The anti-disc-because-spoilers-people on here are, frankly, pathetic. Whatever is digital only or requires to be online permanently only gives companies permission to not let you own anything. Because everything will be a subscription based transaction in the future.
What happened to the folks grilling CEOs foe their "You will own nothing and be happy!" comments? You deserve being treated like that while everyone who likes to own what they paid for gets one up theirs.
I loved the series up until the OG trilogy, after that my interest waned. Not a fan of the goofyness turned up to 11 tbh. So this would have been interesting! Let's see what Stranger than Heaven will be.
With all the fun we had over the years with Yakuza themed media, tho, let's not forget that the Yakuza stand for far-right-politics, racism, misogyny and xenophobia. (And yes, you can consume and like media that's controversial at the same time β€οΈ)
@Stonecold730 (#1) the class struggle is real. Join a union and read a little Michael Parenti, friend β€οΈ Oh, and, of course, play the heck out of RE9!
Best news since Okami 2! The vibe, music, setting was so beautiful and crafted mainly after the balinese culture. Beautiful game. And agreed, harder-than-expected bosses haha
@Czar_Khastik Definitely am! I share these memories with my younger sister, she still occasionally plays it on Switch. I love everything about it (except you, in-fight-camera. You suck!). The best Zelda-like on Playstation, Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy second.
@pushsquare can't we have social functions on here? Maybe feasabilty would be an issue, but it's my go-to website for news regarding Playstation matters.
@ZeroE That's the best use of online multiplayer imho! And thanks for the attention, I guess. I own the physical trilogy, but gotten kind of exhausted after playing the, because I was new to turn-based combat. Story, setting and tone are peak, though!
@ZeroE (#9) I only dipped my toes into 2's demo, but it looked awesome. I wish you that 3 will be what you want it to be. Multiplayer online is just not for me. But what I took from 1 was pure bliss.
Yes yes yes, please. My one game when going on a deserted island (with all implications of getting a PS2 to even be playable, of course)! I'm expecting greatness of the sequel and it's thrilling to think about what Ammy and **** can expect "up there"! (Spoilers avoided) Listen to the soundtrack, yall!
Too bad, the whole city felt eerie and New York covered in snow is always a nice sight to behold. The game could have potential as a single player experience.
@Lavishturtle (#12) Exactly, and the one issue regarding hiring processes is still unaccounted. Also they STILL use generative AI, so it's an immediate pass. Without caring for workers or any processes involved in making consumer goods it's simply commodity fetishism in the gamer's part: Consume and don't ask questions! Companies (and ESPECIALLY their CEOs) are not your friends, people!
When a spade is a spade, then slop will always be slop. Won't ever buy just a single game that was made with genAI and I'll die by that sentence. The AI bubble will burst sooner rather than later, anyways.
@Makina (#74) imho Playstation should focus way more on the well of crativity that is Japan. Both countries have crazy problematic work cultures, but everything made in Japan for PS back in the day had way more to offer.

Re: 'These Guys Are Top of the Line': Actor Tony Dalton Talks Up Naughty Dog and Intergalactic
This is just marketing and I hardly believe Dalton is an expert on the subject of game development.
