@Kidfunkadelic83 Thank you. And dammit! Guess I’m part of the ripped off club!

Love the game, but got off the treadmill awhile ago when they started charging for expansions AND season passes. Now to get “all” of the content, you have to spend around $100 a year and that’s just to steep for what I’m getting.

Digital Foundry know their stuff. If they say it’s comparable to PS4, then that’s the case. Switch 2 fans are just in denial. You don’t buy a Nintendo console for its power.

They’re not exactly endearing themselves to their Destiny fanbase, and extraction shooters are pretty niche, so no wonder a lot of people aren’t excited. But it’s Bungie, and they make great shooters, so I’ll give it a shot on a free trial or a beta.

I want to like this, but the fact that PvP is always a part of it and, more importantly, the fact that it sounds like you lose all of your gear if you die makes this likely a pass for me. Will still give it a go for free, but doubt it’s gonna be my next Destiny.

The original trilogy were great games…one of the many reasons I was glad I chose 360 over PS3 back in the day. As long as they include split screen co op for the campaign and horde mode, I’d pick this up. More interested in Master Chief, though, although talk of the collection being incomplete has cooled my enthusiasm.

Sigh. Another roguelike? Enough with the roguelikes!

@KoopaTheGamer Came to say the same thing: the headline is misleading, making it seem like a PS5 version was shown. Gotta get dem clicks!

The eye of Sauron avoiding my home country of Canada for now…

I guess I’ll have to wait for Halo news until June.

@YoureTooSlowBro Thanks for reporting this; I was wondering what kind of state the PS5 version was in; all the reporting I’ve read is about the PC version.

Dear god. More unnecessary remasters? They’ll probably sell very well, sadly. But they save me money…because I don’t buy ‘em!

That’s why I bought a 2 tb expansion drive for my PS5 on day one: even with the touted compression, I knew games were still going to be big and didn’t want to have to constantly juggle installed games.

This seems too niche to appeal to a large audience. And extraction shooters aren’t my thing.But I love Bungie, so we’ll see what they’ve got.

I’m a huge Bungie fan, but I’m just not excited about this one. An extraction shooter? Yawn. Say what you want about Destiny 2, but at least it has a variety of game modes and activities. Maybe I’ll be proved wrong, but I don’t think that this will have the appeal or success of Destiny.

@Jrs1 Was wondering the same thing: is this a complete bundle of everything, or just so far?

Looks cool, if generic.

@Nepp67 Reach is my favourite, with Combat Evolved a close second.

Agree with others in the comments: you really need to have more than a hundred games on your wishlist?! That’s WAY more than I’d ever need!

I should have known they’d be too greedy to release the complete MCC. But as long as the original trilogy is available, that’s not too bad. But I don’t think they’ll release them individually for $70 each. That’s a bit too greedy.

Not sure that I like the emphasis on melee in a shooter, especially Doom.

I thought that Microsoft were encouraged by the sales of those ports? And openly said so? Surely that’s what matters most. And, as mentioned, the upcoming titles (Forza Horizon and Indy) are MUCH bigger titles.

I must admit, I’ve already scored three games that I was circling, so that’s great for me! Dragon Age and Robocop were real surprises.

My guess is whatever it is it’s even further out than Intergalactic, otherwise they would have revealed it instead.

Online PvP extraction shooter? Pass.

@Kumatz Me too! That’s the one series I shed a tear for when I switched back to Sony. Although it sounds like I haven’t missed much post Bungie (I did play Halo 4 and it was pretty mediocre).

I wish more games released demos like they did back in the day. Will definitely give this a spin!

Nice! A good news story, for once!

@darylb24 I’d add “reduced first party output exacerbated by a misguided focus on live service games”

It was kind of fun for awhile, at least to me. I didn’t take it seriously, and thought that the competition was good for gamers.

A damn shame. Titanfall 2 was one of the best shooters I’ve ever played, but Apex just isn’t for me. Would love to see another Titanfall game, or another single player game.

As long as there’s couch co-op for campaign and horde mode, I’m good.

@Balosi Champions of Norrath was my first dungeon crawler! LOVED that game!

Struggled for awhile to get one, due to the disastrous stock shortage. I’d call a local gaming store (remember those?) every few days, and FINALLY scored one a couple of weeks before Christmas. Seeing that awesome boot screen, playing SSX, and watching DVDs…it really felt like what the N64 had printed on the box: the fun machine! The system was home to one of the greatest libraries of games. One of the greatest consoles ever.

Looks cool, if unoriginal. Will keep an eye on this.

@get2sammyb Me neither. I had no doubt it’d be full price. I can’t afford it right now, but I do hope it sells well.

@thefourfoldroot1 That’s my plan! I’ve waited this long…I can wait a little longer.

I’m already admittedly averse to the idea of VR (sat in a room with a headset on just won’t be as comfortable as sitting in front of a nice big OLED). The fact that there’s such a paucity of software makes it even easier to pass over.

Wow! What a shocker indeed! Hate to sound cynical, but it must’ve really tanked (in EA’s eyes anyway). Glad to give it a whirl!

Great! Now hurry up and bring the Master Chief Collection to PS5!

Something should be done. The fact that digital games are more expensive, even though there’s no manufacturing, packaging, or shipping costs is insane. And the “sales” on the PS store are a joke, compared to the past.

Far Cry New Dawn (almost done), Diablo 4, and Dead Space (the remake). The reviewer on this site might want to get his vision checked, saying it doesn’t look much better than a PS4 game…it’s gorgeous! Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I suppose!

From what the fellas at Digital Foundry say, Sony are going to find it difficult to make the PS5 for cheaper, which is how they’ve been able to swing price cuts in the past.

The industry needs to make AA games right now to be sustainable. If that means AA entries in existing, successful franchises then so be it. But the AAA death spiral will just continue if that's all publishers fixate on. It's simply not sustainable. I hope that we see more AA games that are smaller, take more risks, and have shorter development cycles (imagine getting a sequel to a great AA game in just a couple of years?). Time will tell. But something's gotta give or the industry will just collapse again.

Sony has loads of dormant IPs that they could reawaken for use in the family-friendly space. I hope they do. Better than this live service crap that they're thankfully (finally) realizing is generally not going to do the business.

Typical Sony, giving with one hand and taking away with the other. They’ve become really greedy and anti-consumer this generation. Easy skip. Plus there’s a decent PS5 patch if I want to play this again.

@Ken_Kaniff From what I read on the PlayStation blog, it definitely sounds like PvE.

Damn, that sucks. Was really looking forward to a fourth game. The first one sucks on Playstation (bad port, dated design), but Crysis 2's campaign is one of my favourite shooters. Crysis 3 was...OK. Was hoping to see Crysis 4 push the envelope graphically with hopefully some new gameplay ideas.

I guess that they have to kick into high gear since actual first party studios have been farting around and wasting time with GAAS titles.

They haven’t even shown Marathon gameplay yet. How can they be ready to announce Gummy Bears? I know that they could do a cinematic trailer, but still…I’d imagine they’ll show Marathon before anything else. But who knows?
