With COD going team green I'd have to assume Sony is going to put extra effort into maintaining the marketing rights for this other moneymaker. EA is probably going to advertise overtime as well to ensure everyone knows of the brand change.
I just really don’t see really why Sony would. Last generation was the first time this has happened and was due to unique circumstances that don’t exist now. Hardware is made with razor thin margins to make money from the software. I don’t recall the pro being hugely successful anyway.
Playstation Access are going to be playing this tomorrow on their stream and inviting people to send them levels to try and beat. I'll probably watch to see what it's like but can't imagine it's something I'll play at the moment.
@AJP49ers If she hasn't already done her work for the DLC I would hope she doesn't allow these emotionally stunted idiots to influence her. I personally think she did exactly what she was directed to do and sound cold, cynical and detached. Like I said, I look to forward to playing her DLC if it comes.
I had to check online when I first heard the voice as I thought it sounded different to what I remembered from RE2 Remake. I thought it a shame it has changed so soon from a continuity standpoint but very quickly disregarded it. If the rumoured Ada dlc is true I’ll be getting it day one.
Needless to say this kind of behaviour is repugnant.
I'm not surprised about not seeing stuff until very late with Sony (and don't really have a problem with it) but I find it a bit odd it's not in the PS Store yet.
Mafia is just the type of game I look for in the plus monthly games. Something I’m curious to try but not quite enough to buy it.
If I get at least 2 or 3 of those a year I’m good with that. There has been many games I’ve ended up enjoying that I otherwise would never have played.
@InvaderJim I got it downloaded last night so I've had a quick go. EA and it's terms and conditions though, I wasn't sure if I was starting a game or asking for a bank loan.
I’ll mostly be playing A Plague Tale Requiem but just about to give the free trial of F1 22 a go. I’ll see what sort of time I can achieve in Austin before the real thing later today.
I like playing a short, chill game every now and then and gave this a go as it is a PS+ game. Completed it over a couple of days and really enjoyed it. I will jump back in for this.
I was thinking about finally getting around to starting it soon so will see what's new.
Assuming the third series of The Witcher releases in December like the first 2, I think they are probably planning on revealing/releasing the PS5 update then.
I played the first as it was one of the free PS+ games. Got into it so much I got the platinum. Will be up for throwing them some money for this. Great game for when you only have 15-30 minutes to mess around with.
It's strange, I love X-Com, I really enjoyed the card game based Thronebreaker (Gwent) and I like a lot of Marvel stuff but I just have very little enthusiasm for this. I will have to keep an eye on the reviews or see if they do a demo to maybe raise my interest.
I’ve only seen the first episode so far and wasn’t exactly engaged with it. The scene in the headmaster’s office was about the only time I was engrossed by it. I’ll probably see where it goes at some point but I don’t feel any strong desire to carry on with it at the moment.
@LiamCroft Yeah, I was only messing around. Whilst I don't doubt there are some in the company that don't like stuff leaking they're not going to change plans because of it. Everyone was just assuming today from the 30 anyway.
I'm going to need the collectibles guide. I did a collectible run-through before but somehow came up a couple short and if I remember correctly the game doesn't say which.
I already had RE3R installed so had a look. A compilation icon appears with a box for PS5 upgrade but when I select it the options then are 'play' and 'view PS5 version' but selecting the later just takes you to the game page. Guess not quite up yet.
I was really excited when I heard it was from the XCOM developers. Then I heard it's card based and my enthusiasm waned. I'll keep an eye on it though.

Re: Resident Evil 4 Fans Aren't Exactly Thrilled with Microtransactions on PS5, PS4
I don't see the fuss. Does it in any way affect how a person can play the game if they ignore them?

Re: Random: Sony Shoehorns PS5 Ad into Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse Trailer
Seems smart as I'm sure the trailer will get a ton of views. The film is certainly looking very promising.

Re: Poll: Which PS5, PS4 Games Are You Most Looking Forward to in April 2023?
Burning Shores pre-ordered the moment it went live.
I'm going to wait on reviews for Jedi, if it doesn't improve a lot of stuff from the original I'll wait for price drop on that.

Re: XCOM with Xenomorphs? Aliens: Dark Descent Tiptoes to PS5, PS4 on 20th June
That looks very promising. I'm going to have to keep an eye on this one.
Re: Talking Point: Is 2024 Too Soon for PS5 Pro?
I’m just curious why some of the people who don’t think there will be a PS5 Pro (like me) have chosen a year for the non-existent console to launch?
Re: Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores Is Out Soon on PS5, and We've Seen Next to Nothing
I'm not surprised about not seeing stuff until very late with Sony (and don't really have a problem with it) but I find it a bit odd it's not in the PS Store yet.
Re: Tennis World Tour 2 Dev Returns to the Court with Tiebreak for PS5, PS4
Can't we just get the developers back for Top Spin 5? I'd even take a remaster of Top Spin 4 at this point.
Re: RoboCop: Rogue City Could Be the RoboCop Game We've Always Wanted
Sounds like it needs some work on the voice and the distinct sound of his gun. If it's of a similar standard to Terminator it will be worth a play.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for February 2023?
Mafia is just the type of game I look for in the plus monthly games. Something I’m curious to try but not quite enough to buy it.
If I get at least 2 or 3 of those a year I’m good with that. There has been many games I’ve ended up enjoying that I otherwise would never have played.
Re: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition (PS5) - The Perfect Excuse to Replay a Masterpiece
Time to make some space in my gaming schedule to get a second platinum on one of my all time favourite games.
Re: Next Mass Effect Gets a Tiny Teaser for N7 Day
It even has MR on it, you know, for Mass Relay.

Re: God of War Ragnarok on PS5 Runs at Up to 120fps, Four Graphics Modes
This is made me realise I’m not sure if my tv is 2.1 or not. I will have to check.
Great set of options.
Re: Resident Evil 4 Remake Gets Second Trailer Focused on Story, Featuring Some Familiar Faces
Definitely looking forward to the Resident Evil 4 Remake. I didn’t realise they were remaking 2 again (might want to edit that penultimate sentence).
Re: F1 22 Is Free to Play During US Grand Prix Weekend on PS5, PS4
I'm a fan of the sport but haven't played the game in years. I've pondered getting it a few times, so I'll certainly give a free try.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 448
I don't want to start anything new with A Plague Tale Requiem days away so I might go back and try for some trophy runs of RE2 or RE3.
Re: PS Studios Malaysia Working on Top Secret PS5 Games
I don't get why everyone is discussing remakes in an article about an expanding studio that can help create art assets for other Playstation Studio?
Re: Amicia Displays Her Deadly Crossbow Skills in A Plague Tale: Requiem's Latest Trailer
Just replaying it again on PS5 this time. I look forward to seeing where they take it with the sequel.
Re: These Could Be All the Atari Anniversary Collection Games on PS5, PS4
I still have my Atari Lynx tucked away somewhere. I didn't buy it, I won it off the Big Breakfast.
Re: PS Plus Game Toem Gets New Region for Free, Coming Soon
I like playing a short, chill game every now and then and gave this a go as it is a PS+ game. Completed it over a couple of days and really enjoyed it. I will jump back in for this.
Re: Assassin's Creed Mirage Sneaks to PS5, PS4 in 2023, Priced at $50
I'm at least optimistic it will be a solid return to the series' roots but time will tell.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 News Incoming as CDPR Announces Night City Wire Broadcast
I was thinking about finally getting around to starting it soon so will see what's new.

Re: Arcade Racer Sequel Horizon Chase 2 Speeds to Consoles in 2023
I played the first as it was one of the free PS+ games. Got into it so much I got the platinum. Will be up for throwing them some money for this.
Great game for when you only have 15-30 minutes to mess around with.
Re: Blistering Barnacles! Embark on a New Adventure in Tintin Reporter: Cigars of the Pharoah
I hope it turns out good. Maybe it can drum up enough interest for Spielberg to do another film, I thought it was a lot of fun.
Re: Captain Marvel's Playstyle Is Geared Towards Punishing Counters in Marvel's Midnight Suns
It's strange, I love X-Com, I really enjoyed the card game based Thronebreaker (Gwent) and I like a lot of Marvel stuff but I just have very little enthusiasm for this.
I will have to keep an eye on the reviews or see if they do a demo to maybe raise my interest.
Re: Poll: Did You Ever Use PS5 Accolades?
The very few I gave out and received were all for Wreckfest. Judging by the comments was it only dangerous drivers giving them out?
Re: First Impressions: Resident Evil Netflix Deviates from the Games But Still Entertains
I’ve only seen the first episode so far and wasn’t exactly engaged with it. The scene in the headmaster’s office was about the only time I was engrossed by it. I’ll probably see where it goes at some point but I don’t feel any strong desire to carry on with it at the moment.
Re: Shots Fired in First RoboCop: Rogue City PS5 Gameplay Trailer
I hope I get to say this next June.

Re: Find Out if The Lord of the Rings: Gollum Is Preciousss from 1st September on PS5, PS4
There's a reason it's untold methinks. You never know it might end up fun but it doesn't look that appealing to me.
At least the upcoming TV series might be good.
Re: Try Not to Cringe At This Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown PS5, PS4 Trailer
How can be a racing game trailer be cringe I thought? It turns out Sammy is very accurate indeed.
Re: Open World, Survival Terminator Game Will Be Back
I'd never heard of Nacon Studio Milan so did a quick google and it seems they've only made a motor-bike racing game. Still you got to start somewhere.
Re: Shots Fired in First RoboCop: Rogue City PS5 Gameplay Trailer
I wonder if you'll find baby food in the levels to restore your health?
Re: Shots Fired in First RoboCop: Rogue City PS5 Gameplay Trailer
Looks like they have a pretty cool looking Murphy/Robocop ....for cutscenes. Shame it's a FPS but I'll keep an eye out on it to see how it turns out.
Re: God of War Ragnarok's PS5, PS4 Release Date Reveal Was Delayed from Today
@LiamCroft Yeah, I was only messing around. Whilst I don't doubt there are some in the company that don't like stuff leaking they're not going to change plans because of it.
Everyone was just assuming today from the 30 anyway.
Re: God of War Ragnarok's PS5, PS4 Release Date Reveal Was Delayed from Today
Maybe they moved it a day to make the Snitch wrong.
Re: Resident Evil 2 (PS5) - A Cheap and Fairly Cheerful Upgrade
@CyberWolf Yes. When you put the disc in there will be an option to download the PS5 version. You will still have to have the disc in to play though.
Re: Resident Evil 3 Walkthrough: Tips, Tricks, and All Collectibles
I'm going to need the collectibles guide. I did a collectible run-through before but somehow came up a couple short and if I remember correctly the game doesn't say which.
Re: Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7 PS5 Versions Available to Download Now
Just rebooted my PS5 and it's working now
Re: Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7 PS5 Versions Available to Download Now
I already had RE3R installed so had a look. A compilation icon appears with a box for PS5 upgrade but when I select it the options then are 'play' and 'view PS5 version' but selecting the later just takes you to the game page. Guess not quite up yet.
Re: Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7 PS5 Versions Available to Download Now
Was planning some more playthroughs of 2&3 Remakes for trophies anyway so can do it with the upgrades now. Probably 7 too.
Re: A Plague Tale: Requiem Still Set for 2022 in New Trailer
Looking forward to this but a little surprised by no date.
Re: Poll: Was Summer Game Fest Live a Show to Remember?
It was pretty much exactly as expected.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077's Edgerunners Anime Actually Looks Awesome in Teaser Trailer
I'll certainly check it out in September, it looks impressive. I wonder if they will try and get the DLC ready for when this is on.
Re: XCOM Inspired Superhero Game Marvel's Midnight Suns Brightens Summer Game Fast
I was really excited when I heard it was from the XCOM developers. Then I heard it's card based and my enthusiasm waned. I'll keep an eye on it though.
