I don't buy the game elbut every few years, but this is the first I've been excited about in a long time because I've wanted returns of MW2 maps. Maybe it is just DLC of MWII, but I never played it so that's not a deterrant. It's still a 5 year jump for me.
I'm having fun and game reviews can't tell me otherwise.
Surprised Cold War is still up there, but honestly Vanguard was not my personal favorite, so I'm glad it still had an audience. Although, the PS+ Essential inclusion may contribute to its success.
I think the data is just a little skewed since it doesn't separate folks who have a PS5 vs those who don't. So on a Playstation website, of course most folks already have one and won't upgrade.
While I'm glad they've retracted it for people who played in the last year, I'm concerned for folks that 1) played before the crossplay June date and 2) never played at all will still be required to provide their number. If they have prepaid, it may still be problematic and bar them from participating.
Hope they continue fixing it, as I was long forward to this game.
I mean this just sounds like Smash Bros Ultimate and other games. That doesn't seem like too high of a limit to achieve them all.
I remember playing OW for the first time and having to pick the same person intentionally because it was so daunting to try anyone else out in a match for the first time.
Glad they can turn it around. 20 million is still a lot by any measure, but does this figure count extant copies only, or do the ones returned count in this number since they were "sold"?
Edit: I've been informed the returns were only a small percentage, and therefore would not dramatically impact this impressive figure.
I guess the meme never made its way to me. I had been looking forward to this for some of the same reasons it is being praised. I guess I'm glad I haven't been following it so closely.
Normally I don't play betas because I want a completed product, but this game will get consistent updates so I'm not too worried. I'll be happy to download.
This is a game I've always meant to pick up, but never had the time to. It always seemed interesting but not as urgent as other releases to me, so I feel like I've missed the train on this game, sadly.
Was inches away from purchasing Battle for Bikini Bottom, so I'm thrilled it's a part of this list. I may not beat it but it will scratch my 3d platformer itch, just like the original did. Miles better than The Flying Dutchman PS2 game.
For being free to play, what do I have to lose. I'm not going to buy any costumes, and if I don't like it I'll delete it. If I do like it, then I get to crush my enemies as Shaggy or "mage" Bugs Bunny.

Wow, never played the top 2 games of all time. I guess I should dive in.

Re: Disney CEO Reportedly Being Pressured to Double Down on Gaming
I'm all for whichever answer gives me Epic Mickey 3 faster.
Re: Preview: Forspoken PS5 Feels Like a More Magical inFAMOUS
Definitely excited for this, and hoping this will be the first PS5 game I get.
Re: Horizon Forbidden West DLC Takes Aloy to the Burning Shores Only on PS5
But what about folks who have the PS4 version on a PS5? Are they able to play the game?
Re: Overwatch 2 Racks Up More Than 35 Million Players in Its First Month
Once they dropped the phone requirement I picked it up and I'm enjoying the new heroes more than I thought I would.
Re: Don't Panic, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Won't Require a Phone Number on PS5, PS4
Good. I hope to get this game eventually now, but wouldn't have purchased if this hadn't been updated. Glad to hear.
Re: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Will Also Require a Linked Phone Number In Order to Play
Does it have to be Modern Warfare? What about having a Cold War, Vanguard, or Warzone account?

Re: PS Plus Essential PS5, PS4 Games for October 2022 Announced
I don't have any of these, so Superhot and Hot Wheels looks like a good time to me.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Tops 20 Million Copies Sold

Re: Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3 Gears Up on PS5, PS4 with Over 40 Playable Characters
I think the 2nd one reviewed rather well, so I hope this continues the trend.
Re: Round Up: Forspoken Previews Prove It's More Than a Meme
I guess the meme never made its way to me. I had been looking forward to this for some of the same reasons it is being praised. I guess I'm glad I haven't been following it so closely.
Re: You Don't Care, But Just Dance 2023 Is Strutting to PS5
The songs actually look pretty good so far this year. Might pick it up on sale eventually.
Re: Where to Pre-Order Hogwarts Legacy Deluxe and Collector's Editions for PS5, PS4
Has there been any PS5 exclusive features? I'd like to purchase on PS4 but want to make sure the game is still consistent across platforms.
Re: Riders Republic, Skull & Bones Will Have In-Game Events to Highlight Climate Issues
I haven't been following these titles, but that does pique my interest.
Re: Overwatch 2 Beta: Dates, Times, and How to Play
Normally I don't play betas because I want a completed product, but this game will get consistent updates so I'm not too worried. I'll be happy to download.
Re: Final Fantasy XV Hits 10 Million Units Sold Worldwide
This is a game I've always meant to pick up, but never had the time to. It always seemed interesting but not as urgent as other releases to me, so I feel like I've missed the train on this game, sadly.
Re: Best PS5 Exclusive Games
Do these count as exclusives when I own most of them on PS4? Or are these trying to be "Sony exclusives"?
Re: Kingdom Hearts 4 Revealed, No Date or Platforms Given
Strelitzia looks neat. I'm not sure I've followed the story completely since Unchained came out, but as long as I'm having fun, do I care?
Re: Rumour: PS Plus PS5, PS4 Games for April 2022 Leaked Early
Was inches away from purchasing Battle for Bikini Bottom, so I'm thrilled it's a part of this list. I may not beat it but it will scratch my 3d platformer itch, just like the original did. Miles better than The Flying Dutchman PS2 game.
Re: State of Play Showcase for Hogwarts Legacy Coming This Thursday
Finally! I've been waiting on news for ages. I'm fine with delays so long as the final product is superb. Here's hoping!
Re: Uncharted's Nate Drake, Chloe Frazer Gliding to Fortnite on PS5, PS4
So Tom Holland gets in this game twice?
Re: Harry Potter Game Hogwarts Legacy Allegedly in Trouble on PS5, PS4
As much as I want this game to come out soon, I would rather have it delayed and be great than rushed and be terrible.
Something of this creativity probably won't be pitched again if the game flops.
Plus my backlog of games appreciates the time in between new purchases.
Re: Warner Bros Announces MultiVersus, a Free-to-Play, Smash-Like Platform Fighter
For being free to play, what do I have to lose. I'm not going to buy any costumes, and if I don't like it I'll delete it. If I do like it, then I get to crush my enemies as Shaggy or "mage" Bugs Bunny.
It's an all-win scenario.
Re: Review: inFAMOUS (PlayStation 3)
First. 12 years later. Still a quality game though.
Re: PS Store Leaks Destiny 2: The Witch Queen DLC for 22nd February
As someone who never played Destiny, I can't even tell what's supposed to be a spoiler above. I guess I'm not the target demo.
Re: Some PS3 Games Supposedly No Longer Downloading Patches
Do we know if PS3 updates will still be manually downloadable once the shop shuts down?
