I think PS3 was the last time I got to play three games in one franchise while pushing the graphics? Uncharted? Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't want to wait to PS6 to finish another franchise.
After playing through Double Exposure, and Deck Nine trying to set up their own MCU of nosebleeds, I'm happy to leave this franchise behind. Tugging at the one storyline that worked, I'd prefer they didn't set one major story choice in stone for a new game. I prefered the anthology approach.
I very much hope all affected staff get their jobs back, or at least severence. It's not right what Rockstar have done, and they need to pay for what they did.
It would take a very big new gen exclusive, from a franchise I love, for me to ever consider jumping straight into PS6. I am still enjoying a lot of PS5's games, and even the remakes and remasters, ps plus premium releases, and all the games still to come on PS5, that I doubt I will ever think about a PS6 console. Considering the potential cost of one as well, and Sony back at their PS3 ego peak, I highly doubt I'd even be able to afford one anyway.
Having finished my first playthrough of SHf, I'm happy to say I love it and excited to see how much NG+ changes things. I'd be very surprised if they do show some things from Bloober Team's SH1 remake, as full production was announced not long ago. I would hope they give Townfall a good showcase instead.
If this is the same show I saw last year in Glasgow's Hydro, they didn't sell out then either, a lot of empty seats and even cut down on available seats before the show. The show itself wasn't great, and it felt like Sony had forgot a lot of what made them great over the years. It wasn't just Last of Us, Horizon, God of War, and Uncharted. So I was disappointed in the show.
I'm very happy with the game. Just going through my first playthrough now, its dark and unsettling. The enemy variety critique confuses me when there wasn't much in other SH games...
5 years into the current gen's 7 year life cycle is an amazing achievement, but I very much feel this is Sony almost forcing a sunset on PS4, rather than it happening naturally. I bought a PS5 day one, but have to admit that the current gen exclusives have been sparse due to the market share with PS4. Sony aren't doing themselves any favours by keeping the console prices where they are. I don't see myself ever purchasing a PS6, due to a massive backlog of unplayed PS4/5 games, and the likelihood that the cross gen releases will continue well beyond 5 years after the PS6 release.
I'm not waiting on the fixes particularly. I'm going through Silent Hill f at the moment and I haven't been distracted by the shimmering, but did notice it while having a good look at it. I have found a few noticeable frame drops though in the town area, when the general store has a number of enemies outside it.
Trying to avoid spoilers as much as possible, but I am loving the game so far. I actually like the combat, I think getting the counter right is annoying some. I'm just glad to see the franchise back on consoles as well, and looking forward to the next Remake and Townfall.
I bought the PS5 Pro thinking this will be my final console, as I fully expect a very extended overlap of simultaneous releases on PS5/6, much longer than there was with PS4/5 releases. I've got enough of a backlog to take my time.
Happy for me and my wallet to wait. Got Tomb Raider IV-VI coming out around the same time, so picking up that to enjoy while waiting on the physical release of this.
@LogicStrikesAgain not entirely. I have read elsewhere that indie devs cannot dictate when their games go on sale on the PS store, and only allocated to certain sales. Don't know if that was resolved.
I just bought myself a PS5 Pro and I think that's it for me. If I ever finish the backlog of games already on this system, I'll maybe think about another upgrade, but that will probably be at least halfway into another generation.
Day one. Cannot wait! I do hope for a psvr2 mode, but don't mind if they don't. I want to hope that referencing Outbreak, they'll be remastering those multiplayer games. That was the only time they've got multiplayer RE right.
Can't believe we got Pragmata gameplay, i thought that game was dead. Romeo is a Dead Man looks insane. Silent Hill f looks great. Very happy with the show!
The game and franchise had so much potential. The lore and and story was great, but they basically packaged the prologue as the first game. It was so short and ended just when it should have been starting.

@Pat84 It's annoying, but I think Sony needs to foot the bill on this one. Or it might be announced for later, like with Village

Sony - there are other IPs you could be making more of an effort with.
Seriously.
