I've never seen a woman's shirt in real life (other than a bikini) that works the way they do in comic books and other mediums, such as these models, where every square centimeter of their breasts is TIGHTLY covered by the fabric over them, like it's paint. Not that I'm complaining, mind you, but it's completely unrealistic and kind of funny, IMHO....
i just platinumed BANISHERS: Ghosts Of New Eden so I went and picked up Rise Of The Ronin yesterday and started on that. It reminds me a LOT of Ghost Of Tsushima. Not very far into it yet to say how good of a game it is but from what I’ve played so far I’m enjoying it.
Other than that, I’ll be playing COD: BO6 as I always knock out the daily challenges and move on.
Hope everyone has a great weekend and enjoys what they’re playing!
My thoughts on it are a combination of answers from the poll above - I’ll only pay it for a very few select titles and grudgingly at that but I’ll typically do what I already do now and just wait for sales and discounts.
I’d absolutely love to have the Resistance series remastered as well as inFamous and Killzone. Honestly, there are a LOOOOOT of great games in the PS3 era that could stand a remaster.
I’m all over Halo however it comes to PlayStation but I’d prefer it in a ‘drip-feed’ as opposed to all at once so as to not be tempted to just rush through them.
Still playing through BANISHERS: Ghosts Of New Eden. Also playing some COD: BO6 MP. I know that game is basically becoming Fortnite at this point but it still has the best and most satisfying gunplay of all the shooters out there. At least IMHO.
I just bought Robocop in a sale a couple months ago. Decent game but I had the feeling it would pop up in the Essential tier sooner or later. Wish I had waited. Oh well, good game for those interested but haven't played yet.
Only 3 I've ever had any REAL interest in that were Xbox exclusives were Gears Of War, Halo and Sunset Overdrive. I'd also like the Senua sequel as I played the first game and enjoyed it enough, but it's not in the same class as the other 3 for me.
I’m expecting absolutely NOTHING from this game today, but I did coincidentally buy a Bloodborne T-shirt yesterday at Hot Topic that I happen to be wearing today. That’s about all I can reasonably hope for Bloodborne related happenings today.
I’m playing BANISHERS: Ghosts Of New Eden and I have to say the game is quite impressive to the point it may be one of the more overlooked gems of this generation. Really enjoying taking my time with it. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys story-heavy action adventure games.
Never been a huge fan of the Fallout type of game despite playing Fallout 3 & 4 to 100% completion on the trophy stack, so I'll be passing on this. But I'm glad that this has reviewed well as the industry in general needs some good, well-done and (hopefully) successful new IP's.
I’ve only ever played Odyssey (to 100% completion on the trophy stack) and AC III on the Vita so I’m not a big fan of the series but I’m definitely looking forward to picking this one up at some point. There’s just something about this setting that clicks w/ the AC series for me so I’ll be picking this up at some point.
I THOROUGHLY enjoyed Returnal and I'm really excited for this game based on that alone. I'm not usually one to buy an 'unknown quantity' on Day 1 of release but Returnal was so impressive I have enough faith in this studio that they'll do this title right and this **might** just be a day 1 buy for me.
As someone who's never played a Final Fantasy game in their life, I can confirm beyond a shadow of a doubt it's Tifa's looks and ONLY her looks that make her the 'most appealing' girl in gaming.
Gross. No idea why anyone would want to look at that, but hey, to each their own. I’ll pass on that myself though, despite the fact I’m looking forward to the game itself
I’d LOVE the return of Resistance! Even Killzone would be awesome! But what would REALLY be amazing is a Bulletstorm 2! That game is so underrated and under appreciated in my book. I wish they would do that but I already know they won’t. 😕
I’m playing BANISHERS: Ghosts Of New Eden. So far I’m fairly impressed with it. The graphics are amazing and the storytelling is quite strong. It has very light RPG elements with solid combat mechanics and a surprisingly large world to explore though I wouldn’t say it’s an ‘open world’ since it’s fairly linear, but there are a lot of branching paths and you can backtrack easily enough through a fast travel system. All in all I quite like it and I’m enjoying my time with it. Hope everyone is enjoying whatever they’re playing as well!
I'll get excited when I see news of Gears Of War, Halo or Sunset Overdrive comig to PS. Those are the big 3 (and really the only 3) I've ever wanted to play from Xbox.
Wow! That looks REALLY good! Graphics are super impressive. I hope the gameplay measures up as well. If so, I'll be all over this come release day. I like they're setting it in Japan. It looks really creepy. Hope it turns out excellent like the SH2 remake.
Not really playing anything other than maybe a few matches of COD BO6 as I
1) have a ton of family and church obligations that will take up a lot of my time And, more importantly, 2) really don’t have anything to play since finishing up Lords Of The Fallen this week.
Looking for that next new game to play and not really sure what to grab. Been looking at Banishers, Alone In The Dark, Lies Of P, System Shock remake and Astro Bot but each has its drawbacks preventing me from pulling the trigger. I guess I’ll see what goes on sale next week and kind of decide that way…..
It didn't come out in FEB '25 but I spent the month largely enjoying every second spent playing Lords Of The Fallen from '23. Can that count as my Game Of The Month??
Dear Moderators - Please don't ever remove an @Czar_Khastik post. He may be 'inappropritae' at times but I look forward to his comments as much as I look forward to reading the articles themselves. Dude has a great sense of humor that I, for one, enjoy immensely. Do the community here a solid and give the man a permanent pass. Just sayin'
The slaughter continues....... How incredibly disappointing. Feel terrible for those that have been laid off. Never good to be without a job. On a personal level I'm also disappointed to hear that the Wonder Woman game has gotten the axe as I was quite looking forward to it.
Great game and either my personal GOTY or the runner up from '24. Glad to see it was a such a success! Hopefully we'll get a sequel in the future. In the meantime though, I'd love to see some story DLC for it.
I’m finishing up my 1st playthrough of Lords Of The Fallen and grinding through all the gear, supplies and XP I can before I start NG+ for a different ending. The game is one of the best Soulslikes I’ve ever played and I dare say actually improves on the FromSoft formula in a few ways. But the game isn’t without its’ flaws and also falls waaaay short of the FromSoft gold standard as well in a few areas too. All in all, if you like the Soulsborne style of game you owe it to yourself to play this game. Hope everyone enjoys what they’re playing this weekend!
I’m all about FromSoftware and play every SoulsBourne they put out but there’s something about this one that has me awfully skeptical about it and I won’t be picking it up day 1 like I normally would.
DRAG!! I absolutely love the Crysis series and it's one of my favorite FPS titles. Was really looking forward to this. Oh well, seems to be my luck these days with some games.......
I've always liked RE5 a lot and it's one of my favorite entries in the series, so I'd be down for a remaster on PS5. I'd rather have RE9 first though but it seems that may be a ways off yet.......
With the quality we've come to expect from every GoW game, I'm personally fine with whatever direction they decide on, as I know it'll be a top-notch game and experience. But I'd personally like to see them go in a new direction and maybe tackle Egyptian mythology. I think there's a LOT of potential there.
I’m still working my way through my 1st playthrough of Lords Of The Fallen. Really enjoying it! It has some great ideas, mechanics, art design and graphics. It’s not without its flaws but overall it’s quite a good Soulslike. Happy gaming everyone!
I’ve been pining away for either a Resistance 4 or a remake / remaster of some of the original games but it seems Sony’s as brain-dead about this series as they are with just about everything else these days…….

Re: New Animated PS5 Wallpapers for Welcome Hub Let You Celebrate PS Studios Hits
I got the update and the backgrounds are pretty cool. Definitely better than what we've had for years now.
On another note, somehow I was expecting the Stellar Blade animated background to include ......'jiggle physics'. I wonder why??

Pick better games to port (IE Halo, Gears Of War, Sunset Overdrive, etc.) and the sales numbers will be better.
