I'll say this on every blog every time there is an article like this. Police really need to take this stuff seriously. Swatting, harassment, stalking, death threats - does anyone remember the man who died when police murdered him after being given a wrong address during a swatting attempt? I get it would be impossible to track every single person down, but at least be public about how serious it's being taken.

@nomither6 there are a ton of competitors and clones, big named ones too. DBD is the best one though... Not sure why it gets so much hate - it's fun, looks pretty good, great for playing with friends, and constantly updated. If people want perfectly balanced games and no issues whatsoever then they need to reset their expectations

I'm begging PlayStation to give me a reason to buy my first VR kit but it's been radio silence for months

Sony needs a PSVR2 big budget Half Life: Alyx-type release, not a Horizon climbing simulator. I'd love to buy the system but given the price they should be making it unbelievably tempting. Instead it seems like they pumped it out solely for people who enjoy wasting money on novelties

Wasn't Snowrunner recently added?? Come onnn.

Really would like to see more Jaguar and some Jaguar CD titles make a showing (Blue Lightning???). I'm the only person I've ever met who had a Jaguar, let alone one with the CD expansion, and I loved it. Was my console between SNES and the N64, which I got much later.

Kasumi Ninja would be interesting too

@dark_knightmare2 the game was great, better than Skyrim. We all have opinions, you don't have to understand them

I am loving all of these retro collections. Jurassic Park, Atari 50, the Mega Man collections (for like three generations now), the Ninja Turtles one.. Not just good for nostalgia but also for preservations sake.

I was actually changing my mind on buying this - we're having a baby, only have one TV, my girlfriend loves to watch stuff I don't enjoy, literally fulfill every niche reason to justify dropping £200 (a ridiculous sum).

Deal-breaker is the lack of Bluetooth. Zero reason they couldn't allow me to use my existing earbuds beyond idiotic greed. I hope this fails and a second revision with Bluetooth comes out.

Gotta be a fool to pay more for less, and I don't mean that about the physical size.

I really like how the three major fighting game developers seem to all respect each other, and same for the fanbases (I think?). I'm a Mortal Kombat guy but recently platted Tekken 7 or whatever the easy one is.. couldn't believe the last boss was Akuma! Just really cool.

I'm excited for the story mode but I honestly hope there is a proper Konquest mode implemented. The last trilogy showed them go from a basic Krypt to a full movement puzzle adventure mode (albeit basic). Invasions were not enjoyable in MKX if it resembles that... Idk

It's better than I thought. Mindless, extremely cheesy, self aware, and the actors have charisma. Anthony Mackie also looks like he's having the time of his life which adds a ton of charge

wow really adding benefit to the subscription service here

@Flaming_Kaiser what??? I lived in the US back then, did they cut the European ending cutscenes??? They weren't THAT violent.. ..were they?

Man I wish they'd do a proper remaster of Twisted Metal: Black with a platinum. I get that Sony is trying to appeal more to trophy hunters now than in the past, but TM:B is one of the best PS2 games of all time.. with no platinum

The Hitman trilogy are so good. Prime example of a studio passionate about their IP and showing it through their work.

I don't understand how PlayStation thinks demos should be available if you pay for a subscription. Why has there been no major journalist/gaming community outcry over this?

Anyway, I wish I could play these types of games on console but I did The Sims 4 and the controls were awful. Planet Coaster too. Are any of these games pleasant to use a controller with??

I'm thinking they're going to do away with the Krypt and bring in a Konquest mode. Ed Boon teases a lot and doesn't deliver which is kind of nice, keeps the mystique etc, but between MK9 and MK11 you can tell they basically are building significantly each time.

@nessisonett honestly though, the expensive ***** is cosmetics. Every new character that comes out is definitely worth the price, you can tell the live and care that went into them. The other stuff.. pretty obvious it's the parent company overlords

@Dange I am pretty sure it means a 2D plane like the last trilogy was. 3D would be more like Tekken or the PS2-era games.

@JayCee-007 I am very late because I didn't realize you had commented, but I've thought about it more and changed my mind, I'm looking forward to the game. Bungie has consistently designed the best feeling FPS controls I've played, and although the trailer is CGI it's obviously representative of the tone, which I'm completely into

@Americansamurai1 could you imagine a switch version lol the console would probably melt in your hands trying to load into story mode

@JayCee-007 how can you tell that Marathon looked interesting? It told you nothing of the game beyond it being a space shooter lol

The gameplay is okay on the Spider-Man games, the combat really doesn't inspire me despite feeling very fluid, but I'm super excited for the story. MM wasn't great but it was a shorter and smaller can't, but I was actually surprised and impressed at how dark the first one was. Marvel obviously is removing some of the MCU barriers and allowing them to take some creative risks.

Never played the original but downed a couple collosi in this remake on PS4. One of the most beautiful atmospheric games I've ever played.. didn't know about this issue but I'm happy for the patch because I was thinking about picking it up again on PS5! Wish Sony would fund more games like this. Truly art.

As a Mortal Kombat fan since the early 90s, please be true! I love how Netherealm isn't afraid to experiment with the games then keep what works and change what doesn't iteration to iteration. I also hope Boon's teasing of a new Konquest mode is true - the Krypt seemed to be heading in that direction anyway

I hate that developers seem to equate throwing dozens or hundreds of millions of dollars at development with higher chance of success. Maybe it's true and I'm old and dumb, but the PS3 era had really good budget titles. I'm glad THQ Nordic are around - they must be successful considering how many old IPs they're reviving on an obvious budget that are faithfully done, fun, and affordable

@J2theEzzo it's been confirmed in another article that they do not. I recently finished the original FFVII on PS4 and the modifiers there didn't block the trophies either.

Never played the originals but have been itching for some 2D JRPGs. With the FF pixel remasters around the corner and a potential launch date announcement on this I'm going to be in heaven for the rest of the year

@Chaotic_Goat Sony made it very clear and it was widely reported that they do not want to add first party games at launch because it would "de-value" the games, so that's kind of on you for not researching.

That being said - I subscribed for the "retro" games and besides an odd few all they're doing is charging more money for the same games that were on PS Now, with a few decent extras that can be purchased separately. So maybe joke's on me

Imagine a gel-like substance after a year or two of gaming hands..

@NEStalgia what do you mean? It feels very much like another studio's take on Smash Bros.. battle passes are annoying but commonplace unfortunately, just like premium and.. extra premium currencies to unlock skins and characters. Normal for a free to play. What part is mobile that's different from other games with currency and unlockables? League of Legends?

@NEStalgia what are you talking about? It actually plays and runs pretty decently. It also looks pretty good for the type of game it is. Do you want Mortal Kombat graphics?

Mega Man Legacy, full on remake with modern everything.

@TaMpA_bLaCk you're still talking about a modern version of a demo and mixing it up with the marketing jargon being used. In fact, it's probably even more affordable to release a demo now as it's essentially the full game with a timer, right? Back in the day they'd have to essentially make a mini game for people to try since they had no real way to timelock it. Saves carrying forward, trophy unlocks, etc are very much natural enhancements to the modern version of a demo.

@TaMpA_bLaCk the "trials" are an incredible insult to consumers and I'm not sure why people don't push back. Demos are advertising to convince you to purchase a full game. They should be free, not behind a paywall.

I really want to buy this, but the lack of reviews so close to launch tells me that Sony is worried about something with the controller. Will wait until they're a V2 that irons out whatever issues they are

Ugh I was actually going to start Bound by Flame next week. Last month I had just finished Mafia 1 and was ready to move onto Mafia 2. Little extra warning would be nice.

@ThaBEN you didn't buy a game because of its box art? Christ

You've gotta be either crazy or have too much money to buy a video game controller that costs nearly half as much as the console itself, and over 3x the amount of a AAA game that spent years and years in development. Sony has been extremely greedy for the past several years in port much every aspect.

Really wanted retroactively added trophy support but obviously was always unrealistic. However, a big reason Xbox backwards vcompatibility is so amazing is because they were able to tweak a lot of games to really take advantage of the newer console power. If they do that then it's great, otherwise it's a massively missed opportunity
