@FuriousMachine Yeah, aside from my still clinging onto the occasional physical copy, we’re of the same mindset I think.
And it looks like you do get a bonus mask and avatar set for the Yotei pre-order, in addition to being pre-loaded and ready to go day 1. Sounds like that’s not a huge factor for you but it’s a little something for your commitment. 😄

@Th3solution Yeah, some pre-order extras are always welcome, and I do like cool cosmetic items. I was an early adopter of the infamous horse armour, after all These days, though, not enough to shell out for a deluxe edition with nothing else. I'm not into digital soundtracks or digital artbooks either, as I prefer to have my music on vinyl and use Spotify for everything else. Artbooks could be cool, but only in physical form, for me.
That being said, I always add all versions to my wishlist, as I've noticed that a sale may knock down the price of a deluxe edition to below the price of the standard, so if I were ready to pull the trigger on that particular game at that particular time, I would consider that a slight "win".
Had my eye on Everspace 2 for a while, hoping that I may catch a deal. Didn’t end up getting it as cheap as I’d have liked… but just picked it up for £35.
Vampire the masquerade VR. Stealth game with a touch of dishonoured. Reviews were good originally but user reviews aren’t so much due to bugs etc.., hopefully they are few and far between for me.
Ghost signal VR, a rogue lite which is normally not my bag but we need as many space VR games as we can get, seriously where is Star Wars Squadrons for VR2.
@CaptD while VR has always been a bit of a hard sell for me, something akin to Dishonored in VR sounds like a perfect combination. I’ll be interested to hear how you get on with that.
Resident Evil 2 Remake, System Shock Remake & Romancing Saga 2: Revenge Of The Seven
Didn't realise Resident Evil 2 had got a physical release for PS5, thought it was a digital only upgrade so I snagged a copy. I didn't get a chance to finish it when I was playing it via PS Plus last year so... So I'll be able to finish it this time at my leisure!
Always wanted to play System Shock and heard good things about it. Remake seemed to have pretty good buzz about it too so... Looking forward to it.
I played the demo for Romancing Saga 2: Revenge Of the Seven recently and actually really enjoyed it. Seems like a fun classic JRPG with a new coat of paint.
Funny how they're all remakes now that I look at it...
Have had Resident Evil Village on my wishlist for a few years now, watching as it frequently goes on sale for $20, knowing I’m not going to have time to get to it for a while, so letting the sale goes by…
then it goes on sale now for $10, so I figured I wouldn’t pass that price up. I can’t imagine it will ever sell for less, as even physical used copies are $18.
Still need to play RE7 though. And RE5 & 6 for that matter. I’m leaning toward skipping straight to 7 though. Not sure. But my next horror game I was planning to play is Days Gone, Alan Wake, or Dead Space.

@Th3solution
Just to be awkward I say Days Gone but Dead Space is awesome as well, skip Alan Wake.
Don’t forget to buy RE4r gold edition when that is cheap.
@JohnnyShoulder Your vote has been recorded. 😄
And honestly I do need to get to Dead Space.
I also do remember that you were one who suggested that I can / should skip straight to the newer games in the RE series. I was always planning to do the whole mainline series in sequence, but I’m gradually getting accustomed to the idea of bypassing 5 and 6. Still considering 5, but now with rumors of a remake of it, maybe not.
But it will be a couple months before I get to my next horror game. Maybe in October… 🤔
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
@CaptD I loved RE4r when I played it earlier this year and in retrospect should have gone with the gold edition. Alas, I’m keeping my eyes open for when Separate Ways goes on sale, but may end up just buying it for the baseline $10.
Regarding Days Gone, I was leaning towards getting it played this year, so maybe I can do both. It’s a longer game though and harder for me to squeeze in.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
@Th3solution I played through the remake of Dead Space earlier this month and enjoyed every moment of it.
Were you planning on getting the PS5 version of Days Gone? I would need to borrow my Dad's copy to get it for a tenner if I fancied giving it a go, as I only have it through PS Plus.
Life is more fun when you help people succeed, instead of wishing them to fail.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.
@JohnnyShoulder I’m the same — I only have the PS+ copy of Days Gone for PS4, so I think I’ll just play that. It has a PS5 patch with 60 fps, if I’m not mistaken. The new PS5 Remaster didn’t set the world on fire as far as additional upgrades except for the new hoard mode that people really seemed to like. If I had access to the disc then I’d probably pay the $10 to get the full updated version though. As it is, I’ll probably just play what I have.
I tried Dead Space back on PS3 very briefly (maybe it was a demo or something, I can’t remember or if I borrowed from a friend). At the time I wasn’t really into horror/thriller/spooky games and so I just barely spent any time. I’m a totally different gamer now and have gained an appreciation for horror action and survival games. I don’t know if I’ve played a true space horror game yet though. Have you tried Callisto Protocol? Apparently it’s a poor man’s Dead Space, so until the DS2 Remake come it might be worth trying. I’m definitely putting it lower down the list after I’ve first cleared some of these other horror games.
@Th3solution
The demo for Dead Space on PS3 was nothing like the game, I played it and was put off purchasing the game however some time later I did buy it as basically there wasn’t much else to play at that time. Ending up loving that game.
As for Days Gone, yes it is 60fps. The PS4 version is fine and imo the remake wasn’t really needed but whatever,
@Th3solution two of my faves that you’re mulling over. The irony is that I’d say Dead Space is clearly the better game… but I prefer Days Gone. I’m aware of how little sense that makes 🤣
@Th3solution Not tried Callisto Protocol. It was on my PS5 for an age and then Dead Space dropped onto PS Plus. Doubt I will play it as Alan Wake 2 and Silent Hill 2 Remake are the next horror games I wanna play next. And then Resident Evil Requiem after those.
