Just here to say Hot Wheels is bloody fantastic. Loving it so far.

Nothing for me this month, but I’m going to be busy enough playing Jett and Project Zero so not too worried.

@Grimwood I think you'd notice the difference more of you went back and played the original again. This is a big improvement. It's still the original engine at its core so it's never going to look "next gen" but I'd say this is looking great and easily on a par with other remasters we've seen recently.

Nothing for me here sadly, pass.

Not convinced by GT7 yet, going to hang on and check out the hands-on videos before I make a decision.

£5 is a no brainer for me. Hadn't even installed the PS4 version but glad I kept hold of it now as I'll definitely be giving this a go.

I've still got a copy of this kicking around that I never got around to playing on PS4 so I'll be upgrading for sure. Looking forward to trying it out!

Seems a lot more promising than the Avengers game ever did already, so feeling nicely optimistic!

I'd love a Silver Surfer game - flying from planet to planet with Galactus as the big bad, with the whole cosmic Marvel rogue's gallery along the way. The board would be amazing fun to use for traversal and the powers would leave a lot of room for inventive progression and battle. Plus the Surfer himself could be an unbelievable ad for raytracing tech.

Sounds like a good game and about in line with what I was expecting. If I didn't have such a huge backlog I'd be picking it up sooner but as it stands this is probably one that will go on the wishlist to get further down the line. Hope it does well though!

Didn't really enjoy Dishonored so not particularly interested in Deathloop, personally. But then I'm not much of a shooter fan anyways tbh.

I'm not really the biggest Star Wars fan (love the original trilogy but the rest...not so much), but have to admit this has me intrigued. Really enjoyed Detroit so I'll be interested in whatever they do next, really.

Exciting stuff. Personally I'm expecting a slightly more linear game than Spider-Man, perhaps a bit more GoW-ish.

The last game was easily the best entry in the series and the single-shot approach was a crucial part of setting the tone and the pacing, so very happy to hear this. Not at all surprised, though.

Along with Fable 2 and the Mass Effect trilogy this was a defining experience for me on Xbox 360. Very excited to see it coming back!

I'll go digital once it's down to half price or less. In no rush and got plenty of other games to play.

Ha, had a feeling we'd hear something soon. Exciting! Don't really mind what's shown to be honest, just looking forward to some surprises.

I reckon we'll have a proper State of Play sooner rather than later, but I'd be very surprised if we saw much (if anything) of God of War before next year.

Not amazing overall but I was pleasantly surprised by ONL this year, definitely better than usual! If it improves from here on every year then it could become something really cool. Fingers crossed.

@LiamCroft I was referring more towards the article itself, personally it seems more than a bit pointless. It’s an ad in a trailer. But hey, didn’t intend to ruffle any feathers.

I'm super excited for Spider-Man, but I've gotta say this article is pretty shameless clickbait that I'm kinda surprised to see on here.

@PowderToastMan Was going to say something similar. The idea that a game is trash/garbage etc is almost always ridiculous hyperbole. I don't understand how people can live their lives being so perpetually disappointed and unhappy. Like, maybe find another hobby if you see so little value in it?

I was stood in line at a CEX a while back and the guy in front was ranting on to the staff about how Days Gone was a "garbage game" and he was astounded it was worth more than £1. Now Days Gone is 100%, unequivocally not my kind of game, but to dismiss it as worthless is insane. People need to get a grip.

I loved this on Switch and was really jealous of the 4K version on Xbox, so I’m gonna double dip. Charming little game.

@ZeroOverOne Nope, I'm right there with you. Honestly wouldn't surprise me if this was the biggest announcement of Gamescom.

@MakersMark Did I say all legacy titles? What's to stop a more modest, but carefully curated selection from across PlayStation's history? Lineups could change every sop often, or whatever. Like GamePass.

The art style and animation don't look anywhere near Dotemu's standards, so I wouldn't be too worried if I was them.

The trailer for this had me really hyped - if the story's good then I'm on board. Life is Strange with quirky dinosaur people? Sure, sign me up.

I'd definitely give this a go. Probably once, mind - as I'd no doubt be terrible at it.

The dream for me would be have PS Now with PS1, PS2, Vita and PSP games. Heck, if it had those I'd probably be subbed already even without being bundled into PS Plus.

@AdamNovice I understand the why, I just wish it wasn’t the case.

I know this whole saga is kinda funny and all, but honestly - I really wish the gaming press would stop giving it attention. Surely the time spent on this could be spent promoting a cool indie studio or two?

Fantastic news, really tempted to grab this but never played a Tales game before so this is exactly what I needed.

So it's PS Plus...Plus? Well, I dip in and out of Crunchyroll/Funimation subs every now and then so I'd be tempted, but I'd much rather see PS Now integrated, or some kind of game pass rival.

One of my favourite games in recent years, just wish I had more time to play it! Can't wait to see what they've got planned next. Frontiers suggests something something very exploration-focused, so who knows...

@kingbreww Not every game has to push a system's specs. That said, a shame that this doesn't look especially good, was interested but probably won't bother now.

Can't believe how much controversy there is about this. Ninja Theory are literally a MS dev now. Sigh.

Looks a lovely game, going on the wish list for sure! Great review.

@Nepp67 Ah, fair enough. Tempting but probably shows more support if I buy the digital version domestically rather than import. Looks like there’s a digital deluxe as well so I’ll probably go for that.

BTW, anyone know if it’s getting a physical release or just digital? Buying either way but want to preorder.

For more Project Zero I’ll buy as many copies as they need me to, easily one of my favourite series. Really, really hope this does well.

Amazing, better looking than the official colour ways!

Short, sweet and an utter joy. I already own two copies and the vinyl soundtrack but a 4K version is very tempting!

Can't remember the last time that Opening Night Live was worth watching, sadly. Hope this year will be different but I won't be holding my breath.

I'd love to play this but playtime is at a premium lately. Hopefully if I avoid the padding and turn the difficulty down I can get through it briskly enough.

Good grief there’s a lot of morons on the internet. Anyone calling this out as “BS” is nuts.

Whether the directors cut is justified as a paid upgrade or not is a completely separate issue.

Poor month for my tastes but hopefully others enjoy it a bit more. Won’t be claiming any of these.

@sanderson72 Art style over horsepower any day of the week.

@Kidfried ah fair enough, in terms of news then yes absolutely spot on, very rarely see anything big announced

@beebs720 Totally get where you’re coming from. Ryan is kinda hard to relate to, especially compared to Shu Yoshida or Mark Cerny. Didn’t like Phil Spencer at first but after a while it clicked and I really like him as an ambassador/leader/personality for Xbox now. Seems pretty genuine.

As for Sony being silent, again, not too surprised. They really seem to be taking from Nintendo’s playbook and want to focus on the games that make their platform unique, which means less is more. Reckon we’ll have something major between late summer and the 1 year anniversary, so Sept-Nov sometime.
