All I want (which I'm extremely doubtful of) is our account and progress being able to carry over onto the PS5 version. I've got a feeling that they'll want everyone to start from rank 1 again.
Such a stupid anti consumer move getting rid of the option to create events. These help to add to the longevity and community of games (particularly the former with smaller games).
@Futureshark honestly, when Eurogamer gave Tetris Effect game of the year I thought it was a joke. How can a Tetris game be good? But then I played the demo and... Jesus Top 10 PS4 game ever for me. Those guys are geniuses.
@wiiware if you're looking forward to a story heavy game, you avoid spoilers. It's all very "fingers in my ears alala I can't hear you lalala" from Sony and ND.
What was the reason for the ex dev leaking it? Were they treated badly in terms of crunch and this was a revenge leak or something? Either way, going online at all is going to make a lot of people very nervous from now on. Fingers crossed it's all swept up soon.
It's extremely optimistic. Not gonna happen. It also has no business taking place in London, it's too arrogant and elitist to hold it there. Bring it back to the middle of the country.
@Netret0120 this. I own UC4 but it's a great month because the online will be healthier now. It's just a shame Naughty Dog are the worst devs for post launch online support. IF their servers hold up it's always a great game to jump into
Part of me thinks it's a PR hoax and it's actually real, just shot using an ooooold camera to explain the grainy jumpy resolution. There's no way it's not real.
Sonic Forces is a decent game, even more so for free. Never played SotC, it's been saved in my wishlist on the ps store just waiting for a discount/sale so fingers crossed this is true!
@Unffclcntrllerpd yeah I know what you mean, new things are cool and everything, but it's strayed so far from the original vision which was almost perfect at first for me. Not as many stretches of quiet moments in-game anymore. The new procedural music tracks in the game are far inferior to the original soundscapes done by 65 Days of Static (though thankfully they are also still present).
Seems pretty standard fare for a AAA now. RDR2, Battlefront 2, GTA V, more and more games are approaching the 100GB mark. PS5 needs to be a 2TB minimum.
To be fair, reviews have no bearing on a releases success (or lack of). I will applaud the Verge's approach to not giving a number to a review, though. If you have to slap an arbitrary number on a review then you need to be better with your review content. I still think this will be just silly fun.
This is definitely Nier related. My personal hope is for some kind of prequel set during the first machine war (and that it's exclusively for next-gen).
Firewatch at £2.99 is almost disgusting. One of the best experiences this generation. An extra 40p for the bundle which gives you a top dynamic theme (changes depending on the time of day).

Re: Sony's Finally Resolved the PS Store's Biggest Flaw
Not checked to see if it's been included as part of the fix, but there's a similar problem with EA Access titles.

Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake 2 Now In Development, 'You'll Be Waiting a Little While', Says Square Enix
With the inevitable delay after the first date announcement, probably mid 2023 which is fine by me.
Re: FIFA 21, Madden NFL 21 Will Use PS5's Controller to Heighten Immersion
ISS Pro on the PS1 already had this humanisation. The last 2 generations have been disappointing in that regard
Re: No Man's Sky to Support Cross-Play Starting Tomorrow
@ApostateMage my immediate thought haha

Re: Tetris Effect's Gorgeous Soundtrack Is Available to Purchase and Stream Now
Got the vinyl on the way, just about made the pre-order window in December!
Re: All PS Plus June 2020 PS4 Games Officially Announced
Arguably best PS Plus month ever. Have they included two gargantuan AAA titles in the same month before?
Re: Grand Theft Auto V Has Now Shipped an Incredible 130 Million Copies
Seven years after launch and I'm still finding new things across the mentally huge map
Re: Your First Look at Tony Hawk Remake PS4 Gameplay Comes Courtesy of Jack Black
Thanks for calling it what it is - a remake. Makes no sense for them to be calling it a remaster.
Re: Reaction: Sony Needs to Show Us a True, Next-Gen PS5 Exclusive After Lukewarm Inside Xbox
They don't need to do anything. They can start showing it off properly with a month to go and it will be fine

Re: PlayStation Disables Likes, Dislikes, and Comments on The Last of Us 2's New Trailer
@FindMeCampin people that are avoiding spoilers...
Re: PlayStation Disables Likes, Dislikes, and Comments on The Last of Us 2's New Trailer
@wiiware people that don't want it spoiled won't be reading the comments.
Re: PlayStation Disables Likes, Dislikes, and Comments on The Last of Us 2's New Trailer
@Areus word up son
Re: PlayStation Disables Likes, Dislikes, and Comments on The Last of Us 2's New Trailer
Wow. This is disgusting from Playstation.
Re: NieR Replicant Aims to Please Fans of Automata with New Combat System
Automata had great combat, this was a no-brainer. All time top 5 games for me.

Make PS4 Updates Great Again
Re: EGX Returns to ExCeL London This September
It's extremely optimistic. Not gonna happen. It also has no business taking place in London, it's too arrogant and elitist to hold it there. Bring it back to the middle of the country.
Re: Resident Evil 8 Will Apparently Be on PS5, Is First-Person And Will Be Announced Soon
Well that sounds absolutely terrifying. In the best way possible, it's a no from me.
Re: PS Plus April 2020 PS4 Games Announced

Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake's Soundtrack Stretches Across 7 CDs
@rjejr Barratt actually sings/shouts it after battle! Clearly not as good, but it's there in spirit.
Re: Hands On: Call of Duty: Warzone Is Fine, and That's Not Good Enough
It's a good thing. If you took away the building side of Fortnite I'd probable enjoy it better
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Wearable Speaker Is Japan's Oddest Accessory
Being snobby to other cultures or people that like wearable tech is a bit low.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Goes Gold Ahead of April Release Date on PS4
@DeepSpace5D buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurn
Re: You Won't Be Able to Play as Red XIII in Final Fantasy VII Remake
It makes sense, as gutting as it is.
Re: Rumour: PS Plus March 2020 PS4 Games Leaked Early
Sonic Forces is a decent game, even more so for free.
Never played SotC, it's been saved in my wishlist on the ps store just waiting for a discount/sale so fingers crossed this is true!
Re: Microsoft Confirms 12 Teraflops for Xbox Series X, 120 FPS, Quick Resume
Flopping hell! At least games won't look Terable.

Re: Deliver Us the Moon Counts Down to Launch on 24th April for PS4
If there's no weird jump-scares that don't belong in the game (naming no names cough cough) then I'm all over this!
Re: No Man's Sky Gets Living Ships in Latest Major Update on PS4
The game at launch was enough for me, but I have to applaud Hello Games for putting 99% of other devs to shame for post-launch support.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Box Confirms the Game Is 100GB in Size

Re: Rumour: PS5's Price Could Be High After Sony Struggles with Expensive Components
£399 is fair game. Anything lower than that is a bonus.
Re: Sony to Partner with Smilegate to Bring South Korean Shooter to Big Screen
Biggest FPS of all time and I had genuinely never heard of it until late last year.
Re: Amazing The Last of Us 2 PS4 Theme Changes from Day to Night in Real Time, Is Free with These Codes
@sanderson72 I switch back to the Firewatch one every other month. Such a great mood lighting theme.
Re: Sonic Gets New Fashion Line with Puma Ahead of Movie Release
@nessisonett they just beat the bidding war with Ellesse, they sealed the deal by throwing a case of Sunny Delight in. Cowabunga.
Re: Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Doesn't See Sony As Competition Going Forward
@Urrggghhh we're talking DECADES worth of public/nationwide infrastructure before we're properly ready; Particularly under this government.
Re: PSone Crushed the N64 Because of Depressing Games and Lonely Players
I feel attacked by this.
Re: Sony Suggests PS5 Price Is Still Undecided
Sony can win the next generation straight away by announcing £399.
Re: Platinum Games Sets Up Mysterious 'Platinum4' Teaser Site
This is definitely Nier related. My personal hope is for some kind of prequel set during the first machine war (and that it's exclusively for next-gen).
Re: Soundtrack of the Decade: #9 - Persona 5's Brilliant Sense of Style Gave Way to Quite the Soundtrack
Great article! Hoping to see one on No Man's Sky in the next week or so

Absolutely loved the first one, was shocked to see the change in direction for the sequel but looking forward to trying it out.
