[lcap]

yay! Can't wait. Watching Karak's (ACG) review now.

 

[WillySJ3]

Great reviews so far, just as I expected. Housemarque always deliver. A few more hours and I start playing this.

[Alexious]

Edit: nevermind, bad PR info

 

[benzopil]

I don't even know if I'm allowed to say anything since they told me about different embargo time lol.

 

[Azuardo]

Umm, yeah, what, embargo lifts 1700 BST.

 

[alr1ght]

I hope this is great

 

[danowat]

Housemarque = quality.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

Umm, yeah, what, embargo lifts 1700 BST.

There seems to be some kind of confusion going around, but reviews are up, so is the review thread.

I guess people are unsure if 9am EST or PST.

 

[OléGunner]

Housemarque = quality.

Yup pretty much, that name is a seal of quality.
I wish them good luck with this game, I'll be skipping it but showing up for Matterfall instead!

 

[epmode]

Already purchased. The beta was pretty great so I'm very much looking forward to this!

In related news, Robotron 2084 is the best arcade game ever made.

 

[killatopak]

good reviews so far.

I just talked with PR (EU) and they said it was 9AM EST or 5PM BST...

I told'em....You know, 9AM EST is 3PM CET actually...

 

[Neuromancer]

Dual shockers link doesn't work- there's an extra comma at the end.

 

[JaffeLion]

will get it on PC 🙂

 

[Karak]

Game is fantastic gents. Insane.
I am also blown away at the performance. 4k 60+fps is always a plus

Fixed, thanks.

 

[antitrop]

Housemarque delivers again

I emailed our contact too, but no reply just yet. But yeah, that's 2pm BST, so... just waiting for definite before I post mine.

 

[mullet2000]

Uhhh this is out tomorrow? I had no idea.

 

[Cert.in.Death]

I've already bought both the PS4 and PC versions, what more do you want from me?!?!

 

[dugdug]

Jeez louise. Add another to the list.

 

[Indelible]

Already bought it on Steam, these reviews are getting me hyped.

 

[AbandonedTrolley]

Already had PS4 pre-ordered and then got in to the BETA which pretty much justified my decision. Game is magic

 

[danowat]

That's PS Pro I imagine?, what is it on PS Norm?

edit : or is that the PC version.........

 

[B.O.O.M]

Watched the ACG review and the game looks amazing 0_0 ugh I suck at this genre but might have to consider buying this

 

[Camwi]

I did not know this game existed, but I will gladly buy anything Housemarque makes.

 

[InsaneTiger]

The Sony pre show was pretty good. Will buy asap.

 

[MrS]

Glad it's reviewing well but sad to see that the bosses haven't been balanced based on Beta feedback.

 

[Karak]

Watched the ACG review and the game looks amazing 0_0 ugh I suck at this genre but might have to consider buying this

When you have the difficulty like this I can't imagine most folks NOT being able to do very well on the low difficulty and those who are amazing at games like this really enjoying the higher up difficulties. Its playable like a son o bitch

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

Oh shit completely forgot this was coming out. Definite buy from me.

It releases tomorrow in case anyone was wondering. Wish it were today since I'm off work.

Edit: And it's $15.99 instead of $19.99 if you buy it now before release. So....bought.

 

[Ready2Rokk]

I had no doubt that would be great. Even when Housemarque misses (Dead Nation, Alienation), they are still top notch games. When they hit, they are brilliant. My preload is waiting!

 

[Zanosuke]

Read review, instabought game on Steam. Looks like another winner for the studio. Congratz!

 

[ThatStupidLion]

wow - jsut watched trailer looks awesome. ton of bullet hell it seems. HM is a primo studio

 

[D1renegade]

2017 is killing my wallet. I didn't realize this was out so soon.

 

[WillySJ3]

That's PS Pro I imagine?, what is it on PS Norm?

edit : or is that the PC version.........

60fps magic everywhere!!! Any version will play great.

 

[Finaika]

GTX 980 Ti or PS4 Pro?

 

[Primethius]

A Housemarque title is a guaranteed buy from me.

 

[Gunship]

Pre-ordered on the strength of the ACG review with 20% PS Plus discount.

 

[B.O.O.M]

The bolded: A gamebox quote if I ever saw one haha. And great to hear about difficulty scaling. Makes it an easier buy. Great job on the review btw

 

[Jonboy]

Totally forgot this comes tomorrow! Have had it preordered for months. Love Housemarque.

Hopefully this is a return to form for them after the disappointing (at least for me) Alienation. Early reviews seem promising!

 

[george_us]

Forgot this was coming out. Pre-orderd for that sweet discount.

 

[MrS]

9 and a half hours til this unlocks!!! Argh I can't wait

 

[Frostman]

GTX 980 Ti or PS4 Pro?

Personal preference. It's going to play fantastic on both systems.

 

[Eggiem]

GTX 980 Ti or PS4 Pro?

When in doubt: PC.

 

[Servbot24]

Awesome, can't wait for this.

 

[Magic Mushroom]

2017 further establishing itself as the GOAT gaming year. And Matterfall in a two months time as well. Bliss.

 

[dead monkey uk]

The Sony pre show was pretty good. Will buy asap.

Would have loved to have seen Nex Machina and Matterfall shown at the main Sony conference.

Housemarque are up there with my favourite developers, everything they release is day 1 for me.

 

[valentine71]

I have been playing my review code on PS4 for the last few days and it is absolutely fantastic. Performance is so good (on a normal PS4) and the soundtrack is amazing.
