I loved the original game, looking forward to seeing all the extra detail they add now.

Very impressive, I wonder if the European developer is Housemarque.

I would like to think Sony are smart enough to not react to a few bored souls on social media. Those toxic playgrounds rarely have anything of value to offer society, be it Twitter or whatever.

To be fair, a fair number of people bought Dreams months ago for the early access.

Played a little bit of Metro Exodus earlier, some really fun story telling in there.
Might play some more of Dreams later, despite the shortness of Art's Dream, it's still taking me a few sessions to get through it, loving it.

PixelJunk™ Monsters 2 is down to £2.49, very tempting at that price.

I'd love Blazing Chrome, would most definitely make my day

It's more the fact that we're coming to the end of a generation soon and there are a considerable amount of high quality games coming out, combined with so many top games in the backlog, I find a certain ruthlessness is required at this point, as there's no chance there will be enough time to play every game that looks interesting.

I've been jumping between so many games in the last few days. Metro Exodus, Zombie Army Trilogy, Duck Tales Remastered and Hollow Knight. Can hopefully get a good go on Dreams soon as well.
I usually try to focus on just the one game at a time, haha.

@Neolit
I skipped Detroit so that is interesting to know. Good to know I didn't really miss out there.

Just waiting for the day they do this with Persona 4 for PS5.

@Col_McCafferty
I commend you for not being upset, not worth losing sleep over this sort of thing. I do understand the argument that there are considerably more complex and involved games out there that would be the more obvious choice for the bigger awards.

But I often find the most fun I have is with the smaller indie games, and sometimes a short indie experience will stay with me much more than a long campaign from a big budget triple A game, so it does please me to see them not being overlooked for this sort of thing.
Controversial perhaps, but it does generate some interesting discussion.

@Flaming_Kaiser
I see your point. And even worse it celebrates geese misbehaving, so I think I can see why you used the word worst. Very apt.
What's next? A game where a frog tries to dodge traffic while it crosses a busy road, putting the poor drivers in danger? Let's hope not.

I wasn't expecting all this indignation in the comments. I've yet to play the goose game but it looks very entertaining and different.

Why are people so upset over this? Bad experience with a goose while having a picnic by the river? Certainly no laughing matter. Let me know which goose it was and I'll endeavor to have words with them.

Agreed that Crimes & Punishment was very good, hope we get to see another game as good as that.

I love that we've seen multiple resi games where zombies use chainsaws. But we draw the line at swords.

Will it be able to play Commodore 64 and Atari ST games?

I hope they do make a big effort to be eco-friendly, a new generation is a good opportunity to do that.

What if he actually means the Phantom Thieves stole PS5? ZOMG!!@!

Awesome trailer, good spot. I've not attempted to create anything personally, but really interested to see what masterpieces await.

I wonder what discount I can get if I trade my ps4 and psvr towards it.

Great news, Astrobot was absolutely fantastic. Sort of like The Witcher 3, by which I mean it really spoils you by how much it raises the bar.

@wiiware
Maybe try psnprofiles, you don't even need an account to use that site.

@get2sammyb
What are your thoughts on re-reviewing games?
I imagine when this game arrives on ps+ next week that empty lobbies should no longer be an issue and as I understand it, the game received numerous patches giving quality of life improvements since it's arrival.

So assuming an influx of new players doesn't overburden the servers and everything goes smoothly, it might make for quite a different experience now.

Yes, agreed, a brilliant soundtrack. I loved the soundtrack for Pyre as well, so good, I purchased the music for both separately from their website. Adds so much to the experience. Really looking forward to their next game.

Unexpected, I thought this was selling far too well to ever be on ps+. Maybe it's to prepare people for next gen Bandicoot?

Sounds right up my street, bit of a backlog though at the moment so... one to look forward to.

How do you rate the soundtrack?

@TheBuzz
We did get 5 LBP games to be fair if you include the PSP & vita. It was a good run.

@Stu13
As amazing as a Legacy of Kain remake sounds, I believe it's owned by Square Enix. So it seems unlikely.

Very exciting if true, would be brilliant to play a remade Demon's Souls as a launch game for PS5. Not too long until we find out I'm guessing.

I enjoy Kingdom Hearts but I'm not a fan of the overarching story being so needlessly convoluted.
And they go on a bit too much sometimes about Hearts, shadows and light, etc. One of those situations where someone can talk for an hour without actually saying anything.
Hope they improve on that when KH4 comes out in 10 years.

Housemarque are awesome, looking forward to seeing what they show. A shame about Stormdivers, hopefully they can use some of the work on that and it's not wasted.

I am properly stuck into Valkyrie Chronicles 4 at the moment, loving it. Also had a go on Blood & Truth, it's good, but it's no Astro Bot Rescue Mission.

Ah yes, the very lucrative business practice of exploiting children by teaching them to gamble.
How absolutely vile.

@Col_McCafferty
That's true, there aren't many games based in a historical setting on consoles. Apart from the big hitter, Red Dead Redemption and your FPS WW1 / WW2 games there's not much competition for AC.

My personal favourite is Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishments, really fun and clever little game.

The copy & paste issue isn't a total deal breaker on it's own, but coupled with such uninteresting narratives and poorly written characters.. there are plenty of far more interesting games worth my time.

I understand the strategy, big names will sell huge numbers regardless of the quality up to a point. You get that in the music and movie industry as well. So minimum effort, maximum profit.
Nice to see they've admitted there's a problem, that's the first step.

Some of the games created in LBP2 & 3 that were given awards by MM were incredible, so I'm very much looking forward to seeing the brilliance on offer this time round.

Poor bloke, they should have let him finish the round. Just think of his poor team mates being left on their own mid match. Brutal.

So this will be relatively close to the PS5 launch then.. as excited as I am to play this, waiting on a suped up next gen version seems like an option well worth considering now!

Knowing Cage, a few of those surprises will be something altogether creepy and massively inappropriate.

@nessisonett
Heh, I had a similar reaction when I saw how many hours I'd put into Apex Legends. These games have so many addictive qualities. Same as you, I enjoyed it but glad to be putting my time into other games and other hobbies now. Always good to switch things up a bit, keep things interestng.

It's going to be a very strong year for video games, I'm going to have a hard time chosing which games to play!
Nice list, Disco Elysium sounds rather special.

E3 is overrated. They became greedy, so it's no surprise Sony found smarter, better ways to do business.

In my mind if it releases on both new and old hardware, then it's not a next gen game.
If current hardware is perfectly capable of running it then I'll be assuming it's not making much use of the new tech that's been made available.

I think most people, when they buy a new console would be excited to play a game that really shows what the new kit can do. Otherwise it would be rather anticlimactic.

Impressive work as always, looks like a really nice level of polish.

Looking forward to the review, seems to have potential.

Show Spelunky 2 some love!
Three votes is difficult though, it's true.
Dreams and Cyberpunk get my other two.
Sorry Doom & FF7, I love you really!

Nooo, I loved mercenaries mode.
And giving Nemesis a good kicking for some awesome loot was always fun.

@Ralizah
You got my attention when you mentioned the Valkyria Chronicles' team. First I heard of Sakura Wars, will keep an eye out for it, cheers.

Good news, I was hoping for online co-op though.
