I've always thought about buying an Xbox to play these games so it's great news that it's coming to PS5! I actually own the original trilogy on 360 because the games were like 1 euro each, but never got the machine itself 😅

Absolutely fantastic price for Firewatch, definitely jump on that!

There are very few games that I would like that I'm unaware of I would say, I listen to too many podcasts! Feel like this is caught between a hardcore that don't need it and a casual market that knows what it likes and isn't looking for anything new

@get2sammyb ah totally understand, and glad you're open to feedback! It's a good idea for an article so hope it's successful for ye

I don't mind the multiple pages, get that ad revenue, but this new style of guide would be much more useful if it was just a straight list. It's a lot of scrolling to get the info and I'm not reading the little run down for most of the games

WOAH. That is crazy. Maybe I'll finally play a dragon age game like my friend keeps telling me too 😅

From the last report it sounded like it was in trouble and years away from release; no doubt due to meddling from executives with little to no understanding and just wanting dollar signs. Shadow of War had very bad word of mouth due to micro-transactions being shoe-horned in, I imagine similar interference was occurring

I would love a vita 2 🥲 PS4 back compatibility and select PS3 games would make it an absolute winner if they could get the ducks in a row for it

I have the 1st remaster waiting to be played at home, looking forward to buying and waiting for the right time to play this too 😅

Super strange this wasn't announced last night at the state of play...? Would have been a highlight of the show!!!

It struck me as way to early to announce this game if it was only coming out of incubation. We'll probably see it in 2027 tbf

@GilgaMax309 I'd love a new infamous game haha 😅

Okay let's go! What outlandish expectations do we all have for this? 😅

Should be an option in the poll for "No, I only play offline games". Didn't effect me at all, happily completed Plague Tale Requiem

Thought this was a strange announcement back in the day and I am unsurprised by this news

Will give High on Life a go but WHO KNOWS WHEN!

Unsurprising. I do wonder will this be any good, the gameplay demo they showed off seemed highly scripted like the E3 demos of old. I hope they make a great game but this Perfect Dark remake seems to have been on the struggle bus for years

Did they advertise this heavily? I don't recall seeing much about it. SM2 was, if we're being fair, pretty underwhelming so I'm not surprised that PC players haven't been super interested

I'd love to see Hellblade 2 come over! I really liked the 1st game though I've heard mixed things about the sequel. Would still love to play it with my Dualsense though!

@Titntin Fair point, I'm not reffering to the graphics quality or how well it runs, but the actual art design. It's a generic realism with no personality. A lot of tech allows us to make high quality assets and worlds but sadly there's not much actual artistic thought put into them beyond realism. A really scourge in game development at the minute I think

IS the art design or this game just really bland and uninteresting? Very washed out lighting too, looks like a modern Ubisoft game

FF 16 was in sale for 15 euro in most shops before Christmas; physical is still the way to go!

I'd say this is a pretty lackluster month, but I would like to play High on Life! A friend worked on the comic book so I'd finally like to dive in =]

I could have told them this the day they released the first trailer. You can't make a generic game with no personality and expect people to flock to it.

People in the comments complaining about "uhhh it's political uhhh" are being ridiculous. It's an active genocide where 45,000+ people have died and they copy and pasted from imagery from it to promote their product. It's ghoulish and disgusting, and if you don't get that reexamine your humanity.

I've been wanting to give Atlas Fallen a shot since it got that big update; will check it out at some point!

"God of War live service" of all the stupid ideas!
Jim Ryan did great launching the PS5 but clearly hadn't a clue what he was doing with the studios, and I'm deeply concerned about Herman's judgement too. What a waste of time from 2 great studios. We should be hearing and soon playing their latest single player games. This is so frustrating to hear, I am genuinely angry

@cburg no =]

@Stickleman I don't think it's value for money, hurts competition, streaming games is a disaster for the environment due to the burden of data farms, and I think Game Pass' business model hurts developers and game creativity. So, yes I do

I don't think Game Pass is a healthy business model for the industry and I've been glad that it's fallen short of it's goals every year. PS Plus is a great service for my needs as is, supplementing the games I buy and adding new revenue streams for companies. Game Pass is destructive and I'll be glad to see it fail if it does happen

@wildcat_kickz just listened to that episode of the podcast today 😅

"PlayStation enters an unprecedented new golden age"

This is a very vague prediction imo, hard to prove or disprove it within a year? We expect console sales to decline this year, so it just there will be some big games and influencers will buy Playstations? Maybe we'll know it when we see it but I would have liked something a little firmer to measure this by

Sign me up! I'll buy this no problem, always wanted to try Halo

I put it into rest of I'll be back relatively soon, like less than an hour. Otherwise it's off! It doesn't use too much energy but it all adds up, gotta keep them bills down

Nice, will finally play The Stanley Parable 🥳

Maybe for 2025 require more specific language in the predictions because some of these skated through on generosity alone! But sure it's all a bit of fun at the end of the day too I suppose 😘

Specifically Killzone 2, interesting!

I've yet to play Helldivers 2 but I'd nearly buy this DLC just to show support for Killzone 😅

@Boucho11 this is literally 15 seconds of my time; I was giving constructive feedback. You're just trying to have an argument 🤷‍♂️

@Boucho11 most people wouldn't typically click every link in an article, and I even double checked there and the link you're referring to doesn't mention the demo in the sentence.
Clear, informative writing is important and I found the article fell well short of what I expect from PushSquare

"aforementioned stress test" is the first mention in this article of a stress test as far as I can see??
Also you never mentioned there was a demo to try? I would try it if there was info in the article about it

Sign me right up!

So Playstation were developing 2 80's inspired, space faring games at the same time? Portfolio management over there is so strange
Looks interesting though! I imagine this will have souls-inspired elements to it's gameplay from that last snippet of the trailer. Not full on souls but just some inspirations.

Sounds good! I found it a bit slow for sure so maybe I'll give it another go

I've actually always wanted to check out It Takes Two with my partner; looks like there's no excuse now!

Ah now that is so blatant 😅

What a hero ❤️ He was the heart and the soul of PlayStation in the PS3 era for me and the brand hasn't been the same since his public role was sidelined.
Absolute gent and an incredible legacy, can't wait to see what he does next

Excellent news! That change was very disappointing so glad they've brought back the wallet rewards

Oh god more than anything!!

Yes, smaller, more interesting and creative games please.
But!!!! They need to be good, of course. For example, I was looking forward to Flintlock this year as it had potential. But in the end, it seems to be generic and trying nothing new. So I'll play it someday, but not right now.
Currently playing Lies of P, which is a lower budget title. Really enjoying it, and I've tried out a lot of indie titles this year that I've really enjoyed.
