Not surprised if it's true that they'll choose XDEV for wipeout, considering some of those veterans have already worked on Wipeout games. Just hope it does better at launch than Destruction All Stars.
Speaking of which, I'm still surprised that Sony haven't made a new Twisted Metal game. Instead of Hardware Rivals or Destruction All Stars, why not bring back the iconic TM franchise back?
@darkswabber I remember when they offered Holfrain, a PS Talents hero shooter game, for free, and honestly, it's still nothing to write home about. It was functional but I'm not sure if the developers are still providing support for the game.
Combat needs a bit more "oomph" when hitting enemies but regardless, this is really promising. Reminds me of Xuan Yuan Sword 7 but slightly more polished haha. Wonder if Sony Asia will pick this and possibly Black Myth for their China Hero program?
Imo, what this game needs is 1) better single player content (even the character's arcade stories aren't worth writing about), 2) more varied maps (like maybe one taking place at a beach, or warehouse or the likes), 3) some sort of range weaponry, as to take example from Twisted Metal's gameplay, and 4) speaking of twisted metal, a Twisted Metal collaboration would help boost the game's popularity a bit.
Seeing any sort of Half life content on Playstation is fadcinating to see. I think the first to do this was Fall Guys with his Gordom Freeman skin, which was later added on the Playstation version.
A shame it's being wasted on a moba/battle royale F2P game. And as much as I support chinese games, when it comes to F2P games, especially competitive ones, they would one way or another implement some annoying or scummy monetization (all while not bothering to care for the balance of the game), and this one probably won't be an exception. The fact that it has a 6 on Steam definitely makes me all the more cautious. I might still try it out but I won't hold my breath for something spectacular.
Also, I like they shown off more the male characters then the female characters, possibly because a lot of them are sort of very...well, revealing lol
Same thoughts exactly. It just feels weird to see Sony make a state of play dedicated for this game. A game that is, at the end of the day, a Microsoft game, whose sequel, if succesful, would end up being an Xbox exclusive, making this all the more ironic.
Not only that, but the Vita was the first handheld to let you continue where you left off if, at some point, your vita turned off due to low battery while playing a game. It's a feature that was later implemented on the Switch.
As long as the game offers single pñayer content, I'm all for it. Cause the problem with Sony is that they're just not good as "live-as-a-service" or "continous online only" multiplayer games. They should rather stick to single player games with multiplayer mode(s).
And as for what I like the game to be, either a new resistance game or possibly a Spiderman co-op spinoff a la Ghost of Tsushima legends. Maybe standalone this time? Wouldn't mind if it's inspired by Spiderverse lol Although I also wouldn't mind a ratchet and clank multiplayer game just as long it doesn't suffer the same issues as Full Frontal Assault.
@Nepp67 It's sad when even Square's and Ubi's conferences were more exciting by comparison. The fact that they ended the E3 with pointless talk about e-sports with SF5 and no new information about the dlc characters was a questionable decision.
At this point, if a game like this gets ported to next gen consoles, then anything can happen, no matter how impossible it sounds...except Legend of Dragoon 2...cries
Also, I appreciate that you guys linked AVGN's video on it. Definitely one of my favorites.
I'm interested on what they'll add for the game. I wasn't too big on Death Stranding but this trailer enough gave me a big ibterest on trying the game again once the Director's Cut gets released.
Imo, it was most certainly expected. Since we have yet to hear anything about Ragnarok, it's quite obvious that a delay was inevitable. But oh well. I rather have them have enough time to finish their game instead of rushing it out because of the public's demand.
While it's nothing much, I do hope Sony considers on bringing the IP to Playstation platforms. Sunset Overdrive was one of the better Xbox One exclusives, and it's a shame it didn't do well for Microsoft.
@nessisonett Yeah, I can see why. Still, good for them for managing on porting the game to consoles. Even if I'm not entirely interested on the game (is not bad, just not my cup of tea, as the true fun is when you and the rest of the players are socializing).
I remember there was an article about the devs saying that it was impossible to port the game to the PS4 and Xbox One due to the reliance of the keyboard. Guess that article (or interview to be exact) is now poorly aged huh lol
Since Sony is now seeing the fortune they could get with Fornite, I wonder if we could get The Last of Us, Uncharted or even Ghost of Tsushima characters for the game. Seems like a no brainer if you ask me lol The closest thing we could get for a PS All stars (featuring Master Chief from the Halo series).
I dunno why but I got reminded of that Yander Simulator meme twitter account, where the account user posts stuff that has happened before the Yander Simulator game finished development.
Hope it doesn't turn out as a mess like Sword and Fairy 6 (since both Xuan Yuan Sword and Sword and Fairy are from the same devs) considering how overly buggy and glitchy that game was at launch.
Also, from what I have read, the game suffer from pacing issues, as well as the combat suffer from button mashing issues, as you can spam a certain attack over and over again, making the enemy get stuck on a stunlock. Hopefully, they listened to the feedback and fixed some of the issues. From what I have read, the bosses were atleast good. Last i also checked, they kept adding new stuff like new bosses, minigames, and even an arena mode if you really don't csre much for the story and just want to duke out against waves of enemies.
@chicken_chaser That's good, because the game is definitely gonna need that considering how much the hype or interest for the game died (or at best, is slowly dwindling). I hope the developers can continue to improve on the game or else it'll suffer the same fate as Anthem. Imo, I would have enjoyed the game a lot more, even if it got repetitive, if it wasn't for the "always online" requirement. Same thing with Outriders. Did games like Nioh and Borderlands not show that you can make a loot-based game that you can play with and without online?
Looks interesting. I'm always up to anything that could scratch that PS Home itch. Reminds me, can Dreams support online multiplayer? Or can it only support local multiplayer as of now?

Glad that the dlc harkens back to the old Assassin's Creed playstyle. Interested on checking it out now.

@Jayofmaya The reviews for Waves Out says otherwise though lol Though I'm interested for your thoughts on it if you managed to try the game out.

Honestly surprised to see Hunter Arena there. Kinda wished Moss 2 did better but oh well. Kudos for FIST, Sifu and Death Stranding though!

Re: Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin Is a Souls-Looking Action RPG, PS5 Demo Coming Soon
I recall a leak saying that the game would be exclusive for Playstation but I guess not lol
Also, is it weird that I'm more excited for this than with Babylon Falls?
Re: PS5's Destruction AllStars Adding Bots to Online Multiplayer
I mean, atleast it has bots. Unlike one of Sony's previous vehicular combat games, Hardware Rivals.
Re: PS5 Console Exclusive Godfall Is, Er, Coming to PS4
I do hope both the update and expasion brings some improvements the game suffered at launch.
Also, while not comletely confirmed, the game's xbox version was also leaked.

Re: Insomniac Games Renews Trademark for Xbox Exclusive Sunset Overdrive

Re: PS Plus Subscribers in Spain Get a Bonus Game Next Month
Sounds nice, however, the reviews for the game, according on metacritic, don't look so good. I guess it was slightly more positive on Spain?

Re: Court Documents Reveal Almost 50% of Fortnite's Revenue Is on PlayStation
Since Sony is now seeing the fortune they could get with Fornite, I wonder if we could get The Last of Us, Uncharted or even Ghost of Tsushima characters for the game.

Looks awesome, though some of the special effects looked kinda off. Regardless, I'm interested. Also, the music is pretty dope lol
Re: DMC-Inspired Indie Lost Soul Aside Poised for Chinese PlayStation Presser
Awesome. Been so long since we heard anything from the game.
Re: Xuan Yuan Sword 7 Brings the Long Running Action RPG Series West on PS4 This Summer
Hope it doesn't turn out as a mess like Sword and Fairy 6 (since both Xuan Yuan Sword and Sword and Fairy are from the same devs) considering how overly buggy and glitchy that game was at launch.
Also, from what I have read, the game suffer from pacing issues, as well as the combat suffer from button mashing issues, as you can spam a certain attack over and over again, making the enemy get stuck on a stunlock. Hopefully, they listened to the feedback and fixed some of the issues. From what I have read, the bosses were atleast good.

Re: Next-Gen Showcase Godfall Seems Poised for PS4
@chicken_chaser That's good, because the game is definitely gonna need that considering how much the hype or interest for the game died (or at best, is slowly dwindling). I hope the developers can continue to improve on the game or else it'll suffer the same fate as Anthem. Imo, I would have enjoyed the game a lot more, even if it got repetitive, if it wasn't for the "always online" requirement. Same thing with Outriders. Did games like Nioh and Borderlands not show that you can make a loot-based game that you can play with and without online?
@Flaming_Kaiser Well, you got that right lol
Re: Next-Gen Showcase Godfall Seems Poised for PS4
Wouldn't it made more sense to port it to Xbox Series X? Why for the PS4?
Re: Dreams Central Is Surely the Most Ambitious Dreams Project Yet
