4-6 players has me hopefully it’s not another asymmetrical type of deal. Hope it can celebrate the franchise and put iconic hero’s and villains against each other in scenarios like Outbreak.
I did enjoy Resistance for the first two or so weeks but once Masterminds became leveled up and you got a noob on your team, it was miserable.
I had to quit playing PVZ Battle for neighborville for this exact reason. I loved the game but then it started to become a chore for me to complete dailies etc and I started to get stressed out by it!
I’ve switched to SP only games mainly now because I know I’ll feel the same way with so many games going the live service/battle pass route.
3 hours of my life gone to trailers for kinda mediocre games.
Then quickly shoved in awards for 10 min...
I def overhyped myself for it this year tho. I thought with the lack of conferences this past summer there would be some cool announcements, especially with PS5 now out.
This is the game that makes me want a PS5 in March versus next winter - but even I’m unsure if I’d pay that upon release.
Fantastic article and I hope well written articles like this can help some change happen with regards to how Sony prices games - having a spectrum of prices would be nice, and unproven new IP without a huge amount of hype shouldn’t be priced to fail at 70$
It stinks this happened to you, but for others that had the same thing occur, it’s good to have someone with a bit of PR weight to their name in the same boat.
If I had this and called Amazon US they’d be like ‘sorry, can’t help, anything else I can do for you today?’
Jim Ryan got the job because the last dude move into heading up PS Now - to me, that screams they have BIG plans for that to be the future of PlayStation, or else why would you demote yourself.
I remember when I had to wait a month to play any new maps for multiplayer or zombies back on the PS3. It wasn’t fun, but this is just dumb. Like, who cares about stupid freaking weapon slots, Sony needs to put this money elsewhere.
I haven’t tried out the web store, but I REALLY like the store through the App. Way easier to use and find what I wanted (at least for the ways I use it)
I was a GameCube kid but I really did envy my PS2 friends! Haha Dark Alliance 2 never coming to GameCube caused me to buy a PS2 on eBay a few years ago haha. Now I get to enjoy all those classics!
I’m pretty excited. Hopefully I can redeem it without owning a PS5. Really wanna play bugsnax when I eventually get one (but not something I’d buy haha)
I haven’t seen an Apple Ad go by so fast like that before (then again I only see ads on Hulu), but the ‘controller sold separately’ pretty much nails it.
I don’t understand how it takes that many studios to make GTA online content plus work on (presumably) one game at a time. Unless the studios are insanely tiny.
Wow - last time I’ve played a sports game was when crowds were pixelated cardboard cutouts that all moved the same way hahaha. We’ve come a long way since the GameCube days.
Have they talked about how many of the buildings are explotable? Besides TES series, I’m always annoyed that I can’t enter most buildings (GTA, Ubisoft games etc)
@Salohcin I never could either - but I managed to beat Bloodborne a few years ago. The best part of that game is the summoning bell. I loved the lore and gameplay, but personally never enjoyed getting wrecked by bosses, so I’d go on Reddit and get someone to help with use of the summoning bell.
I’ve had people call me out that it’s ‘cheating’ but whatever, I had a ton of fun doing all the rest of the areas by myself. The generic enemies aren’t TOO hard after you get the hang of it. Plus I went back and helped other people with bosses once i beat the game and was leveled up!

Re: Returnal Gets Brand New PS5 Gameplay Trailer, Details on Combat
I’d pay 70$ for it. Shame I can’t find a PS5.
Re: David Jaffe Has 'Zero Knowledge' on Cross-Gen God of War: Ragnarok
What has this dude been up to in recent years? Still making games?
Re: Game of the Year: Best PS5, PS4 Story of 2020
I haven’t played 13 Sentinels but keep hearing amazing things about it.

Re: Reaction: Sony's New PS Store Is Actively Preventing Fans from Spending Money
@Voltan Weird, I went on before posting my (earlier) comment to check and saw a bunch of the sale items. Maybe certain regions have more issues idk.
Re: Reaction: Sony's New PS Store Is Actively Preventing Fans from Spending Money
Use the App, it works great!

Re: All the Winners at The Game Awards 2020
It’s crazy to look back and see how well Sony did year after year this generation.
Re: Keanu Reeves the Latest Presenter Revealed for The Game Awards 2020
Okay. That list of guests is so random but makes me have to watch.
Gotta wonder if Eddie Vedder is presenting a Last of Us award - hope he plays Future Days
Re: Xbox Series X|S Runs PS2 Games Better Than PS5
I would happily buy the Series S or X or whatever if I could turn it into a PS2/3 emulator.
I just bought a B/C PS3 on eBay since mine took a dump but who knows how long it’ll last!
Re: Intriguing RPG Greedfall Is Coming to PS5, Also Getting an Expansion
YES!!! Picked this up over a summer sale and it’s been one of my favorites! Highly recommend!
Re: Soapbox: Having My PS5 Launch Day Nerfed By Amazon

Re: PlayStation Store Black Friday Sale Has Awesome PS5, PS4 Deals
Greedfall is back to 15$ - I bought it last time it was on sale and it’s become one of my favorite games of the generation!
If you like choice/story RPGs I highly recommend! Graphically it could use polish but if that stuff doesn’t bother you, you’ll love it!
Re: Sony on PS5's Response to Game Pass: There Is News to Come, But Not Today
Jim Ryan got the job because the last dude move into heading up PS Now - to me, that screams they have BIG plans for that to be the future of PlayStation, or else why would you demote yourself.
Re: Project 007 Targeting Modern Systems, Will Run on Glacier Engine
I wonder if the character model will be based on the new bond, one of the classics or a totally new model.
Re: Sony Believes PS5 Game Pricing Is Fair, Denies It Considered Charging More
@get2sammyb I think it’ll depend if it’s a spoiler heavy title (GOW2) versus a lighter game (Sackboy).
I know I’d grumble, but pay that for something like GOW2 but will certainly wait on other titles until they’re on sale!
Re: A Bunch of Free Costumes for Sackboy: A Big Adventure Are Available Now
Cant wait to play this!! Looks like it brings back the magic of 1 and 2!
Re: Sony Spices Up Social Media with Twitter Like Button Takeover
Time to change the PushSquare heart button icon!
Re: The Game Awards 2020 Nominees Will Be Announced Next Week
Even if you hate the story. TLOU2 had the some of the most polished and amazing gameplay ever.
Hope it does well, but I’m in the camp that loved how much the story messed with my emotions.
Re: Rocket League Won't Get Meaningful Upgrades on PS5, Unlike Xbox Series X
@Jarobusa the Series X is, but the Series S isn’t, and that’s getting the patch, right? (At a stated future patch)
Re: Here's Why DualSense PS5 Controller's Face Buttons Don't Have Their Iconic Colours
It would be cool for another ‘anniversary’ console like they did for the PS4. And bring back some iconic color schemes
Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War's PS5, PS4 Bonuses Are a Bit Embarrassing
I remember when I had to wait a month to play any new maps for multiplayer or zombies back on the PS3. It wasn’t fun, but this is just dumb. Like, who cares about stupid freaking weapon slots, Sony needs to put this money elsewhere.
Re: Sony Adds Game Names to New PlayStation Store on Web Browser
I haven’t tried out the web store, but I REALLY like the store through the App. Way easier to use and find what I wanted (at least for the ways I use it)
Re: PS5 Exclusive Returnal Has a Simple But Effective Use for 3D Audio
I can’t wait to hear way more about this game. I hope it’s a standard Sony spring launch.
Re: Sackboy: A Big Adventure Trophies Tease a Fulfilling Platinum
I love that Sony is branching out with Sackboy. Hope we can get new and fresh takes every few years like Mario games.
Re: Ghost of Tsushima a 'Commercial Delight' Beyond Sony's Expectations
I hope they can expand to work on more then one game at a time. Really want an inFAMOUS follow up, or remaster of the first two
Re: Talking Point: Happy 20th Birthday, PlayStation 2
I was a GameCube kid but I really did envy my PS2 friends! Haha Dark Alliance 2 never coming to GameCube caused me to buy a PS2 on eBay a few years ago haha. Now I get to enjoy all those classics!
Re: PS Plus November 2020 PS4 Games Announced, PS5 Game Bugsnax Included
I’m pretty excited. Hopefully I can redeem it without owning a PS5. Really wanna play bugsnax when I eventually get one (but not something I’d buy haha)
Re: Tom Holland Receives the Real Nathan Drake's Approval in New Uncharted Movie Set Photos
@Bobobiwan I’m pretty excited for the movie too. Out of anyone they could have gotten to play Drake I’m glad it’s Holland.
I still don’t understand why Marky Mark is in this thing, but at least he can be his grumpy self as Sully and not ruin Drake haha.
Re: Tom Holland Receives the Real Nathan Drake's Approval in New Uncharted Movie Set Photos
I still love the Nathan Fillion one.

Re: Ghost of Tsushima Dev Looking for New Narrative Writer, Ideally with 'Knowledge of Feudal Japanese History'
Looks like I’m not alone but I’m also disappointed they might not be making another Infamous yet.
I haven’t played GOT yet, and heard good things about it! But Infamous is just too much fun to let go of.
Re: Random: What if Apple Made PS5? Fan Trailer Finds Out
I haven’t seen an Apple Ad go by so fast like that before (then again I only see ads on Hulu), but the ‘controller sold separately’ pretty much nails it.
Re: Killzone Fans Think PS5's UI Is Trying to Tell Them Something
Bring back KZ2’s multiplayer. Plus the jet packs of 3 cause those were fun.
Re: PS5 In-Game Hints and Tips System Requires PS Plus Subscription
Hope it actually gets implemented in many games! It’s a cool idea, but don’t see devs putting resources into it.
Re: Spider-Cat Is the Reason to Buy Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales
This actually convinced me to buy this game. I’m shocked.
Re: Rockstar Acquires Ruffian Games, Rebands Rockstar Dundee
I don’t understand how it takes that many studios to make GTA online content plus work on (presumably) one game at a time. Unless the studios are insanely tiny.
Re: Looks Like Genshin Impact Has Been a Gigantic Hit
@Nepp67 it is when you’re trying to get your wife to play it but she needs to pour like 10 hours into it before we can play together.
Re: Looks Like Genshin Impact Has Been a Gigantic Hit
It’s cool, but not a fan of locking co op behind a grinding play wall.
Re: You May Not Be Able to Enjoy PlayLink Games on PS5
I don’t understand why Sony put resources into this in the first place, then never promote or push it.
Re: World Record Trophy Hunter Hakoom Has Hit Level 999 Already
I remember reading an article years ago where this guys apparently has a day job and family too....how???? Haha
Re: PlayStation Trophy System to Be Updated Today on PS4, Also Coming to PS5
Man they really made the platinum trophy look dumb
Re: This Is How NBA 2K21 Looks on PS5
Wow - last time I’ve played a sports game was when crowds were pixelated cardboard cutouts that all moved the same way hahaha. We’ve come a long way since the GameCube days.
Re: Leaked Cyberpunk 2077 Map Reveals the Whole of Night City

Re: Seeing The Last of Us 2 at 4K, 60FPS Makes Us Pray for a PS5 Upgrade
@StonyKL I’m going for the platinum too, and I agree. Some of the cutscenes i skip - mainly cause it’s too emotionally draining!! Hahaha
Re: Neil Druckmann Visits 'Insane' Uncharted Movie Set with Tom Holland
Tom Holland is really likable and should hopefully portray a good drake! Not too convinced that Wahlburg was the right move, but time will tell.
Re: Destruction AllStars on PS5 Finally Detailed, But No Gameplay Trailer
Sounds like something that could be an enjoyable PS+ freebie at some point down the road.
Re: This Is What a Bloodborne PS5 Remaster Could Look Like
@Salohcin I never could either - but I managed to beat Bloodborne a few years ago. The best part of that game is the summoning bell. I loved the lore and gameplay, but personally never enjoyed getting wrecked by bosses, so I’d go on Reddit and get someone to help with use of the summoning bell.
