I assume they can say no more sunset cause they know it’s a matter of time before they have to move to a new game. Unless they just stop supporting expansions/seasons on PS4.
Overall really good showcase. Can’t wait for in game loadouts.
@Darude84 Demons Souls gets better. If you grab some of the 4-1 gear right away (YouTube guide for Crescent Fachion +1, Adjudicators Shield, Refenerators Ring) it makes the game very manageable but still a challenge.
Also there’s a very active discord that gives away items and help with levels/bosses.
@Flaming_Kaiser have you looked at the list?? There’s like barely any PS2/1 games available. The consoles that had games pumped out like crazy, and there’s so few and the ones that are there are kinda crap.
Sony just needs to up its Subscription game. I recently subbed and I like it, but man, the classics tier is utter garbage. Should be one tier and that’s it.
I’m an avid and well educated gamer and I get confused all the time which tier is which. I can’t imagine how confused casuals are.
It’s interesting reading comments on how broadcasters spoke 25 years ago in the UK vs now. If anyone has a YouTube video about that please reply with it! I’d be interesting in hearing more! When I watch old US shows it’s basically the same as now haha
There’s a sizeable portion of the public that only plays/buys consoles for COD.
However, as MS pushes Gamepass and remote play, it may not lead to as many Xbox console sales versus just subs to Gamepass. Although if these subs are the future that’s bad news for Sony.
Stupid Sony abandoning PS AllStars too early. Could have been a fantastic live service games in early PS4 days with DLC fighters tying into new games by Sony or 3rd party studios.
Hopefully they get Bungie involved pretty quickly. This has HUGE potential if the gameplay and modes are varied and developed.
Getting seasonal stories and overarching world changes like Destiny plus various modes like BR, Factions, Camp management, solo PvE content, etc would be REALLY GOOD.
I wonder if the colorations have begun or if they’re going to wait until it closes. I’m sure Sony wants input ASAP as they work to launch Factions 2.0 and more
Even with uncharted being TR’s main competitor - they could have leapfrogged the franchises every few years to lessen any franchise fatigue but still maintain absolute dominance in that style of game.
Seems a little late to be hiring for this position, there will always be taken acquisition but it feels like this current time frame is going to have the biggest moves for the foreseeable future.
How’s the difficulty? It looks like a fun game I want to try out soon but its not my typical style and I don’t want to get frustrated and stop plying it quickly if it’s hard or makes me use tons of items/buildcrafting to advance.
I kinda wanna play for fun/turn off my brain a bit.
I haven’t been a fan of their communication tactics but I’ve also been very out of touch with how social media/influencers work these days to get news out.
Maybe they’re more aware of how the casual audience absorbs news and this tactic works to reach those people?
I wish the names were less confusing. It just doesn’t have the same ‘ring’ or clear marketing that ‘Gamepass’ does. I have a good idea what a Gamepass is without knowing anything about it.
PlayStation Plus Premium? What does that tell me lol. It’s like Capcom and their Street Fighter Signa X Pro Flying V Guitar Edition titles.
Also I hope they continue to build the ‘classic’ library of games and not just stop where it’s at.
As a big fan of the franchise, I enjoyed it much more then I expected.
I do love these types of movies in general but there were enough nods to the games that it felt pretty good as an ‘uncharted’ movie but didn’t retread the games too much which was refreshing.
Nolan north cameo is probably my favorite cameo of all time.
Spoiler alert: My only gripe was the lack of supernatural enemies. Hopefully the sequel will follow the first game with them tho.
It’s a shame Death Stranding gets such a bad reputation. The beginning two or three chapters are a bit of a slog (and maybe a misstep on the devs part for how long it is) but after that, vehicles and combat and the different suits and such make it pretty fun.
The story is really engaging and unique. Glad I played it. Not one I’d personally replay, but I was happy for the experience and would encourage people to give it a shot (and not judge it on the opening hours)
I’m sure the negative avengers press, lack of Big Marvel film hype around release. And the fact that the character models look nothing like the big screen counterpart, really slowed the interest from casual fans (myself included)
I’m pretty excited for this. Hopefully the changes are all positives and the biggest thing they need to do is ADD content, not take away like they did with RE3. It was far too short of an experience.
Okay. So what about the immensely popular Elder Scrolls games?
Seems like a chicken fight here to see who’s gonna pull content first.
With Sony having some ammo in the form of Bungie, it’s mutually beneficial for them to be sharing some franchises cross console with all the DLC purchases. Especially as bungie goes multi-IP
@IonMagi oh I forgot about those ‘demo’ type games that came out.
Is there a reason why their output slowed? I think GT5 was due to them modeling 1000 high def cars but I would assume they’re not remodeling those every time now?

Re: Devolver Debunks Ludicrous Rumour Claiming Sony Paid to Keep Cult of the Lamb Off Xbox Game Pass
Let’s all start a rumor that Sony is making PS All Stars 2. Maybe it’ll come true then.

Block fees? Isn’t that the same as timed exclusivity rights both have been doing for ages.

Re: Rumour: Star Wars: KOTOR Remake Hit with Huge Delay
They’ll probably give it to insomniac
Re: MultiVersus (PS5) - A Worthy Super Smash Bros Rival with Much More to Come
I wish Sony did this with PS All Stars - I really think they could of had a huge success on their hands with that.
Looking forward to digging into this one tho!
Re: Lady Dimitrescu Gameplay Shown in New Resident Evil Village Trailer
Maybe this will finally nab me that merc trophy I need for the platinum
Re: Ubisoft Bins Four Games, Including Free-to-Play Ghost Recon Frontline
Hopefully one of those wasn’t Rayman 3 HD rerelease on PS5
Re: Big Destiny 2 Showcase Coming Next Month, Will Reveal What's Next
Picked this up again at WQ launch and it’s a blast compared to vanilla.
Hoping for some large scale changes to the overall sandbox coming up though as some of the content is really showing it’s age compared to other modes.
Re: Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 2 Will be Re-Released Next Week, on 20th July, for PS5, PS4
Loved the first one on GameCube and this never launched on it. Cant wait!
Re: Pac-Man World Re-Pac Brings the PS1 Platformer Back with PS5, PS4 Remake
PAC Man World 2 was one of my favorite games as a kid!! Hope they remaster that one!
I went back to play it a few years ago and it could use some control updates! Haha
Re: Sony Studio Firesprite Lets Colossal Liverpool Office
@Octane my first through was ‘let’s them go’ or something to that extent too hahaha.

I wish there would be some sort of spoiler tag in headlines and thumbnails here. This is the only gaming site I go on and I like surprises.
Re: Dragon Age: Dreadwolf Is the Official Name of BioWare's Fourth Entry
@Ryguy2784 that was the first thing I though too. The neon small line weight font looks more futuristic then something I associate with medieval.
Re: Sony 'Not at All Finished' Growing PlayStation Studios via Acquisitions
Thankfully they understand the landscape is changing and are doing what they can to keep up.
I’m sure Nintendo will always have its share of the market, but it’ll continue to be more niche then what Sony and MS will be doing in 5 or 10 years.
Re: PlayStation London Studio Seems to Be Making a Fantasy-Based Live Service Game
I’d be down for this!
Re: GreedFall 2: The Dying World Announced for 2024
I LOVED the original! Really need to get back to it for the platinum and do the DLC.
Super excited to get another experience inside this world! It has so much potential waiting to be explored!
Re: The Tomorrow Children Will Feature Community-Designed Islands in PS4 Revival
Dang, was hoping to try this out as F2P. I don’t see myself paying for this given it’s history
Re: Dying Light Dev Is Making an Open World Fantasy Action RPG
I loved Dying Light, haven’t played the second yet but this could be cool!
I hope they don’t take another 6 years or whatever it was between dying light though!
Re: Sony Shares First Look at PS Plus Extra, Premium Games
Hmm I’ve been looking forward to the PS1/2/3 list and if this is a short highlight…..dang….I’m a bit disappointed
Re: Despite FTC Investigation, Sony Expects Bungie Acquisition to Close This Year
I wonder if the colorations have begun or if they’re going to wait until it closes. I’m sure Sony wants input ASAP as they work to launch Factions 2.0 and more
Re: As Bargain Bin Tomb Raider Goes to Embracer, PlayStation Seeks Acquisition Expert

Re: Elden Ring's Platinum Trophy Stat Is Shockingly High
I’m always shocked at how high many platinums are. Even 5% seems high for a lot of games that require you to do more then just beat the story.
Almost everyone I know don’t bother going for platinums.
Re: Weird West (PS4) - Ambitious Top-Down RPG Comes Close to Greatness

Re: Reaction: PS Plus, PS Now's Makeover a Necessary and Positive Step for Sony

Re: PS Plus Premium's Classic Games Look 'Great' on PS5, PS4, But Sony's Saying Nothing About the Selection
These names are confusing and dumb.
Also it should have been just ‘add ons’. I honestly only want the classic game streaming and would forgo the PS4/5 stuff
Re: Uncharted Is One of the Highest Grossing Video Game Movies of All Time

Re: Round Up: Tiny Tina's Wonderlands Reviews Reveal a Refreshing Take on Borderlands Formula
Borderlands 2 was so good at the time. But I just didn’t think 3 held up to todays standards in gaming compared to other shooters on the market.
This does look cool tho and I hope to give it a try at some point down the road!
Re: Dozens of New PS5, PS4 Games from Ubisoft Allegedly Outed
Rayman 4
Or a remake/re release of Rayman 2 and 3.
3 was ported to the PS3 so idk why they didn’t port it over to the PS4 yet.
Re: Hideo Kojima's New Project Getting Lots of Sony Love

Re: Crunchyroll Absorbing All Funimation Content for Ultimate Anime Library
I hope it’s an optional add on to PS+.
As someone who doesn’t watch anime I have no interest in seeing my PS+ cost slightly rise due to anime.
Re: EA Sports Hints FIFA Has Been an Impediment As It Looks Set to Break Ties
Do FIFA players really ask for better product placement in their games?!?
Lol adidas vs Nike, seems like EA just wants to be able to charge for ads in their games to more companies
Re: Call of Duty Will Take Time Off Next Year
Wow a year off??? Are three studios still rotating on the games?
Re: In Traditional Square Enix Style, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Underperformed
I’m sure the negative avengers press, lack of Big Marvel film hype around release. And the fact that the character models look nothing like the big screen counterpart, really slowed the interest from casual fans (myself included)
Re: The Universe Is the Limit for PS5, PS4 Survival Game No Man's Sky
I’m shocked they’re still releasing large free content for the game with no way to get $$ besides new sales.
Breath of fresh air in todays industry.
Re: Could PS3, PS Vita Closures Be on the Cards After Wii U, 3DS Announcements?
If they can relaunch some sort of emulation with PS Plus to allow for purchases of these old games or streaming then, then shut ‘em down!
Re: Rumour: Resident Evil 4 Remake Making Changes, Announcement Could Be Soon
I’m pretty excited for this. Hopefully the changes are all positives and the biggest thing they need to do is ADD content, not take away like they did with RE3. It was far too short of an experience.
Re: Disney Speedstorm is Mario Kart with Mickey Mouse, Mulan
Like everyone else, was excited until I saw F2P. Will still give it a shot, but not as excited haha
Re: Microsoft Says Call of Duty and Activision Games Will Keep Releasing on PlayStation Beyond Current Deals
Okay. So what about the immensely popular Elder Scrolls games?
Seems like a chicken fight here to see who’s gonna pull content first.
With Sony having some ammo in the form of Bungie, it’s mutually beneficial for them to be sharing some franchises cross console with all the DLC purchases. Especially as bungie goes multi-IP
Re: So, Beyond Good & Evil 2 Is Probably Never Happening
I remembering being so hyped at that gameplay demo and their vision - even tho it did seem like an unrealistic vision.
After this long, it’s probably for the best to axe it and Move on
Re: Gran Turismo Sophy Is an AI Quicker Than Pro Drivers
@IonMagi oh I forgot about those ‘demo’ type games that came out.
Is there a reason why their output slowed? I think GT5 was due to them modeling 1000 high def cars but I would assume they’re not remodeling those every time now?
