It was less than 24hrs. People asking for free games or any sort of compensation are just entitled brats at this stage. Continued my Cyberpunk playthrough for the majority of the downtime. Minor issues if anything.
2042 improved massively after a while. It's clear a lot of folk didn't bother checking it out properly. Why not just jump on the hate bandwagon instead, right? 😂
@Dalamar they did, they just don't account for the blatant entitlement of some of their users when it comes to these lineups. Want a specific game, buy it. Otherwise patience is a virtue.
Knockout City was a fun platinum but I won't be going for this one. Played a good few matches yesterday and while the premise is cool, it's just not my cup of tea. The Marco Polo mini game some guys were playing in my lobby was funny though!
Did this last month and put 74hrs into Jedi Survivor. Expired on Saturday and I renewed again for £1. Come home from work last night and although my account says the subscription is active. I have no access to JS and I'm being told to sign up again. No support at all.
@Khwarezm89 because they got so much crap for the games being so far away when teased. There's no winning with today's consumers. If it's not want, want, want, it's gimme now, gimme now, gimme now.
@wiiware there's 12 months in a year... No need for the depressed act! There's been plenty of content and will continue to be. Some of you lot are ridiculous.
The only time I had any real gain in points was when I renewed ps plus extra every year so now it's just gonna be a waste of time and any interest I had in ps stars is gonna slowly disappear because I don't purchase many games at all these days.
Why bring the games into it? Other than it being headline bait? The film will find it's audience just like the games have for the better part of two decades.
Gave up a while back now. It's been a couple months at least. Started getting bored daily with it. Got too repetitive eventually. Especially the major missions.
Personally think Tomb Raider looks and plays great. Never played the original so it's all new to me. Can't say I've noticed the blurryness. Especially on an OLED.
@somnambulance this hasn't been rushed like redfall blatantly was. The preview footage alone knocks redfall back in it's hole. Have a little more sense. Ridiculous assumption.
So much ignorance in this comment section. It's like you've all sampled it for yourselves. At least wait till the beta before declaring it 'dEAD oN ArRiVal'...
Definitely of the opinion there should be a platinum. Apex Legends should've had one back in the beginning. But as for Valorant, it's a breath of fresh air. Enjoying it a LOT.
Other than encouraging hate and engaging the trolls, what's the point of these articles still? It's common practice around the gaming industry. These pot stirring 'news' articles are becoming very stale.
Finished off the Dave The Diver platinum during the week there so I've started Dredge after it had dlc in DTD. I've also took advantage of the ps plus discount and upgraded to premium for the rest of the sub. Started the Sly series for the very first time. Also took advantage of the trial for topspin 2k25! Decent!
@Hoodie718 the games been available for months exclusively in apple arcade so it's not been 'rushed' at all from what I can gather. If anything, it should've been made available on consoles a while back.

Re: More People Are Playing the Original Horizon Zero Dawn Than Its Remaster on PC
Literally a third of the price of the remaster. Clickbait article at best.
Re: Mini Review: Parcel Corps (PS5) - A Speedy Dispatch, Not a Special Delivery
Can always tell the quality of a review when they decide to hop on and focus on bugs.
The contradictory 'good variety of challenges' positive and 'repetitive gameplay' negative also gave me a good laugh.
That aside. I'll be waiting for a sale or ps plus.

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for September 2024?
Best month in a while for me. Plucky Squire and Under the waves top the list.

Re: Valorant Enters Open Beta on PS5, Up for Download Now
@UltimateOtaku91 not good at it so let's bash it! The game is a joy to play and has been from the start of the closed beta.
Re: There's Already Concern Over Concord's Player Count as Open Beta Begins
Had no issues getting a match on the console beta. The generic bandwagon hate this game is getting, is getting a little sad and stale.
Re: EA Sports FC 25 Kicks Off in September on PS5, PS4

Re: Preview: Ignore The Haters, Concord Is a Good PS5 Shooter We Can't Wait to Play More Of
The hate bandwagon is beyond cringy. It's just lame at this point.
I've put a few hours into the beta. Loving Lennox and his gunplay. Feels great. Even managed to get his variant which is probably the better version.
It's all good hating if you've played it and despise it but hating without giving it a go makes your opinion irrelevant.

Re: Net Yourself a Shoal of Free Dave the Diver PSN Avatars on PS5, PS4
My most recent platinum. Loved it. I was already repping it with my profile picture on psn but rocking one of these now too.

Re: Hands On: Valorant's PS5 Beta Is Impressive and Unlike Anything Else on Console
Put over 24hrs in already. Love it. Great for a bit of chill. Wish they'd bring cs:go to console too. This game proves it'd work.

Re: Valorant Is Another Free PS5 FPS with a Rubbish Trophy List
@windxtravelerx gotta echo that. Natural trophies are a grind but there's no funny business like you say.
From what I've heard and experienced. The console version is going down a storm. It's been adapted really well by Riot.
Re: Valorant Is Another Free PS5 FPS with a Rubbish Trophy List
Definitely of the opinion there should be a platinum. Apex Legends should've had one back in the beginning. But as for Valorant, it's a breath of fresh air. Enjoying it a LOT.

Re: Brilliant PS5, PS4 Angling Outing Dredge Adding More Monstrosities on 15th August

Re: Poll: Was Summer Game Fest 2024 Great or a Letdown?
Skate, Horizon Lego and Valorant were all decent for me. Rest I couldn't care for.

Re: Concord Is Sony's Answer to Overwatch, Launches August, Beta Test in July
Personally thought the gunplay looked top notch. I'll try the beta.
Re: PS5, PC Fans Are Trying to Figure Out if Concord Is Free-to-Play
The valorant reference is irrelevant. It's not even playable on consoles.

Re: Soapbox: Once a PS4 Console Exclusive, PS5 Players Are Missing a Visual Stunner in Hellblade 2
Just find it ironic that the majority of reviews have chosen to focus on visuals yet zoned in on The Order's length back on 'PS4'. Crazy.
