The game has a bit of a learning curve but for what cities need which good you just need to use the flow of goods thing in the action menu which will show which good a city is in need of. Minus some clunkiness when making the trains and some issues with track usage at the station I think the game is better than Railway Empire 1 and tons of fun for a strategy game. 8/10 for me.
@Mikey856 I believe it does but when you zoom in it takes it a second to load things so when you zoom in or out at the ground level the framerate is not 60. Reminds me of cities skylines. Very playable though.
Many congrats to Push Square and other media outlets that turned this game into political drama and consequently gave it tons of advertising and pushed people into buying it to make a point 😂
A battle pass for a full price game? And here we were thinking GT7 was trying to rip us off with microtransactions lol. Looks good but I think this will be a wait for a sale purchase for me.
@Art_Vandelay yes this game does have a slight wobble effect but not as bad as the original psvr. That being said I’ve also noticed the wobble in games where you can remain mostly stationary, such as Star Wars and the kayak game. Hasn’t made me sick but did make me feel a bit uneasy. Overall though the puzzle game has been one of my favorites and is a great chill vr experience.
Railway Empire is one of the best strategy games you can buy and is just as good if not better than the original railroad tycoon games. Very excited about the sequel but want to know more about it.
Now I can finally gain enough credits in a simple manner to afford that $18,000,000 credit Porsche 917k I want. So happy I'll be able to see my wife and kids again <3
So they basically just combined PS Now with PS Plus and don't appear to be offering anything extra in terms of value such as Day-1 launch titles, plus it's more expensive than GamePass? I guess I'll continue to play third-party stuff on GamePass since it it cheaper...dang.
On one hand this is crazy as a $20,000,000 credit car would cost you $200 real dollars but on the other hand it makes people actually play the game to earn the cars in it. Overall thought I think it’s a lot of cash for the credits you get and reeks of greed lol.
It’s so weird firing up mlb 2021 on my Xbox with the PlayStation Studios logo playing at the beginning, especially since I only paid $15 a month to play it and tons of other games.
Maybe they will let us spend half the game playing as someone else trying to kill Aloy because Aloy killed their bandit dad who was just trying to provide for his family lol.
@FatallyYours117 I had to install it on the PS5 drive to get rock solid framerate even when the city it huge.
As for the DLC…it’ll be interesting to see how this works on a console since you’re limited to 9 city tiles and don’t get airports until half or more of the tiles are all used up, leaving you with limited area for building.
When a whole year of game pass costs less than three Sony PS5 games and let’s you play all the new Xbox games and 100+ other games including Sonys own MLB game the day it comes out something has to be done as being a PS5 gamer is drastically more expensive than being a gamepass gamer. I get that gamepass is a rental service but most games you play it once and you’re done so I’m all for it.
No big games this holiday season, no big titles releasing soon that justify the purchase of a PS5 beyond slightly better graphics and a fancy controller, very disappointing.
This is one of the few games where no cross save realllllly stings. Lost a livery I spent tons of time on and now I have to start over on a scenario I was almost done with and took a long time to get to. The game is perdy tho.
It’s amazing how this went from a game that lost all appeal after 15-20 hours at launch to something I’ve had a lot of fun playing for over 200 in the past couple years. So glad they didn’t give up.
After beating the game and seeing the second ending I don’t feel like it’s a game worth $70 when compared to titles like Ratchet and Clank or Demons Souls. I thought the cutscenes were confusing and the endings were just meh for me. Gameplay was tons of fun until you hit an insane difficulty spike and died (for good) and lost hours of progress. Plus some play through as you get crappy weapons or upgrades that hold you back. It’s an 8 hour game that takes 2-3 times that to beat because of the start all over mechanic. A great $30-$40 game, but it’s not at the level that earns full price money in my opinion.
@Scarla88 they must have posted that not long after I submitted my comment as I didn't see that on the blog. $10 aint bad, certainly beats the $30 they want for Ghost of Tsushima.
I think showcasing all the indies is a bit tone deaf considering the outrage indie developers have put out in the public and Sony not addressing that. Plus it’s concerning they did not detail any upgrade options for Death Stranding.

Re: Sony's MLB The Show 23 Costs $70 on PS5, Nothing on Xbox Game Pass
Yeah I dunno why you’d buy the game for $70 if you also have gamepass, doesn’t make sense it’s not on Ps+ since that’s a Sony platform.
