@Shigurui Hey there friend. Having finished Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, I have to agree with you though. It´s basicaly NGS2. I kinda wanted them to actualy remake the original Xbox 360 version instead. But I´ll take what I can get. Replying to @JorutoHayabusa, I have played all versions of all Ninja Gaiden games out there, being a Huge fan of these games. They do have some interesting differences, but I do prefer the original versions of NGB, NG2 and if I´m in the mood, NG3 Razors Edge. Wich I might play it again just for the sake of it while I wait for Ninja Gaiden 4. Cheers friends and have a good one
Hello there fellow gamers. Having already finished Ninja Gaiden 2 Black on my Series X and now replaying it on Hard mode and enjoying a lot, I also decided to revisit the OG Ninja Gaiden Black, my personal favourite NG and still one of the BEST action adventure games ever made, in my opinion. Might also go for the Sigma version as well. I love these games so much and I´m very glad the franchise is coming back with NG 2 Black, NG 4 and NG Ragebound. The year of the Ninja indeed! Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers. I´ll be playing the awesome Ninja Gaiden 2 Black. That is all...... Ok, maybe some Street Fighter 6 online as well. Have to give my friend @Zuljaras a shout out. Your taste in videogames is as great as mine 😜 Enjoy them! Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Hello there fellow gamers. It´s very cliché, but Ninja Gaidens Fans rejoice, WE ARE SO BACK!! All I could think about before the Direct was "If is Ninja Gaiden, I´m gonna lose it." And it was. Not only we´re getting a brand new NG game with Ninja Gaiden 4 but also Ninja Gaiden " Black...... TODAY!!!! I´m kinda overwhelmed right now. This was the BEST Xbox Developer_Direct. I´m Beyond Happy! This year is going to be insane for gaming all around. Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all
Hello there fellow gamers. This is actualy some really good news, especially after all the unfortunate layoffs that´s been plaguing this industry. And since I am a huge fan of this type of games, is very nice to see them florish once again. Kudos for all the great talent were seeing, not only from Chinese developers but also from Korea as well. I do believe were going to see way more awesome games from all over Asia, bringing their style and flavor to the gaming scene, more so on console and PC. Keep them coming, that what I say. Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers.
I am one of those PS users that also have an Xbox, so this is perfect for me.
I really enjoy the Xbox controller for shooters, racers and some action adventure games.
But for fighting games???
No, not really. At all. Thats why I got the 8BitDo Pro 2 Wired Controller, with Hall Effect joysticks. Just so I could play my fighting games properly...... And some other games on my PC.
It´s a pretty good controller, but this one looks even better.
Definitely considering this as a 2025 purchase for my Xbox.
Cheers and happy gaming
Hello there fellow gamers. Just want to wish a Happy New Year of 2025, full of great games and amazing experiences. Here´s hopping this Hobby of ours (Passion for me personaly) never ends and keeps on improving with memorable moments of excitment and joy all around. Cheers everyone and happy 2025 gaming to us all
Hello there fellow gamers. Just want to wish to the Push Square staff and to everybody a Merry Christmas and Happy Gaming Holidays with your loved ones. Cheers everyone and all the very best
@Zuljaras buddy, you are in for a treat. Witcher 3 is one of the best rpgs ever made and it has the best expassions ever made also. It´s my oppinion, but trust me it´s that good.
@PuppetMaster (great name by the way) Guacamelee! Super Turbo Champhionship Edition is so good. The second game is even better. Loved the humour as well. And Ikaruga...... First played it on Dreamcast and then on GameCube. And yes, t´s quite difficult at first. But there is actually a tell, or a pattern to it. Challenging but a lot of fun.
@playstation1995 my man what´s good? Mafia: Definitive Edition is a really good remake of a great game. Can´t wait for Mafia The Old Country. That trailer looked great. And Family Matters is an old tv classic. One of the bests.
Hello there fellow gamers. This weekend will probably finish Hellblade 2 and continue my Metaphor Refantazio journey on my Series X. On my PS5, I´m currently playing Black Myth Wukong and Street Fighter 6 online...... And maybe will play more Clive in Tekken 8. Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
@JohntheRaptor Hello there friend. That´s good to know, since there is always new game plus if I want to do it with english voice acting. To change things up a bit. Cheers and have a good one
Hello there fellow gamers. Yes, I've got some time off work and I do plan on both playing something new and dive into my backlog. Just started Black Myth Wukong(my birthday present) and will also try and finish Metaphor Refantazio, Cyberpunk 2077 and Star Wars Outlaws. Might also dable into Astrobot Lost levels. Hope everybody as a Happy Gaming Chistmas with your loved ones. Cheers
Hello there fellow gamers.
Yeah, no. Yakuza/like a Dragon games always in their original Japanese voices thank you very much.
In that regard, I´m like my friend @Dalamar, I try to play most games in their original language.
Just like I´m doing with Black Myth Wukong, playing in Chinese.
It just feels more authentic that way..... To me at least.
Plus, Hidenari Ugaki is Majima. He is just perfect for the role.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers. This game is, without a doubt, my most anticipated game of whatever year it comes out....... Besides the new Mass Effect. I´m so in for this project from Archetype Entertainment. They seem very passionate about it and can´t wait to see more. Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers; My Top 5 most anticipated games of 2025 are:
Assassin´s Creed Shadows;
Crimson Desert;
Death Strandind 2 On the Beach;
Ghost of Yotei;
Judas. If I can add other 5 games, they are:
Bleach: Rebirth of Souls;
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33;
Fatal Fury City of the Wolves;
Hell is Us;
Metal Gear Solid Delta. Of course, there are more games that I´m interested in, but this is a big enough list. I´m starting to think that I am just collecting these games. There is just not enough time to play them all. I´m tryin, but it´s quite difficult. All in all, 2025 will be another amazing year for PS5. Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers; Even though my vote went to Onimusha Way of the Sword, because about fricking time, there are many others announcements that really resonated with me, such as:
Project Robot by Ueda-san. Shadow of the Collossus is still one of my favourite games of all time. Very excited for this one;
Okami sequel. Here´s a game I would never even believe would exist. And with Kamiya-san at the helm. Best timeline;
Ninja Gaiden Ragebound. A NG 2d game by The Game Kitchen. What an awesome combination;
Virtua Fighter and Project Century. RGG keep on delivering and don´t seem to fail. I´m so happy VF is back. Want to see more;
Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. It´s a Sci-Fi, Bounty Hunter, 80s vibe game by Naughty Dog Studio. Don´t think I need to say anything else. I´m absolutely sold on this.
Some of the best announcements I´ve seen in a long time. And the backlog keeps on growing, huh? It is what it is 😜 Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers. A brand new game from the GOATs Naughty Dog Studio? And it´s Sci-Fi? And Akira and Cowboy Bebop inspired? That is a DAY ONE purchase for me for sure. Loved the vibe and aesthetic of the trailer. And the soundtrack by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross is going to be amazing. Did I say this is a day one purchase? Because it is. Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers; Okay, listen...... Bringing back Onimusha was something I´ve been wanting for years and Capcom is doing that. But OKAMI????? For real??? And Kamiya-san is the director?? This is beyond amazing. I´m starting to think that DINO Crisis and Breath of Fire MIGHT actualy have a chance of coming back..... My friends @Fizza @Zeldorf @WanderingBullet @Ichiban, we are living in the right timeline and it´s absolutely glorious! Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers; This was definitely a BIG anouncement. As a HUGE Onimusha fan who´s been waiting years for a new entry, I´m beyond happy it´s finaly happening. And like my friend @Fizza is saying, is Capcom becoming the CAPGOD of old? It sure feels like it and we are here to enjoy it. Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers; One of the highlist of the show for sure. RGG Studio is cooking hard. They are working on both this and the VF project and we´ll be getting Yakuza in Hawai next year..... I´m so in for this. Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers; For an Yakuza game, it´s just normal stuff 😂 But the fact that it´s Majima doing all that is just glorious. Ever since I played Yakuza 0, Goro Majima is the character that as made the most impression on me. His introduction in that game is AMAZING. This game is gonna be crazy bonkers and I´m here for it. Another great game to be excited for 2025. Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Hello there fellow gamers.
I´m an old fashioned man, so going to a store to purchase games is very natural to me.
I also love to actualy OWN my games or any other media, including books, movies and albums.
As an example, on November 15, I went as soon as I could, I went to my local shopping center to purchase the new Linkin Park album. I was the very first person to get it there.
Now, I could´ve got it and listened to it at midnight, but for me, nothing beats opening the album, putting the CD on, grabing the book with the lyrics and just enjoy the music being played.
I do exactely the same thing with videogames and movies.
I´m so worried about this, that I am making sure I try to get as many games that I want to have and play, as much as possible.
And being able to pre-order, making them cheaper and using deals like pay two and get three with the pre-order is just the icing on the cake for me.
There is also the fact that some games you can wait for a few months and get them cheaper or on a sale and with physical games you can let a friend borrow them as well.
Have done that quite a few times.
Do I also buy digital? Yes, when ever there is a really good sale.
But if I can, I´ll pay a bit more to have the case with the disc.
Some times, I´ll even doble dip and get some games on multiple platforms. Those being PS5 and Series X.
But that´s just me though, I´m weird like that 😜
Hopefully, physical media will never stop being a thing.
But if it does, well, then I´ll still have my collection to enjoy.
Cheers and happy gaming

@Zuljaras Hi there friend.
You´ve got some bangers to play, as always.
Don´t know if it is the very first time you´re playing RE4, but Capcom did an amazing job with the Remake.
Still one of the BEST games ever made in my opinion.
I´ve been tempted to replay SOTN for the 7th time.... Or any other Castlevania for that matter. But there are to many games to play and the backlog keeps on growing 😜
Cheers and have a good one
Hello there fellow gamers; On this weekend I´ll continue playing the following games:
Metaphor Refantazio, finaly have the last party member with 78 hours played. Don´t really want it to end as I´m loving the game;
Cyberpunk 2077, who knew I would have so much fun just exploring Night City. Another game were I never use fast travel;
Street Fighter 6, new game balance patch, means more reasons to play the game. And there is Also Giant Atack Boss Sirn Bison on Battle Hub wich is fun to fight and somehow, not as difficult as Sirn Akuma was back then. Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Hello there fellow gamers; This weekend I´ll probably go back to the amazing Cyberpunk 2077 and finaly play The Phamtom Liberty dlc. Will also go back to play the also amazing Metaphor Refantazio. One of the best RPGs out there. I do tend to stop playing games when I get closer to the end. Weird, right? And will probably play some Street Fighter 6 online. There are so many games in my backlog, that I don´t even know what to do sometimes. Oh well, not a bad problem to have 😜 Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Hello there fellow gamers. Great news for any gamer like myself that enjoys owning their games in physical form. Will be getting this as soon as possible. Thanks for the good news @LiamCroft. Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Hello there fellow gamers; This weekend I´m all about Metaphor ReFantazio on my Series X and Street Fighter 6 on my PS5. Been having a lot of fun online matches with some pretty good players in SF6. Also, it has been awhile since I´ve been so enamored with a turn based rpg like Metaphor and I do think this will be my game for the next months. Although, I do want to finish at least one playtrough of both Sillent Hill 2 and Alan Wake 2 as well. So many good games to play. Gamers are eating good. Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Hello there fellow gamers; For me, my favourite anounced games were:
Ghost of Yotei;
Hell is US;
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered;
ArcheAge Chronicles;
Lunar Remastered Collection. And I agree with @colonelkilgore, Hell is Us looks super interesting and it may very well be a hidden gem. That game is right up my alley. Can´t wait to see more of it. Looking forward to all of these games. There´s just not enough time during the day to play them all 😜 Not a bad State of Play in my book. Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all
Hello there fellow gamers. I don´t actually know what to say but...... An Yakuza Action Pirate Game starring Majima Goro? Yes please and thank you. This Franchise is nuts and I love it. Just When I Thought I Was Out, They Pull Me Back In! Cheers everyone and happy pirate gaming
Hello there fellow gamers. This was the GAME every PS5 user needed for a long time. A game that is just fun, joyful and a bit chalenging when it needs be. You can feel the passion the team had making this game, with all the references and since I´ve only done the first two worlds, (I was smiling the entire time in the God of War level) I´m very curious with other franchises I´ll see. It´s a fun and colorful game that also celebrates Playstation. What´s there not to love? Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Hello there fellow gamers. Interesting topic. Although I do consider FFVIII one of the best, It´s not necessarily the best Final Fantasy game ever made, mostly because there are many different FF games out there. I am one of the weirdos that does very much like FFVIII, FFXIII, FFXVI, FFIV and FFVI, wich is still my personal favourite FF game to be the very best of the bunch. I also really like FFVII Rebirth and can´t wait for FFVII Revengence(that´s what I´m callin it) to finish the story. But you can´t deny how important FFVIII was, with the beautiful and amazing opening movie, the whole Laguna storyline and, of course, Triple Triad mini-game that made many other mini-games in many other RPGs to become a thing. So happy Birthday to one of the best FF games and make a Remake of it SquareEnix.... And FFVI. Pretty please? Maybe 😜 Cheers everyone and happy RPG gaming to us all
Hello there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´ll be playing Astro Bot, wich is the best game ever, more Street Fighter 6 online matches, learned some new Ryu combos gotta do them in a match and continue Kay Vess Star Wars Outlaws journey all on my PS5.
I´m putting my Series X on rest until I get my physical copies of Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition, Metaphor: Refantazio and Assassins Creed Sahdows...... Or until I decide to play Control or Lies of P again 😜
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
@Loamy Hello there friend. Yeah, Gaming has always been both a hobby and a passion of mine, so I clearly have enthusiasm and positivity about the Gaming Universe. Also agree with your point, we are indeed spoilt for choice these days in terms of great games out there, and yet, some people find something to complaint about instead of enjoying the things they actualy do enjoy. Go figure. Oh well, Cheers and have a good one
Hello there fellow gamers; I have to agree with @Vivisapprentice @ApostateMage @Hyena_socks @Loamy and @Westernwolf4 , I am also really enjoying the game. It is a Star Wars game that feels like Star Wars, it has the vibe, the ambiance, the style and many references to the source material, has it should any adaptation have. I do think the highlights for me are the actual Space exploration and Space combat as well as the different factions that may get in favour with some and not so good with others. Does it have it´s flaws? Oh yes, it does have indeed. Gunplay could be a litle better as well as the games stealth. But overall, it´s a pretty good game and more importantly, I´m having a lot of fun with it. Isn´t that what matters the most? Cheers everyone and happy gaming
@frankmcma Hello there friend. So, the stealth missions can be a little anoying, because you don´t get many checkpoints and you can also loose points of a specific faction, wich might not be ideal. Fortunately, they are not that difficult, once you know what to do and were to go. And since the game has many upgrades and abilities to unlock, it also makes those missions easier to do. But the game is quite fun and engaging. At least so far. Cheers and have a good one
Hello there fellow gamers; This weekend I´ll be playing Star Wars Outlaws and Street Fighter 6 on my PS5 and replaying Control and Lies of P on my Series X. I´m really enjoying SW Outlaws, there is a lot to like and enjoy, plus it is a Star Wars game that looks and feels like Star Wars. Don´t understand the negativity surronding this game and others for that matter. People should just enjoy playing what they like. That´s what I do. Play games and enjoy them. Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
@playstation1995 What´s good my man! Yes indeed, both Phantom Blade Zero.and Lost Soul Aside are also in my radar. As soon as a release date is confirmed, I´ll be getting them day one for sure. Black myth Wukong is another I´m very interested in, once there is a physical copy of the game on PS5. Asia is becoming BIG in the gaming market. It´s great to see more devs making creative games on console. Cheers friend and Word Up Son
Hello there fellow gamers; Having finishing AC Mirage, a really good stealth game and finally finished the amazing Lies of P, I´m now currently thinking of playing Alone in the Dark and maybe, probably play Control for a third time on my Series X. I just love that game, it´s so fun. Although I do want to replay Lies of P for all the achievements.... And because the game is that good. Will also dable in Rise of the Ronin and some Street Fighter 6 matches on my PS5. Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
First of all, my condolences @Kraven. The feeling of loosing a loved one, special a parent(wich was my case, when I lost my Father when was 16) can be sometimes to much and no one knows how to feel or act. Gaming can be a very good medium to get lost in and think of nothing else. I still do that when life goes the wrong way. Even more if the game has characters and a story that resonates with you, especially in those moments. My sympathies friend and keep pushing.
Hello there fellow gamers. Crimson Desert has become one of my most anticipated and most wanted games, just like Judas, Death Stranding 2 and GTA6. It still looks very ambitious, but if the devs can pull this of, then I acompletely agrre with my friend @playstation1995 and say that action adventure RPG fans will be very pleased. Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Hello there fellow gamers. This game look absolutely incredible. The visual quality, the particles, the animations, the combat and the Bosses. I need this game NOW..... Or when ever the game is ready for release. Keep on cooking Pearl Abyss. We need more games like Crimson Desert. And yes, I completely agree with @QiaraIris, Korean and Chinese devs are on fire as of now and I do believe more awesome games will come from them. It´s great to see more devs from other countries making more ambitious console games. Keep being creative. Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Hello there fellow gamers; my list of games that I would like to see more of that I have not yet pre-purchased are:
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33;
Crimson Desert;
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach;
DOOM: The Dark Ages;
Lost Soul Aside. And I do expect a few surprises for sure. Also interested in:
Bleach: Rebirth of Souls;
Decapolice;
Dragon Age: The Veilguard;
Fatal Fury: City of the Wolves:
Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown. Lot´s of games to be excited about. As for new stuff, I don´t know, maybe a brand new FromSoftware PS5 game???? I guy can dream..... Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Hello there fellow gamers;
As much as i like and enjoy CVS series, I´m gonna follow our friend @get2sammyb and say RIVAL SCHOOLS!!!! All the way!
That is still one of the Bests new Original Capcom fighting game series they made way back in the day.
Still remember getting the first game on my PS1 for my birthday and playing both game discs. So much fun.
And the sequel on Sega Dreamcast was great as well.
Make it happen Capcom, I´ll buy it day one.
Here is still one of the best intros of a game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yd3bsH3u1rc. Enjoy.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Hello there fellow gamers. Having finished the amazing Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC on my PS5, now I´m back at playing Assassins Creed Odissey on my Series X. I´m pretty late to the party with AC Odissey and I don´t see why the game got so much flak. It is pretty great in my opinion. I´ve been pleasently surprised by the narrative and beautiful Greek landscapes. It is a BIG game, that´s for sure. Cheers and happy gaming weekend to us all
Hello there fellow gamers. I never saw or heard people complain when Team Ninjas Ni-Oh had Yasuke as a Main Boss character called the Obsidian Samurai, nor the fact that the main protagonist of that game was William Adams , a caucasian british silver haired fellow. There is also the point that Naoe, the other AC Shadows Protagonist is a Japanese Shinobi and not many people mentioned this. The game does have a Japanese MC. The fact that both Team Ninja and Ubisoft decided to "make" Yasuke a Samurai probably has to do with the word itself and what it means. The word Samurai comes from the Japanese verb saburau, which means "to serve and look up to someone." Yasuke, a former slave in a foreign land both served and look up to Oda Nobunaga, so it makes sense that Yasuke "become" a Samurai to protect, serve and honor is master..... Maybe even by choice this time around. Just my two cents on the matter. Myself, has a huge Samurai and Ninja fan, as well as fan of this types of games, I am very much excited to play AC Shadows. Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Hello there fellow gamers. This weekend is all about Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree. It´s all I can think about right now, playing this gem of a game. And Nothing Else Matters....... Until I´m done with it. Then, I´ll probably go back to AC Odissey and Rise of the Ronin. Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Hello there fellow gamers. I love when videogame developers do this kind of thing. Almost like a crossover art style between two different games. Kudos for CD Projekt Red acknowledging this immense feat. And yes, just like @DennisReynolds and @TheArt I also took a srceenshot of the very begining of the Realm of Shadow in Elden Ring. It was a, "Man, this looks so good" moment. Been enjoying myself exploring the intial area and the first Legacy Dungeon and its Boss. It was a very difficult fight. Having an absolute Blast with this DLC. Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Hello there fellow gamers. So I´m picking only three games, then they would be:
Astro Bot. It is exactly what many PS fans, myself included want it to happen ever since Astro´s playroom;
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. It came out of nowhere and it is clearly a game based of pure old school RPG passion ;
Phantom Blade Zero. Has a big fan of action adventure games, with cool and stylish combat mechanics, I am so in. Other honorable mentions:
AC Shadows;
Black Myth Wukong;
Doom Dark Ages;
Fatal Fury City of the Wolves;
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater;
Metaphor: ReFantazio;
Star Wars Outlaws. Lot´s of great games all around. And there´s even more games on Xbox to be excited about. In my case, at least. 2024 is already a pretty stacked year and 2025 looks to be no different. Now, if only I could have enough time to finish my backlog...... Oh well. Cheers and happy gaming everyone
And Kudos to you @Zuljaras. You always have some great and diverse games to play. Hollow Knight is one of the best MetroidVanias out there, Orange Box is one of the best compilation of games as well, Minish Cap is a pretty good Zelda game and BG3 is such a behemoth of a game that I haven´t dare started yet. But everything I´ve heard about it, is simply amazing.... And Big. Cheers and have a good one

Re: Ninja Gaiden 4 Is Already 70-80% Complete, Now in Polishing Phase for PS5
@Shigurui Hey there friend.
Having finished Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, I have to agree with you though.
It´s basicaly NGS2. I kinda wanted them to actualy remake the original Xbox 360 version instead. But I´ll take what I can get.
Replying to @JorutoHayabusa, I have played all versions of all Ninja Gaiden games out there, being a Huge fan of these games.
They do have some interesting differences, but I do prefer the original versions of NGB, NG2 and if I´m in the mood, NG3 Razors Edge.
Wich I might play it again just for the sake of it while I wait for Ninja Gaiden 4.
Cheers friends and have a good one
Re: Ninja Gaiden 4 Is Already 70-80% Complete, Now in Polishing Phase for PS5
Hello there fellow gamers.
Having already finished Ninja Gaiden 2 Black on my Series X and now replaying it on Hard mode and enjoying a lot, I also decided to revisit the OG Ninja Gaiden Black, my personal favourite NG and still one of the BEST action adventure games ever made, in my opinion.
Might also go for the Sigma version as well.
I love these games so much and I´m very glad the franchise is coming back with NG 2 Black, NG 4 and NG Ragebound.
The year of the Ninja indeed!
Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 565
Hello there fellow gamers.
I´ll be playing the awesome Ninja Gaiden 2 Black.
That is all...... Ok, maybe some Street Fighter 6 online as well.
Have to give my friend @Zuljaras a shout out. Your taste in videogames is as great as mine 😜 Enjoy them!
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Re: Ninja Gaiden 4 Announced, Slashes to PS5 This Year with PlatinumGames Co-Developing
Hello there fellow gamers.
It´s very cliché, but Ninja Gaidens Fans rejoice, WE ARE SO BACK!!
All I could think about before the Direct was "If is Ninja Gaiden, I´m gonna lose it."
And it was. Not only we´re getting a brand new NG game with Ninja Gaiden 4 but also Ninja Gaiden " Black...... TODAY!!!!
I´m kinda overwhelmed right now.
This was the BEST Xbox Developer_Direct. I´m Beyond Happy!
This year is going to be insane for gaming all around.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all
Re: Black Myth: Wukong Success Granted Phantom Blade Zero Dev Extra Funding, It's Claimed
Hello there fellow gamers.
This is actualy some really good news, especially after all the unfortunate layoffs that´s been plaguing this industry.
And since I am a huge fan of this type of games, is very nice to see them florish once again.
Kudos for all the great talent were seeing, not only from Chinese developers but also from Korea as well.
I do believe were going to see way more awesome games from all over Asia, bringing their style and flavor to the gaming scene, more so on console and PC.
Keep them coming, that what I say.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone

Hello there fellow gamers.
I am one of those PS users that also have an Xbox, so this is perfect for me.

No, not really. At all. Thats why I got the 8BitDo Pro 2 Wired Controller, with Hall Effect joysticks. Just so I could play my fighting games properly...... And some other games on my PC.
It´s a pretty good controller, but this one looks even better.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 560
Hello there friends
@Zuljaras buddy, you are in for a treat. Witcher 3 is one of the best rpgs ever made and it has the best expassions ever made also. It´s my oppinion, but trust me it´s that good.
@PuppetMaster (great name by the way) Guacamelee! Super Turbo Champhionship Edition is so good. The second game is even better. Loved the humour as well.
And Ikaruga...... First played it on Dreamcast and then on GameCube. And yes, t´s quite difficult at first. But there is actually a tell, or a pattern to it. Challenging but a lot of fun.
@playstation1995 my man what´s good? Mafia: Definitive Edition is a really good remake of a great game.
Can´t wait for Mafia The Old Country. That trailer looked great.
And Family Matters is an old tv classic. One of the bests.
Cheers guys, have a good one and word up son 👍
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 560
Hello there fellow gamers.
This weekend will probably finish Hellblade 2 and continue my Metaphor Refantazio journey on my Series X.
On my PS5, I´m currently playing Black Myth Wukong and Street Fighter 6 online...... And maybe will play more Clive in Tekken 8.

Re: Poll: What Are Your Gaming Plans for the Holidays?
Hello there fellow gamers.
Yes, I've got some time off work and I do plan on both playing something new and dive into my backlog.
Just started Black Myth Wukong(my birthday present) and will also try and finish Metaphor Refantazio, Cyberpunk 2077 and Star Wars Outlaws. Might also dable into Astrobot Lost levels.
Hope everybody as a Happy Gaming Chistmas with your loved ones. Cheers
Re: Even in a Wacky Nautical Spin-Off, Yakuza Just Feels Wrong in English
Hello there fellow gamers.
Yeah, no. Yakuza/like a Dragon games always in their original Japanese voices thank you very much.
In that regard, I´m like my friend @Dalamar, I try to play most games in their original language.
Just like I´m doing with Black Myth Wukong, playing in Chinese.
It just feels more authentic that way..... To me at least.
Plus, Hidenari Ugaki is Majima. He is just perfect for the role.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Re: Archetype's Sci-fi Epic Exodus Looks Sick in PS5 Gameplay
Hello there fellow gamers.
This game is, without a doubt, my most anticipated game of whatever year it comes out....... Besides the new Mass Effect.
I´m so in for this project from Archetype Entertainment.
They seem very passionate about it and can´t wait to see more.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone

Of course, there are more games that I´m interested in, but this is a big enough list.
I´m starting to think that I am just collecting these games. There is just not enough time to play them all.
I´m tryin, but it´s quite difficult.
All in all, 2025 will be another amazing year for PS5.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone

Hello there fellow gamers;
Even though my vote went to Onimusha Way of the Sword, because about fricking time, there are many others announcements that really resonated with me, such as:
Some of the best announcements I´ve seen in a long time.
And the backlog keeps on growing, huh? It is what it is 😜

Re: Naughty Dog's New PS5 Game Is Finally Announced, Sci-Fi Action Title Intergalactic
Hello there fellow gamers.
A brand new game from the GOATs Naughty Dog Studio?
And it´s Sci-Fi? And Akira and Cowboy Bebop inspired?
That is a DAY ONE purchase for me for sure.
Loved the vibe and aesthetic of the trailer.
And the soundtrack by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross is going to be amazing.
Did I say this is a day one purchase? Because it is.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Re: Okami Sequel Announced by Capcom
Hello there fellow gamers;
Okay, listen...... Bringing back Onimusha was something I´ve been wanting for years and Capcom is doing that.
But OKAMI????? For real???
And Kamiya-san is the director??
This is beyond amazing.
I´m starting to think that DINO Crisis and Breath of Fire MIGHT actualy have a chance of coming back.....
My friends @Fizza @Zeldorf @WanderingBullet @Ichiban, we are living in the right timeline and it´s absolutely glorious!
Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Re: Onimusha: Way of the Sword Brings Capcom's Iconic Action Series Back on PS5
Hello there fellow gamers;
This was definitely a BIG anouncement.
As a HUGE Onimusha fan who´s been waiting years for a new entry, I´m beyond happy it´s finaly happening.
And like my friend @Fizza is saying, is Capcom becoming the CAPGOD of old?
It sure feels like it and we are here to enjoy it.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Re: Like a Dragon Dev RGG Studio Announces Brand New Game Set in 1915 Japan
Hello there fellow gamers;
One of the highlist of the show for sure.
RGG Studio is cooking hard.
They are working on both this and the VF project and we´ll be getting Yakuza in Hawai next year.....
I´m so in for this.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Re: Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Has a Smorgasbord of Silly Side Activities
Hello there fellow gamers;
For an Yakuza game, it´s just normal stuff 😂
But the fact that it´s Majima doing all that is just glorious.
Ever since I played Yakuza 0, Goro Majima is the character that as made the most impression on me.
His introduction in that game is AMAZING.
This game is gonna be crazy bonkers and I´m here for it.
Another great game to be excited for 2025.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Re: Physical Media Just Can't Catch a Break Right Now
Hello there fellow gamers.
I´m an old fashioned man, so going to a store to purchase games is very natural to me.
I also love to actualy OWN my games or any other media, including books, movies and albums.
As an example, on November 15, I went as soon as I could, I went to my local shopping center to purchase the new Linkin Park album. I was the very first person to get it there.
Now, I could´ve got it and listened to it at midnight, but for me, nothing beats opening the album, putting the CD on, grabing the book with the lyrics and just enjoy the music being played.
I do exactely the same thing with videogames and movies.
I´m so worried about this, that I am making sure I try to get as many games that I want to have and play, as much as possible.
And being able to pre-order, making them cheaper and using deals like pay two and get three with the pre-order is just the icing on the cake for me.
There is also the fact that some games you can wait for a few months and get them cheaper or on a sale and with physical games you can let a friend borrow them as well.
Have done that quite a few times.
Do I also buy digital? Yes, when ever there is a really good sale.
But if I can, I´ll pay a bit more to have the case with the disc.
Some times, I´ll even doble dip and get some games on multiple platforms. Those being PS5 and Series X.
But that´s just me though, I´m weird like that 😜
Hopefully, physical media will never stop being a thing.
But if it does, well, then I´ll still have my collection to enjoy.
Cheers and happy gaming

Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 558
@Zuljaras Hi there friend.
You´ve got some bangers to play, as always.
Don´t know if it is the very first time you´re playing RE4, but Capcom did an amazing job with the Remake.
Still one of the BEST games ever made in my opinion.
I´ve been tempted to replay SOTN for the 7th time.... Or any other Castlevania for that matter. But there are to many games to play and the backlog keeps on growing 😜
Cheers and have a good one
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 558
Hello there fellow gamers;
On this weekend I´ll continue playing the following games:
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 557
Hello there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´ll probably go back to the amazing Cyberpunk 2077 and finaly play The Phamtom Liberty dlc.
Will also go back to play the also amazing Metaphor Refantazio. One of the best RPGs out there.
I do tend to stop playing games when I get closer to the end. Weird, right?
And will probably play some Street Fighter 6 online.
There are so many games in my backlog, that I don´t even know what to do sometimes. Oh well, not a bad problem to have 😜
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Re: Black Myth: Wukong Physical Version Now Official, PS5 Disc Included
Hello there fellow gamers.
Great news for any gamer like myself that enjoys owning their games in physical form.
Will be getting this as soon as possible.
Thanks for the good news @LiamCroft.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 551
Hello there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´m all about Metaphor ReFantazio on my Series X and Street Fighter 6 on my PS5. Been having a lot of fun online matches with some pretty good players in SF6.
Also, it has been awhile since I´ve been so enamored with a turn based rpg like Metaphor and I do think this will be my game for the next months.
Although, I do want to finish at least one playtrough of both Sillent Hill 2 and Alan Wake 2 as well.
So many good games to play. Gamers are eating good.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Re: Talking Point: What Was Your Favourite PS5 Game from State of Play September 2024?
Hello there fellow gamers;
For me, my favourite anounced games were:
And I agree with @colonelkilgore, Hell is Us looks super interesting and it may very well be a hidden gem.
That game is right up my alley. Can´t wait to see more of it.
Looking forward to all of these games.
There´s just not enough time during the day to play them all 😜
Not a bad State of Play in my book.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming to us all
Re: Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Might Be the Series' Most Insane Game Yet, Sailing to PS5, PS4 in February
Hello there fellow gamers.
I don´t actually know what to say but...... An Yakuza Action Pirate Game starring Majima Goro? Yes please and thank you.
This Franchise is nuts and I love it.
Just When I Thought I Was Out, They Pull Me Back In!
Cheers everyone and happy pirate gaming
Re: Astro Bot Director Surprised By Level of Support from Fellow PlayStation Studio Heads
Hello there fellow gamers.
This was the GAME every PS5 user needed for a long time.
A game that is just fun, joyful and a bit chalenging when it needs be. You can feel the passion the team had making this game, with all the references and since I´ve only done the first two worlds, (I was smiling the entire time in the God of War level) I´m very curious with other franchises I´ll see.
It´s a fun and colorful game that also celebrates Playstation.
What´s there not to love?
Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Re: 25 Years Ago, Square Released the Best Final Fantasy Game
Hello there fellow gamers.
Interesting topic. Although I do consider FFVIII one of the best, It´s not necessarily the best Final Fantasy game ever made, mostly because there are many different FF games out there.
I am one of the weirdos that does very much like FFVIII, FFXIII, FFXVI, FFIV and FFVI, wich is still my personal favourite FF game to be the very best of the bunch.
I also really like FFVII Rebirth and can´t wait for FFVII Revengence(that´s what I´m callin it) to finish the story.
But you can´t deny how important FFVIII was, with the beautiful and amazing opening movie, the whole Laguna storyline and, of course, Triple Triad mini-game that made many other mini-games in many other RPGs to become a thing.
So happy Birthday to one of the best FF games and make a Remake of it SquareEnix.... And FFVI. Pretty please? Maybe 😜
Cheers everyone and happy RPG gaming to us all
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 545
Hello there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´ll be playing Astro Bot, wich is the best game ever, more Street Fighter 6 online matches, learned some new Ryu combos gotta do them in a match and continue Kay Vess Star Wars Outlaws journey all on my PS5.
I´m putting my Series X on rest until I get my physical copies of Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Edition, Metaphor: Refantazio and Assassins Creed Sahdows...... Or until I decide to play Control or Lies of P again 😜
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Re: Star Wars Outlaws Director a 'Little Disappointed' with Critical Reception
@Loamy Hello there friend.
Yeah, Gaming has always been both a hobby and a passion of mine, so I clearly have enthusiasm and positivity about the Gaming Universe. Also agree with your point, we are indeed spoilt for choice these days in terms of great games out there, and yet, some people find something to complaint about instead of enjoying the things they actualy do enjoy. Go figure.
Oh well, Cheers and have a good one
Re: Star Wars Outlaws Director a 'Little Disappointed' with Critical Reception
Hello there fellow gamers;
I have to agree with @Vivisapprentice @ApostateMage @Hyena_socks @Loamy and @Westernwolf4 , I am also really enjoying the game.
It is a Star Wars game that feels like Star Wars, it has the vibe, the ambiance, the style and many references to the source material, has it should any adaptation have.
I do think the highlights for me are the actual Space exploration and Space combat as well as the different factions that may get in favour with some and not so good with others.
Does it have it´s flaws? Oh yes, it does have indeed.
Gunplay could be a litle better as well as the games stealth.
But overall, it´s a pretty good game and more importantly, I´m having a lot of fun with it. Isn´t that what matters the most?
Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 544
@frankmcma Hello there friend.
So, the stealth missions can be a little anoying, because you don´t get many checkpoints and you can also loose points of a specific faction, wich might not be ideal.
Fortunately, they are not that difficult, once you know what to do and were to go.
And since the game has many upgrades and abilities to unlock, it also makes those missions easier to do.
But the game is quite fun and engaging. At least so far.
Cheers and have a good one
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 544
Hello there fellow gamers;
This weekend I´ll be playing Star Wars Outlaws and Street Fighter 6 on my PS5 and replaying Control and Lies of P on my Series X.
I´m really enjoying SW Outlaws, there is a lot to like and enjoy, plus it is a Star Wars game that looks and feels like Star Wars.
Don´t understand the negativity surronding this game and others for that matter.
People should just enjoy playing what they like. That´s what I do. Play games and enjoy them.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Re: Preview: Crimson Desert Is Real, Complex, and Potentially Great
@playstation1995
What´s good my man! Yes indeed, both Phantom Blade Zero.and Lost Soul Aside are also in my radar.
As soon as a release date is confirmed, I´ll be getting them day one for sure.
Black myth Wukong is another I´m very interested in, once there is a physical copy of the game on PS5.
Asia is becoming BIG in the gaming market. It´s great to see more devs making creative games on console.
Cheers friend and Word Up Son
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 543
Hello there fellow gamers;
Having finishing AC Mirage, a really good stealth game and finally finished the amazing Lies of P, I´m now currently thinking of playing Alone in the Dark and maybe, probably play Control for a third time on my Series X. I just love that game, it´s so fun.
Although I do want to replay Lies of P for all the achievements.... And because the game is that good.
Will also dable in Rise of the Ronin and some Street Fighter 6 matches on my PS5.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 543
First of all, my condolences @Kraven. The feeling of loosing a loved one, special a parent(wich was my case, when I lost my Father when was 16) can be sometimes to much and no one knows how to feel or act.
Gaming can be a very good medium to get lost in and think of nothing else. I still do that when life goes the wrong way.
Even more if the game has characters and a story that resonates with you, especially in those moments.
My sympathies friend and keep pushing.
Re: Preview: Crimson Desert Is Real, Complex, and Potentially Great
Hello there fellow gamers.
Crimson Desert has become one of my most anticipated and most wanted games, just like Judas, Death Stranding 2 and GTA6.
It still looks very ambitious, but if the devs can pull this of, then I acompletely agrre with my friend @playstation1995 and say that action adventure RPG fans will be very pleased.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Re: PS5 Open World Crimson Desert Unleashes Even More Gameplay, Big Boss Battles Look Crazy
Hello there fellow gamers.
This game look absolutely incredible.
The visual quality, the particles, the animations, the combat and the Bosses.
I need this game NOW..... Or when ever the game is ready for release.
Keep on cooking Pearl Abyss. We need more games like Crimson Desert.
And yes, I completely agree with @QiaraIris, Korean and Chinese devs are on fire as of now and I do believe more awesome games will come from them.
It´s great to see more devs from other countries making more ambitious console games. Keep being creative.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming

Re: Capcom Wants All of Its Legacy Fighting Games to Be Re-Released on PS5, PS4
Hello there fellow gamers;
As much as i like and enjoy CVS series, I´m gonna follow our friend @get2sammyb and say RIVAL SCHOOLS!!!! All the way!
That is still one of the Bests new Original Capcom fighting game series they made way back in the day.
Still remember getting the first game on my PS1 for my birthday and playing both game discs. So much fun.
And the sequel on Sega Dreamcast was great as well.
Make it happen Capcom, I´ll buy it day one.
Here is still one of the best intros of a game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yd3bsH3u1rc. Enjoy.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 537
Hello there fellow gamers.
Having finished the amazing Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC on my PS5, now I´m back at playing Assassins Creed Odissey on my Series X.
I´m pretty late to the party with AC Odissey and I don´t see why the game got so much flak. It is pretty great in my opinion.
I´ve been pleasently surprised by the narrative and beautiful Greek landscapes. It is a BIG game, that´s for sure.
Cheers and happy gaming weekend to us all
Re: Ubisoft Apologises for Using Re-Enactment Group's Flag in Assassin's Creed Shadows Art
Hello there fellow gamers.
I never saw or heard people complain when Team Ninjas Ni-Oh had Yasuke as a Main Boss character called the Obsidian Samurai, nor the fact that the main protagonist of that game was William Adams , a caucasian british silver haired fellow.
There is also the point that Naoe, the other AC Shadows Protagonist is a Japanese Shinobi and not many people mentioned this. The game does have a Japanese MC.
The fact that both Team Ninja and Ubisoft decided to "make" Yasuke a Samurai probably has to do with the word itself and what it means.
The word Samurai comes from the Japanese verb saburau, which means "to serve and look up to someone."
Yasuke, a former slave in a foreign land both served and look up to Oda Nobunaga, so it makes sense that Yasuke "become" a Samurai to protect, serve and honor is master..... Maybe even by choice this time around.
Just my two cents on the matter.
Myself, has a huge Samurai and Ninja fan, as well as fan of this types of games, I am very much excited to play AC Shadows.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 534
Hello there fellow gamers.
This weekend is all about Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree.
It´s all I can think about right now, playing this gem of a game.
And Nothing Else Matters....... Until I´m done with it.
Then, I´ll probably go back to AC Odissey and Rise of the Ronin.
Cheers everyone and happy gaming weekend to us all
Re: The Witcher Congratulates Elden Ring's DLC Triumph with Awesome Artwork
Hello there fellow gamers.
I love when videogame developers do this kind of thing.
Almost like a crossover art style between two different games.
Kudos for CD Projekt Red acknowledging this immense feat.
And yes, just like @DennisReynolds and @TheArt I also took a srceenshot of the very begining of the Realm of Shadow in Elden Ring. It was a, "Man, this looks so good" moment.
Been enjoying myself exploring the intial area and the first Legacy Dungeon and its Boss. It was a very difficult fight.
Having an absolute Blast with this DLC.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Re: Talking Point: What PS5 Game Had the Best Showing Across All the Summer Gaming Events?
Hello there fellow gamers.
So I´m picking only three games, then they would be:
Other honorable mentions:
Lot´s of great games all around. And there´s even more games on Xbox to be excited about. In my case, at least.
2024 is already a pretty stacked year and 2025 looks to be no different. Now, if only I could have enough time to finish my backlog...... Oh well.
Cheers and happy gaming everyone
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 532
And Kudos to you @Zuljaras. You always have some great and diverse games to play.
Hollow Knight is one of the best MetroidVanias out there, Orange Box is one of the best compilation of games as well, Minish Cap is a pretty good Zelda game and BG3 is such a behemoth of a game that I haven´t dare started yet.
But everything I´ve heard about it, is simply amazing.... And Big.
Cheers and have a good one
