@Titntin from what I have been reading from players on the sub reddit, the first few hours are all tutorial but they are all saying they are having fun (I know... 2024 and having fun in a video game!). I have been patiently waiting for reviews on this but I feel this is the latest "it is cool to hate" game. So I am going to wait some more, for either big price drop or if it gets added to a sub service. Like I said above, my only worry is Rocksteady's Resources going towards this instead of fully to the next project but I hope they have a plan lol.
Oh yeah, welcome to the internet where you are always wrong 😂
FF7 Rebirth Demo
SH2 Date + Demo
A new VR2 game from Sony Studios would be nice
Edit: And something new from a Sony Studio for the PS5. It is great they are filling gaps with some exclusive 3rd party stuff, but it should be about time we start seeing something from future 1st party studios.
As a Rocksteady fan, my biggest concern about it being a Live Service, is that it will be taking resources away from their next project (just like how Naughty Dog were concerned). I think I will wait for this to either hit PS+ or Game Pass (can see it going here first)
Premium really is a massive con at this point. Massive catalogue of games to port across to PS4/5. I know it takes time and effort to do but I am sure those leaked documents showed that more people are subbed to Premium than Extra....
Patiently waiting for every one to finish it and trade it in, so I can pick it up cheaper. Or until it drops in price. Which ever first, I can wait.... I think
Damn! It is separate apps on the PS5 as well?! I just installed it on my Switch and I thought it was like this to save space... but just wow. Still great games! Diving into Snake Eater tonight
@get2sammyb I am not talking about timed exclusives. The Final Fantasy deals are not timed. They are locked down heavy to the Sony platform.
I just do not like the narrative of people complaining that they can not play X game on the PS5 because of exclusivity whereas Sony has build an entire generation on that model.
Like I said, the only difference is that you could play X game series before (not that there was many outside CoD) and now you cannot.
@Americansamurai1
Yeah very true. Who knows what will happen. Makes a tonne of money, why change it?
@Shepherd_Tallon Oh I totally agree with you. They release CoD every year without fail. As for other games.... the last one was that Crash game and that has vanished. So yes, the second deal is the best hands down
@StrawberryTurtle Sony paid for the exclusivity deal. This came out in the court documents. Also both sides paying devs to stop games being added to Game Pass & Plus. They are both as bad as each other. I would say (need to check facts on this) MS started it first in the 360 era, followed by Sony become exclusive heavy in the PS3 era. This continued in PS4 era as that dominated, followed by Xbox snapping up studios which, (you probably forgot about) Sony did too.
@StrawberryTurtle Final Fantasy 7R, Final Fantasy 16 to name some 3 rd party.
Sony also have their own excusive games that Xbox players cannot play. The only difference is that Activision games use to release on PlayStation, but now they will not (apart from CoD).
Also, have we forgot about Insomniac Games? They published for Xbox then were bought out.
I have never understood the argument "but PlayStation will not have any Activision games...". Just buy an Xbox, just like you would by a PlayStation for their exclusive games!
The game has changed a lot since it was released. Maybe take this review score with a pinch of salt as we have seen many games review badly at launch, but improve greatly over time (especially GaaS titles)
@Shstrick I don’t see the issue. I think it’s cool but Sony promoted Premium to have a collection of classic games including any remasters. And with how terrible Premium currently is, they could have added them. They did the same with Vice City.
I can see the appeal of the missions as it makes you do tasks that you may have not done before but... this is Sony. If history tells us anything, if something is nothing moving quick enough for them, they will drop it fast. I still think that the digital collectables where NFTs at one point (especially with the idea that there will be one item for the first person who Plats a certain game) but they did a U-Turn after the first announcement.
It has not added folders..... 2 big things they need to do to game lists
Make adding easier. You have to go directly to your library to add one at a time (why not the installed tab?) or scroll through hundreds of title if doing multiple (add a search/filter) Allow us to pin them to the home menu!
@Uncharted2007 lol, what was your original comment? From reading through the comments it seems you said it has the worst library of games? It probably was something a little different as it was removed but if not, shame on PS for removing the comment. 🤣
I played this on Gamepass and it is a 9/10 for me. I would not say it is limited for its length as you can keep swapping between the different creatures and keep on leveling them up.
I loved it in the first week but then found the match making is sooooo terrible. Nothing more fun that being a level 10 playing against a team of level 50+
Erm, this is not the first Bethesda game to be removed with short notice. Evil Within was removed without notice and Evil Within 2 was removed shortly after. Wolfenstein II was an ongoing access game at one point, but again, that has gone. It does also say on the PS Now website "Games included in PS Now are subject to change at any time". I think it has happened to other games in the past but cannot remember off the top of my head. I know that site does not show the kill date for the game but it also had FF15 on the list over a month after it was removed.
@Col_McCafferty Is there a need for that? They had an opinion on the game and as humans, we are entitled to that. Not every one agrees.
I myself did not fully enjoy the game as I felt the story was really poorly told, mainly the second part and it is not because I dislike the character you play as before any one says that (getting sick of that comment). I can sort of see why some (mainly the majority) enjoyed the story but for me, it just did not click. The only character I really felt sorry for was Alice 😅
Graphically it was great along with the game play. But the masterpiece part of this game, for me, was the sound design. I have never played a game like it where the use of sound was spot on.
It is a strange case with this game. it is the only game I can think of where having a negative opinion is 'wrong'? Very strange...

Re: Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales Is a Remaster of the 2018 Game with New Content
If this was to release on PS4 it would be stand alone like Lost Legacy. But because it is being released on PS5, makes sense to ship the entire game.
