Got a PS5 last year, and was able to import my Xbox Witcher 3 save files via their website, so I could play NG+ on my PS5 copy. Love how CD projeck red do this
I wanted to pre-order. never mind I've owned just about every Nintendo console ever made, and purchased a stupid amount of games. because I'm not a subscriber to the rubbish that is switch online, I'm not deemed worthy by Nintendo to be allowed to preorder. fek this.
I'll buy one as I can afford it, the hardware itself looks very good. But only game I want, if it even counts, is the Zelda BOTW upgrade. But more will follow...
I'll still get one, as the kit itself looks very tidy. But no new Zelda or 3D Mario game is a shame. And classic Nintendo, having to pay to up the frame rate on BOTW...
I mean, BOTW is my favourite ever game, so I'll get the Switch 2 and the upgrade... but there isn't ONE first party game I am remotely interested in...
and anybody have wheelchair basketball on their bingo card??
I would have thought PS5 owners were more concerned if MS show Oblivion remake and Master Chief Collection (Halo), implying they would also come to PS5?
And if it's £450 - fek that. I paid £338 for my PS5 slim digital from Amazon, to pay well over £100 more for something significantly underpowered is madness.
what a shame. why can't they include ALL the games!
I have a few of these on Konami arcade collection, and a couple on hu-cards for my pc-engine, but would have been nice to have ALL the games in the series in a single collection.
still not played Fallout 4, but really enjoyed Fallout 3. Spent 6 months working in this part of the country in a research station 25 years ago, and studied the Windscale accident as part of my Masters, so very interested in this game!
@Darude84 have to say as somebody who really loved the game, I was so disappointed with the DLC. Didn't feel nearly as engaging as the main quest, or the faction quests tbh.
Don't listen to the obvious haters, often parroting opinions of others. I put well over 100 hours into this, whilst it lacks the exploration of other Bethesda games, and the loading screens aren't amazing, the main and faction quests are fantastic. It's a good game.
I just don't get it/. I never will. I adore Wallace and Gromit, I'm even from Bristol FFS. But this game seems like punishment to play, unless you're high?
Unless they significantly up their marketing, store presence, exclusive games, give people a reason to buy an xbox and heck even make people aware that xbox exists, who is going to buy this? I have over a hundred digital games across the last 3 xbox consoles but picked up a PS5 (my first since PS2) solely due to all the exclusive games. Xbox going multi platform means I have zero reason to buy another MS console, and I'm a 'fan'.
Gamepass has zero appeal to me, I already have too many games, and if you wait 6 months for a game to be fixed/patched/bugs removed, it's normally fairly cheap on sale anyway.
Love the era and the music, love BoJack, little bit crap that they have totally ripped off the BoJack art style, as confirmed that the BoJack peep isn't involved in any way.
@UltimateOtaku91 I just don't see how people don't see this. nobody is selling their PS5 to buy an xbox, but me and countless others seem to be selling / shelving their series X to buy a PS5.
I'm new to Sony, if it was clear, it was known, that they had 1 or 2 big shows a year that focus on first party, then 1 or 2 on third party games, you'd know what to expect and this could all be avoided!!
@Sakai I mean, headlines on this site like "Sony XDEV urges fans to tune in to state of play" etc will create some expectations. After that, I expected some exciting announcements. Lots of these multi platform games shown look good, but I expected more than I saw, based on the hype Sony themselves created...
with so much negative Sony press recently around years of wasted dev time on live service, lots of job losses, we then have an SOP announced, that feels like a positive reaction to all the negativity. Sony staff themselves URGING us to watch... then it's all so mid...
As a longtime, older gamer, but new to PS, I don't know what the purpose of the SOP is, so it's hard to set expectations accordingly. Both MS and Sony make decisions that baffle me, but regardless of the aim of the SOP, I just can't wrap my head around them not mentioning the FREE Astro Bot DLC that was about to drop the next day!
Xbox made a lot of mistakes, but their developer directs are now spot on, 3 or 4 games, proper deep dive and they're games coming out SOON!
Switch do third party directs, and that's what this SOP largely felt like to me.
SOP was a rather soulless slideshow of 3rd party games, all rather impersonal... I love how Yoshiaki Koizumi presents the Nintendo directs

Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle (PS5) - Globe-Trotting Adventure Just Got Even Better on PS5
Will 100% buy this when it drops to £30 or so, too many games in the backlog to need to drop £70 on a 15h game!!
Looks great though

wasn't worth it at £350 over Xmas, and £400 is NOT giving it away, are you crazy?

The next xbox will sell horribly.
