It’s a great selection for single platform owners and a bit weak if you’re multiplat. I played Nobody what must be a year or two ago on Xbox. Plague Tale is great but I played that on GamePass on release. Evil West is mid at best.
12:30am for the UK!!!? That seems much later than last year I think. I'll just catch the highlights I guess, ***** that.... maybe I'll just watch the 1st hour.
Some of these “updates” should have been in the base game. Doubt I’ll sever go back, after the console launch debacle but at least it’s in a better shape now. I’ll never forgive them for the crappy console vanilla launch, fake world and shoddy AI.
@deathaxe it’s Bethesda and the hype behind Starfield is unreal. They absolutely do need to over market the game. The previous show did wonders to build up hype, we’ll probably see some more stuff soon.
I was completely put off from the game after I saw that first hour leak video. We have a black female lead and someone thought it was a good idea to have her start off in a court case (not her first time either) and then we also find out she has no parents? Come on man, do better.
Joke if a game. I still can’t believe the claims that were made by CDPR on the road to release. It seemed they had a mini-event nearly every week to showcase something. What a disappointment. I feel so sorry for the devs
Nah, given the state of the console launch, I’m not paying a single cent for any Cyberpunk dlc. I still can’t forget playing the game on PS4 and the 50 crashes. It should be free as a gesture of goodwill
There is no need for Deadpool and Iron Man even to be in this game about fighting mythical monsters and demons. Should have just kept it to Strange, Ghost Rider, Magik, Elsa Bloodstone and a few more. I get Deadpool and Iron Man are super popular and could help the game sell but I'd rather just see the actual teams from the comics.
@Grimwood Agreed, it's the casuals that will be the make or break of this game. Hardcore will buy regardless, even if the game somehow doesn't turn out to be good.
@Neverwild How about “we believe in generations”, straight after MS announcing their games would also be available on Xbox One for a few years (after Series X released). He knew full well that Horizon and God of War were both releasing on PS5 and PS4 but lied through his teeth for a little clout.
@ryanburnsred Because they have spent 69 bill to own the IP? The Minecraft acquisition pales in comparison. COD is too big of a juggernaut, it wouldn’t die lol (it would also be on PC). It’s a system seller and would greatly tip the scales in Xbox’s favour. Plus all titles would be “free”, so GamePass would continue to be the best deal in gaming history.
@AdamNovice It is a favour of course, would you rather 0 years after the deal expires? Let’s not pretend like Sony wouldn’t be doing this if the roles for reversed and they had that kinda cheese. You don’t spend £69 billion to continue to play ball with your competitors.
That's a bummer but would rather this game release when ready. I hope they keep the card format and release a decent game. Kind of worried about the number of times it's been delayed though.
It just released, calm down lol. It's like those articles that say "xyz game is number one on Twitch"! Then it disappears into the ether a few weeks after. Let's see how the game does after a month or two

Nah no thanks
Re: What Time Is The Game Awards 2023?
@Quintumply Lol I must have a short memory. Maybe I'll get a snooze in beforeand, if I can be bothered.

This is class
Re: Poll: Is God of War Ragnarok Still One of Sony's Best Games, One Year Later?
It's one of the best, certainly suffers from bloat though.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name?
I'm playing on GamePass, loving it so far!
Re: Jujutsu Kaisen's Long-Awaited PS5, PS4 Game Looks Exactly Like You Expect
@ShadowofSparta Yeah they’re all just cookie cutter arena fighters.
Re: Hands On: Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 Update Is an Outstanding, Game-Changing Overhaul

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Has Ray Tracing at 60fps on PS5
The way it should be. Options.

E Honda, how about no
Re: Preview: Forspoken on PS5 Feels Like a Weird Tech Demo

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Dev Acknowledges Linear Story Criticism, Says It's 'Justified'

Re: Hands On: Is Marvel's Midnight Suns Any Good on PS5?
I hope they sort out the graphics, the rest looks ok

Re: Talking Point: What Are Your Thoughts on Protagonists Discussing Puzzles?
I don't mind it, sometimes the solution is not so clear so appreciate the odd hint now and then. Not something worth getting annoyed over
Re: Final Fantasy 16 Is Exclusive to PS5 for Six Months, Sony Confirms
Extremely silly games to be playing, especially with Microsoft holding the keys to Activision/Blizzard IPs.
Re: Deadpool Is Demanding to Be in Marvel's Midnight Suns, in Typically Meta Fashion
@nessisonett Glad I'm not the only one!

Re: PS Plus Premium's Logic Doesn't Even Make Sense to Sony
Shambles of a tier, Sony have been taking a lot of L's. I hear PS Stars is lacking as well.
I can't belive they (assumingly) reviewed the services Nintendo offer + Xbox's Rewards and thinking this iteration of PS Stars was still a good idea.
Re: Incredible Visual Novel 13 Sentinels Announces 'Special' 3rd Anniversary Show
Truly fantastic game, great story and I loved the tactical combat too. 10/10
Re: Talking Point: We Need to Discuss This Horizon Zero Dawn PS5 Remaster
Absolute waste of resources. I hope it flops and makes Sony think again about remastering 5 yr old games, ridiculous.
Re: Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster for PS5 Reportedly in Development
Really can't help themselves right now, can they. What a waste of efforts. The game is what 4-5 years old? There is no need.
Re: Hardware Review: Sony INZONE H9 - Taking Your Audio Experience to the Next Level
What's the audio like when watching tv and films? The Pulse 3D wireless ones are rubbish for anything other than gaming.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Just Smashed The Witcher 3's All-Time Concurrent Player Record
@Smash41 Agreed. It's such a shame, I hear the police AI still have Goku's instant transmission ability.
Re: Mini Review: The DioField Chronicle (PS5) - Dull Characters in an Intriguing Strategy RPG
@ShogunRok Ugh that sucks and has completely killed any interest I have. Doubt I'd even buy on a deep sale
Re: Mini Review: XIII (PS5) - Improvements Can't Save This Remaster Redo
@Arnna No one. The original game was still good
Re: Magik Will Have You Thinking with Portals in Marvel's Midnight Suns
That's pretty cool. I really hope this game is good

@GreatAuk It's a disgrace
Re: Toss a Coin to the Third Season of Netflix's The Witcher
Why the need to mention RE at all? That was confirmed canned several weeks ago
Re: Devoted Diablo Players to Be Selected for Diablo 4 Closed End Game Beta
@Grimwood Agreed, it's the casuals that will be the make or break of this game. Hardcore will buy regardless, even if the game somehow doesn't turn out to be good.

@UltimateOtaku91 Can you also tell me the lottery numbers for November, mr future man? Lol
Re: Talking Point: What Do You Make of Microsoft and Sony's Call of Duty Quarrel?
@Sequel Lol assets seized? That's a bit much now, pal.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for September 2022?
I've already got KOV XV, is Granblue even worth downloading?
Re: PlayStation Bites Back At 'Inadequate' Call of Duty Offer from Microsoft

I think the three year deal is fair personally.

Penny Blood looks interesting for sure
Re: Rollerdrome (PS5) - Just As Good As Tony Hawk's Pro Skater

Re: Gamescom Opening Night Live Stream Is Somehow Two Hours Long with Over 30 Games
No thanks. I'll just watch the trailers instead
Re: Marvel's Midnight Suns Delay Could Mean a 2023 Release Date on PS5, Later on PS4
That's a bummer but would rather this game release when ready. I hope they keep the card format and release a decent game. Kind of worried about the number of times it's been delayed though.

Looks interesting at least
Re: Poll: Did You Ever Use PS5 Accolades?
I had no idea accolades were a thing
Re: Would You Pay $45 for an Overwatch 2 Character Skin? Blizzard's Curious to Know
The poll went about exactly how I expected. Overwatch is old news and charging too much for skins would be suicide.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 437
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 this weekend, nothing else matters for me. Up to chapter 2 now and having a real blast, minus those annoying tutorials!
Re: Defy the Wrath of the Gods in Lost Epic, Available Now on PS5, PS4
This looks cool, I'm intrigued. Need to get back into Odin Sphere as well
