Isn't it normally the PushSquare staff that tell US to keep our hype levels in check?!

@Shepherd_Tallon Yeah I think there is a high probability of Behemoth being shown.
Hopefully Sony put some effort in the VR content shown.

@colonelkilgore No this is the rub, assuming you are on Essentials then you will get 30% off the next two or three months. If you are already on Extra then you can get 25% off the next 12 months, so the best way for you would be to do the 30% upgrade and then in the same offer week do a 25% extension.
I think that is right at least and at this point Sony are really encouraging people to just let their subs expire. My Extra is up in September so I could get 25% off the year but I'm so disappointed in Sony these days that I'm tempted to let it expire and see what Balck Friday / Xmas brings.

They have locked the VR2 titles to Premium members only which strikes me as a little dirty. I won't be upgrading.

X Gon' give it to ya.

@jorel262 Perp games who also specialise in more niche titles (for example they are doing quite a few psvr2 ones ATM) produce standard edition versions which commonly include a booklet. I recently purchased Vertigo 2 for psvr2 and was surprised it contain a neat booklet showcasing the enemies of the game. These little touches are much appreciated.

@Jacko11 Not to mention that they were also accursed of selling CD-R discs in a recent limited printrun.

Probably trying to decide whether to go PC or PS5.

@thefourfoldroot1 Nice deal. I see Ultrawings 2 and Ancient dungeon are on sale, I think for the first time. Both 25% off at £11.99

@Ralizah Persona kart racing actually sounds pretty good.
I could play Morgana, shouting "I'm not a cat" whilst flicking Joker the bird as I shunt him off the track.
Happy days.

I can't help but feel like this is a precursor to Gamepass being wound down, remember that comment from obsidian "if it wasn't for Gamepass then this game wouldn't have been made"
I think hifi rush falls into the same category that Pentiment does, small/short low budget games.
We shall see and honestly nothing would surprise me at this point.

One of the Devs (a couple of brothers company I think) was on PS Access podcast last week.
Quite the retro fan.

@colonelkilgore
I don't know what Xbox has done to garner such good faith from gamers because most of us knew this would sort of action was quite likely.
It does make those developers who signed that letter recommending the ABK aquisition (yes I know this is Bethesda, but still) look pretty stupid imo

Can't wait to see Destin's spin on it.
I hope the developers affected land on their feet and even bigger studios sprout from the ashes. Especially sad for Arkane as Prey was a favourite of mine.

Fingers crossed for PSVR2 support and at release, or at least announced that it is coming so people can ensure their first playthrough is the correct one.
Plus PSVR2 support for RE7 would be grand as well, just a simple port would do (for me), dualsense is fine.

@colonelkilgore I always think it is good to be a little behind with RE as they often do gold editions, decent dlc and other things like VR. But I shake my head at someone who is 25+ years behind.

Well, they've already cut QA out of the development cycle so it is difficult to see what else they could cut to shorten cycles.
Joking btw, love you Todd (gimme Skyrim VR2 please).

@AdamNovice I think we are talking about the same Sony, I should have mentioned First Party like I did in the initial Housemarque article.
But hey agree to disagree and all that.

God dammit. Sony seems to be doing everything except releasing (new) games these days or putting any effort into VR (ports etc..).
Reminds me of Xbox and their controllers....want a new game? Here have a controller/comic.

Fingers crossed for PSVR2 although that would be highly unlikely and tbh it is starting to feel like if you want any First party games in VR then get a PC. The June showcase can't come soon enough.
(Apologies for the moan, the Monday blues have taken over )

Not to quibble but it isn't £65, $79.99 but $99.99

@Fritz167
Thank you for pointing that out, £11.89 for me so that will be going in the basket.

After the complete mishandling of Mafia 3 trophies I won't touch another Hanger 13 game.
First the game was released broken, then fixed, then broken and finally abandoned. See the thread on psnprofiles for more info, that thread is now many many pages deep, people have even created patch regression tools for that one blasted game.

After eight years since my first trophy, I have finally managed to click with Helldivers.
Also Midnight Suns, Puzzling Places and Epic Rollercoaster (I actually don't think it is THAT bad although still would have preferred Rush of Blood vr2).

Good luck with that.
My price point for one month is 79p.

Can't wait for a new splinter cell and if Ubisoft has any sense
(they don't) they will do a season pass which includes a port (ubi don't remaster) of Blacklist.
Blacklist was released just a few months before the PS4 and it is crazy that it hasnt been ported.

@colonelkilgore I dread to see it, the last roadmap was dire but they did seem to rip it up and start again (I say rip it up and start again ).
Please Sony for the love of God show the PSVR2 some respect.

This is why I couldn't understand the Devs championing the ABK deal, as the more studios MS has the less reliant they are on third party to boost the gamepass catalog.

Language Timothy, err I mean Sammy.

How Phil, Matt and Aaron avoided being part of the 1900 ex employees is beyond me.
But hey not content with failing in the console space they now want to fail in the handheld space. Absolutely bizarre.
Of course the crazy shilling fanbase and shilling media is partly to blame, I still remember the end of first year report by the dimwits on IGN, if I remember rightly they gave the PS5 after Returnal, Astro, Demons Souls a B- grade and gave the "we have nothing" Xbox a B. Bonkers.

Just finishing up House of Ashes, pretty good even if a bit dark and less than likeable characters.
Also started Tales of Arise.

@Darude84 That is a great deal and I would have jumped at that but unfortunately I live in the U.K., thanks for posting though and I will wait for a similar deal over here....I'm in no rush though as I'm still enjoying PSVR1.

Next up is a patch which adds dialogue to your pawns, "Sir (or Madam) should buy a multipass at the Inn".
(Repeated every five minutes, per pawn).

And then every so often, possibly midfight, all the pawns get together and chant "Multipass!".

@Zeke68 I actually think it was most likely the exact opposite in that she disagreed with Jim and Hermen and they said "Listen Connie it is our way or the highway"
Obviously I could be wrong and it wouldn't be for the first time.

NBA 2K is to PS Plus what MLB is to Game pass, only not quite day one.
A bit slim pickings this month (wasn't Lego DC on PS Plus a while back?) but I will play RE3 and possibly Midnight suns as I have heard that is good.

@Voltan
Forgotten GoW3?
The scene with the fingernail is etched in my memory, I wish I could forget it.

I will wait for the Royal edition.

Funny to see Fore VR bowl at the top of the PSVR2 EU chart (didn't chart in US region).
I bought it, and I don't even own a PSVR2 (yet!).

Capcom should do their own take on Rainbow Six Vegas terrorist hunt and have a counter on the screen, "NPC Hunt".

I miss RS Vegas, shame they never ported them.

10% discount per A, Nice but still not interested.

Put some poison on your blade and let's go!

@Shushibda Indeed, the 80s were the best and one of the reasons I dislike GTA5 was because the radio stations just didn't appeal to me. I do like to just cruise around listening to some block rocking beats (90s stuff was pretty good as well although the decline was clearly audible).
Again, personal opinion.

Wasn't too interested in this game initially as it seemed too rage inducing, for me at least, but since they have introduced an easier mode I'm quite looking forward to it.

@colonelkilgore Turning off the PS3 might help.

Hope everyone affected lands on their feet.
I know it is popular to blame Jim for all of this but I also think Hermen is equally responsible, if not more so....can't wait for that Horizon remaster.
I won't go on about my previous psvr2 comment but I would have thought the easy money would have been to move London Studio over to a PSVR1 port studio as I'm sure many PSVR2 owners would gladly pay to play their beloved PSVR1 games again, not to mention new to PSVR games as many PSVR1 are still unbeaten.

I suspect Gamertag will lose his bet.
Before the PC announcement I would have put it at one or two this year but now I think zero which is sad, even upsetting. I hope to be wrong as it has put me right off purchasing one until more PSVR1 first party ports(hell even one would be nice) or announcements (I did hear that Twisted Metal might be coming as a hybrid game).

Just started FF7 remake, wow seriously impressed so far.
Also Puzzling places, the 400 piece puzzles are no joke.
Possibly starting Outer Worlds.

@colonelkilgore Trophies but due to a parity clause there is no platinum and the trophy score adds up to a 1000 rather than the usual ~1300

(Joke btw, put those pitchforks away. )

@thefourfoldroot1 I hope you are correct because when I read this story my immediate thought was "oh dear first party software support looks even more unlikely now".
Unlike many people I don't see the positives from this (for ps5 players) although I guess it might be the cost of the headset down in the long term so there is that.
I hope I am wrong with all the negative thoughts.

Port beg shortly followed by Gamepass beg from the Xbox players.

Besides isn't the Vita a more viable platform at this point.
(Joke, mostly).

What that podcast really needed was a few games of charades to liven it up, four games would have been just about right.

The PS5 trophies are a mess so I will be playing the PS4 version.
Anyway just watched a digital foundry review and John states "we look at every version except PS4"
Noooooooooo!

PS. Love all the crazy trophies which will require multiple runs so trophy hunters will still be playing it even after the PS6 is released (possibly).

@colonelkilgore Nah, career moment incoming.

Who's cheering now?
