.

The combat looked very Assassin's Creed-y, that's too say fairly shit, in the showcase last month.

I thought the same but after watching some more it appears the combat is far more in depth than AC. The leaks seem to back that up.

Really looking forward to this.
The customization element has my strongest interest,alongside the beautiful vistas ,but the combat does look all too familiar.
 
I thought it was 2pm but never mind.
 
So based on scores, it turned out like everyone predicted from watching gameplay videos, nothing mindblowing or bad, the game is just...ok/good.

AC Japan indeed.
 
Skillup: Sucker Punch have made a phenomenal game.

I’ll be playing.
 
85 is good for me.

Horizon and Spiderman were both high 80's too and they're two of my favourite games over the last few years.
 
Seems to be getting decent reviews. Should be fun but probably not going to be a 'classic' by the sounds of things. Looking forward to making my own mind up from Friday onwards.
 
I’m sure it’ll be a solid game to keep me entertained for a while.
 
ACG and SkillUp love this and it’s good enough for me. Can’t wait for this.

Yep just posted the same thing. Don’t really pay much attention to what others have to say. They never go in depth and just don’t get what gamers want from a game most of the time.
 
Considering how inflated review scores are these days 83 is a bit dissapointing, but I thought Nioh 2 was awesome which has a average score of 85, so I its not a big difference.

Agree. I don't trust critics anyway. I only watch YouTube reviewers these days.

Think I'll end up buying it today or tomorrow so that I can play it first day.

With those two their views almost always align to mine so I look of for them more than most. I can’t remember last time I disagreed with them strongly. Happy days.

Link is down, so can’t verify.

Eurogamer said it’s ok, but haven’t recommended it.

Eurogamer are often all over the place with their AAA game reviews. They've somehow managed to recommend AC: Syndicate, AC: Origins and AC: Odyssey but failed to do the same with Horizon and now this game for being too generic. It's clear that this game and Horizon before it are built around a similar structure as AC games but they manage to add their own, unique flavouring on top of it. So why EG seem to judge these game more harshly than the ultra generic AC titles is a mystery to me. I like the site for the most part but with these large, open-world titles you can pretty much predict they won't recommend them unless it says Assassin's Creed in the title, for whatever reason.
