@Oram77 perfect dark is the game I’m most interested in from MS. As far as I’m aware there’s been no mention or rumours of it for PS5 yet but at the rate things are going it seems there’s a pretty strong chance of it happening I’d say!
Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft are all making massive profits and it seems they are using the "tariff" excuse and rising development costs (that's been happening for decades and isn't new) to justify increasing prices again. They could easily help the consumer by not doing so. However I understand they are a business and greed is real in business.
For their sake I hope the increase in profit they get per sale negates the lower volume of sales. If not I'm sure the prices will come down. It feels like they're testing the water of what price people will accept.
I'm like you and gratfeully can afford it but I'm not paying for something that I feel is bad value.
@AhmadSumadi exactly, he’s so iconic he should be seen! I think the devs realised that hence why they at least show him in gameplay cinematics…
I played it just passed the Vatican level (no idea how far that is into the game) and don’t think I saw anything up to that point that couldn’t have been done in 3rd person.
Anyway I have to get back to a game that poops all over Indy in my opinion, CO: Expedition 33!
Played about 5 hours so far and loving it. The game looks gorgeous and the combat is fun. I’d still be playing if I didn’t have to go to work tomorrow!
Started playing this and it’s the first first person game I’ve played in years. It’s given me motion sickness for some reason each time I’ve booted it up.
I’m only at Vatican City but already wondering if I’m gonna make it through. Seems decent so far though…
This game totally surpassed my expectations, especially after all the negativity around it at launch.
The world looked amazing, I loved how it weaved through the story’s of jabba, lando etc and didn’t have any Jedi whatsoever (even though they’re cool) and fair play for the devs to mix up the usual Ubisoft open world formula with the reputation system.
It played like butter on my pro and I’m well up for some more so will pick this up. Love it when a game surprises you so much.

Re: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 a Proper Breakout Hit, Now at 2 Million Copies Sold
Deserves to sell 10x that!

Can’t believe this came out in 2006, man I feel old 😬
Re: Expedition 33 Is Increasing in Popularity with Each Successive Week
I hope this goes on to sell 20m!
Re: PS5 Exclusive Ghost of Yotei Rockets Right to the Top of PS Store Pre-Orders Chart
@SeanOhOgain exactly is this even sales driven data? They might not even claim it to be just assume people think it is as it’s set in a chart format.

Like everyone I’m not surprised and at least we have an actual date. Unless it’s delayed again…
Re: Opinion: If You're on the Fence, Consider Buying a PS5 Now Before the Prices Inevitably Rise
@BrintaPap this is how I feel.

Re: Expedition 33's Outstanding Critical Reception Receives Recognition from French President
Meanwhile Ubisoft look over enviously...
Re: Opinion: If You're on the Fence, Consider Buying a PS5 Now Before the Prices Inevitably Rise
I never thought I’d say this but my favourite pastime - gaming - is just becoming too expensive for me to justify.
If we end up all digital then at that point I think I’ll bow out. At least at the moment I can recoup some value in reselling physical.
Re: Xbox Now Selling PS5 Games for $80, Joins Switch 2 in Price Increase
Let’s not forget Sony started this at the beginning of the generation with increases.
Looks like I’ll be buying fewer games moving forward…
Re: Upcoming PS5 Games for May and June 2025
My wallet will be taking a rest from PlayStation purchases for a while. Between my backlog and switch 2 think I’ve spent enough on gaming recently!
Re: Poll: Are You Sold on Borderlands 4?
Never gelled with it for some reason so happy to let this one pass…
Re: Expedition 33 Dev Working Around the Clock to Re-Stock Boxed PS5 Copies
So glad I preordered which I barely ever do. Had a feeling about this one. Just need to get away from work to play the damn thing!
Re: Xbox's Forza Horizon 5 Adds Almost One Million PS5 Players in Just a Few Days

Re: EA Confirms Heavy Layoffs, Titanfall Game Cancelled
@naruball yeah these statements are just copy/paste. Never anything original, meaningful or believable.
Re: PS5 RPG Expedition 33 Has Some of the Highest User Ratings Ever
Not only is it superb, I got this for £40 preorder. I don’t remember when I got such good value from a game.
It’s making Nintendo and even Sony look bad in the value stakes.
Re: Promising Soulslike WUCHANG: Fallen Feathers Tickles PS5 from 24th July

Re: Ghost of Yotei's PS5 Price Provokes Fresh Switch 2 Fury
@AgentGuapo likewise. I’m also a Nintendo fan and absolutely won’t defend their pricing.
Sony are looking good value-wise in comparison.
Re: PS Plus, Xbox Game Pass Are Not the Future of Gaming, Says US Analyst
I’d also argue many people have subscription fatigue.
Re: Not Everyone Loved Oblivion Remastered's Shadow Drop
Yeah when it happened I did feel a bit sorry for Clair Obscur seeing as that deserves all the success it gets.
Good to hear it’s doing well but probably got overshadowed a certain amount regardless.

Expedition 33 all the way for me. Loving it!

Re: Indiana Jones PS5 Is Selling Faster Than on Xbox and PC, Claims Analysts
@themightyant true I appreciated they at least gave 3rd person views for some cinematics and first person can be better for immersion.
Don’t get me wrong they did a great job overall, it’s a solid game. Just my preference would be different that’s all.
Re: Indiana Jones PS5 Is Selling Faster Than Xbox and PC, Claims Analysts
100k doesn’t sound massively impressive in all honesty.
The game’s decent but for a character like Indy I think I’d have preferred 3rd person.

I’ll definitely appreciate an offline mode for motorfest. Thanks ubi.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Indiana Jones and the Great Circle?
No poll loading up on my phone but I’d give it a 7.5.
Was the first first person game I’ve played in ages and it gave me bad motion sickness for some reason which wasn’t ideal lol
Re: Bethesda Shows Solidarity with Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 After Oblivion Remastered Launch

Wow is there no "proper" physical release?
Re: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (PS5) - Daring, Quirky RPG Is an Absolute Must-Play
@LiamCroft hi Liam nice review as always thank you!
Can I ask were you close to awarding this a 10?
Re: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (PS5) - Daring, Quirky RPG Is an Absolute Must-Play
Sweet. I very rarely preorder especially with unknown IP but for some reason I did with this. Glad it turned out well!

(No I don’t work for Ubisoft 🤣)
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on PS5?
Have bought it and is being delivered today.
Might boot it up but have recently started FF7 Rebirth so I’ll try to hold off the temptation until I’ve finished that - which might not happen!
