I’m like you.. it’s a cool bond when you can play together with your kids.. Sackboy was quite fun too. To me it makes games more enjoyable when you can play with them..
I grew up playing couch co-op with my friends.. there isn’t a whole lot of that anymore. But my daughter is 8 and she loves Astrobot, and It Takes Two.

I don’t know much about the game either.. if it was to be played with split screen co-op I would like to play it.

Super Smash Brothers is super fun.. I played it since the N64.. SSB Melee on GameCube was probably my favorite with Ultimate close behind..
Sony did come out with PlayStation All Stars Battle Royal on the PS3 and it was ok. So there is room for these type of games without being flooding one type of genre.

Well I want them to succeed for the fact that I don’t want to see anymore layoffs from Bungie..

I might get this game for me and my daughter and see how it is. I try to be optimistic like I mentioned earlier..
It’s something different. How many MOBA do you see released in a year? Hardly any.
What makes SSB so fun is that its characters that we know and love on Nintendo..
This obviously isn’t apples to apples, but I do try to remain optimistic.

Most these games were planned to come to PS5 before the publishers were bought out by Microsoft.. Starfield was canned, not seeing it being announced for PS5 yet. HellBlade 2 was already coming to the PS5 before they got bought out.. I mean it came out on PS4..
Microsoft can’t survive because their fan base has dwindled down to a fraction of what it once was. GamePass isn’t taking off like they had planned.
So best alternative is to put the games that were going to be multiplatform anyway back to where it can sell more to make the money you needed to make to offset all the billions of dollars you spent.

Buying up a huge part of the gaming industry didn’t bode well for them.
Microsoft should just become a publisher and offer gamepass at this point.

I miss seeing interviews with Ted Price.. I will miss his creativity such as his work on Resistance Fall of Man.. I loved the Spider-Man games but I’m afraid that there will be Marvel fatigue with all these games coming out and I wish we had something new and original. And Ted has always had a creative and innovative approach to do something different. Ted Price, the best to you my man, you deserve it.

Team Asobi should be involved in it.. that’s the dev that should been in the first place.
PlayStation characters would been a nice addition.
This Fortnite character layout just don’t look and I don’t know the reason why devs are going that route. The Horizon multiplayer game was rumored to be like that and it’s just not very appealing to be honest.

I like the car to be honest. I’m just not a huge electric car embracer.. I would have one as a second car. It’s nicer than most electric cars when looking from the technology and the functionality standpoint.
But yes 100k for a car is really too much to ask for an electric car that is meant to be an everyday vehicle.
Chevrolet Silverado RST EV and
Hummer 1st Edition both have 3 motors and the offering a lot more horsepower/ torque. The Chevrolet driving 440 miles on a charge.
Those are in $100k range which still is a lot to ask for.

I’ve been wanting a Warhawk game for so long now.. I’ve been having hope for this since 2012..
For the love of all that is holy.. just come through with it. This was your answer for a fun multiplayer title for all these years..
It still needs to be skill based not pay to win. But make it happen.. please.

Motorstorm will a nice but make it more like the first.
Resistant reboot would be nice.. RFOM was so good..
Socom.. don’t make me say anything else..

Jak and Daxter obviously, Dark Cloud, I’m sure there a more ps2 titles that I would love to see remake or sequel to if I wanted to keep going.

I’m not all into acquisitions but Arrowhead studios would have been a great fit for them.
I mean they would have made a really good Warhawk remake.. playing HellDivers 2 gave me some of that level of fun I had back then..

But obviously I would want them to be at liberty to create their own games.

My finest gaming experience was the PS3 era.. of course I loved the PS2 era and there are plenty of games that I wish they brought back.
Resistance Fall of Man was the best weapon layout of any game at the time. And the 40 player TDM was always fun and CTF was a thrill.. every gun had its own specialty.

This leads me to Warhawk on PS3.. not a spiritual successor like Starhawk, although the build and battle was quite nice. But Warhawk was the best experience I’ve had for a long time on the PS3.
Huge maps or small maps they were so much fun.. they really left a great game in the past..

And of course Socom. That can be their live service game that they are looking for. Call
Of Duty is beginning to get long in the tooth and their anti cheat is just letting everything in.
Socom can be Sony’s COD answer if they would just put the effort. They have a huge install base of these titles and they are just wanting to play the games that made them fall in love with PlayStation again..

Have it release same day on PC. PS5 and PC really don’t compete.
But when you look at FF7 Remake, it was released when the majority of people were home on lockdown. Console gaming was through the roof.. that and it was the long anticipated release from the PS3. Its tech demo/ game reveals for ps3 was from 2005..

The game was a great game I enjoyed Rebirth. But it’s kind of hard to think that it being console exclusive to PlayStation for so long that that’s the reason it may not have met their expectations.. when in all honesty its just because 2024 is a lot different than 2020.. the game industry was surging pretty good on all fronts.

I really don’t understand Microsoft timed exclusives.. Phil Spencer complains about Sony doing this but they actually have a lot larger audience. But it’s not that big of a deal.

I had a feeling they would be the ones to reveal their new game and man am i so happy they did. When I seen their first trailer, the Naughty Dog emblem I was like oh yea… but it was just the PC version of Last of Us 2.. and so I was kind of bummed out. So glad that they shown this tonight.
The best part of the night other than Astro Bot getting incredible recognition and Game of the Year.

I loved playing onimusha on ps2.. i can honestly say it’s been missed.

I hope the deal goes through so the company can remain Japanese.
It’s crazy that Microsoft of all people were interested in buying them out. I’m sure they wanted their greasy hands on FromSoftware. I think Sony is a good buyer. They tend to do better not gutting the company. With Bungie they had a billion dollars just to retain the developers. Even though they laid off it wasn’t near as bad as Microsoft’s layoff with Bethesda and Activision employees.

@LogicStrikesAgain
Yea I understand it sucks being gamers with the waiting game. Back during the launch of the PS3 I only had a few titles and I played the fire out of Resistance:FoM, that was some major fun multiplay with all the different weapons. Motorstorm came out in the last quarter of 06, there was some other games in between. But I had to really wait until 2007 for the onslaught of games to begin.. Warhawk, Folklore, Cod4, and Uncharted etc. The floodgates begin to open. And I say that to say this. PS3 was hard to dev for at first and PS5 it seems like it had a lot of great titles to come out then but the pace has been a lot differently.
This gen had great years but just fewer in between.Obviously it’s not over but I just wish it had a lot more depth. I’d liked have AA first party games instead of like 6 years in the making AAAA first party titles to play until the AAAA games released.

@LogicStrikesAgain

As I mentioned they made two remasters. They have two dev teams. It’s ok to want to see what they’re cooking. It would be nice to see a trailer in 2025 or a timeline.
During PS3 era they released Uncharted in late 2007, Uncharted 2 was in 2009, and 3 came out in 2011. Last of Us was released in 2013

During PS4 era Last of Us released in 2014 Uncharted 4 came out in 2016
Last of Us 2 2020
That’s the last original titles.

PS5 had two remasters 2022 and 2024.
So of course people are eager to see a new title.
Trust me I know the whole dev timeline has prolonged to over 4-6 years. I get it and I understand the Factions 2 was dropped. But a lot of people weren’t expecting just to have remasters at this point.

It’ll be 2025 and Naughty Dog still hasn’t announced their next title. I know it’s coming but just realized it’s been over 4 years now since the PS5 launched. Had two nice remakes but I’ve been anxiously waiting to hear about their next game.
Also Jade Ramond’s Haven Studios, I haven’t heard anything about them in a long time. I really hope their games succeeds.

I’m not a fan of Tencent, I don’t see that doing Ubisoft any good, but it’ll probably happen unfortunately.. Tencent is going to try to buy their way to the top..

I wish Ubisoft could to find away to bring back their magic from the past without a takeover.. PS2/Xbox-PS3/360 era were their more prominent years that I remember with Splinter Cell, Ghost Recon, and Prince of Persia to name a few.

This game was a delight. It was one of the games that my daughter loved playing with me, and we beat it together. Good times. I love couch co-op. Really looking forward to this new project they got.

@RoomWithaMoose

Hmmnn.. I tried to look for it a little bit but I couldn’t find it.. I did see where Google is being probed by a state elected AG for censorship back in October. And there have been statements made of them in the past of them leaning towards a certain political affiliation over another. From people who’s worked there and also just peoples opinions.
Some articles are opinion based, but if I see anything about what you mentioned I will be open minded to it.

@RoomWithaMoose

Can you site when he said he would limit free speech?

And how is it a cop out when I just don’t want to go back and forth? I mean I’m a grown man, I just don’t like wasting my time with arguing with someone who is closed off to their opinion.
I stated that you and i can disagree and I’m fine with that. And that’s weird ? Ok🤷🏾‍♂️

@RoomWithaMoose

Look I’m not going tit for tat. It’s ok if you disagree with me and we can move on. I mean I’m not going to die because you don’t agree with me.
What I mentioned were things that would cause harm to someone. Those things would not be classified as free speech. A true threat can be prosecuted by law.

Voicing your beliefs and opinions are considered free speech. I mean just because you don’t agree with me I’m not going to silence you.. that’s your right and that’s fine. That’s what I’m referring to.

But I don’t want to waste my day going back and forth with this. Have a good day and we can like PlayStation stuff and be fine. That’s normal to have disagreeing discussions and still be civil.

@RoomWithaMoose
Lol oh my.. you’re really digging to say that. I think threats are not considered a protected act. Someone can obviously sue and win in court. That’s the categories I’m referring to. I’m not censoring anything. I’m just stating what is protected and what’s not. To cause harm is not a protected right. But I guess if you want to play dumb I won’t stop you.

@Devils_Pinky
I mean it’s crazy.. I can have a conversation with someone who has different opinions and views I have. But the same won’t be done if you disagree with a certain narrative or party.

@RoomWithaMoose

You’re reading too much into something. Never said I admired Musk. I just find it funny how he is a problem now since he has backed a different candidate. I mean people will try to cancel Joe Rogan next.. it’s crazy.

And yes social media does have first amendment rights it was ruled by the Supreme Court. I mean of course if there is someone participating in incitement, defamation, fraud, obscenity, fighting words, and threats.. those actions aren’t protected.

@MattBoothDev

You’re really paranoid… but I’m not going to lose any sleep over it. Cry me a river. I’ll play you a violin. 🎻

I have a love hate relationship with COD. I played this game a little bit and it was ok but it’s hard to beat Call of Duty movement. If someone just made a DMZ mission based/ PVP shooter I would pay top dollar for that. I have met so many friends who have played it and hate that they’re not bringing it back.

I wish Ubisoft could get back to their ps2/xbox and PS3/360 era swag. Because the games I played from them recently just feel unfinished.

It’s crazy how Elon gets brought up in this lol. He bought it and wanted to protect free speech and so he did. I thought that’s the point of social media. Not having the media silenced by deleting stories about a laptop just for starters or pushing one sided views.. Now he’s a problem lol.
Hopefully this new one would remain nuetral in that aspect.

He said he still want to be in the gaming industry. I hope he can start something of his own. He will leave big shoes to feel. Congrats on your next endeavor.

The games that I wait for are the ones that I buy from the store. I usually save the space for the games in the PlayStation catalog or if it’s a discounted game I’d get digital.

Their excuse for not having one on the Pro was the expense. Saying that a lot of companies don’t make them anymore. I think it will be a mistake if they make the next console all digital with the disc drive sold separately.

What partly made the PSP so great to me was its own library. Obviously streaming would be the new norm, but something else is needed to make it work for me.

Well maybe Sony doesn’t have to buy Bandai Namco now. I knew that was rumored but didn’t happen. Even though they were one of the biggest publishers in gaming. I’m glad that Sony doesn’t go the route that Microsoft did and try to monopolize the gaming market but rather make deals and encourage business partnerships.
If it does have something to do with FromSoftware..

I haven’t played the first, but it kind of reminds me of Guild Wars. Can someone tell me how it was? Being a Korean Developer I’m sure that some of the past devs may worked at NCSoft. This is nice looking to be honest. I hope it is good as its revealed to be.
NCSoft is supposed to be working with Sony on a game or two. I’m also curious to see what they will be.

I was trying to figure out how much storage that had. Thanks for putting this up because I couldn’t find it anywhere.
I’ll be getting one even though $700 is still a lot of money these days. My PS5 was stolen while on vacation so I was trying to hold out and see how much this was going to be. I’ll be getting this and an $80 disk drive I guess if the scalpers don’t try to ruin it again. I’m going to be broke by this, and the pulse earbuds I’ve been wanting to get. Plus one to get a new iPhone and my daughter wants a new iPhone. I guess I’ll have to work some more OT.

This guy is just complaining. He is on the other side of success and he is trying to make it make sense.
Xbox has been around 2001-2002.
That’s over 22 years of marketing for Xbox. There was a time when Xbox had momentum and that was during the early and midway through the 360’s life cycle.
That guy may have not been there to experience that but they gave Sony a run for their money. Even over here in the US Microsoft had all the major sponsorships in entertainment. EA sports was big and sporting events had Xbox everywhere.. etc.

Just maybe Xbox got complacent and when Sony was behind they never let up. They learned and they adapted. Creating partnerships and friendships with developers is also better than just buying up a big percentage of the market.
Sony and Microsoft just done things differently. Sony’s way just seems long term and Microsoft’s way was hurry let’s buy a big piece of the pie to catch up.
End results so far. Xbox GamePass still not seeing massive adaptation that they predicted and currently seeing price increases with less day one content for their mid tier subscription service, and making what they promised on a top tier pay wall.

So about funding for Europe.. they really need to reevaluate their console and streaming service moving forward as a whole. Maybe just maybe they will turn things around but throwing money to Europe with their current situation is really just a waste.

I love how he acts like he is a saint when it comes to gamers. He literally defined slimy. PS3/360 era.. Microsoft’s tactics were nothing but slimy. Call of Duty timed exclusive MP maps. EA marketing rights, trying to buy Media Molecule out from underneath Sony when Sony was building a friendship with..

I mean they are pioneers of slimy business tact’s and here lately buying up the market laying off a huge amount of the devs of the developers you bought. I mean even slime is green after Microsoft.

Making game companies scale back their multiplat games because they want to make a cheaper and less powerful system.. not a fan of him

I really don’t understand why people keep calling it a showcase when it was just a state of Play. everyone needs to relax. There is more to be shown at summer gamefest. More PlayStation studio games will be announced. And by the way, I thought the state of play was pretty decent. I was hoping for more from Concord other than a hero shooter, but we will see how it turns out when he gets here. I’m confident in the dev team they have. Just wait before you cast an opinion on it.
Other than that, I was glad to see Dynasty Warriors origins and more VR games that were very much needed.

It was a decent amount of content that was probably shown more of obligation to their audience, but they have a bigger show coming next week or so at the Summer Gamefest.

I’m ready for something new. I don’t have faith in Microsoft’s Activision anymore. If only Sony could bring back a Socom game that was as massive and more realistic than what CoD has become.
Just getting the developers to codevelop a game where it could release every other year would be nice.

Glad that pc players are getting go to play this wonderful made game. The hate for this game is eye rolling. It was a very well put together story and I beat it again when the dlc was released.. I hope it sells well that way they might consider more dlc or I wish they would make a sequel but I know what they said in the past about it. All in all I enjoyed this action rpg style game. Maybe one more open world would be nice.

Well good, I hope it returns to its roots. I remember staying up overnight with my friend playing GRAW on his 360. Don’t really know what direction they went with the last two.
But what they should do is make a third person mode and a first person mode. That way people who are traditionalist would enjoy third person. I will do both.
I really want them to make an extraction based mode to play. If they take anything from MW make a DMZ mode.. Call of Duty abandoned it

@Stevemalkpus I was wrong.. i tried it today and it was off.. I thought it was like the essential monthly games, but I stand corrected 😅

Tchia was a nice game, I enjoyed the art style.

Once you have them in your library you can still play them. I play It Takes Two with my daughter after it was removed from the PS library and it was installed.

I’m glad HD2 is doing so good and I’m happy that the studio is getting the recognition it deserves for putting out an incredible fun game.. but I hope we can solve this server issue and infinite quick play search for game..
Would using different server providers help? Like Amazon servers? I don’t know how true it is but I’m assuming these are Microsoft Azure servers, would buying more servers help the game or maybe using different ones?

Also I don’t care if Xbox gamers get to play this game as long as the servers are doing right. I have friends I would like to play this game who just own Xbox. People are getting tired of battle royale type of play with friends. And this is a nice change for once.

Phil Spencer reminds me of me when I was in 3rd grade and Pokémon cards were just becoming a hot item..
So much wheeling and dealing for them at that age.. and he reminds me of the kids saying dude this is rare! So he can’t get your Charizard lol

@Deityjester
I was just stating Microsoft as a whole.. just stating ways they were making things not good for gamers.. you’ve seen the emails they wanted to buy the industry from Sony.. now they are dead last. In Europe, being outside 4 to 1, altogether over 2 to 1.

And Starfield was in development on PS5.. although Microsoft owns the rights now. It was canceled. Helldivers 2 was published by Sony and never was in development on Xbox.. Sony owns the rights to the game.. two very different scenarios.. “so how does it benefit players “ Spencer asked.. it seems awful hypocritical..

I’ve been an avid gamer since the mid 90’s.. but I was into gaming news since the ps2 era.. when the 360 came out.. they were buying exclusive rights for Call of Duty DLC, making games come out first for 360 then later on ps3, EA marketing deals with Xbox logo on every EA commercial..
So in saying that.. they lost their grip on the market and now playing this equalizer in gaming.. when they are the ones buying studios up and making games that were planned to be coming out for PS5 to be shelved..

I don’t buy into this.. they are deceptive as a whole company..
Sony bought Bungie and didn’t make their games exclusive.
Only games that are made exclusive from companies that Sony bought were new IP’s from company’s that no one has heard of.

There not getting the game pass memberships they are needing by 2030.. So of course they got to generate money beyond Xbox, it’s not selling in Europe real well and really only market they have is America.
They act as if they want to be seen as the mutual party that wants to collaborate with competitors.. All they did was cancel games coming to PS5 already and bring them back later in time and say look at what I did..
I don’t really have a need for Xbox, only thing Microsoft has done is make a headache for gamers.

You can tell they had practiced their lines real well. I guess they were trying to get a lot internet buz so people will talk about them again.

9/10
I love the game, but I am getting stuck through walls and getting disconnected from missions that I almost completed several times.. it’s exhausting.
Then not getting xp after I complete missions. If they can fix this and I know they are.. I will be grateful.

Also they should add a jump button, and maybe an automatic reload. Vehicles would be nice in the future.
