@gollumb82 of what I’ve watched my partner play so far, I’d say yes it is.
Some of the language and how things are explained would probably be a little difficult for her, and there’s some confusing menus. So may need a little help.
My partner who isn’t big into gaming (she mainly does dreamlight valley) has really enjoyed this, so much so that I bought her 2 of the PlayStation access controllers to try and make it easier for her.
It seems to be very well presented.
Not really paid much attention to the micro transactions, hoped the game can be fully done without spending, obviously just missing some outfits
They are in the phase of figuring out what earns them more money (the strategy to port is here - expect it all on switch 2 also)
Do MS make more by having it day 1 exclusive to GP and release 6month later on competition (Indiana jones) or Does it make financial sense to do day 1 on both (Doom).
@GamingFan4Lyf I’d love to go back to unlockables, cheats on completion and so forth. I miss those things.
I just find it baffling that people are happy to be fleeced for character dlc at £30 a pop, multiple times over a few years. On top of a full purchase. Where an alternative could be one full price game, then 3-4yrs later a new game.
@MrPeanutbutterz if I’m told about XYZ characters are coming in a future DLC, before the game has even released. Then said character could have been in the base game.
Either way it’s ridiculous for a company to tell me I need to spend £50-70 (whatever it released at) then multiple lots of dlc for a ridiculous price to have some more fighters.
Companies have to stop taking gamers for a ride, and gamers need to wise up. - be it play early, deluxe editions, pre order for broken day 1, half a game with future dlc.
Why buy MK (or any game) day1 if I know I wait it will be in a better state, feature complete and a fraction of the price.
If you want a ps5. Best place in UK is very 400 for disc console, BUT if you are a new sign up (use a family member) you get an extra 20% off and pay over 6 months.

So we are getting it for £320. Forgot to check it on pro!

Re: Talking Point: Is PlayStation Right in Saying PC Isn't a 'Major Risk' to Console Business?
Please note the reply says ‘so far’ so they are aware.
Are enough casual gamers going to make the jump to PC? Probably not in the near future.
Re: Unfortunately, PS5's Disc Drive Add-On Shortage Doesn't Seem to Be Getting Better
Maybe Herman could give Phil a call… after all a ps5 is an Xbox, maybe they could spare a few drives?
Re: Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 Review Codes Sent Out Super Early, Dev Confidence Seems Sky High
I want it. But with wilds coming so close after it, I fear I will be waiting to play it for a while.

@Toadie can you educate us non social media users please?
Re: Game of the Year: #1 - Astro Bot
There were a lot of games that were very good in 24, but for me Astro bot just sits above them all.
Lots of fun to play, released to a high standard and looks great, good use of haptics.
Well deserved GoTy

Happy new year, here’s to a year of good gaming!
Re: Stellar Blade Dev Says It Hopes Everyone Is 'Living in Love' After Naughty Dog Artist's Interpretation of Eve Is Unfairly Criticised
Maybe the internet will turn a new leaf for the new year tomorrow?
Or maybe it will double down and get worse
Re: STALKER 2 Dev Says There's No Current Plans for PS5
They are doing some good improvements and patches. So for me it’s understandable that it will take longer to hit ps5.
I’ve been delaying playing it to let some patches drop.
Re: Lovely Live Service Infinity Nikki's First Major PS5 Update Approaches
@gollumb82 of what I’ve watched my partner play so far, I’d say yes it is.
Some of the language and how things are explained would probably be a little difficult for her, and there’s some confusing menus. So may need a little help.
But the actual gameplay I would say is fine.
Re: Game of the Year: #7 - Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth
Yeah no sorry guys.
Re: Game of the Year: Khayl's Top 5 PS5 Games of 2024
Khayl knows class games!
Only thing I’d swap is HD2 for Astro just due to the fact I’m not a big online gamer

Merry Christmas everyone hope you all have an awesome day
Re: Game of the Year: Best PS5 Open World Game of 2024
DD2 again?
Over rebirth?
Shame on you PS.
Yes DD2 is good but it was also a mess.
Re: SEGA Is Pondering a PS Plus-Esque Subscription of Its Own
We are going to have a subscription for each major publisher.
It’s always been heading this way since GP/plus.
At that point I’ll just sub a month play what I want then another month sub different.
So it means they will get way less money from me.
Re: Game of the Year: Best PS5 Action Game of 2024
I think stellar blade outshone DD2 for me.
For a new studio, it played well, few bugs, few issues, challenging and good combat. Good bosses.
DD2 while good had issues technically and felt like it was missing abit of spark

Re: Monster Hunter Wilds Dev Making 'Steady Improvements' to PS5 Performance, PS5 Pro Patch Set for Launch
@Jayslow if anything it’s got many more excited about the full release.
I’ve barely seen any negative things on most forums regarding wilds.

Re: Xbox Is Eager to Build the Best Games You Can Enjoy Everywhere

So for now I’d expect a game by game basis still

Ah here we go again.
Re: Random: PS5, PS4 Shovelware Isn't Even Trying to Hide Its Plagiarism Anymore
@breakneck totally agree.
But it’s a PS so I’ll just criticise Sony for now!
Re: Random: PS5, PS4 Shovelware Isn't Even Trying to Hide Its Plagiarism Anymore
This is one area where Sony have really dropped the ball.
Need to sort this kind of crap out.
Tbh it’s pretty embarrassing that Sony allow it to continue

Re: PS5 Disc Drive Stock Still a Source of Intense Irritation for Many
@Tatarimokke dude..
Very have the pro and disc drive. £800 - if you can get someone to sign up as new customer you can get 20% off (£640) and get 12months interest free.
The 20% also works on games.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for December 2024 Announced
Tented is ideal for the younger players that are getting a PS over Xmas. Closest to Pokémon on the system.
Aliens is pretty good but niche.
It takes 2 is a nice one to have over the holidays.
Not amazing games but a decent selection

Re: Rumour: Mortal Kombat 1's Future DLC Cancelled After Poor Sales of Khaos Reigns
Maybe just maybe - and this goes for all fighting games - include more content in the base game.
Stop telling me before the game is even released that you are going to try fleecing me multiple dlc at extortionate prices to get a full roster.

So… is this a PlayStation?
Re: Black Myth: Wukong Dev Declares 'Surprises' Still in Store for 2024
With the wording it sounds like dlc, else if you have completed it what’s worth following?
So probably dlc and Xbox release,

@silverspeed yeah we are buying for one of the children.
Astro bot, sm2, Sonic, disc console and that comes to £405 with discount.
