Don’t expect much good to come from Rockstar until it gets its Battlefield rival moment. If you’ve got the monopoly you’ll moo along as the cash cow.

How oh how we’ve not had a decent Resident Evil film/series for such a long time I have no idea. Easiest IP to get right.

Looking forward to this though.

I’d love a GTA style open world game by Rockstar based in the UK though. Doesn’t have to be a GTA but I do think the UK’s vastly diverse towns, cities and countryside would make for an incredible AAA open world game.

Ah yes, about this, any update on Wolf Among Us 2 or are we now to assume it’ll never be released…?

Working through, and loving, Dying Light The Beast.

Another brilliant game from Techland. Any follow up really needs a more varied and interesting story though which opens up choice fully.

Two things I’d expect from a PS6;

• PS6 only games straight away
• A UI that is actually updated throughout the generation with folders etc

Any less than that and I’ll keep my base PS5 thanks.

All of these ‘rumours’ (exc date) feel like it’s Microsoft and Sony’s way of floating how the ideas go down before committing to their projects.

Anyway, given how long it took for actual PS5 next gen games, I’ll be waiting a fair while before buying a PS6 when it comes out.

So bloody glad CoD has a competitor. Monopoly never wins for anyone.

I am once again asking for a new SOCOM

Enjoying it so far. Only comment would be that there’s way too many zombies out and about in the opening bit of the game. I at least liked the option of traversing an A to B at least once with only a few kills needed. Now you’re overwhelmed a little too easily for me.

Up and atom might be this website’s finest work. Bravo.

Prison Architect 2 update… please?

Until PS announces a complete rethink on this live service strategy altogether, this might as well a short term plaster of an announcement.

Burnout? Guys and girls, let me tell you about a little PS2 game called Stuntman.

Can’t wait for this. Bought Ultimate Edition of DL 2 so even more ecstatic I’ll be getting this for ‘free’ too.

Xbox (to a large degree) and PlayStation culling their reward schemes is nothing less than greed. It costs the company so little given, especially in PS’s case, you only earn by spending.

Really sad and corporate focused decision making. Do better PlayStation, do better.

I’ll wait for whenever Medal of Honour or SOCOM rears its beautiful head for an actual war/army game.

Shocked at lack of gameplay given the upcoming release. I’ll wait on that before a Day 1 purchase.

Oof this is great news if true.

Waiting on GTA 6’s move I reckon so I’ll be expecting an end of year release. Possibly Halloween.

Splinter Cell’s rumoured announcement

Lot of Marketing and PS Plus movement lately from PlayStation. Any sign this is all heading towards the rumoured State of Play?

I really don’t understand the hate to Part 2. It’s so much more complex than the first game and rightly so. Still a stunning game.

With regards to TV and this episode, I thought it was extremely rushed and a bit all over the place. Not sure why given the amount of episodes they’ve got to tell the story. The Scar story feels like a case of ‘we have to tell it’ rather than a desire to and it’s being undersold in my view.

After a heavy time on Xbox Game Pass, I’m back in PS5 territory to continue my replay of The Last of Us. Then I’ll go back to the second. Loving the series.

Swear that’s the most bland design out there, especially for a game as out there as this?

In all honesty, what part of any of these areas did we not have in GTA 5. Like, are they genuinely going to be anymore dense and interactive then before? Surely would have been better to base this somewhere like London and therefore naturally have had vastly different areas to discover?

Interesting this is happening on a Saturday. Assuming this is to target kids in which case they’ve done good from a marketing perspective already.

Thrilled they’ve sorted the hideout. That FPS drop was so so noticeable.

Bit of a shame they’re getting rid of the ability to disarm through light attacks. I’d hoped that was intentional as I’m not really a fan of using the heavier attacks.

@get2sammyb They did, but this lack of content across the board for their first party studios is a direct consequence of their live service priorities.

Sony really, really shot itself in the foot with live service.

SOCOM PLEASE

Now this looks incredible.

An update on this and Frostpunk 2…

….but what I’m REALLY waiting for is whether Prison Architect 2 will ever see the light of day or not.

@breakneck It is and as someone who’s actually played it, it’s decent too.

It’s being wrongly compared to previous games that did the genre better without accepting it as its own thing. So far I’m loving it.

Know it can’t be for everyone but as someone who’s not totally all over the Death Stranding hype, I really hope half of tonight is not taken up by that.

@jamison1993 Now that is annoying. Such is the issue in this post. Sony do need to ensure basic features are not requiring an unesscesqary connection and more incidents like this will hopefully encourage that.

I do think this is all rather melodramatic. Yes; the leaning on online services is potentially damaging but I play mostly single player games and I was therefore able to play the majority of my content yesterday.

Large userbase moan about the overt transition to MP and live service games and yet then this happens, it’s as if the whole of the community only play those games?

I’m aware I’m in my 30s and I’m therefore probably the key demographic for those games anyway but yeah

@RoomWithaMoose Couldn’t agree more. Give me an annual/twice a year big old event where everyone knows the big hitters are going to come out of the woods rather than the ‘potential’ for an event where, when it happens, we get a tease of a tease or a 20 minute deep dive into a single game.

One of my favourite ever IPs. More games the better.

Is this me reaching or is this the starting gun for an actual acquisition of Capcom? Feels quite something that PS Studios would pay towards this.

Again, before my I’m jumped on, I know I’m probably reaching…

That looks remarkable. Not my type of game and as someone who’s eaten extremely lightly for games this generation, I’m incredibly jealous.

Not sure I really buy this (pardon the pun).

For one, how about these studios invest in smaller non-AAA games which are original and smaller in budget to achieve the same goal? Why achieve income through rehashing old ideas and expect users to accept that?

I feel bad for not taking the game this deeply.

Stick a cheat mod on, get the nukes researched for nout and stamp out other nations for clout. Just me?

Let’s hope this passionate team can embed the features from PS4 that are still not on PS5. Just an actual folder system would be hugely appreciated.

It’ll be outrageously good, both in content and style. I can’t wait.

Oof, this is a cool feature.

There’s so many PS2 games I want made available way before they worry about PS3.

Get me playing Black and SOCOM first please.

What a 30 years!

Now; about that Showcase you’re going to surprise us with this Thursday with announcements galore… pretty please?

There’s a PS5 Pro? Barely heard about such a thing!

And still no release date for The Beast…

Might as well not tell us; a 16 year old spotty male gamer will screenshot/film any scene featuring a tit or penis anyway so we’ll all know by release date what’s in it.
