I'll wait to buy until they eventually release an upgraded version (Sigma/Black) with improvements and more contents (playable characters, stages, etc.)
Now I'm convinced that they'll release a Sigma/Black version in the future with new stories and new playable characters (Ayane, Momiji, Rachel, Kasumi, or a new one). So I'll skip this "base" version
I'm quite appy that they're removing the modern storyline, never was a fan of it. I guess once this game releases, Skulls and Bones will be forgotten (maybe).
I'm playing Daemon X Machina Titanic Scion. The demo was great, I love the action battle gameplay, the story is interesting. The design/style reminds me of God Eater (making me hope there'll be a God Eater 4)
I'm definitely gonna buy this game but not day 1 since they will probably release a "complete"/"upgraded" version of NG4 (Black, Sigma, or Razor's Edge).
I'm not interested in buying it because imo it's not a mainline final fantasy game, in the sense that there's only 1 playable character as opposed to multiple playable characters and it's not party member based. If it were a spin off like FF Type-0, FFX-2, FFVII Dirge of Cerberus, maybe it would've attracted more "traditional" FF fans. The story is good (I watched the cutscenes compilations) but the characters are not as well written as some of the previous entries.
Is this gonna be a complete game or will there be a Sigma/Black version releasing after which includes more content (stages, playable characters like Momiji, Rachel, Ayane etc.)? Looks good though
I'm really curious to see how dark the story could be that it required a warning or it's just marketing tactics. Fatal Frame story was dark but no warning required. Excited for this game's story!
I'm hoping to buy Warhammer 40k Rogue Trader on sale (in time to prepare for the upcoming dlc), as well as Baldur's Gate 3 (it was on sale for about 20% in my region a few months ago, hoping it'll be on sale more than that this time around). Crossing my fingers!
Hey everyone, I need some opinions. Two of the games that I'm interested in buying not on this list are discounted as well (maybe different regions); Dragon's Dogma 2 Standard Edition (45% = $37) and Granblue Fantasy Relink Standard Edition (50% = $21). Do you guys think these are worth buying now or should I wait for future discounts to see if they'll go lower?
Praying and crossing my fingers for a New Tales of game, Tales of the Abyss remake, God Eater 4, Code Vein, Xenosaga remake announcement and not another SAO with Kirito as the main character. If it's another SAO, it better be something like Fatal Bullet
Looks amazing! I remember there's a mobile game called Phantom Blade Executioners, I don't know if it's worth playing for or not just to prepare for this game.
I'm a bit hesitant to buy this since I'm used to the traditional playable party members system and was a bit afraid this would end up like FFXV, but after watching previews and reading the reviews for it, I immediately pre-ordered it. Thanks for the review ! Can't wait to play it~
@get2sammyb is the story more coherent and the characters are more engaging than FFXV? in the sense that by only playing this game the story is "complete" or understandable rather than having to read a novel, anime, film etc. if there's ever one ?
Indonesia during the Dutch/Japanese Colonization could've been a great setting since Guerilla Warfare was used to fight against the invaders and it involves stealth, sneak attacks, espionage etc. which suits the Assassins' style.
If Ratchet and Clank, Crash Bandicoot, and Spyro could make a comeback, I don't see why Sly Cooper couldn't/wouldn't especially since Sony featured the Sly Cooper logo in their last promotional video.
Kinda disappointed with the party members since previous games (barring SO5) have Aliens but it's all human here. Also, it's a fixed party member of 6 instead of giving us optional party members akin to SO1-SO3
When does the catalog refresh happen exactly? I managed to upgrade earlier to Extra on May 24th since I live in Asia, but haven't seen any catalog refresh/re-roll yet.
So is it going to refresh in July instead since these tiers were only available worldwide in June 23rd?

I might buy this if the graphics are overhauled/improved since they're too murky for my taste, and if they lower the price. Hopefully this game will get a redemption arc akin to No Man's Sky or at least Fallout 76, instead of being abandoned like Anthem

I'm playing Daemon X Machina Titanic Scion. The demo was great, I love the action battle gameplay, the story is interesting. The design/style reminds me of God Eater (making me hope there'll be a God Eater 4)
Re: Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion (PS5) - Rough Open World Design Distracts from Tight Mecha Action
I really liked the demo so I think I'll buy this. A bit surprised that got a 6/10 like Lost Soul Aside, when imo this game is better and cheaper too.
Re: Ghostrunner Dev Changes History for PS5 Souls-Like Valor Mortis
I'll skip since it's first person, but it looks beautiful though!
Re: Round Up: Ninja Gaiden 4 Sounds Like the Slick, Brutal Sequel Fans Are Hoping For

I wish they'd update the graphics and battle animations, but I still really like its stories.

Re: Expedition 33 Devs 'Exchange Ideas' with Final Fantasy Team

Re: Final Fantasy 16 May Have Underperformed on PS5, But It's Doing Terribly on Xbox

Re: The Outer Worlds 2 Gets Gameplay Blowout Covering RPG Systems, Combat, More
Looks good and interesting, especially since it has third-person option. Still gonna wait for a sale though, since I don't think it's worth $80
Re: DON'T NOD Goes Cinematic Sci-Fi in 2026's Aphelion on PS5

Re: Persona 4 Remake Announced for PS5
They should remake Persona 2 after this
Re: Next Tales of Remaster Announcement Confirmed for This Summer
Tales of the abyss needs a remake, not just a remaster. Bandai Namco has the money, so they should be willing to invest in it.
Re: MIXTAPE Does Coming of Age Storytelling Justice with a Stacked PS5 Soundtrack

Re: Poll: How Would You Rate Summer Game Fest 2025?

Re: This Is the Real-Life Japanese Actress Playing Hinako Shimizu in Silent Hill F
I'm really curious to see how dark the story could be that it required a warning or it's just marketing tactics. Fatal Frame story was dark but no warning required. Excited for this game's story!
Re: When Is Summer Game Fest 2025?
So, will there be a Summer Game Fest Sale on the PS Store? If there is, it'll run concurrently with they Days of Play Sale.
Re: Sony's Huge Days of Play Sale on PS5 Consoles, Games, PS Plus Subs Starts Next Week
I'm hoping to buy Warhammer 40k Rogue Trader on sale (in time to prepare for the upcoming dlc), as well as Baldur's Gate 3 (it was on sale for about 20% in my region a few months ago, hoping it'll be on sale more than that this time around). Crossing my fingers!
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Assassin's Creed Shadows?
I'll buy it once the eventual complete edition with future expansions comes out, or when it's on sale/on PS Plus.

Re: More Than Half of PlayStation's Investment Could Be in Live Service Games by 2025
