@Needjamesd Interesting, my game is indeed installed on a second SSD. I will try to put it back on the main one then.
@PsBoxSwitchOwner I hear you, some people might have been unlucky, but in my case and despite those few annoying random freezes, it is perfectly fine. I have recently encountered way more issues with games like Dragon's Dogma 2 or Code Vein II for example.
Starfield is far from broken on PS5. It is even the cleanest Bethesda game i've ever played, and by far. Despite few freezes that are occuring to me on planets with a lot of trees/foliage, I haven't encounter a single glitch in 90 hours of playtime.
@Haggis555 I think it's a great game for those who likes Sci-Fi and games like Mass Effect and No Man's Sky. I'm 60 hours in, and for the moment I do not understand the negative comments about it.
I am glad I did not listen to negative reviews and comments about this game, because I'm 40 hours in, and it will very likely become my favorite Bethesda game. Yes it has flaws, but as a Space/Sci-fi fan (I loved Mass Effect and No Man's Sky), I am sold. The scope for this game looks insane. 9/10 so far.
Very unfair, it has one of the most satisfying gameplay mechanics seen in a Soulslike. I also really loved the loot system, less invasive than in Nioh. Last but not least, Kahzan has some of the very best boss fights in the genre. The only flaws I found are the artistic direction that is bland and very "monochrome", and the uninspired level design of some areas. Despite that, you should give a try if you like Soulslikes.
Maybe i am naive, but from what i understood, you will never pay more than you should. On the worst case scenario, you will pay the normal price. Only if you check all the boxes, you will maybe have the chance to get a (better) discount. So it is not that bad IMO.
Today, if you want to play the latest Mario or Pokémon game, you need to buy a Nintendo Switch, and it doesn't look like it is a problem for most of people.
The trailer is a summum of everything I hate. It looks like a bad mobile F2P game, with a bland "Fortnite" graphic style, and a forced clumsy co-op. It just miss some Season Pass BS or Live Service thing, and it would be a Bingo.
I truly hope that the targeted audience will have fun tho.
10 year-old me was amazed by the pictures of the game in magazines at the time, but i've never had a PC Engine. So yes, I will buy this one without a doubt.
At this point, I'm starting to believe that this is a sabotage. Hermen Hulst and Jim Ryan are double agents working for Xbox. If they had done their best to harm PlayStation, they couldn't have done a better job.
Anyway, despite its good looking characters, DOA6 is probably the worst entry in the series. I will patiently wait for DOA7, hoping that it will be a way better game.
Honestly, i bought my PS5 in early 2021, and it feels like i have it for barely a year. Needs way more exclusive titles, just feels like a more powerfull PS4 with nothing really noteworthy. I could not care less about a new hardware right now, I just want exclusive games that I won't be able to play anywhere else.
I am truly sorry, but if the game needs online to be played, then $40 is WAY too expensive.
Personally, since Babylon's Fall, I recommend to anyone to avoid buying those games. If it flops, the servers will be shut down 10 months after and you will never be able to play it again. It is a scam that way too many players accept IMO.
@VicerExciser Thank you but, I play on PS5 so I do not have access to mods. Second point, the fun part IMO is to unlock everything on my own by playing.
I tried the demo by curiosity, and damn, it was worse than what I thought it would be (and I was expecting something bad). The performance is shocking, it look bad like a medium AA PS4 title, and it runs only at 30 fps...
I'm gonna fight this at my level by not bying any game that uses ***** generative AI. I am aware it is useless, but, if each player all over the world do the same, then maybe...
The only thing that could make me buy a PS6 are exclusive titles. If PS6 games are also released on PC like it is now with PS5 games, i will then not need a PS6.
As a huge Shmup fan, i have of course played it, and here is my little take on it :
Amazing retro visuals with cool video options
The soundtrack is an absolute blast
It really feels like a game that could has been released in the early 90's, and not just a tribute
There are some audio options but nothing to mix music and sound effects independently
The game is difficult (a thing that i'm used to with this type of games), but not in a good way. Some enemy attacks are difficult to read and faster than your ship - which can sometimes left you with an unfair feeling. For those like me who likes to do "no hit" runs, good f****** luck with this one, even on the easiest mode.

@johnedwin I am not an English native speaker, and the fact that "PS5" is mentioned in the article's title is pretty confusing to me.

6 Millions sales just for the PS5 version?!

Re: Out Today: Marathon's PS5 Launch Puts Sony's $3B Live Service Gamble to the Test
If your game can be described with terms like "Live Service", "GAAS", "PVP", "F2P", or "Season Pass", then i'll pass even with a 99 Metacritic score.

Re: Memory Crisis Threatening to Delay PS6 Could Last 'Another 10 Years'
Well, now that they've shut down Bluepoint Games, they can keep their PS6 until 2070, I do not care anymore...
Re: Opinion: Sony's Disgraceful Bluepoint Closure Should Concern Every PS Studios Fan
Now I know that I will not buy a PS6. The trust is gone, they are managing their studios like Xbox did.

Re: Granblue Fantasy: Relink - Endless Ragnarok Massively Expands the PS5 Action RPG in July
This game needs an option to automatically reduce the UI, so it disappear when you're not in combat for example. It is way too intrusive.

Re: Poll: Is Fallout 4 Underrated, 10 Years Later?
What i hate with this game is it is not RPG enough. Being able to unlock everything is lame, like in Skyrim. New Vegas is way, way better.
