@jimbouk I know. It's ridiculous how people try to compare Sony acquiring individual studios they've worked with to Microsoft purchasing entire publishers

Never forget - Cyberpunk 2077 went gold and was then promptly delayed about a month. Obviously we now know why, but "going gold" doesn't guarantee that a game will release on schedule

Still no explanation for the lack of a PS5 version?

When the next big flop in the making comes around, he'll be there to hype it up

I'd like to see Dino Crisis remade, with Code Veronica a close second. However now that I've played the RE4 remake, I'm a little annoyed with how much of a rush job the RE3 remake was. Most of RE4's locations have been faithfully recreated, but RE3 remake's Racoon City was so ridiculously condensed and simplified

Maybe not many right now, but in the future, a bunch of games that probably would've come to PS5 aren't going to: Starfield, Redfall, Elder Scrolls VI, Hellblade 2, possibly the next Doom and Wolfenstein games, etc

@JONOFTHEJONS That was a great game, and was probably the best looking PS4 game I'd seen at that point in time

@MatthewJP I stand corrected. Beat the game back in 2014 so I must've misremembered

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is pretty good, and an easy platinum

When this game eventually fizzles out, Capcom will be confused and say, "well looks like nobody cares about dinosaurs, so we might as well shelve that Dino Crisis remake"

I prefer games that have several smaller scale open areas, such as Metro Exodus, opposed to one giant open world, like Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Origins, etc

I hope this is true. It's kind of annoying how the mainline SMT games have been locked in Nintendo consoles for awhile now. I mean, SMT IV released in 2013 only on 3DS when PS3 and 360 were readily available

My hopes of a Freedom Fighters remake/remaster/sequel get dimmer by each passing year

Great additions overall, but doesn't The Forgotten City have a PS5 version?

I was really hoping this one would show up at some point - hopefully Logan's Shadow is soon to follow

Glad to see things are progressing nicely - this is one of the more interesting upcoming games

@riceNpea I was wondering the same thing

@MFTWrecks I ran into this bug when I tried to upgrade once the PS5 version went live, but they fixed it the next day and I was able to upgrade for no charge. Is the bug still happening to you/others?

The show also messed up the Massachusetts State House in episode 2 - it wasn't the right dome, and there's no street that approaches from head on like that. It's just fairly strange because the game pretty much nailed the State House - it is accurately positioned across from Boston Common. As someone who grew up roughly 10 miles NORTH of Boston, I remember being pleasantly surprised when I first played through that section of the game.

The first time I saw her was on 24 as Agent Renee Walker. I was initially disappointed that she wasn't reprising her role as Tess in the series, though I had no idea she had cancer. Such a tremendous, devastating loss indeed

@Ajfennell77 Thanks

Just checked myself - PS5 upgrade is showing as $39.99, not free

What a strange, but not unwelcome crossover

@3Above And Pragmata as well

In my opinion, the problem with this section was that the controls didn't support the increase in action. RPG-wielding enemies and machine gun emplacements were thrown at you, but Leon couldn't even move and shoot simultaneously. With the improved controls, I'm sure this segment will be much better

The PS5 version should've launched at 49.99 to be honest, but it went on sale for black Friday as I knew it likely would, and grabbed a physical copy then

@Hundred_Hand_Slap I'd say because the original Dead Space released in 2008 as opposed to 2013 for TLoU - which also got a PS4 remaster a year later. The Dead Space series on the other hand has been largely abandoned since the third game came out in 2013

Why on earth is this releasing in 2023 on PS4 but not PS5?

I gotta say, when I saw the subheading: "Gameplay Disrobed", I was hoping there was going to be a clothing destruction mechanic

@Darude84 I generally start with AC 2 and go from there, but having recently played that game for the first time in a good while, I have to warn that combat is annoying because every enemy parries your counter kill moves. AC Brotherhood and Revelations are much more forgiving in that aspect

@KidBoruto Well Arkham Origins was from a different developer (the same developer of Arkham Knight I think) than rocksteady and was still set within the Arkham storyline/franchise

If true, this would be huge for PSVR2

Well, you can add this to that infamous "Killed by Google" list

@Dpishere I know - whenever he spoke to his daughter on the phone, it sounded like he was talking to his wife, girlfriend, sister, etc

@Dpishere Agreed. The person who played Sam in Blacklist sounded way too young

Thank goodness. Ethan Winters is up there with Aidan from Dying Light 2 as one of the most generic game protagonists in recent memory

I can't say I'm happy about this turn of events...

What's the deal with all these brawler games releasing around the same time?

I just find it odd that Batman is dead in this storyline, and Batman "died" at the end of Arkham Knight, but the two games are in separate universes. Seems like a missed opportunity

@roylaza They need to do SOMETHING. I'm pretty sure this is the only large scale, AAA PS4 game that doesn't run properly on PS5. Ubisoft should be embarrassed that they've let this problem persist for so long

VC ... microtransactions....no rookie difficulty.....VC...... etc..

@roylaza Seriously, I'm in the middle of replaying all the AC games, and I'm currently on Unity. Ubisoft had better finish the patch soon - it's going on two years now that this has been an issue

But when will the PS5 patch for Syndicate be finished??

If it still has VC ingrained into progression, then no thanks

@get2sammyb I have to ask: is Left Behind still relegated to the menu, or has it been worked into the main story?

I see that Ubisoft still hasn't patched Assassin's Creed Syndicate....

@zupertramp Simple - after the university scene where Joel gets shot and falls off the horse, but before the "WINTER" scene transition. Or after that but before Ellie starts hunting the deer and meets David. And I literally just finished a playthrough of TLoU remastered right before they announced Part 1😂

@zupertramp It would be nice if they gave you the option. Similar to what certain director's cut blu rays do - let you watch the film with extra content built in. Seeing how nothing is really added, aside from the remade graphics (and this is not a complaint, mind you), it'd be cool to experience the Left Behind story without having to leave the main game and select it from the menu. This is a full-priced, PS5 only gave, why not go all the way, you know?

Looks like they changed the aiming reticle, at least for the bow. In the original it was a curved green line

@zupertramp But is it incorporated into the main game? Probably not, but it feels like a missed opportunity to make a more cohesive story experience
