    An incredible game, Sucker Punch always make the most fun games to play.
    The graphics are a true sight to behold, amazing views and settings.
    Combat is fluid and satisfying, great story.
    There are some bugs that will probably get fixed, but nothing serious that deters from the general amazing experience.

    Alright, first of all, let me start off by saying that the game is a Playstation exclusive so it automatically removes the option to give the game a score under 9 since that would make you either a hater or an Xbox fanboy. Now since we got that outta the way let's start the review.

Now since we got that outta the way let's start the review.
    You play as this guy named Jin, you can see that the game is awesome when your character is named Jin. Your main weapon is a sword and you can ride horses, I mean which game ever did that huh? For the first few hours of the game, it really feels like that game was made by the creators of "Bubsy 3D" but as you progress through the story you can clearly see that the game holds a spot right next to games like "Knack" and "Super Mario Bros 2". The AI System is God tier in this game, with this new technology the enemies can even smell you. So if you're a weeb and you haven't take a shower in 3 weeks the game punishes you by saying " No, the Japanese can smell too you dumba**". So anyway, Behnam told me to give the game a 10/10 and that's what I'm gonna do. Masterpiece.    … Expand

    - Interesting Characters.
    - Side missions are good and dont feel like filler.
    - Graphics and Art Work/Degisn is GOD TIER. seriously this is even a small level above RED DEAD 2.
    - the Leveling System is fairly deep and does its job nicely.

    - Technically (ps4 slim) its a hit and miss. but mostly hit, PS4Pro is flawless from what i read.

    closing thoughts

    these "professional" reviewers once again prove how irrelevant they are. games losing points for not reinventing the wheel, while others dont. this is one of the best games of the Generation but you wouldnt know that by looking at the "professional" scores ( which are solid but are doing a great disservice to the game ), now i thought Second Son was mediocre to pretty good at best but Sucker Punch really stepped up BIG TIME, they are on the level of Santa Monica to me now. looking forward to your next game, ill be there day 1.    … Expand

    As a lover of Japanese culture/history and open world games, this game blows my mind. As in most open action/rpg games you need to invest some time for the story to develop together with the skills tree, but once you do you are awarded with one of the finest gaming experiences I have ever encountered in my 26 years of gaming. Easily 10/10 for me and game of the year.

    This game is absolutely incredible! From the story and the gameplay.
    The art style is phenomenal. Another thing that makes it amazing is the added Legends mode.
    I was immersed with the world and I look forward for the sequel.

It is a very rare event in the life cycle of a console that a game as special as this comes along that impresses and moves the industry benchmarks forward. Generally open world games are rather fatiguing and dull but I cannot really find anything to **** about with this title except for some minor graphical nit picks about the camera and some animation issues etc. These little things do not detract from the overall experience in the least.

    I am a huge fan of Japanese art, culture and cinema and this wonderful game is a love letter to those things. You can just see that Sucker Punch have done these things justice and love these as well. I am a massive Kurosawa fan and playing this in the black and white Kurosawa mode is just like playing a movie and is a fun little distraction.

    Well done Sucker Punch I am so addicted to this gem of a game and have not been this impressed since God of War but in my opinion GOT is better and more enjoyable than that title and yes even Red Dead 2 as well.

My biggest overall flaw with the game would have to be some of the stealth missions, they became annoying at times and took away from the otherwise great pace of the game. I'm not allowed to talk spoilers however I'm still blown away by those final fights, the game does something that isn't utilized in many other games for a final fight and although it's an emotionally tough fight, it's worth it. If the last of us 2 was like Thanos, an amazing game making you feel evil, this is like Thor, an amazing game making you feel like a hero. GOT is a better game than the entire Assassins Creed series and Assassins Creed fans should feel right at home giving it a playthrough. Overall, Sucker punch did a wonderful job and Sony got a great final exclusive for one of the best consoles ever. I'd give it a 91/100 and I sure hope the ps5 gets a 60fps version and a sequel one day.… Expand

Part of me was expecting this to not live up to my expectations, but damn it's so good! The island of Tsushima looks incredible and is such an amazing place just to wander around. I get a similar feeling playing this as i did with the equally amazing Horizon Zero Dawn. And i have the same problem with it too..i find it very difficult to stop playing and put the controller down! the story, the characters (for the most part) the music, the animals and the overall atmosphere of this game just draws you in. I kept finding myself saying "just a quick look around this area then i'll return to the temple" Combat wise i was very pleasantly surprised. The sword play is by no means easy and takes good timing particularly with stand offs and spear wielding enemies, and dodging . It feels quite similar to Jedi Fallen Order (at least to me, I'm not the best at combat) the main difference is that in Ghost of Tsushima you respawn where you die (reload on this is very quick too!) rather than ending up miles away at a save point. This means way less frustration for the not so good at combat gamer, as such i didn't mind dying and trying again to perfect an encounter. Also enemy A.I is really good and quite unforgiving, multiple enemies will rush you at once which means you really do need to be tactical.

    Full disclosure, I'm less than halfway through at this point and maybe i'll edit this review later (though i doubt it) All i can say is i haven't had this much fun in a game since Horizon a game i've now played through numerous times, and i can see myself spending a lot of time in Tsushima too.

    I also think it's no accident that this game came out after TLOU part 2. Sony knew some time ago that , that game would be problematic and incredibly divisive, and to be honest it's simply not a good game. So why would you want that to be your last PS4 exclusive. Ghost Of Tsushima is the send off the PS4 deserves, and what an incredible way to enter the next generation of Sony exclusives. Hats off to everyone involved.    … Expand

    Ghost of Tsushima is a flawed, but fun, game. While the gameplay itself was solid, and the story was decent, I definitely expected a lot more from Sony’s final PlayStation 4 exclusive. It had enough to keep me hooked, but lacked the polish we’ve all grown to love from a Sony first party game.

    Ultimately, it feels like the game could have benefited from a smaller scope or a more linear structure. Focus on the duels could have created a more engrossing product, especially if it honed in on the narrative for a more concise and cinematic experience. But as it stands, Ghost of Tsushima is another AAA open world title and doesn’t seek to define itself as anything other than that.
