I'll always cheer for a game breaking the chains of console exclusivity and going multi-platform! Am I excited for this personally? Not really, but I'm happy for the people who were hoping for this!
I'm so glad Konami finally stopped snorting cocaine, got off that pachinko craze and is finally giving us a new entry in the Castlevania series! I would have personally preferred something centered around Julius in his prime, but we're starved out here, so I'll take what I can get!
They also teased that a new metal gear is coming, and I just hope that they learned their lesson with Metal Gear Survive. Not sure if they can make a new MGS without Kojima, but it would be nice if they actually tried... And I mean ACTUALLY tried, not like what they did with Survive.
This is by far the best State of Play I've seen. Take notes, Nintendo; people want to see new games to get excited for the year ahead, not games that have been available on all other systems!
On one hand, I'm glad that Ubisoft is finally acknowledging some of its legacy IPs, and I want to show my support for that, especially since I've never finished Rayman 1. On the other hand, I don't want to support Ubisoft...
Probably won't use these, but I appreciate the option making its way to PS5 anyway. But if they're going out of their way to add these features, shouldn't they have done it for the first game too?
If Spyro would've been my Banjo-Kazooie had I grown up with a PS1 instead of an N64, I'll bet CTR would've been my Diddy Kong Racing. I hope this is real so I can finally see what I missed out on all these years! I just hope it doesn't use motion blur, like Crash N-Sane Trilogy and Spyro Reignited Trilogy did.
I thought about buying FFVII on Switch, but if the lineup continues to impress me further, I may have to reconsider... Give me Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, Metal Gear Solid, and Crash Team Racing, and I'm completely sold!
On a serious note, I've had my copy of Uncharted 4 since I got my PS4 over a year ago, and I haven't touched it since. I wouldn't mind getting the Uncharted trilogy for free, though I realise this is probably unrealistic.
Edit: Of course, picking it up on sale for $8 ain't so bad either.
When was E3 about winning? It's more about pushing software and hardware sales, not a measuring contest. That said, I'm interested in what Squenix will do. No doubt show KH3, but I've a feeling there's more up their sleeve.
I never felt like the DS4 thumbsticks felt oddly positioned... Then again, these are probably not designed for people like me, so much as for people who play XBOX on a regular basis, can't adapt to different controller layouts, game competitively... and have deep pockets.
Okay... I am not familiar with God of War beyond the little bit I watched my brother play growing up and the fight with Kratos in Shovel Knight. Is this game a good starting point? Because it looks gorgeous, but I don't want to feel lost in the story.
I didn't have a PS1 growing up, but I always brought Pizza Hut's demo discs over to my cousin's place to play whatever games were on them, and Spyro was one of my favorites on those discs. I can't wait to finally get a chance to play the full games! That said, I'll be getting this on PS4, day one!
I'm surprised the revival didn't happen through Kickstarter; we're talking about a company that crept under a rock for almost 2 decades, and decided to come back when their mascot became relevant again. Their funding for this game raises as many questions as Tommy Wiseau's funding for The Room! Where are they getting this money from?!
Unfortunately, rather than a rose-tinted look at the titles of yore, this game falls into all of the same pitfalls as its predecessors: it's rough around the edges, often annoying, and at times even a chore. Sounds like I'll enjoy this just fine. I heard the XBONE version suffers from frame drops, is that the case here?
@Boerewors Well, the way I see it, Nintendo has always been an underdog in the video game market; even if they make an impressive game, no one's really rooting for them, except for Nintendo fans. Everyone else is singing praises for Sony and Microsoft's systems, so NL only focuses on Nintendo's systems. That's how I figure it is, anyways.
Ironically, I just bought a PS4 because I don't see an immediate need to buy another Nintendo system. That, and I want to play Kingdom Hearts 1.5, 2.5, and 2.8 HD Remix, and eventually KH3.

Re: PS5 Game Devs Collectively Clown on Nvidia's Controversial DLSS 5 Tech
I'll give it to to the Among Us devs. Bean dude looking like a character from JoJo is brilliant!

Re: Guide: All Free PS Plus Games in 2019
I've heard of the WipEout games, and maybe that'll scratch this itch I've had for a certain series that's been long absent from Nintendo systems.
Re: Rumour: Will the Crash Team Racing PS4 Remake Drift Onstage at The Game Awards?
If Spyro would've been my Banjo-Kazooie had I grown up with a PS1 instead of an N64, I'll bet CTR would've been my Diddy Kong Racing.

Re: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy Takes PS4 to Court in 2019
Still using those compressed DS samples, I see. So glad to see this HD remaster isn't exclusive to the visuals...
Re: Guide: All PlayStation Classic Mini Games

Re: Talking Point: What Free September 2018 PlayStation Plus Games Do You Want?
It'll be hard for Sony to top Heavy Rain. I don't think any PS+ game will ever live up to that masterpiece.
Re: Here's What a French Product Designer Thinks PS5 Will Look Like
I hate literally everything about this, even it being completely wireless. Why make a system so pricey with technology it doesn't need?
Re: E3 2018: New Kingdom Hearts III Trailer Introduces Pirates of the Caribbean
So are these the same actors from the movie? Jack doesn't sound the same as he did in KH2.
Re: Talking Point: How Can Sony Win E3 2018?
@get2sammyb Well, I hope Microsoft has a better year this time. All I can remember from last year was me screaming "Shut up about the damn car!"
Re: Talking Point: How Can Sony Win E3 2018?

Re: New Licensed Pro PS4 Controller Announced - Why Doesn't Sony Just Make One?

Re: God of War's Photo Mode Looks Ace, Update Comes to PS4 Soon

Re: Guide: All PS4 Pro Enhanced Games
I'm curious. What does the Pro do for KH1.5+2.5? I hope KH3 doesn't need the Pro to run smoothly, like KH0.2BBSAFP
Re: Rumour: Spyro Remaster Roaring to PS4 Later This Year

Re: Jak & Daxter Tetralogy Nearing PS4 Release
So let me see if I got this right... PS4 is getting the Jak & Daxter Trilogy, and the racing game, Jak X, but Crash N-Sane Trilogy can't get CTR?
