This bodes well for the headset that will be coming out soon. Sadly the 3d Pulse couldn't hold a candle to the excellent Platinum Wireless headset, hopefully this next one will be similar to the new buds!
The sheer scale of the previous gen's victory has undoubtedly hampered this gen. I love my PS5 but there have hardly been many great next gen experiences. Most of the titles mentioned can be played on a ps4. The likes of Astro, Spider-Man 2 and Alan Wake 2 are few and far between.
Having said that, the ps5's power allowing us to play ps4 games as the devs intended (60fps 4k) has been the defining feature so far. The likes of ps5 version of gta online just want possible last gen.
Absolutely no f-ing way. Its way too good looking and immersive and I'm too much of a wuss. That gameplay trailer was enough for me. I can appreciate it's easily one of the best looking games of all time but it's just not for me. Now if you don't mind I'll go back to ignoring Alien Isolation for another six years
@Ambassador_Kong you're right, Ellie was an unlikeable psychopath for half the game, but it was right that the audience wasn't given just what they want.
Injustice 2 for a fiver is an absolute joke. The best beat em up of the last gen and including this gen. I always found it weird why they never bothered to make MK look as good as they made this look.
Still not gone back to Bloodborne after ragequitting it after 20 minutes about five years ago. Couldn't see what the hype was about. Maybe one day I'll give it another go.
Been waiting for a game to use the Zelda A Link to the Past light world/dark world mechanic as well for decades! Looks great but I won't be going anywhere near it - way too creepy!
This is started to get a bit uncomfortable, now. It's a useful bit of info, nothing more. But HAHAHA aren't they WEIRD with their different approaches and culture to fan engagement hahahah weirdos hahahaaa.
As someone who played Ecco the Dolphin on the Megadrive without actually going more than five feet below surface level this is most welcome! Will it apply to just the dlc maps or the whole game?
Yeah definitely more of a Flashback demake than anything else, even down to Conrad's jacket. Will definitely check this one out when it hits the Plus collection
Between the yearly sports games and Apex Legends I'm not surprised. Don't underestimate just how massive Star Wars is, either. Tons of people are still discovering Jedi Fallen Order, tons of people still play the two Battlefront games too.
Live service when it's done well can be great. From giants like Fortnite and GTA V, Rocket League to smaller games like Battlefront 2015, Battlefront 2, Injustice 2 etc, there are lots and lots still going for a good reason. I mean it doesn't help that Avengers just felt...boring to play, and also the insulting install size.
Like an idiot I kept putting this one off, again and again and again and now I've probably missed the boat, it's way too late to get started with it. Dead impressed with the No Man's Sky-esque redemption it seems to have pulled off though!
Yeah good shout at the end of the article. My first thought when hearing about this before was "I bet it's for VR" as those play sessions are typically shorter.
A bit remiss to not even mention the fantastic score AND soundtrack, especially when some episodes have their emotional weight and dependancy tied so closely to certain recurring tracks and themes. I'm loving reading the positive reviews all round though!
@Vacuumator @Anke Jess and Dan did have to let everyone go after their VR game was done, then they got bought out by Sumo Digital so looks like things are on the up!
@NeuralDeclan to be fair they've got previous. Redefining the industry not once or twice but three times. Arguably close to four with the Red Dead Redemption games. But yeah following the biggest entertainment product of all time is... well I don't envy them let's say that
While I'm a fan of studios being whatever they they wanna be, I'm afraid there's just no justification for comments such as "X looks better". It objectively doesn't and you're pandering to those who think who comment contrarlily. Push square should be better than this.
This is just...bizarre from them. Half of my wishlist that's on this sale will be on ps plus this time tomorrow. Would love to be able to see sales info after each sale.
Part 3 will 100% be called Reunion. Glad to see they're sticking to their guns continuing the seismic story changes from Remake. A straight remake would be so boring.

@IAmAshCohen17 yeah it's pretty decent, I paid full price a few months ago and don't feel short changed

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Post-Launch Updates to Add New Game+, Mission Replay
@CrackmanNL exactly, it makes zero sense to add NG+ on day one.
Re: The Last of Us 2 PS5 Remaster Seems to Be Real
@Ambassador_Kong maybe the real psychopaths were us all along.
Nah I liked Abby though. She was hard done by and the character was entirely justified in her actions. I hope we get a lot more of her in the future.

Re: No Man's Sky's Latest Major Update Improves PSVR2 Version, Adds Corrupted Worlds
@MickOnYourFace it definitely is. It streamlines the first few tutorial missions to get you up to speed and jetting off pretty quickly now, too.
@Futureshark coming up to six years now, even more impressive!

Re: Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Will Feature Larger Maps, Populated with More NPCs
Too many bug like enemies. Get rid of them, make the levels a bit less boring to navigate and this could be something special.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Producer Says Narrative Changes 'Necessary' to Keep Players Interested
I personally loved remake for these reasons. If I wanted the original story it takes 30 seconds to select it from the game library

Re: The Witcher 3 PS5 Version Is Getting a New Patch 'Very Soon'
