The most fun I've had with coop is RE5 so I will be there day 1! It also looks like we will eventually get to Code Veronica, each very successful remake they make opens the door for the next one
I wish Sony could unbuy them, complete waste of money considering their heavy price tag (3.6 billion compared to $229 million for Insomniac!) and also their insistence that they will not make any exclusives for PlayStation 🤦
It will definitely happen at some point, maybe in the next generation. They will still always make their hardware but on top of that they want to also be gaming's Netflix
I would be more bothered but since everyone else is doing it plus Capcom has been on fire since the PS4 I don't have a problem supporting them, they deserve it as much if not more than any other publisher
@Titntin "Cant understand the negitivity on display here, people clearly expect too much imo"
After a 35% increase I'm absolutely going to expect more and better, maybe one of the 3 being a AAA game? Show me what you're doing with all that extra money besides putting it into the execs pockets
My expectations are very low so I should be pleasantly surprised as the studio is middling at best. The game should have really gone to a studio like Bluepoint games who are the best in their class, SH2 warrants the best studio working on it
Whatever method gets me to pay less for digital games I will back 🤷 I don't understand why someone would be against this assuming that person doesn't work for Sony or has stock, why would you be anti consumer when you're a consumer?
@ThorsHammer It looks like they have mostly given up on it, PSVR2 is entirely dependent on the charity of third parties. Sony has over 22 studios and they aren't willing to put even half of one on a VR project
@Titntin "not trying to support a doomed new project."
If is doomed it will be their own doing just as they doomed the Vita with stupid decisions and minimal support. They already had a very successful portable in the PSP so it's not impossible if they go all in
Very tired of the Persona 5 world thanks to Sega milking it for every drop! (With no end in sight) Plus this isn't the same Atlus we knew in the PS2-PS4 era, I'm in no rush to go and support them day one anymore
Shocking that they haven't shut the game down yet, I give them a few months till at least Microsoft notices they exist and sees that precious resources are being pumped directly into a black hole
It looks very polished and will probably be lots of fun if you're into live service mp games, unfortunately I don't play those games so there's nothing for me here despite being a Rocksteady fan
Looks like they want to remain independent (for now) however if they ever were to change their minds we all know that Microsoft would be their first choice, I think Sega would rather go under then to be bought by Sony
Maybe I'll get it on a really good sale but it's time to move on to 6 now! I don't understand why Atlus has to run the characters to the ground first before moving on from them
As a Rocksteady fan I'll watch but man I don't have a single inch of hype towards the Suicide Squad game, I need to see something other than lots of jumping and purple orbs
Probably my least favorite PlayStation overall so far, there's barely any variety with the exclusives and it feels like we're getting far less of them. Despite the PS5 being several times more powerful then PS3 (and PS4) it has allot less features 😐
Is a 10/10 package no doubt but I didn't find it fun to play, I'm so used to the very fun and chaotic gameplay from the first three GOW games that this slow downed story focused style didn't do it for me unfortunately
@Skylines81 I would love to know what games you play, I'm assuming you don't play any games that you kill someone? Also in most games with guns you are a mass murderer, Nathan Drake has probably killed millions across all games 🤷
@all3forever You can be a mass murderer in Christmas Massacre and in GTA 6, in fact I'm willing to bet you can stack up a larger body count in GTA by millions if you wanted 😁
With the price of Plus raised by 30% I expected at least a 30% increase in the quality of the games, it looks like they are getting worse. Let's see what we get in December, I'm assuming PS will end the year with a bang otherwise it would be embarrassing for all parties
I Hope this isn't where that extra PS Plus money is going towards, this adds absolutely no value to me and most people. There's hundreds of ways to watch movies and shows at whatever price range you feel like (or don't feel like) paying 🤷
I really stopped complaining about the low quality of the games offered a while ago and just lived with it. That was then, now after the giant price increases I need to see nothing but quality! Where's the extra money going towards as is clearly not going in improving the selection?
It looks cheap in comparison with the OG, reminds me of the PS3 super slim which looked like a chinese knock off. They are definitely saying a good amount of money which is not being pass down to us, in fact the digital edition went up!
This is definitely Sony's worst acquisition just looking at the amount they overpaid for them. They have basically been on the same game for over a decade (which isn't even that great).
I'm sure whatever Naughty Dog was working on was miles better than Destiny 2 and far less scummy. Can Sony still ask for a refund and they just let these guys do their own thing in someone else's house?
So where did the 1 billion for employee retention go? Perhaps to the people at the very top like usual? 😐 Unfortunately Jim Ryan's reign isn't ending soon enough, I can imagine the mess he left that we aren't aware of yet
First I need a remake of part 2, that game was fantastic and I enjoyed it just as much as the first if not more! After that I want them to do their own vision of 3 with the help of the old Visceral developers. EA's push for microtransactions and multiplayer ruined that game beyond fixing
Things have been going this route since MKX and 11 😮💨 just like I did with those games I will happily buy the Komplete versión of MK1, can't wait in 2 years to play it!
Don't just talk about it prove it! Let us see were all the extra money is going aside from bonuses for the top execs. My guess is nothing will change and we will be getting everything we have been getting, I want to come in here and say I was wrong though
AKA "we won't actually have any of our great first party studios make games for it but hey at least it will continue getting some third party support! (except Valve, we'll never get Half-Life: Alyx but we will continue putting games on Valve's store 🙂)
When I cry about Japan Studio's death the other studio that always comes to mind is Mm and how they probably haven't made Sony a dime in years. Is an incredible achievement in itself that they are still standing
Not exactly the devastating earth shattering news we were expecting, that said I would like everyone involved in the live service and PC push to maybe not have a job at PlayStation anymore
Looks like the score is for the games themselves and not the collection which looks like a hot mess. I'm pretty patient I'll just wait for another collection down the line that has more love and passion put into it
The only thing this does is reaffirm my stance that this new and "improved" Atlus doesn't deserve full price money. Knowing them they would probably later have the Xbox version of the protagonist be able to equip every weapon in the franchise just cause 🤷
It's been over a year since TLOU part 1 released I think is due for another remaster! why not is not like Naughty Dog has anything better to do, they are now just that tlou studio
Have superhero fatigue at the moment plus I haven't seen anything yet that screams I must drop everything I'm doing and preorder. I do hope it does incredibly well for Insomniac who are a game making machine
@Lyedecker First impressions are everything and the impressions for FairGame$ (man that name 🤢) have been overwhelmingly negative, is already a laughing stock. Soapstars has a better chance at success and that too will ultimately fail
Not surprising is pretty obvious there's not much effort and love going into these, they are being put together with bubble gum and spit from the execs for a quick influx of cash
@AdamNovice Well FairGame$ certainly has a low bar to clear or at least to match. If Jade really cares about her game's success she will stop whatever she's doing now and announce a name change along with a better trailer
@Andy22385 "I can't see this game ever making it to XB. Their gamers don't really care about JRPGS. "
You say that but right now Xbox has the definitive 4K/120fps versions of JRPGS Persona 3 & 4 with no PS5 versions in sight. I could definitely see SE bending the knee (aka bending the wallet) to Microsoft
