Just played it and it’s awesome very surprised at how good it is.

I think it’s a good thing as more brothers and sisters will make the most important decision of all - To become a Helldiver

@MrPeanutbutterz Yea it did feel like they were really pushing the graphics. I remember the collectibles being really detailed and there being a real focus on the graphics.
I really liked the setting tho - with the knights of the rounds, steam punk tech and Victorian London setting. Had great potential and I would have been all in for a sequel or trilogy. I guess tho if you didn’t like that then it didn’t really have much going for it.

@LogicStrikesAgain Exactly - would be cool to have something to look forward to and generate a bit of buzz and excitement but if there is nothing much to show, not much point

Whilst I don’t doubt the gamepass effect and agree, IMO I also think the timing of the release and current state of pricing has a bit to play too.

I would love to to pick up Doom DA and also Indian Jones but I picked up oblivion and have a switch 2 preordered. I know if I picked up Doom now I would be rushing it and also would stop playing it on 5th. I’m close to the platinum in Oblivion, I’m slowly working on and enjoying that and maybe in a few months I’ll pick up Doom or wait for the sale. It looks awesome tho.

Why don’t they just say;
Xxx sold for each of ps5, Xbox, PC and then xxx played through game pass. They clearly know the numbers it’s so weird there is such smoke and mirrors with what they actually are.
I used to find the numbers interesting but now what they publish is meaningless.

Not specifically aimed at one company as it’s like an industry standard now.

Also I think Doom DA looks awesome and will pick it up at some point.

I’m playing it at the moment and really enjoying it. Not my sort of game normally but thought I’d give it a go as it’s a bit cheaper and is well regarded. Glad I did, playing through the mage guild quests at present and loving the side stories.

I’m not normally one for these sort of games but I played through Skyrim on switch years ago and really enjoyed it. I’m really tempted to get this tho, looks cool and I like the fact it’s a bit old school too

I’m not one for live service but I’ve put over 220 hrs into helldivers so will definitely be open to giving this a go come September. Love the minimalist/clean art style and design, IMO looks really cool

@dskatter It was the most random game I could think of from my childhood lol, it came on a cart pack in with a terrible soccer game and a circus game. It was awful but I loved it at the time.

Back on topic I think marathon looks cool, art style and shooting mechanics are on point 👌🏻

@dskatter Err… bet you’ve never played Flimbos Quest on the C64?

I’ve got the castlevania Requiem collection to start, might also download the crash Nsane trilogy as it’s in the sale. I was going to get indie next week but I preordered a Switch 2 so I have to watch the coins.

@GeeForce I agreed it’s not the same, if you go to the arcade it’s a play and done if you buy a game you expect to keep playing it over and over. It’s literally how the home console market has been since day one and the whole point of the hobby. Bringing the games from the arcade home. Ubisoft can do one

Love the style of this game, hope it’s good

Going to see it on Friday with my daughter, I hope it’s better than Dog Man 🤞🏻

@AhmadSumadi Never a truer post typed

Nintendo really went there didn’t they lol! Did not see it coming with the Switch 2!

@Aussiemike90 Totally agree, I’ll buy Doom and GTA6 day one as I really want them, but games like Atom Fall I’ve not and will wait for a discount. I used to be more trigger happy and buy more day one but it’s a more expensive hobby now. Smaller games like Shinobi and that T2 retro game if they are around the 20 mark I’ll still probably be more inclined to pick up day one but the bigger games I’m more hesitant these days

For me - Mario kart looks awesome but everything, GameCube games are cool, I really like the idea of the donkey kong game but didn’t warm to it and then there’s nothing else I like the look of at the moment. Also I didnt think the 3rd party games looked all that good. That coupled with the price makes it a difficult one to pull the trigger on for day one.

I think the fact that India Jones, Doom, THPS, MGS and GTA6 (hopefully) are all coming on PS5 this year makes it easier just to wait and see.

Robocop is awesome, I picked it up in one of the first sales. It’s such a good old school throwback, solid, good but nothing amazing or ground breaking. It’s a fun, good old fashioned game tho. I played it, got the platinum and will probably never play it again but it was fun all the same. Definitely worth a play through. Will definitely pick up the next one too

@Northern_munkey So true, I’d buy all of those games.

Can’t wait for this, really excited

Helldivers 2 as I can’t stop playing it, one of my all time favourites. I’ll also be playing through TMNT hyperstone heist with my daughter tomorrow.

@JustMyOpinion it’s awesome mate, totally recommend it. I’ve played it regularly since launch, platinumed it and still play it most days. I’m not normally a fan of live service style games or battle passes but Helldivers 2 is an exception.

Totally getting this, loved rogue city. Can’t wait

When I was 12 and heard there was a T2 game coming out this is what was playing out in my mind … awesome to the max

Price arguments aside, this is an amazing game and anyone who hasn’t played it should pick it up. Totally recommend

@LogicStrikesAgain Totally would 😂 but I’d like Sony to be releasing more than they are 🫤

Not for me. Personally I think Sony should focus on making great first party games again/get them out more often #whereAreTheGames

Microsoft will be releasing more games this year than Sony by the looks of it lol

This looks cool, I played the first one up until the point you leave the first main area on ps4 at launch and then stopped playing it. I don’t know why.

I think I need to pick it up again on ps5 as it’s in the sale at the moment

Spider-Man 4 will have 4 Spider-Mans? Crazy

@Markatron84 Day 5 purchase then

Definitely looking forward to this, I clearly remember playing 1, 2 and 3 but I’m not sure if I played 4 as my memory is a bit vague - could be as it’s very similar in style, music and box art to the other and also as it was around 20 years ago lol. Day 1 purchase

A trilogy collection on PS5 would be nice

So much they could do to be fair, a game with the flash and other DC heroes done right would be really cool. JLA type game

@BrotherFriede Bags of ‘swag’ the villains throwing big bombs around with the word ‘bomb’ on the side. Chief Ohara and all the wacky villains like king tut and Egg head. That would be awesome, bright colourful graphics and they could reuse the old voice work from the episodes to credit all the old actors who have passed. Sadly that’s too creative and we’ll get another live service game

I picked up 1 of them and I have been looking at upcoming games on this site and others.

I did look at dynasty warriors and sniper elite but they are not something I want to drop the money on. I’m thinking of picking up black myth or silent hill to tide me over. Again not super excited for those on release but I can appreciate they are good games.

It would be nice for Sony to be releasing a bit more is what I’m saying. They’ve scrapped so many projects which could have been really cool. They could even salvage some of the scrapped projects into something simple or a budget release like really basic twisted metal with 6 online maps for 15/20 with no further support or content but we’ll probably never see them.

I just wish Indiana Jones or something big like MGS was out sooner. It just seems like ages until it’s coming out and there’s nothing much im personally excited about at the moment.

Excited for this but there’s nothing out now, why are there no new games releasing now. Current gen sucks IMO and I much preferred the PSOne and Ps2 era. You could pick up a new game every month, plenary of choice and something for everyone. Always something exciting on the horizon.

I’ve been gaming ever since late 80s/early 90s so I know games are more complex and expensive to make etc.

But instead of this silliness with live service we could have had smaller remakes of things like:
Cool Boarders, Killzone, resistance
G police, Motor storm, Destruction Derby
Loaded, The Getaway, wipeout
Legend of Dragoon, Ace combat, parappa
Twisted metal, Socom, X squad etc

These are just some of many old Sony IPs or IPs associated with PlayStation.

Smaller re releases/modern ports with a high res graphics or smaller sequels would not take long to make. Why aren’t games like Killzone 1 up on PSN yet?!

The next game I’m looking forward to is Doom in May. 😕

Instead it’s a boring wait for the next game. Gutted MGS isn’t coming out until later in the year. We needed snake in March or April at the latest. Sssssssnnnnnaaaaakkkkeee

@Thelegend159 ‘Dun Dun Da Da Dun Dun’

@naruball Thanks I don’t remember any of that with this one, but then it’s so common nowadays that someone says something is woke I probably just ignored it lol

@nessisonett What was the controversy surrounding this one at launch? I can’t remember or recall anything. I do remember the assassins creed shadows controversy but that’s been much more recent. On a side note I did like the demo for POP but never felt the desire to pick it up.

@Blauwe_Chimay The MK game boy version was a crime against gaming lol 😂

@AdamNovice Yea I can imagine it’s not great on a handheld. I had it back when it first come out and up to season 1/2 I had nearly all of the achievements. I loved the original KI in arcades and snes, the characters have a real appeal to them, up there with Street Fighter and MK in my opinion

@lazarus11 It definitely was bad, I played through it on my series s when I had one and finished it. Really wanted to see the good in it, played it to the end but it just kinda ‘sucked’.

@Blauwe_Chimay The game boy port was surprisingly playable at the time, one of those impossible ports done well.

Scrolling through the comments and seeing the KI love, it’s so awesome, really hope it comes. Rare replay too with 007 Goldeneye please.

@AdamNovice Don’t know if you’ve played it or not but it’s really good, I loved it and would definitely pick it up on PS5.

I skipped this back in the day and my mate picked it up on the DC, I bought so may DC games back then but passed on this one and always regretted it. Would definitely pick this up as it’s a bit of a cult classic

@Jacko11 lol 😂
