I'm at a 7. It's a good time with friends but I'd never play it not in a group. Just gets a bit boring then. I didn't touch the campaign since most people seem at best kind of lukewarm on it.

Overall it's a solid shooter. Not my favorite shooter out there but I've certainly played worse.

Rest in Peace Itagaki.
DOA is my favorite 3D fighter series and I respect the hell out of Ninja Gaiden even though I'm terrible at those games!

He will absolutely be missed. One of the GOATs.

I will be there day 1. Halo is still my favorite shooter out there. Can't wait to see it!

I look at the games I'm currently playing and for the most part I just don't see any need for new hardware yet. I didn't see the need for the PS5 Pro. I don't see the need for the PS6.

Ghost of Yotei looks incredible and runs great on my base PS5. Other than that I'm playing mostly JRPGs and SF6. Neither of which are really taxing the hardware in any way.

Of course there is likely something in the works that will tempt me. Perhaps Witcher 4 will be the thing that tips me over the edge. One thing is for sure though I'm done fighting other players and scalpers at launch. It's just not worth the hassle. I will only buy hardware if a stress-free opportunity presents itself!

Edit: The portable possibility does interest me though. Particularly if it's actually ran on the hardware and not like the Portal.

I'd buy an Infamous 1&2 collection day one no question. Doesn't have to be Sucker Punch who does it. In fact that would be a waste of their resources. There are plenty of other devs out there that wouldn't mind taking on the project. Shop it around a bit.

The only way I would even consider paying to watch would be if they completely remove ads and drop the price significantly. Like $5 at the most.

Even then though, it's in Japan. No offense to the Japanese but I'm not paying for something I could potentially fall asleep on!

Just roll it back to the usual setup Capcom. Come on use your heads!

Definitely one I'm keeping an eye on. It looks amazing...a bit too amazing perhaps. If it launches in a good state I'll jump in for sure.

The handling of Bluepoint might be the biggest head scratching decision made by the Jim Ryan era. I'm still genuinely bewildered about that whole debacle. Still, it is good to see they are moving on at least. Wishing them the best with whatever they are working on.

I'm not in any rush to get to it. I'm still playing Yotei and Trails. Maybe in a few weeks though.

No SBMM worked out so well for XDefiant too...oh wait.

I get not wanting every match to be a sweat-fest but I feel like that's just the way it is sometimes. I primarily play SF6 for my multiplayer fix. It wouldn't make sense for the game to match me up with someone way lower in terms of rank. It's not fun for me because I'm just steamrolling the opponent and it's not fun for my opponent because they are getting...well steamrolled.

I feel like SBMM, while not perfect in some ways of course, is still miles better than just throwing everyone into the match pool with zero consideration for skill level.

Say what you will about COD but you gotta respect that they still put in some effort on their campaigns. Sure they aren't always good but they've hit more than they missed. BF campaigns have almost always missed outside of Bad Company.

Cool to see and well deserved. The game has been an absolute blast so far.

Another thing to keep in mind is that with the way things are going, buying consoles at/close to launch is actually turning out to be cheaper than waiting in the long run. It's odd but I have a feeling that's actually a major reason it's done so well so early.

Damn. This sounds awesome. People just let their personal politics control too much of their lives. On both sides. A real shame. Hopefully if this was in the works the project can be revisited at some point in the future.

Usually I'm at one new game a month unless it's just a really good release month. I do partake in sales though when the opportunity arrives on something I'm interested in.

Guess I'll be firing up E33 again. Looking forward to what this new area involves. That teaser image is very interesting indeed!

Absolutely loving it so far. It just proves yet again how damn good Sucker Punch is as a studio. Just awesome across the board. I honestly can't think of a complaint for it. Just a stone cold great game.

Of course I'll play it. Halo is still far and away my favorite shooter series of all time. Being able to play it on my preferred platform is a thing I never thought would happen!

Has Sony made some mistakes? Sure. "Blowing it" though? Complete nonsense.

That sucks. I love SF6. I love watching SF6 but I'm not paying $40 for a stream. That's just crazy.

It's such a shame. Bully is such an awesome game and still to this day is my favorite from R*. I'd love to be wrong but I just don't see current day R* making anything other than GTA and Red Dead.

The funny thing is the Stars program actually pushed me towards digital purchasing since you could get some store credit which in the end got Sony more of my money. Now I've veered back to buying physical since there's no longer an incentive to buy digital versions outside of convenience.

They are actually making less money off of me as customer from this. An exclusive merch store is not a compelling incentive for a rewards program. Simple as that.

It's on my radar for sure. They are definitely saying all the right things at the moment. Certainly one of the most interesting titles coming up for a multitude of reasons.

This was pretty disappointing I gotta say after the EVO trailer made it seem like this presentation was going to be a bit more substantial. Oh well. Maybe next time. It certainly makes me think this game is still very far out from release though.

Not really too much for me. Wolverine looks cool. Saros, I'll probably pass since I never was really interested in Returnal and it looks pretty similar to say the least. Nothing in the middle really caught my attention either. Good month for PS+ though at least.

Edit: Oh yeah Crimson Desert getting a date is cool though. I'm interested to see how that one turns out.

Very cool looking. Her burnout pressure is probably going to be obnoxious with all the side-switching flippy-dippy kicks she's got going on. Maintaining drive meter against her will be a must to have access to parry!

I never got around to the Christmas stuff they added last year so I'm planning on jumping in around December this year instead. So much content added to this game, and all free for the most part!

Stellar Blade is literally the gift that keeps on giving.

Well. Well. That is certainly interesting. The game does look cool but I was hesitant to jump in specifically because I don't want to engage in another gatcha. Cosmetic only though? That gets my attention for sure.

Eek. No thanks. Bring back Stars!

I really enjoyed Fall Guys a lot. Sure I don't play it anymore very much but I have some very fond memories playing it with friends.

If this is the end it's had a good run. Much better than the vast majority of live service games out there.

So excited to play it! Can't wait to go adventuring with Estelle and Joshua once again!

It's unfortunate but at least it isn't a massive reduction. I'll take it over another price increase.

A shame to hear but if the studio's heart isn't in it then I'd rather they work on something else they are passionate for. But for the love of God can we at least get an Infamous 1&2 collection on PS5? I'd buy it in a heartbeat!

I think Ghost still would have done well for itself but the delay certainly doesn't hurt. 😄

This movie will be glorious no doubt about it.

I didn't really click with the first one so I'm naturally not playing this. Good for the folks that have been waiting for for it though.

Love me some Bond and this looks like just what the doctor ordered. Good showing IO. Consider myself sold.

I would certainly make an effort to see this if it comes around my neck of the woods.

I hate to doom and gloom upcoming games but I just don't see any chance of this ending well. Just sounds so uninteresting to me and judging by the discussion (or lack there of) around this game not many others are interested either.

SC is my favorite of the series so I'm very excited to see it when it happens! 3 is an interesting one for sure though. I can't imagine they would want to leave it at 2 but I would understand them skipping 3 if the demand just isn't there.

Hopefully 1 & 2 do well enough to warrant 3 as well so we can have the whole series playable on modern hardware.

I have it installed but I'm still juggling both Trails through Daybreak 2 and Mafia Old Country. I'm looking forward to playing it when I get the chance though!

Some might call that bad acting. I call it high art.

"He not the hero Gotham deserves. But he is the one it needs right now."

As long as the courses aren't as big and wide as MK World then I think Sonics actually got a real good shot here. World is fine but it's just kinda...well boring. There's barely any ramming going on because of it. Not a lot of chaos. Not something I'd expect to see from a kart racer. I liked 8 much better.

I'm looking forward to trying Sonic this weekend.

With the way the lore is setup they could really kind of go all sorts of different routes with it. Regardless the moment we see their Sandfall logo pop up in a game showcase...talk about a mic drop moment.

I don't think I'll be playing the campaign right away as I recently replayed it a few years ago. I'll definitely be hopping into some multiplayer though. Super cool to see Gears on PS. I've always been a Gears fan but PS is my preferred console so I'm stoked that I can play Gears on it!

One of the GOATs right here! This was my favorite era for shooters and Gears 1 has aged like a fine wine in my eyes. Just a stone cold classic. I always wanted Gears and Halo on PS but figured it would never happen yet here we are.

I might need to pop some champagne for the occasion! Cmon Cole Train! Let's go Locust hunting again!

It's no secret what's happening here...

That said though, Mirage is awesome so I'll definitely hop in for this. It's free after all so why not?

Sounds awesome. They fixed the few issues I had in the original with the streamlined camouflage system and improved controls. A classic has had new life breathed into it. I couldn't ask for much more than that.

@Bentleyma
It's out right now actually. I'm downloading it now.
