Since we finally got back from our vacation yesterday, we haven't had much time to discover Agents of Mayhem to tell you about it. Still, we managed to record the beginning of this crazy adventure on PC (PS4 footage should be up later today), so you can see if there is anything you like in it. We have quite a few games to show you today, with more to come later this week, so this second part of August is looking quite busy already. To think Gamescom is also around the corner...
Update 2: 4 PS4 Pro videos added, one of them analysing the framerate. Sadly, it's unlocked with no way to lock it at 30 while the game can never really reach 60. Why?

they should have stuck to saints row. it wasn't exactly what i'd consider a good game either, but it at least had an audience and some cool customization features...oh, and co-op.
Agents of Mayhem on the other hand, looks dull for some reason. Both gameplay and artsyle. Feels like a game that didn't evolve with the times. Yesterday, I was looking at it on Steam and really wanted to pre-order it for the 9 skins - which actually look cool for once and the Gat exclusive character, missions and weapons, but something stopped me, telling me to wait for reviews.
Driftwood, have you managed to figure out why even at 1080p, a GTX 1080 can't maintain rock-solid 60fps on a title that doesn't look technically demanding? Maybe the developers botched one or two of the graphics settings - happens quite often.
Any chance you guys can livestream Agents of Mayhem and/or Sonic Mania today?
But the true problem seems to be - I haven't played, so can only go by reviews - the game's quality. It seems to be a very polarizing game.
It has a MetaCritic score of 68, based on 29 critics. And a User Score of 5.9, by 19 users. Additionally, IGN gave it a score of 7.1, out of 10. Polygon gave it a score of 5.5, out of 10. GameSpot gave a score of 4, ouf of 10. Though there are some reviews above 80 from lesser known sites.
Guess I was right in waiting for reviews, still hoping that the game is fun, contrary to some reviews. But like they say, the best judge is yourself. Though I will wait a while for a discounted price.
:/
game doesn't even have that much better graphics than Saints 4...
