Sony's response should be bringing back its long line of franchises it has left alone for far too long. Syphon Filter, Resistance, Jak, Sly, Killzone, The Getaway, a lot of dormant franchises that could reasonably replace what Microsoft could make exclusive. Also buy Square Enix and Capcom, as well as Konami IPs.
Better get started on reviving Resistance, Killzone and SOCOM and for platformers we still have Jak, Sly and Ratchet. I would love to see Sony pump money back into those franchises as a reaction to this news.
I would prefer it if Sony bought Capcom, just so Microsoft doesn't. Cause it certainly seems that Microsoft would rather buy the competition than try to win it. Seriously, they haven't allowed any new acquisition to release anything yet.
Well if it isn't backwards compatible then it's definitely not a day one purchase for me. It's a shame that they won't patch some games for this new hardware. Terrible decision.
Am I the only one reading this as you have to pay £10 for EACH remaster? The blog post and the picture ad state that "if you have the DISCS, you have to insert THEM in order to download or play the new VERSIONS." So you only get Lost Legacy upgrade for £10 when insert the Lost Legacy disc.
Well done, Rockstar! Pull the previous ports from the store before gameplay for the new version is released. Release a badly optimised update for double the cost. Glad I didn't buy day one. Hopefully they sort it out.
I remember hearing the whole third Act was scaled back on the boss fights, and rather had you fighting each member of the sinister six individually. It would be great to see what they originally envisioned, but the game is fantastic without their inclusion.
@MickOnYourFace I just came here to comment the same. They have set up a separate listing for the plus version, much like FF7R earlier in the year, so that we can't get the PS5 upgrade for Free.
That is great! I don't understand why games don't add additional trophies for each expansion they release... looking at you Marvel's Avengers as one example.
My thinking is: Rockstar announce Remasters for current consoles and will be deleting old remasters from digital stores - new customers buy old remasters as they want the original experience. Price leaks for new remasters pushing people on the fence to purchase the old remasters thinking it's a bargain, as not much will change in gameplay and graphics. Rockstar release new remasters and not much has changed. Those few people thinking Rockstar would do an amazing update to each game are disappointed and wait for a sale.
Amazing how the bluepoint rumour about them remaking Metal Gear Solid gets shut down in one day of them announcing they are working on an original IP, that this new rumour of an MGS THREE remake is on the cards at another studio and the remasters are in progress. I'll take that bag of salt to go. Silent Hill rumours still ongoing...
I really don't want to see anymore right now. We have Midnight Suns, Spider-Man 2, Wolverine, Guardians of the Galaxy and the ongoing Avengers. Unless they can come up with some fitting gameplay and story ideas, they are wasting development on an original IP or even highlighting one of Sony's own franchises. I would hate for Naughty Dog to turn around and say they are spearheading an X-Men game, for example, as I would see that as a waste of their potential with their own original storytelling.
I really don't want to play collectibles -the video game again on PS5. I will platinum the ps4 versions on ps5 and be done with them. Imagine that the first big announcement of Naughty Dog's involvement on the PS5 is a repackaged remaster, and Insomniac already have their third and fourth title already lined up...
@Juanalf same! Happy to know when the character is coming but glad the showcase is more focused on other games. I don't need any ongoing game updates in the showcase.
Jaffe's opinions swing only to the extremes so I am taking this with a pinch of salt. I would love to see some God of War Ragnarok and if Capcom have the next Resident Evil to show off or Dino Crisis remake.
@JustPlainLoco I would love to see Sunset Overdrive released on PS5. Insomniac are absolutely killing it right now and I am there for it or a Resistance Renaissance!
Yeah, I'm sick of rumours, possibilities, job listings leading to make believe what if games and just general maybes. I am so tired of Sony's silence and they need to change that pronto.
Is it more or less blatant marketing than Sony BluRay on a billboard in the middle of Times Square during a fight with Electro in the Amazing Spider-Man 2...? haha
Hades is phenomenal and so addictive right now. I love it. Prefer it over Returnal and Dead Cells right now, but those are my games just now haha I must hate myself.
They delayed a TEASER two months and then only noticed a graphical glitch within 12 minutes of said teaser launching. (estimating 12 minutes as that is when they tweeted "Are you ready?") Turns out they weren't. But I don't understand how they could work on it for 2 months and not have it ready....A TEASER! This isn't even a full trailer, this isn't even a full gameplay video, this is a teaser!

I think they're releasing everything we have ever asked for or secretly wished for.

Re: Talking Point: What Do You Realistically Expect from PS5, PS4's Game Pass Inspired PS Plus Reboot?
I think I would be happy with PS1/2 and 3.

I think Jeff Ross needs to move on.
Re: Nothing to Announce on PSVR2 Backwards Compatibility, Says Sony
Well if it isn't backwards compatible then it's definitely not a day one purchase for me. It's a shame that they won't patch some games for this new hardware. Terrible decision.
Re: Not Everyone Had the Fortitude to Finish Returnal on PS5
I mean I love the game. But yeah, I am stuck at Biome 6 and just really tired of how frustratingly difficult the game can be.
Re: Abandoned Prologue Chapter Coming Early 2022, More Info 'Shortly'
Meh. Will see what the Game Awards announces.

Re: Godfall's PS Plus Version Is All Endgame Content, No Story Campaign
Then I won't be getting it.
Re: The Elder Scrolls 6 Isn't Coming to PS5, But It's Not About 'Punishing Other Platforms'
I totally understand that Phil. I think we got that the first time it was confirmed and reported. No need to make another article about it.
Re: SteamWorld Headhunter Moves the Series to 3D in Third Person Co-Op Adventure
Had no idea they did an rpg called SteamQuest. Now I am annoyed it has never appeared on PlayStation.
Re: GTA Trilogy's PS5 Framerate Analysed, And It Ain't Pretty
Well done, Rockstar! Pull the previous ports from the store before gameplay for the new version is released. Release a badly optimised update for double the cost. Glad I didn't buy day one. Hopefully they sort it out.
Re: Where to Pre-Order Elden Ring on PS5, PS4
Preordered the collectors edition via Game Collection. Cannot wait!

Re: Talking Point: Did You Enjoy Sony's Latest State of Play Livestream?
That State of Play should have been a blog post.
Re: GTA Trilogy PS5, PS4 Release Date and Pre-Order Info Revealed on Rockstar Website

Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for October 2021?
I mean not every month is going to be great but I feel the last few months have been particularly bad.
Re: GTA Trilogy Could Be Pretty Pricey on PS5, PS4

Re: Sony Allegedly Funding Kojima Productions Silent Hill Game
I feel like we just go round in circles with this rumoured silent hill game. I think we all will end up disappointed

Re: Poll: Do You Want Even More PS5 Marvel Games from Sony?
I really don't want to see anymore right now. We have Midnight Suns, Spider-Man 2, Wolverine, Guardians of the Galaxy and the ongoing Avengers.

I am happy about this as it meant the "playstation hits Nioh" icon became "Nioh Remastered" like it supposed to be.
Re: Fans Ponder Whether There's an Upgrade Path for Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection on PS5
I really don't want to play collectibles -the video game again on PS5. I will platinum the ps4 versions on ps5 and be done with them.

Re: There's a Dicey inFAMOUS PS5 Rumour Doing the Rounds
If we're remastering a PS3 era collection then I would love a Resistance Trilogy. One franchise that passed me by and I think would do well again.
Re: Alan Wake Remastered Listed for PS5, PS4 Release on 5th October
YES YES YES!!! I have always wanted to play this game in full since getting a wee play of it on Xbox. Day one for me!
Re: God of War Creator Says First-Party Games Will Be at PlayStation Showcase 'With Flying Colours'

@Batesy125s oh that made me chuckle! 🤣 Still, what the hell was that waste of time!?
Re: Deep Dives from Featured Teams to Follow PS5 Showcase
As long as we don't get a video of a dev team exploring how to make a catapult then this should go okay!

Re: TT Games Founder Reckons Insomniac Games Misled Fans with Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart
