@UltimateOtaku91 COVID started in 2020 (in the Netherlands). Games like GT7 and GOW were released in 2022. With Sony taking so long to develop any game the plan to release these games on PS4 was surely made before COVID hit. But we agree to disagree right?
@Neverwild @UltimateOtaku91 Microsoft is very upfront about it. You can expect that everything is pc.
We believe in generations was also said by Jim Ryan. Than he did a reverse and almost all PS5 exclusives were also on PS4 (and now most PS5 exclusives are on PC 😅).
@Jacko11 The reason we are crying is because Playstation isn’t currently really investing in new PS5 exclusives. Every announcement except Spider-Man is also PC. In addition, we all believed the marketing from super SSD speed not being possible any where else (the rifts). I think the outrage from a part of the PS community including me is that the showcase was a total disappointment (leadership is also really out of touch)
Edit: for me also the lack of communication regarding PSVR2 games is really hurting the image of Sony/PlayStation. The dislike I have for current leadership is also pushing me to the other side for next generation (team Green for all third party, the exclusives for next PS and ofcourse Team N for their exclusives… but primary console for third party will definitely be team green)
@OrtadragoonX Never played Starcraft to be honest. The game always seem to be a lot of micro management while command and conquer seem to be more accessible (I know heresy 😓)
Hmm makes sense…. Never played something from Bungie as every game after halo was Destiny right? Always felt like a game you can only play while neglecting the remainder of your game collection. Same reason why I never played fortnite or Apex Legends.
I do however played all naughty dog games… maybe Sony is not interested in people like me as I’m no person who purchases additional skins etc.
@Intr1n5ic @NEStalgia Leave NEStalgia alone. We need people like him who criticise Sony. Let’s face it Sony from the PS3/PS4 era is gone. Jim Ryan and Hermen only care about that sweet GAAS money. This is illustrated by Jim’s passion to block the takeover of AB. He only cares about the royalties they receive thanks to Call of duty Battle Royale (sorry I don’t know what the battle royale name is..).
Pfff I don’t know how I feel about this. I really liked the Last of Us Part 2. I also liked the idea of factions but with story elements. Shame that Sony is listening to Bungie…. The moment I saw every couple of months a new expansion was the moment I decided to never purchase/play any destiny as it’s a timesink.
Off topic: I miss the days when expansions were like new games. I remember Command and Conquer tiberian sun :firestorm very fondly… Shame Westwood died for the same reasons a lot of first party studio’s died… one mistake (Evolution studios, Zipper)
Winner: 1. Final fantasy as the release date is near my birthday. 2. Spider-Man 2: I loved the first one and MM expansion. Really digging that Peter is influenced by the symbiote!
Loser:
PSVR2 although I’m really exited for Arizona,RE 4 remake and beat saber (will buy it as my wife loves rhytm games).
PlayStation studios: how does it feel that Imsomniac is literally PlayStations Atlas. The other studio’s should have a good look at insomniac (Spider-Man remastered, Spider-Man miles morales, ratchet and clank a rift apart and now Spider-Man 2)
@TheCollector316 Maybe Sony needed to wait before revealing this super bland CGI trailer which felt like a Ubisoft GAAS games (only game that has succeeded is Rainbow six siege for Ubisoft)
@AdamNovice Nothing wrong with a good multiplayer game but this and the stealing from the riches game just seem to early to show (and feels a lot like Ubisoft). Additionally, how difficult is it to ask the PS community what type of multiplayer they want (I’m really into Killzone, Battlefield Bad company, Socom)
How difficult is to create a live service game that interest Sony games: 1. Warhawk remake 2. killzone remake or just like apex legends (which is derived from Titanfall) 3. Call of duty/ battlefield competitor—> killzone/ socom
Off topic: feels like Sony is trying multiple GAAS games to see what sticks and be the next fortnite…. Good luck with that as people only have x amount of time to invest.. really miss the ps2/3 era😓
This game is DOA. How did Jade sell this game as something innovating is beyond me. The presentation to Jim and Hermen must be something in the line of:
Gaas
Rainbow six siege copy
Edgy gen Z stealing from the rich because f*** capitalism
@UltimateOtaku91 When redfall is not looking that bad than Sony has a problem … Also look at the content Nintendo has just pushed out (Zelda is massive)
For me Microsoft can have Activision Blizzard. I invested a lot in the PS5 and just two weeks in PSVR2 but it seems Sony only has either third party or GAAS games (except Spider-Man). Shame really… also got really irritated that they showed the GT movie..
@KaijuKaiser We waited two years for a lot of third party. Next time just push out a state of play instead of an event of which expectations due to Sony’s silence where sky high.
@JSnow2 My gut already said onoo when it started with that Haven game which seems a carbon copy of rainbow six siege… ooh and I forget the square enix splatoon copy 🤮
Voted terrible. After two years of waiting this ugly Gordon Ramsey gave us a lot of third party and almost no first party and VR2 love. I just purchased a PSVR2 and hoped to see Astro or something.
Things I’m excited about are:
Helldivers 2
Final fantasy 16 (launching near my bday)
RE remake VR mode (but was it full VR or not?)
Spider-Man (other first party companies should be ashamed of themselves how much insomnia kicks their ass)
Arizona sunshine (but again where is Astro?)
@Vacuumator I don’t know but I must say Horizon is much more noisey than GT 7 and RE: village which makes me more dissy. Overall I think more crisp visuals do help against getting dissy.
@Green-Bandit Great comment! Really dig that you only care about games (instead of for example bragging rights: MS has AB…). Currently also playing LoU part 2 and I agree bring multiplayer 🙂
@FenIsMightier Please try VR then! It’s really something new. Take GT7 for example: it’s a good race game (some say the best) but VR elevates it to new levels.
One of my favourite open worlds of previous generation. I like it that the map was not that busy with things to do (question marks everywhere in some games). Same reason why I am currently replaying Zelda BOTW (third time it clicked for me)
@Heavy_Artilery Like having a boring main character. I’m still hoping someone can give me a better open world than Witcher 3 ( yeah I know Zelda ais great but has not such good quests and worldbuilding)
EDIT: To be clear I do not agree with gamers harassing someone because of their narrow worldview and values
@middyone Seems to me your to much invested in Horizon looking at your comment history.
Witcher 3 quests trump Horizon by a mile (gameplay of Horizon trumps Witcher) Geralt is also a much better written character (also the romances with Triss and Jeniffer).
PSVR2: GT7, Horizon CoM and RE: Village. It’s really an eye opener.
EDIT: GT7 is amazing in VR. it’s like I’m racing in the supercars themself. Also almost no woozy feeling.
Think I will restart Zelda BOTW as I never got finished it ( was under levelled or did not have any good gear). As some lizards with shock/lighting weapons killed me like 20 times resulting in me rage quiting
1. thanks will follow up your advice 2. Glad to hear that! Was not really that sick but felt woozy 3. It’s super awesome. Is pistol whip also on PSVR2? Do you know if the saints and sinners games are good?
I just received my PSVR2 but after playing resident evil village I’m a little bit nauseous. Do any of you guys have tips on the following: 1. Image is sometimes blurry. I adjusted it multiple times through recalibration but sometimes it’s still a little bit blurry (especially RE: village) 2. How to get over this feeling. Does it get better? Or have I just spent 600 euro on a vomit machine (mind you this is my first time VR). 3. Is it me or does VR feel more like a workout than expected? Horizon feels like I’m literally climbing mountains (in an exhausting way haha).
@thefourfoldroot1 @ROTTIEMAN16 Thanks guys, I think I will start with RE:village (already have it), GT 7 (also have it) and Horizon CotM (in the future pavlov and SS 1/2).
PS5: Witcher 3: hearts of stone. I don’t want to finish the main story line so I will buy the other expansion. PS5: The last of us part 2. Maybe it’s controversial but I really like this game. I know Joel and Ellie’s story was fantastic but the gameplay of part 2 is so much better.
Upcoming; next month I finally have enough funds to buy PSVR2 . Any recommendations?

@Ralizah This comment is exactly what I mean. Hopefully a lot of potential PS customers are going the pc route.

Re: Sony's PS Showcase Was One of Its Most Viewed Ever
Well, for me it’s the last time I will be watching live.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 478
PS5/PSVR2: GT7 maybe. Depends how I feel have been sick for the whole week.
Switch: Zelda BOTW. I think I will play this as it’s much more relaxing than VR.
Also note to self to not forget to buy beat saber.

4. God of War Ragnarök
5. Syberia The World Before
(not counting TLoU) would be my list.
