I haven’t been able to get a straight answer to an important question- can you play a game on the Portal while watching something on a streaming service using the PS5?
I think we as gamers are getting too picky re showcases- we all want different games and are irritated when they’re not announced. This was evident in the YouTube comments
One problem I had was that the adventure games looked good but derivative of others. Nothing really stood out. And I don’t get why time was given to a PS game coming to PC
I’d like Hogwarts Legacy to be expanded, not just in terms of the world but maybe something like a morality system. There’s no consequences to exploring forbidden areas or using unforgivable curses
@twitchtvpat I know that, wasn’t expecting anything brand new but maybe a few updates on games that weren’t pre announced, like Death Stranding 2, the new persona games etc. Sony need to learn from Nintendo Directs about how to keep viewers engaged
@Nalodart yeah I imagine it can be completed in a few days if you did little else, not much challenge. Glad I played it but not gonna bother replaying it as I have with other, better games
@Casco I have, took me a month or so, wasn’t in any hurry. The difficulty is an issue, I’m rubbish at games and I only died twice when I wasn’t paying attention. Depends on how much value you think you’d get from a second playthrough, maybe leave it a bit so you forget the story?

@thefourfoldroot1 it doesn’t seem to have much of a point then

When a games difficulty makes it seem like a job or chore in that you have to work at it to grind and ‘git gud’, I lose interest

My tactic for these polls is to vote no for what you want to happen, and vice versa. Generally works

Re: The Next Naughty Dog Game Its 'Most Thrilling Yet', Says Neil Druckmann
I don’t mind people being this confident if they’ve earned it
Re: Gaming Subs Like PS Plus, Xbox Game Pass Aren't Growing At All
Because the games aren’t great- a lot of filler. More trials and more classic games would be good too, to keep people subscribed to the higher tiers
Re: Alan Wake 2 Yet to Recoup Dev, Marketing Expenses as Tencent Raises Stake
Make a physical edition. And a special physical edition.
Re: Stellar Blade (PS5) - A Stellar PS5 Debut Destined to Become a Fan Favourite
Not sure it’s worth full price, seems derivative of Nier, Bayonetta and Soulslike games

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Skull and Bones?
@ShogunRok not a promising sign. Thanks for the reply
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Skull and Bones?
Why isn’t there a review of this game?
Re: 13 More Games Coming to PS Plus Extra, Premium This Month
Pretty lame, Sony
Re: Stellar Blade PS5 Pre-Orders Go Live, Two Versions to Choose From
Still on the fence about this game, looks like Nier and a soulslike game had an illegitimate child and never really cared for it
Re: Poll: Will You Be Watching the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth State of Play?

Re: Persona 3 Reload Is the Result of Fan Surveys, Says Atlus
I remember that survey, I was one of the people who took it. I also suggested a Persona FPS and a dating sim. Fingers crossed.
Re: Talking Point: What Do You Want from Sony and PlayStation in 2024?
Sony needs to emulate Nintendo re showcases- have surprises, and make it pacier
Re: Warner Summoning More Harry Potter Games After Success of Hogwarts Legacy
I’d like Hogwarts Legacy to be expanded, not just in terms of the world but maybe something like a morality system. There’s no consequences to exploring forbidden areas or using unforgivable curses
Re: Nick Offerman Wants to Make a Bill and Frank The Last of Us HBO Spin-Off
Loved the episode, it expanded on the game well, but can’t see the point in a whole series
Re: Game of the Year: #1 - Marvel's Spider-Man 2
Yep, agreed. Glad it wasn’t Baldurs Gate 3, that games overhyped and not for everyone. FF16 was another great game but too linear
Re: Game of the Year: Best PS5, PS4 Puzzle Game of 2023
Humanity was just a better looking Lemmings
Re: Persona Studio's Fantasy RPG Metaphor: ReFantazio Looking Slick in Stylish Screens
I’ll wait for a review as it looks too similar to the Persona games, which I love but don’t want a copy of
Re: Nomura Promises Death Won't be Cheated in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
Maybe we can choose who dies. So probably Yuffie.

They’ll get over it when their parents give them their pocket money
Re: Game of the Year: Brett's Top 5 PS5, PS4 Games of 2023
Meh, meh, meh, yeah that was a good one, and back to a meh remake.
Re: The Last of Us Multiplayer Project Is Officially Cancelled
Good, they should focus on the third game
Re: The First Descendant Touches Down on PS5, PS4 in Summer 2024
Lost me at “free to play”

£100? Jog on ……………………………………………….. and did the minimum character limit, you don’t need to whittle on to make a point

Just have to hope that the December games will be an improvement
Re: Venom Spin-Off Game an Option for Insomniac, If Fans Want It
I think we do? There was a PS2 game I think that had that concept, playing as Venom
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Honkai: Star Rail?
Played it, got bored in 20 minutes, deleted it
Re: Haunted Chocolatier Screenshots a Salve to Soothe the Long Wait
A rough release date would be nice, at least the year, but i get that he’s pretty much making an entire game by himself
Re: The Gecko Gods Is a Chill Open World Adventure Crawling onto PS5, PS4 Next Year
I miss Gex. This game might provide some gexual healing
Re: Poll: Was Gamescom Opening Night Live Any Good?
@twitchtvpat I know that, wasn’t expecting anything brand new but maybe a few updates on games that weren’t pre announced, like Death Stranding 2, the new persona games etc. Sony need to learn from Nintendo Directs about how to keep viewers engaged
Re: Poll: Was Gamescom Opening Night Live Any Good?
Some surprises would’ve been nice, bit dull
Re: When Is Gamescom Opening Night Live?
Some news on Death Stranding 2 would be good, but I doubt that’ll happen so soon
Re: Square Enix Bafflingly Backtracks on Final Fantasy 16 Sales, Blames 'Slow' PS5 Adoption
@Nalodart yeah I imagine it can be completed in a few days if you did little else, not much challenge. Glad I played it but not gonna bother replaying it as I have with other, better games
Re: Square Enix Bafflingly Backtracks on Final Fantasy 16 Sales, Blames 'Slow' PS5 Adoption
@Casco I have, took me a month or so, wasn’t in any hurry. The difficulty is an issue, I’m rubbish at games and I only died twice when I wasn’t paying attention. Depends on how much value you think you’d get from a second playthrough, maybe leave it a bit so you forget the story?
Re: Square Enix Bafflingly Backtracks on Final Fantasy 16 Sales, Blames 'Slow' PS5 Adoption
It’s a great game but linear with little replay value. I imagine people are completing it and selling it or trading it in for credit, thereby leading others to buy second hand copies
