It would be a shame if with the decline of E3 as an event we might lose that time of year where we get exciting first glimpses at several upcoming games in one event/stream. It probably makes more sense to space game info out to best fit the games individually but I miss the excitement E3 used to elicit.

Approaching the hundred hours mark with AC Valhalla with plenty to do still. Also trying the ‘mean’ playthrough of Oxenfree in continuing effort to mop up my backlog.
Then also pondering adding to the backlog with Kingdom Come Deliverence as it’s only £7.50.

Great interview, hope you get to do many more especially with Sony's studios.
I brought Dreams ages ago but have yet to start it. I have a feeling when I do it might become all consuming.

@smythelove Yeah there was nobody in the building for me after moving all the jars. I found a fix where I saved the game while in the building then reloaded that save. When it loaded up the person appeared outside waiting so I just talked to him and it completed.

I'll be happy for any fishing improvements, it really is atrocious.

Funnily enough I knew the ones I have played and not the others 5/10. Except not knowing the first and only knowing the Dead Space one because of Nath from Playstation Access's Platinum stream where it came up.
Gutted I was wrong thinking they were watching Airplane.

Just raided the castle that’s 2 miles down the road from me in AC Valhalla. Enjoyable game but with many minor frustrations. For once the main story is probably the main highlight.

I always enjoy watching/reading about the work that went into making our favourite games. Any features you can manage to do that delve into this would be great. I think a greater understanding and appreciation of the monumental work and effort that goes into game development would be beneficial to all of us.
But keep up the good work, this is the only gaming site I bother to visit anymore.

My most anticipated game. Now if they can just release a PS5 upgrade patch for the original that would be great.

@ApostateMage Spooky me too! People always thought it odd whenever it came up I used to do that. I would lightly sprinkle sugar on top too.

The remaster I'd like most from Rockstar would be RDR1. If they reworked that and tweaked 2 for the PS5 I'd definitely buy them again.

I sure I saw somewhere the makers of The Medium have also patented the 'dual-world' system. If the trend continues I'm not sure it will be good for games.

That's nice but where's my Lego Thunderjaw?

Can't wait

I'd take a Black Cat spin-off game. So far Insomniac is doing an amazing job with the IP and I'm down for whatever they make next.

@KingPev It is a little odd but Rockstar did the same thing with RDR 2 where the Collectors edition of physical goods didn't come with the game (I got that one too). It's more like a set of tie-in items than an edition of the game and as long as they are open and upfront about that I don't mind.

I'd be curious to see the improvements on my Ps5 but don't want to hog up that much of the SSD when I know I probably won't play it much at this point.

Lucy James gives some good detail on the changes in this vid

@LieutenantFatman I got it directly from the Bioware store

https://gear.bioware.com/products/mass-effect-legendary-cache

It might be available elsewhere shortly but I didn't want to miss out. The delivery to UK is a biggy and will have to add tax/customs later but it's worth it to me.

Time to book a week of hol for this one (and then have it delayed). Cannot wait to play this through again. I've just pre-ordered the Legendary Cache.

@Wazeddie22 @Shaun_p I can't say for certain but when I noticed some games appearing twice on my games list I realised they were all games I had played a demo or beta for and I think that is what the seperate entry was for. Don't know if that would explain it for your double entries too?

How about Yellow Brick Games or Archetype Entertainment, both fairly new studios with ex-Bioware staff looking to make games in this genre.

I've never played the originals but only heard good things so I'm curious to see how this turns out.

I imagine they want to be very careful with this one. I personally loved the Resi 3 remake but know many felt it inferior to the original and they don't want to mess with 4's reputation. Strangely it seems like the team that wants to tinker with it more that's going to lead it going forward.
I'd still rather have a Code Veronika remake.

@TheFrenchiestFry good to know, thanks.

It sounds like it might be a better game for me, I grew tired of lengthy turn-based battles near the end of the game and knowing how to make best use of your 'free-time' could be annoying.

@ShogunRok Does this include the new character from Royale or does it ignore/side-step that version?

Yeah I had this problem this morning. Hope they fix it quick.

I was intrigued by the secret beta until I discovered it's multiplayer. Oh well, wait and see I suppose.

@Boxcar182 @TwomanybuttonS Yeah I was surprised it's not on the list. I know it was widely criticised for it's length but I loved it and it would be in my top 5.

Good to see they got the epilepsy problem patched asap.

Can’t vote as I just popped it on in my break to catch the Mass Effect (I’m years away) trailer and the final award. Pretty sure that was Liara in the teaser so very curious where they will go with it. Now to look up the Dragon Age bit and anything else I missed.

I'll be working while it's on so I'll check in here on my break and see what's been shown. I'm keeping my expectations low but would love to wrong.
Also Disney is revealing more on it's future projects tomorrow apparently so it might be a very good day for reveals all round.

@PhazedOut187 Good to know, thanks 👍

I don't want to look at the list incase of spoilers but if anyone has, is there a 'Deathmarch' equivalent trophy?

Just realised this a different ad to one I just saw.

Quite surprised by Project Athia being a 2 year timed exclusive. Don't normally see that long.

Not sure how co-ordinates for one game map gives you a comparable scale to a different game map. I'm not convinced this will be accurate. If CD Projekt say it's slightly smaller than the land mass of The Witcher 3 I don't see why they would lie or be wrong.

Edit: Having seen the comments to the video he has made an assumption that the co-ordinates convert 1:1 to a value in metres just because it gives a plausible result. Game engine figures could convert to any random real world distance.

Finally putting some quality time into Miles Morales. Really digging his repertoire of swinging moves and snowy NY. Hopefully I can get it finished at least story wise before Friday when it will be time to hit Night City.

check out the third reply to the tweet and who made it. It's not going to be one of those dev/concept videos.

They are going to add in the sword and shield in a later patch.

I did the opposite and used every bullet I had. I literally killed the final freaker with the last bullet remaining in both my weapons.

Can't vote yet as I'm doing a replay with the Spider-man Remaster before starting MM. Astrobot was really fun and an excellent demonstration of the Dualsense. I'm sure they all great but not sure which will be my favourite yet.

Some of the time I was just happy to make it to the end of the course regardless of time. Got them low enough for the 7 minute trophy and that will do me.

It seems the incident you watch from the car involves the chap from the teaser trailer years ago!

Looks fine. Although maybe they can get Jackie to actually turn the steering wheel when he turns a corner. Minor detail but sticks out.
Super excited to play it though, roll on Dec 10.

Time for an update patch switching to Zaltan Ibrohimabit and Gerald Ball.

I'm playing the remaster from scratch to check out the upgrades, get used to new Pete and refamiliarise myself with the story; So I'll be playing the whole thing regardless. But if I download my completed PS4 original save to my PS5 it will just pop all the trophies again and hand me another Plat? Seems cheeky but it's not a tricky platinum so I'll do it all again anyway.

Even though it's fake, it's surprising to me that a remaster of the first with the engine of the second isn't a reality. So much of the needed work is already there in the prequel and going by reactions to stuff like this it would sell well. Come on Rockstar
