@Deadlyblack We need an art book for this game!

@HRdepartment Many, many, many hours of fun ahead for you. Enjoy!

@johncalmc I think you should give Requiem a go. It might have more of the balance you're looking for.

@Americansamurai1 Midnight Suns maybe for Ghost Rider's team?

God I can't wait for this game!

Pretty obvious inclusion given the anime theme but she looks awesome.

Sounds good, been really looking forward to this one.

I didn’t really have any issues tonight

@LifeGirl There's a big market for nice art books from games and movies. Sounds like that market does not include you lol.

@Balaam_ Fair point, but games are quite different now.

I honestly think one solution for games might just be to "delay" physical editions until several months even years after release, then drop nice collector's editions with all the patches etc pre-installed.

I need that Collector's Edition oh my god!!!!

@Max_the_German Will depend on the implementation of course but looks like they've thought about all that.

It's quite a stationary game so it should work well in my opinion.

@twitchtvpat That's exactly what's happening.

@Exerion76 I doubt they’ll use it to go from 30 to 60. Like you say this kinda thing works better at higher frame rates and I’m sure they know that.

@Icey664 They better!

@Haruki_NLI Well I mean it has absolutely slowed down. That's just a fact. It can still be a record breaker and have slowed down; both things can be true.

@somnambulance I don't think the Switch 2's lineup has been weak either. I think all you're seeing here is that the console had a record-breaking launch, so it's natural things would start to slow down.

They basically condensed their first year's sales in the first few weeks.

@Ganji We'll definitely be referencing the base PS5 experience in our full review.

Today we've got this base PS5 footage going up and then more general impressions based on PS5 Pro, so trying to cover both bases as best we can.

Hopefully that helps give people the info they need while we work on the full review.

Updated with more of Aaron's thoughts.

@Propaperpusher Sadly we didn't get any PS5 review code prior to release: https://www.pushsquare.com/news/2026/03/site-news-wheres-our-crimson-desert-ps5-review

We now have PS5 review code and we're working on an initial hands on based on PS5 Pro, but review will take some time unfortunately.

Game is huge and we've only just been able to start playing (alongside all of you).

We won't review PC code and label it a PS5 review.

I don't think it looks terrible but it does seem very low resolution. PSSR 2 is really going to be putting in work on this.

@Kienda Haha yeah I'm chuffed!

Love this series. Excited for the fourth movie.

@themightyant @SJR My bad, you're completely correct. I totally forgot they said that!

@LowDefAl We need one of these to hit so we can get new ones to underperform!

@dskatter There's no upgrade path, no. Different publisher.

EDIT: As pointed out below, it turns out I'm completely wrong: https://iningames.com/blogs/news/yu-suzuki-and-inin-games-announce-shenmue-iii-enhanced-unveiling-at-gamescom-2025

"Owners of the original Shenmue III on PS4 and PC will be offered an upgrade path to the Enhanced Edition, with details coming soon."

No further details in THIS announcement, though.

@Nyne11Tyme Hopefully it sells well so they can prove there's a market for it!

@Deadlyblack You must! They're my all-time favourites!

I'm so excited, I ordered that Collector's Edition immediately. My only criticism is that I prefer the box art of the Standard/Special Edition to the one they're using on the Collector's Edition.

... I may have to buy the Switch 2 cartridge as well...

I’ve been thinking about this from the perspective of when we use the ‘PSN’ terminology in our headlines and tags.

I kinda realised we only really use it when we say like “PSN Down” or something. So yeah I guess it is somewhat irrelevant these days.

Still, interesting stuff.

@Brumblescope You've lost me a bit? I think it's great if you play it and make up your own mind?

I hope you really enjoy it.

@4fold I think that's mostly fair and your opinion is just as valid as any other.

@lazarus11 We've only JUST been able to start playing, so we'll have to see how it goes. We'll certainly address it if it's particularly bad on base PS5.

@CptFancyPants Depends on the context you're looking at it with. Clearly it's not a bad game at all, but there's no denying this was shaping up to be the next big thing, so expectations were certainly high.

I think from that context you'd still have to say it's a disappointment. (Doesn't mean it's bad or that people won't really enjoy it!)

It sounds a little bit like I expected, which is maybe doing too much.

I hope everyone who's looking forward to it enjoys it.

Wished we could have brought you our review but we will not play on non-PS5 hardware for reviews. It puts us at a disadvantage sometimes, but we can't in good faith bring you a "PS5 Review" if we didn't play it on PS5. It is what it is.

@CielloArc Not sure they should advertise it? It's one of their best-selling games ever haha.

@Gr8VngnzN4esAngr You're not going to get one lol.

Funny how this is now trending to be one of the PlayStation channel's most watched videos ever lol.

@Fiendish-Beaver Important to note I'm not hating on anything. In fact I've said multiple times now that I appreciate this is still a work in progress, I'm sure the product will improve, and perhaps these are just bad examples.

I'll go back to what I said originally, based on what I've seen so far, I think it is changing the artistic intent for the worse. That's my opinion, and it's not based in outrage because it's what I thought the first time I saw these, long before all the insults and anger started flying.

Whether these are bad examples or will improve I don't know. I can only comment on that when Nvidia releases more examples.

That's my genuine opinion.

@ColdHandGee Hello!

@LifeGirl Sony will never, ever let this license go lol.

To be fair, at least these are good films.

@Veritas7Ax I thought that too! Feels like it came out like a couple of years ago.

Man-Spider?!

@Jacko11 That's fair, I've edited that.

@AhmadSumadi I believe what they've shown so far changes the art style, yes.

Perhaps it's not what they intended, it's bad examples, or it needs further refinement — I don't know. But on the evidence of what they've publicly shown so far, that was my immediate reaction before the backlash even started in earnest.

@Hoodie718 I think the writing of what I've played so far is surprisingly good, so it's possible they may go in that direction and make it work.

I'd just like to see something less predictable.

@Neither_scene This is one of the biggest stories in gaming of the year so far I'd argue, it'd be crazy to ignore it.

AMD has been playing catch-up to Nvidia for ages, and you'd be foolish to think they're not exploring similar technology. (Heck, I daresay Sony itself is even looking at stuff like this.)

I would agree with you its tangential, but it is still relevant to the wider context of gaming, just like how if Nintendo introduces a new paradigm like the Switch, that has an impact on PlayStation and should be discussed.

We can only judge what we've been shown so far. I don't like the way it clearly changes the intended art style.

Maybe other future implementations will be less egregious, but I think Jensen needs to stop being precious here.

What they've shown here is icky, so until they show something better, our opinions are valid.

@Hoodie718 I mean, that's the most obvious outcome possible, so I really would hope they would come up with something original to subvert that.

@UltimateOtaku91 Oh god!!!
