Let’s goooooooo!!!!
I can’t wait… I want to know more but I don’t want there to be spoiler-y stuff. Kojima is usually pretty good about not giving away key plot points and keeping pretty much all the mystery intact.
I need another set of hands and eyes so I can keep playing the first one but also make a dent in my backlog. The first one for me is infinitely playable.

I’ve always wanted to do it but never have: I’m going to take off a day or two of work when this releases. I cannot wait to play this! I was and still generally am obsessed with the first one. Can’t wait to see what happens next in the story and what technology/cool tools and gadgets will be available for use.

My body is parcels are ready!

This is one of my three most anticipated shows at the moment. Severance is finally out so that leaves 2:
-The Last of Us: Part 2, and;
-Yellowjackets Season 3.

Can👏not👏wait👏

Had fun with the first one but have no interest in going back for that or the others again. Was kind of a dark time in my life and I never cared for the roided-out huge upper body macho “dudes”.

Yea, gonna pass. Let’s meet back here when Halo releases, that’s what I’m really looking forward to!

Day one, full price.
I’ll sell plasma if I have to.

@Hyena_socks that’s so good to know it actually is good. It reviewed well but I love a personal recommendation over a mass review any day. It looks so cool and stylish. What sold me was the Shining Force 2 style battles.

@Llamageddon Was not aware of this one but I’ll check it out, thanks!

Looks really cool but the only mouse/rat game I have in my radar at the moment is Small Saga. I hope that comes to consoles so badly…!

I thoroughly enjoyed Outlaws, far more than Survivor. To each their own I guess…

I would, and I will, buy a Master Chief collection on PS5. Day one.
I haven’t played any beyond 2 but I played the crap out of 1 and 2 on Xbox back in the day.
I’d even sign up for PS Online again to play the online portions again.
I am not an online gamer but I will be one (again) if it’s for Halo.

I always read that people try games on GP and then buy them on PS5.

I’ll offer something different:
Kojima is creative, pushes boundaries, has insane attention to detail, and is genuinely one of the only talented visions in the game industry these days. I can play tons of other games that I shoot people and they fall and I loot bodies, etc. I appreciate his offering of something different in this shooter/Ubisoft-open-world/metroidvania/turn-based/dialogue box filled landscape.
This is currently my most hyped game at this point in time. Alongside that on the same list is Dragonyhm, Petal Runner, The Transylvania Adventure Of Simon Quest, Twilight Bastion… a few others.

The first game was great as it unfolded and we learned the story and plot and there were a lot of points where I was like “WTF JUST HAPPENED.” Genuinely confused sometimes but always realizing what was going on. Very interesting, on-brand Kojima stuff.
I can’t say I have that excited reaction for many other games.

This game is amazing and deserves so much more credit!!
It is filled with charm and humo(u)r. It’s fun to play with people watching because it feels like you’re watching/playing a cartoon.

@Fuzzymonkeyfunk @helbertpina well alright then! I’ll give it a watch if there’s at least some gameplay shown. Thanks

Haven’t watched the trailer because “cinematic game trailers” are pointless, more or less, to me. No gameplay, no watch.

However, from what I know about ND, I know it’s going to be a blast, overflowing with charm and quality, so I’m all in.

Best of luck to Tati! Cannot wait to experience this new story from one of the best devs out there.

It looks like PS’ version of Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom. Hard to not see the similarities. Pretty cool!

I’ll keep an open mind because this isn’t an overused setting and so it feels fresh. I’m also a huge Turok and Turok 2 fan so that’s another cool point. Hopefully I can play solo.

I wish they hadn’t divulged that there are no jump scares or monsters. I think that would be more than half the fun being scared something might happen.
Still, I’m going to be checking this out.

I too feel it’s mostly a negative that you can’t earn more lives or continues by getting a good score; rewarding your good gameplay.
It’s not a deal breaker but I think I’ve played more games that go that route than this one.

Can’t wait to play it on switch!

I’d pay 4.99 one-time to keep it.

I just got the game, December 2024, and it’s phenomenal. I’m enjoying it so much! Easily my favorite Star Wars game since shadows of the empire.
The sound design is great and I actually feel like I’m playing in the Star Wars universe. I heard the game was rough when it released but I’ve yet to encounter any weird moments that took me out of the experience, I suppose after many updates. It’s feeling like my big blockbuster holiday game of 2024 ✌️

@GamingFan4Lyf how can I like this post more than once? Hookshot needs to give us a ‘like’ feature like Death Stranding where we can spam the like button as fast as possible for about 10 seconds.
:: death stranding like sound :: 👍

You are spot on.

@The_Wailing_Doom biggest feature for me is the REAL TIMELINE!
I too got rid of Twitter once Elon (which I pronounce “Ellen” 😁) took over.

Bluesky has been great to me! There were few deals accounts I was following on Twitter that I no longer had an eye on after leaving the platform. Luckily most have accounts on Bluesky so I’m back in action again.

It’s between 1 and 2 but I’m certain I’ll be sticking with 1. It sucks it’s limited time!!

Upskirters are a creepy bunch. PS5 Pro should add electro-shock functionality to the controller so you get violently shocked in addition to getting kicked in the face.
...though some of you may take that as a "feature." Can't win.

How in the flipping heck is Silent Hill 2 not even on the list here. The amount of work that went into that game — sound, haptics, etc. — is worthy of nomination.
I’ve never watched a game awards and now I’m for sure never going to. Credibility is non-existent.
As others are saying, why can’t DLC just be in its own category for best dlc?!

Really worth the extra money to some folks?

Awesome, now all the devs are working to add support for their games when they could be working on new things instead. Wondering if this will create a small stagnation in new game releases over the ne... ugh... it doesn't matter.

I can see them doing 3 next since it takes place in the same regions of 2 (not saying this is a bad thing but re-using assets and environments would be smart from a business perspective). If I could pick though, 1 would be the one that “needs” a remake if any. 1 has its own charm with the distorted visuals and stuff and I love that but it would be great to see it on the same level as 2 now.
I just got to the “3rd level” in SH2 and it’s by far the creepiest, anxiety inducing game I’ve ever played. Highly recommend playing with headphones plugged into the control. If you think the graphics and taptics are given attention to detail, good god the sound is on another level of immersion; immaculate!

That has to be Douglas Cartland‘a hat from Silent Hill 3! I love this nod…

So dumb. Was looking forward to playing this but I won't ever be subbing for this, or any other game.
I already sub to Nintendo and I'm not having Sony stick another wallet IV into me for syphoning funds every month.

I have no clue how some of you played through already and even one or two of you even played through 4... that's right, 4 times!!
I started on launch day and I just only finished the hospital. Granted, I am scouring every nook and cranny because I'm loving the memories you come across and finding extra ammo and health has saved my butt. I'm playing on Normal for combat and puzzles and I am finding myself dying quite often and really trying to conserve health and ammo. I'm finally getting the hang of enemy attack patterns. Some of the enemies just tank through my attacks and I get punished dark souls style which is on me I know but... It's tough for me, I'll say that much.
I guess I got bad at games over the years haha...

By the article, companies bolstered up the work force during the height of the pandemic so they hired all these people. Everything grew proportional. Now they're shaving off the excess they hired because the height is over...
Sounds like these companies --Bandai Namco-- also need to taper down their expectations. The demand is not down, it just might be down in comparison to when everyone was staying home and gaming. Their expectations can't stay inflated like they were during the height. What nonsense. All I hear is greed and it blows my mind how easily things are considered "a flop" nowadays.

@Loamy I fought pyramid head last night in the remake and clinched the entire time. Was dreadfully scared in the lead up to that fight. I feel like I can’t get comfortable with the mechanics and that keeps it feeling fresh constantly. Genuinely didn’t know what to expect in that fight. Pleasantly surprised. I love it so much.

I have a huge backlog. See, what I did was just take one arm and swish the entire lot off the table and now I just have this one game sitting there: Silent Hill 2. It's so good so far! I hate to compare it to Alan Wake 2 but I'm enjoying it much more than that. They're both over-the-shoulder horror games and so that's why. Alan Wake 2's scale is massive whereas Silent Hill 2 is more concise and not as daunting going on item hunts, at least so far.

I'm a huge fan of the original as well so maybe I'm biased but for anyone the fence, it's truly great so far. NICE JOB, BLOOBER + KONAMI!!!

I find it hard to believe Delta is not having any new lines recorded or re-recorded.
I’m certain it’s for MGS3elta or that fan film you mentioned…

Jelly, checking in 🙋‍♂️

I can’t wait to watch this broadcast. I’m so excited for this sequel! I have about 150 hours I think in the first. It really got me into electric vehicles and storage/carrying gear. I already loved bags but now I shop for them differently. I have a Bridges sticker on my OneWheel

Gotta love incels, man. Seriously feel bad for the devs having to deal with this low-level crap.

They need to make the game a little more "grimy" if they're going to make the graphics better. The game looks fantastic but it's also very sterile and bright. At least make a setting to turn things a bit more dull and lifelike.

Im trying hard to think of a few reasons why they would be announcing — talking about — games that are already out. I've only thought of 2 and they're not exciting, and may even be considered bad:
Either there is DLC coming for the games listed, or;
They are choosing to leave all the folks who purchased a PS5 thinking we were getting a next-gen console behind and focus on this PS5 Pro which was probably supposed to be the console that released in place of the standard PS5.

This is ridiculous. Like @Gaia093 said above, glad Shredder's Revenge is getting an upgrade... It's insane to think they expected us to play it in its current state. This is exactly what I was talking about in some of my previous posts: Why do we need a "pro" system when we are playing games with pixel graphics? Outside of tiny graphical bumps, what else is there to improve? Load times? Wasn't the standard PS5 supposed to be like a front-runner for quick load times?

Ya'll, I'm real sour since the announcement of the Pro, if you can't tell.

Maybe they should have led with this video or one similar where you could actually see a difference. Still not getting it because I don't sit and stare at graphics when I, y'know, play games.

…uh… on the original PS5 looks… “awful?”
What is this person smoking?

Don't forget folks, it's only going to be the AAA publishers who are really utilizing all these features. If you're playing games like that new Castlevania collection, or Slave Zero X, or Shin Megami Tensei, etc. what the hell is the point?
It takes massive budgets to make those graphically heavy games and those are usually the ones on the chopping block in all the articles recently. This whole thing, pricing, the improvements, it's all so stupid all around.

Guess I'm not a pro.

@devil76 Yeah it's honestly wild to think about... Prices are on the rise for everything and it's really hard to justify what I won't even call a convenience upgrade.
...that being said, speaking of VR2, I'm kicking myself for not getting VR2 while it was on that recent big sale.

Enjoy it, folks.
Just like Apple having the gall to release that new VR headset at that outrageous price in this economical climate, here comes Sony with this now . Who can afford these things?
I consider myself well off but there is no way in hell even I can afford this, and even if I could, it’s be really hard to even justify it. The PS5 is perfectly fine as is. I’m actually a bit disgusted.

Came to add my two cents:
Cool for those who want it but personally, my PS5 still feels brand new to me. I have zero interest in a pro model at this time.

Oooooooffffffff
Ouch.
Hisss…
Guffaw….

That’s rough, guys. This was a hard sell even for folks who like these online shooters.
:: goes back to waiting for silent hill 2 ::

3 was my least favorite because of the arduous camo management; constantly swapping and blah blah …
Also me: I’m getting this even if I feel like I’m betraying Kojima.

@Wiceheid perhaps you can hold down a button to force walking no matter how far you press the stick. Or maybe you can click the analog stick to lock it to walking only or click it again to unlock and let it be 100% pressure sensitive… just throwing out ideas. You make a good point.
