It won't come out then either. Ghost will have been out, finished by millions, released on to steam for millions more and rockstar will still be raking in gta 5 online, with no release.
I don't know why I have it, I stopped playing online a while ago on PS. The games are a bonus but I play less as I get older. I do share the ps5 with the kids and they get the money out of it I suppose. Only ever had game pass or xbox gold I think it was on 360, and only then when you got a free month.
30, maybe 35 years ago I'd have bought two or three. But I'm still happy with a ridiculous backlog. And after spending 5 hours in the flipper museum in Budapest this week I'm back on pinball arcade Attack from Mars which is no longer available as a Bally table. Oh and I've bought the Thing remastered to play. Gaming is good.
Cold Fear was a curiously good game, have on steam deck and played again. I am alive was a great premise and enjoyed it. Nice to see new lease of life in them both.
Bit of a weird one. We were keeping Mincraft and Call of Duty. So never porting. And they have billions to recoup from their take over anyway. I have forza 4 on steam deck so know I don't need another map of icons in my life, the rest will be bargain bin anyway. There's no Mass Effect moments there for me. Bough a 360 for it. 😁
Regina had some daft outfits. Was Janky as hell but Dino Crisis still needs a comeback. Costumes have a mixture of Ripley, alien, and resident evil films. If the game works then I'll buy.
It's the best assasins creed game but without the moniker. It plays sublime, has great tempo, upgrade paths, still plays better than most new games. Love it.
I only buy a few games, and now having a PC too I seem to have bought them again. So a game has to tick what I want to play and a single player approach is exactly it, Tsushima has been beaten to platinum on psn(PS4 and PS5) and all achievements on steam. It shows that when done right a single player experience is still achievable. Witcher 3, Cyberpunk, eventually, GTA4, RDR 1&2, inFamous. Cat nip for the oldie. There are many more I know but can't just list em.
Back in the good old days of C64/Speccy/MSX or ST/Amiga we had the same games across all platforms. So you pick a preferred platform, how it suited you not paying money just for a game. I still find it daft to this day.
One I have never played. Well, any of them tbh. There is a lot of misery against remasters and remakes, yet this one gets quite a lot of love and appreciation.
I might have to jump in but will wait and see. I have so many games now, and none are new, PS PLUS keeps my library so full its hard to justify which is another negative to subscriptions I suppose.
Have yet to play a live service game., unless Elite Dangerous counts. Am sure there's something that makes them interesting. Maybe I'm too old to understand.
I buy Terry Pratchett hardbacks in all their forms. I'm a sucker for it, my library is repeated but with various covers and designs. It's just the same sort of thing but for games. If that's your thing then why not.
The speed of everything thee days has to be a million miles an hour. The Gen X among us are still reeling from the likes of The Last Ninja and Monkey Island and Outrun. But lost in time as too retro for the post iPhone culture.
Just call me Mr sales, or 2nd hand, but games aren't that good, the best ones make their money back, the bad ones I don't buy. Bring back Codemaster copies at £1.99 a cassette.
Motorstorm, best madness multiplayer racing. inFamous 1 and 2, excellent start to a franchise which is lost to most. Resistance had 3 excellent games which have gone for most. There will be more but there's a start. Mainly original Motorstorm for me modernised. Loved that game.
Not surprised at all. Bought it for my steam deck as I am away for a few months. But already have it on PS. And already rebought Witcher 3 for similar reasons. Some games for me are annually replayable.
I'd play it on psvr2, shame I'd have to buy it on pc to do it. F1 23 on steam with psvr2 is bonkersly good. Why it's done elsewhere and not PS5 is just silly.
Multiplayer options are irrelevant. I started out single player in the 70's or local coop in the living room. I haven't experienced an online part of a game in over a decade as its generally an awful experience. Apart from racing, then it's great to play virtual dodgems with all the carp as I never play enough to get top leagues. But my kids do nothing else. Bit of balance there.
There must be a lot of original ps5 owners that don't join in this site because I don't believe for a second that many people have shelled out for the next 1/2 gen when games are still being released for ps4.
I was hoping for something like Elite Dangerous with a back story that wasn't all text on galnet. Shame it turned out less so. But if it comes to plus, which would be hilarious as the game was the reason xbox bought them, then okay.
I love steam deck but it's only there for when at sea. Thing is it is also cursed by developers always online approach which for a handheld is silly at best. So I can't play EA or Rockstar away. Ps5 and pc are the biggies when at home.
It's a proper chalk and cheese game isn't it. I got the game with my ps plus ps5 purchase and never played it. Bought it for 7 quid on steam and played it four or five times through on deck.
It shows that ps plus games are often ignored over purchases for me. I have completed on ps5 now on a big screen and it's a belter. Free roam instead of tlou handholding is for me a lot better. Controversial I know.
F1 manager 24, latest free game from Epic that I don't subscribe anything to and runs wonderfully on my steam deck. Daughter has ps5 this weekend for NBA 25 or something.
Whilst the premise sounds great and rebellion are a pretty reliable studio, that looks old already. But that isn't a bad thing as long as it plays well. Stories are not defined by looks alone.
One of the best games I've played. I also have it on Steam so I can take away on steam deck. The horde mechanics are incredible. The story is excellent and it's the most underrated ps4 post apocalypse game. I shall be getting the extra on PC, but will definitely get it on PS5.
Well we paid for a service. Yes they gave us five days back. I'm glad everyone now sees what this always online madness is going to do to your digital purchases. Void and unusable. Sony need to find a way of letting you own your purchases no matter it be drive or digital. PC users face the same drivel from the power hungry like EA and Rockstar.
Knew this gen was never going to work whilst away for months on a ship, without WiFi. I could have used ps4 or ps3 but opted on a steam deck. Now unless you are online you can't.play single player anything from EA, or Rockstar. I managed to get Ubisoft working after a faff, but you need internet to start. It's annoying when you've bought your licence or whatever garbage they call it this year, but I bought it. It may say in the 50000 page smallprint that I must always be online, anyone read it. Mass effect on steam needs an EA login and always online, no multilayer, just corpo neredowells forcing their rules on us. It's only getting worse going digital.
Astrobot is not Sci fi, its a psn platform er full of gaming references. May aswell have put spyro there, or crash. But there's a lot of off the wall features lately.
I have a Kingston trackball on my pc. Hate mouse cramp. Played.Killzone with keyboard.and mouse.on PS2 with a ps2 adaptor.of all things. But no, no more thanks.

Mafia 2 and 3 are free with Prime gaming so my steam deck is getting some attention.
Re: EA Sports F1 25 Makes Some Sweeping Changes to My Team Career Mode on PS5

Love the game but a switch version will be toilet compared to deck.

Re: EA Sports F1 25 Ditches Last Gen, Brings Back Braking Point This May on PS5

Why it's done elsewhere and not PS5 is just silly.
