Hard to pick 3 from such a great list! I'm going to get more of them, but my 3 were 007, ghost of yotei (as I loved the first one) and Romeo is a dead man! Romeo just looked mental, fun and very violent.
Be interesting to know how much it cost to develop and market.
Many reports say subscription services are stagnant right across the board. So after spending billions on these developers, these games need to be adding big subscription numbers, not just player numbers. If it's just current subscribers playing and no growth in the service then share holders are not going to be happy.
More hyped for this game than any other this year. GOT was almost a 100% masterpiece in my eyes, and I will be playing through it again before this new game drops.
To me it was not only the right decision, it was the only decision. The chances of them finding a cure in that hospital, in those conditions from one sample is miniscule. For them not to tell her the truth, and give her the right to sacrifice herself for the greater good makes them evil. Especially given the odds of it even working. Joel did it right, the only villians were the fireflies and they got what they deserved.
Excited to drop back into this map, many fond memories playing this back when warzone launched. But unless they get the cheating, bugs and the terrible servers sorted i don't think it will bring back and keep, the players numbers their hoping for.
I'm really enjoying my time with the game so far. Atmosphere and world building are straight from the first 2 films. Graphics are really good and I've had no performance problems. Yeah i agree the aliens themselves are a bit of a let down, movement wise. But it's still great fun using the pulse rifle (i really like the hand gun too) and tracker. So far it's an 8 from me, and I'm hopefully part 2 will be even better.
Great month for me. Definitely planning to try sonic, forspoken, WRC and FIST. And for anyone on premium with psvr2, I can highly recommend the Star Wars game. Had a brilliant time with it.
@BeerMonster you bought the consoles, they made the games and the platform to play other 3rd party games. They owe you nothing, but also you owe them nothing.
Nice to see some positively around the psvr2. I've loved mine since it's release day. A great package with some truly great gaming experiences. Definitely getting Aces, hitman, wanderer and the new alien game. Highly recommend to new owners star wars, both saints and sinners and the arizona games. Though GT7 with a steering wheel set up is one of the best gaming experiences you'll ever have.
I personally just want an updated Bad Company 2! Lots of destruction and great maps. Also with the state of warzone at the mo, I'd love a BR mode with the battlefield realism/destruction and game play.
This sounds very impressive, really intrigued to see how this effects the psvr2, especially after the proper patch! It's already one of the best, most immersive games in VR.
I love this series, and this looks like it could be one of the best VR games out there. I think the immersion will be incredible. I have it preordered, but will wait until my pro arrives before i start it! Sony took the money from my account for the pro today, so not long now!
@PsBoxSwitchOwner your forgetting that it's not just series X only. It's also out physically for the xbox one (and the ps4)! That's many consoles with a disk drive. So an 88% split seems pretty high to me.
I do love this series, remember playing the first one when it launched. So will definitely play it. But I do wish they would move on to another conflict. It's usually comes down to stopping some nazi super weapon. Even if they don't want to leave WW2, a sniper elite game set in the Pacific theatre would be a nice change of scenery and challenges.
Though I'm a bit disappointed not to play any further adventures of Jin, I can't wait to play this new game. I trust SP to really push on from the first game and give us something extraordinary.
I loved this game at launch, a well realised world, great characters and the hordes were just brilliant. I've been tempted to do a new run through on my ps5 so this does interest me. But it depends on what's added/ improved. If this is true and it sells well, I can always hope we get a sequel.
Really looking forward to this, hope we get a price and pre order date. As for whether it's needed or will sell well. That's for the market to decide. Personally I think it will sell millions, 10-20 mill. Especially if the marketing rights with GTA6 are true. Console only for probably the first year and the ps5 pro will be the best place to play it.
Day one for me too, don't even care what it looks like. I have faith Sony will load the end of the ps5 like they did the ps4s life, and the pro seems like it could be a nice bump up in capability.
Everything I read and see about this game makes it a day one buy for me. Love the flat games. The atmosphere in vr is going to be great and I love the little touches like having to put on your gas mask.
Really looking forward to this update. Be interesting to see how the new physics and tyres affect online races. And the new track should look amazing in VR.
@Stickleman that's really strange, I've been doing the dailies constantly for months and never had a race that wasn't full? Did daily C this morning at spa and it was packed. Did 6 daily B's yesterday back to back and each race was full.
Can't wait to try the GT One in VR! The game is in really great shape, especially with this week's daily race C. 20 laps at spa with dynamic weather in VR is really intense.
Nice another update. If your into online races, they have made some changes to the BOP, could have a big impact on the racing and which cars are competitive.
For me personally, I've had a great year with it. Comfy, easy to use, plug and play, great haptics and triggers and brilliant visuals. As for the games, some brilliant, some very good and obviously a lot of crap. But you get that with all systems. GT7 is a masterpiece and the best VR game I've ever played(especially with a seat and wheel setup). Loved star wars. Both saints and sinners were great. Arizona sunshine 2 was fun but a bit of a disappointment. Resident evil village was brilliant, such a difference from playing flat. Looking forward to trying Resident evil 4. Switchback, after the fall and Sierra squad were all very good and worth picking up. My youngest son has also loved the system. Though I limit his time on it, he's platiumed 5 games on it and finds it much better than my old pc vr setup. My opinion, its been a great first year, and there are some really good games that I'm looking forward to, Metro, aces of thunder, wanderer and zombie army.
I've really enjoyed my first year of psvr2, played some great games. Though after 200+ hours in gt7, to me it's still the best VR game. Looking forward to wanderer, zombie army vr should be great fun, and I'm always up for more arizona sunshine.
Sounds like they improved upon the brilliant original, but still kept the best part of the first game, namely the chaotic and fun bug killing! Sign me up!
That's the best SOP I've seen in a long time. Much better than the last showcase. Really hyped for a lot of the games, but Stellar blade really surprised me. Much more depth to the game than I thought it would have. And Metro VR looked awesome, the Metro universe with their gun play, day one for me.
After I finish Arizona sunshine 2 this will be my next vr2 experience (if I can stop playing gt7). It's had great reviews across the board! With this and bulletstorm it's a decent month for the platform.
Some great games this year, I've had a blast, Star wars is just fun, resident evil village is transformed, Arizona sunshine 2 is my favourite new game. But for shear immersion, nothing beats GT7 with a steering wheel set up. Even after 200 hours in this game in VR, i still grin like a little kid when I get into a new car and look around. Its made me really get into the sport mode too. Did the manufacturer's race this morning at the Nurbergring, full course. Started in heavy rain, cleared, then went into night, all in VR! To me it's a masterpiece!
Just put an hour and a half into the game and I'm loving it so far. Though definitely not the best looking psvr2 game, it's certainly one of the most fun I've played on it so far. And Buddy has to be one of the best pet companions in any game.
Can't wait to play this game, loved the first one. Glad it's reviewing really well. Great month of games for the system. Roll on 6 o'clock when I can start playing!
So looking forward to this, village was brilliant in psvr2, changed the game for me. Can't believe they are dropping it the day after Arizona sunshine 2 comes out! Then we get Vertigo 2 followed by help wanted 2! What a great month for the system!
The first one was quite fun, and this looks even better. Seems like they've given a lot of thought into replayability with the mini games. My son loves this whole universe so is really excited to play this. Its good that they are using all the headsets features too. December is looking a good month for the platform
Another great game to get in December. What with this, arizona sunshine 2(which looks fantastic) and help wanted 2, it's going to be an expensive month.
Glad to see it did well, hopefully that will mean we get some dlc. I put 17 hours into it, so well worth the money. Especially enjoyed the later stages when you've upgraded the gun, the kills get really gory then.
Will be interesting to see the sales numbers for this thing, if they release them. I probably won't buy one, but after watching gamertag vr's video I was impressed by what I saw. He had it tethered to his phones 5g, and was playing outside with seemingly no problems.
@Godot25 like they said, it's about player engagement, they want to get people playing for more hours. Obviously your already a ps5 owner, but they want you playing at times when it's not possible(tvs tied up, your away from your home).
In their minds, more play time equals buying more games, or subscribing to extra or premium.

Re: Alien: Rogue Incursion Looks Dark and Intense in PSVR2 Gameplay Demonstration

A nice Christmas game to scare you senseless.
Re: 12 New PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Arrive Next Week

Re: Shocking: Sony Promotes PSVR2 with New Trailer Showcasing Upcoming Games
@Slippship I bet they are great experiences too. I was really hoping for F124 to come to psvr2, but they just don't seem interested.

Re: Gran Turismo 7 Clocks Native 4K/120fps on PS5 Pro Via Game Boost, Pre-Enhanced Patch

It's already one of the best, most immersive games in VR.
Re: Metro Awakening (PSVR2) - One of the Most Immersive VR Games Ever
Really looking forward to playing this Thursday. All the reviews I've seen are very positive. When VR is done probably, it's unbeatable.
Re: Metro Awakening Will Be a Reason to Own PSVR2 This Holiday
I love this series, and this looks like it could be one of the best VR games out there. I think the immersion will be incredible.
I have it preordered, but will wait until my pro arrives before i start it! Sony took the money from my account for the pro today, so not long now!
Re: UK Sales Charts: Call of Duty Remains Steady on PS5, PS4 Despite Black Ops 6's Xbox Game Pass Inclusion

Re: Rumour: Days Gone PS5 Remaster Speculation Starts to Spread
I loved this game at launch, a well realised world, great characters and the hordes were just brilliant. I've been tempted to do a new run through on my ps5 so this does interest me. But it depends on what's added/ improved.
If this is true and it sells well, I can always hope we get a sequel.
Re: Human Fall Flat VR Is Bringing Physics-Based Platforming to PSVR2
This could be a very interesting game in VR! With the physics and movement, your going to need a strong stomach.
Re: PS5 Pro Showcase Set for Tomorrow, Hosted by Mark Cerny
Really looking forward to this, hope we get a price and pre order date.
As for whether it's needed or will sell well. That's for the market to decide. Personally I think it will sell millions, 10-20 mill. Especially if the marketing rights with GTA6 are true. Console only for probably the first year and the ps5 pro will be the best place to play it.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Astro Bot?
Just over 3 hours in and I can't stop smiling. The inventiveness of the developers is off the chart. I hope this sells millions.
Re: FlatOut Returns with PSVR2 Title Now in Development
Really looking forward to this one. Be nice to have a less serious/ fun alternative to GT7.

Definitely a day one buy for me. Seems like there's a lot more to the game than just hack and slash. And the world looked stunning.
Re: Poll: How Would You Rate the Latest State of Play Showcase?
That's the best SOP I've seen in a long time. Much better than the last showcase.
Really hyped for a lot of the games, but Stellar blade really surprised me. Much more depth to the game than I thought it would have.
