I never got the fuss about Journey and why everyone praised it despite being a short game with no real gameplay or skill involved. This is the same. More like an interactive screensaver than a game.
I don’t see the point in a DS movie considering there’s enough cutscenes to make a trilogy that would rival LOTR. A slight exaggeration but not by much
I don’t understand the hype about Journey. It wasn’t really a game; it required no skill or effort to complete, which you could do in a couple of hours.
All good choices. What’s odd is there’s no mention of Black Myth Wukong, a game that won the players choice award but which I always thought was mid and overrated. And this was the year of Balatro, a game I’ll probably be playing for the next two years
The PS5 needs more joyful games that are easy to pick up and play like this. Most of its big games were darker and required an hour or two per session to make progress

Re: PS5 Roguelike Let It Die: Inferno Uses a Crapload of Generative AI
I hope people vote with their wallets re AI, which will hopefully stop developers using it and save some jobs
Re: Poll: Five Years of PS5 - How Would You Rate Sony's Console?
The PS6 would have to be something special for me to buy it, not just a more powerful PS6

Hopefully Silksong gets nothing

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for November 2025 Announced
Pretty lame, Sony.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Ghost of Yotei?
Whoever gave this game 1 obviously hasn’t played it
Re: 'It's Selling Like Hot Cakes': Hokkaido Goes Crazy for Ghost of Yotei on PS5
I’d like it to outsell GOT eventually, as I think it surpasses it in every way, but I know that won’t happen due to whiny people
Re: Rumour: New PS5 DualSense Controller Will Feature a Removable Battery
Considering the current controllers need charging pretty much all the time, this could be a good thing
Re: PS5 Fans Anticipate Big State of Play Livestream This Week
Always good to expect disappointment, there might not be a State of Play this week
Re: PS5 Exclusive Ghost of Yotei Is Just Two Weeks Away, So Here's a Gorgeous Cinematic Trailer
Genuine question- is there data showing that the more trailers a game has, the higher the sales?
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Hollow Knight: Silksong?
I don’t get the fuss about it, it’s a generic platformer
Re: Could You Be Persuaded to Watch a Call of Duty Movie?
No. Next question.
Re: Sword of the Sea (PS5) - Stunning Journey-Like Is a PS Plus Extra Hall of Famer
I never got the fuss about Journey and why everyone praised it despite being a short game with no real gameplay or skill involved. This is the same. More like an interactive screensaver than a game.
Re: Poll: 5 Years Later, What Do You Think of Ghost of Tsushima?
Why hasn’t Sucker Punch given us a new Infamous?!
Re: Try Out Anime Fighter Hunter x Hunter on PS5 Right Now
Hunter x Hunter would’ve been a great open world game, instead it’s just Dragonball Fighterz
Re: Talking Point: Do Early Access Editions Go Too Far for Story Games Like Death Stranding 2?
The Death Stranding fanbase is generally quite good at not spoiling things for others. Plus it’s easy enough to avoid spoilers.
Re: PS5's Brilliant New State of Play Breaks Records for Sony
@Jrs1 the games were underwhelming, no big surprises.
Re: PS5's Brilliant New State of Play Breaks Records for Sony
I bet at least a few hundred thousand people dozed off while watching
Re: Poll: How Would You Rate State of Play for June 2025?
Hope Summer Game Fest has better reveals. This was underwhelming

The game is good but too expensive.

Meh we all saw it coming.
Re: Sydney Sweeney Reportedly Set to Star in Split Fiction Movie Adaptation
They’ll probably leave the side stories out, like the one with the pigs
Re: So Much More Death Stranding 2 PS5 Coverage Coming 8th May
Not sure I want to know anymore, already pre ordered it
Re: Stellar Blade's Hyper-Realistic $3,600 Statues Sold Out in Minutes
People complain about the price of the Switch 2 but spend thousands on this?!
Re: Death Stranding Movie Will Be Helmed by A Quiet Place: Day One's Michael Sarnoski
I don’t see the point in a DS movie considering there’s enough cutscenes to make a trilogy that would rival LOTR. A slight exaggeration but not by much
Re: The Last of Us Showrunner Isn't Concerned About Bella Ramsey's Ellie Looking Too Young in Season 2
Bored of people whining about Bella Ramsey. She’s a good actress who nailed the role despite not looking exactly like Ellie
Re: Random: You've Been Pronouncing Balatro Wrong (Probably)
It’s not something one mentions in everyday conversation, I’ll probably stick to the Ba-LUH-tro pronounciation
Re: Best Cheap Games on PS5, PS4
I don’t understand the hype about Journey. It wasn’t really a game; it required no skill or effort to complete, which you could do in a couple of hours.
Re: Intergalactic PS5 Game All About Faith, Religion, and 'Being Lonely'
I’m looking forward to this game, mostly because of the many many whiny people who have already made their minds up about it
Re: 4 Massive PS5, PS4 Games Are At Their Lowest Prices Ever on PS Store
One great game and three forgettable sports games. You raised my hopes and dashed them expertly
Re: Katamari Damacy's Keita Takahashi Returns to PS5 with to a T
Looks weird. I’m in.
Re: Evidence Mounts for Seemingly Inevitable Persona 4 Remake on PS5
4 doesn’t need a remake, the graphics and gameplay still hold up and everyone knows the twist and the secret ending
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii?
Never got into the series due to the long cutscenes and repetitive combat
Re: PlayStation Users Miffed with Sony's Lack of PSN Outage Transparency
*a few whiny PS users are miffed. Fixed the headline. Most of us didn’t care and/or have now moved on
Re: Poll: Did the PSN Outage Ruin Your Gaming Plans Over the Weekend?
Showed how whiny and entitled some people are. Oh no you couldn’t play online games for 24 hours🙄
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 Story Now Complete, Game Is on Schedule
Im going to guess that the title will be Final Fantasy 7: Reunion
Re: Lists of Sony’s Cancelled Live Service PS5 Games Paint a Worrying Picture
Maybe forget the idea of live service?
Re: Rumour: Next State of Play Showcase Set for Next Month
@Czar_Khastik I’ll lower my expectations further and predict some more pointless remasters.
Re: Updated AI Limit PS5 Demo Out Now as Pre-Orders Go Live
Im bored of Soulslikes now but this looks good. May as well try the demo. I wish more full priced games had demos
Re: Horizon Hatred Simmers Once More As Sony Announces Movie Adaptation
I thought the remaster was unnecessary but it’s a great IP and I’m hoping for a third game at some point
Re: Round Up: All of Push Square's Game of the Year 2024 Winners
All good choices. What’s odd is there’s no mention of Black Myth Wukong, a game that won the players choice award but which I always thought was mid and overrated. And this was the year of Balatro, a game I’ll probably be playing for the next two years
Re: Game of the Year: Push Square Readers' Top 10 PS5 Games of 2024
Black Mid Wukong being above Metaphor is a small but still unforgivable failure of democracy
Re: Game of the Year: #1 - Astro Bot
The PS5 needs more joyful games that are easy to pick up and play like this. Most of its big games were darker and required an hour or two per session to make progress
Re: Expect PS Portal's Glacial Rollout of New Features to Continue
More games on the streaming catalogue would be good
Re: Game of the Year: #4 - Stellar Blade
Great game, hoping for a sequel that allows for more exploration and choices.
Re: Game of the Year: Best PS5 Story Game of 2024
@scoobdoo to be fair, Rebirth is bloated too
Re: Game of the Year: #5 - Balatro
@Juanalf I hope I’m wrong! I always assume the worst
Re: Game of the Year: #5 - Balatro
@somnambulance thanks for the reassurance. I forgot about Infinite Wealth.
Re: Game of the Year: #5 - Balatro
Balatro deserves a higher place, and I have a sinking feeling you’ve got Black Mid Wukong in the top 3
