Re: Best Co-Op Games on PS5

Ghost of Tushima Legends is quite deep and fantastic game. It should be on this list. Haven’t bought single player yet but I am now level 120 with Samurai.

Re: Hands On: eFootball PS5, PS4 Feels Better Than FIFA 22 After Major Update

mrbone

It has improved significantly. Now the gameplay is really nice. I guess the game would be ready by next season as the offline mode is really limited now. I play co-op with my bro (against CPU Man U) and it is currently not available. Even the offline mode is still very limited, how difficult to allow us to play more than 5 min. But I am really excited for the comeback. Never a FIFA fan.

Re: Best Racing Games on PS5

Just tried the racing wheel today with wreckfast, dirt 5 and dirt rally 2. IT is really not easy using it. Maybe I don't have a proper chair. Better to just use the controller.

Re: Rumour: Ubisoft's Making a Hero Shooter Battle Royale Codenamed Pathfinder

mrbone

If successful, that will become a money tree. So they will throw everything and see what sticks. Apart from Fornite, (to some extent PUBG as being the first Royale game, Apex, COD, Genshin impact and fall guys) other free live service games are not doing very well. I hope we got another when Factions 2 launch. Would be nice if given free to all PS plus tier members

Re: PS3 Emulation Allegedly in Production for PS5

mrbone

I might be the minority or majority. Although I grew up with PS1 and 2, I am not keen to replay the retro games. Remastered is a different matter but I am not even interested in my favourite GTA- vice city despite it being free on PS Now. I don't even replay my childhood best games- Super Mario 3 and Donkey Kong on the Switch. The voice of critics is surely loud, but they might just be the minority. Really would like to know the data from Xbox backward compatible games.

Re: PS Plus April 2022 PS5, PS4 Games Announced

mrbone

Expect more games like these going forward. They will make higher tiers more attractive by keeping big games for those services. This is the upcoming Xbox Games with Gold- April 2022) - Another Sight, Hue, Outpost Kaloki X, MX vs ATV Alive. Microsoft has been giving rubbish months after months but they are getting away with it as people only care about gp.

Re: Huge PS Store Spring Sale Discounts 1,000 PS5, PS4 Games

mrbone

The landscape has changed since PS5 launch since last year. Sony has been following Nintendo in terms of first party titles. (Microsoft is not relevant here as only very few would buy their first party anyway given availability on gp). As Sony sell digital version PS5 at a loss, they will try to recoup it and now with new ps plus service, there is even more reason to give little discount to digital versions. I would still buy digital as I can share with my siblings. (If you have ps4 playing friends, you can share extra too).

Re: This Week Could Be Big for PlayStation, Say Swirling Rumours

mrbone

Don’t expect it will be the same as GP. Otherwise you will be disappointed. Microsoft is using the money from their other business which Sony simply don’t have. Then again Microsoft only have a very few first party games since GP launch and some people didn’t notice about it.

Re: UK Sales Charts: Gran Turismo 7 Still Leading the Pack Following Online Issues

mrbone

Push square often uses 70$ games, blah blah. But that is only for digital. New games/pre-orders (physical disc) can be bought anytime around 50 to 54 GBP here in the UK. Sony sold the digital version console at a loss and thus they are trying to coup the money from their store (which does affect me as I am a digital guy, but on the other hand, you get to share easily with your siblings who live overseas, so I am still happy with digital games). But the price of money for physical discs are not changed for many years now.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy Elden Ring?

mrbone

Seems to be a great game. But not my type as I don't have the patience to learn all the moves, attack patterns etc. I just want to enjoy stories or games with mindless fun even if they are beat/ shoot 'em up.

Re: PS Plus March 2022 PS5, PS4 Games Announced

mrbone

@tartanross I mean many times in a year in the UK, it was reduced to less than 30GBP. ( or just over 30, you can buy from CD keys all year long).) I am based in the UK but my main PS plus account is the US. Even over 40GBP, you got more than what you paid for in the whole year.

Re: Call of Duty Will Take Time Off Next Year

mrbone

Never into FPS shooter. But I wonder those who buy COD every year, what make you buy it yearly. I know they rinse and repeat the setting (historical, future etc) but personally the gameplay is just basically a minor tweak. Loads of people buy it annually is a surprise to me. Do you guys buy it because most online community are most active in the newest game?

Re: Sony Stock Value Loses $20 Billion, But Will Likely Recover

mrbone

What kind of idiot think this is because of Sony times exclusives? Time exclusivity is done by all companies. All Xbox fanboys use this as an excuse which is ridiculous. Most of Sony exclusives are either first party or collaborate closely with third party developers. Most timed exclusives are DLC with only a few big games. Almost all the great games throughout last gen are first party. How come it is Sony’s fault most Xbox exclusives last gen didn’t do well? Currently Xbox first party day 1 exclusives are very few and far between (no exclusives until now after ill fated crackdown 3). With more exclusives coming, expect subscription fee go up. And people will then subscribe using other regions. We will see how this will affect games in the long run. Will consoles games model turn into mobile model, low initial cost with tons of in games purchases?

Re: Reaction: Merging PS Plus and PS Now Makes Sense, But an Xbox Game Pass Competitor Can't Be Half-Arsed

mrbone

I don’t think they will include big first party titles day 1. Funny people compares this to gamepass. I mean look at the gap of first party games coming to gamepass. They only release 1 game so far since the Xbox new gen launch. Almost all of new games come day 1 to gamepass are indie games. The other problem is Sony focus a lot on single player story games which wouldn’t make sense to offer free day 1.

Re: Konami Apologises for the State of eFootball at Launch

mrbone

They should have just released another seasonal update. This isn’t clearly ready which is obvious with the previous demo, and they just tired to release earlier than FIFA. If it’s released as demo, they wouldn’t feel that much heat. It is never good thing to change engine as it would be buggy. They should give us free or minimal fee season 2022 update. Scrap this one until I it is ready

Re: Feature: 12 PS5 Firmware Updates We Want to See

mrbone

Of all the things, I don’t need a browser at all. Yeah I know a few people watch pro hub with it, but I am sure the vast majority of people never ever touch it. And the browser is also the reason of jailbreak and security issue. So I don’t think of going to happen.

Re: Rumour: PS Plus September 2021 PS5, PS4 Games Leaked Ahead of Official Reveal

mrbone

@Wibbleboy yes I got those PS3 and Vita games too. But never get to play them, so they are just in the library. I am sure most of us got PS plus and stacked when the price is about 20-25 $ as the price dipped to this every year (about the cost of 2 cinema tickets), not to mention I am sharing its benefits with my bro. And looking back this year so far, we already got much more than what we paid. I can only speak for myself, even the so-called weakest month, I have already spent many hours in PVZ game. Sept games if true, Hitman 2 and Overcooked are already known great games and Predator would still give at least a few hours of fun (I know most people wouldn't even think to buy it).

Re: eFootball's PS5, PS4 Gameplay Trailer Is Bizarre

mrbone

Well, it is obvious, with the COVID pandemic and a new engine, even with a year break, they could not make it in time. For being a football game, you can't release it anytime you want, it has to be around the new football season. This is anything but bizarre. That's why they give out free. The truth is PES has strong support in Asia on mobile, can't compete with FIFA in the West due to lack of licensing. At least if they only sell squad update as DLC and with the continuous updates including gameplay, this would save money in the long run, compared to the full-price game every year (just for minimal pacing change and squad).

Re: Talking Point: How Would You Improve PS Plus?

mrbone

People not aware of how Xbox game with gold give out rubbish games for a long time now, for them either you subscribe more expensive game pass or you end up with very ***** games with gold. I don’t agree with PS plus this month free games are very bad, PVZ is quite a fun game. Tennis is not bad either.
