It’s an amazing game. Tons of content and a constant stream of free content being added. Easily one of the top PS5 games. If you have PSVR2, it’s a completely new level of gaming. Unbelievable.
Star Wars Episode I: Racer, aside from the visuals, still holds up today. I had loads of fun replaying it in PS4 and Xbox One. Bought it on Switch too but haven’t played it yet.
If this can take that gameplay and add a Burnout spice to the flavour with the Star Wars license, I’m all in.
@Sweetz Yeah, such a shame it never came. Pretty much every format back then but PS1.
Death Stranding 2 is easily my game of the year. Some amazing games this year, but Death Stranding 2 blew me away. Platinumed it and didn’t want it to end.
Ooh nice. I bought that for Ace Combat and Star Wars Squadrons in VR and it was great. Cool to at it will work with Flight Simulator too. Looking forward to playing it on PSVR2.
@get2sammyb Birmingham City and the area in general. My memory was a bit of the Bullring and a couple of buildings looked “3D” modelled but the rest and 100% the surrounding areas were flat with terrible imagery. I remember Villa Park looked like a squashed low res JPEG haha.
Just wondered if the city was one of cities that got a much better update.
@get2sammyb What’s Birmingham like these days? I played it when it first came out for Xbox a few years ago and it looked like a 2 years olds paper mache project.
Regardless, I’ll buy it when PSVR2 support is added.
As others have said, because of the amazing support and free content this game has had over the years, I’ll 100% buy this in support of them. Brilliant game. One of PS5’s best and one of the best VR games ever made.
Highly recommend both, but if you only have time for one, Star Wars was surprisingly good. Throwing and catching a lightsaber Mjolnir style is awesome. Haha.
Echoing what has already been said. Artful Escape was awesome and the soundtrack was outstanding. I’m really looking forward to this, I’ll be there day one for sure.
I played a bit of Tsushima again just before Yotei, just to remind myself of the game. I’m glad I did because Yotei feels better in almost every way. But I wonder if I hadn’t, would my mind have said, this is just more of the same. Probably.
Ah, damn. I predicted the last week of October. Big shame, but I still wouldn’t be surprised if it slipped again. Until I have it installed, I won’t believe it. Haha.
They just need to give us a GTA IV remaster to tide us over.
I started this the day it came out and really enjoyed it. But then Ghost came out and I haven’t been back since. I really need to get back into it. Might try and spend a few hours on it this weekend.
@get2sammyb I saw this and did think it looked cool. I’ve never touched Fortnite but I saw I get Fortnite Crew with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Just had a quick look at what that is and none of it really made and sense. Haha. I’m guessing it’s all cross progression? If I start on Xbox I can use this Crew thing and continue on other platforms?
I had no idea the female protagonist was the issue. I hadn’t seen that anywhere. I thought it was both sides angry about that tweet, one side for saying it, one side for being fired over it.
Preordered it anyway. Great game and it’s getting more and more engaging as I progress.
Playing on PS5 Pro in Ray Tracing Pro mode. Haven’t had a single crash… yet haha. The only thing that has glitched on me was one time I needed to press diagonal up-left and jump to continues climbing and it just wouldn’t recognise I was pressing it. Had to reload to last checkpoint and it worked fine after that.
I need to go back to this at some point. I enjoyed what I played, can’t remember what game I dropped it for. Looks like I have quite a bit of the DLC to buy. Year 1, 2 and 3. Haha.
@naruball @Ainu20 I don’t know what they are doing. All these old light gun games are perfect for VR. Have you seen On Point for VR (not coming to PSVR2 as far as I know). They obviously thought the same too. Release all the old arcade shooters in VR!
Day one games, 5 in the past 4/5 weeks. Metal Gear Solid Delta Deluxe Edition, Everybody’s Golf, Borderlands 4 Super Deluxe Edition, Sonic Racing Crossworlds and Ghost of Yotei. I typically buy and preorder everything I want to play day one, regardless of if I’m going to play it straight away, to show support to the developers.
I also buy random stuff in the sales most weeks.
Oh also bought the Mario Galaxy games on Switch 2 at the weekend.
@Jayphex I had the same issue with Chrome. I commented earlier but deleted, because I fixed it.
I just used a different browser (safari) and it worked. I got past that screen which ironically takes you to the next screen which asks for your date of birth. Haha
Only about 4 hours in, but it’s brilliant so far. Visually stunning. That opening reminded me how good the opening of Tsushima was. Looking forward to getting into it properly at the weekend.
It’s just an opinion piece, published because they know it will wind everyone up and get them tons of engagement.
My personal opinion is that I don’t agree at all. I’ve enjoyed all the games mentioned. While they have similar themes in theory, I’ve never felt I’m playing through the same story.
This would be awesome, I really want to play through both again before the last part comes out, so this will be a massive help. I’ll just smash through and enjoy refreshing my memory on the story.
@Ken_Kaniff Yeah, while I’ll still play them both to completion, it’s a nice little extra to get a Platinum for some of your old favourites. Especially considering most of us have finished them multiple times already. I just wish Namco and Capcom would get on board with the trophy side of the classics.

Re: PSVR2's Highly Anticipated Aces of Thunder Locks in a 3rd February Release Date
Really looking forward to this. These types of games are perfect for VR.
Just wish Ace Combat 8 had PSVR2 support. The missions in Ace Combat 7 in VR were mind blowing.
@get2sammyb it’s well worth it. Star Wars Squadrons and Ace Combat 7 were great with it in PSVR too.
Re: Poll: What Are Your Most Anticipated PS5 Games of 2026?
Grand Theft Auto 6
Wolverine
Star Wars Galactic Racer
Tomb Raider
007
Resident Evil 9 and Ace Combat 8 would be on there if PSVR2 compatibility was announced.

Re: This Is the Only Flight Stick Compatible with Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 on PS5, But More Are on the Way

Re: Rumour: Dead Rising Sequel Will See Frank West Take on a Deranged Director in Hollywood
I absolutely love the Dead Rising games so this is great news. Might boot up Dead Rising 4: Frank’s Big Package for some Christmas violence. Hahaha.
Looking forward to whatever this is already.
Re: Horizon Sales Update Cements It As One of Sony's Strongest Franchises
Glad to hear it continues to do really well. One of PlayStations best IP. I’m really looking forward to the 3rd game.
Re: EA Sports Skipping Standalone F1 Game in 2026, Will Return 'Reimagined' in 2027
@Fakeplastictree Haha. Came to say the same thing. Codemasters were good at it too.
Re: Sony's PS Plus Premium Offer for PSVR2 Games Seems to Die Next Month
Highly recommend both, but if you only have time for one, Star Wars was surprisingly good. Throwing and catching a lightsaber Mjolnir style is awesome. Haha.
Re: Promising PS5 Story Game Mixtape Is Delayed to 2026
Echoing what has already been said. Artful Escape was awesome and the soundtrack was outstanding. I’m really looking forward to this, I’ll be there day one for sure.
Re: The Real Star of Gran Turismo 7's Free PS5, PS4 Update Is a 312km/h Minivan
Really looking forward to Yas Marina in PSVR2. All the tracks look amazing in VR and Yas Marina at night is going to be awesome.
Re: Poll: Is Ghost of Yotei Better Than Ghost of Tsushima?

Re: PowerWash Sim 2 Will Continue to Team Up with Other IPs for DLC Packs
I still need to go back to the first one and get those 5 gold medals. Just need those for the Platinum.
Great game to just chill and listen to podcasts and music. Really good fun in VR too. Wish they would bring it to PSVR2.
Re: These 26+ New PS5, PS4, PS Plus Games Are Coming Out Next Week (20th-26th October)
@Jrs1 Same here, Fast & Furious: Arcade Edition for me and Wreckreation the week after. Decent couple of weeks for arcade racing games.

Re: Poll: What Are Your First Impressions of Ghost of Yotei on PS5?
Only about 4 hours in, but it’s brilliant so far. Visually stunning. That opening reminded me how good the opening of Tsushima was. Looking forward to getting into it properly at the weekend.

Borderlands 4 and Sonic Crossworlds.
Re: City Hunter Is Back in a Big Way on PS5 as PC Engine Classic Plots Modern Console Comeback

@Ken_Kaniff Yeah, while I’ll still play them both to completion, it’s a nice little extra to get a Platinum for some of your old favourites.
