This 'always online' issue has been a thing for two generations now, is this really still a huge deal to people?
I'm not trying to be ignorant but in today's world, is internet access for consoles really that big of an issue, or is it just another online vocal minority that doesn't represent the rest.
Before anyone brings up the armed forces, two of my mates play with us when they're deployed across multiple destinations (RAF and Army).
IGN is dying along with many other outlets, this is just a way to get eyes back on their product by utilising Ghost of Yotei - a hot product in the market.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with PS games and it's stories, and the last option on the poll is the perfect description for the article and that writer's "opinion" - reductive.
PS Plus has long be more valuable than GamePass, it just wasn't "popular" to say so.
They've raised the prices because their "profitable" service can't sustain the blow of another 'Day 1' Call of Duty launch, one that will no doubt be the lowest selling in years.
PS Plus provides an insane amount of value and it's about time it started getting it's flowers.

Re: Write Full-Length Reviews for Your Favourite (or Least Favourite) PS5, PS4 Games on the PS Store
Can't wait to read about how TLOU Part 2 sucks and Neil Druckmann has the writing skill of a 4 year old 😂
Re: People Don't Buy Anywhere Near As Many Games As You Think
And most of you say Sony chasing the live service bag is dumb 😂
Re: Nifty New PS5 Merch Spotlights Some of Sony's Most Beloved Brands
@Hyena_socks damn just looked now and it happened in 2021 wtf haha, had no idea that had happened.
I guess we were concerned with others things at the time...
But agreed, hopefully someone picks these up on our side 🙏
Re: Nifty New PS5 Merch Spotlights Some of Sony's Most Beloved Brands
Here's hoping for some love outside the US on merch.
You'd hope ASDA would secure the deal in the UK if their parent company holds the reins the US.
Re: Dead Space's Isaac Clarke Is Now in Skate, And He Costs More Than His PS5 Remake
And we're surprised because...
...what did you expect when this was announced as F2P smh.
Re: Peter Molyneux Very Nearly Became a First-Party PlayStation Dev
This isn’t a secret?
I swear Colin from LSM said this years ago 😂
Re: PlayStation Gear Merch Store Closing Down, Sale Live Now
The issue is that it’s always been very expensive anyway, so even sale prices on 90% of the items is too high.
Re: PowerWash Simulator 2 Will Wash Away Your Worries Later This Month on PS5
GOTY 2025 incoming 😍
Re: Sony Reveals Icon Blue PS5 DualSense, Quite Possibly the Bluest Controller Ever
@Exerion76 dead easy process to remove and replace as well...😒
Re: Battlefield 6 PS5 Physical Copies Break Street Date, Full Game on Disc
@Vaako007 understandable, but again the vast majority don't revisit old games despite saying they do.
But fair point made, thanks for the respectful reply.
Re: Oblivion Remastered's Physical PS5 Release Will Include the 'Base Game on Disc'
Based on the Tue 7th Oct 2025, 10am update - it seems pretty clear?
Base game on disc - DLC is download.

Re: Sonic Goes for Gold with New Multi-Year Marketing Alliance with the Olympic Games
I know they had to colour her that way because of the rings, but Amy being green should be a crime 😂
Re: Loads of PlayStation Concert Dates Cancelled Amid Rumours of Low Ticket Sales
I went in April with a mate and we both loved it.
Really gutted that this never really took off how i'm sure everyone would have hoped.
Definitely something that could have been expanded upon if successful but alas, here we are.
Re: 'Really, Really Good': Ghost of Yotei Beats EA Sports FC 26, Super Mario Galaxy in UK Physical Sales
@Foxhound these are UK sales only where physical has always been stronger and yet it doesn't include any figures.
Plus... "However, it did tally a 40% decline in retail sales compared to Ghost of Tsushima."
BS propaganda or a company will 100% of the data vs us with a small percentage?
Re: Talking Point: Are You Getting Sick of Sony's Supposedly 'Samey' Approach to Story Telling?
IGN is dying along with many other outlets, this is just a way to get eyes back on their product by utilising Ghost of Yotei - a hot product in the market.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with PS games and it's stories, and the last option on the poll is the perfect description for the article and that writer's "opinion" - reductive.
Don't fall for their BS.
Re: KPop Demon Hunters Show Fortnite How It's Done with Special Mode, Outfits, More
Love all the people who came here to comment about not liking or having any interest in Fortnite, strange world we live in.
Great film, great game - makes sense to partner up.
Re: Ghost of Yotei's London Billboard Is One of the Coolest Ads We've Seen in Ages
Ngl, PlayStation always have amazing marketing in London - but this is top notch stuff.
Re: PS Plus Extra Loses Two More PS5, PS4 Games in October 2025
Well looks like House of Ashes just jumped the queue of the backlog.
Re: Rumour: Mass Effect, Dragon Age Studio BioWare Braced for Layoffs After EA's Buyout Agreement
Let's hope the Saudi's are big Mass Effect fans 😂

Re: Promising Mountaineering Adventure Cairn Delays the Climb to Early 2026 on PS5
Genuinely think this could be a sleeper hit with some more polish, the demo was great.
Re: Ghost of Yotei-Inspired Tour Brings PS5 Game to Life in Hokkaido
This is awesome!
Would love to see both this and Tsushima on my next tour of Japan.

Re: PS5 Fans Anticipate Big State of Play Livestream This Week
@Bez87 what gets clipped out? Exactly.
There is being correct and they’re ‘shotgun blast predictions’ - literally the beginning of this discussion with my first comment.
Blade from Arkane will be on PS5, i’ve known it since April last year - that’s a prediction/insider info.
‘There will be a PlayStation press conference before the year is out’, is stupid.
Probs best you leave this thread because you’ve lost the point of the discussion.
Re: PS5 Fans Anticipate Big State of Play Livestream This Week
@Bez87 that’s exactly the problem though - he tells people what he hears and runs with it, regardless.
He baits everyone in to his podcast but instead needs to learn to keep his mouth closed until he has concrete info.
He’s a journalist who wishes he was a reputable leaker, when he’s not. He’s just desperate for viewership.
Re: PS5 Fans Anticipate Big State of Play Livestream This Week
@Bez87 it’s not that he’s wrong persay, but his predictions will be “there’ll be a showcase before the end of the year”, like obviously.
He never predicts anything within a week of it happening unless someone else does first, at which point it’s ‘oh yeah I knew that too’.
It’s a shotgun blast prediction every time.
Re: PS5 Fans Anticipate Big State of Play Livestream This Week
We anticipate because you’ve been telling us for weeks it’s happening based on “inside sources” Nate and Grubb (only the former being reputable) 😂😂
Re: Sony's Still Not Doing Anything with Bloodborne, It's Claimed
Jeff Grubb…the guy that’s reliable huh?
Re: Battlefield 6's Lack of Console-Only Crossplay Suddenly a Sticking Point for PS5 Players
It’s not just gameplay differences between PC and Console, it’s the level of hackers too.
Anyone who plays cod knows that it’s riddled with hackers, at least on Warzone - Ricochet is a joke.
I’d much prefer console only crossplay rather than PC crossplay
Re: 'Sony Seeks an Impermissible Monopoly on Genre Conventions': Tencent Fires Back Over Horizon Rip-Off
They’re so dumb it’s actually insane.
They cloned Horizon to try and force a Sly 4 situation, and it’s backfired.
What an embarrassment.
Re: Fans Worry About the Future of Former PS5, PS4 Hit Fall Guys
Might be the best time to jump back in and get the platinum finally, that dreaded 5 wins in a row trophy was a nightmare at launch.
Re: Out Today: Skate Makes Its Big Return in Early Access on PS5, PS4, and It's Free to Play
Can’t wait to jump in with a larger player base.
Been playing for maybe 2 years now and had a blast with so many different testers.
Public servers are going to be great 🙌🏻
Re: 'The Largest Game Launch in History': Rockstar Hypes GTA 6, and Who's Going to Argue?
Tbh game launch doesn’t cover it, this will be the biggest entertainment launch of all time across all mediums.
Re: Rumours of Imminent PS5 Showcase Gain More Credibility
Nate has a good track record, unlike Jeff “Shogun Blast Prediction” Grubb, so it’s nice to get more solid reporting.
Re: As Sony Doubles Down on Anime, Demon Slayer Breaks Box Office Records
Same for the UK too, not just Japan and US.
Watched it yesterday, absolutely loved it 🙌🏻
Re: 'We Were Debating Whether to Go Straight into The Last of Us 3': Expect More Infected in the Future
Happy TLOU Part 3 isn’t dead, was very hard to believe it ever was.
Can’t wait for both Intergalactic and Part 3, Naughty Dog never misses.
Re: Could You Be Persuaded to Watch a Call of Duty Movie?
Will just end up just being ‘another’ war film.
If they had any sense, you’d make a high budget HBO style series that tells the original MW storyline.
3 seasons, 3 games, millions made.
Then you could even do the original Black Ops.
Re: Skate's Free-to-Play Revival Rides into Early Access on PS5, PS4 in September
Having played this for the past few months, i’d say people have nothing to worry about.
But I worry for the long term support if the money doesn’t hit from microtransactions.
EA being EA of course.
Re: Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater (PS5) - The Best Version of an Undisputed Classic
Negatives: “A very unsurprising package”
What? 😂😂
Re: 'Maybe a PS Showcase, Probably a State of Play': Sony Plotting PS5 Livestream for Late September
This has got to be the worst Jeff Grubb related article to date.
Couldn't be anymore of a shotgun blast if he tried.
Stop reporting what this clown says please for your own reputation PushSquare.
“who has a strong track record of being accurate about these things.” No he doesn’t 😂😂
Re: PowerWash Simulator 2 Has a New Trailer Just to Announce Its Price
Day One and i’ll buy every DLC they charge for just to support them.
Re: Will GTA 6 Be Delayed Again? CEO Plays It Safe with His Answer
They were confident before the delay, then the inevitable happened.
Don’t believe a word they say until the game is in my hands.
Re: Preview: PowerWash Simulator 2 Is Bigger, Better, and as Satisfying as Ever
GOTY 2025, can’t wait 🙌🏻
Re: GTA 6 Might Require Age Verification, as GTA Online Checks Leak
‘Thatcher’s Britain’ has long been a common phrase where I live, but ‘Starmer’s Britain’ is very much a powerhouse now.
We’re a joke.
Re: Rumour: Sony to Put More First-Party PS5 Games on Xbox
Depends on the games.
Lego Horizon isn’t an issue, but the new Horizon 3, absolutely not.
Multiplayer games like Fairgames and Marathon, yes why not, but the Horizon MMO - a conversation about that is interesting for sure.
Re: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - The Hinokami Chronicles 2 (PS5) - A Cut Above
Really enjoyed playing the original so this sounds great to me.
Nice review 👍🏻
Re: Microsoft Reiterates It's the Top Publisher on PS5 in Earnings Call
That first comment is a big yikes, poor uneducated soul.
Happy for Xbox to be the biggest publisher on PS if they release great games.
Just a shame that to do so, they had to massacre their business and layoff close to the figure for the entire employee base at PlayStation.
Re: Reaction: PS Plus Essential Deserves Much More Credit for Its Free PS5, PS4 Games in 2025
Been saying this for a very long time, calling out all the entitled crybaby gamers on this site everytime.
Great to see an article finally acknowledge it.
Re: Keep an Eye on ENDS, a GTA-Inspired Sandbox RPG Set in London
I hope this succeeds.
We’re desperate for a remake or remaster of The Getaway, Black Monday is a classic. So this might be the best we can get.
