Might pick it up, during a sale. At the moment, I'm just bored to death by cinematic games. So many great proper video GAMES, coming out, that I rather put my money on.
Make something brand new, and don't make it yet another cinematic 3rd person game. And how about making some AA games? That way they could make more than one game, each generation, and also afford to take some risks again.
I don't want another God of War, unless it's a return to the old-school mayhem, like the original trilogy.

From Legend of Zelda, to Zelda 2: Adventures of Link.
From Castlevania Rondo of Blood, to Symphony of the Night.
Doom 2, to Doom 3.
Parasite Eve, to Parasite Eve 2.
Resident Evil 3, to Resident Evil 4.
Sadly not excited at all. I'm just burned out on any kind of open world games now. Might give it a try in a couple of years, when (if) my interest in the genre is re-ignited again.
So just more upgrades to the AI upscaler then? We really are getting diminishing returns now.
We'll never gonna see huge leaps in graphics, like between older generations again, no matter how much the companies brags about the "next gen revolution".
Same with new GPU:s, were the leap in performance, among the high end cards, becomes less every generation now, with more focus on AI upscaling and framegen.
The last truly mindblowing upgrade, for me, was when we went from PS2/Xbox to PS3/360 generation.
And that's why my excitement for PS6, is pretty much zero, because it will just be more of the same, just a little bit prettier.
Why is it that men, can't be attracted to the woman body anymore, without being called a creep? But if a woman says the same thing about men, then that perfectly fine. Talk about double standards...
Just give us emulated PS3 games already.
PS3 isn't hard to emulate anymore, and it's great being able to unlock the framerates and play them rendered at higher resolutions.
Playing Resistance and Killzone 2 emulated on PC, at 1440p and 60fps, is fantastic. Feels like remasters.
The PS5 are strong enough. So what are they waiting for?
Took a look at the trailer, before I read the article, and couldn't see where Ai was used.
If I didn't read about the leafs, I wouldn't have noticed it. Would have been much worse if all the characters etc, was made by Ai, with 6 finger hands and three ears π
Still today, Half Life: Alyx and Stormlands on PC, and Astrobot on PSVR1, is the best experiences I've had in VR. Sadly those AAA days of VR seems to be dead and gone now. I had some hopes about Horizon on PSVR2, but it mostly felt like a tech demo, and hated being locked inside a circle, everytime you got into combat.
I may play VR for a week or two, 2-3 times a year, but that's about it. The novelty and wow factor, is long gone, as you quickly notice the clunky controls and poor gameplay, in 95 % of the VR game out there.
But I will never forget the experience, when I got my HTC Vive, back in 2016. That wow factor, was on the same level, as when I discovered videogames, as a kid, during the Atari2600 era.
I would rather see a brand new story. If they're just gonna follow the story in the game, beat for beat, then I'm not interested. But if they put a twist on everything, and it goes in a different direction, then sure.
I just hope they give James more of a personality in the movie, as he is kinda dull and boring, in the game.
I just don't want a portable, that plays PS5 and future PS6 games, in heavily downscaled versions, to be able to run. I want it to have exclusive games, just like PSP and Vita had.
So he doesn't want it to be mainstream, yet he used Hollywood actors, uses a expensive AAA budget, and releases it on a mainstream console?
So why didn't he make a indie game, and release it on Evercade instead?
Can't stand this guy. I enjoyed his early games, but things started to crash and burn (for ME) after MGS3.
Or maybe I just got older, and can't handle his weird and forced humor/craziness anymore?
Imagine this guy, and Tarantino, in the same room. So much ego, that time and space implodes.
Final Fantasy is not what it used to be. I enjoyed 16, but I can understand why most didn't. The excessive button mashing, did get boring at times. Especially during some bossbattles that went on forever.
FF7 Rebirth, was extremely boring and padded. Another disappointment, which didn't help the franchise one bit.
They need to return to proper turn-based gameplay again.
Yeah...we'll see about that.
Always take these comments from the devs, with a pinch of salt.
This won't be ready until around the launch of the PS6. So I'm expecting another crossgen game, where the game can barely run on the base PS5, work okey on the Pro, but not really shine, until playing on the PS6 and PC
After all these promises from AAA devs through the years, and all the downgrades, you would think that people would be less gullible today. Guess not π
Mario Kart World and Fast Fusion, looks great on my 120 inch projected screen and 4K Oled, just like my PS5 and PC games. I even have a great time playing retro consoles on the same screens. Sooo...
PS6, will be the first PS console, that I won't buy on launch. I'll probably wait a couple of years, and see how the generation plays out, when it comes to first party games. The few NATIVE Sony games for the PS5, that I enjoyed this generation, I can count on one hand...

Re: Sony Lifts Region Locks on Its PC Games, Including Helldivers 2, The Last of Us, More

That's more than 1%.

Locking out regions, from playing the games, was a stupid decision to begin with.
