Re: PS Plus November 2021 PS5, PS4 Games Announced

Dange

@Spiders Control and FF7R worth more than the annual sub. For me, 1 good month a year pays for the annual sub. Not like we are paying £50 every month. I think we've had several good months. The rest is a bonus, it's good for variety.

Re: Mini Review: Alex Kidd in Miracle World DX (PS4) - Who Thought This Game Needed a Remake?

Dange

Can totally understand the review. As a big fan of the original I'm very happy with it myself. The ability to switch between new and original modes is a great touch. Found myself doing that a lot. I forgot how hard it is though, brutal. The infinite lives is a nice option to have for when I finally admit defeat mind.

I can't remember what I had for tea yesterday, but I still remembered that to defeat the first boss was stone and scissors and thats a 30 year old memory, it still works. If I remember correctly the second one was paper and scissors. Haven't got that far yet to say for sure.

I never did finish the game back in the day, but I got to the final boss a few times. Hopefully the infinite lives should see me finally get to the end.

Re: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (PS5) - Intergalactic Stunner Puts PS5's Power on Display

Wow, I'm not one to pick on review scores but I read this review as a 10 based on the words, maybe a 9. Quite suprised to see 8 considering the flaws were the length and difficulty (which I assume playing on hard should fix) Not a criticism simply wanted to point it out. I feel like a 12 hour story is a positive and quite appealing to me. The £70 price will come down. I've played enough 30-50+ hour games lately.

Re: When Will PS5 Exclusives Drop in Price on PS Store?

Dange

Second hand is still an option for people who have the PS5 with the disc drive. I found someone selling Sackboy's Big Adventure like new for £30 on PS5. I generally prefer to buy new to support the devs. But, on the odd occasion when it makes sense, second hand is still an option this gen. For this reason alone, I'm sure we will get sales soon enough.

Re: Sony Has More Than 25 PS5 Exclusives in Development, And Almost Half Are New IP

Dange

Nice. Just trying to work out the numbers. What did we get last year?....Dreams, FF7 Remake (timed), TLOU2, GoT, Miles Morales, Sackboy, and a few PSVR exclusives like Iron-man VR. Plus a couple I've probably missed so around 10 exclusives games for the year. Obviously that's with the launch of a new generation. I consider that a really good year of exclusive games.

So 25 games is probably the next 2-3 years or so sorted. Nice.

Re: PS Plus May 2021 PS5, PS4 Games Announced

Dange

Always amazes me how entitled some people are. PS Plus is what £50 a year tops and that's when not in a sale. This selection for May is one months worth of 12 we get. Not to mention the other benefits like discounts and the 20 Instant games collection on PS5. Not bad for around the price of 1 game.

I always look at it as 1 good month a year makes it worth the cost for the year alone.

Re: Soon, You Won't Be Able to Buy These Awesome PS1 Games

Dange

@Papasears I think it's more a clean up on the back end. Sony get a 30% cut of games sold. Say X game sells 1 copy at £10. That's £3. And these games are likely barely selling anything. Just not worth it to them. Sony have to keep the accounts of them devs/publishers open for games that are not financially worth keep on the store for them. That's likely the case for most the older content. Thousands of games that just don't sell anymore.

I don't agree with Sony, its bad publicity, they loose a lot of trust and I think it's poor form from Sony. But at least we still have access to the games we have paid for on the store.

Re: Soon, You Won't Be Able to Buy These Awesome PS1 Games

Dange

@Grumps859 Sony will presumably have looked at the numbers and decided its not worth it. Most the older games probably hardly sells all that much and they want to have a clean up and cut off the old stuff that's just not selling. I personally think it's a bad move but I can see some logic in it. Even though i don't like it.

I just hoped Sony would find a way to bring them older games over to the PS4/PS5 Store somehow. But even then, all the licences for the games would probably be a massive headache for them.

Re: Deal: New PS Plus Subscribers Can Get Free PS Store Credit Now

Dange

Just seen this on the store I have an active Plus subscription and it doesn't say anything about only for new customers unless it's super hidden but surely they'd make that clear.

Also it's currently showing £15 of wallet funds not £12.50. Maybe they've updated the deal @get2sammyb ?

Re: Future Bethesda Games Will Ship 'Where Game Pass Exists'

Dange

@liamcroft Would a potential sequel to say Deathloop or Ghostwire Tokyo as timed console exclusive be considered as having a PlayStation legacy in a few years time? I suppose one game is not a legacy. It's gonna be interesting to see how this all pans out.

Re: Sony Delighted by Reaction to Next-Gen PSVR Headset Announcement

Dange

Great to get more games announced. I hoped Sony would continue to support the system but I never expected it to get supported for this long. Fair play to Sony and all the devs for making great content. I'm glad I invested in one at launch.

With regards to PSVR2, I want to see...

A slimmer headset with less wires and no external box.

Larger field of view and better resolution.

VR without the camera requirement.

Backwards compatibility for the current VR games with a boost mode.

Analogue sticks on both the new Move controllers along with the other dualSense benefits.

And a strong line-up of games in the first 12 months.
