Fell in love with the demo and have put nearly 4 hours into it. Will definitely be picking up the full game soon! Hopefully this success leads to an Electronic Symphony rerelease?!
@HotGoomba Even then, the disc or cartridge is just a licensed method of accessing the game. We don’t own the files, source code, assets, engines, IP, etc.
Wait until everyone realizes that physical discs are just licenses to access a game as well. We don’t own the IP or source code, just a way to access them.
I applaud the effort to keep the original experiences intact, imperfections (by modern standards) and all. They’re already working on the input lag issues so it’s just a matter of patience.
@John_Deacon I think these were the mobile versions, but yes, all of them have constant stuttering when the camera moves. Square has never addressed it…
@HonestHick Obviously the man has credentials and knowledge, I just think it’s a stretch to say Sony the company said something when it was someone who used to work there and currently doesn’t represent them.
@HonestHick There’s a big difference between a company putting out a statement and someone who used to work for said company doing the same. You’re ranting about honesty when not being 100% honest.
This is my favorite part of Xbox games coming over. Xbox controllers are largely terrible and just feel low quality. I also much prefer parallel sticks.
@johncalmc Makes me chuckle. Same with "Consoles don't sell anymore," and, "Exclusives don't sell." Accurate about THEIR consoles and THEIR exclusives, though.

Re: PS5 Is the Second Fastest Selling PlayStation Ever in the US, Despite Price Hikes and Production Issues
@cainhurst94 Oh.... oh no! Well, maybe SteamOS will be more efficient with that than Windows?
Re: PS5 Is the Second Fastest Selling PlayStation Ever in the US, Despite Price Hikes and Production Issues
@Oram77 I saw that on NintendoLife. Controller looks horrible...
Re: PS5 Is the Second Fastest Selling PlayStation Ever in the US, Despite Price Hikes and Production Issues
@GamingGod The cope over there can get insane. PS5 on its own has outsold every Xbox console ever made.
Re: PS5 Is the Second Fastest Selling PlayStation Ever in the US, Despite Price Hikes and Production Issues
@MamaSymphonia The point of consoles is to avoid PC-BS. But if that doesn’t bother you, go right ahead!
Re: PS5 Is the Second Fastest Selling PlayStation Ever in the US, Despite Price Hikes and Production Issues
@Rich33 I completely agree. I try to focus on finding and playing cool games rather than whinging every day.
Re: Bonkers PS5 RPG Showa American Story Has to Wait Until 2026
Had my eye on this ever since it was announced.
Re: Highly Anticipated RPG Remake Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter Confirmed for 2026 Release
Can’t have a part 1 without part 2, right? I’m sure that’s the law somewhere.
Re: Highly Rated Open World RPG Wandering Sword Journeys to PS5 in February
Not many Asian RPG's I haven't checked out or eventually came to enjoy.
Re: Round Up: What Was Announced in Sony's State of Play Livestream for November 2025?
@Lizuka Really?! Wow, and that wasn't even mentioned in the article. Takes the whole show up a few notches for me.

Re: Lumines Arise (PS5) - The Most Beautiful and Most Complete Lumines Game Ever
Fell in love with the demo and have put nearly 4 hours into it. Will definitely be picking up the full game soon! Hopefully this success leads to an Electronic Symphony rerelease?!
Re: Red Dead Redemption 2 Is Now the Fourth Best Selling Game Ever, Still Chained to PS4 at 30FPS
Still buttery smooth, though!

Re: State of Play Announced for 11th November, Focus on Japanese PS5 Games
Japanese games are why I chose the PlayStation ecosystem to begin with. Looking forward to this! ^_^
Re: GTA 6 Delayed Again, Pushed Back to November 2026
Good, gives me extra time to play the previous 5!
Re: PS5 Indie Games from PlayStation's Hero Projects Are Getting Seriously Impressive
I’m a sucker for these kind of platformers with really good artwork. I feel like a lot of cool games have come from this initiative so far!
Re: Poll: Is PS Portal the Biggest Surprise Hit of the PS5 Generation?
@BAMozzy I’ve read that a lot of ‘parents’ use the ‘Portal’ when their ‘children’ and/or ‘partner’ is using the ‘TV.’
Re: Poll: Is PS Portal the Biggest Surprise Hit of the PS5 Generation?
@BAMozzy $199.99 vs. $999.99
Anyway, I think this would be nice for visual novels or retro games since there's no remote play with Vita anymore.
Re: Study Claims Physical PS5 Games Are 100 Times Worse for the Planet Than Digital Downloads

Always nice when they reboot the reboot
Re: Sony's Allowing Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection Refunds Because the PS5, PS4 Compilation Is a 'Downright Nightmare' for Some
I applaud the effort to keep the original experiences intact, imperfections (by modern standards) and all. They’re already working on the input lag issues so it’s just a matter of patience.
Re: ARCADIA Is an Attempt to Revive MindsEye with User-Made Custom Experiences
I noticed that 13GB update and excitedly googled it. Not the performance or content update I was hoping for, but I’ll try it out.
I platinumed the game and really enjoyed my experience.
Re: Exclusive: Your First Look at Astro Bot in Lumines Arise, and How the Crossover Happened
I’ve put about 2 hours into the Lumines Arise demo. Can’t wait for the release!
Re: Talking Point: If Xbox Drops the Cost, Would You Be Happy Still Paying for PS6 Multiplayer?
I play games to get away from people, so no multiplayer free or otherwise
Re: Dino Hunting Classic Turok 2 Gets an Upgraded PS5 Version
Free upgrade for those who already have it like with the first game?
Edit: Yes it is! Just checked the store website.
Re: Poll: Do You Play Horror Games Around Halloween?
@Romans12 That’s another top-tier one. Love its approach to combat.
Re: Poll: Do You Play Horror Games Around Halloween?
@Dalamar Only game so far to legitimately freak me out and give me night terrors!
I’d say that from this poll, F.E.A.R. is a peak horror franchise. Same for its spiritual successor Trepang2
Re: Forgotten PS5, PC Game Lost Soul Aside Still Being Patched and Optimised
@Oram77 I gave MindsEye a 7.5
Re: For Some Reason, 90s FMV Basketball Game Slam City with Scottie Pippen Is Coming to PS5, PS4

Re: Mini Review: Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake (PS5) - A Comforting Couple of Classic JRPGs
@ShieldHero I wish the ports of the originals on Switch weren’t so stuttery, those ones aren’t censored (or at least not as much).

Re: Acclaimed Action Platformer Antonblast Is Smashing Its Way to PS5, PS4 in 2026
Played the demo on Switch and it was super fun! All the destruction and chaos will feel even better on DualSense
Re: Millions Tune in for Halo PS5's Reveal on PlayStation's Social Media Accounts
Master Chief, do you mind telling me what you’re doing on PS5?
Re: 'We Want to Be Everywhere, on Every Platform': Microsoft CEO Once Again Commits to PS5
@Ainu20 But if you ignore all the games that are exclusive, there aren’t any!

Re: 'Our Biggest Competition Isn't Another Console': Xbox Doubles Down on Multiformat After Halo PS5 Shock
@HonestHick Sony didn’t say that, an ex-employee did.
Re: 'Significant' Layoffs Are Set to Hit Amazon Game Studios
@Striker21 Interesting takeaways from an article about Amazon laying off 14,000 workers and reducing game development…
And why in the world would anyone want Amazon to have a significant stake in this industry?
Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying Halo: Campaign Evolved on PS5?

Re: PS6 Could Be the Only Next-Gen Console Charging for Online Multiplayer
Good thing I don’t pay for it to begin with
Re: Halo PS5 Will Take Full Advantage of the DualSense Controller

Re: Halo PS5 Is Great, But Why Doesn't It Have Competitive Multiplayer?
Hate multiplayer, glad it’s not included.
