Editor at Fextralife. I look for the substantial in gaming and I try to connect video games to the emotions and stories they elicit. I love all things culture and history and have an odd fondness for the planet Jupiter. I think my dogs are pretty awesome too.
Hey, Ziko, welcome to the PlayStation Nation. I thought you Europeans didn’t buy Xboxes? While almost all so-called triple A games are multi-plat, there are still many console exclusive games and for my tastes the huge range of JRPGs and Japanese-developed games are why I prefer PlayStation. And the frequent quirky, or unique niche games like Journey, a masterpiece.
The alpha for Nioh was great. Fun, interesting, difficult and I didn’t experience a single glitch. The beta should be fantastic. I will tear myself from No Man’s Sky for the time-limited Nioh beta.
I only just got my PS4 about two months ago after making the switch from X1 , so I just missed out on checking out the Beta. Heard some good things from a close friend so I´m glad there´s a new demo coming up.
I love the Defy Death tagline. It gives homage to the inspiration of the Souls series, but also defines itself as something completely different and fresh, which it is and is a cheeky little jab at the overdone prepare to die marketing.
“Defy Death”
