Yep, she was completely correct. It was obviously always going to go this way. What really annoys me is there will be no contrition or apologies from certain people in the gaming media (not push square!! ♥️) who pushed Game Pass uncritically.
The design on that tshirt does not read at all. Terrible, terrible piece of art. I have a ghost t-shirt and the platinum trophy, I certainly will not be buying this
"On sale for once" I think that's unfair, they only had the Days of Play sale before summer with a generous discount. I got my PS5 much cheaper back on a Black Friday 3 years ago.
Just caught up on the direct and... UFFF. This has all the excesses of AAA and all the shortcomings. Too much talking, boring sequences to justify their budget, and no emphasis on FUN. This seems misguided to me
Hey @get2sammyb , was this a hands on demo or a developer walkthrough? I can't tell from the article and you don't mention. From the way you've written it, it sounds like a developer walkthrough but I can't be sure.
It would be a shame if one of the big 3 has to be the villain; the way I interpreted Levine's vision would be that it would be much more fluid. The narrative Lego idea he talked about. Hmmmm
I got excited a si thought it was Child of Light. A perfect game; short experience that respects your time with great art direction and sense of place. Grow Home was fun though!
Would like to play this; I have pre-loved 2 euro copies of all the 360 games with the intention of buying an Xbox one day. Never happened! Will wait for a big discount to play this; I waited this long, I can wait a little more
Sorry this game was incredibly generic and didn't have a anything visually distinct. Sure it has the weapon crafting hook but as someone who doesn't care for crafting in games, there's nothing here for me beyond something to eat my time; I have plenty of those sorts of games!!
Perfect, less is more! GoT was such a perfect length to Platinum, so enjoyable to ride around and finish things.
Horizon Zero Dawn was too long for me personally, to the point I still haven't worked up an appetite for the sequel even though I'd love to play it at some stage
His voice acting is the weakest in the game by far so it's not totally surprising 😅 although the sound mixing in the game was implemented quite poorly which I think added to it . I like Charlie, sees like a good dude
I like this series, especially the game play, but the last game's narrative and dialogue was a huge issue for me. Loved the open zone levels though so hope they continue with that!
That was a great state of playing; I was interested in most games they showed and I think it had a great pace. Sword of the Sea getting a release date and coming to Plus was a real highlight. Lots to look forward to!
"This is the home of infinite entertainment" and it's the most dreariest, boring looking gameplay I have ever seen.
Rest of the game seems interesting -ish. I love the PS£ and a focused game sounds good, but the gun play just seems so one note. Very intrigued to see the reviews

Re: Preview: Why 007 First Light Is the Most Exciting Game of 2026
Hey @get2sammyb , was this a hands on demo or a developer walkthrough? I can't tell from the article and you don't mention.
From the way you've written it, it sounds like a developer walkthrough but I can't be sure.
Re: State of Play Confirmed for 3rd September, Deep Dive on 007 First Light
I have very little interest in this game based on what they showed previously, intrigued to see what this game turns out like though.

Re: PS5 Stunner Neo Berlin 2087 Walks the Uncanny Valley with New Gameplay Trailer
I have a feeling this might be yet another Unreal Engine 5 game with big production value and very little originality in the gameplay.
Interested to see what comes of this; hopefully not another Unknown 9 or Mindseye
