One of the best games of 2023 for me, and Clive was a great character, story was great and the music was epic. Also Ben Starr was excellent for the voice of Clive.
Also he was on a episode of the Christmas Maze for Playstation Access today and he was hilarious if anybody want's to check that out.
I love the Legendary Edition of Mass Effect so good for him to go out on such a high note.
I do hope that EA does a similar thing for Dragon Age before Dragon Age 4 comes out. Dragon Age 1-Inquisition with all DLC would be one amazing collection to play through before Dragon Age 4 and worth the $60-$70.
Yeah I'm really excited for this game but it being a souls like(not a fan of the genre but can appreciate it) kindof dims my interest a bit. If it's not too difficult I might still play it, depending on the reviews and what they say.
I'm happy that they made some DLC and I might give it a try but I'm not much of a Roguelike fan.
I mainly am hoping for some Thrud DLC because it would be a shame to never play as her. Or a spinoff game when you play as her, Angrboda, and Atreus(different points in the story). That seems like it would be a good game and setup of the future of God of War nicely.
After playing the Alpha I can say that that story seems a bit interesting but that gameplay is just such a drag. Not that fun at all. The gunplay just seems bland and the abilities just don't seem fun.
Also listening to Harley Quinn and the awkward interactions between the team(except King Shark) for 20+ hours is a bit much. Her voice can be a bit much, but King Shark is funny lol.
I feel like if they could have made this similar to The Batman games it could have been awesome.
I am excited for this(one of my favorite series of all time) and can't wait to see the end of the Solas Story. Also hoping we get some characters to come back and join the party from all 3 games.
I do hope EA does the easy thing before it comes out and make a Dragon Age Collection like they did for Mass Effect. That seems like easy money to me and everyone would love to play all 3 games on current systems.
I'm excited for the roguelike mode in the remaster and I don't even play roguelike's that often, but the gameplay in Last of Us Part 2 is amazing so it should be fun. I am curious what the unique abilities for each character are though.
I'll also play through it for the third time because that story is intense from beginning to end, whether you like it not. It being a $10 upgrade makes playing one of favorite games of all time even easier.
How could they mess up the best villian in Cod? Kind of a shame that they couldn't make a good story with Makarov in the remake. The orginal Mw3 was insane so I was hoping they would make this just as good.
@theheadofabroom yeah that would be cool. I feel like after seeing Spider-Man 2 and how you can switch between Miles and Peter, and the reaction people had to Thrud and Angrboda would make Sony Santa Monica consider putting all 3 of them in the game. Switching between them would make it fun/easy too.
I mean I'd love a new game when you play as the younger generation. I mainly want to play as Thrud and Angrboda and I feel like most GOW players would agree with me lol. Watching them fight alongside you in Ragnarok made me want to try those moves out for myself.
I do want to play as Atreus as well but he's nowhere near as fun as them, at least not yet. So hopefully it's all 3 of them. Come on Sony Santa Montica lol.
This is good month of games for Extra. The Premium games are good I guess, I've just never been into playing old games like that on a new console. I feel like Sony is the same way with Premium, mainly focus on Extra and base PS Plus.
I might finally play Disco Elysium after Spider-Man 2. Maybe give House of Ashes a go too finally. Good Job Playstation with this Month.
Hoping to hear more about Stellar Blade at least. A Nintendo Direct and a State of Play on the same day, should be fun.
Also hopefully people will not overreact to this State of Play since it's Indies and Third Party Games, I say that and know people will but here's hoping.
I also assume their not showing first party games because of Spider-Man, so that Spider-Man is the main first party focus. Once this is over Tomorrow they hype train and trailers probably start for Spider-Man.
I always thought this game would be good and I'm glad it turned out to be a good game. If people can get past the character designs(which I don't think is a issue, they look cool and it's something new) then people can enjoy a good game.
Funny when they first showed this game at one of the PS Showcases all people kept saying was "who asks for this or why these weird character designs".
I hope they use the cash flow they get from increasing the prices to get bigger titles for Extra and maybe Day 1 releases more often. If that's the real reason then I'm totally behind it, even if it's a major increase.
Always been interested in Trine Games. Might give this a try down the line.
I like these Mini Reviews, I am curious if Goodbye Volcano High gets a review since it came out today. Have been interested in that game since it's in the same vein as Life is Strange.
EA could buy them some more time for DreadWolf if they decided to do a Dragon Age Collection. It would help build up hype for Dragon Age 4 and get BioWare some goodwill going into this game after how bad Anthem was and how decent Andromeda was.
I mean if you wait till Black Friday this game will probably be $20-$25 which will be nice. Typical Ubisoft, wait for a month and the game is half off lol.
I am interested in this game but not nothing anything about the fate series(one anime series I've always wanted to get into but there's a lot too it) is kind of making me have a wait and see approach.
Going to be tough to pick between this and Eternights since they come out a week apart. Sept. 21st vs Sept. 29th.
I'm hoping at TGS Koei Tecmo finally shows us some brand new Dynasty Warriors or more importantly Samurai Warriors info.
Kind of with the new character wasn't another support character, seeing as the last one was a support character lol.
I do agree with everyone though that this game needs more content. Them cutting the single player content and just doing it in chunks is a huge mistake.
I get that people are tired of the COD games but Makarov is one of the best villian's COD has so I am excited to play MW3. Just curios how they handle his story, and obviously No Russian.
This show is getting some good reviews out their and the fact that it's 10 episodes and their only 30mins makes it way easier to watch. Sweet Tooth being cool also is good, hopefully he gets the flames somehow in Season 2 if it does well enough to warrant one.
I mean the DLC would be great if they actually added stages with the characters, as in the Treasure Log levels. Just adding characters to play with in the Treasure Log after you've beaten it doesn't really make you want to play the game again just for that.
Hopefully they add some stuff with the new characters after all these years, since a new game is years away.
I am excited to see what changes they make to the series going forward. I do hope they make some changes to the franchise/career mode, and hopefully add a women's version so you can manage a women's team.
All of the games looked good except for the live service games(not including Marathon and Destiny).
Revenant Hill looks like it's going to be fun, Sword of the Sea looks like it's going to be an enjoyable time. Plucky Squire looks amazing, and Neva looks like it will be great. Phantom Blade looks awesome but who knows when that comes out, Cat Quest games are always good, and Granblue looks great but needs a exact date lol. MGS, Alan Wake, Final Fantasy 16, Street Fighter 6 and Assassin's Creed all look great(especially FF16 and SF6).
I get that the main issue everyone is having is that their weren't really any Playstation Studios First Party games but I think we just need to wait till later in the year to see if they have another even specifically for that.
I'd rather Sony show Last of Us Factions, Ghost 2, Sony Santa Montica's new games, Bluepoint's next game and also Sony Bend's next game when they actually have something to show. Not just a trailer or concept art like we got yesterday for the Live service games.
So just be patient and relax. Which I know most people will keep complaining until they actually see something besides Spider-Man 2 lol.
Every game in this showcase actually looked pretty good, the indie's look interested and I don't usually play a lot of indies.
The third party games all looked good. Phantom Blade 0 was a shock in a good way but that isn't coming this year.
It was a really good show for me especially with the Spider Man 2 gameplay and MGS 3. Sword in the Sea and Neva looked amazing too.
I get people will be mad that we didn't see First Party games besides Haven and Firewalk(besides Spider-Man and Hell Divers(which isn't a first party but is being published by Sony)), but give the Live Service games a chance until you actually see gameplay. I feel like everyone is overreacting lol.
Also Granblue Fantasy release time window finally lol.
I do hope that if they announce a Astrobot 2 that it will also be playable on the PS5. I really want to play a full length Astro game(besides Playroom) but don't want to shell out for a VR2 headset(even though I am interested in it).
Oh I am very excited to see what they show next week, I know Sony will knock it out the park.
I do hope that EA will announce a Dragon Age Remastered Collection(Origins-Inquisition) to come out this year. I feel like it would sell pretty well and it makes total sense for them to release that with Dragon Age 4 a year/year and a half away.
It can be announced at some other point this summer but to see it here would be cool.
I mean if this is true it seems like their doing this to quickly follow up on the ending/ending credits to MW2(No Russian) with Makarov so the story hopefully will be better. The original MW3 with him was ridiculous so hopefully this follows suit.
I'll play it(rent it), but am not excited for it since these games seem to literally be the same thing year after year.
Sony just needs to tie the knot with Square Enix at this point. It just seems to perfect.
Just imagine if during the supposed Playstation Showcase in June if they announce "We welcome Square Enix to the Playstation Family", everyone would lose their mind and at the same time say "yeah it makes sense".
I mean give me a game when I can play as Atreus, Angrboda and Thrud(Angrboda and Thrud had some awesome looking moves) with Tyr maybe being a mentor or something and that will be awesome.
Also a game with those three would be great in general. Playing through Ragnarok I wanted to play as Angrboda and Thrud at least once because of how awesome their attacks looked.
I won't ever play this game(unless it's on Extra maybe) but I am here to watch Rob Pearson of Playstation Access play it. I feel like that's the only reason this game exist to be honest lol.
The Smeagol impression for a whole stream will be hilarious.
I loved this episode. The interactions between Riley and Ellie were funny and adorable.
I am concerned that they will speed through the David stuff. I feel like David deserves two episodes because David vs Ellie is a huge moment in the first game. Doing all that in 50 or so mins isn't enough justice. Hopefully it's well done. Also seeing Troy Baker in it should be fun.
I mean Cammy looked amazing. I mean her new look makes her actually hotter if that was possible. They had the one part during the combat basically when she showed of her physique. Capcom knows what their doing lol. Her moveset looks awesome.
Lily looked like a fun new character. Zangief is his usual self, tough, a stubborn moveset to fight against but also a cool character as usual.
@get2sammyb True, plus with the great storytelling that comes with Yakuza games you know that people will be drawn into that. The story piques your interest and then you want to know more about the two main protagonist real life counterparts.
I think it's actually cool that Kazuma is Ryoma Sakamoto who is considered a hero in Japan. Whatever take they have on his story should be enjoyable and hopefully get people in the US(and other countries) to learn about his story. Great person to be a main character in a video game.
The best part about this game is going to be watching Rob from Playstation Access play it and do his Gollum impression the entire stream. Besides that, this game doesn't look good at all lol.
Their are some good reviews out their and some bad reviews. It all depends on who you follow and trust when it comes to gaming reviews. I can recommend the Easy Allies Review and the Gameinformer, Playstation Lifestyle and Destructoid reviews as well as they did a good job really describing and detailing the game(Also the future Pushsquare one).
This game being a 6-7 is not surprising at all. If it does even a little bit well and it gets a sequel I believe that Square would actually give Luminous or whoever they let make the sequel more time and money to do it. Most reviews kind of say that if given more time this game could have been better. A sequel could help if it actually happens.
The fact that the Dialogue and story/script are so bad isn't surprising but it sucks for Elle Balinska. I like her as a actress, and even some people that have covered the game said they like her but if your given a bad script/bad story theirs not much you can do as a actor/actress.
I've been thinking for a while that it would make a ton of sense for Sony to buy Square Enix. They partner together on almost every Final Fantasy(Promotion wise, and recently exclusivity wise) and I'm sure Forspoken won't be the only console exclusive game that Square has in store for Sony.
I actually would like to see this happen for both parties involved. It just makes sense. Also Sony could maybe help them with their AA titles like Diofield and Valkyrie Elysium or others of that same ilk. Games that could make a good series but just need a bit more polish and probably budget.
Probably one of the best parts of the game, hands down.
I hope we get to play as Thrud and Angrboda in the next game(along with Atreus lol). Watching Thrud fight side by side with you with her cool moves always made me think "It would be cool to play as her", same with Angrboda.
Hopefully Sony Santa Montica gives us the chance to play as those two amazing characters.
Christopher Judge's speech wasn't that bad. He didn't win the award 4 years ago and with some of the stuff he probably went through during the development and just everyone with Covid in general, it was well deserved and funny at points.
One of the games I'm most excited for. I've been waiting since I beat Inquisition years and years ago. Loved Inquisition. Solas was actually a good character and the ending you get during the Trespasser DLC if your good friends with him is awesome. Him wanting to save the Elves makes total sense if you've played the games and know the lore, he's just doing it in a way too drastic way.
I do hope we see something at The Game Awards but please don't have Varric as a team member again. He shouldn't have been in Inquisition as a member. He's fine as a mouthpiece/storyteller.
I also hope Leliana comes back as a playable character.
I was hoping to downgrade to Extra from Premium since my Membership doesn't end until Dec.26th.
Also the easiest way to fix this is to just cancel your current membership and downgrade but I understand if you have months and months left you probably don't want to do that.
I might just cancel mine to downgrade since I'm not really into streaming old games and the classics.
Every month people keep thinking that Sony is going to add PS1/PS2 games and I feel like we all knew that they were only going to add them sparingly because I feel like they could care less about those games and are more so focused on PS4/PS5 and even PS3 since that's what people mainly want.
I could see them adding certain classics if they were getting remakes in the near future though but for some of these classic games/series that's a longshot.
I have the highest tier just to see how the streaming is(It's not that good lol) and I have never once thought about playing the classics except Rogue Galaxy(Already owned it). Might just be me but people might need to realize that the classics are going to pop up every once in a while for the people that want to play really really old games on current gen. It's not a major priority for Sony to focus on those games.
This is a great addition, I also hope they add a women's career mode/franchise mode if possible. NBA 2K too a while to do it and they improved it this year so here's hoping EA can do it for FIFA.

Re: The Last of Us 2 PS5 Remaster's Roguelike Mode Reportedly Comprises 12 Levels

Re: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's First PS5, PS4 Campaign Review Is a Massacre
How could they mess up the best villian in Cod? Kind of a shame that they couldn't make a good story with Makarov in the remake. The orginal Mw3 was insane so I was hoping they would make this just as good.
Re: God of War's Next PS5 Game Could Be Revealed Before the End of the Year
@theheadofabroom yeah that would be cool.

This is good month of games for Extra. The Premium games are good I guess, I've just never been into playing old games like that on a new console. I feel like Sony is the same way with Premium, mainly focus on Extra and base PS Plus.
I might finally play Disco Elysium after Spider-Man 2. Maybe give House of Ashes a go too finally. Good Job Playstation with this Month.
Gotham Knight might worth a hour or two lol.
Re: Preview: Bandai Namco Is a Publisher Quietly on the Up
I'm hoping that Synduality: Echo of Ada is good. The anime so far is actually pretty good so it gives me hopes the game is a interesting spin on that.
Sand Land looks like it will be fun but we just need to see more.
Tekken 8 we don't need to really say anything more about. It will be awesome, no doubt about it.
Re: State of Play Livestream Revealed for Thursday, a Focus on Indie and Third-Party Games
Hoping to hear more about Stellar Blade at least. A Nintendo Direct and a State of Play on the same day, should be fun.
Also hopefully people will not overreact to this State of Play since it's Indies and Third Party Games, I say that and know people will but here's hoping.
I also assume their not showing first party games because of Spider-Man, so that Spider-Man is the main first party focus. Once this is over Tomorrow they hype train and trailers probably start for Spider-Man.

Something new is not always bad.
Re: Reaction: Has Sony Put Together the Worst PS Plus Month Ever?
I hope they use the cash flow they get from increasing the prices to get bigger titles for Extra and maybe Day 1 releases more often. If that's the real reason then I'm totally behind it, even if it's a major increase.
Re: Mini Review: Trine 5: A Clockwork Conspiracy (PS5) - A Well Rounded, Fresh But Familiar Puzzle Platformer

Re: Persona-Inspired Eternights Launches a Little Earlier Than Planned on PS5, PS4
This game looks cool but could definitely use a Overview Trailer to show like the day to day and how the bonds/relationships work.
I am interested in getting it, but wouldn't be surprised if it's half off by Black Friday.
Re: BioWare Cuts Roughly 50 Jobs, But Still Confident Dragon Age: Dreadwolf Will Reach 'Full Potential'

Re: Fate/Samurai Remnant's Anime Opening Hypes What Could Be a Surprise PS5, PS4 Hit
@jorel262 True, every time I look at Fate I think it looks cool.

Re: Assassin's Creed Mirage Returns to Series Roots, But Won't Ditch Cosmetic Microtransactions

Re: TV Show Review: Twisted Metal - Car Crash Entertainment

Re: Feature: PlayStation Showcase Biggest Winners and Losers
All of the games looked good except for the live service games(not including Marathon and Destiny).
Revenant Hill looks like it's going to be fun, Sword of the Sea looks like it's going to be an enjoyable time. Plucky Squire looks amazing, and Neva looks like it will be great. Phantom Blade looks awesome but who knows when that comes out, Cat Quest games are always good, and Granblue looks great but needs a exact date lol. MGS, Alan Wake, Final Fantasy 16, Street Fighter 6 and Assassin's Creed all look great(especially FF16 and SF6).

Re: New God of War Game Seemingly Teased by Tyr's Voice Actor

I think it's actually cool that Kazuma is Ryoma Sakamoto who is considered a hero in Japan. Whatever take they have on his story should be enjoyable and hopefully get people in the US(and other countries) to learn about his story. Great person to be a main character in a video game.
Re: PS5, PS4's The Lord of the Rings: Gollum Will Finally Launch by September 2023
The best part about this game is going to be watching Rob from Playstation Access play it and do his Gollum impression the entire stream. Besides that, this game doesn't look good at all lol.
Re: Round Up: Forspoken's Divided Reviews Make for Some Rough Reading
Their are some good reviews out their and some bad reviews. It all depends on who you follow and trust when it comes to gaming reviews. I can recommend the Easy Allies Review and the Gameinformer, Playstation Lifestyle and Destructoid reviews as well as they did a good job really describing and detailing the game(Also the future Pushsquare one).
This game being a 6-7 is not surprising at all. If it does even a little bit well and it gets a sequel I believe that Square would actually give Luminous or whoever they let make the sequel more time and money to do it. Most reviews kind of say that if given more time this game could have been better. A sequel could help if it actually happens.
Re: Round Up: Forspoken's Divided Reviews Make for Some Rough Reading
The fact that the Dialogue and story/script are so bad isn't surprising but it sucks for Elle Balinska. I like her as a actress, and even some people that have covered the game said they like her but if your given a bad script/bad story theirs not much you can do as a actor/actress.
Re: Square Enix Commits to Business Consolidation in 2023 as Sony Buyout Rumours Start Again
I've been thinking for a while that it would make a ton of sense for Sony to buy Square Enix. They partner together on almost every Final Fantasy(Promotion wise, and recently exclusivity wise) and I'm sure Forspoken won't be the only console exclusive game that Square has in store for Sony.
I actually would like to see this happen for both parties involved. It just makes sense. Also Sony could maybe help them with their AA titles like Diofield and Valkyrie Elysium or others of that same ilk. Games that could make a good series but just need a bit more polish and probably budget.
Re: Interview: Talking Biceps and Norse Studies with God of War Ragnarok's Mina Sundwall
Probably one of the best parts of the game, hands down.
I hope we get to play as Thrud and Angrboda in the next game(along with Atreus lol). Watching Thrud fight side by side with you with her cool moves always made me think "It would be cool to play as her", same with Angrboda.
Hopefully Sony Santa Montica gives us the chance to play as those two amazing characters.
Re: Poll: How Would You Rate The Game Awards 2022?
Christopher Judge's speech wasn't that bad. He didn't win the award 4 years ago and with some of the stuff he probably went through during the development and just everyone with Covid in general, it was well deserved and funny at points.
The Eric is a mfing beast moment was funny.
Re: Quick Dragon Age: Dreadwolf Trailer Talks Up Main Villain
One of the games I'm most excited for. I've been waiting since I beat Inquisition years and years ago. Loved Inquisition. Solas was actually a good character and the ending you get during the Trespasser DLC if your good friends with him is awesome. Him wanting to save the Elves makes total sense if you've played the games and know the lore, he's just doing it in a way too drastic way.
I do hope we see something at The Game Awards but please don't have Varric as a team member again. He shouldn't have been in Inquisition as a member. He's fine as a mouthpiece/storyteller.
I also hope Leliana comes back as a playable character.
Re: Disgruntled PS Plus Premium Members Can't Downgrade for Black Friday Discount
I was hoping to downgrade to Extra from Premium since my Membership doesn't end until Dec.26th.
Also the easiest way to fix this is to just cancel your current membership and downgrade but I understand if you have months and months left you probably don't want to do that.
I might just cancel mine to downgrade since I'm not really into streaming old games and the classics.
Re: PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for November 2022 Announced
Every month people keep thinking that Sony is going to add PS1/PS2 games and I feel like we all knew that they were only going to add them sparingly because I feel like they could care less about those games and are more so focused on PS4/PS5 and even PS3 since that's what people mainly want.
I could see them adding certain classics if they were getting remakes in the near future though but for some of these classic games/series that's a longshot.
I have the highest tier just to see how the streaming is(It's not that good lol) and I have never once thought about playing the classics except Rogue Galaxy(Already owned it). Might just be me but people might need to realize that the classics are going to pop up every once in a while for the people that want to play really really old games on current gen. It's not a major priority for Sony to focus on those games.
Re: Women's Champions League Added to FIFA 23 Next Year
This is a great addition, I also hope they add a women's career mode/franchise mode if possible. NBA 2K too a while to do it and they improved it this year so here's hoping EA can do it for FIFA.
