@KidRyan It is a Peace Walker lite with a simplified recruit mechanism. I really enjoyed the story in Portable Opps. The story was not written by Kojima so some fans say it is not canon but it doesn't really contradict anything.
It is buffling if the collection is a PS5 exclusive. The classic games should be available in PS4, PC, Switch etc. That said I am a huge fan of the series and looking forward to play them again.
I see people asking ask for Vita 2 but come on, as much as I would also love it, nobody would buy it and Sony would quietly abandon it.
A device like Project Q would make some sense if it was cheap and you could so cloud of 5g streaming or some sort of direct connection, without wifi, like the Wii U or the Vita.
@KidRyan Yes, it is very possible since there is not PS4 or PS5 version. Personally though I hate this game and I would very much prefer Portable Opps.
No cloud streaming or streaming via 5g network... It looks way bad though, no looking as iconic as the Vita. I am waiting for the price. One could argue that the Steam Deck makes those devices irrelevant, although I have not tried PS4/PS5 streaming on my Deck yet.
Final Fantasy is my favourite game series of all time. That said I was hoping that 11 and 14 would not be main games since I have never played them and I will probably never play them. Sounds bizarre not having played main games from your favourite series.
@GeneJacket To be fair the discussion shifted from this but what I and some others said still stands. Guest characters from unrelated IPs are not needed in Mortal Kombat and a lot of fans don't want them since MK has enough diverse and iconic characters on it own. So, a part of the fans prefer characters from the series backlog and not guest characters.
@WallyWest I never really liked the Suicide Squad characters but it may just be me. The concept was interesting though. I keep forgetting that there is a second Suicide Squad film, I may have to watch it. I have watched the first two Guardians of the Galaxy films. I don't like them that much. I have not read the respective comics so I don't know if this is present in the source material but in comic book I don't like them being a joke when the characters are constantly joking and they don't treat a serious situation as a serious situation. The Avergers films, the Snyder films, the recent Batman movie didn't have this issue and I enjoy them a lot more. I don't like this joking/self parodying/satirical stuff.
Amazon Prime is not available in my country but, starting from when Amazon released Lord of the Rings, they offer only the video service at a lower price. I am not sure if they have all their shows available since they slowly translate and add them. I may have to check them.
@WallyWest To be honest I simply don't watch much stuff snd do not follow the relevant news. I personally watch only Marvel and DC comic stuff and I even missed that Peace Maker had a show. He and the rest of the Suicide Squad are some of the most bland characters ever so I don't think I would watch it anyway. And since the Arrowverse ends and most Marvel shows seem to be more comedic than they should I may run out of stuff to watch.
@Totheteeth I couldn't have said it better myself. Fans ask for old characters to return and get Rambo and Terminator instead while iconic characters from the Mortal Kombat games are not in some of the decent games. As a fan there are some more stuff I don't gat like the de-sexualising characters or making them act like idiots. And also don't getting me started on Ed trolling the fans.
@Gooseman42 The shows may be good but why would I have to watch a show to understand a character in a totally unrelated IP? It is not the same universe. I get that I may have to watch Iron Man to better enjoy the Avengers but to watch a show in a streaming platform that is not even available worldwide to get why a character no one is interested appears in Mortal Kombat instead of Cyrax, for example, makes no sense. I could get one and only guest character if it was iconic like Kratos or Joker but Peace Maker is not needed, Mortal Kombat has Striker which seems similar.
Edit: So, I saw the characters that are already confirmed. There are many iconic characters like Sonya that have not been announced yet we have Peace Maker announced. I don't get it
@WallyWest To be honest I have also no idea what those shows are and who those characters are. I vagely remember this Peacemaker from an old Suicide Squad comic but still they are not known and unimportant. It is not that they would have the Flash as guest.
Previous Mortal Kombat games had Joker and RoboCop but I don't care about those guest characters. Even though I don't like the direction of the characters Mortal Kombat has enough interesting and diverse characters its own.
Why do we need vuest characters in a game with tons of main characters that we still don't know if they are in the game? To be honest I don't know any of them!
I love the series however, I cannot really recommend it because I truly think that you have to play from Sky 1. Also, the lore and what actually happens doesn't make that much sense, even in an 'jrpg anime world'. However, the continuation in the story will keep you immersed and it is cool to see a native PS4 or PS5 3D model from characters introduced in PSP sprites.
So, my suggestion start from the beginning and choose versions that include the fast forward button since the games move VERY SLOWLY. I rushed all games two years ago before the release of Cold 4 and had a great time.
@BeerIsAwesome You are right. I was under the impression that the psn versions of the classic Oddworld games were published by Sony themselves. Also there is also Resident Evil Director's Cut by Capcom. Still there are many major publishers that don't release their games.
For PSP it is the same as PSone, more or less. I have the old PSP versions of Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror and Ridge Racer 2. First was free, second only available if you subscribe.
The usual question is what will happen in the Classics line, i.e. if the games are free if you have the previous digital version or if you can buy them separately.
So far it seems somewhat consistent that you can buy games by Sony, and not buy games by Namco while other publishers don't care that much to release their old games.
Although, to be honest, I only pay the base tier for cloud saves.
I beat the base game in my PS4 and the DLC in the PS5. In the base game I faced two bizarre issues.
When I got an Overdrive for a cauldron, while the elevator was going up, Aloy automatically fell from the edge in a black abyss!! Restarting from a checkpoint worked and I lost no progress. Sometimes, when it was snowing the frame rate tanked. Restarting fixed it, even if it was still snowing.
As for the DLC I fell off the geometry both in land and sea a couple of times and I had to randomly jump around to get out!!!!
Too bad you cannot fix a bad story with a patch though.
I am not getting fooled again to buy MK12 at launch. I will wait a year to get the Ultimate version. That is unless they somehow make the characters uglier...
That being said I would prefer it if the whole HFW was PS5 exclusive. That said, since the base game had a PS4 version and we only have one piece of DLC it kind of stinks for PS4 players to not be able to play it. And we all know that the complete game will be Steam Deck verified in a couple of months.
That said I have not beaten the DLC yet. I hope it recrifies the dump and anticlimactic ending of the base game.
@Sil_Am At least in my region the physical releases on switch if 7 and 9 are codes in a box without a card.
I would love to have the 13 trilogy on PS4. I love those games. They still need some work to be ported. In Xbox the bc program needs minimal work from developers.
I would also want ro have The After Years in some point
I would love to upgrade but to be honest everything below 4tb seems very low and those ssd drives are still expensive. I use an external 4tb hdd to back up PS5 games and store PS4 ones but of course the stupid PS5 os doesn't update the games for some reason. I would love to buy the internal 4tb ssd and move the extrnal hdd permanently to my PS4 though.
I am a huge Final Fantasy but come on... This game will be playable in PCs next year and it will also be Steam Deck verified. Also, they kind of said that they tried to make FF16 run on PS4...
Moreover, Sony ports first party games to PCs with mechanical drives and gaming performance slightly better than PS4 or verifies them for the Steam Deck...
Am a huge Final Fantasy fan so this is way late. I have already bought and beaten all six games in my Steam Deck. I would get a PS4 retail version if it was widely available though...
I love my Steam Deck. It is my favourite platform. Even with its flows I enjoyed my PS Vita and the Steam Deck is as better as a successor as it gets. It is not underpowered like the Switch and it has first party Sony games and it is the best platform for indie games and jrpg games, just like the Vita. Also, again like the Vita, it is very easy to set up emulators, you can use it as a PC etc.
I see a lot of love for Resident Evil Code Veronica. I am not a huge fan of it. However, a remake has to be a lot different. This game has Steve, one of the worst characters in RE history. He acts like an idiot, even for videogame logic standards, and there is a gross scene when he tries to kiss Claire or something while she is asleep in the plane. Also, the whole Alfred concept was bizarre even back in the day. I don't even know what to say about it. From a gameplay perspective there are ways to soft lock you out of the game and loosing access to weapons in the final portion of the game.
I enjoy RE4 Remake in my PS4 and I would love to see a Remake of both Dino Crisis and RE Code Veronica, but I would prefer a next gen only RE9 new game.
@ShogunRok To be honest this article is misleading and not correct to be honest. I have played both PS4 and PS5 versions and the PS4 port is decent for what it is. It suffers from the same problems that more third party cross gen titles suffer but unstable framerate and poor load times were present in a plethora of PS4 third party titles during the generation. And it plays better than other cross gen titles like Callisto Protocol or Stranger of Paradise.
This is no exception but the RE Engine scales well. RE Village also plays very well on PS4. Moreover, all cross gen Sony titles (GT7, HFW and GoWR) play quite well in the PS4.
I would much prefer if RE4 Remake was a PS5 only title but it is not a title that is held back from PS4.
Sonic 2 first boss and some leaps of faith in later levels are present in the Game Gear version but I don't care that much to be honest. I really love that some of my favourite games are released again. It would be great if they expanded Sonic Origins more by adding the Master System ports, the Mega Drive versions of Spinball and 3D and the Knucles game for 32X though.
I play RE4 Remake on an original launch PS4. It plays great for what it is. There is some slowdown and load times if you lose but it is no different than other non Sony games really. Village also played very good in PS4.
Who plays this games nowadays?
Anyway from the Gran Turismo games I have played this is one of the worst, progress wise. I always thought I didn't have enough credits for anything. However, PS2 was combatible with Action Replay ...
I beat the game and got the platinum in PS4 and I got the platinum when I imported the save in PS5. This is way cool. You can do it in the Resident Evil games and in God of War Ragnarok
Nintendo closes their store and nobody cares yet the internet exploded when Sony said they would close their PS3/P/Vita stores... I was one that felt annoyed and bought some psn cards to buy the ps1 classics I hadn't...
In any case I don't know those EA games and have backed up my 3DS and Wii U.
@Quintumply Thanks for clearing this up. Yes, seems like Sony has no problem letting you buy its classic games while also offering them for free if you have the PS3/P/Vita versions while Namco does not for some reason.
Too bad no other publishers seem interested in PS1 classics. The only game from other publisher I recall is Resident Evil, that you can also buy separately from the subscription.
Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror is shown for free for me since I have the original version. For Ridge Racer Type 4 and Ridge Racer 2 it asks me to upgrade my membership, even though I have the original psn versions.
I love GZ the map is interesting and it was the last true stealth Metal Gear game.
However, Kojima contradicts himself? Or I misremember? Back in the day I am pretty sure he said it was Konami that pressured him to release Ground Zeros because Phantom Pain was way delayed...
@Lebest Still I don't like the Crossbell arc but I don't want to spoil why. Generally speaking the same things keep happening to this city over and over again to the point when the writes seem that they don't know what to do and repeat the same things. There are more stuff but we will get to major spoilers.
The poll does not have the option "I have played the fan translation ages ago"😉
In any case I am a huge trails fan but I consider all this Crossbell arc non sense for a lack of better term, even from the video game logic point of view
The thing I want to know is if you can buy the games separately and if they are free if you have the previous versions.
As for the actual classic games in general I wanted more. Seems like, with the exception of Resident Evil, all other PS1 and PSP games are from Sony or Namco. They should expand the catalogue a bit more.
@Robocod yes, there is a driving stage with Haddock's car in Prisoners of the Sun but only in the SNES version. In Game Boy it is replaced with a cutscene with digitized comic book panels.
Yeah, Haddocks' comic relief scenes are some of the best. My favourites are those with Madame Castafiore!
@Robocod I have some of the Inforgames games from back then. All of their comic book games were fan. They made two Tintin games. The first, Tintin in Tibet, was released in Mega Drive, Game Gear, SNES and Game Boy and was also ported to the Game Boy Color. The second, based on the comics you mentioned, was called Tintin Prisoners of the Sun and was released in SNES, Game Boy and Game Boy Color. I love those games, I really like the comic book panes and challenging gameplay.
Also no Haddock or Tournesol in Cigars of the Pharoah, they were introduced way later.
This begs the question why the chose Cigars of the Pharoah. To be honest I am a huge Tintin fan and this comic was one of the worst, even though it does some interesting world building. This, and its sequel, The Blue Lotus tackle some more serious themes like drug smuggling, mental health, war etc. Also, they have been criticized for stereotypical portraits of non European characters.

Re: PS5's Remote Play Portable Will Allegedly Launch in November
@Stormageddon Yikes, this is as much as a Steam Deck (410 € here). If this is indeed the case Project Q is dead on arrival.

Re: Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, and 3 Launch on PS5 in the Master Collection
@OrtadragoonX I think they will base it on the HD collection that includes the MSX games.
It would be cool if the ports of the older games could be on PS4, Switch and PC/Steam Deck also.
Vol.2 Could have MGS4, Peace Walker and updated versions of the two MGS5 games...
Re: Final Fantasy Could Ditch Numbers for Future Instalments
Final Fantasy is my favourite game series of all time. That said I was hoping that 11 and 14 would not be main games since I have never played them and I will probably never play them. Sounds bizarre not having played main games from your favourite series.

In any case I am a huge trails fan but I consider all this Crossbell arc non sense for a lack of better term, even from the video game logic point of view
Re: PS Plus Premium Subs Treated to a Trio of Retro Treats Next Week
The thing I want to know is if you can buy the games separately and if they are free if you have the previous versions.
As for the actual classic games in general I wanted more. Seems like, with the exception of Resident Evil, all other PS1 and PSP games are from Sony or Namco. They should expand the catalogue a bit more.
Re: Tintin Reporter - Cigars of the Pharoah Uncovers Adventure of Epic Proportions on PS5, PS4
@Robocod yes, there is a driving stage with Haddock's car in Prisoners of the Sun but only in the SNES version. In Game Boy it is replaced with a cutscene with digitized comic book panels.
Yeah, Haddocks' comic relief scenes are some of the best. My favourites are those with Madame Castafiore!
Re: Tintin Reporter - Cigars of the Pharoah Uncovers Adventure of Epic Proportions on PS5, PS4
@Robocod I have some of the Inforgames games from back then. All of their comic book games were fan. They made two Tintin games. The first, Tintin in Tibet, was released in Mega Drive, Game Gear, SNES and Game Boy and was also ported to the Game Boy Color. The second, based on the comics you mentioned, was called Tintin Prisoners of the Sun and was released in SNES, Game Boy and Game Boy Color. I love those games, I really like the comic book panes and challenging gameplay.
Also no Haddock or Tournesol in Cigars of the Pharoah, they were introduced way later.
This begs the question why the chose Cigars of the Pharoah. To be honest I am a huge Tintin fan and this comic was one of the worst, even though it does some interesting world building. This, and its sequel, The Blue Lotus tackle some more serious themes like drug smuggling, mental health, war etc. Also, they have been criticized for stereotypical portraits of non European characters.
