You're calling gatekeeper, and trying to belittle someone else's opinion?

They've lost a sale from me then.

Thanks for the spoiler.

Not gonna buy a game at £70 again after the SNES/Mega Drive days.
Too much of a backlog, and anyway they already make profit if it sells at £40 due to the higher sales than back then.
Just being greedy.

Typical! Always left out of the good stuff.
😒

That's unacceptable, a game of that level shouldn't need a day one patch never mind a day zero one.

As much as I liked the original, that's a no from me. Not supporting physical releases that don't even include a playable copy of the game. Disgraceful.

@KundaliniRising333
In regards to the icons you could turn them off, pick and choose or keep them on depending on preference.

Oddly I'm rushing to complete the game, I've only got until midnight before my PlayStation plus discounted subscription ends.
Great game for £5...if I can finish it in time that is! 😁
Edit: Finished. On the credits now, excellent game!

I have Sackboy, already otherwise that would have interested me, but I only subbed for one month for a fiver to play Forbidden West, so I've easily got my monies worth, just need to make sure I finish it before my month ends!

Totally not getting it, the original was a huge time sink, really had to drag myself away from it!

Sounds very ambitious, maybe too much so, either I still don't like James' new face, too pointy and jarring.

Hopefully they've been working on another adaptation of a well loved IP or another Lego City as well, as I'm not personally interested in this.

So at least twice that for me, or 15 years+ if it's anything like FFXII!

Only knew him from the Horizon series and I'm playing Forbidden West at the moment.
It seems by all accounts he was a good guy, really good to his fans and it came out of the blue. Really sad when someone goes before their time, but even much so if they were a good force in the world.

'Gate keeping' I don't have a stake in either side of the current discussion, but I really wish people would use their own words to get their message across, rather than copying phrases that are overused.

Oddly enough I remember getting the GameCube copy of Resi 4 way earlier than it's release date thanks to the local GameStop messing about.

@sanderson72
Thanks for the help with that.
It's a fat 80 gig model, I stupidly allowed Sony to send me one to replace my original fully backwards compatible 60 gig one after it totally died a month after launch.
It might be too much for me to handle some of the more technical ones, but as I have a lot of recordings on there and playlists, I might see about getting a professional to look it over if there's a chance it can be saved.

I can't even get my PS3 to come on. I found the red light flashing one day and now if I try and turn it on it turns itself off and the flashing starts again.
Anyone any ideas?

Wasn't really interested in those games, but did resubscribe to take advantage of the £5 top tier for a month, not bad for a month's rental of Forbidden West.😁

I like open world classic JRPGs like the obvious example.
But if you can't make a triple A game without loss of fidelity or bloating it with meaningless collectables, then it needs to be more linear or with separate large areas.

@Hoodie718
Well it sounds closer to something like beat saber than anything to do with drums which is the intended experience.
With the issues of bad collision detection and lack of properly licenced tracks it sounds poorly made.

Maybe a pair of those novelty drums sticks that make sounds when you shake them along to tunes the player actually knows and likes, might be an equivalent if not better alternative for some 😀

@Hoodie718
Sounds a pretty useless experience then.

So how do you play bass drum and operate the hi-hat?

@UltimateOtaku91
Thanks!

@UltimateOtaku91
Where are you renting it from?
Thought that whole thing was long gone.

@TrickyDicky99
I've 2 launch day controllers and regularly have them plugged into a speaker when I'm playing on a monitor, I've never had that problem with either of them. Maybe I'm just lucky.

Just to say again, the demo's a good chance to try it if you haven't liked the look of it before, I think the character's will mellow later and hold the square button to grapple...something the demo doesn't actually explain.

I wasn't that interested in the game until I played the demo, they could have said to hold square to use the grapple magic and it is a bit rough, but I found it very enjoyable and completed it.
Granted Frey and Cuff butt heads and she comes across as overly snarky, but she's supposed to be young and overly confident and I'm sure both characters will improve along the journey and become much less irritating after a bit.

Really looking forward to this more than the Crisis Core Remaster

Saving it for Christmas.
I got the themed PSP bundle when it came out, but got annoyed by the random slot combat that nixed any kind of personal skill. Have they fixed that?

As much as I love the game, this seems a bit of a bad idea.

Not sure I like the sound of bigger and more expansive, sounds like another bloatfest with too much filler like Horizon and recent Assassin's Creed games.

@Grimwood
But can they make it as good as previous installments especially V without certain key members?
It's not assured, so that's why they're still relying on GTAV

@WallyWest
I never said they weren't attempting to make 6, just that they're obviously still not letting go of the money making potential of V.

It just is another example of how scared they are of making GTA6 and are still leaning into the money making of GTAV.

No thanks! Even the standard edition is too much at £65

Delivered today, but saving it for Christmas.

One of the few announcements of the past few years I actually felt excited about almost like the old days.

It's clear 2023 is going to be an excellent year for games, just a pity more of the Spring ones were pushed back from before Christmas, could have spread things out a bit more.

Still struggling to finish the last Atlantis chapter of Odyssey. As good as the DLC is in this case, I guess I'm gonna be avoiding any AC games for a while.

If there's anything from Kojima it might cap it.

Don't know if that was such a good thing to be honest.

No sympathy here.

I'm just glad I didn't renew after my first year of owning a PS5, it's been terrible in all guides since then.

Sounds like Final Fantasy Is ruined even further thanks to Square Enix always chasing what they think is on trend rather than creating something new and different.

Pity. Not for me unfortunately.

Just wondering if they're copying the Ticket Master/Live Nation 'Dynamic pricing' model, to beat the scalpers, by screwing over the customers and selling the controller's at the highest price they think the market can take.

@Fight_Teza_Fight
Fair enough, would have been happy enough with a film, but considering how horrific Higurashi can be it would be interesting, they might be throwing everything at the wall and see what sticks in this day and age, psychological horror or just plain nasty stuff.

I like the fact they have multiple projects going, they can at least pick the best people to go with after this.
