This feels like this could've been an update instead of an upgrade.

I thought the show was boring because half of the games shown looked exactly the same to me. Save for The Midnight Walk, Shinobi, and the octopus game, everything just all started to blend together.

Oh wow, I only just now realized that Tides of Annihilation and Lost Soul Aside are two different games. 🤣🤣🤣

I think my problem with the show was that some of the best announcements were for games we already knew about. It also felt disproportionately filled with third-person action games. They all kind of blend together for me. I will say, Shinobi looked good.

Yet another thing that Sony has to catch up to when it comes to Nintendo's creativity and ingenuity in the gaming space.

Oh my gosh. Screw Sony. In one generation, I went from loving Sony to hating basically everything they make and do. Except Astro Bot. That was their one saving grace this generation.

What a great year for Sony. I don't know what could possibly come out this year that would knock the PS5 out of first place in terms of hardware and software sales...

This generation has been so bad that I have entirely lost any faith I had in Sony as a game publication studio. The PS5 will be, without question, the last Sony console I own. I will be gaming exclusively on PC and Nintendo consoles from here on out.

Nintendo won't compete, but Nintendo is going to absolutely floor the competition with their game releases with the Switch 2 generation. Sony was in first place in every regard with the PS4 generation, and now they cannot seem to stop pooping the bed at every single possible chance they can get.

This is my kind of list. I am so bored of AAA games' lack of creativity and originality, and I have virtually no interest in playing GTA 6.

I'm not worried about how powerful Switch 2 will be. I want to know what games Nintendo is cooking up for it, and I have no doubt it's going to be fantastic.

Sony currently has the most powerful console of all time, but they didn't release a single new game for its release. The power of a console has very little to do with how much enjoyment one can have with it.

All I want for Christmas is a 9 iron.

That certainly is a choice...

AH HELL YES!! It looks like Astro Bot, Metaphor, Balatro, and Helldivers 2 basically swept the awards, and rightly so. For once, the game awards got it right this year.

Astro Bot or Metaphor should win. Black Myth or Elden Ring will actually win.

I'm not sure I need to play these on PS5 Pro when I in absolutely no way, shape, or form feel the need to spend $800 on this pointless console upgrade.

I'm excited for the Switch 2 and its price announcement. Sony should have to work to try and enter the handheld market again, unlike how they are doing whatever they want without competition in the home console space.

But honestly, who is paying $60 for a Lego game?

The price, though. I can't imagine how much this thing would cost.

I'm playing through P3:R now, and it's a crime that it was completely snubbed. At the very least, it should have been nominated for art direction.

The real snub this year is Unicorn Overlord.

This is really impressive. I couldn't remember if GoW: Ragnorok won or not. Thank goodness it didn't.

Games that will be nominated for GOTY:

• FF7 Rebirth
• Elden Ring DLC
• Wukong
• Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered
• The Last of Us Part 2 Remastered

Games that should actually be nominated and win:

• Astro Bot
• Unicorn Overlord
• Balatro
• Metaphor
• Animal Well

I think he's saying this before he gives FF7 GOTY instead of Astro Bot.

Get ready for these sales numbers to dive off a cliff.

I cannot fathom spending this much money for this marginal of a difference.

@Duck_Farmer Oh geez, that is the sickest burn I've heard in a while. 🤣🤣🤣

Nothing hits quite like an empty promise 😌

It's an absolute crime that Unicorn Overlord isn't on this list.

Right... but it's $850...

This is a "Pro" console... Sony can just go right ahead and sit on a tack at this point.

@LogicStrikesAgain Right, but literally only two of these games are exclusive to the PS5, and they'll probably go to PC next year.

At this point, no. I got my PS5 3 years ago and I just cannot recommend it. I have completely stopped buying my games on PlayStation and exclusively purchase games on PC and Switch. Every games that Sony makes goes to PC now, the price has gone up instead of down, and the the lack of portability is the nail in the coffin for me. I just use my PS5 to play my PS4 games when I do turn it on, but the PS5 will be my last Sony console.

If at first you don't succeed, fail again.

I can't wait to play this on the Switch 2.

Each purchase comes with a free dunce cap.

I really enjoyed Spider-Man 2018, but I couldn't bring myself to pick this game up. It all just looked the same to me. I find myself playing more indie games that try something new and experimental rather than AAA games that all start to feel the same.

Remember when PlayStation put out that cheeky YouTube video tutorial on how to share your games with friends? Oh how the times have changed.

@nessisonett All 18 inches, right?

@Deoxyr1bose 1000% agree with you. The PS5 is my last Sony console. At this point, if you have a PC of any kind and Nintendo's next console, you'll be able to play pretty much every game under the sun.

@HotGoomba Hey, we love a corny comment around here.

@HotGoomba I'd use a lot of words to describe God of War, but intelligent isn't one of them. Lonely, emotionally shut off dad verbally abusing his son in the process of learning to show affection while chopping monsters in half isn't what I would call intelligent. It could be awesome, don't get me wrong, but probably not a smart watch.

They're getting pretty desperate...

@JokerBoy322 Oh, there's no going back once you get a Steam Deck 😌

... but it's not $50 off. They raised the price $50, and they removed that pay increase for a week.

What a healthy and open-minded community.

Right, but I refuse to spend $850 to play a last-gen game. Especially when I already played it on the PS4, and it looked great four years ago.

No matter how big this game is, it's going to basically be impossible to meet expectations. This is Avatar. Arguably the greatest TV show of all time with some of the biggest and most devoted fans. The TV show set the bar WAAAAAAAAY too high. Hahaha!

At what point does the "innovation" amount to AAA games even releasing?

If you're dumb enough to donate this, you deserve to have your money stolen. Lolz
