Theres nothing wromg with just porting a game to be a modern system. I'm honestly sick of "remasters" that completely ruin the art style of the original game.

Thats bad and anti-art. Luckily physical copies still exist. Plenty of Yakuza fans don't like the new changes in this version

It really doesn't matter at all if it still needs servers to play. (The patch servers will probably long outlive the BF6 specific online servers)

@Gamer83 BC is basically all in software for ps5, so taking it away wouldn't save any money unlike say the ps3 or even the Wii (which saved a very small amount just from not having the memory card and controller slots. The Gamecube funtionality is still there and I'm pretty sure it can even still read the discs if you have a softmodded Wii.)

I think if there really is a handheld iteration of ps6, they will probably push that pretty hard in Japan.

@Npc1987 I mean it does kinda suck, but let's be honest here. Most people playing their old console by then are just gonna soft mod it. There will definitely be a way to get around the disc drive online check by doing that.

@SuntannedDuck2 lol yes I know about the Nomad and the PSP technically having video out (the PSP Go had a dock). I don't know what you're talking about with Microsoft though. They've never even had a handheld. Regardless it feels disingenous to pretend like this new Sony handheld isn't happening in response to the Switch. Its like saying the PS Move wasn't a response to the Wii because the Dreamcast had the fishing rod and marca controllers. Come on.

Sony "We don't view Nintendo as a competitor"
Also Sony: "Let's chase and compete with anything Nintendo does thats successful."

@Dman10 Not true and entirely irrelevant to the topic at hand. https://famiboards.com/threads/switch-packaged-games%E2%80%99-physical-to-digital-sales-ratio-was-2-1-in-fy24.11617/

No surprise? I've never even heard of this game before

@Balaam_ I I remember seeing this exact type of talk when Microsoft first dipped their toes into multiplatform support. It feels like everybody always moves the goalpost until you're there and then you realize the signs were there all along.

@Number09 Wait till you hear about how long the ps2 got games. (Well the ps4 is almost there.)

Watching live service game people from the outside looking in is batsh*t insane

@SeaDaVie Doubt they're counting physical copies, which are more popular in Asian markets.

@Balaam_ this soundd like more of a problem with your OCD than it is Sony. Not like they take the platinum away fron you.

@RagnarLothbrok Its literally just a (halve) physical bundle of already released games my dude. Its not eating up any resources for a port of FF13 trilogy

Something like this (if I wanted it), I would just buy it for cheap on sale or something and then just buy the digital games physically elsewhere.

@IntrepidWombat I've heard RE Engine isn't a great engine for more open world titles. Idk how true that it is but it would explain it to a degree

@AhmadSumadi its for the EU when it comes to legislation. Devs have nothing to do with it in this case

@nomither6 fair enough I guess. I do like Unleashed and I do still like Sonic Gens better than Shadow.

@Lowdefal the Modern levels are way better than the Classic levels imo. Classic is fun in Gens but better in like Sonic 2 or Sonic Mania. I do sorta get what you mean, but most of the modern stage layouts wouldn't really work if the stages were entirely 2d. Also the nostalgia doesn't really play a factor for me. I've played Sonic Generations for over 100 hours and its just really fun to me. Shadow Generations has entirely 3d stages (plus some entirely 2d stages) with more 3d platforming if thats what you want though.

@Balaam_ Both Sonic & Shadow Generations are great games. At the very least good. Come on.

@Juanalf the ps3 ports are *****. They should use the DC versions as the base, bringing certain features when from the Gamecube versions when applicable.

In today's age of so many remakes, I actually kind of respect that. Even though I think an Sa1 remake could be pretty cool

@nessisonett nah that would be humorous as well tbh. It might even be more humorous than this comment here

They should do the same for Psychonauts 2

@Orpheus79V Yea that puts it probably the best selling non Pokemon and FFVII JRPG I feel like

7 million for Royal is pretty wild.

And yet... he still looks nothing like Snake.

Baffling the ps2 generated that little with how much it sold

@ThroughTheIris56 Activision greed.

@Member_the_game The skill ceiling is quite high for this game compared to most other kart racers. If you get in to chaining boost drifts it's really fun, but if that's not for you, other kart racers are probably better for you.

All this work by Randy in defending it being $80 and then it ends up being $70.LMAO Some people really don't know when to keep their mouth shut

@Vyse_the_Legend ah yea now I see what you're saying. Yea locking them behind premium makes no sense outside of streamed ps3 games.

@Dman10 rumor iirc is that it will be announced for both but who knows

Man Rockstar's voice actors are always so talkative lol

@Vyse_the_Legend PS classics aren't locked to premium outside of a few third party exceptions (due to those companies specifically it seems) You can buy them on the PS Store

@Oram77 fair point. I'd say Gamecube vs Ps2 and even PSP Vs DS sorta qualify but even the DS and PSP are 20 years old 💀

@Oram77 n64 vs ps1 was pretty darn heated yea. Go back and read what Yamauchi said about the PlayStation lmao

@RadioHedgeFund They said it looks awful, which is perfectly in line to judge based on a trailer. They said nothing about how it plays.

@RadioHedgeFund Look I know people on the internet lack nuance and throw tantrums at the drop of a hat, but like are you not allowed to critique a trailer at all?

@REALAIS American prices. People really need to stop assuming prices match across differeng currencies and countries. Its led to a lot of misinformation recently.

@Toot1st I'm talking about US prices, sorry.

Dude really needs to learn to keep his mouth shut lmao

@belmont ps5 is at least the best higher end console to get atm. Its exclusives line up could definitely be better. But its a fact that its way cheaper than Xbox and has more games overall. PC and Consoles are seperated out enough to have different niches where Xbox Series X and Ps5 are slight variants on the exact same thing.

This is so embarassing for Microsoft recently increasing the price of all of their systems and now Sony has a sale for all of their consoles. I don't mean to console war, but seriously what is the point of an Xbox at this moment in time?

@somnambulance ah ok. As an JRPG and Nintendo lover myself, these few last few years have been decent. But yea for Sony's major first party stuff its been pretty dry aside from Astro Bot . Still need to play FFVII Rebirth.

@somnambulance You keep saying this. What is your personal taste?

@Northern_munkey how many games have you actually tested it on without the internet? Disconnect from the wifi first and then pop the disc in.
