I think it's a no brainer that AI at some point may be used and I'll be very surprised if the games business will be barred from using it according to laws, but who knows.
This new GTA game (if it's called GTA 6 or something else) will probably bee current gen only. And the brand is so strong that it will boost console sales and maybe get bundled with the PS5.
@BAMozzy That is a wise decision. Holy cra* I was fooled by the review. If anyone is calling Death Stranding a walking simulation, then what is AW2...?
I am shocked by this game. It's slow, disorienting, little to no gameplay for long periods of time, a lot of tiresome 'mind place' drivel which is unneccessary and breaks the pace (if there is any) and I could go on. I genuinely don't understand the high rating. I would say this is a 5 or 6, maybe 7 at best.
I've played 'em all since 2003, but I think I've reached the end. The fun isn't there anymore. It's all become so incredibly complicated in all respects... It's just sad.
I was not sure about buying this game, which looked like a movie in the trailers. But it is a damn good looking game and fun swinging around the city.
But the story is a slog at times, and the movement while walking around as Peter or Miles is extremely slow. Also a lot of the missions and side quests is actually quite childish. I've had most fun with doing the collectible stuff
I've visited NY City in RL, so it's a joy revisiting the city in such a scale and detail in this game though.
@NinjaNicky "do people really spend $90 to get a few skins and dances?"
If you don't know the answer to this I'll inform you that it's a big fat YES.
And everyone can 'waste' their money as they see fit I guess. Also, this is what makes this game free to play for those of us who only plays it with the default skins and only pay for the beer or soda we drink when playing ...
Both disappointing and surprising tbh. I hope he'll resurface somewhere else as I think he has contributed to interesting games and he's a skilled artist actually.
@Blacksmith1985 Yeah, I agree. I miss the PS3 era in that respect. In the times we are living now with inflation on everything, I think Sony should've done things different. Maybe Essensial should be almost free, just contain multiplayer access and add cloud save and free games to the two teers above or something like that.
@Shepherd_Tallon @LifeGirl Also, the PS2 arrived at a time when the DVD format was new and many opted for the console also to play movies on it at the time.
I've still got my PS3, the game and both my sanity and integrity, so that's a fat NO! This is just shameless and should just be burried instead of written about IMO.
I’m actually numb. Is this for real …?! Three years into the PS5 life and they port ps3 games to ps4…? At this point I fear GTA6 will release on Ps4 :-/
@Arnna I'm with you. I'll probably play these games through when they hit PS+ one day. And I've been a Spiderman fan since I grew up with the comics in the 70's and 80's. The games just don't click with me.
Also, the game is getting awfully crowded, there are so many (presumably) playable characters now. I guess the female spider will be introduced in the 3rd installment...
@get2sammyb That may be, but I almost(if not totally) forgot this is supposed to be a game when I saw the trailer and it felt like a movie trailer. And I'm dead serious.
@Exerion76 Naturally the movie script will be condensed and focus on vital deliveries, plot points and the characters involded. I doubt the movie producers will go for 'the platinum' and show 300+ deliveries alone on foot, bike or zip lines etc.
@pushsquare That was not trolling! I was actually referring to the comments Sammy thought was terrible. Give me a break please. Its getting hard staying loyal on this site.

I'm interested for sure. But we'll see how it pans out first.
Re: An Amazing Number of Players Have Marvel's Spider-Man 2's Platinum Trophy
@Gunnerzaurus Totally agree with this.
Re: An Amazing Number of Players Have Marvel's Spider-Man 2's Platinum Trophy
A shameful boring game story wise, so getting the Plat was the only meaningful thing to do and it was almost too simple to get it.

But who knows, this is just my 2 cents.

@Tchunga spot on, I’m also experiencing all these things. Baffled…
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Alan Wake 2?
@LIMA Agreed 100%
Re: The Invincible (PS5) - Hard Sci-Fi Adventure Tells a Good Story
Hm, I was interested in this, but it sounds just like Alan Wake 2 gameplay wise, and got the score both games should have, so I'll skip this I guess.
Re: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Really Is Just DLC, Says Its Trophy List
@Enigk Yeah, I thought the same. How is this a good practice? I for one can't have multiple installs of these games.

I've never participated in the WAYP I'll be mopping up the rest of Spider man 2 and start my AW2 rider after dark this pre Halloween weekend.

@GamingFan4Lyf "Call of Duty needs to go on a hiatus. Give these developers something new to work on."
This is business, you know that right? And I'm sure the share holders don't agree with with you.
Though I don't say you are wrong, it's just not happening, at least for the forseeable future I'm afraid.
