Pactner very regularly makes hilariously bad Xbox predictions like a coping fanboy. His opinion next to the money Sony brings in with PlayStation this gen should be the real focus.
Whatever their idea of evolving the shop is years behind lol stuff like digital gifting should've been here late PS4/start of PS5 gen. Can't imagine what they're gonna try to pass off as an evolution at this point
Can y'all let it go? RDR2 has been getting a PS5 version since the console came out, either get the PC version or move on, who actually cares about this anymore?
What's the deal with companies calling these highly crafted and redone games remasters instead of remakes? When I think remasters, it's what Sony's been doing recently, cleaning up whatever dirt came with the original releases. This is a PS2 game brought up to modern standards, including better graphics, gameplay and QOL features they weren't thinking of back then. The distinction companies don't bother to make us confusing.
No one hates video games more than gamers, so i've opted to remove myself from said discourse because of this. Personally I thought there was alot of cool stuff that I wanna buy and some slop I audibly groaned at, but this State of Play was pretty good all things considered. It's also not lost on me that Sony ends these shows with a first party PS5 game that'll come out within the next year as they've done with Astro Bot, Ghost of Yotei and now Housemarque's next game.
Yet another Sony walk back I'm happy they're doing. I've always said they should be providing an incentive, not straight up forcing the login, so good to see they're taking that to heart.
@Frmknst I honestly don't get it either, I've tried HK SEVERAL times and it never clicked with me. I think people overrate it cuz it's a half decent indie darling.
