I had thought they, WayForward, were actually developing a game based on the RWBY franchise. I wonder if that is still in development and just was not ready to be shown.

Regarding River City Girls.......welcome news, very happy it is getting a sequel.

Finally, was patiently waiting for a PSN release and my patience has paid off. Excited to give this a try.

Identity politics are definitely at play here. Will be a pass from me sorry.

Huge fan of the original. Really amazing 2-D souls like. When i saw the trailer i was filled with joy. Day one buy for me.

To me, the most important aspect is the relationship and trust that Sony will develop with these "second-party" studios. Sony will trust these studios to develop a project they are passionate about and will support it, while the developer will trust Sony to give them the platform to flesh out their ideas and the user base to make the project a success.

Sony and Nintendo platforms are a definite. That is where it's audience is.

Thank you Guerilla. Thank you Sony. Day one buy.

Best of luck to them. Quite a lofty goal but they have an amazing platform to build on. If they do things correctly I can see it happening.

I am thinking of subscribing myself to see if I like it. Will probably add to that number going forward 😊

Grateful for Virtua Fighter. Please give it a try. 🙂

Contributed one game, Valkyria Revolution, and two trophies from said game. Was the best I could do with my time constraints but still happy to receive the theme.

@LiamCroft Lol 😂.

Unleash the Kraken!

@SlySnake0407 I have never played a game from them before, so this will be my first, and also my first rouge game. I hope to understand the concept after playing it.

Truth be told, i would love for transistor to go on sale on PSN. That is the game from Supergiant that really intrigues me.

Gabe Newell, i believe, has never had anything positive to say about Sony, but hopefully he is starting to change his mind.

Just signed up, I will do my best to contribute to the goals set before us all.

Amazing series that will no doubt be missed in the PlayStation ecosystem. I wish Arkane the best and I hope they make another Dishonored game.

@Col_McCafferty I actually think it would be a good idea for Sony to release their own launcher on PC, if of course, they were to release their games on PC. Cut out the middleman as it were. However, this is just a thought, not exactly sure if it would work just think it is a good idea.

I plan on buying it for the fiver, however, i do not own the fiver yet. Once i do, it will be one of the first games i purchase for said console.

Fantastic news. Only thing now is finding the fiver to take advantage of this 😆

That revenue is about to go higher now that i am part of the all-digital group 😆.

Pretty nice. On a personal level i am completely satisfied with 60 fps, so it really does not bother me too much that PS5 BC cannot do more on frame rate for older titles. Save 120fps or better for the newer titles.

@hypnotoad lol good spot that.

I think most people will agree that it is completely logical and fair, what Sony is doing here, without the need for one to have a business degree or be business adept. It is just common business sense, these companies exist to make money after all.

Word of mouth will help this game achieve the success it deserves.

This might be controversial, especially given the issue of pricing. I have never bought a Housemarque game at launch, and thus feel responsible for the comment they made a few years ago about arcade games being dead. I have always bought their games when on sale because I am always late to the party, but Housemarque games have never disappointed me. Nex Machina, for example, is an amazing experience and so is Matterfall.

Here is the controversy, i do not own a PS5, but i will buy this game at the asking price, and at launch because I am not that bothered by it, eventhough i understand the concerns about pricing from gamers, but I am also buying it as a way of saying thanks to Housemarque for their past games. They deserve all the support that will be coming their way, and i hope this game can be a great starting point for them as they increase their brand awareness and status within the industry.

Best of luck to them in the future and i hope the people who play this game on the PS5 enjoy it. As for me, it will be in my library until i join the PS5 army.

Love this news. Nioh ❤️. I am so happy because hopefully we can get more Nioh in the future. My favorite new IP of the PS4 era.

Well done Sony and PlayStation. Wish you continued success.

If i do not buy Samurai Warriors IV soon, I will wait and this will be my first Samurai Warriors game. I have been in a samurai itch, if you will, ever since Nioh, which i started playing In March of last year and still putting gameplay hours into it.

Looking forward to it.

Anxious to find out what game this is, more specifically, its genre. I can assume it will probably be a FPS given the talent at hand but it could also not be. Hopefully we find out more sooner rather than later.

Brilliant news. I cannot wait. I have been a fan of the series since i played justice for all on the nintendo ds. Now to be able to finally play these is amazing news.

Excellent news, but this is just the beginning. We all know the PS3 is the so called "ugly duckling" of the PS family (given how it is the only console to not cross 100 million units sold worldwide), but the PSN started on said console. If Sony is finding it difficult to keep it alive due to technological reasons etc., they must find a way to integrate it into more modern technologies. But removing it should never be an option.

While he makes a valid point, actually more than valid, it is completely true from the perspective of game development, the way he delivers this message is completely wrong and rude.

I am of the opinion that game development costs need to be scaled back for the majority of developers. Most gamers cannot justify the recent price increase, so developers must scale back development. I imagine most gamers would be happy with game experiences not exceeding a particular time frame, that way they can finish the game.

But this is just my opinion.

Well done to PlayStation and Sony. I hope this success keeps getting better for them as we move on from this pandemic and hopefully, hopefully, the unit is easier to obtain for those who have been trying for months. Cannot wait to get one myself.

The app is great. PlayStation has done a great job with it, integrating a lot of important features into one app. Really enjoy using it.

I have two copies of the game already, one for PS3 the other for PS4. I would not consider a PS5 version. However, if i saw it for $5 U.S. dollars or less, i would buy it.

Daisuke Ishiwatari is amazing! That is all.

@Shred @BloodNinja I was about to write Wushu, which is basically chinese kung fu and the one most of us in the west, i believe, are familiar with. However, that would've been pure speculation on my part.

What are the chances Astro Bot Rescue Mission will be playable on PlayStation VR II, or any of these VR games? I do not own a PS4 VR and do not plan to, however, PlayStation VR II has me intrigued and would not mind playing Astro Bot Rescue Mission there.

Still have my copy brand new and sealed, since release if I remember correctly. I promise I will get to it eventually. This year hopefully.

I like it that they give options, so the consumer can choose which is their preference. I know, or rather, have read articles that state that developers always prefer resolution over frames. That is what they prioritize during development, to an extent. As one who is developer first, I respect that, and will always continue to support developer preference.

However, me personally, I will always choose frames over resolution. So when a developer gives me an option, a choice on which I would like to prioritize, frames or resolution, I am always thankful for that and i hope this continues throughout the generation that way both parties win, developers and consumers.

From a personal perspective this is a very exciting move and one that makes sense. As a fighting game connoisseur it is also a good fit. For years Sony has seemed as the de facto FGC platform, along with the growing PC market too.

Really excited for what the future holds. I was actually going to go to EVO last year to compete in SC VI but Covid-19 happened.

Excellent. Have been wanting to try the game out, especially after all the praise it receives, rightfully so. I will be getting the PS IV version since I do not own the V yet, and will not be owning one for a good while.

@Medic_Alert That has always been a shame to know. I adored the Dishonored franchise and am sad to see it go away, but business is business no need to moan. I do wish Arkane well in it's future endeavors, that is the studio that will be missed the most in the Microsoft acquisition, in my opinion.

But you are right their games never lit up the sales chart, and that was not due to their quality, people just where never interested for some reason. Which is why you always hear the argument that most Bethesda games do not sell. It is partially true, and from a fan of Arkane it was always sad to know of this.

Still, really happy Bethesda kept supporting the studio and franchise and allowed them to make three games in the series regardless of sales numbers.

Amazing game. I first played it and the first God of War on the PS3 with the God of War collection. These are a few of the games i actually achieved a platinum throphy (not a trophy hunter my any means).

I still have to get around to God of War (PS4). I have it still sealed, along with Bloodborne and so many many more. I hate having the money to buy games but not the time 😠

No rush from me to get one but if by some miracle i happen to get an opportunity to get one it will be from the PlayStation direct website.

Dishonored, that is all. Arkane are a great developer and I wish them the best.

Nioh ❤️. The game that made me understand the "souls" genre and in turn made me addicted to it. I hope for a long and and successful continuation of the series.

Did my part. I always buy Vanillaware games day one. A studios so unique and talented makes me so happy to hear about the milestone..

I have been quite glued to the screen reading everyone's comments and i have to say I love that passion that has been shown from both sides. Say what you will about console wars and fanboyism, but one can clearly see that there is an inner fanboy in all of us, whether you would like to admit it or not. We all have a preference in which one of these two companies we want to see succeed and it is that passion that you have for said company, whichever it may be, that drives these companies to compete for your money and time. It has been quite entertaining and enlightening reading these comments because you can clearly see which person sides with whom.

Congratulations to Microsoft for the successful acquisition. They are providing their loyal fan base with content that will make them happy to be a supporter of Microsoft. It is now up to Sony to determine what logical step is required to not only combat the opposition, but keep their own loyal fan base happy.

Granted they do not have to do much because of how well they have done for the past seven years and how well they still doing. Whether you want to admit it or not Sony, with the PlayStation brand, is the mecca of gaming, have been for the past two decades but it would not hurt for them to do something huge to keep driving this point across to the masses. Not sure if an acquisition as ambitious as this one is imminent or needed, but I will look on with tremendous interest.

@BloodNinja On base PS4 i am not sure. I own a PS4 Pro and it ran flawless for me. The bugs and issues many people write about experiencing I, personally, could not relate to them because I did not encounter any during my playthrough. I went through the game twice.

I played it back in November as well when the physical edition was released so not that long ago.
