Not gonna lie, I was caught off guard when SpongeBob was brought up. I get it's a very big show, but think about how strange it would be to see a cel-shaded SpongeBob holding a realistic looking AR.
A true grade-A idiot this guy is. Doesn't he have better things to do than fly to companies' headquarters to bother them about info that will be revealed eventually?
Why is Sony so gungho about live service when single player is what they're best at? This looks awesome! It reminds me of the 2009 game "X-Men Origins: Wolverine - Uncaged Edition," but with the Insomniac touch.
I think they're doing it to put it on Switch 2, since we only have Kiwami 1 on the original Switch, as well as an enhanced version of 0 for Switch 2. Kiwami 1 and 2 are coming to Switch 2 in November, and Atlus probably want to port them in chronological order.
Solid roster, though I am wondering who the last two heroes are. I too think this game will be pushed to 2026, which will make it the second game from them scheduled for that year, alongside Scott Pilgrim EX.
This is a collection I didn't expect. The selection is small but that's the result of licensing, I guess. However, the price tag, even for the standard version, is a bit stiff. I'd wait for a sale (on the digital version. You know this print run won't last).
The changes sound like a big mistake. You shouldn't take stuff away from a remake, you should make it better. And the RPG elements most likely won't fit well with the rest of the game.
@JohntheRaptor I heard BL4 toned down the comedy (so the game isn't throwing joke after joke that doesn't land), so that most likely won't be an issue. The guns and the gameplay loop is probably why the series stuck around for so long. That and they sell well.
Considering that the main game cost $60 on the American PS Store and the standalone add-on costs $30 there, this bundle is a steal if you haven't bought either yet.
Prohibitively Expensive? I doubt it, and even if it is expensive, good! These publishers are too rich and have too much money, so surely they can afford the solution to people complaining about their awful business practices.
@Liamsufc1 The petition is talking about games that you pay money for and that require Internet to play. They want the publishers to have a feasible end-of-life plan for games that are paid for upfront AND online only so that people can still technically play them if they want
Perfect Dark and Everwild could've been great, but alas, we'll never know. Xbox's management is a total disaster and needs to change. Though, judging from their profits, they likely won't.
He shouldn't have said the "real fan" nonsense to begin with, as while I've played the other games, that does NOT make me willing to spend $80 on a new one, or any other game for that matter.
This likely happened simply cause they worked with EA, who's been laying workers off left and right this year. Sucks, since that game sounded promising.
@RubyCarbuncle Sorry. Not trying to spread misinformation. I don't really play PC games. Still, I'd rather not do ANY online check-in if I paid full price for the game.
Even if Denuvo doesn't affect performance, it still forces you to be online at all times to play at all, which is likely not the case with the PS5 version.
@Blaze215 I definitely agree with this. If Assassin“s Creed Shadows was so successful, why haven't actual sales figures been published yet? Seems suspicious, if you ask me. Also, Ubisoft would be boasting these numbers to back up their claims of success.

Re: Write Full-Length Reviews for Your Favourite (or Least Favourite) PS5, PS4 Games on the PS Store
So it's more or less like the review system on Xbox, plus a spoiler branding system. Can't wait to see a ton of joke reviews lol.

Re: No Nudity and Less Gore in Censored Japanese Version of Dying Light: The Beast
@Absymbel Considering that the ESRB says that there's "partial nudity," "Blood & Gore," and "Intense Violence," there likely will be cuts.
Re: No Nudity and Less Gore in Censored Japanese Version of Dying Light: The Beast
I didn't know there even was nudity in the game. Censorship of it in video games in Japan is odd since they have graphic nudity in anime and manga.
Re: Yakuza Kiwami 3 Seemingly Leaked on Dev Website

Re: Arcade Racer Wreckreation Finally Has a PS5 Release Date, and It's Not Far Off
I wanna play this so bad! I love the Burnout series and have a feeling this might scratch that itch.
Re: 'The Largest Game Launch in History': Rockstar Hypes GTA 6, and Who's Going to Argue?
Mark my words, PSN and Microsoft Store WILL crash once pre-orders go live with the amount of people placing orders.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Borderlands 4?
I want to get the game eventually, if there's a sale and I have something to play it on.

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Adds 'Cheats' on Switch 2, Xbox, But No Mention of PS5
Those cheats are a nope for me. I typically play every game on the normal difficulty, if possible.
Re: RoboCop Collection Bundles Rogue City and Unfinished Business, Out Next Month on PS5
Considering that the main game cost $60 on the American PS Store and the standalone add-on costs $30 there, this bundle is a steal if you haven't bought either yet.
Re: Enjoy the New Resident Evil Requiem Trailer with Improved PS5 Graphics
Well of course the PS5 version is gonna look better. It's running on beefier hardware. Although, the Switch 2 is no slouch either.

Certainly a welcome surprise from Nightdive Studios.
Re: Wreckreation Does Its Very Best Burnout Impression in PS5, PS4 Trailer
Not to mention, STILL no release date or at least a release window?! I sense something is up here. This game was announced back in 2022 by the way.
Re: FromSoftware Delays Its Elden Ring Nightreign Updates Due to Tsunami Alerts
I really hope those in the areas affected survive because that is a powerful earthquake and I'm sure those people are terrified.

Re: Stolen PS1 WipEout Games Axed from the Xbox Store
@RZ-Atom These large companies rarely ever give us games we want and abandon franchises that they don't think will turn a profit
Re: Stolen PS1 WipEout Games Axed from the Xbox Store
@RZ-Atom Typical AAA.
Re: Stolen PS1 WipEout Games Axed from the Xbox Store
How could they think this would go unnoticed? Why won't Sony do anything with the franchise?
Re: Industry Body Representing Publishers Like PlayStation Says Stop Killing Games' Proposals Would Be 'Prohibitively Expensive'
Also, most AAA games are prohibitively expensive for the average person, so who are these people to complain about cost?
Re: Industry Body Representing Publishers Like PlayStation Says Stop Killing Games' Proposals Would Be 'Prohibitively Expensive'
Prohibitively Expensive? I doubt it, and even if it is expensive, good! These publishers are too rich and have too much money, so surely they can afford the solution to people complaining about their awful business practices.

Re: What the Hell Has Happened to Call of Duty?
I genuinely laughed out loud when I saw the image. It looks so bizarre and out of place, like a mod.
Re: Brazilian Gamers Infuriated by Sudden PS5 Price Hikes
The fact people would EVER defend this is asinine. From what I know, Brazil doesn't exactly have the strongest economy.

Re: Borderlands 4 Boss Writes Grovelling Apology for Implying 'Real Fans' Will Pay $80 for PS5 Game

Re: EA's Black Panther Game Cancelled, Studio Shut Down
@species People like that are objectively harder to work with. I know this from reading their awful posts on Twitter.

This likely happened simply cause they worked with EA, who's been laying workers off left and right this year. Sucks, since that game sounded promising.
Re: MindsEye CEO Says People Are Being Paid to 'Trash the Game' Online
Also, we have some people who are seemingly professionals acting like anything but. Let that sink in.
Re: MindsEye CEO Says People Are Being Paid to 'Trash the Game' Online
Um...Most of those criticisms (in the post) sound pretty valid. And being PAID to trash a game? Get out of here with that BS.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077's Highly Anticipated Sequel Has Entered Pre-Production
They need to actually finish it before releasing it this time, or it will end up like the original at launch.

Re: Stellar Blade PC Is Not Available in 129 Countries, And Dev Shift Up Didn't Seem to Know

Re: Ubisoft Game Riders Republic Will Be Made into a Movie, for Some Reason
Really don't think this will translate well to film, as the gameplay is where the game was at its best.
