Just wish one of these classics was Tekken 3. It's absolutely criminal that one of the greatest fighting games of all time has not been rereleased outside the PS1 Classic. I know there's licensing issues over Gon but if Capcom were able to get the MVC games back then I just don't think Namco have no excuses.
What I loved about Edgerunners was how it depicted Cyberpsychosis. In the game your largely just hunting people down who suffer from it but the series showed what it's like when they turn.
The fact that they let half the studio go, must mean they are at best going to be a support studio for Forza Horizon, maybe even being a port house for other platforms. I know it's reboot seemed to tank but jeez.
For all the criticism people throw at Sony for holding back on their game reveals, I'd rather they do that then risk announcing something that might never come out.
@Anya-Chan When I was playing Forza Horizon 5, I found myself yearning to play Motor storm again. It's something I wish they used Nixxes for, remaster their PS3 era games.
I haven't finished it yet but right now it's at least a 9. It's very much the same as the original but there's so much more variety in how to approach the environment. The whole "walking simulator" criticism is completely mute at this point because you get access to vehicles within the first 3 hours so there's no excuses now.
I mean Phil Spencer as early as February this year said they were going to give Rare as much time as they need to finish Everwild only to then cancel it. So is it anymore surprising that those clowns think they have something good but then crap themselves when budget comes into play.
@Fiendish-Beaver So what your saying is that Phil has no backbone. If he cared that much about the health of the industry (and how morally wrong it is to let thousands of people go despite them working for a 2 trillion dollar company) then he should just resign on the grounds that "he can't fulfil his job like he was expecting too" it's not like he's going to go skint anytime soon and will easily find a job elsewhere. At least then he can keep a modicum of respect despite his failures. The tagline is justified cos the guy is nothing but a corporate husk.
I honestly feel that Phil Spencer should resign. His decisions have ultimately led to Xbox having to completely who there are as a company because he was unable to make them a competitive ecosystem.
@Flaming_Kaiser When I first heard of them I just thought "yeah it's a stupid girl band with a gimmick" then I heard them and was like "oh no I think I like them".
I'm sure deep down there logical and economical reasons for it. But when multi billion dollar corporations (in this case trillion dollar) decide to let go hundreds or even thousands of people it never not feels at best baffling...at worst gross.
@RBMango This my thought too. I've got a theory that Wolverine will be announced at Evo because it makes so much sense. Sony are making a Wolverine game after all and with how important it he was to the history of Marvel vs Capcom, him been announced there would bring the house down.
@DaveTheRave I don't know if it was but I remember that they had to let a lot of people go and the future just didn't look good for awhile.
Just had a quick Google. Over 5 years ago they closed off their American offices which put a lot of doubt into future western releases.
I would love for PS to do an article where they compare Sony's 1st party output from PS4 to PS5 because I bet aside from some small games, the cadence of single player AAA games is pretty much the same.
The choices were a bit too broad for me. For me TLOU2 is an incredible in almost every aspect except arguably in it's most important feature... it's story is a terrible sequel to TLOU1.
@Dlld0Baggins It usually people who like moving goalposts all the time. They say "PS5 has no games" because they discount anything that's 3rd party, cross gen and on PC.
What's always baffled me is why Sony didn't try to port their PSVR1 games. Titles like Iron-Man, Astro Bot, Wipeout and Blood and Truth all left behind.
@get2sammyb Apparently Sony recently listed Bungie as a PS Studio in their business meeting so if that's the case then it's possible that they will take complete control of the studio and actually get it into shape.

Re: Tokyo Game Show 2025 Set to Be Biggest Ever, Confirms Sony, Square Enix, SEGA, More
@PuppetMaster I'm half expecting something at Evo. I suppose it depends on how gradually they want to reveal more of the roster and features.
Re: Tokyo Game Show 2025 Set to Be Biggest Ever, Confirms Sony, Square Enix, SEGA, More
I wonder if we'll get Marvel Tokon news there. Sony may want to tap into the FGC community over there.

@Jrs1 I'm also hoping for Extreme G Racing to get a rerelease, even if it's just as a PS2 classic.
Re: Peak Polygonal Dogfighting Targeting PS5, PS4 in Air Combat 22 Port
@Jrs1 Cool, I'll be getting when it goes on sale.
Re: Ghost of Yotei's Pricey $250 PS5 Collector's Edition Is for the Hardcore Fans Only
I think the only collectors edition I could be tempted to buy is if Marvel Tokon did one.

@Jrs1 Which version of RR did you play cos didn't the PS5 one have different features?
Re: Delta Force Is Finally Set for Free-to-Play Return on PS5 This August

So Leon will be in his 50s if the game is set 30 years after RE2, which is interesting.

@RoomWithaMoose I'm not saying it isn't but I thought it was funny at the timing of the article.

I mean Sony did just release a 1st party game for it this week .

@htduy89 Because we had 6 of them already.
@PuppetMaster It wouldn't surprise me if Bluepoint or Valkyrie are making it to be honest.
Re: God of War's Rumoured Metroidvania Now Due in 2026 on PS5
I mean it was just obvious since it wasn't at SoP or SGF.
Re: Talking Point: What's Your PS5 Game of the Year for 2025 So Far?
Blue Prince
Forza
Indiana Jones
For me but I'd surprised if any of them will be in my top 5 by the end of the year.
