Project Century was the only one that actually caught my interest. Obviously The Witcher 4 is hype but unless the combat is dramatically improved over TW3 I'm on the fence.
And I'm sure the ew Ninja Gaiden by the Blasphemous devs will be a banger
Other than those though almost all of the reveals were pretty mid for me.
It sounds cool, but like with The Witcher series it needs to have improved combat.
TW3 had everything I wanted in a game like that but the combat was so jank I couldn't force myself to finish it, and that was on the supposedly improved PE5 version.
Digital is convenient sure and I buy games digitally sometimes but I still prefer to own a physical copy I can. They can't play that "You're only paying for a license" bs when you own a disc and can pop it right into your PS4/PS5.
Not only did Concord not offer anything unique, it literally had one of the worst looking roster of playable character I've ever seen...and I've been gaming since the 90's lol
And no I'm not being hyperbolic, the cast was that bad.
It's 3rd Person Overwatch, which is pretty cool as I prefer 3rd Person to First Person perspectives in video games.
And all characters are available to you from the get go like OG Overwatch, the battlepass/store seems to be exclusively for cosmetics that don't really affect the actual gameplay in anyway.
I just don't see this happening because so many people (myself included) prefer the convenience of a "Plug and Play" machine that a console offers.
I have zero interest in building a PC, or the hassle of having to replace and/or upgrade specific parts of it. It all sounds like a big pain in the ass to me.
Plus I don't see Nintendo discontinuing gaming devices...who honestly thinks they're going to do that? Is Nintendo going to wake up one day and decide they're going to release all of their games on Steam? It's not gonna happen.
I can see Xbox/Playstation potentially doing that in the future but not Nintendo.
They should at least try to equalize the HP bars of the characters in Ranked Singles.
You can say it's not meant to be balanced all you want but why have a Ranked Mode with leaderboards at all if it's not trying to be somewhat competitive?
And they already nerfed Yajirobe's Senzu Bean mechanic because of how strong it was so the devs clearly care about balance to some extent
I'll dunk on Sony when I think they deserve it however this game definitely seems like something most people would buy for their Switch, or even their Playstation for obvious reasons.
Admittedly it's still a little surprising it's doing less than Concord lol
I just wish they would hurry up and confirm or deny if the Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remaster is going to get a physical copy or not.
Just tell us. If there are currently no plans to release a physical copy ill pre-order the digital one right now, but I don't want to buy digital if they're going to release a disc version two months later lol
Na, Sony should just release a real Bloodborne Remaster. 2025 is the 10th anniversary right?
That'd easily make back at least some of that Concord money they flushed down the toilet.
And considering how tech prices in the U.S are gonna go up in 2025, buying a Bloodborne Remaster will be more attractive to consumers than a possible $1000 PS5 Pro.
Have they confirmed a physical release at all? I really want to support this and the Soul Reaver 1&2 Remaster but I'm trying to get physical copies if possible.
I was slowly falling into the convenience of digital purchases but after these companies saying we don't really own them and are just paying for a license to play them, I've gone back to going out and buying a disc.
They can't take away a disc. Even if I have to play the game without the day one updates/patches in the future, at least I can still play them.
Just got home with a copy so im a little late but I'm excited to play. I spent a ton of hours in BT3 as a kid, so this should be a nostalgic but also fresh experienc
Anyone that bothered by a woman existing in a protagonist role needs to reevaluated their life.
Was it "woke" when Lara Croft hit the scene? Was is "woke" when Metroid revealed Samus was a woman? Was it "woke" when Chun Li or Sonya existed in their respective fighting games?
Bloodrayne anyone?
I'm sorry but this outrage is f****** ridiculous. Actually go get some fresh air and think about how stupid yall sound to the rest of society.

Re: Elden Ring: Nightreign Will Boast Bosses Pulled from Dark Souls Series
Personally not a huge fan of the lore implications of it. Id rather them just say they're non-canon cameos purely there for fun lol

Re: Ex-Witcher Dev's Dark Fantasy RPG Dawnwalker Will Be Fully Revealed in January
It sounds cool, but like with The Witcher series it needs to have improved combat.
TW3 had everything I wanted in a game like that but the combat was so jank I couldn't force myself to finish it, and that was on the supposedly improved PE5 version.
Re: Elden Ring: Nightreign Will Not Have Crossplay
Oof
I was already on the fence with this one but since my homies are all on PC I definitely have no reason to get this now.
Re: Poll: Vote for Your PS5 Game of the Year 2024
For me it's...
1. Wukong
2. Warhammer Space Marine 2
3. Stellar Blade
4. Dragon's Dogma 2
5. Sparking Zero
Note - I haven't played Astro Bot myself yet, but I'm planning on it eventually.
Re: Elden Ring: Nightreign Explained, Can Be Played in Single Player and Offline
That sounds terrible
Can we just get Dark Souls 4? Bloodborne 2? Or Demon's Souls 2?
Re: Elden Ring: Nightreign Announced, a Co-Op Game for PS5, PS4
Is it open world like ER? If so, im good.
I'll just play DS3 if I want to fight The Nameless King again.
Re: Poll: What Will Win Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2024?
I hope it's Wukong, but I'm expecting Astro Bot.
Re: Physical Media Just Can't Catch a Break Right Now
This is unfortunate.
Digital is convenient sure and I buy games digitally sometimes but I still prefer to own a physical copy I can. They can't play that "You're only paying for a license" bs when you own a disc and can pop it right into your PS4/PS5.
Re: Concord 'Didn't Bring Unique Value' to Players, Says Marvel Rivals Director

Re: Poll: Will You Be Watching The Game Awards 2024?
Yes, exclusively for reveals lol
Re: Stop-Motion Action Figure Fighting Game Knock Off Looks Awesome, Coming to PS5
@StrickenBiged: That would be a licensing nightmare and pretty much miss the point of the game being goofy legally distinct knock offs lol
Re: Stop-Motion Action Figure Fighting Game Knock Off Looks Awesome, Coming to PS5
I need this ASAP lol
Probably the closest thing we're gonna get to Killer Instinct or Clayfighter on a PS console
Re: Black Myth: Wukong, Elden Ring DLC in The Game Awards' Fan Vote Final
Erdtree shouldn't even be nominated unless the category is "Paid DLC Expansion of the year".
At least Wukong is a full standalone game, not DLC.
Re: Marvel Rivals Is Off to a Heroic Start with 10 Million Players in First Three Days
It's 3rd Person Overwatch, which is pretty cool as I prefer 3rd Person to First Person perspectives in video games.
And all characters are available to you from the get go like OG Overwatch, the battlepass/store seems to be exclusively for cosmetics that don't really affect the actual gameplay in anyway.
Re: Croc: Legend of the Gobbos Remaster Hit with Last-Minute Delay into 2025 on PS5, PS4
Id rather them delay it and release it in a good state than rush it out of the door unpolished
Not mad at all, plus with Soul Reaver Remasters dropping in two days I have something to keep me entertained for the rest of 2024
Re: Insiders Are Already Hyping Up The Game Awards, Set to Be a 'Very Big' Show
TGA is now the closest thing we have to the old E3 conferences/reveals so I enjoy tuning in to see what games get revealed
I don't really care about the actual awards lol

Re: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered Goes Above and Beyond with Bonus Content, Including Lost Levels
The fact you'll be able to explore previously unreleased/cut content it really cool.
This definitely seems like a lot of love has gone into it. Can't wait to play it on the 10th 🔥
Re: Bleach: Rebirth of Souls Avoids February Madness with March Release Date on PS5, PS4
March 21st
And this looks surprisingly good for an "anime arena fighter". The newest trailer looked super clean.
Re: PS5 Users Are Begging for Themes, PS1 Startup Screen to Stay
They're gonna take em away after the "limited time" is over then reintroduce them as themes for us to buy lol
Re: When Is The Game Awards 2024?
@Oram77 One of those things is not like the other.
One is a full standalone game, one is a paid DLC expansion.
Re: Official Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero Tournament Is an Unsurprising and Unmitigated Disaster
They should at least try to equalize the HP bars of the characters in Ranked Singles.
You can say it's not meant to be balanced all you want but why have a Ranked Mode with leaderboards at all if it's not trying to be somewhat competitive?
And they already nerfed Yajirobe's Senzu Bean mechanic because of how strong it was so the devs clearly care about balance to some extent
Re: Bloodborne Server Maintenence Scheduled for PlayStation's 30th Anniversary
Probably a PS5 Pro patch or something
I refuse to get my hopes up for anything else lol
Re: Sony's Latest First-Party Release Is Struggling to Do Concord Numbers on PC
I'll dunk on Sony when I think they deserve it however this game definitely seems like something most people would buy for their Switch, or even their Playstation for obvious reasons.
Admittedly it's still a little surprising it's doing less than Concord lol
Re: Vast Majority of Gamers Say Elden Ring DLC Should Never Have Been Nominated for Game of the Year
The award is "Game of the year" not "Paid DLC expansion of the year".
Shadow Of The Erdtree is not a standalone game, it's paid DLC you can't play without already owning and playing Elden Ring.
It's dumb that it's up for GOTY. Why not just make a separate award for best DLC of the year or something?
Re: Feature: Why Would Sony Want to Buy Kadokawa?
If it means they essentially would own FromSoftware it makes a lot of sense.
Might as well buy it before Microsoft tries to lol
Re: Rumour: FromSoftware Classic Getting the Remaster Treatment
I'm definitely down for a DS3 Remaster
Re: There Is a God! Legacy of Kain PS5 Pre-Orders Are Exceeding Expectations
I can't wait to experience these games. I barley remember playing Soul Reaver because I was so young at the time lol
Re: Legacy of Kain Fans Will Be Feasting on PS5, PS4 These Coming Weeks
I just wish they would hurry up and confirm or deny if the Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remaster is going to get a physical copy or not.
Just tell us. If there are currently no plans to release a physical copy ill pre-order the digital one right now, but I don't want to buy digital if they're going to release a disc version two months later lol
Re: GTA Trilogy Dev Implies Rockstar Made a 'D*ck Move' Removing Its Name from PS5, PS4 Remasters
I grabbed a used copy on a whim this summer because I needed some San Andreas nostalgia and their name is still in the game...
Pretty sure it's on the main menu lol
Re: LEGO Horizon Adventures Is Getting a Surprisingly Huge Marketing Push
Idk why Sony would allow this on Nintendo when Nintendo never share their IPs
I mean I know the answer is $$$, but still Nintendo doesn't deserve it imo.
Re: PS5 Pro Makes Unpatched PS4 Software 'More Palatable' on High-Res Displays
Na, Sony should just release a real Bloodborne Remaster. 2025 is the 10th anniversary right?

Re: Bloodborne PS5 Pro Comparison Appears As Consumers Receive Console Early
Paying $700 to barley make a PS4 game look sort of better is so generous of our Sony overlords.
Their majesty has worked so hard to bring us this greatness we have long awaited
Re: Croc: Legend of the Gobbos Remaster's Trophy List Will Challenge Your Gamer Instincts
@MrPeanutbutterz You don't have to go for trophies though, they're completely optional extra challenges lol
Re: Croc: Legend of the Gobbos Remaster's Trophy List Will Challenge Your Gamer Instincts
Have they confirmed a physical release at all?
I really want to support this and the Soul Reaver 1&2 Remaster but I'm trying to get physical copies if possible.
Re: After a Tough Few Months, Sony Says It'll Keep Making PS5 Live Service Games
If it doesn't work...try it again!
They clearly haven't learned anything from Concord which is kind of baffling lol
Re: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered Reveals Baddies in PS5, PS4 Trailer
It looks so good
Can't wait to experience for essentially the first time, I was so young when I played Soul Reaver that it'll be like going in blind lol
Re: Like It or Not, This Is Why PS5 Pro Doesn't Have a Disc Drive
I was slowly falling into the convenience of digital purchases but after these companies saying we don't really own them and are just paying for a license to play them, I've gone back to going out and buying a disc.
They can't take away a disc. Even if I have to play the game without the day one updates/patches in the future, at least I can still play them.
Re: Gory Pixel Beat-‘Em-Up Terrifier: The ARTcade Game Announced for PS5
I can't wait for this. I love the Terrifier series and Art The Clown. Terrifier 3 was so metal lol best Xmas movie ever
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero?
Just got home with a copy so im a little late but I'm excited to play. I spent a ton of hours in BT3 as a kid, so this should be a nostalgic but also fresh experienc
Re: Retro-Inspired Horror Gem Crow Country Is Heading to PS4 Later This Month
Any older gamers here who loved the PS1 Resident Evil games should absolutely give this game a chance.
It's literally PS1 Resident Evil but with like Final Fantasy 7 graphics. It's a modern blast to the past in the best way possible in my opinion.
Re: Lords of the Fallen PS5 Sequel Prioritising 'Elevated Production Values', More 'Commercial' Art Style
Absolutely my favorite Soulslike, I can't wait for the sequel.
Re: Darkstalkers Fans May Find Street Fighter 6's Fighter Pass a Touch Cruel
I legitimately think ill be dead before Capcom actually gives us Darkstalkers 4 😭
Re: PS5 Fans Want to Protest Against New User Interface Advertising
Good.
Enough is enough. People are sick of ads everywhere they look. It's ridiculous.
Re: Sony's Live Service Push 'No Joke', A Lot of People Working on Horizon Online
I like Horizon
But I'm not interested in a live service Horizon
Re: Poll: Did You Pre-Order a PS5 Pro?
Na, let the marks fight over them.
I'll wait for the PS6.
Re: Random: Xbox Boss Complains About X Button After Being Handed PS5 Pad
PS1 had the X button there before Xbox even existed lol
Re: Talking Point: What Was Your Favourite PS5 Game from State of Play September 2024?
I was going nuts for Soul Reaver when it popped up lol
Re: PS5's Ghost of Yotei Triggers Social Media, Ex-Sony Exec Says 'If You Don't Like It, Don't Buy It'
Anyone that bothered by a woman existing in a protagonist role needs to reevaluated their life.

Bloodrayne anyone?
