@Leinad7 That many users, so why hasn't Steam Deck become a Nintendo Switch like mainstream product?
Steam Machine will find it's audience but I can't see any scenario where it's a legitimate competitor to PlayStation.

@Anthony_Daniels Oh I know that, it still sucks though.

Good on those guys trying to revive Concord, Sony never gave it a chance. Not even turning into F2P.

I think this is laying the groundwork to get more Japanese gamers to buy PS5s so that when the PS6 handheld is released they will more willing to buy it, since they would have a library already.

It's a niche product, even if it launches with Half Life 3. Those that want to game on PC will just get a PC.
The steam deck at least had the portability factor and even then it's sold less than 5 million units.

@KawakiisaFraud You mean the game that's nearly ten years old?

@T-Bone09 I don't know how that would work, to have a game that looks like Horizon but online with other players would be really challenging.

What makes me laugh is that for two years I've had to read comments on here about how "no one wants live service games" then as soon as one isn't announced for PS5, now it's a problem.

Hopefully this is Rockstar staggering this stuff out, first RDR1 then 2 then GTA4.

@Nepp67 I mean they spent the PS3 era making nothing but Killzone games.

Here's me still waiting on GTA 4.

We've had Sackboy, Fat Princess, Knack. Uncharted. PS Allstars, Wipeout and Wild Arms all get mobile games without a console port so this is nothing new. It's all about reaching new audiences and regions, especially Asia. Also Guerilla are making their own Horizon online game, it would make no sense for them to compete with each other.

Was hoping for Soul Caliber 3, I guess it'll be for December now. I wish we got more classic games a month.

@Dalamar I mean we had a R&C game 4 years ago. They won't be making Marvel games forever.

I always find it odd when you get these old games coming back and they don't prioritise the platform it came from.

@Hylian-Likely So you're a "shill" if no one agrees with you?

@Ralizah But then less people will know about it.

@DonJorginho That's because your judging the generation on exclusives and next gen only games, times of changed we're past that now.

@Frmknst It started in November 2020.

I still maintain that the Bungie acquisition can come good eventually. They had been badly mismanaged for a long time but with Sony taking more complete control of studio then things can change for the better.

Yeah it's rumoured that they have multiple projects going on.
The big online only game for multiplayer.
Then remake the first trilogy for those that want campaigns. Which is rather an indictment on their own campaigns really.

@Deljo Alright thanks for letting us know.

@DennisReynolds Yeah I was slightly disappointed that the regions were rather fragmented but still the all maps were still big with lots to do.

Yotei is better in terms of exploration and side quests. The weapon system is better than Tsushima's stances. The story for both are about the same for me. Atsu's revenge story is more personal and better villains but Jin's feels like it has more at stake.
Overall Yotei edges it for me for just the refinements they made.

Does anyone know if you can use this emulator on a modded Vita?

Cool I guess but I think most Switch players would rather that Nintendo's online infrastructure would act more like one in 2025 then 2005.

I've had a fair few of these "discounted for you" prices but was never all that enticed. I'm sure it won't be blown out of proportion.

Congratulations ND, now how about a return to Keef the Thief.

@Rich33 There's also Chameleon as well.
The Carnage story might be saved for the Venom game.
The girl teased at the end becomes Silk in the comics.
Where I think the story is going is that Peter takes a break, maybe marries MJ. Miles looks after things, maybe taking down some b tier villains. But when Doc Ok and Goblin come into the picture, that's when Peter has to come back.

I found when I played Train Sim World 2 is that I was content with the base game plus on piece of DLC cos it had my local station. So I think with games like these there gaming pic n mix.

Makes sense, if the Insomniac leak on their long term roadmap is to believed then we're getting a Venom game, Spider-Man 3 and X-Men as the sequel to Wolverine.

PlayStation's best commicials never showed games. The brand is the draw for these rather then individual games.

@Oram77 While I'm sure that's true, it still sucks for those who were playing it.

The biggest thing that annoyed me about the whole Concord saga was that Sony never gave it a chance. They shut it down within two weeks and didn't allow any sort of community to grow with it. And it just leads to future questions about how much are Sony willing to support their live service games if there not a big hit at launch.

@MichaelNau You as well? Lol

1000xResist and Satisfactory are the ones I'm looking out for to see how they are on PS5.

I preferred if they ported MCC over but I know it would be a nightmare to port. I'm currently going through the first game on my Steam Deck for the first time and I don't know if it's a controversial opinion, I don't like Anniversary edition's art style, it makes it look too generic.

Currently watching Max playing it and it seems like it has significant input delay and online is bad with the sound desyncing.

@Colour They don't have a PS2 emulator up and running yet.

@lazymike Was just going to say Pizza tower too.

I watched the first series of Chainsaw Man recently and I was hooked. I couldn't believe I was enjoying a show where the main character's overall goal is to touch boobs!

@MrPeanutbutterz For the longest time those were the gold standard for fighting game content.

@Questionable_Duck Considering how in the know he's supposed to be the fact he made such an "opinion" in the first place is wild.

@ButterySmooth30FPS Yes it was. Chronicles of the sword I believe it was called.

@ButterySmooth30FPS What a timeline huh?

@get2sammyb Exactly plus how are they going to reach that 30% profit margin if they take away revenue streams?

Hopefully Halo CE gets a physical version cos that will be a bit of a collectors item.

Remember that this is Jez Corden, the guy who flat out denied that MS weren't porting their games to PS5 despite the fact that he's just an unofficial spokesman for MS. The timing of this "rumour" is suss too because of the bad press Xbox is getting.

SC3 was the one I played the most, it was so packed with content which was rare for a fighting game at the time.

It's a shame because Bluepoint don't want to be seen as just the remaster studio. So this was probably a way to branch out but if Sony didn't feel it was coming together then best move on.
