@LiamCroft according to some WHSmith product blog post I found: "The name ‘Quidditch’ came from the location of the first ever recorded game, said to have taken place on Queerditch Marsh around the year 1050"
Ahhh, that's a shame! I survived without Quidditch in the PS2 Prisoner of Azkaban game, so should survive without it in Hogwarts Legacy.
I remember back in 2018 I asked WB Games in London if they would make a Quidditch game and they said it was being looked into (All online ofc like a rocket league style). So maybe there's a separate game in the works? or the person was just lying to me xD
Looks fantastic! Ravenclaw is my fave of the common rooms. And great to see the little circular entrance tunnel to the Gryffindor common room is like what was described in the books 👍 Already got my Deluxe edition PS5 physical copy preordered... Just to patiently wait now. Also how in hell is this going to run on Switch?! Based on all this footage, expecting that version to be severely compromised. (not deliberately dissing Switch btw. I love that console and one of my faves, but recognise its limitations)
@AnnetteM Thanks for the info! Definitely looking forward to playing the full retail release after work today. When playing the demo, I was totally transported back to late 90s PS1/N64 era with its vibes.
That price is insanity! I'll just make do with my existing Hermione Granger wand and Gryffindor quidditch jumper thank you very much! Plus I live 15mins away from Leavesdon studios so can see the actual HP sets etc multiple times for that mad price!
Damn I jinxed it!! 😂
Just earlier today I was discussing Hogwarts Legacy with a work colleague and he asked if it was delayed as he felt there's been next to no news and I said "Nah! seems to be on schedule".
I can wait patiently till Feb! My backlog is too crazy atm. No rush!
Also still can't believe there's a Switch version! So curious if it's native or cloud.
But ofc I'll be getting it on PS5 for hopefully the optimal experience.
Said it for years and I will say it again... Bring back Puppeteer for PSVR! The whole theatre setting with things flying in and out of the stage would work so well in VR.
In the infamous words of Kaz Hirai "599 US Dollars!" xD
I already noted yesterday after the blog post that I was worried how much this might end up being. Right now I am suspecting £500-550. Hope I am wrong! But it's my expectation. And I'll still be a muppet and try and get it day 1 xD
Looks really awesome! The more and more info they share though, the more I worry the price point will be crazy! Hopefully they'll announce a price and release window soon!
Great twitter account! xD I am super curious how my cat will react when I play it later. Although I definitely don't want him trying to scratch my OLED! xD
Tempted to try out Ice Age: Scrat’s Nutty Adventure xD
I know the Ezio collection is meant to be a bit jank but I might download that. Really enjoyed AC2 & Brotherhood back on PS3. Never got a chance to try Revelations. Definitely downloading Stray.
With regards to FFVII, I have the PS4 disc with the digital PS5 upgrade. Does this mean I can access the Intermission DLC with my disc?
Tiny bit disappointed with the PS1/PSP/PS2 classics. LocoRoco is cool, but hoping bigger PSP titles like Daxter appear on the service at some point.
@BritneyfR_ee of course! I have a full on home cinema room (4K projector and Atmos surround) to cater to the superior picture and audio quality of 4K blurays To me, it's very apparent the difference. But strangely alot of my friends don't notice it.
Probably in the absolute minority these days, but tis why I still buy physical bluray/4k blurays. (for movies and games).
Just the other day my 7yr old nephew asked me why I still buy discs and I told him because the likes of Netflix/Disney+ etc can just remove films whenever the license expires. He was shocked they can just disappear. So much so he asked me to get him the 4K bluray of Sonic The Hedgehog 2 so he can have it forever.
Me just sitting here waiting for the likes of Daxter, Pursuit Force, Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters and God of War: Chains of Olympus and Ghosts of Sparta to pop up on the service for that nostalgia itch!
Haven't gone on to my PS5 yet, but no idea what to expect is going to happen when I do!
I already had a 1yr sub to Now on top of PS Plus, so Sony emailed me twice over the last few weeks to say they will be combined to be "Premium". But my Now Sub was due to expire in October and my general PS Plus auto renews in September. So does that mean when it comes to Sept i'll be charged £100?!? If they attempt to charge me right now, i'll be saying "Excuuuuse me!?"
There's also a trailer on the Playstation Direct site. (weirdly took a while for it to load and i'm on 1GB internet speed - presuming back end site management panicking trying to take it down xD)
Ofc looks alot cleaner and higher framerate version of the game. But i'm hoping it wasn't too big a team doing this remaster at ND. Would prefer new, original content from them and this (to me at least) seems a waste of resources. But I am sure this will sell like crazy.
I'm so curious why people take such stock in what Grubb says. Would like to know the ratio of things he's actually got right compared things he hasn't (and sure has made an excuse every time as to why it didn't go as he said)
I did however see Battlefield 2042 going for £14.95 on Game Collection today, so makes me think it's gone into the bargain bin to be forgotten about.
Looking forward to trying out the Performance mode. Even though I bought it at launch, only clocked in around 7-8hrs, playing in fidelity mode as the old perf mode was weirdly fuzzy originally to me. Sadly dropped off to play other games in the backlog, but now seems the perfect time to return 👍
Looks fantastic! Really hoping it's en par with Until Dawn (or ofc even better if it surpasses it!) Definitely would like to do the couch multiplayer mode with my friends.
I work for a major TV distribution company and contacted the acquisition team today about Gran Turismo needing a distributor... Don't think they will bite. They asked if it''s scripted (drama) or non-scripted (documentary or entertainment) and I couldn't provide an answer xD Who knows though! They might contact Sony directly for more info.
Pie in the sky thought... What if this current gen NFS is the "unnannounced remake" EA mentioned the other day, and it's Need For Speed Underground 2!?
If they did that and the game booted up to "Riders on the Storm" or "Lean Back" the nostalgia hit would be huge for me!
@get2sammyb ah yes! That makes sense to have it named Club de Futbol in those regions 👍
As I work with keyart final approvals myself, I just panicked for a moment for the key artist if they accidentally made a mistake 😂 But all good if that's the reason!
@get2sammyb due to my circumstance of having PS Plus renew in Sept but Now in Oct. Might be best for me to cancel it early and start afresh... Hopefully Sony will provide more clarity!
Ok so I have PS Now, which renews in October, but my PS Plus renews in September. So does that mean Sony will charge me the £50 in Sept and then £100 in Oct!? Or will they take away the difference as half of PS Plus is already paid for?
What timing for this poll article to pop up! I got my PSP out of the attic yesterday! Sadly I traded in most of my PSP games back in the day when i was around 14yrs old to help buy a PS3 (back when it was £425)
Thankfully still have a few of my faves: Daxter KH: Birth By Sleep Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters and the demo UMD with the Spidey 2 trailer and Natasha Bedingfield's "These Words" music vid xD.
Loved playing Tomb Raider Legend and Anniversary and Pursuit Force on the old handheld too.
Looks fantastic! Always liked the Lego games since the original Lego Star Wars on PS2 to chill and play for easy going sessions. My only question is, can the HUD be tweaked/minimised? There were a few moments in the video where the screen looks very busy. Would like to be able to see the plastic figures and environments in all their glory with some of the HUD elements removed.
@Quintumply thanks for confirming this! My biggest worry last night was that there might be when I saw real time countdown timers for herbs growing in the room of requirement. Now this is likely to be a day 1 purchase for me!
Also can't believe it's going to be on Switch! (may be cloud, although Amazon have put up a physical boxart) Of course I will be choosing Hogwarts Legacy for PS5 though for the superior experience Can't wait for its Christmas release!
I was 100% all in... Until I saw the real time countdown timers for the potion brewing in the room of requirement.
I immediately thought "Awww damn! Don't tell me the game is going the mobile game route of having some" rare gem" that will speed up the process and you can purchase in bulk with real money on a digital storefront"
I never buy microtransactions. If this game pushes the way of mobile and deliberately forces a grind if you don't invest, I'll sadly leave it.
Hoping it's not the case though!
It looks amazing other than that issue.
Please be good! Please be good! 🙏 I grew up on Philosopher's Stone on PS1 and Chamber of Secrets + Prisoner of Azkaban on PS2, so would love for this to be a hit.
Also curious how they'll handle Quidditch. Could it end up like Quidditch World Cup but with full online play?!
Not gonna happen, but would be cool if Resi 7 got a bit of a bump up in resolution and assets quality too for PSVR. I honestly feel like Blood and Truth is the only PSVR game that's received an upgrade utilising PS5 boost improvements
Couldn't help but laugh at this patch note:
>NPCs that seemed to suffer from insomnia and would gather in large groups at night in settlements should act more naturally now.
Happy to see the HDR issue seems to be fixed.
Haven't had much issue overall aside from abrupt pop in. Like the intro credits. I know it's in real time which is awesome, but had a moment where Aloy was in a white void and then BAM! a mountain range appeared xD
(The SSD is still the same one built into the PS5 system, if anyone thinks it may be due to a slower expanded SSD)
Tonight after work will be another 20mins of flicking back and forth between resolution and performance modes to see the differences
Was pleasantly surprised playing it on PS5. I had zero expectations and enjoyed it. Probably helped that I only paid £29 for it in a Black Friday sale.
Surely this game has some kind of record for the longest continuous VO in a game?! xD They barely stopped talking throughout!
Doubt I will be an early adopter like I was with the original PSVR. Paying £400 day 1 for the headset and move controllers only for the headset to break (had a red line go across the screen) with minimal use and just after the warranty expired so Sony wanted to charge £200 to fix. I declined and a few weeks later walked into an Argos and got the V2 headset for £180 with Firewall, Moss and another game.
I had a bunch of points with my Game Collection account, so got the PS5 version of Horizon for £50. Fine with that. Like @JJ2 I prefer to have a game on disc. i'm still a stickler for physical media ownership. I still buy 4K Bluray movies, so didn't want my PS5 version of HFW to completely be a digital download.

Re: Mini Review: Tinykin (PS5) - A Cute Adventure Bubbling with Charm
@AnnetteM Thanks for the info!
Definitely looking forward to playing the full retail release after work today.
When playing the demo, I was totally transported back to late 90s PS1/N64 era with its vibes.
Re: Mini Review: Tinykin (PS5) - A Cute Adventure Bubbling with Charm
I also tried the demo on Switch and really loved it. Was sadly quite low res in handheld so decided i'll opt for the PS5 version.
@AnnetteM if you don't mind me asking, does the game mainly run at 60fps on PS5?
The Switch demo was 30fps with hiccups here and there.
Re: Where to Pre-Order Hogwarts Legacy Deluxe and Collector's Editions for PS5, PS4
@paulbuck1996 ditto! Just waiting The Game Collection to list it. Currently only the standard edition.
Re: Get a Floating Magic Wand in the Hogwarts Legacy Collector's Edition
That price is insanity!
I'll just make do with my existing Hermione Granger wand and Gryffindor quidditch jumper thank you very much!
Plus I live 15mins away from Leavesdon studios so can see the actual HP sets etc multiple times for that mad price!
Still excited for the game in general of course.

Re: Sony Unveils PSVR2 User Experience, Including See-Through View, Customisable Play Area
@themightyant If it launches at £400 mark I guess that's ok.

Re: Hogwarts Legacy Will Be Free of Microtransactions
@Quintumply thanks for confirming this!
My biggest worry last night was that there might be when I saw real time countdown timers for herbs growing in the room of requirement.
Now this is likely to be a day 1 purchase for me!
Also can't believe it's going to be on Switch! (may be cloud, although Amazon have put up a physical boxart)

Re: Hands On: Is GTA 5 on PS5 Worth It?
Only ever played GTA V on the PS3, so for £8.75/£9, why not.

Re: Here's Your First Look at PS5's PSVR2 Headset, Which Is Lighter and Slimmer Than Original
Now to reveal the price point.
Doubt I will be an early adopter like I was with the original PSVR. Paying £400 day 1 for the headset and move controllers only for the headset to break (had a red line go across the screen) with minimal use and just after the warranty expired so Sony wanted to charge £200 to fix. I declined and a few weeks later walked into an Argos and got the V2 headset for £180 with Firewall, Moss and another game.
Re: In the UK, 70% of Boxed Horizon Forbidden West Buyers Paid More Than They Needed To

i'm still a stickler for physical media ownership. I still buy 4K Bluray movies, so didn't want my PS5 version of HFW to completely be a digital download.
