Damn. Now I want it. Looks gorgeous!

Scummy company. Would not release base PS5 performance details before reviews and these were not allowed before launch. Sent a PS5 Pro with the game installed to Digital Foundry instead of just sending them a copy for review and now undisclosed AI assets in the game. Will not buy this game.

And yet I still have to completely log out of my partner's PSN session and do a full log in into my own, when I simply want to change the user account. How is this still an issue on the Portal when it's so simple on the PS5? Does Sony think each Portal has only one user? It's still a gimped experience.

Very good update to the system. Addictive systems have negative impacts on younger people and should not be accessible to them. Also happy to see there's no censorship initiatives, which should be combated against. Could not imagine living in Japan and gaming there with all the censorship Cero forces.

It's such a good game. Loved my time with it. Aiming for a replay soon, once the PSSR 2.0 update is fully out.

Not really. I've gone fully digital with the start of the PS5 generation. The games I absolutely must have on launch, I buy at launch for full price and always the standard edition. Don't need the extra crap, which is usually more money for digital outfits anyway - a waste of money IMO.

For all the other games, I wait until I am in the mood for it and that generally coincides with a sale that shows a price that is as low as I can remember. Even better these days with the lowest price in the previous 30 days showing.

Sure. Ghost of Yotei was also going to be a flop, the same people were saying.

Let's not listen to what bots and crazed right wing ideologues try to peddle online and we'll all live better lives.

They need to leave those sales on the table because Steam Machines are coming and they will be Sony's next biggest competitor. If you can get PS5/6 games on a Steam Machine, why would you get a Sony console? It's simply prioritising the PlayStation business through exclusivity, like it's been done for decades before.

Xbox might be essentially out, but the strategy remains valid, as Nintendo also shows, when a direct competitor enters the fray.

Hermen Hulst needs to go. Now. He is radioactive toxic waste to the PlayStation brand.

I'm not the biggest fan of indie fan out there, but I will get a gem once in a while. Neva was my most recent one - absolutely loved it and looking forward to the DLC tomorrow. Out of Words should be my next one, it looks incredible and I'm sure it'll pull at the heartstrings as well. Wish listed it straight away when it was first shown a few weeks ago.

My PS5 Pro, which is stupidly powerful for a console and has yet to reach anywhere near the zenith of its potential, is the reason why 2027 feels too soon and even 2028 feels like it could easily be stretched to 2029, particularly with this year’s update to PSSR.

Each new console hardware generation brings less of a visual difference impact to games, even if it usually does bring new functionalities and QoL improvements. But none of it makes it feel worthwhile to pursue in the same time frames that they used to be pursued in. Longer generations are now fine, especially with Pro versions of consoles, or their equivalents.

This is a day one for me, no questions asked. Particularly after that trailer.

Just came in here to say that I had Neva in my wish list since before it launched and this announcement, plus the 50% discount, made me finally buy it. And it is the work of art that reviews have generally agreed on.

It's incredibly beautiful (the graphics on my 75" Bravia 9 are absolutely drop dead gorgeous and I would even suggest people that appreciate artistic visuals get it just to experience them along with the excellent soundtrack - it's that good), the soundtrack is melodious and powerful and complements the game so well and the gameplay, which seemed too simplistic in the beginning, increases in complexity as the game progresses and it's just generally a great gaming experience.

I'm halfway through and already looking forward to the Prologue as well. Glad I forgot everything about he trailer though because I don't want spoilers.

I really couldn't care less. I always buy the standard version for a game I want and if I have to wait a bit, so be it. These added "benefits" aren't really of added value to me. Or I will simply get the game much later when it's on sale. Patience, people, patience. As opposed to FOMO, patience improves lives so much.

"gotten going"? Is it 'murdering the English language' time?

I'm sorry Guerrilla, but I won't be supporting you until Horizon 3 comes out. I have both previous games and enjoyed them immensely, but multiplayer fare is not my cup of tea at all.

Played the demo on both my PS5 Pro and Switch 2. The former is clearly higher resolution and framerate, but the latter is still smoothly played. I do prefer the Switch 2 Pro controller to the DualSense and that can sometimes influence what console I get a game for. But in Pragmata's case, despite the smoothness of the Switch 2 version, the lower resolution is too obvious for me, so I've decided to get the game for the PS5 Pro.

All in all though, good work on Capcom's part to make it as smooth in gameplay as possible for both versions.

This is good news and a reminder not only to myself, but to everyone that online discourse is often skewed to serve certain malicious intents and does not necessarily reflect reality.

I guess our 75" Bravia 9 that we bought only a few months ago will be our last Sony TV, unfortunately. End of an era indeed.

I loved LiS1 and LiS2. Was very disappointed with True Colors. Haven't played any of the others.

My personal canon ending in LiS1 is that Arcadia Bay was saved, so if Chloe returns for this upcoming game, I will definitely be done with the series. Retconning like this would be way beyond what I'm willing to accept.

I've been Pro-pared since the Pro launched!

And finally I'll be able to replay Silent Hill 2 Remake without the intense shimmering effect (hopefully).

Excuse me? I saved Arcadia, this plot is impossible.

Can we just move away from Max and Chloe please? While I really didn't like True Colors, LiS2 was also great and really struck a chord with me. It is possible to create new impactful LiS games without those 2 characters.

Deck9 is milking this franchise and they're going to kill it.

I've played the demo and was really impressed with how clean and polished it looks. The menus are also really snappy. I does lose a bit of the charm from the 3DS version (which I assume is close to the original version), but as it's a Reimagined version, there would always be some differences. Some fat has very clearly been trimmed. I'll wait for reviews but I'm very likely to purchase it.

I was gifted Death Stranding when it came out but could never complete it. And I did try numerous times, but I simply hate the basic premise and the gameplay of that game. Suffice it to say, I did not purchase the sequel.

However, I was a fan of the Metal Gear Solid games (1, 2 and 4 - disliked 3 and never played 5) and both OD and Physint seem very interesting propositions. So whilst I've fallen off the Kojima bandwagon for the last few years due to Death Stranding, I'm ready to get back on board if OD comes to PS5 and Physint proves to be a worthy successor to MGS.

They're too long and I hate the socialising-ness of it all. Make them shorter and detach the social aspects from the critical path of the game and that's an immediate improvement. There, consider that advice free Atlus.

Sad day for gaming. He's made Captain Qwark into a character that is a lovable, memorable coward and sidekick. The next Ratchet & Clank should have a little homage to him.

You don't see the harm in someone using someone else intellectual property? Keep to sharing the news and leave your opinions at the front door.

Multiplayer AND mobile? It's like a double sin. Ignoring this will be easy.

Not touching those 2 online games. And this is coming from someone that bought and platinumed both Horizon games so far.

Keep trying to force feed me multiplayer crap, the more disconnected I'll be from your games Sony.

One of the richest, most successful gaming companies around and... they can't bear the thought of paying people fairly and allowing them to unionise and fight for adequate worker rights.

Tax the rich, to hell and back. And then to hell again.

You would need PS Plus Premium for this feature and I see no need for me to pay the very large amount of money it costs. I prefer buying games I really want, rather than paying a premium to have a selection of games available to me that I might not even be interested in and making me feel like my backlog is even bigger than what it already is.

I'm happy with Essential, so my Portal will continue being used only for Remote Play.

Regardless of whether they're first party or third party, Microsoft always comes out with the most inane statements and positions. All bravado, no common sense. No wonder they went the same way SEGA did, for different reasons.

Everything that Microsoft touches eventually turns to expletive.

Xbox telling PlayStation what to do is like a goldfish telling a shark how to best use his many sharp teeth. No clue, no insight, all non-sense.

I like both Code Veronica and 0, so I'm very happy about that release schedule for the next 3 or 4 years.

@Skippermonkey My experience so far has also been just as positive. If only every other game was this fast and this polished. Sony first party are a breed all its own.

I was hoping for 2028. 2027 is still too soon for me.

I got both the PS5 and the PS5 Pro at launch and the same thing for PS4 Pro. By the time these consoles released I felt that I got my money back from their predecessors, so I was ready for them.

However, the original PS4 I got 8 months post launch and I think I'll be doing the same the PS6, if not later than that. Perhaps after the upcoming games are released, particularly Naughty Dog's truly new game in years, I'll feel differently. But for now, 2027 just seems too early for a generation where Sony has failed in delivering tent-pole single player games in sufficient numbers like they have previously.

inFamous can't hold a candle to Ghost of. With the latter SP has gone further as a game maker than they had ever been. I don't miss that series.

It's been on my PS5 Wishlist for years now. Will wait for reviews, but excited to play a 3rd person shooter with fresh, interesting, fun mechanics.

I bought SH2R at launch and will do the same for SH1R, but SHf is a sale purchase for me, whenever that happens. It doesn't look or feel Silent Hill to me, and that's a grievous mistake.

Honestly, he seems a lot more Wolverine, in physique and in enthusiasm for the role, than Hugh Jackman ever did. I've also never been the biggest Jackman fan, so McIntyre stands out to me. Finally a Marvel-Insomniac game that I'm actually interested in!

Already pre-loaded on my Pro!

Great news! Loving my time with the game and taking it slow, just absorbing the beautiful landscapes and the ways in which the devs portray the culture of the time and context. It's so full of details!

Day one. Have had it pre-ordered for months now!

Getting this on a sale, out of a mild level of curiosity.

As a long time fan of Silent Hill, since the very first game even, but one that quit on the series after buying Origins and only came back with the remake for 2, this does not feel Silent Hill to me at all. Every time I watch a trailer it feels like I'm looking at a Fatal Frame look alike. And even for that series I have little to no interest.

I'm saving my money for the remake of the original game, which thankfully Bloober is already working on.

Loved the trailer! And happy about once again being excited for a Kojima game. The Death Stranding series has been nothing but a huge disappointment for me personally.

Furthermore, as a PS5 Pro owner I'm not worried at all that I won't be able to play this. That Xbox exclusivity is probably not going to much else than timed for 6 to 12 months, particularly at a time when Xbox has essentially gone third party. When Gears of War has gone multi-platform and the rumours for Starfield and Halo to go the same way abound, you're only required to have a little patience until OD Knock is also released for PlayStation.

I'm very happy with my PS5 Pro and only I can say if it was worth it. To me it was and is worth it. And the simple way I can show my disapproval of low effort from developers and publishers is by not buying games made by those that don't put the effort to properly implement PSSR and use the Pro's features.

I have bought (and thoroughly enjoyed even, despite its issues with shimmering) the Silent Hill 2 remake, but will not be buying any other games that are known to be poorly optimised for the Pro. Voting with our wallets is always the best way to reward lazy implementations of features for a premium console. And I do not feel shortchanged at all just because a couple of developers that I can easily ignore have been disappointing in their support for the console and its features.

Other than the above, I've been enjoying playing all my other games with incredible performance and polish. Exactly what I paid its asking price for.

I actually love the look of this remake of DQ7! Like others have said, the graphic style is still recognisably Toriyama. I was instantly interested the moment the video came on and I didn't yet know what it was. I'm very likely to get it on release and seeing as it's a type of game that lends itself to a console such as the Switch 2, I'll probably buy it on there rather than for my PS5 Pro.

What I don't like at all is the subtitle for the game. Reimagined? Really? How bland can you get, naming an iconic entry in an iconic franchise "Reimagined". We go from DQ7 "Fragments of the Forgotten Past" to... Reimagined. Brain rot and marketing corporate heads coming together to kill creativity even in games' titles.

A 2.5D God of War game? Who the hell wants something like that after the GoW games we've had? Feels like a regression. Hard pass for me regardless of the quality, as it's not the type of game I enjoy playing, much less for an IP such as GoW.

But exactly WHO resurrected the brand? That's the point here. Someone with money bought the rights to the name and whatever IP, if any, is attached to it. And knowing who that is, is what really matters here.
