PlayStation is publishing a huge amount this year, TLOU2R, Helldivers 2, MLB 24, Lost Soul Aside, Rise of the Ronin, Stellar Blade, Concord, Convallria, maybe Spiderman 2 DLC. Most of these titles we know nothing of really, no marketing, no hype, just trailers that go for a couple of minutes.
2024 I would like them to be more transparent, I know games are taking longer to develop, and the pull to live service has delayed some studios, but I would still like to know what they're cooking, a big showcase is needed (pretend the 2023 one didn't happen).
I like what microsoft is doing with the developers direct, something like that would be appreciated, where we get a deep dive into 4-5 games.
Hopefully the new CEO will take it in a better direction
Obviously this must be my favourite genre. There’s heaps of big 2023 titles I haven’t played, but I’ve played all of these, even have the plat for 4 of them. SM 2 is the winner for me
I got 14 right! I would have thought Death Stranding 2 was a shoe in and Elder Ring dlc as well. And can’t believe no muttered a single mention of GTA.
I'm seeing a lot of hate for this month, but for me its ones of the better lineups. I'm having a lot of fun with teardown, and for the nostalgia ill play Klonoa(only ever played the PS1 demo) Jet Moto and maybe Grandia if they include trophy support.
Also Superliminal looks up my alley, so for me 8/10 month
Its a great game, still feel GoW 18 was better, when TLoU launched on PS3 and I played it I don't think anything's come close to that experience so thats still my favourite. I prefer Horizon and Uncharted to the GoW series as well
Feel sorry for the developers, obviously the leaders of these development studios saw the embracer $$ and signed up, it was always going to collapse as nothing worthwhile has come out of any of these embracer group acquisitions, you need money coming in to support this spending and I don't think they've had one big hit yet and unfortunately the employees on the bottom rungs are the ones affected
That's because we will see some DLC, Miles Morales 2 and potentially a silk spinoff where Miles will be the main.I guarantee with Green Goblin as the main antagonist in 3 Peter Parker will step out of retirement and be the leading Spider-Man again
Yeah its why i have zero hype for this game. I was a massive GTA fan back in the day, IV derailed it a bit, V's single player was great but they've milked that online for 10 years now and i feel like the single player in VI might take the backseat like CoD singleplayer campaigns
Yep, I'm a trophy hunter and in the trophy hunting community and my twitter feed is everyone popping the plat, its crazy how popular it is and how many people are exploiting it
Understandable, a game inspired by Game of Thrones is hardly going to be appealing in Japan. In saying that the game is very Final Fantasy and has references to so many past entries. Im sure sales will do fine worldwide though.
Will be interesting to see DQXII as they're going for a darker more serious tone for that game as well
Translation: it's a free to play title where people buy robux, we at Sony want to know the best way to monetise it so we make a good portion of the profit
Crazy to think that since 2014 when they released Dragon Age Inquisition they have had 2 flops in nearly 10 years, Anthem and Mass Effect Andromeda, so no wonder they're laying off people. They would of made a little bit off the Mass Effect collection and SWTOR might bring a bit of revenue. Sad to see but its the state of the world right now
@Sequel understandable when you look at the past couple of years as most of the games that have dominated are Japanese, Elden Ring, Zelda, FFXVI, Street Fighter VI, Resident Evil 4 etc etc.....
@Savage_Joe is it though? PS4 is 10 year old tech, time to move on and push the medium forward. This is the first generation ive seen hold onto the previous generation for so long
Check out the memoria project on twitter, they are about to announce something there at 10.30pst. Supposedly a fan made video project but would not be surprised if its something more.
I really enjoy Devolver's indie offerings, but their shows are so cringe that i cant watch them, ill just watch the trailers when they're uploaded after
@patronmacabre after GoW Ragnarok we’ve already been wondering what the future of PS studios single player games are outside of SM2 and Wolverine, and unfortunately we still don’t know, just have a few average CG trailers for GaaS games. I think Helldivers 2 looks interesting though
I saw a rumour that Xbox had secured the one year deal, which made sense as Sega has very close ties to Microsoft and all the previous entries releasing on Gamepass recently
Love that its going to be linear with little side quests and no mini games. I just want a great story and a fairly straight shot to the end, similar to VII remake's structure. I'm getting fatigued with games that are coming out with bloat and too much pointless content
Creative bankruptcy right here, haven't they already announced like 4 mainline assassins creed games in development? Should we say Beyond good and evil 2 is dead now

How is warner bros so dominant??
1. Hogwarts Legacy

I doubt Suicide squad will have a tail as long as these games
Re: Before Suicide Squad, Rocksteady Was Reportedly Developing an Original Multiplayer Game
@StylesT well when they started in 2015/16 the gaming world was a different place, live service games weren't the behemoth they are now

Nah will still be linear, happy it will have more nooks and crannies to explore though

Re: Twitter Integration to Be Removed from PS5, PS4 Next Week
That's a shame, I'm apart of a trophy community on twitter and we all share direct from PlayStation to x our recent platinum's and milestones.
X(twitter) is getting worse anyway, its becoming very hateful and full of propaganda every minute

Re: Poor Immortals of Aveum Sales Leads to Significant Lay-Offs
@Logonogo it feels like every major event had a trailer for it, the game looked a bit dated so i don't think it hit anyone's radar
Re: UK Sales Charts: Starfield Soars While Mortal Kombat Hype Brings Back 11
Warner Bros is the real winner here, they must be making alot of bank off Hogwarts, MK and LSW!

Re: GTA 6 Release Window Seemingly Narrowed Down to Fiscal Year 2024
