@nomither6 For whatever reason, I feel like Nintendo is always completely removed from these kinds of conversations.

@AdamNovice No, but I saw your message. Will look into it.

@TheKramer89 The Max Payne remakes will be huge.

Yeah if this is a proper Springfield map then I'm hyped.

@RPG121 Don't hold your breath.

@Skyliner My bad! But may you receive many likes for this comment!

Excited to play this one. I've got a lot to play at the moment so will probably stick it on my wishlist for now, but can't wait to get to it later on.

Great review, Stephen!

Didn't Joss Stone do Blood Stone?

Article updated.

@Jacko11 To be clear "adaptation" is my wording. I suspect it would have been a totally different type of The Last of Us experience, adapted for mobile.

@orvisbean101 Yeah, I was thinking the same. I was thinking like, if the Sony people all had dinner together in China that night, the conversation must have been pretty interesting.

@orvisbean101 It sounds like Tencent had no interest in making The Last of Us. They wanted to make Horizon.

But for reasons we'll probably never understand, Sony travelled to China expecting to see a The Last of Us pitch, but got shown Horizon again (after they rejected the previous proposal).

@Jacko11 Not really. The Horizon they pitched would have been brand new, set in Asia. And I imagine The Last of Us game Sony was expecting to discuss would have been brand new too.

This is all so fascinating now! What an interesting little tidbit!

@Jrs1 I'm in!

RIP Itagaki. An abrasive but always interesting character who made some unforgettable games.

@SuntannedDuck2 Definitely a bit Xtreme Express DNA in this for sure.

Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god!

Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god!

@wildcat_kickz Whoops! Thank you, fixed!

@Nalim Yeah but in the State of Play they never dated them, just said they were coming in the future.

So it makes sense SC3 might be coming in November or something.

But Tomb Raider it does say on the PS Store page it's out next week, so it's a bit odd.

@Grumblevolcano @VeldinX I can add this to the article.

Worth noting Alan Wake 2 is also still available with Essential, so when you pair that with these Extra games it really is a very compelling month.

They usually announce the dates for the next one after the previous one finished. But I guess the venue switch delayed this announcement.

@rusty82 I doubt they will port Infinite. I wouldn't be surprised if the "future" of Halo is remakes for a while — although this leaker does mention Halo 7 so who knows.

This seems like a thankless task to me. Change too much and the vocal fans will revolt. But don't change enough and what's the point — especially when they clearly want to pull in new fans.

It's all going to be very interesting to see how they present it — and when they pull the PlayStation plaster off too.

I agree, it'd be cool to get remasters of the originals from Nixxes. They are great games.

I really like the character designs. Am I allowed to say that?

@Frmknst A lot of people do care about this. Totally understand your perspective, but I think people buying physical generally expect a premium experience.

What I don't understand is why publishers haven't realised this.

If they're selling ~20% of their software physically, I'm not sure why you wouldn't go the extra mile and put a booklet/poster/whatever inside.

People appreciate that sort of thing. And you're not losing much money because you already know ~80% of your sales are digital anyway.

This game looks insane.

@Northern_munkey No of course not, could be anything!

Just speculation on my part given their recent history and the kind of employees they're seeking.

But you're quite right, it could be anything really.

@dark_knightmare2 To be clear, it's not that I dislike it, I've just never really seen much of it.

I was going to say, I think Yotei was added a while ago and I'm sure we mentioned it somewhere.

Sometimes things do slip through the cracks, of course.

These two are definitely new, though!

@themightyant Seems like it has its own separate standalone currencies.

@Fiendish-Beaver Plymouth is indeed part of the Riviera route, as I'm sure you've ridden many times!

@Kezelpaso Couldn't they have tuned what they had to make it work as intended, though?

It feels like throwing the baby out with the bath water.

Fair enough if it wasn't working as they intended, but I feel like the overall idea is sound.

@Oz_Who_Dat_Dare Thanks for commenting! I just wanted to point out that this article was published on 9th October and is obviously completely unrelated to Mental Health Day.

We obviously support positive Mental Health and would never purposefully promote suicide.

This is an article about Silent Hill using official key art from the game.

I saw this and I don't understand why it's a good thing.

I get it from the hardcore community perspective of they just want to steamroll some newbies, but how is it any fun for casual players coming up against impossibly good opponents?

Like, I don't get it... Surely the whole point is finding players of a comparable level to you so you can have a fair and competitive match?

Is the original one worth playing? I think I added it to my library at some point.

Congrats to Silent Hill F!

@katamariUK It’s got to be coming right?

@AverageGamer But you can apply that exact same logic to Gears of War Reloaded as it released on the same day.

But it’s very likely a mistake and I’ll update when he clarifies. This is actually twice the Circana data has been wrong this year.

@bluemage1989 Since when has YouTube been right?

Man, this is close.

I really like that.

Man I’ve had this on my wishlist for ages!

@Exerion76 That's like saying HBO's The Last of Us is a fan project because the production team liked the game.

This isn't a short YouTube video made by friends — it's an adaptation being put on streaming services.

Agree on the Amy green thing but they had no option.

Aside from that, all the art is awesome IMO.

@naruball Agreed. But I'm afraid it's not a fan-made video.

@hisownsidekick You're right!

@MrMajeeny That's exactly what I was going for.
