@Pat_trick It's a mystery for sure especially when sexual objectification of seemingly underage schoolgirls goes by in Japan without anyone blinking an eye.
@PlaystationPortalFan , Since you've created a profile specifically to illustrate your love of a bare screen and attached controller, let me turn your attention to some of Sony's other "successes" outside of the gaming realm ...
Video 8 ?
Betamax ?
Discman ?
UMD ?
DAT ?
Memory Stick Duo ?
Big TV over handhelds any day of the week, Sony's just joining the current bandwagon here and given their track record at supporting hardware that doesnt meet their sales expectations (Vita,PSVR2) I dont hold out much hope on this.
@MrM1075 Aye know what ye mean, it seems more creativity was available when technology was limited, kinda forced devs to think outside the box a bit more.
@Warldorf That's the snobbery around certain sections of the console playerbase right there. If a game doesn't feature cutting edge graphics but has great gameplay it's not worthy of playing on a new console. Funny thing is you never hear the PC userbase who are more than likely playing on rigs which cost far in excess the price of any console and graphically more capable, complaining that a certain style of game is "beneath them" Ironic really as these people are singled out as being a "master race" Maybe they are in reflection to their positive attitude towards all gaming, retro or otherwise.
Been following news on this on Time Extension. Can never have enough shmups 😃 Wish we could get Drainus,Devil Blade Reboot or Crimzon Clover on PS5 though 😐
Never really been a "on the go" type gamer or hung out with the homies @ the skate park all playing our switches 🤣 or had the nuclear family and extended all cramped onto one couch directly infront of the TV for some Mario Kart et al so the PS5 will do for me 😀
@JayJ Looks cool just a pity, looking forward to seeing more of Milestone's Screamer though 👍 I got their last Monster Truck game cheap and ended up really enjoying it 😀
@StuDogg Quite enjoy them as modern updates to classic games, nice wee visual upgrades (4k and some are120fps) and good soundtracks. Games have a mission mode with various goals which helps longevity as they are arcade games at the end of the day.

Re: Stellar Blade Thrives on PC, 1 Million Copies Sold in 3 Days
I'm surprised so many pc players have managed to free up their right hand in order to play the game.

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for June 2025?
Never a great idea to ask gamers if their happy with something 😀
Re: This New PSPgo Inspired Retro Handheld Looks Brilliant
@ZeroSum Its convenience, i had the same setup with my phone but clipping controllers on and off and phone notifications became a pita.

Re: These 20+ New PS5, PS4 Games Are Coming Out This Week (16th-22nd June)
Pity about the Gex trilogy having no UK dub, would've got it if it did.
Re: This New PSPgo Inspired Retro Handheld Looks Brilliant

Re: Random: Official PlayStation Console Diorama Pieces Are on the Way
PS5 just looks wrong with that disk drive lumped onto the side of it.

Re: 38% of PS Plus Members Are Paying More for Extra, Premium
They need to ditch premium, go for fewer but better releases on extra and put the cloud streaming on extra.
Re: Stellar Blade's PC Mods Do More Than Remove Eve's Nanosuit
You should see the beauties im blasting away at in Doom the dark ages, right stunners 🤢
Re: Stellar Blade's PC Mods Do More Than Remove Eve's Nanosuit
