They won't. Modern AAA games are all made for the lowest common denominator. True challenging games with a proper skill ceiling don't really exist anymore in that space except for the ones that are built around the challenge like Returnal, Souls.

Spider-Man 2 PS2 was amazing to learn and combine all types of free running, tricks and swinging.
The new ones are just pure autopilot almost. You can do it with one hand on the controller like Assassin's Creed games.

Ads: OMG LOOK INSANE FREE RUNNING GUYS!

Reality: one hand on controller, one hand scrolling on phone

This better be good or I'll riot.
One of the best and most popular tv series of all time and all it gets are these PS2 type licensed games. Insanely stupid considering the potential it has

I love watching companies I used to LOVE go down in the dumbest ways possible.

@Kraven
As good as it may be....
>and with the preorder you get two days early access.

This is EXACTLY why you shouldn't pre-order lol. Don't support these bad practices, sigh...

I'd love to play both (if SH's really close to its original without censorship or dumb creative changes).
Been a while since I've a game messed me up that bad in a game. Last time was on SH2 on PS3 and before that it was once again SH2 on PS2.

Gotta wonder why they don't make em like they used to anymore though

@Frmknst
Was that the case for MW2?

@HonestHick
Fair enough, but wouldn't the question then be why the PS4 and PS5 are lacking?
I'm honestly asking, because I'm baffled by it, because the PS3 did have something in its hardware that could simulate insanely impressive physics and the newer consoles only care about graphics, ray tracing and framerates.

I'm more impressed at the technical marvel that is GTA IV than I am with any openworld game that came after (except for Rockstar games). Is there something there that only Rockstar can squeeze out or is there some hardware bottleneck that prevents developers from creating proper physics anymore? Or have developers/ publishers become too complacent and adopted the Ubisoft mentality of releasing crap and thinking "they'll buy it anyway".

Why are the original Halo games so impressive. They're even online games and everything reacts so beautifully with eachother. Explosions, punches, vehicles, everything has its physics and it's all seamless. Now we have Concord.

Something's wrong and I can't believe nobody else cares anymore

@wildcat_kickz
You named a lot of cross platform games and remakes buddy.
Returnal, BG3, Astrobot, ER, sure. No console sellers though and definitely not using all that much PS5 juice making the Pro, once again, redundant.

GT7 shouldn't be on that list either. FF games are always there and are nothing more than just enjoyable.
Dragons Dogma 2 was such an insane disappointment, it's crazy.
That's the theme though this generation: disappointment after disappointment.

Where are the games that truly squeeze the PS5 juice for there to be a Pro? Serious question.
Why is GTA 4 on PS3 still more impressive than most modern games that lack physics and proper world interaction? Why does Spider-Man 2 on PS2 have physics and the PS freaking 5 version doesn't?

It's gamers acceptance of mediocrity that games have taken such a nosedive the last 2 generations. Look where Ubisoft is now. They've become so complacent and it's gonna take them down. I'm all for it. Good riddance

Yeah, yeah everyone can make the biggest PC rig ever.
Show some games that actually use that rig to the last drop then. Sony's most impressive game is last gen. Scalpers can shove this useless hardware up their behinds

Great. Now I can take modern gamings disappointments with me on the go!

@Boucho11
That would be so insanely cool...
But I doubt it as it's no live service, so they're just focusing on those sadly

Horizon online has potential tbh. The gameplay/ combat are the only things worthwhile in these games.
Though, Sony already had gold in their hands with Factions 2, but decided to cancel that and pump money elsewhere (aka in flops), so yeah, I have absolutely zero expectations. Today's Sony will ruin it somehow

That is absolutely insane lmao. Where else do you see this anymore!?
Why does it feel like Kojima is the only one left who still tries to make absolutely unique AAA experiences. So much effort goes into this, along with getting all these big actors to go along with it all! Insane!

Even writing "AAA" feels so cursed. The likes of Ubisoft and such have ruined the goddamn term so much, you almost want to avoid it lol.

KCD2 and DS2. The saviours of this miserable generation? AM I FINALLY FEELING SOME FORM OF HYPE!? I THINK I AM

The only good thing that came out of this miserable generation is Ubisoft going down hard.
My years of complaining about these turds is finally having a payoff.
It's the fact that they've always had so much potential and just absolutely waste it so badly.

They've become too complacent. "They'll buy this crap anyway, who cares?".
Well, gamers have been pushed too far, in too many aspects for far too long and they're voting with their wallets. Good riddance.
Put the consumers back at #1 priority and I hope other publishers (SONY!!) take notes b

No way!
I was looking around for PS3 copies for this game lmao.
One of the few remasters that actually deserve it

This looks super fun! Really hope it's good

Stuff like this coming back. Ubisoft going down.
The world is healing

@LifeGirl
Oh I fkn hope so. Burn it all to the ground.
Publishers, developers and the lot of them are completely useless. It has gone way too far.
Hopefully whatever rises from the ashes has a bit more humility towards THEIR FREAKING BUYERS.

Do we want a game called SW Outlaws to be the most civilised game in the galaxy?
It's so toothless lol. Has no edges. Unfinished, badly written generic hoshposh.
My grandma could design a game with more grit than Ubisoft

The dialogue and delivery were my biggest gripes with this game. Just so toothless and pathetic.
Brutal post apocalyptic world and everyone's just so... bleh?

Cool to see they've redone it, but I'm still not gonna play it again lol. Amazing combat, world and premise, but it suffers from modern gaming tropes where the world can't have a speck of dirt, where the character can't have any flaws or be dirty in any way and where everything's just too clean and shiny.

Good riddance

@KundaliniRising333
I am one of those PS cultists, die hard fans.
Though I have lost a bit of the passion during the PS4 gen and it has turned to almost hate even during this gen.

Sony's been an absolute disgrace. It's pathetic. I can't stand it.
PS3 games are technically more impressive than the generic slop we get today.
Uninspired, factory made games by talentless hacks. AAA gaming has become a meme.

When nearly all of the best PS2/3 games have better phyiscs, are more grounded, have better writing, better world and NPC interaction than PS5 games, you know it's done for.

Look at comparison videos of old and new Ubisoft games. Wtf is this garbage man

@PsBoxSwitchOwner
The most impressive PS5 Pro showcase game were PS4 games. If that doesn't tell people all that's wrong with this gen, idk what will

@ThorsHammer
Don't give me hope...

The more I see devs/ publisher emphasize graphics, frame rates and other shallow gimmicks, the more I hate it.

Generations have passed and we have yet to see an openworld game match the PS3 game GTA IV's physics. But pwettyy gwaphics

How long do they have the IP and they couldn't come up with a game like Palworld?
It's utterly pathetic how incompetent these companies are.
One indie dev comes along and gives the fans the game they didn't know they wanted for decades on FIRST TRY.

Someone finally showed Nintendo how it's done and now they're mad lmao

Too bad the PS3 copies are so expensive nowadays.
Otherwise this one's gonna be fine with some patches. I'm curious if the lack of original soundtrack is gonna make a huge difference (not familiar with the game at all)

@Nei
DS2 and KCD2. First PS5 games I'm actually hyped for

@tameshiyaku
TF2 is just incredible.
But yeah, gamers are more critical of developers who always deliver high quality games.
I've seen some crazy criticism Uncharted 4 around the time. Arkham Knight is another example.
Both games have yet to be topped technically imho yet when they were released people were ungrateful in the strangest of ways.
Nowadays we'd wish games are half the quality of those games lol

@tameshiyaku
One of the best games period. Respawn has impeccable talent. Their games are very much needed in today's day and age of absolute slop

Why do modern games looks so clean? It looks so stupid and live service-y/ Fortnite-y...
Where's the proper SKATE grit?

I'm grateful for another Skate game, but since this is a heavily physics based game and modern games absolutely suck at physics, I'm not gonna have my hopes up sadly. Besides the importance of physics, it looks so bland man... What happened

@Troubbble
Censorship is a no-buy from me.
No siree! 😊

@themightyant
Yeah love the way that game looks lol!
I've got it in my wishlist and hoping to play it soon!

Can we have some physics again in games pls?
Remember when Spider-Man PS2 and GTA IV had incredible physics? Why don't we have that anymore?
Who cares about reflections

I don't give a crap about the setting, the players count, whatever.

The last fun BF was BFBC2 and BF3 to some extent. Go back to what made it all good. All these stupid gimmicks in modern gaming man. Useless

Honestly though, what's even the point anymore?
The base PS5 juice hasn't even been squeezed at 50%, yet we're getting the Pro lmao.
Where are the games that support these hardware?
RDR2 and TLOU2 are still the most impressive "next gen" games and they're last gen!

@Flaming_Kaiser
That's what I'm saying though. They've got the market covered.
Other companies who try this live service stuff fail miserably at the cost of hundreds of millions. Gotta love it

@UltimateOtaku91
No, but it's a Blizzard game and those are popular. The market isn't that big.
So watching other big companies try and fail miserably is a sight to behold.

It's a very risky strategy (but high regards), so maybe not even worth it

@XG4ever
Nope. Without Binding of Isaac it would be a niche genre

I got comfortable not owning Ubisoft games anymore.

^top comment and I completely agree

@rjejr
Yeah I've quit online games mostly for a while now. They really can prevent me from doing any of my backlog games. And I reaaally loved putting time into Rockstar League, Apex, Factions, etc.

If these Genshin type games weren't free to play and had a proper story without all the padding, I'd love them, but now I won't even bother

@playstation1995
Amen dude. Sony's gone full mental

@LordFunkalot
Tragic?

YES! Great to see it being covered!
Really hope it's gonna be a true Fall Guys competitor

SSJ4 design is just off the charts cool. Only thing I like about GT (although the last time I gave it a shot was 10 years ago lol and it didn't last long)

The PS5 showcase was showing TLOU2. A PS4 game. Of course it can't run the one and only true next gen game on 60fps. This is the biggest scam I've ever seen from Sony

@Decoy_Snake
The only relevant comment. Case closed. Period.

They also had the audacity to only show older games for their Pro showcase.
THEY KNOW THEIR GAMES DON'T ACTUALLY JUSTIFY A PRO CONSOLE.
This is absolute madness. Their showcase was full of TLOU2 gameplay, because that's their most advanced game imo.
So why would a PS5 Pro be necessary if a BASE PS4 can handle their best game...?

I am so baffled by all of this, it's pure and utter insanity. Sony's gone full clown. 🤡
