Yeah it's kinda interesting the games they picked to include here. But eh, it gets the point across I guess.
Like Balaam says, I guess they're mostly targeting more casual players with this. Unsure if that crowd would be willing to pay $900 on this, but I'm sure they've done their research.
@INeedGoodGraphics I would assume it's expected a hearty PC is going to outperform absolutely everything so I was only meaning to compare to other consoles. But fair point, I didn't intend to mislead.
Like I said in the article, I understand they want customer service to be quick and seamless.
But you canāt just bypass all security in pursuit of that. Customers should have to provide a decent amount of information to ārecoverā their accounts.
@awp69 Just announced for PC at the moment. Personally I doubt it'll go anywhere else because none of the other platforms have a strong fighting game presence like PS5/PC do.
@species The website is for importers to get refunds from the US government. This suit is claiming those "refunds" should go directly to customers instead.
They'll need to win the court case for customers to see a cent of this.
@RBMango Out of any of the platforming franchises, Sly Cooper has always been my favourite. I don't think we can consider Ratchet dormant right now, so Sly would be my pick!
@Deshalu I'm not defending it. I'm just replying to the user who said "Cool. They got rid of their main competitor, so now they can do whatever the ***** they want."
Well, no, because their "main competitor" also bumped up the price. (And removed one of their big games.)
@Godot25 I mean, let's not pretend Microsoft didn't massively increase the price of Game Pass as well. Even now, with Call of Duty removed, it's much more expensive than it was.
So I don't think this is a competition issue at all.
My read on this is they want to stop people from signing up on short subscriptions.
This game looks like so much fun. I never really enjoyed the gameplay in past LEGO games much, but this being basically an Arkham game has raised my interest.
@AdamNovice Yeah you don't get Uncharted or The Last of Us wihtout allowing the studios to grow.
I think finding talented studios passionate about continuing the brands is a good idea though. Like when Sanzaru made Sly 4.
I think Sons of Sparta, even though it wasn't a 10/10 game, was a good step. That team clearly loved God of War and wanted to do something with it.
Maybe they almost need like an XDev style facilitator; like a group that sits internally and acts as the bridge between studios pitching and the original creators that can help greenlight these projects and steward them to release.

Re: Hands On: It's No GunCon, But I'm Having a Blast with Time Crisis' PS5 Gyro Controls
@Gamer83 They're not particularly amazing remakes, but the two House of the Dead games have gyro controls like this. Worth a look discounted.
Re: Hands On: It's No GunCon, But I'm Having a Blast with Time Crisis' PS5 Gyro Controls
@janineking Haha, no support for any other light guns I'm afraid, especially not the Super Scope.
Re: 'Every Detail Matters': Sony Drops New Promo for $900 PS5 Pro
@Rich33 Agreed yeah. I think they let DF do a lot of the marketing for launch. Like, literally.
Probably smart tbh, they knew who they were selling to.
Re: 'Every Detail Matters': Sony Drops New Promo for $900 PS5 Pro
@Sweetz Haha, it does feel very "Sony YouTube Commercial" doesn't it? I guess it works...?

Re: 'It's a Clear Upgrade': Why 007 First Light Will Look and Play Best on PS5 Pro
@twitchtvpat Hah. Well you can't please everyone.
Re: Hands On: It's No GunCon, But I'm Having a Blast with Time Crisis' PS5 Gyro Controls
@PeteW Agreed there's better options out there, but they all cost a fair amount of money.
I think this is fun, even if the gyro doesn't really replace the experience of a light gun.

@tangyzesty At least I didn't do the exaggerated pixelated side-by-side thumbnail you all love.

@TheArt Really? That must just be a bug.
Re: Free on Xbox, PS5 Owners Made to Pay $10 for New Darksiders Upgrade
This is weird.

Re: Finally, I Have a Reason to Play as My Street Fighter 6 Avatar on PS5, PS4 Again
@Korgon Yeah there's a few Outfit 2s I still need to earn, so I will be engaging with this to get those.

Well actually you don't need Trophies to enjoy a game bruh!!
Re: 5 PS Plus Extra Game Removals for June 2026 Confirmed
@Bizzy Looks like it was there for six months. Which, yeah, is long enough to play through it I suppose. Quite short though.
Re: 5 PS Plus Extra Game Removals for June 2026 Confirmed
Overall, though, only five removals is fine I think
Re: 5 PS Plus Extra Game Removals for June 2026 Confirmed
Didn't Red Dead only just get added?
Re: Xbox Fans Flock to Online Suggestions Box to Tell Microsoft to Keep Games Off PS5
@ShogunRok Shh, don't tell them about what happened after everyone went to sleep.
Re: Prominent PS5 Podcaster's Account Hacked, Social Engineering Concerns Amplified
@cainhurst94 Updated.
I still think this story is worth exploring. Obviously itās great Colinās account got recovered, but others may not be so lucky.
Re: Prominent PS5 Podcaster's Account Hacked, Social Engineering Concerns Amplified
@Bamila This stuff is really concerning.
Like I said in the article, I understand they want customer service to be quick and seamless.

Re: Sony Reportedly Confirms Shift Back to PS5 Single Player Exclusive Games
@awp69 Just announced for PC at the moment. Personally I doubt it'll go anywhere else because none of the other platforms have a strong fighting game presence like PS5/PC do.
It's a bit different with shooters.

Re: PS5 Fans Vote Jak & Daxter As Their Most Wanted PlayStation Revival
@somnambulance Can't believe I didn't mention PaRappa!!!
But actually, the 'Other' category didn't get many votes. (It was at the bottom of the list.)
Re: Marvel Cosmic Invasion Is Adding One of My Fave Heroes Today, And a New Mode in 2026
@HughJasol It's possible if you buy one version of the DLC it'll just make both available to download, but I haven't bought it yet so can't confirm.

Re: PS Plus Price Increase Announced by Sony for New Members
@Voltan Yep, I think so. They want to lock you in for that year, they don't want you to keep bouncing around.

Re: Gravity Rush 2 Fans Find a Way to Play Sony's Neglected PS4 Classic at 4K, 60fps
@Mio_Nakashima I doubt that movie is ever coming out to be honest.
There were rumours about a PS5 port, but not sure how reliable they were.
Re: Gravity Rush 2 Fans Find a Way to Play Sony's Neglected PS4 Classic at 4K, 60fps
@cainhurst94 I loved this game, too. But yes, it didn't sell well unfortunately.
Re: LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight (PS5) - Brick Gaming at Its Joyful Best
This game looks like so much fun. I never really enjoyed the gameplay in past LEGO games much, but this being basically an Arkham game has raised my interest.

Re: Poll: Would You Buy an inFAMOUS Collection for PS5?
@Blacksmith1985 You should give it a go. Fun game.
Re: Poll: Would You Buy an inFAMOUS Collection for PS5?
@Dalamar What if they looked and ran better on modern hardware, though? You could finally pack that PS3 away?

Re: New inFAMOUS PS5 Project Rumours Give Fans Fresh Hope
I love inFAMOUS and I'd take anything, so remasters sounds good.
Re: PS5's New Weekly Player Tracker Has Revealed Some Brutal Truths for Fans
@INeedGoodGraphics It's a huge problem. Like I said in the article, it's the right strategy but the execution has been awful.
Nothing they've made (or are currently making) is going to break up this list.
Arc Raiders and Marvel Rivals prove it is possible for new games to break in though.
