@Vermines I would LOVE a Batman Legacy Collection with the 8 and 16 bit Batman and Returns games, along with Return of the Joker and the Animated Series titles.
@Yozora146_ I get it, but it's 2025. We can give them a voice by literally choosing a voice and what dialogue they say. Not many people are actually sitting there imagining what they would say or how, they're just clicking through.
I'm cautiously optimistic. Disco Elysium is one of my favorite games. Without the leads it makes this feel like a copy rather than a successor, and the art style is a little too messy, but I absolutely want it to be good.
I was working at my second job, Dairy Queen, and put a PlayStation, Oddworld and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night on layaway at Kmart. It only took me a few checks to pick them up. My next games were Resident Evil and Final Fantasy VII. Stone cold classics all.
I thought this looked just awful. They really thought they nailed it with this trailer, and I was just rolling my eyes and grimacing through the whole thing. There's something very early 2000s about the whole thing.
@pharos_haven I hope not, but Double Exposure didn't sell very well (and was a bit disappointing to me as a fan), and I don't know that True Colors did either (which I loved). It may have sadly run its course.
When someone starts with "I'm sorry there was a misunderstanding," I tune out the rest because it's just going to be BS. Just apologize, own it, and learn from it.
It started off amazing for me, but after a while it felt like a chore to explore the areas and where the story ended up didn't really gel with me. But it's still extremely impressive for a debut game and there's a lot to love about it.
There are a couple of posts here that sound suspiciously like bots. Anyway, I could do without this. I played the original years ago and while it was fun I don't have any desire to go back to it. Happy for others that haven't experienced it, but I'll hope for something else.
It was an 8 and sometimes 9 for me until I got to Sukhothai. I'm forcing myself to finish it now. I hate the puzzles and traversal there. I just kind of want it to be over.
At work today but managed to squeeze in the first hour over lunch. Any worries about the first person view were vanquished after the opening. I wasn't watching Indy, I WAS Indy. Good stuff so far and looking forward to a deep dive this weekend.
@rusty82 I really enjoyed Lost Records except for the last 10 minutes or so. I'm really hoping the second part delivers. The recording and editing aspect was pretty great and I really like Swann and Nora.
I loved my Steam Deck and wish I hadn't sold it (I needed the cash at the time). I had a fantastic, diverse library of decently priced games. I'll definitely pick up another sometime, or maybe an SD2 if they actually release it in the next decade.

Re: Even More Cult SEGA CD Games Are Somehow Making Their Way to PS5, PS4
@Vermines I would LOVE a Batman Legacy Collection with the 8 and 16 bit Batman and Returns games, along with Return of the Joker and the Animated Series titles.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for November 2025 Announced
So a solid game I already played through PS Plus and two wastes of space. Eh.
Re: The Sinking City 2 Had Been Targeting a Surprise PS5 Release, Delayed Due to War in Ukraine
I enjoyed the hell out of this game once they added the combat difficulty options. If they're able to up their game for the sequel then I'm in.
Re: Unexpected PS5, PS4 Fighting Game Based on Avatar the Last Airbender Revealed for 2026
ATLA is fantastic (and Korra was really good as well) and deserves a video game to match. It hasn't happened yet and this likely isn't it either.
Re: Rumour: American Civil War Assassin's Creed Game Cancelled Due to Fear of Controversy
This could have been really great. Showing slavery, racism and the Confederacy in a bad light should never be controversial, but here we are.
Re: October 2025 PS Plus Essential Games Available to Download Now
@KundaliniRising333 I actually just had a hard freeze, reset, and hard drive repair just going to the PS Plus tab on the console. Wild.
Re: October 2025 PS Plus Essential Games Available to Download Now
Still unavailable for me here in the US. The individual pages have regular prices and the Essentials page gives an error.
Re: That New Digimon Game's Turning Out to Be a Huge Hit
@Yozora146_ I get it, but it's 2025. We can give them a voice by literally choosing a voice and what dialogue they say. Not many people are actually sitting there imagining what they would say or how, they're just clicking through.
Re: Controversial Disco Elysium Follow-Up Zero Parades Confirmed for PS5 in 2026
I'm cautiously optimistic. Disco Elysium is one of my favorite games. Without the leads it makes this feel like a copy rather than a successor, and the art style is a little too messy, but I absolutely want it to be good.
Re: Classic Cyberpunk RPG Deus Ex Is Being Remastered on PS5 in February 2026
I'm curious to see how this turns out, but I wish Aspyr would stop getting every notable remaster.
Re: New Behind-the-Scenes Video Will Build Your Hype for LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight
These BTS videos have completely sold me. I'm there day one. I wish there were a more solid release frame.
Re: Preview: Dispatch's Superpower Is Its One-Two Punch of Management and Narrative Choice
This is very much my jam and looks great. I hate episodic releases though, so I guess I'll just wait until it's complete to check it out.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy a PS1 at Launch?
I was working at my second job, Dairy Queen, and put a PlayStation, Oddworld and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night on layaway at Kmart. It only took me a few checks to pick them up. My next games were Resident Evil and Final Fantasy VII. Stone cold classics all.
Re: Gorillaz May Be the Coolest Fortnite Festival Headliner Yet
Oh man. Gorillaz are my son's favorite band, and he hates Fortnite with a passion. I'm not telling him about this.
Re: Preview: Hellraiser PS5's Sexual Horror Is Pushing Its M Rating to the Max
Hellraiser, and a lot of other Clive Barker writings, has always dealt with psychosexual horror. I'd be kind of disappointed if it didn't.
Re: LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight Is a Movie-Spanning Adventure Coming to PS5
@Bamila Yeah, not great. Doesn't sound like any previous version, or very Batmanesque period.
Re: Sony Made a Massive Mistake with Movie Sensation K-Pop Demon Hunters
The movie's great, I don't know why you're being so snarky about it.
Re: PS5 Stunner Neo Berlin 2087 Walks the Uncanny Valley with New Gameplay Trailer
I thought this looked just awful. They really thought they nailed it with this trailer, and I was just rolling my eyes and grimacing through the whole thing. There's something very early 2000s about the whole thing.
Re: Claim a Bunch of Free PS Plus Avatars with These PSN Codes
Holy cats, that is some rough artwork. Hard pass.
Re: The Mortal Kombat 2 Movie Doesn't Look Good, But That's Kinda Perfect
I liked the first one and this looks fun. I'm down.
Re: Physical Purists Won't Be Pleased by New Life Is Strange PS5 Collection
@pharos_haven I hope not, but Double Exposure didn't sell very well (and was a bit disappointing to me as a fan), and I don't know that True Colors did either (which I loved). It may have sadly run its course.
Re: 10 New PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Announced for July 2025
@Icey664 While I don't, I did play it with my kid through a rental. It's terrible. 😄
Re: 10 New PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Announced for July 2025
There are several cool games here...that I already own. I guess that's on me.
Re: Legendary's Live Action Street Fighter Cast Is Crazy, By the Way
The cast is weird and I'm down for it. I'll try anything once.
Re: 38% of PS Plus Members Are Paying More for Extra, Premium
Yeah, only because they turned Automatic Renewal back on without my permission after I had it set for cancellation.
Re: 'Good Luck with That' - The Outer Worlds 2 $80 Price Has Gone Down Horribly with PS5 Players
I liked the first one despite its many faults, but I wouldn't pay over $60 for a sequel. And just for these price announcements, I'll pay even less.
Re: Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster's Expensive Collector's Box Doesn't Include the Game
@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare It's not a Collector's Edition of the game, and they didn't call it as such. It's a Collector's Box of collectibles, a separate item.
Re: Borderlands 4 Boss Writes Grovelling Apology for Implying 'Real Fans' Will Pay $80 for PS5 Game
When someone starts with "I'm sorry there was a misunderstanding," I tune out the rest because it's just going to be BS. Just apologize, own it, and learn from it.
Re: Deliver At All Costs (PS5) - Special Delivery with Mixed Results
@StuDogg The Precinct, mentioned in the second paragraph.
Re: 10 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for May 2025 Announced
@QBGaming12 Then it shouldn't exist as a payable service. As long as it does, we have the right to expect better.
Re: Square Enix 'Hard at Work' on Kingdom Hearts 4, Even Though It Just Killed Another Game in the Series
@Fartingale Then why not just play Final Fantasy?
Re: 10 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for May 2025 Announced
@QBGaming12 You don't understand people getting mad about PAYING for a service that Sony "doesn't care about"? For real?
Re: Poll: Are You Hyped for GTA 6 After Trailer 2?
I'm really looking forward to it but it's also at least a year away, so I'm not going to give much thought to it until then.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?
It started off amazing for me, but after a while it felt like a chore to explore the areas and where the story ended up didn't really gel with me. But it's still extremely impressive for a debut game and there's a lot to love about it.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for May 2025 Announced
Survival, rogue cards, and FPS. This month couldn't be any less intended for me. Oh well, glad others are happy.
Re: PS Plus Essential Game for May 2025 Possibly Leaked Early
There are a couple of posts here that sound suspiciously like bots. Anyway, I could do without this. I played the original years ago and while it was fun I don't have any desire to go back to it. Happy for others that haven't experienced it, but I'll hope for something else.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Indiana Jones and the Great Circle?
It was an 8 and sometimes 9 for me until I got to Sukhothai. I'm forcing myself to finish it now. I hate the puzzles and traversal there. I just kind of want it to be over.
Re: Star Wars Zero Company Is XCOM Meets Clone Wars, Comes to PS5 in 2026
@EchoRange It does also have customizable characters and permadeath, even for the leads.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on PS5?
At work today but managed to squeeze in the first hour over lunch. Any worries about the first person view were vanquished after the opening. I wasn't watching Indy, I WAS Indy. Good stuff so far and looking forward to a deep dive this weekend.
Re: Team Up with Hondo in Star Wars Outlaws: A Pirate's Fortune DLC, Arriving Next Month
@crossbit He was a pirate introduced in The Clone Wars and also featured in Rebels. He also features on the Smuggler's Run ride at Galaxy's Edge.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Split Fiction?
Fantastic game. My son and I are having a great time.
Re: Preview: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Looks Stunning, Hits Hard, and Feels Fresh on PS5
I'm good with a shorter experience if that's the case. I don't have time for every RPG to be a 50-100 hour experience.
Re: Split Fiction (PS5) - A Truly Outstanding, Peerlessly Creative Co-Op Adventure
@Matroska I don't want to talk to anybody. 😅
Re: Split Fiction (PS5) - A Truly Outstanding, Peerlessly Creative Co-Op Adventure
Possibly dumb question, and maybe it was even mentioned and I missed it, but does this require headset communication to play online?
Re: Poll: What Was Your PS5 Game of the Month for February 2025?
@rusty82 I really enjoyed Lost Records except for the last 10 minutes or so. I'm really hoping the second part delivers. The recording and editing aspect was pretty great and I really like Swann and Nora.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for March 2025?
@iDreamwalker I think Veilguard is leaps and bounds ahead of Inquisition. You should give it a fair shot and decide for yourself.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for March 2025 Announced
Holy cats. I mean, I've already played through Veilguard and probably won't do a second round, but that's big. I'll also happily take TMNT and Sonic.
Re: Steam Deck's Install Base Estimated to Be About a Third of PS Vita
I loved my Steam Deck and wish I hadn't sold it (I needed the cash at the time). I had a fantastic, diverse library of decently priced games. I'll definitely pick up another sometime, or maybe an SD2 if they actually release it in the next decade.
Re: Call of Duty Confirms Use of Generative AI in Blockbuster PS5, PS4 Franchise
@nessisonett Or at least go back and refine or edit it. Maybe not all the effort, maybe just a little effort, Activision.
Re: Another Disney Classic Looks Locked for PS Plus Premium in the Future
I'm still sore about Toy Story 3 being the PSP version rather than the fantastic PS3 release. I wonder which way they'll go here.
