I believe them. Because currently they are trying to focus on current sales. How about some promises we would be offered an upgrade for free should their plans change in weeks/months time
I'm happy the next game won't be Part 3. I'm just tired of the series now so I want to see something new. The remake and the remasters played a part in making me tired of it.
While I did enjoy Part 2, it left me feeling it didn't need to be made, it's not the same without Joel and I just want something new now so I'm not interested in a Part 3 anymore. Maybe trailers will win me over but I'd rather see something fresh and new.
I hope so! Would be amazing to play PS4 and PS5 games on the go properly. Would be nice if it could have Vita features too so we could play our Vita games.
I still buy physical and always will as long as they exist but I'm going to cut down more on how many i buy. I can't see myself buying digital anymore but I wouldn't rule it out entirely.
When I look at my collection I think to myself that is a LOT of games I won't go back to. Most of them will just sit there unplayed again. And if I spent that much on those games brand new, imagine being stuck with them in digital while paying more.
Since the price went up this gen, I've already been cutting down on how many games I've been buying and now I only see myself buying the best of the best while I wait for others to go on sale. But some games like Avatar have opened my eyes to say I'm making the same mistake and need to cut back on more. That is a game I should be waiting to enter PS+ instead.
Should a digital only future happen then I see myself just waiting for the games to go onto PS+ as I'd rather play it on that service than to buy digital. Sometimes I think about trading in a lot of my games that I won't go back to, like that Avatar. One thing that stops me is that I did that with every PS3 game when the PS4 came out and then regretted it so I rebought the games i want to replay. My PS4 collection is too big and I don't want to grow the PS5 library in the same way.
Travelling should be fun, fun enough for the player to feel they don't need or want to fast travel. But fast travel should always be included.
People have different reasons for needing or wanting that. Especially trophy hunters. Travelling won't be fun for everyone even if it was the best designed travelling ever made. Burnout and bordom is a thing too
Very Atlus thing to do. And that's why I'm happy to not buy this game until much much much later. Will play it when it drops price to dirt cheap, goes onto PS+ or they make a better version later on. Don't have the time for it anyway and Final Fantasy is getting my money instead.
I do miss his old ways but I also love that he's matured now. They can still make games of his younger self again to bring it back. Can't be an angry man forever unless the next game has him being tricked into killing Atreus
Maybe they shouldn't have cancelled at all but instead just freeze it until Sony could get/build a studio to take over to support it after ND had finished their job. Shame they didn't just make it a normal multiplayer game
Good move! Single player is where most of Sonys studios shine best and to be stuck supporting a live service game rather than pushing on making new games would really suck.
Little sad that we won't get the multiplayer at all but the push for live service is the problem. A normal multiplayer would have been fine. Live service would have meant no more big campaign games for a long time (if they didn't go on to make another).
Bungie shouldn't even have a say in anything, just lay out guidelines but that's it. I think it's better to just leave the live service stuff to them and let ND aswell as their other first party studios to keep doing what they do best
I think it will come eventually but EG will keep passing the game to another studio until they find one suitable or Disney is trying to end their agreement so they can pass it onto another themselves.
It used to be amazing and felt like a second Christmas. Then it got stale. When Sony left, it was pretty much dead already. Was already dying before then
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth is the only one that hits my list the most. Someday I'd get Persona 3 but not buying day 1. Lost Soul Aside and Star Wars Outlaws have my interest too
Personally I think the game is too far away and that Xbox hasn't locked it down yet. It may be made by an Xbox studio but it's not their IP. Marvel could be wanting it on PS too for that money.
I think that if MS was to have it locked down, then they may have to pay more to keep it exclusive to make up for the loss of PS sales or re-negotiate for it. Just because Spider-Man is exclusive to PS, it doesn't mean Blade will be exclusive to Xbox. Depends on the agreement they make
Them developers are just easily triggered and clearly lack some sense of humour so their tweets just came off as immature children that think their better than everyone else. #WhySoSerious
Great show with plenty of games to look forward to. Except for MS, they haven't shown a single thing of interest for me. Out of all the Marvel IPs they could have chosen, their studio is working on one I don't care for. Never liked that studio anyway so it makes sense they would pick something I'm not a fan of.
Don't think I'll be upgrading. I enjoyed the game but didn't love it. It's not a game I would be rushing back to for another play but I'd always go back to Part 1.
I really hate roguelike games and for that reason I can't get into Returnal so the No Return is useless to me. The only thing that attracts me is the Lost Levels and Dualsense features. Think I'll just hold out for PS+ as it's not wothy of a £10 upgade for me
Not interested. I'm tired of TLoU now. Part 1 was a masterpiece imo. I did enjoy Part 2 and I understand the direction they wanted to take it into but the way the story went left me feeling that's it, time to move on.
It absolutely is, just not on it's own. Helps to sell more consoles, more games, PS+ Premimum (if cloud kicks off) and boost the sales in Japan.
I like to think that they created this device to test the demand for another handheld. All hope for one seemed lost after the Vita. Really hope they consider adding an SD slot in a newer model should the cloud streaming become a thing and let us download games
After the way they treated Royal for PS5 I'm happy enough not buying their games day 1 anymore. Will wait until the game is dirt cheap and when that little dlc goes on sale. That is if they don't create a complete edition later down the road. Chances are the game may end up on PS+ before I get round to buying
Love the console and even more so for the controller. The only bad thing I would say about it is the games. I love the games but the games makes it feel like we're still in the PS4 days and some of them PS3 days. I'd like to see some unique games that makes the PS5 itself stand out that when we look back at it someday, it has a reason to stand out to be the better console than the ones before it.
I had one pre-ordered just to have it secured but then cancelled it as it's not for me. Going to wait and see how it is before deciding to get one later on or not if Sony makes an OLED.
It looks like it could have made the perfect proper handheld for Sony or even be made into their own Switch. Had it been one of those then I'd have bought it in a heartbeat.
I still buy all my games physical. I don't buy digital much anymore. Haven't bought one in ages now and I can't see myself doing it if physical was to end. Maybe buy the odd game now and again but I'd rather play the games from subscription than to buy digital. Games that release digital but not physical are the ones I skip. Will only play them when they enter PS+ or get a physical release.
Spider-Man 2 has been incredible so I played it for hours and hours but so far I'm not fully feeling Mario Wonder yet and I find I can only play it in small amounts. Had the same problem with Yoshi's Woolly World too.
Haven't gotten far into it yet but I think I'm past 2D mario games now. Too many of those games feel too samely, just diffeent character. My mind might change as I play more but I've moved on from the 2D games and I prefer Mario as 3D. Sonic is one of those games I can take as both, but favour as 3D. For 2D Mario, Super Mario World is unbeatable!
Can see why they added the wingsuit! Who wants to clean up all that web
But seriously, congrats to the developers! They made something really incredible and I can't wait to see what they do next. Already finished the game and got the plat so I'm waiting for NG+ to play again.
One of the open world things that uses the wingsuit makes me want to see insomniac games creating an Iron Man, Thor and Superman game. They are the only developers I'd trust that could do an amazing job with them
Not every game needs to be a big open world filled with so much filler. I'd take a decent length game with great quality over that. Will always come back for another playtrhough but a game like AC Valhalla will never be played again. As much as I loved Skyrim, I couldn't bring myself to go back to that a second time after sinking so many hours in
Would love to see one! Just hope it doesn't affect their other projects as I'd really like for them to keep making Ratchet and Clank and maybe go back to making Resistance again. At the same time, I'd like more Spider-Man games too
It's good it's finally over and hopefully this pushes Sony to be and do better to stay on top and bring us great new PS games. Xbox never creates anything that makes the platform stand out. Most of their games were created by third party until they threw money at it to acquire and milk them and now they have made themselves look even more third party than ever.
At least some fans are happy to get games they have already been getting handed out to them on a service. Really weird to see them preferring that over seeing MS making a name for themselves with unique Xbox games.
Anyway, no need to buy their games anymore. Take out a month of GP, binge a few games and it saves money for other games. That's my plan.
They should let their developers create what they want to create. Expand on them more to bring back Killzone and Resistance for some shooters. They made great games with those before. Bungie can offer guidance and tips to improve them and keep the games fresh but they shouldn’t be deciding anything. They can’t even manage their own game very well. Games should be friendly and welcoming to new players aswell as returning ones.
Naughty Dog did some great co-op with Uncharted. Multiplayer was fun too. I feel listening too much to Bungie can do more harm than good. May aswell just give them the whole project to mess it up themselves rather than taint the original developers name with a mixed game
I still can't believe Sony didn't acquire the studio and the IP. I always seen Lara as a PS icon when I played tomb Raider for the first time long ago. I said it before but they would have been perfect to have continued the Uncharted series too while trying to keep both games different. Having Some cross overs between both games would have been amazing. Sony invest well into their studios and this one could have grown to expand rather than seeing lay offs.
Maybe wait until the DLC is on sale. Lost interest to make this game a need/want to play long ago now so I don't have that excitment anymore. I have a big collection of other games that have higher priority. The state this games launched in and the length of time it took to get where it is now made me move on
Sorry backlog, many of you are about to get lost in a bigger pile. I may forget you, I may not find you but just know that one day, just someday, I may get to play you
The "good move for both companies" made me LOL. It would only be amazing for themselves. If Sony and Nintendo was to go out of business tomorrow it would be an unbearable loss to gaming. If Xbox was to go out of business then nothing of value would be lost that we wouldn't get anyway.
Nooooo! That can't be true!!! Phil said they want to allow players to play their games anywhere. He wouldn't take this away from PlayStation, right? Right?... Hellooo??
