Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart?

Ben7982

Great game with stunning visual,no load times and a strong gameplay loop with excellent pacing that always made me say "just one more section" to myself at 2:00am in the morning. The only criticism I could give was for the money £70 it was a little on the shorter side only taking me 19 hours to platinum. Think the game could of perhaps done with 1 more planet to take it up to the 20 hour pluse mark to platinum. I would give it a 9/10, 100% recommend even at the full £70.

Re: Last Days of Play Challenge Finished, Unlocking Free PS4 Dynamic Theme

Ben7982

I understand the whole thing they went for with the individual back ground for each game on the ps5 but it makes your console feel so un-personal. Perhaps they could keep the current system of each game having its own background but maybe let us change the background of each game so we can ever have themes back or say have the standard background for most games but say have a screenshot from a moment on one game.e.g a screenshot of a boss you defeated that appears when selecting spider man.

Re: Feature: What Discord Integration Could Mean for PS5, PS4

Ben7982

Definitely think this is a smart move for sony with cross play becoming a standard in today's gaming. console players needs a way to communicate with people on pc and xbox without using awful game chat. Just hope sony integrate it so we can balance game and chat volume like in ps partys.

@nessisonett I think it's less the matter of games are harder to develop on the ps5 but more the fact developers have to optimise games for 2 new console (ps5 and series x) and when it comes to crunch time developers will put more effort into making sure the game runs well on the platforms that most people will play on (last gen consoles). I would have to imagine once developers drop last gen consoles support we should see more ambitious things on new gen.

Re: Soapbox: How I Would Handle The Last of Us Factions

@Coltaine22 putting it on xbox is not stupid. The amount of time and money sony have probably put into this multi player last of us mode they will want people to stick around for long term to make more money and the one key aspect of a multi player title is playing with you friends with many big games like cod having cross play many people play with others on many different platforms. So why would you choice to stick around with a game that you can't play with half your freinds. Where as if this last of us 2 multi player is on all platforms it encourages people to stick around making the game a long term success not just a short term.

Re: Soapbox: How I Would Handle The Last of Us Factions

I think for this game to have a bigger more long term audience it needs to be on pc and xbox this would allow the player base to be bigger and can make financial sense as it introduces people to the last of us 2 world which could lead to some console sales.

Re: Soapbox: There's a Nintendo Direct Today, But I Wish We Had a State of Play to Look Forward To

Ben7982

@Dezzy70 A couple of realise dates is not a good job we actually need more gameplay and promotions for these games. You are correct in terms that there doing better than other companies but why should we settle for the best of the worst. Coming from a long term Sony fan people are giving Sony to much credit for very little news (e.g realise dates) which can end up changing anyway.

Re: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Is Another £70 / $70 PS5 Game from Sony

Ben7982

I think the probably in the UK is games are normally £50 and Sony had decided to jump an extra £20 to match the US price whereas I think if they just raised by £10 to £60 then people wouldn't be moaning as much. Take sackboy for example, some people moaned about the £60 price tag but many were okay with it and with a big AAA game like ratchet and clank if think people would be okay with a £60 price tag. Overall I think £70 price tag will hurt many new Sony IP like returnals but big existing IP, i think will do okay with new price tag as people will still pay the premium as they know what there getting themselves into.

Re: Ghost of Tsushima a 'Commercial Delight' Beyond Sony's Expectations

Ben7982

Great game, well put together and deserves all the praise it can get. The only problem i had with it was the open world got a bit boring and repetitive after the first section. And if you collect everything at the begging by the time you get to act two there is not point to do anything as you have all the upgrades you need.

Re: Site News: We Have a PS5

Ben7982

@shonenjump86 just to let you know ratchet and clank is not a lunch title they said it will come out in launch window so will probably be some point before April.

Re: Fans Are Trying to Figure Out if PS5 Has Quick Resume

Ben7982

Quick Resume would be an nice feature to have only need it between 2 or 3 games like know one needs there whole library open at once but if its not a feature on the ps5 it's not a deal breaker as destruction all start took 8 seconds to boot from a cold state so its not like you will be waiting long to get into the action.

Re: PS5 Revives One of PlayStation's Iconic Bugs

Ben7982

I mean if its not an Easter egg it doesn't really matter if it is just on boot up like not seeing the clock for 5-10 seconds doesn't really matter but if this happens every time you hit the ps button then we have a problem.

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of the PS5 UI?

Ben7982

Love the ui just thing the whole new creation button they went on about is a bit pointless it seems like the existing system on ps4. But we are yet to see there might be more features coming when you hold it down.

Re: The Pathless Ruled Out as PS5's First Free PS Plus Game

Ben7982

I think for at least the first year of ps pluse we will only see the 2 ps4 titles each month witch will be backwards compatible with the ps5. And then after the first year as more ps5 exclusive will have launched through the first year. we might see 2 ps4 games and 1 ps5 game (will most likely be indi title) after year one, but I think it will take a good year and a half to 2 years before we see ps5 exclusive being the main title of ps pluse and ps4 games will start becoming less frequent.

Re: The Last of Us 2 Multiplayer Will Be Worth the Wait, Says Neil Druckmann

Ben7982

@Noob_Saibot my bad I though you meant the new last of us (should of read properly 🤦‍♂️) yea the first last of us could definitely do 120fps at 4k (might be 1800p upscaled) do not thing it will do ray tracing as putting feature like ray tracing in takes some time and I do not think sony will bother with a game that old especially as the sequel is out.

Re: Soapbox: Screw Sony's PS5 Game Pricing, I'll Just Wait for Sales

Ben7982

I went in to this generation expecting games to go from £50-£60 and I was willing to pay this because I realise game prices have not gone up in recent years but paying £70 for a game is just unreasonable and looking at prices for next gen games from game it seems the industry is in disagreement on what to price there games at I just hope other people don't follow sony at £70 and the industry setteles down at £60.
