This is releasing on every current system known to man, why does it have to be PlayStation that has to waste a State of Play on it and not Microsoft, PC and Nintendo?
Well there's a fantastic all new game that just came out and a needed PS3 era remaster that's also fantastic! for remasters of PS4 games just copy/paste the old review, it's the exact same game.
These are the types of games Sony should be remastering, games that are stuck on dead consoles. PS5 plays PS4 games better than the PS4 so why waste resources remastering it's games?
@nhSnork "Until a Switch or Switch 2 port, that is."
Huh? Do you mean because it would be portable? This isn't an RPG, games like this and Gran Turismo should be played in as big of a screen as possible with the smoothest framerates (and a wheel if possible).
@Rob_230 "Must have cost them a fortune advertising this thing"
Not as much as you think, WWE has had a strategic partnership with Saudi Arabia since 2018. Even if they did pay something it's Saudi money, they have the infinite money glitch.
@S1ayeR74 "but a system limited to PS5 only games?"
Who said is limited to only PS5? It goes without saying that when they say PS5 that includes everything below that. You wouldn't be interested in a Sony portable that could natively play PS5, PS4, PS3, PS2, PS1, PSP, PS Vita? While also being able to stream PS6 games (maybe some will be ported natively too)?
I'm guessing for PS6 it will act as the following up to the Portal, stream all your PS6 games anywhere. Everything from PS1-PS5 will run natively, if that's the case take all my money Sony!!
So is in the middle of PS4 and Series S, for a portable that's still pretty good. Nintendo hasn't been about cutting edge hardware since the GameCube so I'm not sure why Nintendo fans would be mad about this.
The thing is everything will now increase because of the tariffs. This includes countries, companies and industries that are not directly affected by said tariffs but will use it as an excuse regardless to get more money out of us.
I doubt we will see another new game and that's fine by me, I was pretty satisfied with how part 2 ended. I say let TLOU rest now like Uncharted rested, I was getting bored of Uncharted but now I'm dying for a new entry.
We really should have made more of a fuzz when PlayStation during the PS4 reveal announced we will have to start to pay for online play, there was some noise but it should have been 100x more.
So I would have to pay $70 so I can transfer my save to play a version with worse graphics and framerates? π which PS5 player is going to cough up $70+ to play a game they already own and have played for years now?
I'm not looking forward to Hellblade II releasing on PS5 just because I will have to see articles about it here π the first one is the most boring game I've ever played and I'm sure 2 will be the second most boring game I haver ever played!
It would have been outdated on day 1 even if it had reached the exact same specs as the PS5, this gen is already 5 years in! of course is still going to sell out but just don't expect any big third party games (like always) in the near future once this gen starts to wraps up.
@Dom_31 "Betcha it'll be the best thing since sliced bread when it comes to ps5."
Are you new here lol. Search up any first party Sony exclusive multiplayer/live service game on this site and click the comments, you will see true horror π
Keep a lookout for when Fairgame$ gets another trailer, you will see everyone here turn into a Cenobite and rip the game's soul apart!
Even with me being a big Soulsborne fan I still would have no interest in this game if it got ported. It's just Fromsoft experimenting with multiplayer and probably live service too.
There was never a point in Bloodborne where I stopped and said to myself "gosh this story single player nonsense sure is boring, I wish I was battling other players instead".
Basically charging for the use of a physical button? Imagine Sony locking the create button behind PS Plus, they would be relentlessly mocked for 101 years.
There's no game on this earth I would pay $80 for, heck I've paid $70 only twice this gen and I could probably blame my sleepless nights on those purchases π
I do plan to get the Switch 2 later on but like the Switch it will be a exclusive machine. There's no way I would buy multiplat games on it, why would I pay the same (or more!) to have the lesser of all three consoles.
But hasn't it been unofficially confirmed that both PlayStation & Microsoft are going the console and portable route next gen? PS6 having more power with a Steam deck like device would be good enough for me.
@Rhaoulos "That "most powerful console in the universe"
Hasn't Xbox literally markered itself as the most powerful console in every single console generation starting with the OG Xbox? PlayStation since PS2 has always been in the middle road of power.
@HonestHick "Why are we comparing specs for a handheld vs a console that was so large most of us had to buy a new desk or TV furniture stand for?"
Because it's the newest console from one of the three main console makers, is PC a console? It absolutely has to be compared as not everyone buys multiple consoles!
Some people just stick to one and maybe they would want to know if they pick the Switch 2 it would be capable of running GTA 6 or RDR3 in the future.
People want to play these largely because of nostalgia, if you remove the things that helped made them nostalgic what's the point? Why not just make a new game if you really want people listening to new stuff?
The entire company has been in complete shambles, they have no idea what they are doing with any of their divisions. They are cancelling projects and firing all over the place at a rapid rate, I have no faith in any game that comes out of this current WB.
@Dalamar I disagree, GTA IV was so good and the characters were so interesting that I have been thinking about them at least once a day for the last 18 years π
Maybe the earlier ones didn't have much of a story but I would say starting with San Andreas the writing has been progressively getting stronger (Vice City was basically just Scareface but still fantastic!).
They can't dictate what Valve does with it's platform, their only option is just removing their games from Steam. Nintendo is doing fine without ever touching PC and with Xbox practically removing itself from the console wars now is the best time to have exclusives.
There's big bucks to be made from the culture war! I prefer to not engage and just pretend gamers are like they were in the 90s and early 20s where we would play as anyone or anything that was on the screen π€·π»
Well that's why you have higher ups that oversee everything and make sure a team is on the right path and is going to make something profitable. Where was the person overseeing this studio?
I know Volition didn't write themselves checks, who wrote the checks? The people at the top need to be held accountable and not just the ground devs who have little say and no power.
"Blu-ray discs PS5 games are printed on have the shortest life expectancy and are only estimated to last around 20 years under ideal conditions."
Wait what!? So you're saying in a about a year all PS3 discs will start to rot? I have a hard time believing that, I just checked some of my launch PS3 games (Resistance & Project 8) and they still look pristine.
@UltimateOtaku91 "This is why I won't be buying any games they bring over, they will go down the third party publisher route to make it easier to buy more Studios and IP and then in the future they could make a new console and make all their games exclusive."
So we shouldn't buy and enjoy Microsoft games today because maybe in 18-30 years they will make a super console and make all their games exclusives in turn destroying PlayStation? Will they also acquire all of Sony's & Nintendo's exclusives?
Unfortunately I don't see Sony ever bringing Socom back (without hiring ex Zipper devs) and I don't think Insomniac would let anyone else touch resistance. Guerrilla Games on the other hand wants nothing to do with Killzone so I say Killzone.
That's great that the Pro can be upgraded like that without needing new hardware, well it's all software but it's still impressive that the Pro has the necessary power.
I absolutely believe they will launch in 2026, they have nothing to lose at this point when it comes to consoles so why not got for a hail mary? They gain nothing from releasing their console with PlayStation.
Didn't know this had so many fans, I remember it being mixed with people hating the werehog parts. I would love remasters or ports of the Adventure games though.
@rjejr Well the show isn't canon so that isn't surprising, what is surprising and I'm absolutely loving is Toriyama's final FU to anyone that didn't like GT π
Is priced exactly how it is currently on Xbox and Steam so I don't understand the controversy, PlayStation should get special treatment? It will be on sale many times over just like the first batch of Xbox games so this is definitely a non issue.
WB needs a complete cleansing of all the people on top, they don't know what the hell they're doing. That goes to every single one of their divisions, mismanagement every where you look.
