I know I've never owned the license or rights to any game. But with my retro games I own a physical licensed copy. But its still my copy of the game & it loads whenever I want to play it. I dont own the rights or license to say Thunderforce 4 on my Megadrive. But actually own the copy of the game on cartridge. So no one like Sony can pick & choose to delete digital games when it suits them. That's why physical will always be better.
At last the kind of game I want, great single player action adventure. The bonus no open world filler *****. Regards to reinventing the wheel, no game does that nowadays.
I have been gaming for many many years, way before PlayStation existed. I've been of fan since PS1. But this news feels like a kick on Bollocks. They either think twice & revert back to physical on PS6 or basically im done. Its sad but that's me I thoughts on this.
Personally stopped buying collectors editions, limited editions. They end being worthless anyway. I had all three Gears of war collectors editions, lucky if they are worth a fiver each. Same with Skyward sword on Wii, boxset not worth alot.
Here we go again, more vapour ware, Unreal 5 promised amazing things. Remember that tomb raider style tech demo on PS5. Still waiting for something that good to show up. Know doubt same again with Unreal 6, rinse repeat.
Made the mistake of buying the VR2 at launch, hoped it was going to be something special. Unfortunately Sony abandoned it & basically didn't give a *****. Astrobot not coming to VR2 was the final nail in the box.
Amazing tech, let down by Sony, pisses me off i spent over £500 on it at launch. Sold it over a year ago, I knew it was finished when the new Astrobot was just PS5 flat version. Anyone who still think its got a future is seriously deluded, its dead !! Ironically I still have PSVR1 because it has better games.
Power means ***** without great games, its about time they focused on software for the existing hardware. With regards to handheld they have tried before & failed against Nintendo.
Yep VR2 is dead, paided £530 on the damn thing. For Sony not to give a *****, I know someone will try to defend it. But they are in denial. I sold it on over a year ago, haven't missed it one bit. Its a shame, such potential let down by Sony.
Thank ***** for that, sick to the back teeth of everything being roguelike, soulslike, roguelite, openworld, only downside, no doubt its metroidvania. Which is also done to death, practically every platformer is metroidvania.
Great to see this arcade racer at last, on home systems. Will definitely be adding this to my collection. The unfortunate thing is no physical release.
@Dman10 exactly, its all about money!! They have no passion to actually produce games that alot of gamers want. But if they dont sell millions they aren't interested.
Everything that made PlayStation brilliant from the start of PS1. Is being destroyed from the out of touch IDIOTS!!! In charge. Obviously not even gamers, no passion for the medium what so ever.
Unfortunately when that days comes, I wont be buying much. Certainly not paying top prices for new games. Basically stuck on a Hard drive, no worth, no physical collectors editions, no resale value, no thanks.
@Bettyswollocks totally agree, what most of em can't get there tiny little minds around. Is this is a small studio, that specialise in retro gaming. Basically it was a passion project, they pitched it to Sony. They liked it, it was never intended to be some AAA title. Again the usual toxic crowd dont like it, so completely ***** on it.
NO !! stay the same, these amazing games should be respected as they are. The mechanics in the old & new are completely different. Personally the new titles feel clunky. Compared to the fast brutal combat of the originals. If they are completely changed i wont be buying.
@TheFakulty not interested in online gaming, certainly not interested in any of the games you mentioned. They are ***** anyway, only interested in single player gsmes:)
@Member_the_game @naruball that's what im getting at. Your paying a monthly payment for something you dont own. That's why my point is with a physical copy i bought, i own. And can play it forever.
Looks amazing, such a great surprise. Absolutely love Megacat studios, there Megadrive games are top tier as well. Same for Bitmap bureau with the awesome Terminator 2D no fate.
And this is what Sony would rather throw there money into. Instead of investing in the vast back catalogue of quality they have, no hope really. I expect the usual disappointment from the show.

Re: 'That Looks Like Sh*t': God of War Creator Predictably Tears New PS5 Game to Shreds
Personally I still prefer the original Trilogy of GoW. But I like the look of this new game more than the 2018 game & Ragnarok.

Re: Another Highly Regarded PSVR2 Dev on the Brink After Mass Layoffs
@CorporateZombi roll your eyes shrug your shoulders all you want, obviously your easily pleased. Most of the games are mediocre at best.

Re: Hardware Snoop Tips Rumoured PS6 Handheld to Be a Beast
@Bats1234 agreed, Nintendo always beat em at the handheld game. Because of the software range.

Re: 'We're Only Talking About the PS5': Saros Director on Cancelled PC Port Reports
Oh well never mind, the PC crowd obviously don't want to play quality games. Good for Sony, need to keep stuff exclusive in my opinion anyway.
