I think push square really need to review their 'review' process. So because Sammy got out of bed the wrong side one day and "wasn't really in the mood for it" the game is scored a 6, which can definitely influence peoples likelihood of purchasing and supporting the developer.

At least have two or more staff have input into reviews and even have opposing scores.

@hypnotoad absolutely. Used to love cex, but their ps5 scalping prices have really put me off ever shopping there, and I'm finding new copies of games at base are cheaper than 2nd hand at cex nowadays (ratchet, returnal etc)

In the UK you can buy a new physical copy from base for £23 or second hand from cex for £22 so not a great sale by any stretch of the imagination.

Finished my second playthrough last night, first time on ps5. The ps5 patch has done wonders. Enjoyed the story a lot more this time around, though still no need for 'that' scene

Haptic feedback, adaptive triggers?

There must be a lot of digital ps5's out there - that's the only explanation for this

Why would this be a free upgrade when ghost of tsushima, death stranding, spiderman, gta5 and no doubt last of us will be charged? Have CDPR explicitly said it will be free?

It'll have to be around the £30 mark for me to consider giving this a go

Very generous pricing, that's much better.
Sold my ps4 copy though, once was more than enough for me with this game

@Brydontk which surely renders that point pointless then

So your excitement is dampened because:

-it was delayed due to covid (and not forcing crunch)
-there has been too much coverage/content shown (none of which you had to watch)
-there won't be a playstation sequel (could say that about every single game released)

Mine are god of war and gran turismo.....

Already into second half of the year, so many on this list I can't see making it. Haven't seen a single screenshot of witcher 3 either.

I'd rather them crack on and get on with it rather than spending time and resources releasing gta 5 yet again

I found outerworlds boring, I bought it based on the review from this site. Respawning enemies, confusing map and waypoints. Fallout 4 is much better in my opinion.

Can't wait for the comments section when people have to buy gta5 for the third time

Certainly reminds me of the opening scenes (albeit in daylight). I guess nico can go home after today's shoot is over

What do these indie games have in common - they are digital. Sony has everyone by the balls

@Shepherd_Tallon yeah i did get emotionally invested in panam then by the end it's just nothing. There's a great game lurking in there somewhere....

@Shepherd_Tallon you didn't fall in love with Panam or Judy?!

Oh come on, who forgot to buy their weekly copy of GTA5?!

@batwing47 the lack of whistle blowing just seems odd though, the amount of devs and marketing people that must have known the state of it and were against it being released, you'd have thought some stories would have came out by now

Random question, but are mandatory loading screens usually counted within the 'total time to complete a game' or just the time actually spent playing?

I wonder if the lack of loading on ps5 will make all games appear shorter.

Once they've got the trailer sorted they'll start work on the game

Urgh multiplayer.
My brief experiences of multiplayer are disgusting angry teens being idiots and if you don't play the game for 20hrs a day at release theres no point even trying to join in and catch up later. Oh and a money pit.

That said my favourite growing up was team fortress, damn I miss that

Love reading the comments on abandoned articles, everybody treading carefully enough to be able to say 'I knew it' whichever way this goes

Did they outsource the smoke on the campfire in the 'photo realistic' trailer? Because that needs some work

Has anyone here played the pc version? Assuming better visuals, more npc's and traffic? The core gameplay and mechanics are surely identical.
I do fear many people are holding out for a ps5 version that will still not live up to their expectations and the hate will start again.

For the record it's a good game, nowhere near a 10 (or a 3). Some great motion cap'd conversations, characters and excellent soundtrack

Been using base.com for a little while now - how come they can sell them so 'cheap' yet presumably still make a profit on them to make it worthwhile.

Just playing through 2 for the second time, it left such a bad taste in my mouth its taken a year to play it again.
On ps5 the 60fps is amazing. I only had a base ps4 so it now also looks like a new game too.
Just at the aquariam with Ellie so I know it won't be long until I'm forced to play as 'her'....

The one time my habit of trading in physical games after completion comes back to bite me

Must be a nightmare trying to find the trigger and then fix some of these bugs where they only occur for some people. I completed the game and had none of these quest related bugs.

Do you regret the line 'the good and the not so bad' back in December?

https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2020/12/hands_on_this_is_how_cyberpunk_2077_runs_on_ps5_ps4_pro_and_ps4

They can't be expecting many digital sales when it reappears surely? Anyone who really wants it already has it (and now probably far cheaper than it'll cost on the PS store) and those with a digital ps5 will wait for the native ps5 release.

@vapidwolf @nessisonett

Doesn't get more high profile than channel 5.....

Haven't they only recently split the team into two (or maybe not even done so yet) with half working on cyberpunk and half on witcher? I think this will be a long way off yet

I wonder if Jim Ryan bought a faulty tesla he'd expect a refund?

Will this make the Williams go faster?

Hoping this doesn't go the route of rockstar and the cash it generates means they no longer feel the need to make a new game

@Dezzy70 oh I have one (argos December) and another from smyths in December for my mate - glad those days of constantly refreshing websites are long gone!

Just checked CEX UK and the 4 nearest stores to me (talking a 10 mile radius) are hoarding 14 ps5's and still trying to sell them for £750

Anyone (like myself) that ever questioned what the fuss is about between 30/60fps, try out the latest 'the last of us 2' patch which let's you switch between them in the options menu on the fly.

Could the ps5 handle fidelity mode @60fps and its a dev issue, or are we already seeing hardware constraints that will lead to a ps5 pro in the not too distant future?

@Old-Red I've had this issue a few times since the last update. Controller has plenty of life left when turning the console fully off, when I come to play the next day it won't even turn the console on without being plugged in. Something is causing it drain at random overnight

I'd guess the video was put together by devs at some stage in production to try and help their cause of telling the execs, who clearly weren't listening to them, that the game needed to be delayed (again). Obviously didn't work.

That said, I'm very much in the 'got it, played it, really enjoyed it' camp

@DeepSpace5D GoW, Horizon and GT7 are not ps5 exclusives? I think that's the point he/she is making

So will these games on both platforms be £50 for ps4 and £70 for ps5?

@nessisonett tempted to give this a go then, been a few years since having an F1 game pretty sure my last one was Button and alonso at mclaren. Could be the last decent one before EA ruin it....

Is this worth getting without a racing wheel? I sold mine a while back as I didn't have the room for it

Surely the number of crashes are falling as fewer people play the game over time. Is this a playstation only graph? Pretty useless graph really.

That said, on ps5 I really enjoyed it despite its shortcomings. If you trash the game without having played it then your opinion holds no weight.

If this has respawning enemies like the last one then I'll pass

Having only played and completed it recently for the first time, it'll need more than a lick of paint/ray tracing to bring it up to modern day standards.

Looking good. Doubtful it'll hit that release date but we've waited this long so not a big issue if its delayed.
Glad there is a native ps5 version. Hopefully it won't be held back too much by the 'old' generation
