@homelesscretin Spacelords was a lot of fun!

Loved Lords of Shadow, hopefully this is more GOW than Souls like.

I bought the original close to release, and I see his point. I was a good representation of a typical gamer at that time, and it did not make sense to me, I couldn't get past the second level lol.

That being said, I love the remake, platinumed it, and Bloodborne, but it took a few years for this type of game to make sense to the gaming world.

@TheFakulty Yeah it's really infuriating how badly they've handled the game and expansions.

If I hadn't bought the deluxe edition of TFS that came with this content, I'd have already stopped playing.

I don't plan on supporting the next content releases and I think a large portion of the player base feels the same. Curious to see how the next expansions do.

Marathon will be interesting. Bungie has garnered so much negative sentiment I'm going to be surprised if Marathon launches well.

@TheFakulty just those that bought this season. Oh. And it'll disappear in 4 months when the next expansion comes out.

And one of the main characters of this episode is someone who has been vaulted for years (brief comeback for a season last year) so anyone that started in the last 3 years has no context or knowledge for their storyline.

As one of the few D2 players still (barely) hanging on. This is a dumb cash grab.

My playtime has plummeted since TFS, and so has many many other players. A 20$ Star wars costume does nothing to bring up our playtime or interest.

I actually think that most of the gameplay systems hold up really well and are better than Skyrim and other systems.

I will be extremely disappointed if I can't level my acrobatics to be able to jump over buildings again.

But to be fair, some systems can use a change/tweak and on hit animations would be good.

Or we could just get a PlayStation All Stars 2, with MOBA-lite elements?

How many years has it been since that secret san Diego studio was supposedly working on Uncharted 5??

I'm still waiting!! Sony should have snagged up Tomb Raider for the pennies it sold for and just made some Tomb Raider games while they let Uncharted rest.

It always surprises me when a game misses its release window by this much, to just get up and canceled.

It had to of been decently playable if it targeted a 2023 release.

Can't wait for this if it's true! For me, no game has matched walking out of those sewers for the first time.

We've come a long way from the knockoff controllers of the PS2 era.

This looks pretty sleek imo! But I'm remembering those awful MadCatz controllers.

Surprised there was outrage in the first place.

I barely play the game, but love KZ so I immediately hopped on and bought the stuff for 10$ which is a very reasonable for crossover cosmetics in comparable games.

The more I read about it the less interested I got.

A bunch of reused assets? 45 min gameplay on repeat with just some enemy variation?

Where's the exploration and discovery and adventure that makes Souls games unique and enjoyable??

This looks fantastic. Loving the retro 80s vibe and I think they've nailed it.

Hopefully they lean into some of the grittier aspects of things like Blade Runner, but this will probably be a day 1 buy from me.

Still waiting on my next Uncharted what ever happened to that secret studio that was supposed to be working on it.

I thought that studio went under when The Last Guardian took longer than Duke Nukem Forever to make. Looks cool!

Yessss!!!! I love exploring From soft games with a friend.

After playing most of Elden Ring coop, it was very boring trying to finish it by myself. The sense of discovery in telling a friend to check this out was so much fun.

I really don't like all the companies Tencent is investing in. It doesn't seem like anything good will come out of Tencents investment into games, long term.

Makes perfect sense for Sony to be working on one alongside the PS6.

Launch an expensive console and also a streaming handheld for 1/4 of the price. If people have good internet, no need to buy the expensive console if they can't afford it - lowers the barrier to entry for a new generation of console by a lot!

PLAYSTATION ALL STARS 2

Still don't understand why this hasn't happened yet.

I don't understand how Sony can fail this badly at mobile attempts. They've been trying at this for over 10 years and have yet to show anything decent on mobile.

They must be getting some tax write off for this, right??

Otherwise it doesn't seem to make a ton of sense. They could have used the teams experience to make some other type of shooter etc? The studio clearly had talent - just bad direction, atrocious art style and late to the market

Still waiting for Rayman 4. Or release 3 Remastered for PS4/5. Being locked to PS3 is a travesty

Wow! This is awesome news! And even better that hopefully it'll be the same creative team!

10+ years will be great to show changes in AI

I liked Hulst during the PS3 era when they were pushing boundaries of the hardware with KZ2 and 3

But it seems like after HZD, they just went all in for some reason on that franchise which didn't make sense to me. And now the guy is leading all PS studios. Strange series of promotions for that guy.

Sony first party really needs to figure out a way to optimize output. Maybe more standalone DLC type of games like Miles Morales to help cover the gaps. It's just crazy we're this far into PS5 and I don't really feel like there have been any must have first party exclusives outside of the launch window

@Savage_Joe lol did you read the article?? They won't get royalties from the GAME. which they won't get anyways if they're not in it.

They don't lose any rights to their songs.

And if being in the game doesn't cause their song to get a resurgence, so what, they got a free 7500$ for doing nothing.

Like stated in the article - it's basically free exposure to a whole generation of people that never heard the song.

How many times do we see an 80s song/artist resurging when a song is used on a Netflix show?

I understand the optics of it, but realistically they're offering the artist insane reach and publicity which has an inherent value on its own. So it's not really 7500, it's considerably more

Greedfall was one of my surprise favorite games of the PS4 era.

I have a feeling it was a fluke rather than a standard for the studio moving forward.

It's a shame to see them push the studio like that after a success. Steel rising was not very good imo, and Greedfall 2 launching in early access with a burntout team sounds like disaster waiting to happen which is a shame for my most anticipated game

A remake should launch with the PS6 just like Demons Souls. Let the series rest a bit longer and in 3 or 4 years generate massive hype over the new console.

Roger Craig Smith in the first game always made me feel I was playing some first person sequel to RE5 in a good way! I may have to pick this up!

Sony should really give it a PS+ free launch or something. To get people to move from their current fleshed out hero shooters to a new unproven one, is hard enough, not to mention it also costs $$$

We are moving more and more towards a Stadia like platform. The world isn't there yet, but it's going that way.

With the size of games and the fact that many (big sellers) are online only now, it makes sense to have an online client where we log into a server and stream. No downloads, no waiting, etc.

I'm a hold out for physical media (still waiting on my BG3 copy) but I can see where we're headed. But I don't think hardware platforms with completely go away. It'll just look different.

Yes. This is my preferred way to play.

Playing Elden Ring solo is really boring to me after playing most of the game coop. Its a lot more fun yelling to each other 'woah look what I found!' and conquering things together. When playing alone, my excitement of discovery just isn't the same when I don't have my buddy to share it with.

I miss all the people that showed up at Sony E3. Shawn, Jack, Andrew, Shu, and the other dude in the 'how to share games with friends video' from PS4 announcement.

Remember the Kevin Butler ads? Those were fantastic!

These days Sony is faceless and bland. I don't understand current marketing trends at all, clearly they're doing something right. It's just boring.

I like that Sony is hitting a lower price point for their live service games.

But this game still looks pretty bad.

Way overblown. Part of the first mission was leaked plus some of the weapons, which Bungie themself have been spoiling by giving content creators early access and YT thumbnails are full of spoilers as a result.

Guess I'm buying this twice

Id love to see them get back to the basic, arcadey, handcrafted worlds of LBP1 and Tearaway. LBP1 had so much charm and fantastic music!

Saw this come through this morning, been waiting months, what's another few weeks?

Like many others. Waiting for physical release or big discount if I'm buying digital only.

Still waiting for my BG3 copy to arrive in the mail.

Bethesda was delivering great stuff back during the PS3, but really suffered from poor decisions or poor growth choices (acquiring a bunch of studios and publishing) during PS4 era.

They really fell behind in the RPG scene and need a total refresh to their approach. They were my favorite developer during PS3 and it's sad to see.

Crazy to think that it'll likely be close to 20 years between Elder Scrolls games.

@djlard that game was fantastic. Id love some more AvP

Also as a huge alien fan, I'm way too much of a chicken for this.

I'll probably get this lol

Meanwhile. RELEASE RAYMAN 3 HD ON PS5!

Never played the first one, but love the second. I'm about 30 hours in and have barely left the starting regions.

The game is fantastic, and I've never felt the need for the micro transactions. It's been blown out of proportion by people who haven't played the game.

Running from town to town isn't even that bad. You can skip the monster encounters and get places relatively quickly. Or....spend the equivalent in gold of a goblin kill to take an Ox cart....

Immortals was destined for this service before it was even launched. Hence why myself and likely many others judging by the comments never bought it. Sucks the studio suffered due to that, but that's the industry we've been trained to work with.

I love hearing that people share my love of Oblivion. For years it seemed that people felt it was the weakest of the 3 console TES games.

Still one of my favorite games ever.

I hope the recent successes of doing things differently pays off in other areas.

I love wacky side gadgets and while the Portal isn't for me, I'm glad to see stuff like it.

I hope Helldiver's success leads to investment in other AA games that aren't chasing the newest trend. Good word of mouth, fun gameplay, and non intrusive micro transactions have shown to really pay off.

Although I'm sure Sony will be dropping some marketing collaborations in there in no time.

I still don't even know of any decent games that have come out of Embracer. They really banked on having a barrage of successful AA titles but failed to really launch anything.

They just added the hoverboards and there's no ornament for that. Everyone has immediately stopped using sparrows because hoverboards are better in every way, so big oops on that.

It's a game that seems to scream F2P based on what I've seen. (Maybe due to bad marketing)

It should have at least been a budget title similarly to Helldiver's if it wanted to make a splash
