Rather have had it sooner and without English voice-over myself but really hyped to finally be getting this in the West regardless.

Hmm, the next Japan Studio game would be cool to see. I liked when they were doing smaller games like Puppeteer and Rain near the end of the PS3's life.
Dragon Quest XI finally getting a release date would be nice : p (It's an exclusive if you don't count the 3DS version too).

I like Battlefield and Need for speed (though the last couple were pretty meh). Dice is a decent studio but I feel like they aren't able to do what they want/take the time they need/oppose putting microtransactions etc in/not releasing games with less content as they were rushed.

I think this just means for instance on PC it'll look phenomenal and sure eventually it could get a re-release on PS5.
Similar to how Crysis was future-proof and when it released barely anyone could play it on max settings.

He fits really well.
Still hoping 2B is another guest character, that would be just as awesome

Is... that a charge blade without a shield? : / Or the shield is invisible?

Dragon Quest XI sold 2 mil copies in 2 days (JP only). Monster Hunter World took 3 days (worldwide) : p

I'd put Dragon Quest XI in that list too : p

Still hoping for Taki, Hilde and Raphael
Can't see anything wrong with the character models/visuals myself. Not sure how long they still have to polish things still so might be a moot point regardless.

I spent about 30 hours doing every side-quest and exploring each area etc. Then since there were other games I wanted to play I realized 'd never go back and finish AC so just blitzed through the main story missions.
The game was so big I didn't even go into a lot of the map. I don't know why it even needs DLC. Same could be said of The Witcher though and look how they turned out...

How many games have TDM? Now how many have Battle Royale? We could use more.

One of my favourite game soundtracks for sure. Does anyone know of any of Kow Otani's other music is as good/similar?

This reminded me that it was coming soon and I still hadn't seen a special edition up for preorder. Guess we aren't getting one in the UK?

I do feel like there's something wrong when I can buy RPGs like The Witcher for £50 and they give me hundreds of hours of enjoyment and games that are far shorter and not necessarily as entertaining cost the same.
Titanfall 2 for instance had a great campaign but I never bothered with the multiplayer so the amount of time I played the game for was pretty short. In that case I feel like I should have paid less or only for the campaign somehow.
Something like The Witcher or Persona I'd have been okay paying extra for because I got so much out of them.

1. Dragon Quest XI
2. Ni No Kuni II
3. Soul Calibur VI

Lots of others I'm looking forward to but these three I'd go so far as to probably buy Collector's Editions of : p

I really like betas, you get to try before you buy.
I've had some that sold the game for me and others that did the opposite.

I'm fine with this, Soul Calibur next year and hopefully DOA6 the year after. The full 3D movement in those two franchises has always made them my favourites out of all the fighting games I've played.
The DLC could have done with being a bit cheaper imo (for individual costumes, the season passes were a joke) but I liked that they kept supporting it and adding new characters/outfits.

I don't mind too much even though I'm really hyped for this game. I'll pick up Monster Hunter in Jan instead.
I just reeeaaally don't want it to clash with Dragon Quest XI

Can't wait! Going back to when they were younger seems like a smart move. I hope they can still somehow fit Hilde in.

Here's a short interview section on the game:

This is exactly what I want for remasters. None of this horrible looking Mobile Final Fantasy stuff or 3D Secret of Mana. It looses the charm of the original.

I have heard from a number of people that Fifa is broken but I think they still continue to play it.
I'm glad to hear they're altering the progression system for NFS, I'll wait for that to continue playing. Really it's the only thing holding back a fun game, hopefully it's not such a grind afterwards.

I bought a Switch with the intention of playing it at home. The portability was just an added bonus. However I've been playing it out and about more than I expected and the two built-in controllers work really well to just hand someone one and have a match.

This is surprising to hear but actually has me intrigued as to what they're planning.
I feel like it could be something new/unique.

Well it's been ages since the last Soulcalibur game and now Tekken is finally out that's likely what the studio is working on, right?
Plus it wouldn't interfere with Dragon Ball's sales if it's released late 2018 for instance.

If it is delayed I'm likely to pick up Monster Hunter... I suppose the more polished the game is the better.

Japanese audio would be a good fit for sure. I always liked how Assasin's Creed had the ambient dialogue in the natural language.

Plus I stick subs on my english games too. Just find it easier and never miss/misshear any dialogue.

I'm liking digital but they really shouldn't cost as much as physical discs do.
Need for Speed Payback I was all set to buy on PSN... It's £60 for the standard edition. I ordered it for about £45 from simplygames instead. Now I have to hope it arrives on time >_<

The only thing that bugged me was that it's kinda spoilerish. Like I will remember that scene and now I know whoever that was survives.

Violence-wise it's no worse than The Walking Dead so seems par for the course for this genre

Mario>CoD>Need for Speed>AC: Origins. It's looking pretty good for the next month to me : p
See what else Destiny 2 throws at us too

So wait for the inevitable complete 'ultimate' edition down the road... gotcha.

I always did like the 3D fighting games more. Hoping for a new Soul Calibur entry next. Plus DOA5 is finally stopping all the DLC so we might get a new one of those in the not so distant future. The Dragon Ball game does look amazing too.

Damnit, was going to play today. Wish we at least knew what exactly they were doing that needs the game to be offline. You'd think they could choose a better time to do it

I was pleasantly surprised to find Pokken Tournament has the exact tutorial systems i like. One where you progress trough every move your character can do and another with some combos to learn. In addition to tutorials covering the mechanics of the game.

I love the portability and playing local multiplayer with my Switch and it's two built-in controllers but at the same time I'd probably trade it in for a PS4 Pro/Scorpio level Nintendo home console so Zelda etc could have looked mind-blowingly good.

I really want there to be a cheaper, without-the-free-games PS+ option.
Like it's either cheap games I don't care about or great games that I already bought. There really is no way to win, I'd rather feel like I was't paying extra for them when all I want is to play online.

I'll try it if it ever comes out in the UK...

I was playing it when it went down and have plans starting when it goes back up >__<
Kinda annoying the Destiny app didn't mention the maintenance : /

Well I bought it digitally instead of physically this time around.
Plus I imagine a fair few people are waiting for the PC release...
Also yeah fair enough a good number of people bought Destiny 1 and were disappointed by it.

Definitely want this game after how much I enjoyed Memories of Celceta but will have to see how my Destiny addiction is going when it's released...

Kinda conflicted on this. I love the Mana games and have been saying for ages they should remake them but this looks kinda horrible so far : /
Wish they'd put some budget into it like the FF VII remakes.
Or stuck with pixel graphics like the original but modernized so the game didn't lose it's charm... And that voice over, please have a toggle off for that.

That was an annoying way to end the trailer.
Reminds me of the racoon thing from Guardians.

Oh awesome. I was waiting to see what the limited editions for Ni no Kuni II were... I loved the Wizard's edition of the first game with the book.
Bit weird how we got a plushie last time but not this year in the EU : /
Vinyl isn't of much interest to me, I'll buy the CD version of the soundtrack separately I guess.
Which leaves do I want to spend an extra £110 vs the standard edition (at shopto.net) for a very nice diorama and an art book. Oh and the season pass. Why does this game have a season pass? : / I'll have to do some research...

Oh and GAME have the Prince's edition exclusively in the UK >__<

I had no idea a beta for this happened. It's one of those game I'd want to try before buying...

Hell yes, Ni no Kuni 2 and DQXI next year. Imagine if we get the first FFVII game as well...

I really think they should have two options, one cheaper just to play online and one more expensive with all the extra stuff that might be hiking the price up (Since we've finally started getting decent free games).
The only thing I'd pay for is to play online, everything else is just an extra that I could do without. Can't remember the last PS+ game I even bothered to play, I have enough games to try and keep up with as it is.

If there was a cheaper option without the monthly games/discounts etc and just for online I think people would opt for it.
£50 is high but I play online so have no choice but to pay it...

£10 a year is a pretty big jump with no justification given...
Not like we have a choice if we want to play online. Can see more people waiting and getting Destiny 2 on PC instead of PS4 because of this...

Aww man, this is my most anticipated game. I wish they'd not given the original release date if there was a chance it would be delayed and left it as 'TBC 2017'. Now I'll have to move that week off I booked >_>

I think they'll stick to the £350 price point. When the available tech for a noticeable leap is available cheap enough to pull that off then they'll consider it.
I think most people are happy with the quality of PS4 games at the moment anyway, don't see much reason to rush another Gen out when this one is going so well.

The assassins creed origins deluxe edition preorder is on offer to about the price of the normal edition too
