I also. I sucked so bad though for almost a year I couldn't get past level to finish. Someone got me the patch to make me live again and again and never die. So finally finished it! lol
Got a tip for us?

My statement holds true...I played the PS4 version, never played the PS5 upgrade, although I did buy it if I recall correctly.

I already played this game at the moment, and at this moment I’m expecting the sequel.
But now, this is a game that I would love to experience in immersive 3D. If it was technically possible, I think I’d die from Stendhal.
Well the Vision Pro plays iPhone and iPad games so it should work. The PS5 controller is compatible with Vision Pro. I’m going to preorder it and try when I get my Vision Pro on the 6th.

It’s in the store for me
iPad Pro (12.9-inch) (5th generation)
and listed as works on this!
id not realised that it was any M chip iPad Pro from the article so this is quite cool. I’ve not played the updated version but did love the original. Shame I can’t port all my roads.
(and yeah - big fan of Pathways ITD and the Marathon series)

If walking across a post-apocalyptic USA delivering packages while encountering rain that rapidly ages your skin or ghosts made of oil and hovering from the air by an umbilical cord is something that catches your interest, then yes. A highly detailed game with a pretty wild story. If reviews of the iPad version is good then I'll likely get it.
Sounds like a day in the life of a UPS delivery driver 😁
replaying this game for a third time on PC atm, wouldnt mind being able to pickup progress occasionally from m1 mbp if they bring the compatibility to the steam listing

Warning: game is very dark in terms of themes including suicide.
I was looking forward to this one, but the app store won't let me purchase it. Says it can't complete the purchase due to lack of free disk space, even with 140gb free. Really dumb.
Absolutely loved this game, dumped almost 100 hours into it between the original release and the directors cut.
I know you plan on waiting but keep in mind the price probably won’t stay the same since this is preorder pricing.
This is what I was afraid of. Why are so many games so dark these days?
Ok so my iPhone 14 Pro and iPad Air 4th gen isn’t compatible. So I’ll have to wait till I get my Vision Pro to try and purchase and download it

Marathon made me upgrade from a pizza-box to a Quadra 630. Used to bring that and its 15" CRT monitor to friends' houses so we could have LAN parties. So much fun, and a moody, scary game to play in the house with all of the lights turned off.

Cuz that's what people feel these days, so they relate more with those games.
That's my conclusion, anyway.
Death Stranding is actually extremely anti-cynicism, to an extent that is almost comic (but never insincere). Playing it was one of the most uplifting media experiences I've had in a long time.
Death Stranding had some great graphics and interesting story points, but I found it, overall, to get stale fast. Just a constant errand boy going here and going there while Die-Hardman just rides you constantly about how you HAVE to do this because the country MUST be rebuilt, etc. All the while he talks to you in a condescending and manipulative manner and tone. Again, cool graphics and unique points like timefall, but gameplay itself was a snooze fest for me.

Racing games are not a super popular genre, one of the original criticisms of death stranding was that it’s “to mundane” (you literally climb through a mountain wasteland delivering packages from a to b) so if you can endure racing games the core gameplay loop of this game won’t kill you either.
I found the game quiet hilarious at points, it also has a deeper feeling of connection and support that has been woven in quiet masterfully. The story is kojoma wiredness, don’t expect something as straight forward as the last of us for example.
