Well I was hoping for a crysis trilogy remaster, now I see they're struggling with re-launching the 1st game, not optimistic for a crysis 4 at this rate
@AdamNovice you have a point but people would see xbox as the multiplayer console, I love PlayStation but I'd buy my first xbox ever if microsoft dropped it's multiplayer subscription. What's more is that Sony would be forced to follow suit. A win for freedom of the internet! But this is all a dream, companies love money. Think I'll build a PC for mp and still be able to play with my budds on any console
I think the days of charging for online access are numbered due to the success of cross play. Console loyalty is kind of over with xbox ps and pc playerbases being merged. If microsoft drops the bomb on xbox gold with multiplayer going free (just like pc) they will totally outflank sony and probably win next gen!
I have an enormous back log of physical ps4 games that I expect to play boosted with the power of ps5, otherwise whats the point of our much requested backwards compatibility? A disc less ps5 only benefits those who went fully digital this gen
The one thing that holds console gaming back is pay-walled multiplayer, PC will eventually kill consoles if these mega corporations don't wake up and realise that they can't justify charging for online access in a world of massive multi platform cross-play f2p mmo service games. PlayStation plus is awful
Glad to see anti-grav racers back on the market, loved redout, impressed by antigraviator, excited for pacer, adored the omega collection. I just hope sony resurrects Wipeout for PS5!
If they can't get ps3 games working on ps5 they really should utilize ps now for bc. Scan our ps3 purchase history or in-drive discs over the psn and give us access to our games! I bought a digital licence for catherine on ps3, why can't I play it through ps now on my ps4/ps5? Oh yeah... Sony wants you to double / triple dip your entire library
This shouldn't be necessary next gen, can't we have both? Sad that frame rates will still struggle on ps5 with optimum fidelity. 1080p @ 60 fps for everything is a reasonable expectation considering the specs
The disc drive looks grafted on! I wish the ps5 looked like the digital version with a better integrated drive. The digital model is not for me as I have 85 ps4 discs I want to play boosted on my ps5. And lets be honest they need a black version as an option
As a free to play game it's a shame d2 requires ps+ and a lot of add ons to be any fun. Was hoping a f2p ps5 destiny would avoid the plus requirement but I doubt that'll happen with cross gen+cross play. Also removing content is never good
I'm still hoping for the PS5 megaton announcement of full native backwards compatibility of all PlayStation games, then I can dust off my actual ps1 collection for a real nostalgia hit. Come on Sony sort it out for gods sake!
The only way for MS to compete with sony next gen given ps4s success would be sell cheaper at a loss and do some other big customer focused policy change like end the need for xbox live gold for multiplayer or maybe intergrate a PC/Steam mode. Otherwise crossplay + our massive libraries will keep us in the sony ecosystem for the forseeable future
Destiny 2 went free to play but still needed PS+ to play online, I think they should focus on destiny 3 for next gen & go F2P from the start, maybe with a BR mode + cross play
I wanted a crysis trilogy remaster since ps4 launched! They are a no-brainer for EA and will look astounding on ps5, then crysis 4 will come along and blow our minds forever, fantastic series long overdue a comeback
I feel they have a solid foundation upon which to build. The simplicity feels like a return to the classic COD days people yearn for. Thats why modern warfare sold so well, it's more realistic and grounded, I for one think it's leagues ahead of Blackout + Fortnite and maybe even Apex legends (a phenomenal BR) Clearly F2P looks like the future of multiplayer. As a professional cheapskate I am well chuffed

Re: Classic Grand Theft Auto Games Rated for Release on, Er, PS3
