I’ve bought every title since the beginning in 2003. But I’ve dropped out this year. After being disappointed several years in a row now. It’s just not the game I used to love playing anymore. Sad times.
Give me a remake of the Resistance fall of man games exclusive for ps6 and I may consider contemplating getting one. Else I’ll stick to plying remastered ps4 titles on the ps5 for another decade … or more
@LiamCroft Hi, nice review. I loved DS1and eagerly awaiting DS2. Only gripes I had with the first, was the clumsy menus and map. Are there any improvements in this aspect?
Nah, I tried the demo. It didn’t click with me. Hated the forging of weapons. And the combat was a bit naff and annoying compared to other titles. But that’s just my opinion.
@matekomlosi clever... however, when a physical copy is being sold, it would be nice to be able to run the game without the need to download anything. Why even sell it physical if not?
As your example, when taking a taxi, it's nice not to have to wait for the car to be assembled before you can get the ride home, yeah ...?
All the above and I fear the "GTA+" to be able to do and access this and that and maybe a shorter single player than normal and I'm also curious as to what the online mode will be like. That mode alone should hopefully have been improved A LOT. And so, we'll see if it's the online mode that got the more love or the whole package.
@get2sammyb Exactly. It seems a lot more grounded to me. So much so that I'm wondering if it's less sarcasm and a much more serious tone this time around. I don't know, it's definitely different than prevous GTA's
I upgraded from ps5 to ps5 pro this Easter, all because of the above mentioned in the article. I bought the disc drive last november, just to be ready.
COD BlackOps 4, really? A lack luster title from 2018 and probably unplayable for the most part(most modes) in 2025. The game also didn't have a single player campaign either ... This should be free at worst, thrown out at best.
I can see this being a thing in the future, where you for example play games like Uncharted and you can talk to your in game companion, give orders and make them do stuff etc.
@Jireland92 The fact they've made a sequel, says it all, no?
I've never liked any other Kojima games, but fell in love with DS, and I think this could be the same for many gamers. You can just walk around and soak up the secenery while listening to music if you want. Or do missions, combat, build stuff and interact with other player. It's pure magic IMO.
Isn't it almost always the case to skip pvp online (and servers for this) when remastering old titles? And in this case the titles is beeing remastered for PS from MS, not surprising at all.
Visually stunning game, great atmosphere. Sadly too short, too much cut scenes etc. But I enjoyed it and it was an easy Platinum trophy to put on my digital shelf.

Re: You Can Still Claim This Free PS5 Game in PS Store Cock Up
@Northern_munkey I'm Essential and grabbed it yesterday as I mentioned above.
Re: You Can Still Claim This Free PS5 Game in PS Store Cock Up
I wouldn't be surprised if this has been added as some form of sugar on the essential pill earlier this week which had only one ps5 game?
Re: You Can Still Claim This Free PS5 Game in PS Store Cock Up

Re: Black Ops 7 Will Be the 'Most Mind-Bending' Call of Duty Ever on PS5, PS4

Re: Blades of Fire (PS5) - Steely Action with Blunt Art and Storytelling

Re: Space Marine 2 Dev Addresses 'Cold Feedback' to Community Events, Cosmetic Items
@Tyrii It's a slog of a game IMO. I pushed through the story, then deleted it. To slow, dark, clunky and samey all the way through.
