@MrPeanutbutterz "Spend some time offline", says the guy that was literally online making replies. My mother's basement? I haven't lived with my mother for 36 years. She is at stage 5/end-stage renal disease, close to death, and would absolutely love if her son came to stay with her during her final days. Her basement is incredibly large too, so it really wouldn't be a bad living situation.

Go change your diaper, child, since you keep crapping yourself over a complete strangers opinion. And you are a child, as is evident by your kindergarten level insults. Or... maybe you're a full grown man but your alcohol misuse and binge-drinking has given you Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome. Something pretty typical in Ireland so I'm not at all surprised.

@cainhurst94 I see what you tried to do there but... uh.... no. That doesn't add up. "Was" in your comment would be referring to "this", meaning the mysterious ps store listing. If you had meant to refer to Nintendo's past offering you would have said "It would be cool if this is like Nintendo's gold coin system was on the switch."

@MrPeanutbutterz What part of "Imo it's weird to pray that a game lives up to your standards, but then refuse to look at all of the available info about said game that would tell you everything you needed to know about it." are you having trouble with, exactly? And "gaslightinger? LOL! Nothing left to say to you. You say you hope a game turns out well, but refuse to see how the game has turned out. Cope. Buh-bye now.

@cainhurst94 Nintendo discontinued the gold coins for both physical and digital purchases almost a year ago.

@MrPeanutbutterz Imo it's weird to pray that a game lives up to your standards, but then refuse to look at all of the available info about said game that woukd tell you everything you needed to know about it.

I never even insinuated that. You made that up in your own head. It doesn't matter if you were going to buy them anyway, you still had to buy them to get the "free" credit. It's not my fault you can't understand that requiring a purchase to get something in return does not equate to free. If they just added the funds to your account without any requirements... that would be free. But here you are... I spent £1500 first!!! Lmao. Would they have given you the credit had you not purchased £1500 worth of games? No, so not free. You also moved your goal posts at the end. You went from "free" to "bonus". 😂 Don't bother carrying on with this ridiculous argument.

@MrPeanutbutterz Pretty weird. "Praying up to snuff" but refuse to look at any info about it you'd need to know. 😂

@GamingGod No. LOL! It was not free money. A few £20's means you would have had to spend around £1500. In what world do you live in where needing to spend £1500 to get a few "free" £20's equates to free money? If it was free, you'd have not had to spend ANY money first.

Mario Kart World is garbage. CrossWorlds is the far superior game of the two. I'm seeing a lot of comments from people that have either never played it, or only played the demo.

@GamingGod No, you did not make quite a bit of $ off Stars. Please tell us all how much you had to spend first. It's like saying "Sony gave me $10 for free! All I had to do was spend $250 first!" lol

So, a bunch of garbage games.

@MrPeanutbutterz It's been available for like 5 months now. You've watched no gameplay or read any reviews?

@Czar_Khastik Better way is to get on the Pro cycle. Buy the PS5 Pro, skip the PS6, buy the PS6 Pro, etc.

“This remake doesn’t simply recreate the original – it expands upon it and goes even deeper with additional side stories and new areas. And as well as the original ending, a special new ending has been added which features a newly written song, ‘Utsushie’, composed by Tsukiko Amano.”

There were 6 total endings. 3 on the original version, 1 on both the Xbox and Wii versions, and 2 more only on the Wii version. With the statement above I wonder if we're only getting 2 endings total.

Pass for me. I can't stand this genre of games. Also... "fairly lengthy, and we had some games upwards of 20 minutes". In what world is 20 minutes fairly lengthy? lol. Even a normal game of Mario Party is around 90 minutes.

@nomither6 Except no. Stop with that "PS3 was more powerful than high end PC!!!" nonsense. It's just simply not an accurate statement to make whatsoever. Any PS3 vs PC gameplay comparison video will show you this.

P.S. You're still unfairly and unjustly comparing price/value from 2006 with 2026. lol

@nomither6 Once again, you're comparing prices from 2006 with the current economy which is a bad faith comparison from the beginning. And the PS3 "was more powerful than THE MOST powerful PC for about a good year and a half or so" HAHAHA!!! What? Are you telling me PC's at the time were playing games locked to 30fps? I'm not even going to waste more of my time with you.

@nomither6 You're comparing prices from 2006? HAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA!!! Can you buy a new PC today for the same price as 2006? Are your groceries the same price? Gas? Rent? Your comparison is completely invalid.

All of the "cancel my subscription" comments. Uh huh. Sure you are. You know that you're not only paying only for the three monthly extras, right? You're paying for access to close to 1000 games.

I never get the "despite it's price" thing. Can't buy a new PC that will outperform it for a lower price.

@MrPeanutbutterz No internet warrior at all. I'm too old for that. Everyone likes different things, has different tastes, feels one thing is better than the other, etc. I'm 54 & have been playing racers since the original sit down Night Driver arcade game in the late 70's. Haha. It's all I guess just a matter of us liking different approaches to drifting, mechanics, etc. Cheers.

@MrPeanutbutterz I'll even take back my statement of HWU being mid. I actually think it's complete trash. The games economy sucks, blind boxes, stat allocation is terrible, car handling = horrendous, lame drifting, rubber band AI, etc. etc. etc. I could list 20 things that I think make it garbage. Not saying you can't feel completely opposite, but majority of user reviews seem to side with me on HWU vs Sonic CrossWorlds. Most dislike HWU and CrossWorlds has gotten great reviews.

@MrPeanutbutterz I very strongly, but respectfully, disagree. Imo HWU is mid at best. I give the crown to Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds.

£299.99/$349.99 is not a "pretty pricey" or "really expensive" headset. Not even close. Also, you're listening to the wrong "Half Life". Djo stinks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tK8hDnjn0XY

Looking at all of the comments, it's very clear that most people here don't know a whole lot about tvs. They simply hear a name like Sony and think it's going to be the best tv they ever owned... they hear TCL and assume it's going to be the worst. All of that is quite uneducated. For example, comparing one of TCL's top end 2025 models to Sonys 2025 model that is in the same price range.

TCL QM8K:
https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/tcl/qm8k

2025 Sony Bravia 7:
https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/sony/bravia-7-qled

The thing a lot of people don't understand is that every brand has their low, mid, and high end sets. You can't simply compare brand names, you also have to take model numbers into consideration. For another example, compare the TCL above to the following... also a 2025 Sony Bravia:

2025 Sony Bravia 2:
https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/sony/bravia-2-ii

Now, try to tell me that Bravia 2 is better than the TCL. Also, the Bravia 8 OLED is literally WORSE than the TCL and the Bravia 7 QLED. Then we have the Bravia 9, that the TCL VERY easily stands toe to toe with. As has also already been pointed out, Sony don't even make their own panels. TCL makes them.

I own the 75" TCL QM8K and it's simply amazing. Sorry some of you must have owned one of the TCL models where you can get 75" for $300 and wonder why isn't a not very good tv, and then think you should have bought the $300 Sony instead... thinking it was going to be better just because of the brand name.

@Sakhasm The subscription is for more than the three monthly extras. These are only the "freebies" included with subscription. They should stop listing them separately and just include them in the entire list of monthly catalog additions. There were 14 others not listed here.

@Balie3000 Haha. No problem. 😂

@Balie3000 Make sure to play the first three Ebola games or you won't have any idea what's happening in Village.

Hilarious to me that some people spent a lot of $$$ on a copy of this, thinking that it was related to the leak of the BootROM keys & that they could use this game to take advantage of it. Two completely different things and the only thing this game will do is allow jailbreak up to FW 12. If/when an exploit is found using the leaked keys, it will not rely on any specific FW as it can only be patched with a hardware revision.

@GamingGod Right, but Bloobers games already have a history of poor PSSR implementation. Sony either needs to step in to give assistance to 3rd party devs, or force ALL games with PSSR to have a toggle to disable it if desired.

I don't make new years resolutions and have never understood them. Why wait for a specific date to start making changes a person wants to make?

@Propaperpusher Cornos? You must have bought the Wish or Temu version of the game. No wonder you were so disappointed. LOL! https://imgur.com/a/J3bLqtD

@DTfearTheBEARD I understand. Having a preference to play physical is one thing, but the "Unless it's digital only/game key card, then they can keep it" comment sounds like you just won't play it at all if it's a Switch exclusive and there is no physical release, even if it was a great game.

@DTfearTheBEARD You wouldn't play a game solely because it was digital only? Lame.

If it's a game coming to PS5, I hope they leave *****-tastic PSSR out. Or at least a toggle to turn it off. And yeah, I know about the upcoming PSSR v2 supposedly coming this year. Ok. Great... but when?

I have never played a single Yakuza game and I didn't know about the controversies surrounding the DC until after the original was already de-listed. I did however, then find a cheap steam key for $5 that redeemed for the original just fine. Don't think I'll pay the $15 to upgrade as everything I've seen says it's not worth it and that the new cut scenes kinda ruin part of the game. Maybe after I've already played the original AND I can upgrade for $10 at the most. Nice thing though, is the original stays in your Steam account even if you upgrade.

Sorry We're Closed and Blue Prince both suck imo.

If a game not having trophies is "A scourge on history", you're playing games for the wrong reasons. "A scourge on history"??? Really? LOL! One of the top over-reactions I've seen this year.

@Weebleman I am crossing my fingers that the games with PSSR issues will get patches after this big update, and that's what they've been waiting for. Crossing my fingers, but not holding my breath.

@Dudeitsme https://dualshock-tools.github.io/

@Areus https://dualshock-tools.github.io/

I've been holding off on playing this and their SH2 remake. I have a PS5 Pro and they both (along with a small handful of other titles) have some bad shimmering and weird graphical glitches due to PSSR. Since Bloober & Konami don't seem to care about releasing actual Pro patches, I'm hoping that the new version of PSSR coming next year with FSR4 features will fix the issues. If not, guess I'll start playing anyway.

@StitchJones Yes, you are correct. it is three, not two as I previously stated. Still, those three made to be their smallest still allows a person to see most all of their theme. I do agree on not liking that it changes when you hover over a game. There should be a toggle like Xbox has that lets you keep your theme or show game art when moving over tiles.

@Jammer Not a perfect solution, but you're only forced to have t̶w̶o̶ three widgets on the home screen. Set t̶w̶o̶ three of your choice to the smallest size and you can still see the majority of your background.

@Shepherd_Tallon The only requirement is to not have an active subscription. People have been doing this for years.

This has been a thing for years now. Most people who are interested in getting in on these sales have had plenty of time to get in on them, so that their sub expires in time to renew during the next years sale. Mine expires Nov 27th so I'll be good to go on the sale price.

@Oram77 Yeah, and this game is published by Konami too. I think what Bloober wanted to say but couldn't... is that Konami aren't paying them, or not paying them enough, to make a Pro patch. How hard can it be to just simply add a toggle to run base PS5 mode? I think most people would be okay if that's all they did.

@Oram77 @DTfearTheBEARD Don't get hopes up for a Pro patch of any sort. They never fixed the issues on the Pro with the SH2 Remake.

"Once Upon a Katamari, Pac-Man World 2 Re-Pac, and Super Robot Wars Y were all treated to new expansions, each of which you can learn about below."

You forgot to include the info about the Katamari expansion.
