@dark_knightmare2 well like I said above, if Marathon is a success I will give them credit, but I’m very skeptical. I also think people have a right to be upset at the Bluepoint closure because both the remake of SoTC and Demon’s Souls were amazing and they had a lot of potential.
@Jay767 i mean, it’s pretty clear they have no idea what they’re doing. Helldivers 2 is the only success they’ve had in the live service space and that was made by a studio they don’t even own.
@Oram77 why shouldn’t people be mad? They closed one of their best single player studios at a time when the biggest complaint is the lack of single player exclusives. Meanwhile studios like Haven and Bungie are still around.
@Jireland92 at least they’re experimenting with different concepts. F was very different from 2 remake and this looks to be a lot different than both of them.
Konami has honestly made a huge comeback and everything from the Rayman remaster to SH Townfall to the 2D God of War was amazing. So much good stuff in this SoP.
If Ubisoft couldn’t remake a linear 8 to 10 hour game from 2003 (Sands of Time), does anyone believe that they will be able to successfully remake AC Black Flag, a massive open world game that’s 3x the length?
Also, I am 95% sure we will never see that Splinter Cell remake, either.
I wish after 1 and Before the Storm they had just stuck with keeping the series an anthology. I loved LiS 2 and True Colors and want to see new characters with different abilities.

Re: Starfield PS5 Won't Play Off Physical Disc without a Download
Zero reason to have a physical version of this game if it can’t be played off the disc.
Re: Starfield PS5 Needs a Serious Chunk of Your Console Storage
Game isn’t on the disc. Hard pass.
Re: Feature: PS5 Price - Why Does It Cost So Much in 2026?
This generation in a nutshell: live service flops, remakes and remasters, studio closures, layoffs, and price hikes.
Re: Sony's Lost Breaking Bad PSVR Project Unearthed in New Report
That totally would’ve saved the PSVR2.
Re: PS4 Police Game Battlefield Hardline to Be Delisted from PS Store in May
@Fighting_Game_Loser that’s my concern too. At least Hardline was released physically though.
Re: 'This Should Be Illegal': PS5's Dynamic Pricing Roundly Criticised by Disgusted Sony Fans
All the more reason to buy physical.
Re: Thomas and Friends: Wonders of Sodor Turns Nostalgic Adults into Big Kids Later This Month on PS5, PS4
I can never look at this the same way after Choo Choo Charles 😂
Re: Highguard Permanently Shuts Down on 12th March
@nolifebr no, we’d prefer Sony does what it does best – single player games.
Re: Highguard Permanently Shuts Down on 12th March
Where’s the usual live service defenders?
Re: 'It's the Real Deal': Tech Experts Praise PS5 Pro's Upgraded Upscaler
@Old-Red I’m playing on a base PS5 and no it does not look that bad. The character model looks 10x better than that picture.
Re: WB Games Is Bringing Back Its 'Biggest Franchises' Starting Next Year
I just want Injustice 3.
Re: Wolverine PS5 Release Date Reveal Sparks Bluepoint Cover-Up Claims
@lazarus11 seriously. Bloodborne remake, Resistance trilogy, Killzone trilogy, Uncharted Golden Abyss remake… the possibilities were endless.

Re: Wolverine PS5 Release Date Reveal Sparks Bluepoint Cover-Up Claims
@Oram77 imho the Bungie acquisition was one of Sony’s worst. But if Marathon’s a runaway success then l be happy to admit I was wrong.
Re: Wolverine PS5 Release Date Reveal Sparks Bluepoint Cover-Up Claims
@dark_knightmare2 lol here comes the name calling because I’m not glazing Sony’s every move and actually call them out when they make stupid moves. 😂
Re: Wolverine PS5 Release Date Reveal Sparks Bluepoint Cover-Up Claims

Re: Wolverine PS5 Release Date Reveal Sparks Bluepoint Cover-Up Claims
@Jay767 a game that honestly looks like it could be the next Concord. Meanwhile Fairgame$ is MIA.
Re: Wolverine PS5 Release Date Reveal Sparks Bluepoint Cover-Up Claims
@Yaycandy yep. And never released a single bad game.
Sony sits on a goldmine of old IP. Better to have one studio devoted to remakes and remasters than have Naughty Dog, Bend, and Guerilla on them.

Re: Resident Evil Requiem (PS5) - Two-in-One Horror Not Quite an All-Timer
Still excited, but I was hoping this would be more akin to Resident Evil 7 than Village.
Re: The Simpsons: Hit & Run Studio Returns, and Fans Are Hopeful for a Remaster
@ButterySmooth30FPS Remakes and remasters are popular and sell well. Until they aren’t/don’t, don’t expect publishers to stop releasing them.
Re: Jan 2026 USA Sales: 5-Year-Old PS5 Nudges Nintendo's New Switch 2 Aside
@j2c I’m waiting for “Hermen in da unemployment line”
Re: Jan 2026 USA Sales: 5-Year-Old PS5 Nudges Nintendo's New Switch 2 Aside
@PuppetMaster
“Hermen the Clown”
There’s a nice ring to that! 🤔
Re: Memory Crisis Threatening to Delay PS6 Could Last 'Another 10 Years'
These are the end times, folks.
Re: 'I'm Confident in the Direction We're Headed': Under-Fire PlayStation Boss Tries to Explain Baffling Bluepoint Closure
Sony has a goldmine of old IP that could’ve been remade by Bluepoint.
What completely incompetent leadership.
Re: Sony Makes Shocking Decision to Shut Down Bluepoint Games
Herman Hulst needs to resign ASAP.
Wth.
Re: Resident Evil Requiem Is the Biggest Download in Series History on PS5
That’s actually smaller than I was anticipating after reading the headline. Can’t wait!
Re: Rayman's PS5 Bundle Has Some Bugs, But They Should Get Squashed Soon
Now bring back the OG soundtrack please. 🙏
Re: 'One of the Worst Decisions Ever Made': God of War Creator Tears 'Total Crap' 2D Title Apart
Seems like a pretentious 🫏 hole.
Re: Rayman: 30th Anniversary Edition Is Real, and It Launches Tomorrow on PS5
Is it sad that this was in my Top 3 announcements from the SoP?
I grew up on Rayman 1 and I’m so excited to not only play this again but get the physical copy when it releases. 😊
Re: Silent Hill: Townfall Is the Next Series Entry to Get Excited About, Out on PS5 in 2026
@Jireland92 at least they’re experimenting with different concepts. F was very different from 2 remake and this looks to be a lot different than both of them.
Re: God of War: Sons of Sparta Is the Long-Rumoured 2D Game, and It's Out Today on PS5
I actually like this art style more than the PoP: Lost Crown art style I was expecting.
Re: Poll: How Would You Rate State of Play for February 2026?
9/10
Konami has honestly made a huge comeback and everything from the Rayman remaster to SH Townfall to the 2D God of War was amazing. So much good stuff in this SoP.
Re: Rumour: 'Most' of Highguard's Dev Team Laid Off Just Two Weeks After Live Service Shooter's Launch
Another tombstone in the live service graveyard. 🪦
Re: Big Silent Hill News in Next Silent Hill Transmission Livestream This Week
@DKG-85 I’d love a remastered version of Downpour and Homecoming. Both flawed but enjoyable games.
Re: Big Silent Hill News in Next Silent Hill Transmission Livestream This Week
@Nepp67 agreed. A lot of survival horror games have slow movement/limited stamina purposely, not just SH.
Resident Evil 7, The Evil Within games, Alien Isolation, and Cronos: The New Dawn come to mind.
Re: Rumoured Rayman PS5 Remaster Is Real, Says Series Creator
I have been saying for the past couple years that they should port this game to current gen consoles. Looks like my wish is coming true!
Re: Mega State of Play Confirmed for Thursday, Over 60 Mins of PS5 Announcements and Updates
Give me:
Kingdom Hearts 4
Judas
Rayman 30th Anniversary Edition
Silent Hill 1 or Townfall
Third Jedi game
Re: Horizon Hunters Gathering Is Guerrilla's Next Big PS5 Game, Horizon 3 Still Years Away
@nomither6 yep. Didn’t they announce Outlast 3 like 9 years ago?
Re: Sony Finally Confirms Horizon Co-Op Game, Horizon Hunters Gathering for PS5, PC
@BamBamBaklava89 good point. Also this doesn’t bode well for the possibility of a State of Play this month if they are just announcing this randomly.
Re: Sony Finally Confirms Horizon Co-Op Game, Horizon Hunters Gathering for PS5, PC
That art style is atrocious. 😖
Re: New Website Celebrates Okami's 20th Anniversary as Work Continues on Sequel
Would love a 60 fps patch for Okami HD!
The game is still a work of art to this day.
Re: Rumour: GTA 6 Might Not Launch Physically at First to Avoid Leaks
I won’t be buying until a physical copy is available then.
Re: All Signs Point to Resident Evil: Code Veronica PS5 Remake in 2027
@ZeroE Requiem will have both first and third person options!
Re: All Signs Point to Resident Evil: Code Veronica PS5 Remake in 2027
Capcom is hands down the best publisher this gen. While others have floundered, they have been firing on all cylinders. 🔥
Re: Prince of Persia Series Isn't Dead Yet Despite Remake Cancellation
If they can’t manage a remake, I highly doubt they can pull off a new 3-D entry.
Re: Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Remake Reportedly Delayed by Up to a Year
If Ubisoft couldn’t remake a linear 8 to 10 hour game from 2003 (Sands of Time), does anyone believe that they will be able to successfully remake AC Black Flag, a massive open world game that’s 3x the length?
Also, I am 95% sure we will never see that Splinter Cell remake, either.

Re: Code Veronica the Next Resident Evil Remake, Say New Reports
Out of the mainline games they haven’t remade, Code Veronica needs it the most, so I’m very happy about this.
