Finished act 2 of Returnal an hour or so ago technically finishing the game but I'm gonna go into act 3 because I find it so satisfying to play. Started Oblivion remastered and I've spent a couple of hours wandering around not doing much.
While i dont think Window Central is the best source I wouldn't be surprised if Sony did scale back everything except the multiplayer/live service stuff
@dodgykebaab I dont want to play it on my phone, I want to play it on my TV. Its not a deal breaker for me if a game has trophies or not if that was the case I would play anything Nintendo make.
@dodgykebaab my guess for most people wanting to play it now would be ease. Thats why ive bought and downloaded it i dont want to have to go in my loft dig out my PS1 and my copy then have the time setting it up when i can download it and be playing it in 5 minutes.
@dodgykebaab to have fun just playing the game? Tekken 3 is an awesome scrapper.
I have no issue with Tekken 3 (& 2 for that matter) no having trinkets, it would be cool to have them in there but I'll still enjoy unlocking all the characters like I did with Tekken 2. Hopefully the first game and Tag Tournament are added soon.
Is it really that much of a deal breaker for people to go and play these? Im more than happy that there available to play on PS5 with or without trophies, wish Sony would pull there finger out and get Um Jammer Lammy on there.
Looking back at the original PlayStation days when Tekken and Ridge Racer were only on PS1 I found it strange that Sony never tried (& they may have but I've never seen anything about it) to swoop for Namco before they merged with Bandai, same with Squaresoft before they joined up with Enix.
Downloaded Witcher 3 again and I'm playing through Fallout 4 DLCs finished the quest for Far Harbour and I've just got to Nuka World. Don't really wanna start anything new with Death Stranding 2 so close.
Into chapter 20 of DOOM TDA so hopefully have that finished this weekend, also chipping away at Balatro got my last planet cards, 100m hand and a couple more jokers unlocked only 4 from having the full set of those now.
Ah (not) E3 week, the best time of year. The rumours of RE9 have ramped up a bit over the last couple of weeks would be great to see that, Wolverine would be great as well. I always ask for it so I'm not stopping now - Dark Cloud 3 would be an absolute dream.
Yep, got my copy early (slight bonus of getting a physical copy) and played the first chapter last night, really loved the opening guns feel good to shoot, movement was great and the shield is fun to use. Loling forward to jumping in when everyone else is in bed.
Really odd seeing old first party games leave Plus. Full of hopium on this but if the two Resistance games leaving means we're getting a remaster trilogy id be pretty happy.
@Toot1st ah yeah I've just reread it, missed it first time. It being taken away from third party sellers is easily combatted by getting psn credit from a third party (like shopto or cdkeys) for less than the price stated.
@PuppetMaster according to the people on twitter it's the worst thing Sony did last year which is rich with Concord existing (then not existing 2 weeks later).
@Shad361 a game being held up as game of the year shouldn't make solid sales a flop. If anything Sonic should be the one doing big numbers given the characters decades old popularity, it being on multiple platforms and having the boost of the third film to bolster sales. I'm glad it's got to 2mil as I liked the base game of Generations when it released back in 2011.
@themightyant Bluepoint might not have wanted to keep doing remakes but to have them waste years on a LSG that's been canned probably wasn't the plan either. There's articles on this site (referencing Bloomberg) that Sony rejected the DG2 pitch.
Either way they've wasted years on games that won't see the light of day when they could have had something to show if they'd just been left to single player content, hopefully Sony realise what made them the place to play and get these teams working on something that'll release but that could very well be 5 years away now.
Sony are a complete s**t show at the moment. Should have left Bluepoint on the remaster train doing more PS1/PS2 games or hand them a legacy IP make a new entry & Bend should have had Days Gone 2 green lit given the sales success of the first game, see what improvements that put on a very good first attempt.
Made me weirdly emotional watching that, shocking how fast time flys by. Got my PlayStation for my 12th birthday in 1996 and nothing has quite felt like a gaming home since.
@Lavishturtle considering Sony's own classic games are all available to buy on PS5 and the only other Capcom classic on PSN (I believe) in RE Directors Cut is also locked behind a paywall this seems like more of a Capcom thing to me.
@VeldinX you'd think they'd want it to sell to see if there's interest, I know it wouldn't be a million seller but there's very few games more requested from them for a re-release or remaster

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 617
Returnal:
Finished act 3 this morning and now I'm searching out the last 2 glyths I need in biome 2 for the platinum.
Oblivion:
Played another hour after Returnal and I got a visit from the Dark Brotherhood so I'm looking forward to starting that questline.
Very tempted to redownload FF7 Remake for PS5 and see how the baby modes break it as well.

Re: PS1 Ridge Racer Poised for PS5, PS4 via PS Plus Premium
Where is Um Jammer Lammy?? That would probably be one of my most requested classics alongside the Wipeout games and Tekken 1.
Re: South Park Is Coming to Fortnite, Some Details Leaked Ahead of Launch
@Jammer I'd say half the stuff they put in Fortnite isn't for kids to be fair
Re: South Park Is Coming to Fortnite, Some Details Leaked Ahead of Launch
Missed a trick not having Randy (Stan's dad) as a skin, he's probably the best character in the show now (or at least run's Cartman close)
