@__Seraph clearly youre referring to me. My life is going just fine thank you and I'm quite happy. All I'm doing is demanding more from a subscription service that raised it's prices and offered no upgrade to the quality of their games. If we accept whatever we are given and just be happy we won't see an improvement, like we haven't had most months since this service began. I mean come on, medieval is already available to play multiple ways and I'm supposed to be happy it's added to the already bare bones premium tier?

@get2sammyb look of you're looking forward to 'checks notes' Tales of Kenzera: ZAU and animal well, 2 indie metroidvanias in an already saturated market fair enough. But these games will be bargain bin prices in matter of months

Bargain bin selection of games as usual. My sub is running out this month and I can't wait

Rebirth and battlefront classic collection for me. Still very curious to see rebirths sales figures as its an amazing game with a lot of work put into it I hope it does well as the developers deserve it. All I can find is an old article about it's sales dropping in the first week in Japan

@nomither6 found the target audience

Shooter co op multiplayer online live service battle pass cosmetic microtransaction season pass

I'm so tired of this sh*t, so so tired

@Specky I actually bought the Arkham collection last month on that sale, that's one of the 5% that's actually a good deal 🙂

I used to always check out the sales until I realised 95% of the games arent discounted, they are just reflecting their real life value. The scam is when there is a game that's like 5 years old and psn has its "real" value before the discount at like 69.99

Hmm not too happy with these choices myself. Was looking forward to this game but co op multiplayer seems a strange choice. Could be closer to suicide squad than GoT

Oh my god oh my god oh my god I am honestly freaking out! The best battlefront games, with multiplayer, oh my god

Soooo many hours spent in battlefront 2 as a kid

Wow judging by review scores, game of the year spiderman 2 is only one point better than this 😂

Sony will pay for this half assed generation with their ps5 pro and ps6 sales. I for one won't be fooled by Cerny bigging up the next 'generational leap'.

The ps5 may as well have been called the ps4 pro 2 or something because that's all it is. No wonder there are so many cross generation games, it's because we havent really crossed generations, we've been scammed.

I would be the first person to call out woke crap but I honestly don't see why people are complaining. I think she looks hot

This is crazy, the ps5 might as well have been called the ps4 pro 2. What a scam this generation has been. They will pay for this with their ps6 sales, people won't be fooled again

Is 1.3 million units a success these days?

It's funny the amount of pearl clutching going on online because heaven forbid we have an attractive woman in a game. Sex with a bear is then pretty much praised. We truly do live in a clown world

@mazzel I don't think it's intentional, I mean why would people on a playstation website focus on Nintendo titles? Especially when they are on 4th and 5th place. I remember a lot of people on here mentioned TOTK when that was doing well

Co op live service looter shooter, what a novel idea! Pass

Just a tip for people who want to buy ff7 rebirth, I got the physical pre order for 60 euro on allyourgames.eu, big savings when the ps store is gonna sell it for 80

I really don't understand why we keep getting these articles. What good does this do? All this will achieve is piss off people and also give those vile people the attention they crave. Hate clicks are as good as any I guess

@naruball I would have to disagree. Of course there are some instances where death threats are followed up on but I would say far far less than 1% of all these nasty comments on social media ever actually amount to anything. Giving them attention just encourages more

Out of millions of players of course you will get some sad people. If I were a cynical man I would say insomniac went looking for these tweets and used them as a distraction for why they don't yet have the update released

@McBurn completely agree. Just ignore it, this actually encourages these people as they get attention. Not sure how insomniac doesnt understand this. Victim mentality never helps anyone.

I couldn't really care less about this game but a word of advice to people that dislike this games story: avoid at all costs any game that collaborates with a company called Sweet Baby Inc.

Mario kart double dash is the best Mario kart. There I said it

Hopefully developer's/publisher's take this as a sign that a noisy minority will not affect sales negatively and keep woke crap out of games

Having no elemental weaknesses, status effects really turned me off FF16 as a 25 year ff fan. Will never replay it or play the expansions. I don't understand how people praise the combat in 16 it was just spam your abilities once you get a monster staggered rinse repeat, that never changes the whole game through so gets boring and stale after the first 10 hours. Hitting a bomb monster with fire magic and it doing damage was just not final fantasy

@AdamNovice because the game isn't even out and they're already locking characters behind a pay wall. DLC is fine when it's adding to an already complete experience. Also just because it was in the previous game it doesn't make it ok that its in this one.

I heard something that re purchasing GTA V gets you extra money in the online? If true these aren't really new players buying but the poor whales buying the game over and over. Kind of sad really

@AverageGamer let's be real I think most people can afford more than 1-2 games a year especially if you get them on a sale. It has everything to do with games launching incomplete, the safety net of future updates has made studios complacent.

@GamingFan4Lyf ya that's what I gathered it was too. I guess the triple A industry has conditioned us to always expect an incomplete game at launch which will always need future updates

Not every game needs constant updates. I don't understand the negativity about a game being finished with development a year after launch. This mindset facilitates unfinished games at launch.

This is not the model. Google Mary Jane spiderman 2 writer and you will see who she is really modelled after

To those asking why the ps2 emulator isn't done, it's not not ready because sony couldn't be bothered why would they when they can just throw us the inferior PSP ports. Come on guys it's not that complicated if they really wanted they could have an emulator running within days. Sony's formula is the same as any corporation: least amount of effort to get most amount of money.

Good reviews don't really get a game very far it seems. Strange I guess their importance is exaggerated online. Anyway really didn't like this game so not happy it's doing poorly but not surprised, it's a glorified walking sim and most people want gameplay when playing games. I know, shocker

I'm still not getting why everyone seems to love the bestiality so much. I mean why is that something people enjoy in a game? I mean if it's old fashioned not to like bestiality then please call me old fashioned

I'll be resuming my quest to aquire all gems in crash bandicoot. I'm a big souls fan and if you attempt this, it really is the dark souls of platformers 😂

I'm a huge ff fan and hated this entry unfortunately. First of all it's not a final fantasy game in any way, I know people will say it's evolving or whatever but fans of early entries were fans because they liked those kinds of games and it feels like square just dumped us in order to have broader appeal. Also if this wasn't a ff game and just a normal action game I honestly don't understand how people enjoy it. The combat is sooo basic it was tedious and I avoided whenever possible, same said about the side quests except I forced myself to do all of them. The set pieces were awesome but everything else was just so so boring and a chore. If they want it to be an action game make it 15-20 hours don't make it the length of an rpg because it doesn't have the depth to be engaging for that long. A shorter game just focused on the set pieces would have been much better

I'm def getting it when it's like under 20 eur. The original mw2 is the one I put most time into and I know the maps off by heart. But ya paying full price for dlc is a real indictment of what certain game companies can get away with these days and it's only gonna get worse

Totally agree, they learned from ps3's launch they saw the 360 pass them out in sales and towards the end of ps3 and the whole of ps4 they have dominated. That brings us to the ps5 which is still living off past generations success imo. That good will won't last forever so an empty first party release schedule, live service push and the poor quality of games being added to an increased price subscription service will start catching up to them before the generation is over. Hopefully they can turn it around our else I feel this is Sony's peak

FF7 Rebirth can't wait. I love the direction they've taken the combat and as a massive FF fan I need a cleanser after the huge disappointment that was FF16

@Cherip-the-Ripper google them 😂

@Ravix for me anyway when I'm playing games, gameplay is by far the most important thing to me, good story etc is great too but if I want a good story I'll read a book. I know that's not the same for everyone it's just my opinion and it doesn't mean it's the right one.

@bozz you didn't mention gameplay in your list of Alan wakes qualities I see 😂 no worries agree to disagree, no hard feelings!

@bozz I'm honestly not trying to shift the qualifications, I thought Hogwarts was a decent game, maybe 7 or 8 out of 10, I enjoyed it. But alan wake 2 I thought was boring rubbish, very little in the way of actual gameplay got about 6 hours in and was too bored to carry on. Would definitely say it's way thinner on the gameplay front than Hogwarts. So just because I think that I guess that shouldn't be nominated either? 🙂

@bozz Equating it to CoD and fifa which are just retreads when Hogwarts was made from scratch from the ground up is unfair. I do understand your argument that the games that were nominated are all better but isn't RE4 actually a retread?

@bozz whatever your opinion of it you can't ignore the sales and a lot of other people out there absolutely love the game and it would be their game of the year so your assessment of it is completely subjective. If you don't think the most popular game of 2023 shouldn't at least get a nomination I don't know what to say
