This was barely a thing on Xbox 360 years ago so I'm not sure why they bothered. People only ever used it to send negative reviews to other people and then after a while nobody bothered doing even that.
I don’t think the upgrade is worth it, so I won’t buy it. I didn’t think the Ghost of Tsushima upgrade was worth it it either, and that was only 10 quid.
@B_Lindz I can’t wait for Factions where we’re all running around as Ronald McDonald stabbing one of the Ninja Turtles in the throat while we wait for a live stream of the latest Ed Sheeran song to start….
I got the PS5 version sealed for £44 back in March off eBay. There were several available from different sellers so I can only assume they were sold by people that got it as part of a console bundle and didn't want it.
I get the impression this is just going to be Now all over again, but with the addition of some PS5 titles. Until they start showing the goods, I can’t see how anybody could be excited for this.
They should keep it up as long as possible because preservation matters. If they made the old systems backwards compatible on PS5, people would be more accepting of it. Same goes for Nintendo. People want to be able to play the games for generations to come, when they feel like it and replacing the ability to buy the games with a subscription that they can deny access to whenever they feel like it isn’t a solution.
Haha, your hostility over me wanting to support Falcom by buying a game is hilarious. We get it. You're the Alpha Nerd Gatekeeper. You are so much cooler for knowing about this series before me, well done you. Pat on the back, here's a medal.
It's not "ignoring" something if you are completely unaware of its existence at that point in time.
And yes, purchasing a PC to play a game IS a "problem". I've used Mac since 2010 for music production and the thought of going back to Windows is disgusting, and that's the last I'll say on the matter because this is going off topic. I'm sure you'll reply to have the last word, but don't bother. I won't be reading it.
@Nem Its a Falcom problem if anything. They are leaving money on the table by not fully catering to the fans they have brought in during the PS4 generation through Cold Steel.
@IonMagi Ah I see, that’s the version that’s supposed to come with both versions in one set.
I would have thought it would make more sense to have a PS4 disc that would let you upgrade to the PS5 version for free, but this would allow somebody to essentially get the PS5 game disc and sell off the PS4 code to recoup costs? Pretty sure they didn’t intend that to be the case.
I thought the show was decent. I couldn't believe they showed GTA5 and Deathloop again, but it is what it is. Plenty made up for it. I think Its a stronger lineup than anything the competition showed at E3.

Re: Ubisoft's Free-to-Play Roller Champions Could Already Be on the Chopping Block
All hail the glorious live service model.
Re: Soapbox: No Free PS5 Upgrade for Persona 5 Royal Is an Insult to Fans and the Game Itself
I don’t think the upgrade is worth it, so I won’t buy it. I didn’t think the Ghost of Tsushima upgrade was worth it it either, and that was only 10 quid.
Re: Skate's Anticipated PS5, PS4 Reboot Will Be Free-to-Play
I’m out. RIP skate.
Re: Pounce on Pre-Orders for Stray Physical Edition on PS5, PS4
Iam8bit have stated that it’ll be receiving a regular retail release as well, including in Europe so hold fire unless you want the extras.
Re: Psychonauts 2 Is Seemingly Getting a Physical Version in September
I’m totally onboard if this plays out.
Re: God of War Ragnarok Collector's Editions Revealed, Two Have Mjolnir
Haha, dumb. I’ll get the standard disc when it’s a reasonable price.
Re: Mini Review: Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (PS5) - Basic Upgrade for a Great Game
Does the PSVR still work on this version or did they strip that feature out?
Re: Xbox Appeared to Embargo PS5, PS4 Versions of Some Showcase Games
Filthy Phil strikes again.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 25th Anniversary Broadcast Announced for 16th June
This is literally just going to be the Xbox announcement. Or better yet, a “Cloud” streaming version for Switch.
Re: Tetris Effect PS4 Physical Editions Announced from Limited Run Games
Pretty sure there was already a uk/eu release of this.

Niell Blomkamp? Screw that! Get Niel Breen!

@B_Lindz I can’t wait for Factions where we’re all running around as Ronald McDonald stabbing one of the Ninja Turtles in the throat while we wait for a live stream of the latest Ed Sheeran song to start….
Re: More Than Half of PlayStation's Investment Could Be in Live Service Games by 2025
If these fail hard, hopefully they'll change direction.
There's nothing more off putting then knowing a game is constantly trying to drain money out of you.
Re: Deal: Horizon Forbidden West, Gran Turismo 7 Both Below £50 in the UK
Some people want the PS5 version on a disc. I know I did.
Re: Deal: Horizon Forbidden West, Gran Turismo 7 Both Below £50 in the UK

I got the PS5 Uncharted collection from gamecollection this morning for under £20 using some accumulated points to knock a few quid off the price.
Are all decent and often cheapest in the UK.
I usually just type the name of any game I'm looking for into google shopping though and that works pretty well.

Pays to shop around.

Cool, cool. I’ll just keep buying my games on disc like I planned to then.
Re: PS Plus Extra, Premium Will Add New PS5, PS4 Games Every Month, Sony Confirms
I get the impression this is just going to be Now all over again, but with the addition of some PS5 titles. Until they start showing the goods, I can’t see how anybody could be excited for this.
Re: Remember Free PS5, PS4 Shooter XDefiant? It's No Longer a Tom Clancy Game
I’m sure we’ll all be back in a years time when they announce the servers are closing.

Re: Gran Turismo 7's New Approach to Microtransactions Isn't Going Down Well
This is the real reason the game is always online. They don’t want you cheating money, they want you paying for it.

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 PS5 Version Detailed with 30 Minutes of Gameplay
So this is just another patch and not the native PS5 version?
Re: Disgaea 6 Complete Ditches Switch for PS5, PS4 This Summer
The lack of a PS4 version on the initial release went down like a wet fart considering Japan got one. Glad we’re getting all the dlc included too.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy Sifu on PS5, PS4?
Waiting on physical. Looking forward to it!
Re: Sony 'Vastly Overpaid' in 'Desperation' for Bungie, Says Outspoken Analyst Michael Pachter

Re: PlayStation Studios Is Developing 'Several' Live Service Games
***** live service games. If that’s all this was for, I’d rather you didn’t bother Jim.
Re: Sony's MLB The Show 22 Up to $70 on PS5, PS4, No Extra Cost with Xbox Game Pass
So it’s $70 to own the game, or pay for game pass and pretend to own the game? Ok.
Re: Xbox Boss Reacts to PS Plus, PS Now Rumours, Says It's the 'Right Answer'
“Spencer speaks of allowing members to play the games they want to play wherever they like and allowing them to curate their own library of titles.”
Cool. I’d love to be able to play Forza Horizon 2 and 3 on an Xbox Series S. Can I do that Phil?
Re: Rumour: New PlayStation Subscription Will Give Access to PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP Games
I’ll keep buying my games, thanks.
Re: Publisher Take-Two Forces It Takes Two Dev Hazelight to Abandon Title Trademark
Take Two, Ubisoft, Activision and EA going all out in the race to the bottom.
Re: NEO: The World Ends With You Didn't Meet Square Enix's Sales Expectations
I would have been all over this but I’ve never played the original. If they had ported it to the PS4, I would have played it and this one.

Re: Soapbox: Some Games Assume You Know How to Play Them, and It's Kinda Weird

Re: Marvel's Avengers Attracts Ire After Adding XP Booster Microtransactions
Live service games are garbage, and I hope all these high profile failures will accelerate this model into its grave.

Bring us all the Trails! Can we get the Sky Trilogy on something more modern than a PSP as well?

Wait what? The PS4 version physical doesn’t even come with a disc? Why even bother?
Re: Heavy Rain, Detroit Team Reportedly Making a Star Wars Game
This is great news. David Cage is perfectly suited to this as the master of emotions.
As we all know, Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering through a Quantic Dream Star Wars game.
