Imagine how much it would have sold without the boycott!

I can't imagine Nintendo paid for 26 days of exclusivity?

@bindiana Thanks for the tip. It will definitely be worth it at that price.

With around a quarter of a billion PS4 and Switch consoles sold you can see why they would want cash from their owners.

@Reeneman Are you new to social media? It is predominantly just abuse and bs no matter the topic. The days of the net just being cute cats and people bumping uglies are long gone.

I assume this kind of thing was in the T&Cs you probably had to agree to when you first started the game.

I have visions of the event and it is just a solitary booth with a guy called Dave just hoping for death to consume him.

@NomNom @thefourfoldroot1 Since a couple of generations ago anything can be possible. I assumed Bayonetta would be multiplatform and that ended up a Nintendo exclusive. FFXV was on Xbox so you assume XVI would be but it isn't. At least no one bought a PS5 for Redfall.

There have been console exclusives since the 80s so not sure why it would change now. It is annoying if you don't have multiple consoles but you know going in for a console that it won't get every game released for it.

I think they shouldn't even bother checking the dialogue that the AI spits out for these NPCs so we can all have a giggle at random stuff they say when they release a game. Let the fans do the checking after release.

@JaphyRider Now that show is a blast from the past.

@Soulless666 Probably didn't even play the game and gave it a one just because they can and that in itself it gets them a little excited. I have yet to play the game so will not pass judgment but looking at a trailer I can already see that it is above a 1 and I am terrible at these Soulslikes.

I'd like to see the people who gave it a 1 their written review justifying why they gave it that score.

Maybe people are getting the games now as they are watching the show and feel they would rather be playing the games? The show is OK but isn't the best thing since sliced bread that the internet seems to think it is. Just my opinion of course.

I kind of like the idea as when you get close to the end you can start planning on what to play next as the end looms on your current game.

I can just imagine in a couple of years Phil asking how the game runs on PS5 and when the team says it runs perfectly he asks them to program a bug into the last level.

I see someone thinks the game belongs in the same pot as Superman 64

I paid less than the annual pass for PS Plus Premium for a year during a sale last year! You've got to have a pinball addiction to pay that kind of money for way less pinball tables than choice of games on Premium. Not even a PSVR2 version makes that seem worth it.

He's definitely a better basketball player than limited edition console and controller designer!

Always online games are a perfect fit for subscription services. You can't feel cheated when it leaves the service when it no longer works anymore.

I hope the deal doesn't go through and Microsoft decide to chuck a load of money at them to just get COD on Game Pass for a couple of years and off PlayStation completely so they can waste their money and find out that people will not be swapping their PS for an Xbox for one game.

If they give it away in the west I can't imagine they will localise it so it.

Before the embargo lifted you couldn't even confirm what the box was made of. There were all sorts of rumours going about that it was made from the frozen tears (of joy) of Jim Ryan.

I am more concerned that 12% of PlayStation owners bought one for the availability of no games. Maybe they bought the PS5 as a conversation piece or maybe to scalp and now stock is high and they have stitched themselves up?

Can't see this doing that well. The Mario Kart version didn't exactly set the world alight even being the "sequel" to one of the best selling games of all time. Or maybe the PlayStation market is where this gimmick will really shine.

A certain Queen song now springs to mind and it isn't Bohemian Rhapsody.

After seeing another one bite the dust, I assume Sony are going all in on the live service with a lot of games planned as they know not all will succeed but hoping at least one does so it will pay for all the failures and then some.

I'll wait for a sale. I got a regular controller and Horizon Forbidden West for £45 before Xmas which makes the cost of this seem even more ridiculous.

They've got to do the Part 2 remake for PS5 ready for season 2 of the TV show and then Sony will push for another game for the pennies unless the multiplayer is a cash cow live service game.

@Mikey856 Maybe they could do tit for tat? Sony let Microsoft have ABK and Sony get Rockstar. It would be fun to watch the fallout on that one.

Surely this is what Sony have been hoping for all along so they would be ready by now? Or is this just a delaying tactic as they know it will go through so they are dragging it out as long as possible?

The tweet implies that that have known for a while unless they watch Top Gun on a daily basis.

Considering how one developer recently complained about trophies and achievements taking up developer resources, trophies for these old classics is a bonus for anyone that is interested in collecting them.

@Bez87 It hits Sky live at 2am and then you can download it after that in 4k.
Without deals Sky, NOW TV and their terrible Sky Glass are not good value. I'll be cancelling after my current deal runs out, conveniently after The Last of Us finishes, unless they give me another stupidly good deal.

@Bez87 Game or Thrones is available in UHD on Sky so assume The Last of Us will be the same? Or is their UHD not 4K?

Of course it is. Which company doesn't like more money? I would be very surprised if this is a free upgrade.

It would be more newsworthy if the heads of all the big games companies weren't on there with him. Even Bobby Kotick is still there after all that controversy so seems like it is hard to get kicked off the list.

Fair play to anyone who has the time to play and complete all 30 of these.

It's not the most eye-catching design ever. Not nearly as obvious as the PS4 design.

Looking forward to EA Bally McFootball being number one next Christmas.

How dare they not give me a free upgrade for a game they gave me free last year. This is an outrage. I will burn all my PlayStation paraphernalia right now and I'll put in a good word for Microsoft so they can stop COD on PlayStation.
Just for clarification, this is my terrible attempt at sarcasm although I do hold a lot of sway to help nudge the Microsoft/Activision Blizzard deal over the line if I so choose.
(Note that I hold little sway about what I do on a daily basis, never mind what large corporations can do.)

I don't think this deal will impact PS5 as I think a lot of PS owners only play COD and probably some FTP titles and sports and the odd other title so Game Pass doesn't really make sense to them but it's the PS6 that Sony is worried about if they lose the title. Although I hope that in 10 years we will have the next big thing.

If that was an attempt to drum up interest, it failed for me. The only thing I am now interested in is what the hell happened to Michael Madsen.

It was 15% off the £75 the other day on Amazon so I picked it up and added another year to Premium. The Premium additions are generally lacklustre but for £63.68 for a year it would be rude not to.

@EquiinoxGII Thanks for that deal. I was looking for a black Dualsense and had yet to get HFW. For £45 it would be rude not to.

Does the person who gave it a 1 want to sell me their copy for £20?

@Jeanhenry A bit excessive but I get your point. I find that the footage my memory captures is a lot better than what you get on a phone.

I am still stuck on Ascension before getting stuck into God of War on PS4. This will be on sale by the time I get to it in a year or two. Looking forward to being late to the party.

Maybe they are hoping for some double dipping from trophy hunters and people with more money than sense.

I have an urge to play Fantavision but can't think why.
