@TrollOfWar yeah so many variables, why something like a FFXVII where you can just jump in, how that would do day and date on all systems at the time (where possible)
@TrollOfWar XIII did 7.71m which looking back now is a decent number, which it was 5.35m PS3 and 2.19m 360 though XV shipped 10m (from what I can find 5m'ish on PS4 and 1m'ish on Xbox) that I can see why XVI at 3.5m was considered a flop though as I say was on one system when we got that number, and you see likes of games doing 2m being a success
@CooCooKaChoo yeah always look at it that XVI with 3.5m a flop but Capcom put out a game like Dragon's Dogma 2 which does 2m over more systems at launch and be a huge success
You'd think Square would look at Capcom, as seems Konami have done that
@TrollOfWar I do wonder what Square will deem a success or flop (everything is a flop) as XVI reportedly did 22k at launch on Xbox, is that as you say if you want that list of games do you already on NS or PS, is it because wasn't day one like PS5 (But Helldivers 2 had done 900k) or other reasons smallinstallbase (Mafia numbers for instance) etc
I can imagine of course doing very well on Nintendo, especially in Japan, though goes back to the audience
Still got to get Rebirth on NS2, Xbox and I can't believe Sony hadn't already signed a deal for Part III to be timed then to come all the rest, it still be true all Trilogy is coming to NS2/Xbox
Still can't get the disc drive, have seen some sites saying they're trying to get back in ASAP but know my local game shop not getting any till next year now.
@get2sammyb Game Pass still for me even on my S for most of the Xbox output, maybe Avowed or a bigger IP like Halo I'd get on PS5 aka basically a game I care about enough to spend 70 on
You got 15000xp for completing a match in Rivalry, where other modes just 4000xp towards rep.
Though this doesn't help towards the elimination trophies as you've not got time to eliminate anyone and slow for character XP as not using a heal pad or whatnot.
People seen doing this are like level 69 and need to get to level 100 by Friday for one last trophy.
Good to see you at least acknowledging Switch has Square Enix exclusives as sires including Pure Xbox seems to ignore such things, yet I can't play Paranormasight on my PS or Xbox.
I also don't believe Square as I look at a Saga Emerald which still skipped Xbox but even on Mobile, that wouldn't be shocked they still miss console's and say things underperform yet realese 34 games in the same year.
Got points for a bunch of games I bought a day later but haven't for my year sub to Plus, I got points last year for the sub. Have contacted Sony, and they say they're adding them, which should be a lot as the sub was £120.
I just started playing this on Sunday, I may have a picked a good time as things like Tanta's familiars following you is just something I've had since starting.
Also really enjoying the game that I may get the DLC.
@BeerIsAwesome @IonMagi the one we know of but if you listen to insiders (how that Nintendo direct go) he has like three games on the go which one might be DS2
@Akurusu only looking at the replies to Atlus, hopefully all three come to Switch and P3P/P4G to PS4/5 then be PC peeps wanting them on STEAM instead of Windows etc
If it didn't have a special edition (the one with a disc, not one of the two without the disc which is dumb) on order then I think I might have gone for the PS4 version then got the free upgrade.
Then, I am someone that has bought Death Stranding and Uncharted again physical on PS5 (Would like GoT, FFVIIR as well) along with forgetting I've got Guardians of the Galaxy as I have the PS4 physical not PS5. Think I would need that white box lol
They likely want out around the time of the show, but personally I would have The Last of Us Part I Remake in 2023 for the 10th anniversary (Yeah the game is nearly 10 for the comments saying why make a game not that old) and just have Factions come out around the time of the show instead.
Odd as I've been downloading games and going through the store, which everything shows a price on it for me. I should look to see if I can buy Catherine, or it just downloads as I'm a Plus subscriber.
Mentions need to connect to PSN at least once to play games, but I know people have used PS4's without an internet connection.
How does that work then? As battery isn't an issue then or is it just reading the time set on the settings and can't read that even after the battery dies?
Don't think this will be the last game as Russian Subway Dogs seems to be coming after it, and other devs have been saying they will try to get games out before store closes.
Plus I'm guessing someone cough limited run super meat boy cough could hold back a physical release for that to be the last game, maybe not new as it been out on PSN but you know what I mean.
@get2sammyb Guess you weren't keen on LiS2 like me but the meta score is 79 on avg for all the episodes and all system on avg and Tell Me Why around the same.
Saying Life is Strange might be a fluke is odd as Before the Storm is good and wasn't from DONTNOD, Life is Strange 2 I wasn't a big fan of but people like it, Tell Me Why is great then you have Twin Mirror which is from a new team
@doctommaso well when you pay £450 for the console, buy four games at roughly £60 each and the 3D Pulse Headset at £90 then the console doesn't work then yeah it's rather rubbish.
I do have a PS5 but it crashes on every game and I can't install any games beyond Miles for some reason that I have on disc. I've done the fixes on the website and spoke to Sony, that I've factory reset my PS5 four times and still does it that I'm waiting to hear back from them.
So I've put rubbish as at the that's my experience at the moment.
@Medic_Alert Yep see you also mention some games coming out in December like Immortals and Puyo Puyo those along with the mentioned physical versions of DMC5SE & Pathless also tempted me.
I'm off for almost two weeks when PS5 comes out, and likely will finished Miles, Sackboy at least and because of the newness (likely value as well) can sell to pick up immortals etc
Getting quite a bit as sold a few thing's and was saving for both consoles but when Halo got delayed I cancelled my Series X, meaning I will be getting
PS5 Disc Version 3D Pulse Headset Miles Morales Ultimate Edition Demons Souls Godfall Dirt 5 Cold War Sackboy Bugsnax, via plus
Pathless looks great but a physical version is out in December, so will wait for that and may even pick up the physical version of Devil May Cry 5 SE.
Theres a few maybes Mortal Kombat 11 Ultimate as I've not played aftermath and be nice to have a fighter. Observer Redux as heard good things of the current version but might be one for a sale. Could even see me getting NBA if I see cheap in the next few months.
@TheFrenchiestFry Xbox does have some where saves are iffy such as FIFA, NBA, etc basically games that don't use smart delivery/has own verison but does raise the question why 3rd party games Yakuza 7, Dirt 5, etc use smart delivery but saves not on PS4 to PS5

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy's Conclusion Will Not Be PS5 Exclusive
@TrollOfWar yeah so many variables, why something like a FFXVII where you can just jump in, how that would do day and date on all systems at the time (where possible)
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy's Conclusion Will Not Be PS5 Exclusive
@Questionable_Duck yeah would have only been what 4 years into the gen, though you'd more sells overtime with install base growing
And yeah maybe Remake is one of those games if you own can play via cloud, and could play on Xbox One that way also opens up other options via cloud
I was just looking at the numbers we've been getting for games via circana etc and the smaller installbase could be a reason
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy's Conclusion Will Not Be PS5 Exclusive
@Questionable_Duck smaller install base now on Xbox mind, and how well do games sell on Xbox
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy's Conclusion Will Not Be PS5 Exclusive

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy's Conclusion Will Not Be PS5 Exclusive
@Godot25 this is Square Enix mind, so whoever knows with them as well
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy's Conclusion Will Not Be PS5 Exclusive
All it says is Trilogy is coming
Still got to get Rebirth on NS2, Xbox and I can't believe Sony hadn't already signed a deal for Part III to be timed then to come all the rest, it still be true all Trilogy is coming to NS2/Xbox
Re: Discount Codes Are Being Sent Out to PS Plus Members

Re: PS5 Disc Drive Stock Still a Source of Intense Irritation for Many
I managed to get a currys bundle late last night. No disc drives on their own if you want just that
Re: Upcoming PS5 Games for December 2024 and January 2025
Mostly this week I'm looking for stuff as could be something for the 30 the anniversary, Infinity Nikki, Marvel Rivals and Fantasian
With Black Myth physical later in the month
Re: PS5 Disc Drive Stock Still a Source of Intense Irritation for Many
Did add one of the bundles from Currys to my basket, by the time I went to pay, it was soldout.
Still no disc drive, means still no Pro.
Re: Black Myth: Wukong Dev Declares 'Surprises' Still in Store for 2024

Re: Poll: Did You Buy a PS5 Pro?
Still can't get the disc drive, have seen some sites saying they're trying to get back in ASAP but know my local game shop not getting any till next year now.
Re: In the UK, You Can't Buy a PS5 Pro Disc Drive without Paying a Premium
I've got £800 sat here for PlayStation but as I can't get the disc drive for the Pro, it's staying with me.
Re: PS5 Pro Will Upgrade the Xbox-Owned Call of Duty: Black Ops 6

Re: Is This Mysterious Image Hinting at Kojima Productions' Next Game?
@BeerIsAwesome @IonMagi the one we know of but if you listen to insiders (how that Nintendo direct go) he has like three games on the go which one might be DS2

Re: The PS5, PS4 Release Schedule in 2023 Is Officially Ridiculous
FFVII Rebirth could be Feb 2024 for instance but do feel it means end of 2023 but gives Square wiggle room.
Re: PS4 Versions Only for Persona 4 Golden, Persona 3 Portable
Doubt native Series versions of P3P and P4G more that work on those systems via smart delivery, where on PS5 it just be via BC.
Re: Dragon's Dogma 10th Anniversary Event Announced for This Week
Same time as the FFVII event
Re: Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden Confirmed for PS5
Be odd to not be on PS4 but Xbox One especially seeing some games like KoFXV and SF6 aren't on/coming to Xbox One amongst others.
Re: Persona 3, 4, 5 Coming to PC and Xbox, No Mention of PlayStation
@Akurusu only looking at the replies to Atlus, hopefully all three come to Switch and P3P/P4G to PS4/5 then be PC peeps wanting them on STEAM instead of Windows etc
Re: Persona 3, 4, 5 Coming to PC and Xbox, No Mention of PlayStation
Mostly Nintendo fans sour at this, guess with Joker being in SMASH the P3P and P4G from portable systems
Re: Rumour: More Persona Games Could Be Coming to Consoles
Last year's PC Show had P4G, and the PC Show is today that I think it's more likely ports of P3 and P5 for PC after how well P4G did on PC as well.
Re: Remember to Buy Horizon Forbidden West on PS4, And Not PS5
If it didn't have a special edition (the one with a disc, not one of the two without the disc which is dumb) on order then I think I might have gone for the PS4 version then got the free upgrade.
Then, I am someone that has bought Death Stranding and Uncharted again physical on PS5 (Would like GoT, FFVIIR as well) along with forgetting I've got Guardians of the Galaxy as I have the PS4 physical not PS5. Think I would need that white box lol
Re: Unsurprisingly, Life Is Strange PS4's Remaster for PS4 Looks Familiar

Re: Mini Review: The Artful Escape (PS5) – A Visual Treat That's Light on Gameplay

Re: Rumour: The Last of Us Remake Almost Complete, Out This Year
They likely want out around the time of the show, but personally I would have The Last of Us Part I Remake in 2023 for the 10th anniversary (Yeah the game is nearly 10 for the comments saying why make a game not that old) and just have Factions come out around the time of the show instead.
Re: Sony Extends Final Fantasy VII Exclusivity, Intergrade Won't Appear Anywhere Else for Six Months
Interesting as till now all the press stuff was Episode Yuffie was exclusive to PS5 and never mentioned anything about timed exclusive.
That I was thinking this would go Avengers route, it comes to Xbox/PC but without Yuffie.
Now unsure, guess the whole package on Xbox or PC at somepoint.

Re: Mini Review: Twin Mirror (PS4) - Yeah, This Exists

I've played and thought it was okay.
