 The Tuesday letters page is excited at the prospect of F-Zero returning, as one reader prefers Armored Core 6 to Starfield. To join in with the discussions yourself email gamecentral@metro.co.uk Impossible standards Although I accept there'll never be any agreement on the quality of Starfield I do think there's one thing that most people can agree on and that is that it has not lived up to the hype. Even if you enjoy the game, it's not what most people expected when it was first revealed, and it does have some pretty obvious problems. Despite what the Reader's Feature said at the weekend I don't think it's the fact that the game is mediocre which is causing the arguments but that it was clearly overhyped. It was basically advertised as one of the best games ever and I don't think anyone is claiming it's that or anything close to it. As many readers have already pointed out, even those reviews that give it high marks end up saying most of the same things as GC and others. It can be a good game and still a disappointment and I think that's at the heart of what's causing so much argument. Teflon Still waiting Just wanted to write a quick note on how disappointed I am with Naughty Dog and the lack of multiplayer for The Last Of Us Part 2. The game was released in 2020 on the PlayStation 4, for goodness sake, and there's still no sign of it. I did read some rumours about it not being very good but don't know if those are true. As a fan of the original multiplayer, which I still play, I would have been happy with the same game simply with new maps. Surely not too much to ask, is it? I guess I'm just frustrated as even the original PlayStation 3 release of the first game had the multiplayer. Do you know what Naughty Dog are even up to these days? Steve GC: They've just started a new game, which probably isn't The Last Of Us Part 3, and there's rumoured to be a The Last Of Us Part 2 PS5 edi){kind=link}
