@sentiententity so it was, I stand corrected. It was still a ‘game’ that you could complete in a couple of hours without any thought, or reflexes needed. Which is probably why it was released with the similar ‘games’, Flower and Flow.
@Dudditz09 well yes, I admitted to being bitter. And devs aren’t ‘ripping off’ consumers by making them pay for the upgrade because upgrading the game costs the devs time and money. It’s just a business doing what a business does
@Svark admittedly I do adopt a bitter tone with my internet comments when drinking. I still maintain my lack of sympathy for PS5 owners considering that despite it nearly being two years there’s barely any exclusives for the console. It’s not easy to pay retail prices due to supply issues and scalpers, you got lucky. I also maintain that because the upgrade from PS4 to PS5 cost Sony money, the consumer should pay something
8 seems right, a great game with a unique concept, carefully crafted, original visuals and gameplay, but not enough variety/longevity to merit a higher score

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 PS5 Releasing in September, Massive Ad Campaign Planned
@get2sammyb that makes sense, still a shame as because I’m a teacher, I don’t get to game a lot until the holidays. It’s a first-world problem I admit

Shame, would’ve been great to play over the summer
Re: Express Yourself with Tchia's Intricate Customization Options and Analogue Photo Mode
How do you pronounce the name of this game?
Re: Express Yourself with Tchia's Intricate Customization Options and Analogue Photo Mode
@Constable_What play this before you play RE4. Will be an odd experience I imagine.
Re: Chill Out with Tchia's Relaxing Assortment of Side Activities
Stray was a nice surprise, looks like this game will be too

Would be nice for Stray to win a couple.
Re: New Tekken 8 Gameplay Trailer Kills It with Jin Kazama
Give us a release date, you cowards!
Re: Preview: Humanity Is a Surrealist Spin on Lemmings in Intriguing PS5, PS4 Demo
Good demo, very weird and vibrant. I wouldn’t pay a lot for this game though, as it’s just lemmings
Re: PS Plus Essential PS5, PS4 Games for February 2023 Announced
Just one time I want the leak to be wrong
Re: Hnngh! Hogwarts Legacy PS5, PS4 Launch Trailer Teases a Truly Magical Adventure
Please don’t be bad, please don’t be bad….
Re: Poll: Did You Buy One Piece Odyssey?
I was hoping the game would have a more involving combat system
Re: Best Indie Games on PS4
Why do people love Journey so much? It’s not a proper game. It requires no thought or reflexes and can be completed in a couple of hours
Re: Free Death Stranding 2 PSN Avatars Can Be Claimed Now
I genuinely haven’t heard the term EMEA and I’m glad it was clarified in the comments
Re: Open the Book on More Hogwarts Legacy PS5, PS4 Gameplay This Week
I really want this game to be good. There’s potential in the idea, but the execution could still be iffy
Re: Tekken 8 Is Jaw-Dropping In First Gameplay Trailer, Complete with Character Reveals
I just want Gon back.
Re: All The Game Awards 2022 Winners
Nice to see Stray get recognition- clearly the best indie with a good style and it was something original
Re: Gotham Knights (PS5) - It's Actually Pretty Good
Gamespot only gave it 4
Re: Valkyrie Elysium (PS5) - Quality Combat Elevates Drab Action RPG
The combat does not rock.

Anyone know what the song is?

Dark Souls 5? 6 if we include Bloodborne. Looks similar enough

Does Cyberpunk work ok on the PS4 now?
Re: Journey Through a Pastel World in Voyage, Available Now on PS5 and PS4
@sentiententity a ‘stroll-like’?

Re: Journey Through a Pastel World in Voyage, Available Now on PS5 and PS4
Meh, Journey wasn’t really a game, more of a technical demo of the PS4.
Re: Get a Sneak Peek at Hogwarts Legacy's Character Creation, and a Cinematic Snippet
Looks fun, if I don’t get put into Ravenclaw I will sue the developers.
Re: Keita Takahashi Teases New Game with a Puppy and a Uvula

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Stray?
8 seems right, a great game with a unique concept, carefully crafted, original visuals and gameplay, but not enough variety/longevity to merit a higher score
Re: Soapbox: No Free PS5 Upgrade for Persona 5 Royal Is an Insult to Fans and the Game Itself
Meh, no sympathy for PS5. If they have enough money to pay a scalper, they have enough money to pay for upgrades.
