Such high hopes here.

OK, but this is looked only one-sided. If sony ports some titels to Xbox those will go sky-high too. Why? Well the people from one of the ecosystems suddnely get good games while waiting for the new releases. Not sure where the news here is to be honest.
What would have happened if MS was the winning party in terns of consoles and Sony ported God of war, uncharted, Horizon, Ghost of tsushima , etc? Same thing.

@Flaming_Kaiser you are correct as well. My critic here is towards the state of the games on release day. We all suffer from that

Well, the article points to a good thing but in general I do not think it is good. How the fact that one game becomes very good year or so after its realse. So, the point here is that if you buy day one and pay the big bucks you actually play the worst verion of the game. If you play last and pay 10-20% of the price or for free with PS plus after a year, you get great exeprience.....
Kind of a broken logic to me.

Give that one a chance. It is great. Now I have the reason to replay with Antea this time on the Pro. Very cool game and the first game where the side quests are the highlight.

Thise who have not played Banishers now is the time. It is a game that was underappreciated af.

@Dan12836666 Happy gaming then

@Bluemoon2008 Exactly.
However, I am downloading now the eddition with Vessel of Hatred which it gave me for free I am happy.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner ah too bad. Thanks for letting me know. Well, I can still then replay it.

@sanderson72 I played the base game, this is why i was hoping

Extra is great. People need to keep their expectations in check. For the price of 2 AAA games you get lots of stuff during the year.

If D4 is with all the DLCs then it will be awesome addition.

Awesome !!! But also strange. I see this like some action packed game where the firsttwo were jsut being cautious and rarely even have weapeons. I hope they do not go in some "same as other games" direction.

@Reeneman I agree. I am also happy with mine but expected that sony will mandate pro enhanced features. When big titles can skip it totally then it is a disapointment for me.

@Reeneman I think you got me wrong. I mean the game was well optimized as a whole and nothing in particular done for the small differneces between systems. Even with that they game was high res and ray tracing. So, witcher can do great stuff.
As for PS5 Pro, i do not think that anyone will actually fully utilize it. It is a shame.

not neccessarily, Indiana Jones did a very good job and it was not even optimized for PS. They just now starting to really do games for PS5 without the PS4 to hold back the game.

And they said PS5 is weak It was all about devs and PS4 holding back.

@16BitHero Absolutely agree. I am not buying day ones at all.

@RagnarLothbrok Good for you. As things are turning to be - the later you play, the better the experinece.

OK, so this sounds not like a new story, but just new regions within the same story. That is disappointing for me. Hoped for new story even short one.

@BAMozzy I would only disagree on who would buy physical. I do for 2 reasons:
1. Resell value. I do not reply games ever. So I buy, play and sell. This way each game I play at the end I pay 30% of price.
2. When I am not sure if it will be my type of game so I do not loose money ( basically same as reason one).

I enjoyed it a lot. It was the "hidden" gem of the year. Deffinately interested in continuing the story.

@__Seraph nope, i am not a fan of playing one game more than once. Hoping the next will be at least as good as.

@__Seraph dont wait for other articles. go and enjoy it. I did several months ago and i enjoyed every bit of it.

That looks almost unreal. If they pull it off ... they can charge premium and they will be right to do so.

I went for the physical eddition pre-order.

Ohh, and this will be great for all others that moved their releases because of them and they moved them in 2026 too

Yeah, i saw that commimg and reacted last month and got the pro. Sold the fat ps5 for half the price of the pro so i am happy.
Btw this goes for all tech if you are planing to change. Do it now.

@Godot25 You are forgetting compatibility mate. Like downloading now PS1 game is an option.

Now thats a good news !!! Damn it is going to be an expensive year

So far is great but a nasty bug of triggering/activating the triggers when i face an NPC makes the controller click every time. Very annoying. I needed to turn of the triggers. Lame bug.

Hey guys, not sure if anyone will read here now but I have a strange issue. In the game whenever I look at a NPC the addaptice triggers click. It is very annoying. Even if an NPC goes infrom of me , it clicks. Like activating them. The only solution is to turn triggers off but it is stupid solution

So many reasons for Astro to be GOTY and all well deserved.

Well, you do not need 4K on a small screen. the smaller the screen the less ppi you will need to have a crisp picture. This lowers the tech requirements so...why not. 9 inch with 1080p is 200+ ppi....more than enough.

On PS5 Pro it is native 4K. Now waiting on all others to see their pitty excuses how other games could not and it is not enough power in the pro. Also, the base PS5 is exceptional too.

Mafia 1 and 2 were great, 3 was *****. So, I am hopefull but I will wait for the reviews. Really hoping to be a great thing.

Damn. That may be most valuable month.

I have never understood payng higher price for couple of days early access. A games value is the experience not the time of that experience. And with the state of games these days, it is best to wait for a patch or two to experience it properly. (Usualy this comes bundled with a discount). Patience always pays off.

I dont see it at all.

It is awesome game. I like it a lot. The very cool are the options you have in the story. I also very much like the graphics.

It is so cheap now but deffinately worths the money even at full price.

Well deserved for Atomfall. Enjoying it now.

Totally on Joel side.

Let's go SP. Show what the PS5 can actually do when you really know coding.

It is deffinately something different and fresh. Worths the addition to favorites to see what price they will place on it.

@SMJ Absolutely true. Xbox games will benefit a lot and also we as ps gamers and also sony.....kind of win win win
But yeah. It will be fun to see two big names head to head (and in the other news, publishers are moving schedules in order not to be close to GTA release )

@SMJ I see your point but I do not think we are at a time where we have so many huge titles per year. Also, who says you need to play them as they come. So, evetually everybody will play what they wanted. A game will give you the same experience day or 1 year later. ( well, 1 year later you will get better experience since it will be in much better state. The sad story of today games). This does not go for Indiana since it is already well fixed.

@SMJ Dont think so mate. People will buy the games they want anyway. For example, I will buy Indiana and potentialy Hellblade 2, but this will not affect my 100% purchase of Ghost of Yotei. It only means that i will be having more good games than i expected this year.
But sony will be getting 30% of those without any expense of development, marketing or whatsoever.
It is a win for us most importantly

So, free money for Sony.

Deffinately going physical on this.
