@AFCC Yeah surprised and disappointed Sony didn't buy these IP's... They'd rather spend billions on Bungie for live service help, but buying classic PS icons for dirt cheap? Nah...
@theheadofabroom Because the alternative is... Games made with 16-25yo edgelords as their target demographic... Ah yeah. The either or mentality. Or the "you're either with me or you're Satan's spawn" mentality. Or the "I'll quit my gaming hobby and thus be committing crime on the streets yo" mentality. You're putting words into people's mouths to feed your argument. The games don't have go be edgelord games. They can have a bit more spice to them. Seeing that you have a GTA SA logo, you would enjoy it as well. I don't see what the problem is
Well I'm dumping my money on other hobbies nowadays 😊 Gtfo Sony. You've seriously ruined 4 generations of hype for me. Besides Hogwarts, there's nothing else to look forward to. Maybe God of War. The rest has become generic inoffensive mediocrity. You know that episode where SpongeBob is rounded and lost his personality? That's what's happened to PS.
My heart was pounding reading the title. Was expecting a sequel announcement... Still, more content so I'm siked! This game really deserves a sequel though!
@themightyant Lol same for me at around the 3rd or 4th boss. Restarted it after year or two and it's now one of my PS4 favourites. There really is nothing that fast-paced like the DBZ teleportation battles. This game is epic
@Uncharted2007 It couldn't get much worse tbh. Deus Ex sat on the shelves and TR games were just meh. Would love new and interesting visions for those games
@AFCC If Tomb Raider went the direction of actual jumps and climbing being scary again like they used to, it would be pretty cool. As it is, it doesn't make sense as it's the same as Uncharted. Or at least it wants to
@Milktastrophe I didn't know that roguelike game existed or what it was, so no. Literally what I love Plus for. Downloading unknown gems that fail to get on my radar, because there are just too many games and I can't and won't keep track of everything. So, ridiculous argument.
@Golem25 I got the whole trilogy through PS plus I think and I'm still not interested to finish this bland series and that's coming from someone who was a fan on PS1. SE just dropped the ball on many franchises, no matter how many metacritic links some detectives here post
@naruball
Only me, eh, detective?
That's the reason why they're not sold well. Must be.
It's not because Lara is daft and bland and unrelatable as a character. Not because Uncharted is a million times more impressive. Or that Deus Ex MD wished it was HR. It only was 10 hours long as well.
Not because the only worthwhile game SE had been releasing was Hitman and even that one wasn't selling well and they had to sell the entire IP.
Maybe you should stop snooping in my comments and start looking into reality. SE had been releasing mediocre games, no matter what the reviews say. If Uncharted is a 10, TR can absolutely not be more than a 7, even if the IGN saints give it an 8
That's the public consensus and it lead exactly to what's happened now. A bargain bin sale
@munstre No. BS. It's because SE made garbage games. Not because of lack of interest in these amazing IP's. TR games are extremely mediocre. The new Deus Ex was not even half of what Human Revolution or the ones before that was. As a fan of HR I had no interest in Mankind Divided. Even lots of Japanase SE games were crap, let alone their western games.
Because Sony has been absolutely abysmal since Jimbo took over. There is so much potential in these titles, especially at that price. Jimbo, however, wants live service games like the absolute turd he is
@PenguinL
Because Sony is absolutely moronic nowadays.
With all the games coming out, the F2P games, the free games through Plus, everyone's backlog... Who even has time then to play stupid demo's?
It's not 2007. Sony really is insufferable lately
FighterZ edition is the ultimate edition, right?
Maybe I'll get that one

I actually hope the BBC does some Game awards show at some point, because the one we have is amateurish at best and more a advertisement/ promotion platform rather than an awards show
@Ken_Kaniff Jimmy boy with the typical American short term corporate strategy of bending down for shareholders, ruining a company for short term profit and then leaving. I look forward to PS6, because literally only Returnal has me hyped
There used to be a time where almost every PS news got me excited. This era there always seems to be some strings attached with every news that comes out of PS
Camera's a bit too far, feels way lighter which I feared, but it's still got decent physics which is all I care for. As long as they don't spoonfeed the gameplay to you like in many other games. The challenge of doing a trick over a couple of times is what skating is about as well. Don't want this to become too arcady.
@Divergent95 Yeah, very awkward storytelling, but that's my only complaint. Could work very well in a movie format with real actors though And the Rock better be one of the bad guys
Don't care much for Digimon, but would've been there on day one if the game had been good. These anime world have so much potential, but it looks like another random cheap anime game
I'm picking this up. Been waiting for a while. Don't care if it's a 6 or not.
These unique games need to be supported and this one's setting really clicks for me
@Fight_Teza_Fight
Actually pretty hilarious that. I was begging for a Smaurai AC back when AC was sorta playable. Ubi didn't think it was profitable, because what else can you expect from a company that keeps forcing futuristic crap for the sake of trying (hard) to be cool. They're out of touch. They always follow trends way too late.
This one's after Nioh, Sekiro, Tsushima, that recent Tokyo game, etc and it's not even a game lol
A Tokyo Watch Dogs would've genuinely been cool if it had WD2 polish
I did not expect the Sonic movies to be better than the Uncharted one, but here we are.
If Sony made Sonic it would be a blue painted Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg as Eggman, just to be "hip". Sony with movies is like Ubisoft with games. Always trying to be cool yoo 🤟
Just finished "finishing" the game, so that it's actually playable. Then immediately announce Witcher 4 while there's DLC being made for this game still. I just don't get CDPR. Why are they forcing everything out so quickly? We're gonna have to wait God knows how many years for Witcher 4 now
@Happychocobo
As much as I love Factions, ND does have a tendency to make unbalanced online games. Even factions is full of OP weapons. Doesn't bother me that much cause I'm a nolife in it, but still.
Just make it like Apex or something. Lots of weapons that all feel a bit different. They all are useful though and nothing is too overpowered. That combined with the AMAZING and basic maps factions had, along with the incredible stealth and tactical gameplay... Dear lord my pants need changing rn
Hundreds and hundreds of hours, platinum on PS3 and PS4 and soon PS5 if they remake it with factions (don't think so)... So pleaaaseeee release it and for the love of God, don't ruin it Naughty Gods!
I'm genuinely confused why they don't just stfu for a while and let the game speak for itself when it's nearing release? Why don't they just learn from their stupid mistakes? It's that stupid kid from school that lies and brags to everyone about how he's got the next big thing, gets found out that he's a liar, comes back the next day bragging about another big thing he got
LMAO let's go Ubisoft! This will be fun...To see how they'll fail disastrously.
They'll make all these soulless characters with so many lame customisations and outfits. So many different weapons and dances that only Ubisoft will think looks cool. They'll all play the same, because the core gameplay sucks. The sound will suck, the game will be released broken. The physics will suck. The script... it will suck beyond belief as the best way to play Ubi games is to play them with voice volume on mute.
I'll be there on day one Ubisoft. Let's go! Battle royale's are still cool! The BR games successful right now are tooooootally not successful, because of their core gameplay, but they're only successful, because they're a BR... Sure Ubisoft! Let's cash in! Let's be relevant yaaay!
Would be a blast to play 1 through 4 on my PS4/5. I just wanna buy them though, not through some subscription. Come on Konami. Let me give you money damnit
@Hakiroto @darkswabber All I can say about these kinda card games is... that I like Gwent... If that's anything to go by, I'll check it out, because of you guys lol
It does feel like they're out of touch and corporate now.
Jimbo perfectly encapsulates that. Typical American CEO who's fake in all of his mannerisms. Out of touch, greedy, short term profit.
I've been their biggest fan, but it's hard to find any excitement nowadays for this hobby, which pretty much only consists of PS for me.
Edit: Point still stands, even if he was from Zimbabwe
Man... I don't even care what is anymore.
This thing has got me excited to be in that world again, enjoying all the different stories and areas with (hopefully) great updated gameplay (one where it doesn't look like Geralt has just pooped his pants while running). Along with better horse gameplay that doesn't feel like its made by Bathesda.
