@get2sammyb there's one more info:

SF 6 Battle Hub has a voting event for "the best Street Burger" and anyone who login will get new color for Bison outfit 2.

"Sony says Light of Motiram ultimately “jeopardises Horizon’s continued success"

I don't think this ripoff would affect Horizon sales in the future. The franchise already sold 38 million copies, build a pretty solid fanbase, and became one of PS most recognizeable IP since its debut in 2017. I'm sure a lot of Horizon fans will still buy Horizon 3 over this ripoff nor they will mistake Aloy with her Chinese counterpart.

But i get it why Sony still wants to delete this copycat...

RIP Itagaki 😢

Without him, there will be no Dead or Alive series and Ninja Gaiden probably wouldn't be popular if Itagaki didn't pushed it for the 3D reboot.

It's a cool collab but sadly only exist in Japan.

But I believe this isn't the only SF collab that exclusives to Japan. There's also a collab with onsen / bathhouse chain.

Possibly one of the biggest reason why SF brand and SF 6 is very very popular in Japan because the collab and marketing are massives. And why Capcom esport division thinks it's a good idea for pay-per-view Capcom Cup :/

@twitchtvpat I guess it's sold almost similar to the 1st game.

@DadJKP "No actual real concrete sales numbers are out"

Famitsu 1st week showed Yotei at no 1 with 120K copies sold, physical copy only. UK chart showed Yotei at no 1 and EU chart showed at no 2 in the 1st week.

It's not a far fetch to say it sold really well despite Sony not yet show worldwide numbers.

"Sony has already started winding down online adverts for the game"

That's what the grifters said lol

"So no, sorry, no one is wailing or gnashing their teeth at being "owned" by this article"

Clearly you did gnashing your teeth if not you wouldn't go this far lol. Keep seething buddy.

Desk combo is here in case anyone wants to try 😅

@Oram77 No, i'm not.

@Oram77 "also pretty sure everyone loved 7,9 and 10 so FF have done it in the past"

Sure in some alternate dimension but not in this one.

He badmouth his previous employer and then years later he came back to them lmao 😂

I respect the confidence but there's no history where a Final Fantasy game ever universally "loved by everyone".

So i doubt VIIR Part 3 will be the first FF who will get that achievement, especially when Remake and Rebirth already hated by the purist. Even og FF VII hated by FF VI fans for whatever reasons.

@UltimateOtaku91 Yeah I don't get this either.

These people keeps saying PS5 is the worst PS generation because it lack of exclusives and single player 1st party games. They claim they sold their PS5 and doesn't want to buy any PS games / console anymore.

But in the same time, they are grinding their teeths and doesn't look happy when exclusive 1st party single player game like Ghost of Yotei sold well.

What are these haters wants exactly??? It's really confusing 🤷‍♂️

@nomither6 Thanks 🙏

@judgmentarrows While Infamous series didn't do big numbers but it was a commercial success. The budget for the series was rumored around $30-50 million /game with Infamous 1 sold 2 million copies and Infamous Second Son sold 6 million copies. Can't find the numbers for Infamous 2 though.

I remember someone said this game launch with "muted buzz" lel
https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2025/10/ps-studios-celebrates-launch-of-ghost-of-yotei-on-ps5-with-gorgeous-artwork

@Ainu20 Tsushima also $10 cheaper than Yotei and back in 2020 PS4 has larger install base than PS5.

I have 1 rental ticket to try her for one hour, enough to see her arcade mode and combo trials.

The grifters & boycotters are foaming from their mouth after they look at this news 😂

@Northern_munkey I say Yotei achievement is still quite impressive and considering it has similar budget to Tsushima, big chance Sony & SP already made their budget back + profits in the same week.

@AverageGamer "You mean that they can continue to be lazy and not optimize?"

Ah yes because Zelda BotW and TotK for Switch looks very smooth and optimized right? They doesn't have performance issues like frame drop from 30 to 20 right? That's why Nintendo didn't port both games for Switch 2 right? Lmao. Nintendo themself can't even optimized their own games for Switch.

Even games that doesn't require a lot of optimization doesn't played well on Switch. Old shmup games for example has more input lag and slow down on Switch compare to PS4.

Sorry to say but this "3rd party devs needs to scaled down their games to cater to the lowest common denominator" idea is just dumb af. Period.

@nomither6 I did. But i lost all of my PS1, PS2, PSP, and Sega Genesis collection because fire accident like a decade ago. Sadly a lot of them are quite expensives and rare so i didn't bother to buy them again.

• Games
• BC
• Disc drive
• Good price

That's it. But i'll wait for a slim version.

@CRASH64 Yes not every games needs remakes. But it's a fair game to remasters old games that still stuck with old hardware, especially when those old games are fricking expensives nowadays. I would love a remaster of Haunting Ground, Rule of Rose, Galerians, Koudelka, Shadow Hearts, and Tales of Destiny since these games are quite rare and can cost hundreds of bucks.

Maybe the guy got bored and needs a breath of fresh air? I mean, working in the same franchise over and over and over while the higher ups keeps pressuring him to always deliver the best product for 20 years could gives some nasty mental fatigue.

@wildcat_kickz "but I don't understand why Sucker Punch is acting like they need to remaster games themselves"

This is just my guess. But after Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time doesn't sold that well / received less positives than Sly Cooper 1-3 and Sly Cooper 1-3 port for PS4/PS5 has some performance issues, possibly SP feels more comfortable if they're handling their own games including remasters and ports.

Remaster wouldn't take 5 years to finish. But Brian statement sounds like "We're done with inFamous. But you should ask Sony if you want a remaster."

I still have my inFamous 1 & 2 copy so i wouldn't double dip unless they bundled the game and not charge full price.

Last week EVO France top 8 for SF 6 was hype and it was free to watch. I love SF 6 but Capcom e-sport higher ups are fking nuts if they think i will spend $40 or even a single buck to watch Capcom Cup.

The graphic and artstyle looks pretty decent. But it's for mobile...

@1UP-HUSKY I love Ehrgeiz. But i'm not sure if DreamFactory, the developer behind it along with Tobal No 1 & 2 and The Bouncer, is still around...

3rd person melee action and puzzles could be anything though. If we're looking at Sony's catalogue only, i believe Alundra, Primal, Mark of Kri, Medievil, Shadow of the Beast, Genji, Heavenly Sword, and Folklore are focus on 3rd person melee action and some puzzles here and there.

I would be really happy if it's a new Alundra Shadow of the Beast, Medievil, Genji, or Folklore. These IP's deserves another chance.

Yeah i really miss manual booklet 😔

The sad thing is games are more expensives, $70-80+. But most publishers not just didn't include manual booklet anymore but physical games are less physical this days with DRM / must online authentication and lazy AF* artcover.

Gone are the days where physical games feels as if you owned something special like a piece of art that will stay in your collection for years...sigh 😔

@Oram77 MGS 2 manual booklet is better than MGS 1 imho. It has Shinkawa artworks and characters bio but it also has a cool short manga that shows Snake infiltrate the tanker while explaining some basic gameplay mechanics.
https://metalgear.konami.net/manual/mc1/mgs2/pc/en/page03.html

And Puppeteer on PS3 also has cool manual booklet that looks like picture books for kids. It's just awesome and i'm glad i still owned it.

@MrPeanutbutterz Considering Saudis owned SNK, i guess you're not gonna play any future SNK games or their recent port like Real Bout and AoF 3?

@twitchtvpat @Lowdefal Never say never

@SeaDaVie Then why you claim companies can't try new things just because they pulled out a survey and ask what the fans wants?

@AhmadSumadi I see. At least Yotei is selling well which is the opposite of what the grifters said.

@AverageGamer I'm sure most devs are doing just fine with only PS and PC userbase. Many games doesn't has Switch version and they still manage to sold well. In fact, without Switch version, many devs are avoiding the headache of scalling down their games and can focus more on the best optimization.

I'm sure Rockstar doesn't need Switch 2 for GTA 6 to sell more than 100 million copies.

@Questionable_Duck True. Tekken (and DoA) has problem with the girls looks anime no matter what their nationality. It's like all of them used the same face & body template.

But somehow they made the guys looks quite different and not generic.

@SeaDaVie "The problem with this is it would mean companies basically never change lane or try new things"

Capcom says halo. They pulled out a survey and asked the fans what they want from the company. And lo and behold they still tried new things like Exoprimal, Kunitsu Gami, and Pragmata while in the same time they're still making sequels / remake / remaster from their established franchise. Asking what the fans wants doesn't mean devs can't try new things.

With FBC, Remedy not just didn't satisfy any of their fans but they also go far beyond their specialty; from making a single player game to a multiplayer only game.

It's a very big gamble and Remedy could lessen the risk if FBC has a single player story campaign that doesn't require playing online. If the fans like the campaign then they could try the multiplayer.

And From Soft already did hard dark fantasy RPG's with King's Field series which was their first IP and one of their longest running franchise before they made Souls series. Demon's / Dark Souls is pretty much King's Field spiritual successor. Beside King's Field, From also did Shadow Tower and Eternal Ring that has the same vibe as King's Field and Souls series.

I never see any Control / Alan Wake fans who ever say they want a live service game.

So it's just weird to see Remedy spent their resources for a game that no Control / Alan Wake fans ever asked. Like why not throw a survey and ask fans what games they want next?

@johndoe89 This IS a genuine Fatal Fury game. Just because you don't like the character design doesn't mean it's not a Fatal Fury game.

@AhmadSumadi 1.6 million for physical copies only? And is it worldwide or UK only?

This remake looks fugly 🤮. Can Sega just port the Arcade / Saturn / Dreamcast ver? I would gladly buy it over this remake.

I don't care about BF 6 numbers. But nice to see Ghost of Yotei still selling well in the 2nd week.

@Futureshark It's not about the boobies but the character just doesn't look unique or even fit for a Tekken character.

@Oram77 For me, SC 2 is a very solid game but not the best FG. But it's in the top 3 of the best 3D FG along with Virtua Fighter 5 and Bloody Roar 2.

Sadly, Bamco always put Soul Calibur series behind Tekken when comes to budget, promotion, and competitive scenes. And they quickly abandoned SC 6 to death after it only sold like 2 million copies.

I would hype for this game if they released it years ago when the tv series still has plenty of hype. I admit the graphics looks nice with the artstyle stay true to the tv series.

This girl feels like she was designed for Soul Calibur. But since that series already dead for years, Bamco decided to moved her to Tekken.

Could be true if we're looking at previous PS generations.

• PS1 released in 1994
• PS2 released in 2000
• PS3 released in 2006
• PS4 released in 2013
• PS5 released in 2020

2027 sounds like a solid prediction for PS6.

I would wait until the slim version with cheaper price and bigger library. And hopefully it comes with BC that can play PS1-PS5 disc.

Buying a 55 page digital guide book is pointless when you can just browse gamefaqs for free and found tons of walkthrough and infos.

But i'm surprise Atlus didn't try to sell Metaphor Royale / Golden.

Put FF VIII Remastered on hold. I just lost interest with this game again. VIII and XIII are probably the only FF games i ever played where i lost interest multiple times. But last year i managed to finished XIII so maybe someday i can finish VIII...

Anyway. I just ordered a second hand copy of Deus Ex: Human Revolution for PS3. I spent around $3.5 for the game. So i'm gonna played it when the copy arrived.

I'm also playing:

• Super Double Dragon. Bought it for $1 from PS store sale and i had fun with the game. Although the enemy variety is kinda weak and the hold & counter as well the charge mechanic feels kinda OP.
• Double Dragon IV. Playing the tower mode and i can only reach 20th floor haha.
• Yakuza 6. I'm replaying this awesome game again, my 2nd playthrough. Currently on Chapters 6, tracking Haruto's "father" in Kamurocho. It's just funny cause Kiryu already meet the real father and punched him in previous chapter.

Have a great weekend everyone 👍🍻

I've tried this game for like an hour or two and after that i deleted it from my PS. It's not a bad game but it's not for me.

Nope. Never a fan of Battlefield.

@N1ghtW1ng Currently Disney owned The Simpsons IP after they bought Fox. So there's no difficulty to get a license from them, unless they charge a very expensives fee.

And they can make multiple collections that focus on each publishers like Acclaim, Konami, and EA.

Don't care about Fortnite but talking about The Simpsons, it's just weird that no one try to do The Simpsons games collection.

Heck, i'm surprised no company wants to remaster The Simpsons: Hit and Run which probably the best Simpsons game after the arcde beat em up by Konami.

Wow. How on earth someone from Treyarch / Activision approved this???

But I'm just glad all current fighting games still used skill-based matchmaking. There's no case where i'm boot up ranked match in SF 6 and somehow i got matchup with a Rookie rank player or any player with far below my rank. I don't feel any satisfaction from beating beginners-intermediate players.
