Ah sh*t, here we go again.

Ah yes, all to "protect the children".

British article on a British website by a British writer using a British word in “papped”.

PushSquare is back baby!

@gamer153 no, there shouldn't be a re-review at all.

Great selection as always.

Will be looking to give Football Manager a go for sure, absolutely positive I can do better the Slot.

@ShogunRok You can do articles saying how the game is much better than it's original release, but redoing the review for a game that in many ways is broken and unfinished, is a very bad call imo.

Great that the developer is pumping out fixes and updates quickly, but that doesn't justify that they purposely released this despite knowing the issues already.

You didn't go back and re-review Cyberpunk (PS5 version doesn't count), why should this be any different.

And people say Sony chasing a live service game is ridiculous...

@Stocksy yeah I think you've entirely missed my point twice.

But that's fine, I wish we live in the world you're describing. Unfortunately it's imaginary and won't ever exist.

@Stocksy at what point of my comment was I justifying any of it?

I was simply saying that crunch in one industry isn't a unique thing, it happens all over the world and we aren't rewarded as significantly.

The pay I received at the water company was poor and not even close to being worth the stress of those deadlines I mentioned, not to mention the dreadful management and countless other issues.

Nobody is justifying poor company practices, but to continue reporting on crunch like it's unique to just video games, while ignoring the clear difference in reward from said crunch, is arguing in a vacuum.

And that's not a dig a PushSquare for reporting on it, it's their job. But this conversation is just getting really old and its coming from a place of ignorance.

I'm tired of this constantly coming up like crunch isn't a thing inside and out of the gaming industry.

They make it seem like they don't get huge bonuses when the game drops, or that they're not getting paid great salaries, or compensating overtime.

I worked for a water utility company in the UK who had ridiculous internal deadlines everyday that influenced external bonuses for the company. If you missed these deadlines, the company risked fines from OFWAT in the tens of millions and would just lay off it's staff.

Anyone working in the real world knows this is just life.

@Llamageddon this game always looked too good to be true imo.

I never understood why PushSquare was hyping it so much.

It''s funny cause these games are more real that Artemis actually going to space.

I think the highlight around the 100% game looks daft in all honesty, at least from the image above.

It would be cool if the background had a different colour, or maybe gets filled with some art from the game once at 100%/Platinum, to make it stand out significantly amongst the rest.

I like the trophy system as it is personally, and use PSN Profiles for anything more nitty gritty.

pretends to be shocked

Always have to take these games with a pinch as they come across too good to be true.

The Day Before being the last notable example that looked great and completely bottled it.

Another massively overblown conversation to drive hate towards the brand.

It's a voluntary, opt-in competition - nobody is forcing you into it.

Embarrasing.

I think people really have no idea how much information very dangerous companies already have on them.

Literally one person is going to get this opportunity so this is being greatly blown out of proportion.

It's already been mentioned about 2K and face scans, this is just the next level. And ultimately, if you care that much, then you'll read the T's & C's or even pay for a lawyer if you win to make sure they don't do anything you aren't happy with.

Each to their own I guess.

@Atreus97 apparently I woke up illiterate today.

My apologies sir, you are indeed very correct in your take.

Ngl, I don't like the look of this at all.

DriveClub redeemed itself so significantly after launch.

Genuinely one of the best games on PS4.

His timeline doesn't add up.

He said he was working on it from 2016, but the pandemic and increased funding would only come in late 2020/2021.

"Sony decided to put a lot of money into online gaming like everyone else was. That's part of why The Last of Us Multiplayer got funding, we got off the ground and we made a lot of progress, and the game was doing really, really well internally".

So for 4/5 years there was no funding?

A UK based article in £££'s about price increases on PushSquare?!

If you really thought they'd stick to what they said, you're an idiot.

Honestly surprised it took this long, I won't be buying the pack but for those who will, enjoy I guess.

@Boomers-r-us why couldn't it have been?

I bet The Last of Us Online was 'one helluva of a game', but different circumstances resulted in its cancellation.

What an oddly misinformed comment you have made 🤔

Should also stop using Metacritic.

Use Opencritic.

I stand by this being a good entry in the franchise tbh.

Having Battlefield 4 from 2014 and Black Ops 3 in 2015 alongside Hardline presented 3 solid multiplayer games with different spins.

We ate well that year but entitled, undeserving cry babies will say otherwise.

@Bracing_space I have way more options than just these two.

A-Z, Z-A, Price low to high, Price high to low, Most Downloaded, Best Selling, Release old to new, Release New to Old and Default.

And then a ton of filters to go with it.

Literally no idea what you and the people who liked your comment are talking about tbh.

@Oram77 tbf there is no way MAPPA should take on anymore properties. Already got too many and leaving lots unfinished, plus apparent sh*tty working conditions.

Hopefully it’s the real Jim Carrey and not whatever that impersonator was 😂

Jokes aside (maybe not 😬), can’t wait for Sonic 4.

@get2sammyb probs should just be under the PC tags you guys have, not PS5.

@LowDefAl disc? What’s that?

I’ve been digital for so long I never even thought about the disc size 😭

Genuinely one of my favourite devices, such a solid bit of kit.

I think some further reporting into the issue of "storage limits" may be required here, because wtf do that mean?

Definitely changes things.

All the games that I want are on my wishlist, and when I get notification that they are on sale, I check my price and also the general 'online signed out' prices too.

Moving forward it'll significantly change my spending, especially if we're talking double digit differences in pricing.

Since when do we believe anything that Xbox says, have we forgot about this entire console generation?

The two companies will operate independently of each other. PlayStation is no longer in direct competition of Xbox, certainly not with their overly expensive PC box their creating.

PS6 will drop when Sony/PlayStation thinks it's best for them, Xbox can do as they please because these are two different markets now.

My Portal experience has been perfect from day 1, I really don't understand the hate.

Oh no, the 20 people who were going to buy it on PC are taking a stand.

This could bankrupt PlayStation! Quick, greenlight more live service games!

@Boxmonkey i'm going off the information consistently being provided by Moore's Law and how Sony have bought large amounts of stock in advance across all components, most importantly the RAM.

Considering his track record, who are we as nobodies to question with zero resources or insider info ourselves?

@Boxmonkey Moore's Law has already said he expects it to be same price that PS5 launched at - even Pro price match would be lower that £800.

I think predicating anything over £700 is ridiculous tbh.

Tbf Jaffe also said the same about the sex scenes and named the women who worked on it.

Though I guess Jaffe only gets reported on when it's negative :/

@LogicStrikesAgain making an article basically saying nothing while taking jabs about Forza gameplay basically showing nothing.

If you can’t see the irony then i’m afraid it’s too late for you and those who liked your comment.

Such an ironic article, complains about something "so tame", yet proceeds to write and publish a 223 word piece about it 😂

IGN with the tame video 🤝🏻 PushSquare with the hypocrisy

@RadioHedgeFund ain't nobody saying "sarnies" within 100 miles mate - it's full "sandwich" or where I am it's "butties" 😂

@LiamCroft I mean yes the image is “real” as it exists.

But is it actually from the show or a mock up/concept?

We’ll revisit in a few days

@LiamCroft the image is fake btw, the guy playing Kratos pretty much confirmed it.

I love the second paragraph of defending Grubb as a leaker cause you know everyone hates him and he's wrong more than right - Mr Shotgun Blast Predictions 😂

Something isn’t right with the way this was announced.

Skipped State of Play only to drop a 5 second trailer of nothing with a date?

A distraction from Bluepoint maybe?

@get2sammyb i'm not tbh. I find it difficult to get into side scrollers in general mainly because i'm just comically bad at them.

The only ones i've really enjoyed was Strider (2014) and Velocity 2X (one of my all time favourite game weirdly).

I much prefer more chilled, story centric side scrollers like Gris and Oxenfree.

This definitely isn't for me but I own every Lillymo game and will always support anything LSM.

Colin noted it'll only be £10 too.

Very happy with this.

Platinumed EA Sports PGA Tour from PSPlus Extra over the course of 3 months, great in-between/short play game.

The 2K versions are always solid and same vibe too so looking forward to this.
