PlayStation gamers are trained to BUY the games they want instead of renting
And the sales numbers only serve to further enforce the facts that Sony doesn’t need or want a Gamepass alternative like all the Xbox fans and non gamers are asking for
@nessisonett Gamepass isn’t convoluted!? So they don’t have separate subscriptions for pc and console?!? So Xbox hasn’t had the worst free game giveaways in the form of Xbox live gold for months almost years now?? So Outriders being announced as a Gamepass day 1 release but it not being available on the pc Gamepass isn’t convoluted or anti consumer????? You should join PushX or whatever fan site they have set up because your negative opinions have added nothing to this community lately
@nessisonett so now you’re complaining about FREE stuff!?! I’m baff...oh wait
Glad you aren’t an Xbox player. Can’t imagine how many times someone buys a game only for it to show up on Gamepass shortly after..we would never hear the end of it!!
Just when I think my gaming habits are too much and need to be put in check as an adult with a life outside the bedroom, games like this remind me that there’s people actually wasting their time playing this and it’s not me after all!!
@Jeevz free trophies? I had some trophy prgress on the PS4 version before downloading and playing the PS5 version but none of my trophies popped. This is my first time playing a game that was upgraded from PS4 to PS5 so figured the trophy thing wasn’t a big deal...
The revert resistance is NOT a welcome addition, it makes pulling one off that much harder and inconsistent in practice. I’ve never had an issue with triggers or haptics negatively impacting my experience so this is a first. A positive is the performance in split screen co-op has improved tremendously! If I hadn’t bought the digital deluxe edition on sale this upgrade wouldn’t be worth $10 extra
@Rob_230 haptics and adaptive trigger are a nice touch but pretty basic so far
1. Rumble feels unique for manuals, grinding, ollies, breaking through objects, bailing, etc.
2. R2 bumper offers resistance when pressing it and clicks into place when enough force is used similar to Miles Morales swinging
3. More sounds also come out of the controllers speaker
There’s far too many Japanese directors I’d love to see helm this, especially considering it would be a cool reverse of the video game being made by western developers. Excited nonetheless!
Can we just appreciate how Ubisoft flopped hard on quality going into next gen!? They literally had the premier position to provide polished and sexy games for PS5 & SeriesX instead we got bargain bin experiences you couldn’t make me play for free
Simple answer - just like Cyberpunk this game broke record sales even before release. And like Cyberpunk the developers & leadership of this game have no more incentive to finish or fix it after making ALL THE MONEY
The focus is now on sequels to these games, rinse cycle repeat
There’s some inappropriate jokes I’d love to make if only had the creativity or imagination... lacking those 2 things has sadly kept me from trying Dreams!!
@naruball Sony & Microsoft are in no way affected by Switch sales, as someone has pointed out earlier the biggest reason being Nintendo’s console is a complimentary system, oftentimes being the most recent console a household has purchased given the fact they probably already own an Xbox or PlayStation from last gen. Comparing a $200/300 system sales to $400/500 hardware is recipe for skewed results! Software sales are most important topic here, the fact that Switch games are topping the charts has a lot to do with brand recognition and loyalty (see Mario & Animal crossing for examples) plus more systems being available in stores as others have pointed out. Not to mention the BIGGEST fact being children make up the majority of gamers around the world these days...no surprise Nintendo is popular
@Ralizah @Ralizah I admit to being too worked up over these things DUH IT LOOKS IDENTICAL
YouTube compression uploaded in 1080p and people are actually complaining about the games visuals... everyday my hope of a dystopia full of informed and rational gamers seems like a pipe dream!
Hey Last of Us fans!!! Did you LOVE the story of 1st game but felt lukewarm on events during the sequel!? Rest assured, the tv show will follow the first game with “deviations” that in no way should impact your feelings negatively! That’s right, the changes we’re making will improve the story!! Don’t trust us? Neither do we
Congrats to the Xbox team for making backwards compatible/ upgrades a relatively painless process
I’m absolutely more tech savvy than your average person but can still appreciate the added convenience “smart delivery” offers
With that in mind I purchased a PS5 knowing there would be kinks and quirks that early adopters face, and so far my gaming experience hasn’t been impacted enough to justify not purchasing it day 1
@nessisonett I haven’t played many Japanese titles but you’re absolutely spot on regarding Tomb Raider, somehow forgot about those scenes in the first reboot
@Culjoseth I’m pretty sure when most people complain about living in America it has nothing to do with the video game industry or censorship...there’s actual REAL LIFE problems that exist outside of fantasy reality, however this isn’t the time nor place to discuss such things.
Brilliant idea let’s highlight the mediocre weightless core combat that Ubisoft loves to incorporate in every 3rd person action game going forward (Fenix Rising feels like fighting in space on the moon wearing rollerblades)
Ghost of Tsushima got combat right, the studio showed passion and patience to perfect the system and it was their FIRST ATTEMPT
Creed has how many mainline games in the franchise and they STILL SUCK AT COMBAT
@Pleasance yeah kinda like when I didn’t get an email invite to have the pleasure of purchasing a PS5 from Sony themselves, despite having an active ps+ sub for 12 years and owning more digital games than physical by a mile

Re: Latest BioMutant Trailer Showcases Combat and Style
I’m 100% convinced they are using money from the ridiculously priced special editions and preorders of this game to help finish it
Re: Knockout City Explains Its Dodge-Brawl Gameplay in New Trailer
Looks like a similarly online focused game that flopped super hard on PlayStation recently...

Re: One Handed Swords are Coming to Assassin's Creed Valhalla Following Months of Fan Requests
Let me guess! The BEST looking and coolest abilities will be tied to one handed swords sold in the Animus Store or whatever they call it these days
Re: Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 on PS5 Supports Cross-Save, Activity Cards, DualSense, and More
Does this mean split screen co-op is 60fps for each player??

yeah okay

Re: Sony Must Communicate Its Plans for PS3, PS Vita, and PSP
Jim Ryan has already communicated their plans loud & clear...
“WE BELIEVE IN GENERATIONS”
This quote was taken to mean they wouldn’t be releasing any new PS4 games now that PS5 was officially released, seems we were short sighted!

Re: Soapbox: PSVR's Crap Load of Cables Has Put Me Off
Cable spaghetti huh? Would love to see most of the peoples entertainment setups who complain about this type of thing...
Imagine living in a future where VR is equivalent to Ready Player One levels but with 12 cords you need to attach in total
Some people would STILL complain despite being able to literally transport to another reality
