    Despite significant technical and in-play improvements for this PS5 version, much of the game’s core remains unchanged. Quest design and storytelling, though not without their moments on the critical path, too often feel rife with unrealised potential. Cyberpunk 2077’s abrasive personality is still clear as day too, inescapable in its script and blaring out from Night City’s many questionable billboards. If you choose to venture into Night City, we hope you find what you’re looking for. [Issue#12, p.72]

    Cyberpunk 2077's native current-gen version is a slightly more polished version of a game that's still bogged down by significant issues.

While the game does have improvements over the PS4 version as expected, it still isn't the AAA next-gen experience that the greedy developers promised. There is no improvement to the physics whatsoever. It still has some of the worst physics I have ever seen in a video game. When I crashed into a car with my motorbike, my character went flying like a football. That is very PS2-like. The developers are too cheap and lazy to give us at least half-decent physics. The lighting effects are terrible. This game looks like something that the Farming Simulator developers would make if they were given a AAA budget. This game proves that CDPR are nothing more than an off-brand Ubisoft.

    There is nothing to do in the open world. It is still boring and empty. You still can't customize any cars. There is no aircraft or boats that you can use. It's funny how a 2002 PS2 game that takes place in the 80s known as GTA Vice City has more vehicle variety than a 2022 PS5 upgrade of a 2020 game that takes place in the future. That is embarrassing. The AI is incredibly stupid. The NPCs keep bumping into each other. While the game isn't as broken as it was before, it still has bugs and glitches. I've seen NPCs sitting down on invisible chairs multiple times. I had an enemy in a sleeper hold and the NPCs were still talking to each other like it never happened. When I bail out of the car, the protagonist doesn't flip around like it would in GTA V PS4 first person mode. And this is supposed to be next-gen. Speaking of next-gen, the city roads are too skinny, there isn't enough space to park my car on the side of the road. That is extremely outdated, considering that most developers stopped using the lame PS2 narrow road design when the PS3 and 360 came out. The missions are boring and repetitive. The story is trash.

    For goodness sake, when is the multiplayer going to be available? It's been over a year already. If it took over a year to make this piece of garbage actually playable, then I can't imagine how long it will take them to finish developing the multiplayer. As I said earlier, CDPR is an off-brand Ubisoft. At least it doesn't take Ubisoft a million years to fix 1 game and add multiplayer. Sure the upgrade is free, but what good is any of that when I still paid $60 for this poor excuse of a game? I don't recommend this game at all.    … Full Review »

This is dating simulator for people who have never spoken with women before. Lifeless city, boring story and soulless characters. Not recommending this game to anyone.… Full Review »

    One of the worst AAA games of all time. Boring, buggy, amateurish and takes way too long to be patched.
