Boss fights against P3 and P4 teams? Take my money!

Just a bit disappointing that it is DLC and not in the base game of Royal.

Probably me overreacting, but this just screams that PS5 is going to be stupidly expensive at launch. I already feel nervous about putting down £300 for a console, let alone £400-£500 that I keep hear being thrown around, so I get real nervous everytime I hear about something that could raise the price.

If they are indeed planning this, I hope they offer an alternative bundle for cheaper without the camera, otherwise it may be a very long time until I buy a PS5. Not in a rush to be fair, I have plenty of PS4 games to play still.

This would suit me fine. I am not personally interested in Final Fantasy VII, but Persona I am all over. Please be true.

Edit: Hopefully it will be late March purely because of the Yakuza binge that I will be doing in the prior month.

If they could get the idea to work I would find this appealing, but for me, it is a case of seeing is believing.

@hulkie Just been trying to find out if it can be disabled, but the website for Shenmue 3 does not appear to say anything, and I cannot find any tweets/messages from the developers saying if this is possible. It may be a case of waiting until closer to the time unfortunately.

That reminds me, I still need to play the first two. Have had them in plastic for a couple of months. Will get around to it eventually.

This is great. Good reason for me to return to my farm on my PS4 now that the new content is in the game.

My personal issue was that with the games announced, I had no clue what was actually meant to be happening in them. Humanity for example, it was not entirely clear to me what was actually happening. I just saw two hoardes of zombies (based on how they moved and fell) running into each other. Wattam is a similar case.

Arise: A Simple Story whilst looking pretty, did not really get me interested in wanting to know more. For some reason, it feels like similar games with the same idea have already been made.

VR was irrelevant, although that is on me rather than Sony due to personal preferences.

The Last of Us 2, and I know I am going to get downvoted for this, but honestly, I could not care less. I did not like the ending to the first one, and even then, didn't feel like it needed a sequel.

The only real thing that I found good was a demo for MediEvil and announcement for Civ VI being released. Although I have never played MediEvil, the fact that there is a demo makes me interested in trying it out. Civ VI was a genuine surprise which I wasn't expecting.

In short, I think the big issue for me is that what was shown was either something we already knew about, or was not well explained with no real surprises at all. Perhaps for me it would of been best to wait until they start talking about the PS5.

I am somewhat interested in this. I will definitely be keeping an eye out on it as we see more. Hoping it turns out great.

"Oh, and apparently, Yakuza: Like a Dragon is going to be longer than previous Yakuza titles, presumably because it's more of an RPG. "

Uhhh, given how long Yakuza is normally, just how long is this game going to be? 200 hours? Not that I am complaining mind, as long it is as fun as previous games.

Unravel 2 looks tempting at £4, but I still need to finish the first one.

Edit: Overcooked! for £4 is also tempting.

This alone makes Warriors Orochi 4 Ultimate worth getting for me. I tend to find crossovers and guest characters make the series worth playing for me as horrible as that may sound.

Gonna go put that preorder in now. I will look forward to Yakuza Month, 2020. February? Never heard of it before.

Got the moves like Joker. Pity about the snooker/pool shot.

I am cautiously optimistic. I would like to know how heat actions and attacks translate into turn based combat, as I am worried battles won't feel as exciting. Nonetheless, based on my experience of Yakuza thus far, I am still expecting great things.

Edit: Good job me, misspelling combat with contact.

Seriously though, it is a pity regarding the movies, but I am still hoping everything will work out. I reckon the games will be fine and will very much look forward to a sequel.

@ShogunRok Well that's annoying. Although I have just read that they are still planning on doing a collection sometime after February. Will probably wait for that.

YEEEES, ******* FINALLY!! THAT'S RAD!!

I feel better now. Thank you Sega for for finally going ahead with this.

I will be cautiously optimistic until this is confirmed. But it is nice to finally hear that Yakuza 3-5 may finally come to PS4 in the west (without PSNow).

60fps every time. It is nice to have the choice though.

I know that people might disagree with me on this and that is fine, but although this is a good thing, it is not something I celebrate. All that has happened here essentially is that the gambling element has been removed, so that the microtransactions are protected against any potential gambling law changes. Not saying that is why Psyonix and Epic have done this as there are worse companies out there such as EA and Activision, but I am pessimistic to say the least that this was done for any reason other than a potential danger to profits...

Damn, the last few years of gaming have made me a "glass half empty" kind of person.

@ZeroAbbadon Yeah, it is more of a wish than anything. The announcement did say it was for something brand new which has not been seen elsewhere, so it would also depend on whether they count Japan as being elsewhere or not.

If Sonic 2020, I am hoping for something similar to Mania than Forces.

At the risk of sounding like a broken record:

Confirmation of Yakuza 3-5 remaster coming to the West would be brilliant. But yeah, could be anything.

I vaguely remember seeing game play of the first title and thinking that it wasn't too appealing, but then again, it must have some sort of appeal if it is still continuing today.

Whoa now, regardless of what game it is, I wouldn't destroy a perfectly good console over it. Give it to me, I'll use it.

Damn, now I want pancakes.

Not too much new stuff in that trailer, though that shot of Sojiro was pretty great.

Going to finally get the platinum for Rayman Legends today (damn challenge mode), then probably Fire Emblem: Three Houses.

@Ralizah They're pretty good guidelines. To be fair, unless it is a Nintendo game (personal preference), I very rarely buy games as soon as they release, so more often than not I do get the games cheap. I think sales is ultimately what makes the problem worst because the temptation is there.

You are also right about buying games because you want them as opposed to hoarding, but I tend to find that some of the most interesting games I have played are games that I would not of thought twice about buying but only got them for sale/collecting purposes. Best example of this for me is the Yakuza series, because although I had heard lots of good things about the series, it never sounded like it would interest me even when I brought Yakuza 0, but now, I am so invested in the series (Almost got platinum for 0 and have got platinum for Kiwami 2, haven't felt the urge to return to Kiwami yet).

I might try to be a little more strict in the future though. =)

@Ralizah This is pretty much me, although I think I am worse in that I do not even control my spending for games, so more often than not, my backlog grows endlessly. I think it also doesn't help that I prefer to complete games than just beat them, so I spend more time on some games than others.

There appears to be a dead man walking... Perhaps related to these "stolen" dreams.

Yakuza 3-5 PS4 please. Cannot say this enough. Let me play those first. Thank you.

I mean I am excited to see this new game, but at the same time, I want to experience all of Kiryu's story. I don't want to just skip to Yakuza 6.

@Porco On top of new areas and content there are also 3rd forms of personas, new/improved battle mechanics (ex. "Show Time" attacks), new social links, dungeons have been redesigned, new character and from what I can gather, partial rewrites of the story. It is a bit beyond the scope of DLC.

Now if you were talking about the Persona dancing games, I could sort of see where you are coming from. But P5R does not feel exploitative or anti-consumer to me. To be fair, it is all in how much individuals perceive the content to be worth.

Some mad volleyball skills there. They seem to really be pushing the new winter part of the game.

I still need to play the first two games, let alone this third one.

It will certainly be interesting to see. The trailer did not inspire much hope, but when I heard they were doing a redesign, I could not help but be curious.

Before I comment I should probably say that I have never played any AC game so I could be looking at this wrong, but from what I have heard, Ubi sell an XP booster which gives 50% more XP permanently upon purchase. The fact that people are making easy quests for XP grinding honestly sounds like a balancing issue (perhaps intentional for monetary purposes) which perhaps Ubi should fix before any 'sanctions' against players.

Yakuza Kiwami 2 is a real good deal if you don't already own it. I might buy A Hat in Time as I have heard good things.

Release date for Europe and North America please Atlus, thank you.

The more I see of this, the more I want to play, despite finishing the original.

@JoeBlogs That's not a bad idea either. Well darn, now I have choices.

Hmmm, I am still missing new game plus trophies. Have everything else but those. This might be an excuse to play it again.

@McGuit Ahh, if that is the case, then great, I can play this soon. Thank you for telling me.

3, 4 and 5 remaster on PS4 please before the spin offs. The only reason I have not yet brought 6 (and also Judgment which I think is releasing today), is that I don't want to miss out on such a huge chunk of the story. Bring it over already.

@GADG3Tx87 I will probably most likely invest in either a 4 or 6TB external soon, I am just waiting to find a good deal then I'll buy. I just find it crazy how much digital I have brought on PS4, though I blame that on the sales.

Part of me is worried about when the PS5 comes, because I know that will be backwards compatible, but I do not know if that extends to digital and if so, will moving hard-drives be seamless.

Quite a few games on sale that I want, but lack of hard drive space (need to upgrade my hard-drive, currently 2TB + Pro's 1TB), and the fact that most of these games I would like physical anyway, means I will mostly pass on this sale sadly. There are some really good deals here though.

I am hoping this means improved framerates for all the titles, and maybe a resolution bump.

The Yakuza games look amazing already so more power may be overkill. On a semi-related note, I wonder if we will find out if/when the remasters/ports for 3, 4 and 5 are coming to the West at E3?

At that price, I might finally bite.

Edit: Not available locally at the moment. But I will probably keep an eye out.

Not really too surprised. I am looking forward to replaying from the beginning regardless.

Not quite what I was expecting... Never saw it coming.
