Don't like GT personally, just never vibed with the SSJ4 transformation look (the ape hair is a gigantic nope for me). That being said, I am of course still happy for others who are excited. GT may not be my thing, but I can still have fun with some of these characters. Looking forward to picking this up next month.

I mildly empathized with this guy when Days Gone didn't get quite the reception it deserved (my opinion). It wasn't anything extraordinarily groundbreaking, but I think it was a good enough game for Sony to not fully give up on it, so I understood his frustration.

But this... nah, he's just being a weird jerk for no good reason. Like again, sorry Days Gone didn't do well when it arguably could have/should have, but this tantrum isn't doing you any favors.

Excited to play this. Bleach just doesn't get enough gaming love. Last one I played was on the PS3, a Dynasty Warriors clone.

Also, I've memed a few times on previous articles about how Ichigo has yet to use his trademark Getsuga Tenshou in any footage yet. Here... it kinda looks he is actually using the attack but not calling it out. So it is kinda funny that it still hasn't happened yet... kinda lol. The fact that his ultimate attack (or at least one of them???) is an attack he used against Byakuya but never again is kinda odd. Similarly, the dash attack that Byakuya used (against Ichigo, unsurprisingly) is not one that I think he has used often, if only once.

Was gonna take a year off from The Show after getting it the last couple, but I guess for free, sure why not? Little Nightmares II is a nice bonus as well.

Darn, I finished my Platinum on this game just in time before it left PS+. Guess I might have to buy a copy if I want to try this out.

Don't most patches just integrate in fine with current save files? This is the first I've heard of a patch also needing the player to start from scratch. Kinda odd.

With 100% sincerity, I hope this game does well and that the people who play it get a ton of enjoyment out of it. Especially after hearing about the long time it took to get off the ground.

That said, for me personally, the bait and switch with the first trailer seemingly showing off a narrative-focused sci-fi game in the veins of a Mass Effect or etc., only to pull that back and show the game was actually a multiplayer FPS, did incredibly irreparable damage for any enthusiasm I would have had.

And who knows, maybe that wasn't a dev team decision but a Sony marketing one. It's just a headscratcher to me. If I was 100% in the mood for a game like Concord at the time, and it was presented more openly at that first reveal, maybe I'd be preordering it now. But I saw what looked like a fun new SP game and then that was swiftly taken away.

But again, I hope it does well. Maybe the book isn't 100% closed on Concord for me, but we'll see what the rest of the PS gaming community think.

One of my favorite series, but BL3 let me down a little here and there. The endgame in particular just didn't really keep me invested and the DLCs, compared to the other games were just a bit lackluster.

I think BL3 made some nice QoL changes that hopefully they keep and then improve further on. Hopefully they'll find a perfect formula this time.

I slowly marathoned the series last year and a half and I had so much fun with it. This will be the first one I play at launch!

The gameplay is just so satisfying. I guess no Karl this time though.

Had this in my wishlist for quite a while now. But if it's coming to PS+ then I guess no need lol. I'll take it!

I wonder if the trophy list will be ported over exactly. I remember it being a bit of a challenge. There was a mode where you had to stay alive for as long as possible (like 12-15 real life hours I think?) and I blew that one twice, both because I forgot to eat.

Either way, I think I remember mostly enjoying my time with it. Escorting people through hordes on a time crunch was both stressful and sometimes frustrating as hell, but it was still fun. I also remember the ending of the game kind of fizzled out once you left the Mall.

Witcher game without playing primarily as Geralt definitely has an odd feel to it. I'll be cautiously optimistic about it.

If the first two games are getting remake treatment, maybe that will satisfy my Geralt appetite.

A few leaving that I wanted to check out but won't have time, like Destroy All Humans and Moving Out 2 (feel like that one wasn't on the service too long? 8-10 months? idk)

I better finish the Sea of Stars platinum though! Only one trophy left.

Scalpers gonna snatch it all up again?

Love Borderlands a lot, but this was just a bad, bad, bad idea.

Well, on the one hand, it's a chance to platinum this great game a second time!

For a while, especially in the earlier days, like PS2 to early PS3 era, they were the only ones I trusted for "good" reviews. There were far less publications/websites at that time, and GameSpot and IGN were usually among the top ones gamers used for their reviews. GameSpot reviews had A LOT of controversies over the years, but GI always seemed to be unfettered by any nonsense and felt very genuine.

I'll always appreciate that. Farewell.

I have a mild interest in this series. Nothing about it truly blows me away, but nothing is "bad". It's a good rainy day kind of game I guess. Pretty much checks all the boxes in the "decent" area.

I played the first and second though, that's it so far. I'm still annoyed with myself for not knowing the second game had an online trophy that was long discontinued. Oh well.

Also, I wonder who is going to be the spotlight here? My understanding is they did War, Death, and Fury in the three main titles, and Strife got a spinoff game? So maybe finally a group game? Idk.

Do we know if these are just temporary sales? Or is it a permanent price drop? I'm tempted for PSVR2 but I can't justify it right now, even at the lower price.

BL2 was the peak for me so far. I put probably close to 500 hours into that game going back to the PS3 version. All the characters felt so fun and unique.

BL3 by comparison I thought added a lot of good things, with guns, and small QoL updates. But I probably only put like < 200 hours into that. I didn't like it felt like Mayhem really seemed to bottleneck you into only using certain builds, as opposed to the ones you wanted. That may have changed since the last time I played, but I remember for Fl4K the green tree build was the go-to for the longest time.

Anyway, for BL4, I think having some more QoL updates would be helpful, and doing something more impactful with the endgame where it isn't such a grind. Like I know that's the point with looter shooters, but I dunno, it gets tiresome after a while. I liked that BL3 made legendaries drop like crazy, but I don't know if that should be scaled back or not.

@homelesscretin

Johnny Yong Bosch is the GOAT. Guy gets overshadowed a bit by the Nolan Norths and Troy Bakers of the VA world, but he's great. Ichigo, Nero (Devil May Cry 4/5), and let's not forget, the 2nd Black Power Ranger.

Anyway... two trailers and still no Getsuga Tenshou? Get it together, Bandai Namco.

Minor graphical/framerate hiccups, I can look past. As long as the gameplay feels fun and varied. Being that it's another Ubisoft open world affair, I'm hoping for some stuff that isn't too derivative. I expect side quests, a few collect-a-thons, but hopefully it can steer toward some truly unique experiences that I haven't really had.

Meryl Streep shouting meme

MEGA MAN LEGENDS 1 & 2 REMAKE/REMASTERS

(please)

Saw a youtube ad the other day that was just replaying parts of the trailer and no gameplay. They are seriously advertising it as a story game, when it has no story whatsoever.

That right there, frustrates me.

Yeah a lot of minor problems with the wishlist and sales, which on their own are very minor, but add up to be fairly annoying.

Delayed wishlist notifications are annoying, but sometimes I get none at all. Like this latest sale I have some of the games on my list and I didn't get anything.

On the flip side, I've had a weird glitch where I got notifications like every 20 mins.

I played the first one and I'd say it's mostly a fair value for $9.99, but not a must play. The car/parking lot game was probably my favorite since that made you really think and approach it like a puzzle.

Not sure I'd definitely play another, but I'll see what kind of "games" are on this one.

Edit: Forgot to add that the first game strangely was not cross-buy/bundle. I got the PS5 version and it would have cost another $9.99 to get the PS4 version. No thanks. And lastly for trophy hunters, the grind to get coins is a bit annoying but whatever.

Hoping for more news on the game based on The Last Ronin.

Every so often I'm kicking myself because a game I bought on sale ends up on Extra/Premium not long after. So it's always nice when a game I'm thinking about buying ends up on there before I actually pull the trigger.

So if the Remnant 2 leak is true, that's a win for me! Looking forward to it.

As a Bleach fan, I love it, but would like to see more of the gameplay. That felt like a fairly early preview. I hope it will cover the entire story though, including the 1000 Year Blood War. Would honestly be pretty disappointing if it didn't at this point.

Also, not a single Getsuga Tenshou in that trailer? C'mon, what are we doing here?

I think the first game is the most aged one of them all in terms of gameplay and mechanics. This is not necessarily a criticism, because it was truly the pilot game for the Ezio trilogy and beyond. But yeah, bringing that game up to to date with some better visuals, newer gameplay mechanics, maybe even adding an open world outside of the three major cities, that could be fun.

As long as I retroactively get the points for the purchase I made a few days ago, it's fine, whatever.

@Anti-Matter

Still have Plucky Squire in my wishlist from when it was first shown off a year ago I think? Still seems like there's no definitive news on when it's actually coming out.

Anywho, I'm starting to like this slowly growing trend of some games being announced just months before they come out. I know it's very hard to keep the cards close to the chest for some of these studios/publishers, but I like it when they do it. Metaphor was just announced at SGF and it's already coming out this year. Starting to see more of that and I hope it continues.

(Me secretly hoping Ghost of Tsushima will finally be announced soon and be coming out 5-7 months later)

Devil May Cry and those specific type of games (Bayonetta, Metal Gear Rising, and even the old God of War games have always been favorites of mine.

I was a little concerned at first because parts of the HUD looked souls-like. But even if it's there's only slight inspiration from Souls, this still looks like a game that I can't ignore.

A lot of Americans can't even enjoy it themselves. Scalpers struck again here. I myself spent a few hours debating if I wanted it. By the time I decided, they were all gone on all retailers. People on reddit also reported they went in an instant, which can only mean scalpers and their bots swooped in.

@Ken_Kaniff

Oh wow! This is a great start! And I want to say that’s the first “classic” Star Wars game to get trophies. None of the others thus far have: Rebel assault II, Phantom Menace, etc.

@Ken_Kaniff

I was literally just about to ask/comment if the title of this article was implying the other two were NOT getting trophies. If Tomb Raider is getting them, that's a good sign I guess, since that is not strictly a Sony IP. So maybe we'll see more 3rd party games get trophies now, or at least with PS2. Fingers crossed.

This game was a big sleeper hit for me. Loved it so much, especially the boss fights. So if this DLC does not have a true Boss Rush mode, I hope there will be one added in the future.

By the time we get to PS7, dev time for games will be so long that when a new IP comes out, a 10 year old can enjoy it, and then his grandkids will be old enough to play the sequel.

The last trailer really blew me away with how the clothes were rippling and how the ki power up animations looked. Here, I was a tiny bit distracted by some of the faces...

I can't quite put my finger on it, but some of them just seemed off. Caulifla, Gotenks and one or two others just looked odd... like I can't explain it. Something about head/face proportions/spacing. I don't know.

Not trying to sound negative, but again, it just distracted me. Otherwise, this is a must-buy for me I think.

Warriors games are always good "junkfood" games for me. Just shut your brain off and have fun. Really great to do that once in a while. Whatever the gimmick here has me intrigued, so I have my eye on this.

Looks pretty cool but it's not really my favorite genre, so I don't know if it'll be a go-to for me. I was honestly a little let down since the trailer made it seem like a story-based sci-fi adventure. Oh well.

I'm holding out slim hope they'll incorporate trophies for the non-1st party games. The PS2 games they had brought over in the past mostly had them, like GTA, Primal, Siren, and more.

The discourse is so incredibly toxic, it's shameful. For some reason it's really bringing out a few really loud people who are the absolute worst in the gaming community. I've seen similar stuff on FB comments on Ubisoft/Assassin's Creed promo posts.

Besides just some actual racism, some of these babies are saying they won't buy the game simply because Yasuke is a samurai when "there's no historical proof." So what? Why are they dying on that hill when Assassin's Creed has been so anachronistic with so many things in history? Yeah, because Leonardi DaVinci toooooootally invented hidden blades and gave a gliding machine a bomber. Totally. And George Washington had a Native American bodyguard too.

I don't get it, I really don't get it. Even Vidic himself warned Desmond in the very first game not to believe everything he heard/read.

Yeah, I think/hope the version of FFXV Royal I own is the one from the "PS Plus Collection" and afaik, if you redeemed those, you own them. But I guess I'll know for sure in a few weeks. I still have some DLC stuff to finish in that game.

My patience with Immortals paid off lol. That, Plague Tale Requiem, and Evil West were all in my wishlist but I didn't pull the trigger. Worked out.

@MidnightDragonDX

Same here. Obviously we got the four games so far, including Hi-Fi Rush. But before that it was like "Gears of War! Indiana Jones!!" and that didn't turn into anything.

Gonna wait for something more official.

Wow. The Ki power-up animations are amazing, especially the shirt ripple effects. Holy crap.

Only played the first level--twice (long story), but loving it so far! Will be a challenging platinum but I think I'm very, very barely getting the hang of the timing on attacks. My 2nd run through the first level I did a lot better on the scores.

Looking forward to this! Apparently this game was very hard to get all the GS on Xbox, one site had it rated 10/10 difficulty. So trophy hunters like myself best be on notice! That said, I plan to have a lot of fun with this, regardless of whether I get all the trophies or not.

Can definitely recommend Prince of Persia. Loved it a lot!

I'm considering The Forest since I heard it was a good survival/crafting game. The horror elements are my main concern. Is it like… sh*tting my pants constantly level or more just constantly on edge level hahaha
