@Ralizah "I don't see the point with Sony's games all going to PC anyway"

Well if/when Sony releases their portable that would mean they would prioritize their portable over the Deck (and PC ports maybe start to dwindle) which is what I'm sure you're more afraid of.

Also as soon as this comes out the Steam Deck will take a back seat and Sony would have the number 2 most popular portable, like Sammy said the Steam Deck hasn't even sold as much as the Vita (aka one of Sony's biggest failure..after Concord!)

@mariomaster96 "since Sony brings their games to PC anyway not really needed"

This wouldn't be aimed at Steam users, they have the Steam deck. This is for strictly PlayStation users who have a giant collection of PS4/PS5 (plus future PS6 titles) games and want to play it on the go.

@Northern_munkey "I find the treatment this game has had to endure quite indicative of the herd mentality"

It's one of the best selling games of the year and is currently picking up goty awards, what treatment? it seems like it's doing fine for itself. Cause 2-3 news outlets did one negative article each about it? You're angry because It should have received 100% positive coverage or else?

@sanderson72 "Every PS5 is ugly"

When you play games are you looking at the console or the TV? What difference does it make what it looks like if is getting the job done?

If is because guest that visit you keep telling you how ugly it looks tell them to mind their own business and go play tag in the highway 🤷

As far as acquisitions go it makes the most sense besides Sony would probably keep all the FromSoft games multiplat except those that belong to Sony. They are only really interested in growing their anime empire to one of the biggest in the world.

@Wario_Waha "there's past precedence for people not liking From Software."

Sir which is the game that's universally loved here on Push Square and the entire site has been begging to be remastered? I heard someone shout Bloodborne, who made that game? Demon's Souls is another one, FromSoftware is synonymous with PlayStation.

Still don't understand the desire to remaster games perfectly playable on current gen (with an exception only made for Bloodborne 😛). Let's get some remasters of fantastic games rotting away on the PS3!

@LifeGirl If anything it makes Ubisoft look the worst and confirms many people's stereotypes about them being a bunch of talentless hacks who just copy and paste their formula everywhere.

"This game has less peak concurrent player than Concord"

I didn't want to believe it so I had to check and yup! It debuted to lower numbers and it's doing worse than Concord in the same time frame. A complete ghost town, great job Herman for having two first party games bomb so close to each other 👍

This is the stuff that needs remastering! Great games that are stuck on old dead platforms.

It's safe to say Sony will have a Horizon game ready every year for the foreseeable future, I'm guessing Horizon 3 will be ready by 2026. So buckle up everyone Sony is going to make you love Horizon or else

Not a big deal this time as this game can probably run on the PS3 & Vita if they wanted, I'm more shocked at having to choose between performance and fidelity on PS5.

If I had to guess he's probably waiting for Lina Khan to be gone who was the most vicious against monopolies and acquisitions. So yeah expect Microsoft to go on a shopping spree again and no one will stop them 🤷

Currently averaging 70 on Metacritic which is what I expected from a vapid Lego game. I hope after this Guerilla slows down with trying to make Horizon happen, let it rest a bit and give us some other IP (new or old).

On formerly Twitter you can pretty much find any opinion on anything and make a controversy on whatever you want, I tune out when I see "rando Twitter user says". With that said I can't wait for this new game!

If this GOTY contender that has as much charm as anything else this gen doesn't do well then we absolutely deserve endless Live service games! If it's confirmed that it didn't sell much I hope Concord 2 gets announced along with Concord the animated series!

This is jealousy and bitterness in it's purest form! He's hurt that this "small kids game" is receiving critical acclaim while also using the character he created, meanwhile his game debuted to a middling reception and now he's stuck making NFT games for Crypto bros 🤷

"is barely hitting 20,000 concurrent players"

That actually sounds pretty good to me not sure why they expected more. It does put into perspective the almost less than 100 people playing Concord, in fact Suicide Squad is averaging more players 😅

@DDDD You give them $40 worth of in-game skins, cosmetics and/or currency. They either turn it to F2P to have a fighting chance (maybe getting those 2,000+ players from the beta) or everything stays the same and the game is pulled in a couple of months so those who paid get to play dead air.

So then we should wait for the definitive PC version of the game which will be cheaper, look and run better? genius marketing right here! must be the same marketing team of Concord 😒

I don't see how Haven studios isn't panicking a bit, Fairgame$ debut trailer was received even worse than Concord. Is never a good idea to just power through the release day and while ignoring all the negative noise believing it will justb go away.

I don't understand why after they saw the initial backlash they didn't try to change course a bit. The first Sonic movie should have been the template on what to do if your product is received negatively instead of the approach of ramming it through the finish line and pray for the best.

Sony still one more potential flop in Fairgames which I'm guessing they will also try to ram it through the finish line while ignoring any outside noise 😐

"I think I’m going to choose LEGO Horizon Adventures, to be honest"

Sammy truly is one of a kind 😅

For me Astro Bot is the clear winner, I'm actually very excited to see what else they do with the Dualsense as no other studio has come close to Astro's Playroom despite that being a launch title!

@pip_muzz Wait every single song was removed 😳 even Lollipop, Hey Mickey, Nemesis and Needled 24/7!? Well that took my excitement down a couple of notches, there goes my full nostalgia trip 😔

I hope the soundtrack is left intact or at least mostly as is, also I'm happy about the costumes as there were a few that didn't make it to PS3 at least in the US. All that aside it's a easy day one! I had a blast on the PS3 version, I wish we got more games like this that are light on story but a blast to play.

@RoomWithaMoose "That split screen caveat kills a lot of interest I had in this"

Why would that kill it, split screen is there for you to play with a buddy. Is looking at different backgrounds that big of a reason? Based on the rest of your comment you weren't interested even if it had more stages than any game ever.

Very good news, I hope Sea of Thieves stays in numer one at least till Astro Bot releases. Why do I say this? cause that expedites me being able to possibly play Halo MCC and Killer Instinct on my PS5 🤞

@Yaycandy "Why would sony make a new handheld hardware when they could just partner with nintendo in any form…"

So when we buy a PS5/PS4 game we are able to use that copy on the go with Sony's handheld? I don't wanna have to buy games twice to be able to use on the go.

Also what are we getting in return from this Nintendo partnership? Is Nintendo going to port some of their games to PlayStation? The answer is no of course not, everyone gets to give them their games and in return they don't have to share anything... Great partnership 👍

@CrackmanNL "Meanwhile FF7 Rebirth still the highest rated game of the year, Helldivers 2 among the best selling. Concord claps every hero-shooter shown in SGF and Astrobot highly likely to be a GOTY (contender)."

This is nice information if I had stock at Sony but what does this do for a regular fan that just wants a nice E3 level presentation from PlayStation like the other big two are able to do?

@get2sammyb "I'd argue PlayStation should be putting together a presentation that fulfils their fans irrespective of what Nintendo, Xbox, or anyone else is doing."

That's exactly what some of us want! why is it written law that Sony has to put out the worst showcases/state of plays and Microsoft/Nintendo get to have exciting E3 level presentations?

I expected nothing and what I got was worse than nothing, worse showing of the year and nothing will top it 🤷

@TrickyDicky99 "Sony putting more games on rival consoles than PSVR2"

That's actually very accurate now 😅 heck PSVR2 wish it was getting just a tiny fraction of the attention Sony gives PC.

@Ashina Sure but first we need Bayonetta 2 & 3! We need to know that Nintendo is also willing to play ball and share 🙂

I really wanted the collection but I would settle for a Halo 1 remaster, whichever Halo they throw my way is a day one buy! I've bought two of the four games Microsoft has thrown our way so my wallet is ready.

The animations and effects are incredible!! This doesn't look like one of their cheap Dragon Ball games with minimal effort, they are putting real effort this time and I'm here for it!

Well almost every single giant gaming company which includes EA, Activation, Take-Two and Ubisoft are making more billions now then they ever had in their entire history! Yet there are more layoffs now from them then ever before, make it make sense 😐

@Gamer_X Like someone mentioned this is better (F2P model) for fighters than what Tekken 8 did which was/is $70 and still morphed into a live service game with season passes. Also I would rather WB have games like this as live service and leave the single player games/studios alone.

I feel confident in saying this will be Sony's Redfall except with a much crappier name! I really can't believe they haven't changed the name yet it's so embarrassing 😐

Where can I sign to stop companies from turning beloved horror ips into asymmetrical multiplayer games? Why can't we get more quality single player stuff like Alien: Isolation?

@somnambulance "It’s not a great game, but it certainly deserves to be above Suicide Squad."

I disagree, Suicide Squad is clearly a garbage game but at least it has actual gameplay and it's cutscenes quality are 10/10 (graphically I mean). Skull and Bones was a game that looks like it was supposed to be scrapped but Ubisoft were forced to release it.

Despise the first game with a passion, don't recall another game where I was more bored! my god slowly walking everywhere was ironically a test of my own sanity. This looks like more of the same but with a prettier coat of paint, I wish NT nothing but success but I hope they are done with this franchise.

Even if you have a itch to play as a pirate you wouldn't be playing this game as you're just living the life of a pirate ship with a stamina bar! there's a far superior pirate game out now that's way better and way cheaper too.

If PlayStation itself is not seeing the benefit of keeping games exclusives why would anyone else? Times are changing and exclusives no longer have the same effect they once did, well for anyone other than Nintendo.

@Kraaatos "Oh no, thats about 150 lost sales, how can sony recover?"

"It doesn't personally effect me and my beloved country so who cares, probably just the poors regions" is what I got from your comment 😒

I felt this was the case already, oh man they want to drown us in Persona games 😅

Is not like Insomniac is going to be using the ip any time soon as they have been excile to super hero purgatory 😐

Thanks Europe! this all but guarantees that the flood gates for Xbox games to PS5 is wide open. I mean is not like Xbox has anything else to lose by porting their whole catalog 😅

I loved all of Ninja Theory's games except Hellblade, my god how boring. All of Ninja Theory's games had been fast pace but this one you had to slowly walk everywhere with sprinkles of simple action (their previous game was DmC!) and a really obnoxious voice that wouldn't stay quiet.

Even saying all that I really wish Sony had snatched them up, a remake of Heavenly Sword with some of the fighting of DmC would have been goty material. Now we have to watch them possibly close because we know Hellblade 2 is not going to do Fortnite numbers which is apparently what Microsoft would deem a success 🤷

Only have Plus for Online like many here, wouldn't bother if I had a choice. I like having ownership of my games so was never interested in GP, even the "free" Plus games you're just renting them till your subscription runs.

@FantasyExplor3r88 "I dont get it why the series took the first person path"

Probably because Resident Evil 6 was such a disaster and bomb (worst game in the series by a mile 🤢) that they had to go back to the drawing board including making new characters and world.

Well their gamble paid off massively and thanks to 7 & 8's success Capcom made so much money that they are able to confidently greenlight pretty much any remake they please (except Veronica apparently 🥲).
