@NoCode23 It's because of licensing. All of these attach-on designs are required to pay a sum to license from a company which I regard as Patent Trolls named Game Vice. The same applies with the 'Elite' controllers with extra paddles or buttons on the back, where one of the reasons why they cost so much is because the company SCUF patented the back-paddle/button design so everyone who wants to create one needs to pay a hefty licensing fee.

These guys could have been a PlayStation Studio, but they only have themselves to blame for the flop that was The Order 1886. Could have been anw amazing game, but truly had some questionable design choices.

PSVR2 will likely not be cheap.

Have this on my Quest 2. Nice game. Agree that the customer interaction is rather lacking, but that’s the thing with most VR games, it’s always focused on one single gameplay element, hence why people always say the games always feel like demoes

@Nem You tried the new Xbox D-Pad? It's not bad. A little different, but once you get use to it, it's quite comfortable and plays well with fighting games.

I think only 2 buttons at the rear when other pro controllers have 4 is a fair criticism. And honestly, I wish rather than simple remaps these extra buttons can also serve as extra inputs and be called R4 L4. All connsole games should give the players the option to rebind their keys.

Just imagine if Dreams had multiplayer and you could see other players roaming around inside these events and festivals. Such a lost opportunity.

Lmao~ my goodness this looks so damn bad. It's like one of those cheap asset flip games you commonly see on Steam.

If Sony are going to be cheap skates then they might as well merge PLUS and NOW together. It would have the added benefit of less naming confusion for the general public too. Just look at Microsoft and their Xbox names: Game Pass, Games with Gold, Xbox Live, Xbox Series X, Series S, One S, One X etc. It's downright ridiculous and super confusing, especially for people who are just casual gamers. Less names the better, and PS Plus by now is known to everyone, so I'm all for Sony ditching PS NOW and merging into it. They can put the NOW library into the current PS collection. And what's more? Xbox Live Gold these days have all but gone to sh*t because of Game Pass. It'd be wise for Sony to continue buffing the value to PS Plus to counter MS where it hurts.

@playstation1995 It's good, but I'd rate Slay the Spire above Darkest Dungeon.

@TheAdza they also did crack down 3, which was garbage. Then there is the buggy glitchy mess that was LBP3. They’re a mediocre studio at best. Not worth purchasing

Personally I see some form of merger or acquisition of Kadokawa by Sony. Kadokawa’S businesses aligns with Sony’s. If they do that they can further strike a deal with Bandai to own the Dark Souls And Elden Ring IP

If PlayStation ever go bust you can guarantee Apple will be the first in line to make an offer to buy it.

Tbh I’m disappointed. I was hoping there’d be some sort of upscaling tech like NVidia’s DLSS 2.0 developed by Sony and AMD for the console. With all the hype talk about the groundbreaking architecture and all, these games can still only do 4K 30FPS. What a shame.

Knowing Ubisoft, they will come up with decent interesting concepts and ideas in game play mechanics, but some how half a*se them and ruin it somehow with silly micro transactions.

Looks great. Don't understand the complaint. Black and white plays well with almost any colour, and blue not only is trademark to PlayStation but also it's the most popular colour in the world.

I think because of the Marvel movie franchise since Disney took over, combined with recent Batman Arkham and Spider-Man game, people are becoming spoiled and forgetting that 90% of super hero games have always been low quality money cash grabs. This Crystal Dynamics Marvel Avengers game is no different - made purely to ride on the hype train of the successful Marvel movie franchise, striking while the iron is hot. It clearly lacks any sort of depth, made only to appeal to general mass audience of all ages.

Will we ever in our lifetime get an actual story focused AAA Gundam game that isn’t Bandai Namco low budget arcade trash?

Such a chonky and snug looking controller. Should feel great in hands, especially with all those cool haptics

The game looks incredibly lively. Everything moves. It's so impressive when Jin moves walks to that shop to upgrade. This game is going to be quite the spectacle on the big screens. Looking forward to it.

Tbh I've been following Scorn for quite some time. Am huge fan of Beksinkski and Giger, so I'm pretty salty to learn that it is ending up being exclusive to the Xbox. Hopefully the exclusivity is timed.

Tbh I'm just really excited to be able to play Minecraft with raytracing lol.

My personal bet is that Gran Turismo 7 will feature an open world mode of sorts with GT Sport elements.

Not surprised. Granblue is absolute massive in Asia. But what I like about it the most is the artwork and character designs by Hideo Minaba. It's remarkable. The small roster is unfortunate though... there supposed to be tons of character in Granblue, indicating there's going to be a whole lot of paid character DLC upcoming for this. Pretty blatant Money sucking business strategy if you ask me.

Bayonetta 1 > Bayonetta 2. Fight me.

Lol the PC Master race would go absolute bonkers and revolt if this is true. But this would make an extremely interesting purchase I must say, as western focused FPS shooters and RPGs such as Skyrim is what's lacking when it comes to PlayStation's first party line up. Since MS have Obsidian and Inxile, I wouldn't mind Sony looking into something like Larian Studio as well.

I mean... Isn't this stating the obvious? PlayStation is a successful global brand which sells exceptionally well across all of Europe, UK, Asia, Japan, US, Australia and the Middle East. While the Xbox only sells well in the US, and is almost non-existent in Asia and Japan.

Basically if these games were Nintendo titles they’d be treated and celebrated as all time great classic games. On Sony’s hand they become completely neglected indie trash

Damn this is a huge surprise.

These must sell pretty well for them to keep introducing new models. I'd love to grab one but it's a little too expensive. Also from the specifications it doesn't list Gyro, which makes it useless for games such as Dreams.

Really looking to find out more on the game play mechanics, especially the combat. I'm hoping there's going to be quite a bit of depth to it.

Japan Studio should hire her to work on a new Siren project. Based on her resume she excels very much in atmosphere and environmental designs.

I was waiting of the word “souls” as I read through the review and was not disappointed.

I've never played any of the Resistances, but just by going through the internet, reading the comments and reviews, the reception of the series seems to be pretty up and down. People's opinion swayed from either hating it or loving it. Were those games really that good? I ask also because like Killzone, it never seemed to have reached the status of the likes of Gears of War and Halo on Xbox as widely celebrated, staple FPS shooters.

Really looking forward to TGS. There should be new footages or even an release date announcement for Gran Blue Fantasy

O God... Cloud does not age well

Bottom line is Sony departments need to work together better. Not only should Plus add value to its service by adding access to PS Now, but also have some exclusive to services like Funimation etc. Sony TV division should be working with the Gaming arm to capitalise on this 36 million subscriber.

sounds like most of PSVR Games mostly reads: 10/10 is not for tracking issues

Should get some make up to cover up some of that bum chin.

I don't care what power they bring. MS makes poor quality console hardware = FACT. Xbox controllers screams cheap thin plastic, echoes with every button presses and squeakiness of springs with every turn of the analogue stick. The Elite controllers are even worse, for 200US they are extremely prone to breaking. Seriously and people question why Xbox can't sell well outside of the US, because besides the lack of damn games, people from Europe and Asia actually recognize quality craftsmanship when they see one.

You gotta give it to Disney. I always thought Star Wars was going to die out eventually when the older 80's and 90's fan base die off. But it has done brilliant to capture the modern generation too.

@HungryWolf I'd be interested too. They would have to fix the camera and improve the melee combat dramatically to make it work though.

This is probably the best looking anime style game I've ever seen, right up there with Gravity Rush.

Disney and Apple will fight to purchase the PlayStation business one day.

If they nail down the story telling this game is going to do very well despite the obvious short comings with the animations and AI. Would love to see a sequel for Days Gone. A game with such a system have heaps of room for improvement with better hardware.

@get2sammyb Going to be even more amazing once Dreams release on PS5. The thermometer capacity will increase tenfold with the more powerful hardware, combined with Media Molecule's continue improvement in optimization.

There's something really funny about this, it's like a huge "F you" to Nintendo.

I'm just going to judge Harry on this comment alone, but I actually sorta agree with him. I liked what China did with their change in gaming regulation recently - restrict video game time of kids under 12 to just an hour a day from 8:00am to 9:00pm, and 2 hours a day if you're 13-18. It would be difficult however for the West to implement such a system, as China relies on police database and facial recognition.

@ResidentEvil2 Were you just too scared? Because the VR implementation was exceptional. If not I imagine your complaint is either that of the usual poor resolution, small FOV, ergonomics, too much wires, poor control methods, inaccurate tracking, form factor etc. which are obvious flaws which can be fixed in the near future as technology and hardware continue to advance. Potential of VR is undeniable.

It's a very good game. I enjoyed my play-through of first and second, completed all the DLCs and all but I never felt it was an instant classic like most claim it to be. Just didn't fully strike a chord with me I guess.
