the title of the game sucks, “break in,” really? Game namings really dropped over the years, i think the last unique/cool name i ever heard was stellar blade
@Leetware1 I own PS5/Switch/PC and several other consoles from previous gens including xbox. I like gaming & don't really have an allegiance to one brand and criticize them all whenever I don't like something about it. It aint deep.
Hopefully this means that people stop erroneously recalling the PS3 era as “greedy” Sony.This generation shows you what true greed is. The PS5 is a ripoff through-and-through, and always has been. Third party games and PS4 titles/legacy have been carrying it.
@txpistolpete I loved Xbox, but the brand honestly has been a joke since 2013, arguably even before that, when they started pushing the kinect at the end of the Xbox360 era. That said though, $***endo, P$, and M$ are all trash this generation. These people have no reason to be fanboys right now imo.
The intent of Plus back in the day when it first came out in the golden ps3 days was to be a premium service for people that wanted to sub to it, not because they had to, to play online
PC also has come a loooong way since & gives gamers so much more value than console. There’s no reason in 2026 to still condone this long running scam of charging people to use their own internet to access a games servers. it was a novelty back in the day with the original xbox & somewhat justified with the xbox360 because of how revolutionary its online was (& PSN hack reinforced it) - but now? no way
No, I played it already and nearly platinumed it & can literally still play the game through my PS5 today. I don’t see anything worth being hyped about to be resold the same game again just because ubisoft is washed
@4fold Yes, but this list is also skewed. If anything, this list says more about how lacking new successful multiplayer games are more so than anything being wrong for single players. The list is only accounting for concurrent players, you cannot play a single player for years and years like you can with a live service - they are essentially one and done experiences, and then people go back to whatever game with infinite replayability until another good single player comes out. i’d love to have seen this list when elden ring, Ragnarok, or spiderman 1/2 came out.
$ony is chasing live service because of the perpetual profits that no single player can provide
@TrollOfWar single player games still sell, i don’t know why yall think it’s a dire situation for them -$ony is just greedy, they don’t need to make live services at all, the MidStation 5 sells itself & they get percent shares from every game and MTX sold on their platform
@OptimusPrime1 Dude, single player games are one and done - instead of taking note from most played concurrent games, it would make more sense to look at sales. single player games still sell very good; you’re not gonna see them on lists like this because multiplayer & live service games have longevity and infinite replayability - you can only play an “immersive game” for so long before you’ve seen it all and done it all. This list doesn’t paint the whole picture & these top games are mostly YEARS in the running - anyone will finish a single player by then no matter how bloated it is.
Also, those “immersive” game experiences you’re talking about, suck imo. Too much exposition and open world slop & not enough gameplay or variety; feels like more of a movie than a video game. they’re way too grounded these days 👎
@Slayer25c i know right. these are the same people that say, “not every game needs some ‘tacked on’ multiplayer,” but will expect tacked on single player slop in a multiplayer game.
$ony lost their way when they moved to Cali; granted the PS2 was “mostly” carried by third parties, $ony still delivered and were cooking (Birth of Classic God of war, birth of R&C, Sly cooper etc) & then they turnt up with the PS3 with banger new IPs and the early to mid PS4 era, they were killing it.
The Ps5 is a overpriced crap box coasting off what better playstations did 👎
PS3>PS4=PS2>>PS1>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>PS5
Why is a handheld console being compared to a home console? why not compare the switch to the DS, Vita, Steam Deck, and things like that where it belongs…
Ai should reduce game development times and reduce the costs for all of us. if they let ai do the heavy lifting then devs can spend more time being creative
@BrokenByTheScream facts. reach was their swan song and peak, best halo ever; it had so much content & was so damn fun . the multiplayer was like going to an amusement park that had fun modes. the only flaw was that the maps could have been better, but they weren’t bad at all. the campaign was also pretty badass and made the covenant a real threat.
They matter. it’s why 6th and 7th gen were so great. i miss having all three consoles in rotation. It also pains me to say that porting exclusives to PC is also a deterrent; i mean, im torn about it. I love it, but do you know how hard it is to play console if the game is on PC too ? 😭

Re: God of War 3 Director's AAA Dungeons & Dragons Game Cancelled After Less Than a Year
@Donrenardo Most of those, yeah. Except Subnautica, I don’t think Subnautica is an indie, it’s AA in my opinion like Deep Rock Galactic.
I also want to clarify that by no means am I saying that indies aren’t good, i’m just not its audience
Re: 'Every Detail Matters': Sony Drops New Promo for $900 PS5 Pro

Re: God of War 3 Director's AAA Dungeons & Dragons Game Cancelled After Less Than a Year
@Rhaoulos I’d rather AAA or AA instead of indies , as wrong as that may sound. indies are just too small scale and boring.
