All I know is that if the Steamcube is comparable to a base PS5 and Valve doesn't require me to pay ten dollars a month to use online features, I will probably make it my main gaming space moving forward.
My PS5 can be reserved strictly for exclusives that are not on Steam.
I enjoyed Tsushima however I am personally liking Yotei more so far. I like Atsu a lot, I love the revenge plot, and the fact we aren't limited to a katana since Atsu isn't hung up on being an honorable samurai.
It's far from almost flawless. The netcode is atrocious. Absolutely unacceptable for rollback in 2025.
Seriously, anyone potentially getting this kollection to play it online do not waste your money like I did.
No ranked
No lobbie
No private match
Terrible netcode
UMK3 Wavenet has online versus but no training mode like all of the other games with online in this kollection
MK3/UMK3/Trilogy doesn't have the kombo strings in the move list which is something even the old Arcade Kollection had.
The training modes don't even have a simple reset position button
I understand not everyone cares about playing online or trying to get good at these games but c'mon...for the price tag it should have standard features and netcode that doesn't feel like it's from 2006.
I've missed Skate so much. It's wild we didn't get a single new game, collection remaster, or even a basic port of the original trilogy during the PS4/XB1 generation.
I'm sure the game will be good...but after waiting 8 years or so there's no way it's ever going to be good enough to feel like that wait was totally justified unless it is some kind of genre redefining masterpiece on a scale we haven't seen in years.
Yeah I enjoyed the first game enough that I knew I'd buy the sequel before we even knew the title or saw the footage.
I normally don't like open world games but Tsushima somehow kept me entertained without ever feeling it was intentionally wasting my time. I guess because I'm so used to playing Soulsborne and Soulslikes the more laid back combat and beautiful world to traverse in Ghost was just kinda nice for a change lol
Did they even read what it's about? Nowhere does it say publishers have to continue supporting something not commercially viable. It's about customers getting to keep the s*** they paid money for.
I wouldn't be against Sony scooping up NRS/MK after what WarnerBros did to MK1 and MvS. Clearly WB has no idea what they're doing in regards to gaming anymore.
Ngl if it offers the simplicity/convenience of a console while allowing you to buy games on Steam in addition to their own store...that sounds kinda sick.
But that's the catch. It HAS to offer the ease of use a traditional console does. If it doesn't it will scare some people away.
So im guessing the video game and manga/anime rules are vastly different? Additionally I've seen some absolutely disgusting (in a good way lol) horror movies from Japan...
I guess I don't understand the logic of why mutilation/extreme violence can exist in some of their media but not another.

Re: Fantastic Fighter Granblue Fantasy Versus: Rising Opens Up with Easy Control Modes on PS5, PS4
Super fun and underrated fighter. I definitely recommend it especially since you can try it for free.
Re: Ghost of Yotei Huge Patch 1.1 Out Now on PS5, Adds New Game+, Armour, and Much More
Sick
I'm still on my first playthrough but the autoloot option will definitely be a nice QoA addition

Re: Horizon MMO Uses AI 'Extensively' in Development, Says NCSOFT
Why would you tell people this lol
Most people don't want ai involved in the stuff they consume.
Re: PS5 Is Getting an Official 27" Monitor with DualSense Charging Functionality
Ok but what's the input lag.
I'm being serious, if we're assuming 90% of the controllers being used on this will be a DualSense controller they should tell is the input lag lol
Re: Poll: Is Ghost of Yotei Better Than Ghost of Tsushima?
I enjoyed Tsushima however I am personally liking Yotei more so far. I like Atsu a lot, I love the revenge plot, and the fact we aren't limited to a katana since Atsu isn't hung up on being an honorable samurai.
Re: Some PS5 Owners Might Be Paying More Than Others on PS Store
That's crooked af, or at least has the potential to be.
Re: Study Claims Physical PS5 Games Are 100 Times Worse for the Planet Than Digital Downloads
Too bad
Me owning a disc of Ghost Of Yotei isn't doing ***** to the planet compared to all of these billionaires with their private jets and yachts.
Re: Poll: Vote for Your PS5 Game of the Month (October 2025)
Yotei
It would have been MK Legacy Kollection buy Digital Eclipse dropped the ball hard.

Re: Sony's Brave Bet on Anime Is Looking Like a Masterstroke
@Rhaoulos Season 1 definitely only covers a small part of a pretty big and emotional story
I won't tell you it's a masterpiece , but it's a damn good manga.
Re: EA's Game Development Is Very Quickly Becoming an AI-Driven Hellscape, Report Claims
Owned by Saudi and AI driven?
Glad I deleted skate. and moved on. EA can kick rocks.
Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying Halo: Campaign Evolved on PS5?
No
I just want Killer Instinct and Banko Kazooie lol
Re: PS6 Could Be the Only Next-Gen Console Charging for Online Multiplayer
Obviously nothing 100% confirmed but the Nextbox is sounding like it's going to be pretty sick IF all of these rumors turn out to be true.
Re: This Is Why Xbox Is Bringing All of Its Games to PS5 Now
Can we get Killer Instinct please lol that's the only thing they have I actually want next to Banjo Kazooie/Rare Replay.
Re: Give the Fantastic Space Marine 2 a Shot with Free PS5 Demo, Out Now
It's so fun. I hope this will get people to get the full game. I love it.
Re: PS6 May Go Uncontested as Rumours of Next-Gen Xbox Cancellation Spiral
It means Sony could do any money squeezing anti-consumer practice they want unchallenged.
Console only people probably won't switch to PC, and the Switch is essentially it's own ecosystem.
I don't particularly care for Xbox but Playstation needs someone to at least try to keep them in check.
Re: Prototype Remaster Could Potentially Be Happening, Evidence Found in PC Version
Man I've these games back in the day but I do worry if going back to them they might not play as good as I remember lol I was a teenager
Re: Out Today: Skate Makes Its Big Return in Early Access on PS5, PS4, and It's Free to Play
After putting about 3 hours into it I like it a lot so far.
The art style isn't really my favorite but the gameplay is fun and that's what has me hooked lol
Re: Out Today: Skate Makes Its Big Return in Early Access on PS5, PS4, and It's Free to Play
Got it downloaded, ready to shred later🔥
I've missed Skate so much. It's wild we didn't get a single new game, collection remaster, or even a basic port of the original trilogy during the PS4/XB1 generation.
Re: 'Genesis Does What Nintendon't': Sonic Racing Takes Shots at Mario Kart World
Good. Nintendo is garbage now.
Re: 'Finish Him': Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection Launches 30th October on PS5, PS4
Any word on if those who bought the Kollecter's Editions will get a code in October so they can play?
Making people who spent more money on the product wait longer to play would be kind of a bummer.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Hollow Knight: Silksong?
Great/excellent in my opinion.
Really addictive and offers quite a challenge but overcoming the challenge is what makes it fun.
Also I find Hornet much more fun to play compared to the Knight from the original Hollow Knight.
Re: Review in Progress: Hollow Knight: Silksong (PS5) - A Silky Smooth Sequel Proving Well Worth the Wait
I don't think the Divekick/pogo mechanic requiring some patience is a bad thing.
To me it looks like Team Cherry intentionally wanted it to function the way it does so be different from the pogo mechanic in the first game.
Personally I love it. I like how you need to space it properly to get the results you want in any given situation.
Re: Scratch That Banjo-Kazooie Itch in PS5 Remake Yooka-Replaylee, Out in October
Honestly never understood the hate for the original PS4 version. I got it on launch and found it to be a good spiritual successor to Banjo Kazooie.
In fact I like it better than Banjo Tooie, and we don't even need to talk about Nuts and Bolts.
Re: Skate's Free-to-Play Revival Rides into Early Access on PS5, PS4 in September
I miss Skate a ton and since it's free to play there's no harm in giving it a shot.
But if I have to pay money for a Baker/Deathwish deck I'm gonna be a little salty lol
Re: The Sheer Presence of Hollow Knight: Silksong Is Delaying PS5 Indie Games
@playstation1995 it'll definitely have more responsive controls lol
Re: Long Awaited Skate Reboot's Early Access Release Date Will Be Revealed Next Week
@Mr_Singh All of the decks, trucks, wheels, shoes, and clothes you want to put on your character probably cost money lol
Re: Round Up: What Was Announced at Gamescom Opening Night Live 2025?
Other than LoTF2 that was kind of a snoozer.
Re: 'Special' Hollow Knight: Silksong Announcement Set for Thursday
I'm sure the game will be good...but after waiting 8 years or so there's no way it's ever going to be good enough to feel like that wait was totally justified unless it is some kind of genre redefining masterpiece on a scale we haven't seen in years.
Re: Meltdowns on Social Media As Sony Markets Its Upcoming Xbox Port
I really don't see why anyone cares about stuff like this. So Xbox is getting Helldivers 2...so f****** what?
I just don't get it.
Re: Delayed Metal Gear Solid Delta Multiplayer Won't Support Crossplay on PS5, Xbox, PC
New big release games not launching with crossplay is weak. That's exactly why I didn't get Nightreign and ill be skipping this too.
It's 2025 and we're paying $69.99 + for these games. They should have crossplay.
Re: Action RPG Lords of the Fallen 2 Reveal Confirmed for Next Week
Definitely excited. I loved the last one even though it was a bumpy ride from launch to where it is now lol
Re: Clair Obscur Director Says Turn-Based JRPGs Are Still Seen as 'Uncool'
Personally it's not about cool or uncool for me. It's about fun and not fun.
Other than when I played Pokémon as a kid, I've never found turn based combat fun. It has nothing to do with coolness lol
Re: PS5 Sequel Darksiders 4 Has Online and Split-Screen Co-Op, By the Way
Just take my f****** money. I adore Darksiders lol
Re: Fans Think Ken's Ending in Fatal Fury Is Hinting at a New SNK vs Capcom
Dude CvS 3 would be a dream come true. Id much rather have that than Marvel Tokon/InvincibleVS/2XKO.
Re: Invincible VS Looks Like Another Accessible Tag Fighter for PS5
They recently confirmed the game WILL have motion inputs as an option for us oldheads lol
Re: Darksiders 4 May Finally Be PS5's Answer to Classic Zelda
I'm so excited 🔥
Day one buy for me.
Re: In Unsurprising News, Even More Xbox Ports Are Allegedly En Route to PS5
Killer Instinct please
Re: The Mortal Kombat 2 Movie Doesn't Look Good, But That's Kinda Perfect
I just can't get behind Karl Urban as Johnny Cage. He just doesn't look like a Johnny Cage to me.
And bald Jade is definitely a choice
Re: Rumour: 'Fatekeeper' Trademark Points to Kingdoms of Amalur Sequel
Now that's a headline I didn't think id ever see but am extremely happy about
Re: Poll: Are You Sold on Ghost of Yotei?
Yeah I enjoyed the first game enough that I knew I'd buy the sequel before we even knew the title or saw the footage.
I normally don't like open world games but Tsushima somehow kept me entertained without ever feeling it was intentionally wasting my time. I guess because I'm so used to playing Soulsborne and Soulslikes the more laid back combat and beautiful world to traverse in Ghost was just kinda nice for a change lol
Re: Industry Body Representing Publishers Like PlayStation Says Stop Killing Games' Proposals Would Be 'Prohibitively Expensive'
Did they even read what it's about? Nowhere does it say publishers have to continue supporting something not commercially viable. It's about customers getting to keep the s*** they paid money for.
Re: PS5 Fans Divided Over Helldivers 2 on Xbox Pivot
I game on Playstation but idc about this. In a perfect world all games would be available on any machine that can run them.
If more people can enjoy a game I'm all for it. I don't work for Sony so idc if their games become available an Xbox lol
Re: Stop Killing Games Fights to Stop Publishers from Revoking Access to Full-Price Products
And yes Pirate Software misrepresented what this movement is about whether it was intentional or not.
Re: EA's Long Awaited Skate Reboot Is Now Imminent on PS5
It's been way too long especially considering the original Skate trilogy never got a port to PS4/PS5.
I have high hopes for this game. I loved Skate 1 and Skate 2....when me and my buddies weren't skating irl we were playing Skate on the PS3 lol
Re: Rumour: Sony Wants Warner Bros' Gaming Assets, Like Mortal Kombat
I wouldn't be against Sony scooping up NRS/MK after what WarnerBros did to MK1 and MvS. Clearly WB has no idea what they're doing in regards to gaming anymore.
Re: The Next Xbox Is a PC, So What Does That Mean for PS6?
Ngl if it offers the simplicity/convenience of a console while allowing you to buy games on Steam in addition to their own store...that sounds kinda sick.
But that's the catch. It HAS to offer the ease of use a traditional console does. If it doesn't it will scare some people away.
Re: Gears of War's PS5 Debut Axed in Japan Due to 'Platform Policies'
So im guessing the video game and manga/anime rules are vastly different?
Additionally I've seen some absolutely disgusting (in a good way lol) horror movies from Japan...
I guess I don't understand the logic of why mutilation/extreme violence can exist in some of their media but not another.
Re: Xbox's Next Round of PS5 Games Are Available to Pre-Order Physically
...
So we're never getting a Killer Instinct port are we?
