Is there a reason Push Square doesn't let you vote on what you're playing each weekend so you can see the results of what's popular now? Like you guys do over on Nintendo Life.
Great device. Use it at home, in the office, weekend trips to family home. Runs like a dream on both streaming and remote play. Gamesharing with a mate definitely keeps the cost of PS+ down. Also means all games are half price between us as we take turns buying games
I come to this website for playstation news. Not fanboys writing whinging articles when a game doesn't get released on their favourite platform. Less of this crap please and thanks.
Shinobi is a great game. I bought it on Switch though so no playstation sale there. As for Sonic, I usually get any Sonic games physical on Switch where I can. And one Kart game is usually enough to keep me happy so Mario takes that slot
Still use my Portal a lot and love it. The form factor is the nicest of any handheld I've ever used. Feels very comfy to play for long periods. Runs great for me too
Just finished it today. Really enjoyed the story. The gameplay of dispatching i found to be a bit of guess work at times but didn't stop me enjoying it
@Northern_munkey I game share with a mate. We split the cost of games. So you can half the price of these games for me. I'm digital only as I use my Portal more than the TV so I've got access to all my games when away from home.
Gonna pick up one or 2 games in this sale for sure
@gaston and if that's your preference, great. Thankfully the Portal provides the option for those who aren't worried about that. More ways to play is better than less ways.
@gaston some people (myself included) don't always have access to the big screen TV at home. My gaming time is probably 80% handheld, 20% on TV. If I want to play a game, cinematic or otherwise, my options are play on Portal or don't play at all. There's no chance I'd ever finish a game as long as DS2 without the Portal.
This is why the Portal is great. More ways to play means more play time. I'd rather play for 10 hours on Portal than 1 hour on the TV.
I'm coming near the end of Expedition 33. Played the last few hours in cinema mode on my PSVR2. What an experience to feel like you're playing a game of that scale in a cinema. Amazing. I think I'm just left with the final battle. Great game. Will be jumping back into Tears of the Kingdom on Switch 2 when I've this completed.
Enjoying the show just fine. Season 1 definitely superior. But it's still worth watching to me. Only played a bit of the first game and none of the second.
@Rich33 I hate the "we will patch it later" mentality and if something good comes out of this i hope it's that this goes away. Is it too much to expect a game is in good working order at launch? People who preorder have essentially become beta testers and the people who wait and get it cheaper get the best experience after all the fixes.
And then you have games like Expedition 33 which just works. Sure there'll be patches but it's all little tweaks, nothing huge. This should be the standard we get of games at launch.
Definitely a game I'm glad I can try at no extra cost thanks to PS+. Not sure if it'll be for me but definitely want to try it out since it's getting such high praise elsewhere.
@Decimateh-xblz for a lot of games I wait for a sale. I'm about 3 years behind most release dates of games I play. Usually make some allowances, like this year I played Astro Bot and Tekken 8. But most other games I played this year released a few years back.
Mostly positive reviews, great to see. I have Gamepass but I hardly use it any more. Probably a stronger chance of me playing this on playstation in a years time or so.
Bought psvr2 yesterday in the sales. I will struggle to ever go back to a normal racing game again after playing GT7. My god. Can't wait to try more stuff out

Re: SEGA's PS5 Games Get Good Reviews, So Why Aren't You Buying Them?
@Captain_Qwark_B-Job fair point, but i only occasionally play the one I have. Two feels excessive. One every 10 years or so will do me 😄

Great to see Portal having decent figures. Love mine, it's allowed me to complete so many games I wouldn't have had the chance to otherwise ♥️

@Balaam_ you avoid games because you don't like the trophy system? Even though you'd probably love the game??
Very strange decision.

Re: 8 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for April 2025 Announced
Happy to see Blue Prince there. A game i definitely want to try out but it might not be for me. So glad not needing to spend extra money on it.
