"Players can also be sent messages telling them to git gud, and there's even mention of viewers paying to have people killed off. It all seems to come down to a voting system, which can be influenced by a player's supposed skill level."

I've never played the game myself but opening the show with this (no that trash ad didn't happen) was a shrewd move, a lot of fans out there consider it a goat game. Hopefully they can deliver.
I've seen some speculation about the next PS5 Pro and Xbox being ready around 2023 but I have hard time considering that could even be a possibility with the current shortage continually being extended.
So I have Hitman GotY edition + Hitman 2 Gold edition (both digital), if I buy Hitman 3 I can play both through 3 allowing I get the legacy pack for 1. Is that right?
I get the higher price for PS5, don't like it, but I get it. I understand not having a free upgrade option forever. I think it sucks when other folks are doing it still. Okay whatever. BUT not having a physical disc come with the physical collector's editions is mind boggling. Surely someone has stuffed up here?! Gotta be pulling my leg.
Yep, first time player here. I bought a physical PS4 copy at launch last year but never got around to playing it. So I upgraded to the PS5 Director's Cut and currently around 9 hours in... I'm loving every second of it. The whole game is amazing, from the visuals, story so far, the UI, and the aesthetics, everything has been crafted perfectly.
Downloading the PS5 upgrade now. As someone who bought the game last year but didn't get around to playing it, I'm loving I'll get to experience it on the PS5 fresh.
I played it on Game Pass as well and absolutely loved it. Finished in one sitting, around 10 hours I think, then played a second time to mop up the two achievements I was missing.

Re: Dying Light Receiving a PS5 Patch in the Future
I'm pretty sure this got a boost already on Xbox so good to see the same happening for PlayStation where I own a copy.
Re: Retro Future Sci-Fi Thriller The Invincible Looks Out of This World on PS5

Wait?! What? Where am I? This isn't Nintendo Life.
Re: Mini Review: AWAY: The Survival Series (PS5) - Life Finds a Way, Far Away
Oof, I had hopes this would be good as it looked interesting. Shame. Maybe patches and a deep sale will change my mind on getting this now.

Re: Stylish Racer Art of Rally Revs Its Engine on PS5, PS4 in October

AUS$154.95 for the Digital Deluxe Edition. Crikey!
Re: WipEout Rush Is a New Entry in Sony's Iconic Series for Smartphones in 2022
Mobile is a good source of revenue for Sony... though I don't understand those who choose to play on phones.
Re: What Is Going on with Sony's Supposed Acquisition of Bluepoint?
Yes, inquiring minds would like to know. This should be a no-brainer for both parties.

Re: Spider-Man 2, God of War: Ragnarok Trailers Pull Enormous Numbers
Project Eve is the one that impressed me most overall, that looks dope.
The Wolverine and Spider-Man 2 were the ones that got me hyped. Insomniac are special.
And a trailer that drew me back in after the last left me cold was Ghostwire Tokyo. That could be real good.
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Brings Venom to PS5 in 2023
Knock knock let the devil in.
Yeah, this was hype, Insomniac can do no wrong rn. I wonder if that babe Black Cat will make a return. Meow.
Re: Ghostwire: Tokyo Coming Spring 2022, New Trailer Shares Gameplay
This definitely looks cool. After the last trailer I cooled to it but this one's rekindled my interest. Just need more gameplay.
Re: This Year's PS5 Commercial Has an Avant-Garde Feel to It
This was absolute cringe. No wonder they're charging more for the games if they're wasting money on this trash.
Re: Korean Character Action Project Eve Dances with Death Like a K-Pop Star
Looks like waifus are back on the menu, boys!
This looks awesome.
Re: Sony Acquires Firesprite Games, Dev Behind The Persistence, Playroom
Another smaller acquisition that I hope pays dividends in the years to come. A more experimental PlayStation is very welcome.
Now where is the Bluepoint announcement?
Re: NBA 2K22's Career Mode Is Now Essentially an Open World RPG on PS5

Re: Gulp! PS5 Stock Shortages Could Last Until 2023
I've seen some speculation about the next PS5 Pro and Xbox being ready around 2023 but I have hard time considering that could even be a possibility with the current shortage continually being extended.
Re: PS Plus Game Hitman 2 Can Run at 4K 60FPS with DualSense Support on PS5
So I have Hitman GotY edition + Hitman 2 Gold edition (both digital), if I buy Hitman 3 I can play both through 3 allowing I get the legacy pack for 1. Is that right?
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Will Now Offer Free PS4 to PS5 Upgrade, Sony Confirms
Cool! That was a quick turnabout.
Now they can put physical discs in those expensive collectors editions, right? Right?!
Re: Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut Patch 2.008 Improves Cosmetic Viewing Load Times, Restores Colour Button Prompts
Glad they patched out that annoying wait for cosmetics. It always felt weird when everything else is lightning fast.
Re: Strike Is a Board Game You Can Play Within Horizon Forbidden West on PS5, PS4
"Don't go on strike in the comments section below."
What are you gonna do about it? Hire some strike busting goons?
Re: Sony Will Make You Pay Extra to Upgrade Horizon Forbidden West from PS4 to PS5
Wow, this is a hot mess. LOL
I get the higher price for PS5, don't like it, but I get it. I understand not having a free upgrade option forever. I think it sucks when other folks are doing it still. Okay whatever.

Ah Sony... one step forward, two steps back.

Very cool. I like their Nintendo one as well.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut?

@Sebatrox Asian.
Re: Fatal Frame Producer Wants to Make a New Game in the Series
Already preordered from Play Asia. Problem is it's only the PS4 physical, so hopefully there is a free PS5 upgrade path.

Excellent. I have a feeling great things are in store for this team.
Re: Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water Hits PS5, PS4 Just Before Halloween
So no physical copy? Would buy a Collector's Edition in a heartbeat. Hopefully this does well enough to convince Koei to resurrect the franchise.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 385
I finally earned the FRIDAY THE 13TH Platinum today. So that is done.
Tomorrow morning I will be joinng a gaming session for Mortal Kombat X for the 1000 Respect online grind.
And probably not much else. There's a few games I need to get back to but after focusing so much on F13, I'd like to chill a bit.
