Dont forget to "WiShLiSt It On StEaM" its all I can ever remember from Geoffs shows, will prob be sitting this out and catching the highlights in articles instead, the last few have been very meh
Not gonna lie tempted by Grey Skies the War of the Worlds game at £2.39, always loved the original film and the radio drama, so im curious to see what its like
"We intend to take action to increase user engagement" What they going to do exactly, shoot out wires from the usb ports to keep us in place? Bit of a weird comment
But like others, life getting back to almost normality after a 2 year lockdown and now cost of living crisis for most of the world, you can best believe people aint going to be spending 70+ quid on a game when they're struggling to pay energy bills etc
Not really sure why the game lists have to be tucked away on a screen that most people dont visit very often, would have made more sense on the home screen, but its something folder-ish I suppose.
Good, I really hope they use Plus Extra format to bring more indies and double AAs to the light, some of the best games ive played last gen (and so far this gen) fall under that banner.
So an extra £30 just to look at a little picture (that you could right click and save from this article for free) of the figure you bought on your phone? I mean...
I didnt even make it to the end of the first episode... sure its got zombies but this is Resident Evil in name only. Hoping beyond hope that the Last of Us show will actually deliver the goods instead of whatever this is meant to be.
Extra has been fantastic value so far! I do believe Premium will get better, its obvs just going to take a bit of time as things need to get ported / converted etc
Laughing at all the gibberish PR speak... Inzone sounds like a shoe shop and secondly a lot of the reviews on the headphones are saying they are all very average indeed.
Im still triggered by the sudden influx of photo-less profiles swooping into the The Quarry review to shout at anyone who dared not think it was anything less than a 9/10 game..so lemme just say this... hmmmmm I like the sound of this games setting
Well.. we all know Sony wont be there, but if E3 can keep their dreadful idea of InFlUeNcErS being anywhere near it, then I hope it works out for them, somehow.
Was hoping for a nice little single player story part to this, but its looking increasingly unlikely, I'll watch just to see how its finally turned out after all this time, but expectations are rock bottom.
Maybe an Announcement date for a SOP tomorrow? though I get the feeling it will either be a Xmas / Holiday game for some big coin or its getting pushed to 2023 in the same release slot as Horizon from this year.
@Perturbator A live service is technically different from the online multiplayers.. No Mans Sky, Minecraft, Dreams are live service games, guess its how Sony define what live service is, theres several roads they could do down instead of the typical route.
Its on Mobile now? Kinda tempted to download it to my tablet, as it plain refuses to download the PS5 version to my console, just hangs in the download queue doing nothing
Im curious about how they tread this path from now, I have a feeling they are just going to double down on the dead-on-arrival multi player games and some random ps4 title. That said, im kinda hoping for DND: Dark Alliance to pop up on essential / extra some time
Im another one who really doesnt get the NTSC thing, we grew up with PAL versions in UK/Europe so meh... I'll prob upgrade to Extra, Ghosts of Tsu, Demons Souls, Stray when released, and loads of games I want to try just to see but would never buy like Spiderman/Miles Morales etc Does anyone know if you can stack the memberships? Like if I upgrade to extra, can you then buy another years worth? Bit of a shame if you can only renew at one point annually.
Kinda hope this is true! not really keen on the idea of removable bits and bobs in respect to how long the controller lasts without something breaking, but the integrated back paddles alone would make me interested in buying.
Actually have to agree with this review, Im not sure what 9/10 game the other reviews were playing but it certainly wasn't this! Bought it, played it, felt ripped off by it, and sold it on after I finished.
Its just so clunky, and tedious, even though its quite short, I was just wishing it was over already from about half way through. If you're interested wait till its sub 25ish of your local monies.
Well the comments section didnt dissapoint! Love it or hate it (im in the rather like it side) D2 is a pretty great game these days, but ive been playing since all the way back in D1. Ive built up a nice little UK clan to play with so Its a crying shame that its such a rubbish experience for new or lapsed players to get into.
The current team they have seem to understand the games needs etc and they have mastered the art of GaaS model so its easy to see why Sony wants their help. D2 is the only live service game I play unless No Mans Sky counts? but its mainly sp games and cool little indies / AAs I play. Both types of games can co-exist quite happily.
Trying to buy the currently discounted ps4 version of this on the Uk store in their latest sale, but for some reason it doesnt appear on the console search, but does through the app, so hesitant to buy through the app incase it doesnt download on the console.. a bit strange!
@itsfoz I mean we're 2.5 years into the PS5 now and theres literally a handful of PS5 only games, yes world events etc etc But we wont be seeing anything like this on a PS5 or even what it can even achieve until PS4 games are stopped being made and that doesnt look like happening anytime soon unfortunately.
@Uncharted2007 eh? RE 7 is the most RE feeling game since the early trilogy! That compact claustrophobic location with the grim Hills Have Eyes family and its traps were just * chefs kiss * 8 on the otherhand is just a big glossy but very well done supernatural romp, not particularily scary but quite intense at some points, creeping through the castle while being hunted down, felt very Alien Isolationy at times.
I mean Outriders isnt really a live service game at all... Sure it has online elements like finding people to play with if you need it, but thats it? Its absolutely nothing like Destiny 2, where the actual game ebbs and flows and purposely changes with ongoing storylines etc every 3 month season. Anyways its no surprise it didnt break even, its a fairly average looter shooter. I paid £14 for it and it felt appropriate for what it was.
Eh.. Blaspehmous is well worth the money on its own! And im pretty sure this very website rather enjoyed, so a bit of an odd article! Also Soul Calibur VI is a very decent fighter game
