Re10? You mean RE14 with how this series cycles characters and drags out stories haha.

I love RE, but c'mon. Give me a proper Chris or Jill game. It's been ages. (I don't count the little Chris snips in 7 and 8).

I'd love for some more Revelations games to hit the side characters some more.

'1000 Creation Credits'. So....mods aren't free on PS5??? What is this nonsense Bethesda.

I guess this is old news, but what a load of crap.

Looking forward to this. Hoping it's a reasonable price point. Only 9.99 on Steam so $20 or so on console seems fair.

I'm a massive scardy cat. But I forced myself to play Grace in first person to get that first playthru experience.

I liked that there really weren't any cheap jumpscares in 9. And the few that were there, were very anticipated for anyone who's been playing RE games over the years.

They did get me on the office scene with Victor....I anticipated it when first going in there, seeing those blinds....totally forgot to slow down and think entering that room for the 5th time lol.

Super pumped for this one!

I LOVED the first one, but was so disappointed that they changed up the combat system for 2.

Maybe it's better now but what I saw during EA really turned me off.

I'm convinced if this was made by anyone other than Bungie it would have gotten a lot more sustained hate.

@TheSwitchBit How did 7 and 8 lose you??

Sure, 8 is more action focused (but has some good horror bits) but 7 was praised for being survival horror.

The remasters have been doing a fantastic job at bringing in new players.

Also the move from numbers in the titles likely helps, doesn't make people feel that they need to play the 8 precious games to jump into Requiem.

I'm sure it'll always skew older, but I think they're doing a much better job than other legacy franchises.

I can't believe it's been 13 years since Second Son.

Would love to see this as a PS Essential offering next month. Give a boost to the game and DLC.

I still buy physical.

My argument of 'not having to download a game when I want to play it' is pretty much dead since most games need a patch or update when I put in an old disc anyway.

This is pretty typical of most extraction shooters, right?

Sounds bad to those of us not interested in this type of game. But I've heard positive reactions from friends that like extraction shooters.

Id be fine with leaving Nathan Drake in retirement and focusing on the broader world or new characters.

REALLY wish Sony would have scooped up the Tomb Raider IP and went that direction with treasure hunting games.

Barlog has been working on this directly after 2018 launched, right?

Seems like we're getting something significantly different, similar to the jump from Ascension to 2018, which would be great. The formula wasn't getting stale to me yet, and I wish Ragnarok was 2 games, but I'm happy to see some forward movement from the studio.

Kinda surprised to see the studio still working on the same franchise for 20 years though, while every other Sony studio changes over time. RIP Uncharted.

The poll will be skewed due to the nature of this site, but I think we all see this as a problem.

The next generation of kids has it rough. Predatory practices coming at them from every angle for their time and money.

It's the constant load screens between indoor and outdoor that kills me.

Let me be a stealthy character and lockpick a door or window and sneak into the house, seeing what the character inside is doing.

I generally hold out for physical game releases (Waited for BG3 to go physical) but I see the writing on the wall and I'm growing OK with it.

Honestly PS+ has conditioned me for this future as 95% of games I've played this generation, I've gotten for free from the service.

This is the type of AA game I like to see!

I'd love for these shadow drops to ACTUALLY shadow drop and people involved to stop teasing things or leaking things.

That being said. It is impressive, that if true, a GOW game has managed to stay relatively firmly in 'rumor' territory.

This looks neat!

Guess I'm old enough for PS2 era graphics to be 'retro' and cool for a new game release.

Watch it sell less due to less PS marketing push.

Honesty I hope Sony stops spending money on FF. I don't see it as a big system sellers as it was in the past. Doesn't really do a great job of bringing in new fans either.

No way it's PS6. Sony needs the massive install base to move units. It'll be the swan song for PS5 like TLOU and TLOU2 was.

It's insane ND spent the entire console life working on this.

It is a bit barebones on content. I get leaving things for content drops, but if there are modes with more players on a map.....I think they'd better drop that ASAP

Played one match so far. It was well made and I enjoyed it.

However its clearly meant for the sweaty crowd, of which I am not. So my time will be limited.

I was disappointed at the lack of AI enemies. I also think being more 3v3v3v3 or more players would have been better.

Not sure why everyone is slamming it tho. Classic internet beating up on the thing popular to beat up on. It's not bad by any means.

Isn't their profit margin larger for Digital?

Doubt they care about spoilers. But with a game selling this many copies at launch, getting a bigger cut going digital makes a lot of sense, even if it's only a month delay to physical.

Absolutely loved the first game, and was super excited for this, but the EA really quashed my hopes.

It's a shame they didn't refine the gameplay of the original.

It's impressive seeing older games on the list, as 10+ years ago a lot less places awarded GOTY anyways.

So in some sense it's a silly list as the quantity of available awards goes up each year. Maybe we can adjust awards for inflation lol.

Sounds like a watering down of the Sony brand, as it'll get slapped onto $100 TVs at Walmart.

Suing for under a million is surprising, can't believe Ubisoft wouldn't have just settled before it got to this. I'm sure the lawyer fees will be way more than this by the end.

Can't believe how far Ubisoft has fallen. Had some great games 10+ years ago and actually took some risks with stuff like For Honor, Rayman side scrollers, etc.

Still holding out hope for Rayman 3 HD port. Or remake of Rayman Arena. Such great games.

So freaking excited for this. Looks like they've really beefed up the combat system, which already felt amazing in 4.

I've been looking forward to this since the first trailer. But also heard mixed things, so I'll probably wait for a sale, but really excited it finally made it over to PS!

I'm sure F5 was in storyboarding for years at this point. It's not like Bethesda wasn't going to work on that eventually.

With MS's now pulling the strings I'd be surprised if ES6 and FO5 take as long as starfield did. They want their studios pumping out games for game pass.

This is definitely the first year of PS5 that I'm excited for and also nervous how I'll have time to play the games!

Pragmata, RE9, 007, Control 2, Wolverine, Tomb Raider, GTA6 and a few others that I'm sure I'm forgetting.

Retiring on a high note after launching a highly successful game. Great way to leave the industry!

Also glad to see it was planned and transitioned. Now to get SP to staff up and work on a bit more.

Resident Evil is one of the few 'horror games' with mass appeal. They've moved into action enough times to draw in a large audience that will buy it, even if it's a more horror focused title. I think this is just marketing to try and appeal to everyone but the game will play just like every other game since 4.

I'm sure Grace will be kicking butt just like Ethan was by the end of RE7.

Control 1 was such a surprise hit for me. One of my favorite games of the last few years, so I'm pretty pumped for this!

2026 shaping up to be a fantastic year in gaming

This looks fantastic, that's small gameplay snippet looks like a great followup to RE4R.

I hadn't heard of the Mercinaries leak. Hopefully they nail that, the bonus offerings have felt lackluster since RE7.

Raid mode was fantastic, RE5 and 6 Mercinaries was fantastic. 8's and the remakes bonus modes just fell flat for me, outside of trophy hunting.

Last time he over hyped a 'totally new genre' it turned out to be fetch quests the game.

I know some people loved it, and I'm sure this game will be well produced, but this guy is a master of overhype.

It wouldn't feel so bad, if Sony had teams work on smaller 'indie' style games in addition to the multi year blockbusters.

Naughty Dog not releasing a new game on PS5 is absolute insanity.

Still waiting for that secret studio that was supposed to be working on Uncharted to give me more Uncharted!

This article reads like a joke fanfic. Or someone making fun of collabs.

I can't believe this is real.

It's probably more that MarkScan is helping to bolster its status to Sony than Sony directly trying to purge it.

If I was MarkScan this is a great sales/perception opportunity to maintain a good contract with Sony.

Small scale, highly visible project that no one REALLY cares all that much about.

@CrispyMango92 Exactly how I felt finishing DS1 lol. I kept thinking it was over and was ready to get on with my day, only to have more cutscenes haha.

So they basically adopted the Bungie store?

Unlock triumps, buy pins and jackets. Wait months for a messed up order to arrive.

It's crazy to me that MS is taking advantage of the Dual sense...
And Bungie still hasn't implemented it into Destiny 2.

FBC should have been free to play - I guess it was on PS Extra - but still. A relaunch on PS Plus or Full F2P when they revamped the start would have injected life into the game.

I have a hard time understanding developers who try to break into this live service market, with a premium priced product. There seem to be more failures than successes.

I'd love for Sony to outsource a remaster of 1 and 2.

I really enjoyed the open beta matches as well, even tho I stink at competitive multiplayer games.

Im not sold on buying it at $40, though. We'll have to see what else it can offer. Delta Force has a great extraction mode for the wonderful price of free - granted it's not as atmospheric as Arc is.

@LogicStrikesAgain It's not as terrible as it seems to hop into as a new player.

The new systems make it somewhat easier for new players and they had generally streamlined creating builds, although I'm not entirely sure how easy/difficult getting a specific exotic is after the latest update.

The biggest downside is, unlike most live service games, this one deletes old content - so some weapons are unobtainable, the story is basically non existent because it's mostly deleted, and a ton of activities are gone or have low player counts because of the new implementation of the 'Portal'
