Bought this last month so course it goes on ps plus this month! Great game though and a massive get for the service

One of the best adventure game series ever. So much love for this series and can’t wait to replay it

Been wanting to play Harold Halibut for AGES so I am super happy about that!

Fallout Season 2 trailer for sho'

Silk Song trailer or I riot.

I have been able to successfully download it now but can't play because when I try to create a Battlenet account I can't get past the stupid Captcha puzzle! It says my response was invalid despite it being absolutely correct. Have attempted doing the visual puzzle about 8 times and have also done the audible puzzle, for hard of sight users, and that also fails. Anyone else had this issue?

Would have been Blue Prince had i not picked up Clair Obscure! Game of the month?! Pffff, Game of the Year easily, and possibly then some…

Well deserved, this game is incredible. Although, I suspect the success and high user rating is down it to being multi platform. Had it been an exclusive to one of the consoles the opposing “team” would definitely be doing everything in their power to bring that user score down.

Was torn between this and Expedition 33 and sooooo glad I went with the latter. It is incredibly polished. I’ll perhaps jump to Oblivion if some of the kinks get ironed out, but the hype might have died by the the time that happens.

@MFTWrecks @PuppetMaster don’t let that put you off this. The parry and dodge system in place is absolutely incredible. It really blows traditional turn based combat out of the water and makes the whole thing feel active and action packed. The combat is so fresh and compelling. I’m not a fan of jrpgs but this is something else. Voice acting, story, graphics, world, characters are all absolutely perfect. Been a long time since a game got me this good.

Ahhh, man, torn between this and Oblivion but feel the quality of this, and the fact it isn't a 500 hour RPG may just be the clincher

Absolutely love the excitement around a new console reveal! And a 60 minute showing is HUGE! Really looking forward to seeing what’s on offer!

Prince of Persia was a lot of fun. I doubt I’ll play it again though. I am looking forward to trying Syberia out having played the original in the 90’s.

Prince of Persia is great.

I didn't realise Syberia was still going, has anyone given this a go? I played the first one on PC a loooooooong time ago and really enjoyed it. Quite fancy a slower paced game.

She's a phenomenal actress and I have no doubts she is going to do the character justice. Have just been watching her in "Apple Cider Vinegar" on Netflix and she is so incredibly compelling at all times.

I was unable to play BG3 on my profile during the outage, but my gf who has a profile which does not have a psn account was able to play BG3 perfectly fine. So weird!

I think the explanation was adequate but I would like them to address not being able to access single player content when the network is down.

9/10 for me. I can't stop thinking about it.

Voice acting is brilliant for the most part but the game is slightly let down by the odd bad voice actor, especially those with atrocious accents, which really breaks immersion for me. Innkeeper Betty's attempt at a Northern accent just sounds Jamaican and there have been some absolutely terrible Scottish accents too. I am also not a fan of how some characters have multiple voice actors which is incredibly jarring.

That being said, I am really enjoying the world and the pace of it. Find combat incredibly challenging at the moment but hope I can figure it out and get a little better!

Damn. This might just be my next game then! Been waiting for the next thing to play since finishing Alan Wake 2 as nothing has been taking my fancy.

How does it compare to BG3 in terms of the impact of your actions on the development of the story? Is there much replay value?

at 00:47 there is a date of 3/12/2024 on the train time board which some are suggesting might be a tease at their next showcase...

I am still excited to get the pro. If I didn't have a 55" 4K TV with hdmi 2.1 and VRR I might give it a pass, but I'm a sucker for having the latest gadget so it was a bit of an easy sell for me. I do value graphics a lot and so I am happy to pay for that improvement.

This was a great game. Very sad indeed.

@Moj500 No, I am talking on behalf of myself. If people are excited about extra content then I'm pleased for them. I purchased and finished the game and for me additional content isn't going to get me interested in it again.

This game had a lot of potential but unfortunately fell massively short. The story was tedious and the gameplay was incredibly dull after several hours of playing and I don't think additional content is going to improve any of that.

Great month for Monkey Island alone!

Dragon Age might just be the first game I purchase for the PS5 Pro.

I did find Tsushima incredibly repetitive with a boring empty world for the most part. Stunning setting but let down by the lack of variety. If they can address that then I may dip in, but we shall see!

@BecauseBecause A remastered Curse of Monkey Island would be fantastic! I replayed the entire series before Return came outand Curse would look fantastic with higher resolution and some polish!

@MrPeanutbutterz thank god there is somebody on the same page as me. I found the writing absolutely excruciating and the characters so unlikeable and two dimensional.

Played it when I first got my PS5 and found it an absolute slog. No idea why they are remastering this when Sony seemed cold on it.

Up there as one of the best adventure games of all time, holding joint first place with Monkey Island! I have lost count of how many times I’ve played this and how many devices I’ve played this on, and so I’ll likely purchase again.

It's a deliberately ambiguous comment which neither says there is or is not some kind of deal and for everyone to just assume this means an exclusivity deal has been struck is just wild. To me it smacks of Microsoft diverting attention away from their own shortcomings.

After hearing some positive things I did give it a go and I could not get into it no matter how hard I tried. Did not get beyond Team DM mode and that felt very ordinary. Perhaps the other modes are better but I am turned off by what I’ve played already and deleted it fairly immediately.

Mine wasn't working in the UK on ios but force closed the app and re-opened as @WizzNL suggested and I can now access it.

If it was a PS Portal that could stream PS5 and play ps4 games natively, then that wouldn’t necessarily be so bad.

I don’t know when these companies will learn that cut scenes are not what people want to see. I do think the reception may have been a little less cold had they not spent a third of the show on one single game, with mostly cut scenes.

There were a handful of nice looking games, with astrobot obviously being top dog there. I’d say it was about a 6-7 and more or less as I’d have expected.

Fantastic. Just bought it … 🥲

Would have played it if the ps+ version got the update. Fingers crossed they make it available

Played the first after it was included in one month on PS+ and it really took me by surprise. Absolutely loved it! Can’t wait for a sequel.

Hollow Knight is one of my favourite metroidvanias, and possibly even sits within my top 10 games, ever. I cannot wait for this.

Got Prince of Persia! Been waiting to work through my backlog a bit but for that price I just had to grab it.

Man, been so close to buying this on a number of occasions. Very good addition. Can’t wait to play it.

A 9 playing with friends, perhaps an 8 when playing with not so vocal randoms. A lot of the joy comes from sharing the experience with those on the mic!

Astrobot is definitely one of the biggest gems of this whole PS5 console generation. A full-sized game would be fantastic and I would drop good money for that.

Could not stand the Medium and how on the nose it was, so I don't have particularly high hopes that these guys can pull it off, but we shall see.

Loving this a lot. Been playing mostly 3 player with 2 of my pals and man, haven't cried laughing playing a game in such a long time. It's a ton of fun and as the difficultly increases it just gets more and more ridiculous and more more and entertaining.

I have done a few missions solo but it definitely loses that magic. A couple of times I've played with randoms have been great. Even though people aren't speaking on mics there is still that sense of team work and helping each other out, which is nice.

Steam reviews for the PC version are quite mixed at the moment - some people are experiencing a lot of crashes to desktop, and a lot of people have issues with the anti-cheat software that comes in the PC version. Apparently there are some progression paywalls also, which is a bit disappointing if true.

I'm planning on picking this up over the weekend - am interested to see how it reviews!

This is wiiiiild

Anyone else get Legacy of Kain: Blood Omen vibes from V? I was sure it was a remake until they announced the name.

I thought it was mostly very good. Wasn’t so interested in Stellar Blade before today but it showed off very well! Judas looks amazing also. DS2 looked great and as somebody who has never played, or really had any interest in DS1, it did make me consider giving DS1 a go.

I have to say, I didn’t think much to the graphics of Rise of the Ronin.

Best month in ages. Super pleased!

Didn’t like the first game at all but I am planning on picking this up, as soon as I’m done with BG3. It came out at a tough time with lots of great games to compete with so unsurprisingly sales would be down. I’m sure there are many like me who plan on playing once they work through their backlog.
