Regarding Outlaws, the Star Wars brand as a whole has been ran into the ground recently. Oversaturation with low quality failures. From the Last Jedi to the Acolyte. Needs to go away for a bit. Used to be so special back when there were only 3 movies.
Wonder if we'll still get the rumoured DD2 expansion. Great game but could be so much greater. Much like the original was vastly improved with the Dark Arisen stuff.
Maybe they do and I missed it, but Sony (or pushsquare on their behalf) needs to do a survey like Capcom did a few months back. 'Unique and attractive characters' was the second largest want worldwide.
Yeah I don't really care. What else do they have? Starfield? Nah. Keep it. Halo and Gears were good 20 years ago. The only MS exclusive I'd really like to see on PS5 is Quantum Break.
Love Machine games Wolfenstein. Excited to see what they do with Indy. Fond memories of the Emperors Tomb on the original Xbox. Over 20 years ago! Jesus! Then again the last good Indy film was 35 years ago.
These guys made Halo and Playstation is entirely lacking in first-party shooters. Get them to make a new IP - advertised as from the creators of Halo and Destiny, exclusive to Playstation - designed to be ripe for sequels, with a big-budget campaign and robust multiplayer mode.
But noooo. "Live service wee wee wee". The purchase of Bungie was a good idea, how they've been used since is the problem.
@AccessibleDaydream Alan Wake 2 got its (excellent and feature-packed) photo mode this june after releasing in october. Should they have delayed the full game 8 months until it was ready? Bit absurd.
It looks like multiple 'we already have . . . at home' examples rolled into one. Add the visually unappealing characters and who is this for?
A better idea would be to invest in smaller games and spin-offs between the big ones. Lost Legacy and Miles Morales did well. I would buy a Tsushima, or Last of Us spin-off for £40 in a heartbeat.
Or work with smaller studios on new exclusives. Would love to see what (for example) Don't Nod or Spiders would do if backed by Sony resources.
Well deserved! It's a great game. Well-written and vastly customisable, with an excellent combat system and oddly cozy open world that respects the players time. This generation's Days Gone IMO.
Police Sim. One of those games I kinda want but would never actually pay for. 9/10 rated on Steam though, so let's see. Anno looks cool. Aaaand Ive somehow never played Far Cry 4. Good month.
Nightdive are doing the Lords work. Loved getting to play Shadowman and Turok again after all those years. Looking forward to this one too! It was too hard for me as a kid, the modern touches tend to make them easier though (or maybe I just got better at games idk).
What does 25% bigger mean? Map size? Number of quests? General game length? The first was about 100hrs for me so 125hrs for the sequel? That sounds more than fine.

Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 DLC Hopes Reignited By Suspicious Steam Updates
Yes. Proper expansion with more enemy variety would be ideal, but it needs at least a hard mode for ng+.

Re: Xbox on Bringing Exclusives to PS5: The Industry Is Changing for All of Us
@Beyondclem PS3 outsold the XB360 by a about 4 million consoles worldwide. I thought the same thing as the 360 seemed way more popular in the west.

Brings "the series" to PS5? Isn't this the first game? I guess everythings a franchise these days. (Probably not Concord though.)
