A real shame, because the gameplay actually looks solid. But I definitely won't be picking this up anymore, even if it reviews well. Like c'mon, did it really need a battle pass? How tone deaf can they get?
@guntam Speak for yourself, mate. There's no PS Now in Brazil. I don't even have an opinion on the service because it's just not available in my country
I mean, if the selection is good? I'm in Brazil, we don't even have PS Now here. So tbh if this service even launches here, it's better than NOTHING lol
It's also worth pointing out that, as of season 6, everyone needs to connect to an Epic Games Account. Cross-progression is now enabled, much like Rocket League and Fortnite. Actual cross play (not just custom games) is coming sometime this season. Switch and Xbox still don't have a release date, but they confirmed it's not launching this year.
I just wanted to say that it'd be easy for a PlayStation fan site to merely report the news or eventually report on the controversy, but you've called them on this nonsense since the beginning and I very much appreciate it.
Sammy, forgive my ignorance, but I'm very confused right now. When I check Ghost of Tsushima's page on my PS4 right now there's only one expansion option: the Director's Cut upgrade, which includes the Iki Island Expansion. There's no mention of a second purchase of a PS5 upgrade. Is it because I'm checking on PS4?
For anyone that stopped playing after awhile, I recommend checking back with friends again. Last season's stages were really good, and the new ones look cool as well.
@AFCC How long have you not played the game? They've actually been updating the graphics in the past few months. The difference is very noticeable. Here's an example: https://youtu.be/IS0zfiH4faM They're even updating character models. And the menus have been changed a fair amount as well
Friendly reminder that Sony is a huge corporation and that they primarily care about profit. It's never been "For the players", and never will be. Nintendo and Microsoft are the same. Microsoft's been playing nice with Xbox in the last half a decade to regain their reputation
I bought a sealed copy for a ridiculous bargain. I'll hold onto it until I get a PS5. By the time that happens the PS5 version will be out already, so I'm stocked
I don't see this as good news. Online modes shoehorned into single player games usually aren't good. And unfortunately "It's CD PROJEKT Red, they'll be fine" doesn't cut it anymore.
It's one of my favorite PS4 games. Really loved it from start to finish. Legends was a huge surprise and a lot of fun too! But now I'm wondering, we don't often see sales figures for PlayStation games. It'd be nice to see a list of best selling PS4 games now that the generation is "over". Is there such a list? I mean, obviously it'd full of CoDs and FIFAs, but I'm more interested in the first party stuff
Exclusive or not, all Bethesda games being available on game pass is HUGE. It's a good thing Microsoft is stepping up after last generation's relative failure.
What a bummer, I'm looking forward to both of them. That being said, I guess that means I'll be able to buy a PS5 in time for the releases and get the better versions.
Let me just say that this list of games alone is VERY solid. It's not yet confirmed, but IF Overwatch 2 releases this year I'm gonna be all over it. Other than that: Horizon, GoW and Cyberpunk when they finish the game!
I went hard on the last Rocket League pass and got all the rewards. It was great, the items were awesome and I had a good time. I wasn't playing any new single player game at the time. But now I'm kinda lacking the energy to do it all over again for the new season. I've basically given up on Overwatch events as well. I think the only game I won't miss on any event or ranked season is Pokémon, other than that it's whatever I feel like
I'm curious to see what score you'll end up giving it. It really is a shame the game released in this state. I'll gladly wait for the actual PS5 version, and maybe even for the expansion. CDPR may have lost a little clout with this rough launch, but I have faith they'll fix most problems, at least on current gen. I don't even have a PS5 yet, but after Tlou2 and Ghost of Tsushima on PS4 this year, I'll just wait to play anything else on PS5 eventually.
Does the primary/secondary settings related to accounts still work the same? What I actually mean is: will my brother and I still be able to share an account?
It's so good I can't believe it's free. And they didn't even advertise it prior to the game's launch. No microtransactions either. It's great, I love it
I wonder what does this mean for backward compatible PS VR games once PSVR2 launches. I don't have PSVR, but I'm definitely getting the new version whenever it releases on PS5. I just assumed all PS4 games would work on the new headset with the new camera, but now I'm not so sure. Hopefully it's all compatible, as it'd be kinda silly to buy a new PSVR and missing out on the PS4 VR games that supposedly wouldn't be compatible.
That's a HUGE no from me. This is beyond ridiculous. I was thinking of maybe buying Miles Morales on PS4 before getting my PS5 later down the line. That would definitely stop me from getting it, and any other game with free upgrades. It kills the purpose of the feature.
This really feels like "We're gonna say we added this much new stuff to the game to justify them paying for it again." Meanwhile, Xbox's exclusives are getting the same upgrades and still be "free". I don't want to be that guy, I love this game, I'll get a PS5. But this, much like Control, doesn't feel good.
A playtime counter should be a system wide feature, like Nintendo does. It's such a small thing, but I personally care so much for it. Hopefully PS5 has it from the very beginning
