@ShadowofSparta after watching a bunch of utubes, it’s on order.
I’m not sure I’ll get time to play. So many great games out and my backlog is impossible.
I always remember my dream as a kid to be able to buy any game or console when I’m older. Well at 52 I have arrived and it feels just as good as I imagined.
I want to get into a good racer, but I can’t stand the lack of damage. When I see the car ping pong against obstacles and still remain pristine it irks me. Wreckfest solved the itch , so wreckfest 2 is the only other racer on my list.
It made me seasick so sold it. However the experience was mind blowing and I think there are a good collection of games. It’s a niche piece of kit and a now at a good price.
Gaming has never been so good.
Will pick this up on physical. Had a friend who purchased a pc engine & a bunch of games from Japan, as soon as they were released. He kindly lent it me and my brother and that same week school was cancelled because of snow. Right up there with my most magical gaming memories.
Purchased this ages ago and never gave it enough time. Great that everyone is loving the game. Just so many great games out there, I don’t have enough time to devote.
Defo a physical purchase from me. Il play it and pass it on to my nephew or eBay. Not sure why people think the whole game should be on the disk. I get that it’s nice to have, but when they are constantly being patched it doesn’t matter.
I’m bored of Mario Kart. It really needs an overhaul, maybe a bit more gritty or just something different. So as I’m bored of Mario kart , sonic racing doesn’t stand a chance despite it being a good game. There are just so many good games coming out too and my backlog is already impossible to keep up to date.
@dapinionated ha - id sooner just have working controllers. I mean I’ve still got my original snes and ps1 controllers, both work great. Not too much to ask for.
Maybe concentrate on stick drift. Enjoyed the ps4 & ps5, but I’ll stick to PC if this isn’t resolved for PS6. There should be a compensation scheme for it.
The stick drift killed it for me. I was sick of sending the ps4 ones back to Amazon and Year later I’m still doing it with ps5. Other than that great console.
Not sure why there is such a noise about the single player game. This is a multiplayer game and glad that the emphasis is on that. I’ve not played it as it’s not my type of game, but love hearing people are having a blast.
@Dalamar yes I was in for a switch 2, but that was a deal breaker for me. Its not changed much since Wii u. I’d like to see a grittier version, a full revamp.

Re: Opinion: Sony's Disgraceful Bluepoint Closure Should Concern Every PS Studios Fan
That’s the capper for me. The stick drift issue irked me a lot, but this is the final straw.
