This is easily my most anticipated release of 2023. I've wanted to play Ghost Trick for years (especially after falling in love with Ace Attorney) and being able to both play it on the big screen and in HD? It's genuinely a dream come true, I'm so happy right now.
AND WE GET REMASTERED TRACKS BY BOTH KITAGAWA AND SUGIMORI?! I'M GOING THE WAY OF SISSEL FOLKS SOMEONE SAVE ME.
I swear, it's ALWAYS Capcom who manages to carry these shows. Resident Evil 4 Remake, Street Fighter 6, they are simply incapable of missing as of late. AND LET'S NOT FORGET ABOUT GHOST TRICK PHANTOM DETECTIVE COMING IN SUMMER 2023-
State of Play's seem to range from 'absolute god-sends' to 'damningly mediocre' and tonight's show very much leaned closer to the latter than the former. Nothing I'd call outright bad mind you, just a whole lot of....OK. And having that Suicide Squad reel be the closer? An odd decision for sure.
Then again I got my Cammy Trailer so that automatically makes this a 10/10.
EA are still trying to make people play 2042 huh. Despite the March lineup being pretty meh all things considered, the overall package is pretty solid: Tchia on release date (getting major Stray flashbacks) and the Uncharted Collection are pretty good nabs if you ask me!
Cammy?- sorry, Cammy?- sorry, Cammy?
This was the announcement of the show for me. I've been waiting to see Cammy in-game ever since TGS showed off her artwork and good lord did they not disappoint. Zangief and Lily look cool too, but I'm definitely considering picking Cammy up as a main whenever I get SF6, I adore her new design!
I mean COME ON.
Other than hoping for a game that'll never come, I'm predicting a bunch of oddball indies this time round for both regular PS and VR2. Humanity seems to be something in line for this SoP and I could definitely see some kooky VR games in the style of Job Simultar, Trover Saves the Universe, etc. as well. Looking forward to a cosy night in tonight!
Well you certainly can't say he didn't go out with a bang.
My guess is that he'll either hop on over to another studio entirely (he seems to like doing that based off of his track record) or just full on retire. Regardless of what he chooses, he's a legendary game developer that deserves all the praise he's been given!
The way that headline is structured sounds very passive aggressive (like: GET OUT! REALLY!?!?!) XD
This does sound very interesting though: I've always been a fan of watching licensed horror games on Youtube (too much of a wuss to play them myself) and the movies these could pull from have a ton of potential for interesting gameplay. Colour me intrigued to say the least!
I suppose live service games ultimately depend on whether or not they make a good first impression. There are times where this doesn't matter (see Destiny) but how many live service titles have you seen that completely fizzle out after a month or two due to a lack of marketing, content or both specifically at the start? Roller Champions, Destruction All Stars, Babylon's Fall (....OK tbf there was no saving BF but you know what I mean): all live service titles with either little to no marketing past the reveal that ended up feeling barebones when they eventually released.
Do I think Sony's going to backpedal on their 'bajillion live service games'? HELL NO. But it'll certainly be interesting to see how they go about showing them off in the wake of these shutdowns.
I always imagined Hogwarts Legacy as being a decent to good game with a metric truck ton of controversy and, based on what I've been hearing the past few days....yeah that seems to check out. Not interested in it myself (never been into HP outside of Fantastic Beasts funnily enough) but it's nice to see that it's a good game.

This is literally just Marvel's Avengers but with the Suicide Squad instead good f****** lord.
Re: Wayfinder Finds Its Way to PS5, PS4 with Exclusive Early Access in May
If anyone remembers Dauntless from a while back, that's immediately what came to mind for me when seeing this.
And like Dauntless I'll think it's cool for a few minutes and then completely forget about it again for the rest of my life.

Re: Rumour: Konami to Go Big with Metal Gear Solid 3 Remake, New Castlevania in Coming Months
With Konami, it's very much a 'I'll believe it when I see it' sort of attitude for me.
Would adore a new Castlevania though.
