Resident evil 4 saved the SOP to be a complete disaster.

I just hope this game fails so hard that developers will never do these uninspired licenced abominations anymore.

This one was really bad.

Well deserved. One of the best games ever created.

@solidox Thank you, I'll try this in my next time in the game. It is a weird choice indeed and I have no idea of this "exploit". For me, developers just have to include a "save" option, it is much more elegant.

@MonkeyDLuffy19 Playing through each biome is easy indeed; however, for me the design of the bosses is annoying and sometimes unfair. Bosses are not that difficult either, but the loosing the character progress if you die is rather frustating. That's why the game feels difficult for me, I have any problem with soulslike games for instance, because we do not loose the character, so, a few tries and you can beat the bosses (in fact the areas in souls games are much harder than those of returnal). The way I play returnal is passing the entire biome AND beat the boss without dying, saving the progress between biomes (but, it is possible to save one time in those machines that I can't recall the name). The game feels difficult for me because of loosing the progress and it is really annoying for some people (but It does not bother me that much). I do not know how many times I died, but I believe that it was much more than 30 times lol.

I really love Black Sabbath but, what the heck has Ozzy to do with videogames? This is Sony spending money in bad advertisement again, paying celebs to talk about things they don't care to get some casual players.

This is a great game, but not for everyone. It is difficult and because you can not save the progress anytime, only rogue like fans will really appreciate the experience. This is by far the most difficult game in PS5 in my opinion (and I love it). Thus, it is a niche game and a smaller number of players is expected.

This guy playing the moralist and honest businessman and making Sony seems like a villain, while he is being investigated by several disgusting conduct in the work environment himself. This is ridiculous.

Sony should focus in what they do best: single player story-driven games. Most Playstation players do not care for multiplayer-life service garbage and disposable games.

The first demo was excellent. I already decided to buy this game, and will pass this new demo since I want a fresh experience. However, this new demo is highly recommended for action RPG fans who are unfamiliar with the game (especially if you are a soulsborne fan, just like me).

Players rather want a showcase with new games for PS5 to fancy the new system.

Horizon is a game strongly related to Alloy and other characters. A multiplayer game of the franchise is a bad idea, not interested at all.

@kyleforrester87 Anti-maskers would be certainly doomed in that world, LoL. The problems with the science of the show and the game are not directly related to masks, I just enjoyed my time in those areas. I rather can't belive in moving fungi and vaccines made from a child's brain (this is ridiculous even in the game, vaccines are not made this way). For instance, fungi cells have thick and hard cell walls (that animal cells lack) turning them very rigid (being unable to move, like plant cells in general) that is one of the reasons that fugi are sessile organisms. Also, fungi lack tissues and proteins related to tissue movement like actin and myosin. Anyway, I believe that writers deserve some poetic license to make the show/game interesting.

@kyleforrester87 In the game, these areas have higher density of spores since they are closed spaces. Maybe the imune system of people can deal with a few spores in open area, but under higher concentrations these cause a severe infection and then makes sense using masks in closed sites. My point is that these areas were creepy (more dangerous enemies, low visibility, a bit claustrophobic etc) in the game and they will not be present in the show. These two episodes in the show have introductions that tried to increase the science aspect, but there are problems (there are others but I'll avoid comment to not be interpreted as negative points). I really like the show.

The show is great so far. There are some changes that weak the science and are a bit awkward. For instance, fungi spread by spores and/or small pieces of hypha in real life, these are in the air mainly and that's why they use masks in the games (except for Ellie). They remove the masks to not hide the face of the actors in the TV and I understand that. However, what is awkward and innacurate is that, in the show, cordyceps hypha shows the capacity of movement (that is absent in any fungi) ad are used to its propagation. These hypha look more like little tentacles and, despite being disgusting, it is innacurate. In the game, areas with spores are some of the most dangerous, dark and intense and I hope they include this in any point. By the way, the clickers's sound effects are very similar (if not the same) we hear in the games, that was amazing.

Honestly, we all saw that comming. Life service games have, with a few exceptions, a short life. This is good.

I'll buy the games but I preffer physical to digital. I'll wait a to see what happens.

The game really needs a patch. It crashed three times when I was selling stuff to blacksmiths while playing the next gen version in my PS5. Otherwise, it is the same beloved masterpiece.

This proves that "forspoken" is a very poor name; the working name "Project Athia" was much better. They could name the game simply "Athia" and it would also be better. It seems that same people that poorly wrote the dumb conversations between Frey and her bracelet (or whatever that is) also decided the name of the game creating this ludicrous problem.

A great part of the cost is for hiring hollywood actors. This is a waste of money and a big mistake (there are a number of talented voice actors that cost a fraction of what they expended); not every developer can be Kojima. Developers must focus in the lore, gameplay and in polishing the experience instead of including celebs in games for its promotion.

It was way better than I expected.Congratulations for the development team.

We need more turn based games like this one. I'll buy not because of the anime but for the game itself that is very well made and deserves our support.

The reason is simple, it is because the gameplay and setting are decent but the story sucks. All things related to Fey small talking to inanimated ornaments or the story itself will not do well for many players (including me).

I never used any of my systems vertically; It just seems wrong for me. Hope Sony gives any support to owners that had this problem though.

Finish the game a couple of times, played 256 h

I played and love all Ueda games. They are part of the Playstation identity. I will support anything they have been doing.

The Witcher 3 in PS5. This game was always a masterpiece and equals Bloodborne, Elden Ring and Horizon Zero Down as the best game of previous generation for me; but now, it is even better. 2022 was a great year for gaming and I wish a merry Christmas and an excellent 2023 for you all from Push Square comunity.

This was always my impression of the game: a In-Famous action with a good setting but bad story. After playing the trailer I decided to buy the game on a sale.

@KidBoruto I agree. I have only playstation consoles for this same reason. I mean, I want that SE franchises remain in playstation but not necessarily as exclusives. If Sony buys SE we'll always have these games; however, the Bethesda situation proves that xbox would keep the titles in their environment. I miss the time when these studios were all independent.

@KidBoruto I believe not, however, this is the exact reason why they may want one. There is a lot of speculation about Japan regulators forbid these deals but, who knows?
Phill Spencer is often seen with shirts with some japanese text stamped and it is not secret that they need and want more studios. If the EA deal is prohibited xbox will have 70 billion available to purchase other studios. You know, money talks.

SE franchises were always as important as the first part ones for the success playstation. Thus, I just hope these games remain in PS consoles forever since they are among the favorite titles for millions of players, myself included.

@NomNom I think that it is more important for Sony to secure the release of SE franchises in Playstation platforms. If Xbox enventually purchase SE it will be really harsh for Playstation.

@HotGoomba Sounds great to me.

Now, just join sony.

Well, better than nothing.

For that price I'm absolutelly not interested. Most of PSVR titles are for casual gamers. Not for me.

@thetraditional Thanks for the information! I had never seen that one before. The one I have and still play is the 3000 model, absolutely one of the best handheld systems ever.

That PSP in the image looks fake (I like the image though).

Best news today for me. The combat of this one is really clunky (and not fun) in the PC, I hope they follow a similar combat system as the one of Witcher 3.

This must be that infamous Bloodborne inspired kart game.

This game seems way better then I expected. The persona-like combat looks very cool for me while graphs, music and exploration seems pretty good too.

Awesome! Each trailer from this game increase my hype. Great graphs, story, music and voice acting. The combat seems very good too, but I would like to see a future trailer with a deep dive in the combat and exploration.

@nomither6 Agreed.

In fact, it was delayed because the Sony communication and connection with fanbase is pure crap right now.

@JustPlainLoco Same here. I love the series and played all games but this one due to the ridiculous price for the physical copy for the PS4.

It is not good yet. For instance, the only way to gain points in these starting challenges is purchasing games. It seems like a exploit in some ways, although I believe this is not their intention.

Very vague claims. Everyone wants to be different and make significant contribution to their fields. This is easier to say than do. They will not invent the wheel and I can not see a life service title changing the game world. In fact, that will likely be a boring multiplayer title. Let's see and I hope they prove me wrong.

This is great news, but I would like to see something more, like screenshots, conceptual arts or gampeplay details. These news are very vague for me. We are patiently waiting anyway.

Sylens is my favorite character in Horizon series and the voice acting is really excellent. He has a bit of an antihero and the way he annoys Alloy is hilarious.

The original pixel art is good enough for me. Just increase the resolution and it's fine.
