Still looks like a pricey tech-demo to me. But hey, glad to see Sonic fans may finally get something decent? Even if the reviews are all over the place lol.
Rush of Blood was simple, yet really well done imo. Glad to see they are doing another game in same vein. Shame I probably won't be playing it though. Can't justify the PSVR2 price.
The story in the first game was fantastic. Feel like this remake it mostly to do justice to the combat cause my god, was it awful in a otherwise good game. And also, available for more platforms is a definitely good thing.
Part of me really wants it cause its Star Ocean. But there's just something about it that makes me wanna look the other way instead. Maybe get it when its cheap.
And yeah. The Bug fixes is kinda hilarious. After 8 years they decide to fix their game. (Or possibly make it worse? Bethesda after all so could go either way)
Yeah.. This looks incredible every single time they show it of. And my god, the music being played. Soken is on point! This is the first time since FFX i've been this excited for Final Fantasy.
>No upgrade path from PS4 >No save transfer from PS4 >Full price, again
Yeah.. Glad to see you actually mentioning that. Still such a scummy move. Such a ridiculous lazy cash grab. And worst part is, its gonna sell. Atlus always get away with crap like this.
Fantastic article to read!
Accessibility over the last few years has taken such a huge step forward, and its amazing. Nowadays you are even seeing indie devs adding accessibility to their games, even with a limited budget. It's so fantastic to see. Sometimes its even just the small things that can make a difference, if someone can play a game or not.
(Still hope more devs add font text-size to their games as well however. This is another thing that always seem to be missing)
Didn't have much faith in this tbh. But after watching that trailer? It looks pretty damn good and faithful to the games. Actually excited for this now.
The fact that the devs has to speak out about this is RIDICULOUS. And people wonder why more and more devs are disabling comments on social media. They are literally being forced to do cause of crap like this.
Its better to be honest and delay it, then to release it a mess and then fix it as time goes on. Seem like the right call if they aren't confident enough in how it is now.
That's some impressive numbers honestly for what used to be a niche series (can't really say that anymore). Curious to know how big a % the west adds to that number. Especially considering marketing for the games in the west has been... Not great.
I know some people are up in arms with the "You have ruined the games with the awful new look!" etc. But I personally think it looks amazing. Actually feels like Konami is putting some serious effort into it. Can't wait to replay them!
They better be free if you already purchased them. And no, not taking a cheap discount to upgrade. Already paid once, not paying again. But I really doubt its gonna be free.
Honestly expected it to be out in 2023. But not January. The fact we had no date for ages and only a release year so it pointed towards they weren't sure if they could be done by 2022. But something to look forward to!
Such a weird decision. But can only assume they actually messed around with it and somehow made it work while working on the PS5 version. But glad that people without a PS5 can get to enjoy it as well.
Gave the demo a shot, and im actually very much enjoying it. But I do agree with what some people say, the graphics are not good, especially if you play on a PS5. Can definitely feel and see its a low budget game.
After all the bs with Kimura agency, I really do hope this ends up being legit. Similar to Yakuza, more people really do deserve to play Judgment as well.
Still no interest in the game. But glad to see CDPR realized it just isn't worth it for last-gen (sucks for those without PS5 however!). Clearly wanna avoid running into the same disaster once more.
Gave New Genesis a go. Sure looks and runs better then OG PSO2, but its just as dull and grindy. Unfortunately not very fun and honestly not very friendly. So much stuff that barely gets explained and things that don't get explained at all. Honestly expected with New Genesis they would do better, but it just feels like PSO2 with new paint.
Its nice to see so much content in the package. But that really also makes you even more worried about the price. Surely all of that stuff would increase the cost. But again, its nice to see an actual package with basically everything.

Re: Mini Review: Return to Monkey Island (PS5) - Original Creators Return to Beloved Point and Click
Great review! Bought it on release on Switch and absolutely loved it. Glad to see this version is just as good, and now more people can enjoy it.
Re: Sonic Frontiers (PS5) - Bold New Gamble for the Series Pays Off
Still looks like a pricey tech-demo to me. But hey, glad to see Sonic fans may finally get something decent? Even if the reviews are all over the place lol.
Re: God of War Ragnarok (PS5) - A Dazzling Crown Jewel in Sony's Catalogue
Can't say im surprised at all. Honestly impressed how they managed to pull this off twice in a row. And this time during Covid as well.
Re: Mini Review: The Chant (PS5) - Nothing Special Whatsoever
Yikes. I expected better.
Re: PS1 Classic Syphon Filter 3 Could Be a New PS Plus Premium Game
Seeing 3 being added wouldn't surprise me. Seem like 1 and 2 was quiet popular in general when they dropped, at least outside of Premium.
Re: The Dark Pictures Brings a Fresh Rush of Blood to PSVR2
Rush of Blood was simple, yet really well done imo. Glad to see they are doing another game in same vein. Shame I probably won't be playing it though. Can't justify the PSVR2 price.
Re: Death Stranding Would Not Exist without Band Low Roar
Heartbreaking. That is such a young age.
Re: The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me Was Inspired by the Saw Films, and It Shows
Actually enjoyed all of the games so far in one way or another. And the direction they are taking this has me really intrigued. Looking forward to it.
Re: The Witcher Remake Announced, Rebuilt in Unreal Engine 5
The story in the first game was fantastic. Feel like this remake it mostly to do justice to the combat cause my god, was it awful in a otherwise good game. And also, available for more platforms is a definitely good thing.
Re: Round Up: Star Ocean: The Divine Force Reviews Say It's Pretty Good
Part of me really wants it cause its Star Ocean. But there's just something about it that makes me wanna look the other way instead. Maybe get it when its cheap.
Re: Fallout 4 PS5 Version Confirmed for 2023 Release, Includes Creation Club Content
Bethesda re-releasing their games? Shocking!
And yeah. The Bug fixes is kinda hilarious. After 8 years they decide to fix their game. (Or possibly make it worse? Bethesda after all so could go either way)
Re: New Final Fantasy 16 Trailer Is Over 4 Minutes of World Building Goodness
@KundaliniRising333
Its a PS5 exclusive. No last-gen version.
Re: Sony Posts Tone-Deaf Bloodborne Tweet, Chaos Ensues
Aaaaand they deleted the tweet. Lol
Re: Sony Posts Tone-Deaf Bloodborne Tweet, Chaos Ensues
Feel like they are just doing this to piss of people at this point. They know exactly what they are doing. Lol
Re: New Final Fantasy 16 Trailer Is Over 4 Minutes of World Building Goodness
Yeah.. This looks incredible every single time they show it of. And my god, the music being played. Soken is on point! This is the first time since FFX i've been this excited for Final Fantasy.
Re: Mini Review: Persona 5 Royal (PS5) - Still One of the Best JRPGs Ever Made, Despite PS4 Disrespect
>No upgrade path from PS4

Yeah.. Glad to see you actually mentioning that. Still such a scummy move. Such a ridiculous lazy cash grab. And worst part is, its gonna sell. Atlus always get away with crap like this.
Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying the DualSense Edge PS5 Controller, Now We Have a Price?
Absolutely not. Paying that much for a controller is ludicrous.
Re: DualSense Edge PS5 Controller Is Coming Soon, and It's Pricey
Yep. That's insane. Expected it to be expensive. But even that was higher then I expected.
Surely they are gonna sell them cheaper without all the unnecessary extra stuff. (right?!)
Re: Dead Space's Jaw-Dropping PS5 Remake Adds Extra Exploration
Normally not a fan of remakes that tries to change too much. But actually really digging what they are doing with this. Stoked!
Re: Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden Get January 2023 Release Date on PS4
>here's hoping that Atlus doesn't screw us console players.
Haaah. Just watch. Atlus will screw us over. They usually do.
Re: Six-Year-Old Celebrates After Conquering Astro's Playroom on PS5
This is adorable.
Re: A Plague Tale: Requiem Average Playthrough Will Take 15-18 Hours, and 'There's No Filler'
Seems like a good length. I’ll take a shorter game with no filler over a 30+ hours game with filler any day.

Re: Onimisha Finally Returns... As a Netflix Anime
It does make me wonder if Capcom might be looking into bringing back the games.
As far as the anime goes? I really don't like the art-style. Was the same with Dragon's Dogma one. But im sure there's people who will enjoy it.
Re: Apex Legends Studio Respawn Speaks Out Against Ongoing Dev Harassment
The fact that the devs has to speak out about this is RIDICULOUS. And people wonder why more and more devs are disabling comments on social media. They are literally being forced to do cause of crap like this.
Re: PS5, PS4 Port of Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth Delayed to December
Its better to be honest and delay it, then to release it a mess and then fix it as time goes on. Seem like the right call if they aren't confident enough in how it is now.
Re: Falcom's Trails Series Tops 7 Million Sales
That's some impressive numbers honestly for what used to be a niche series (can't really say that anymore).
Curious to know how big a % the west adds to that number. Especially considering marketing for the games in the west has been... Not great.
Re: Random: YouTuber Exposed As Embargo Breaking Video Game Insider
He's a jackass. Simple. What he did straight up screws over others. Now publishers are gonna be even more strict with who they talk with and it sucks.
Hope for his sake he has a good lawyer, cause I can't see this is gonna be ignored by the publishers.
Re: Suikoden Remaster Comparison Shows a Stunning Revival on PS4
I know some people are up in arms with the "You have ruined the games with the awful new look!" etc. But I personally think it looks amazing. Actually feels like Konami is putting some serious effort into it. Can't wait to replay them!
Re: Rumour: Tons of PSVR2 Devs Porting PSVR Games to New Headset
They better be free if you already purchased them. And no, not taking a cheap discount to upgrade. Already paid once, not paying again. But I really doubt its gonna be free.
Re: Hotly Anticipated Indie Hollow Knight: Silksong Confirmed for PS5, PS4
Good to see it finally has been announced for Sony consoles. (Still getting it for Switch however)
Re: One Piece Odyssey Isn't Launching in 2022 After All
Honestly expected it to be out in 2023. But not January. The fact we had no date for ages and only a release year so it pointed towards they weren't sure if they could be done by 2022.
But something to look forward to!
Re: Resident Evil 4 Remake Is Now Coming to PS4 as Well
Such a weird decision. But can only assume they actually messed around with it and somehow made it work while working on the PS5 version. But glad that people without a PS5 can get to enjoy it as well.
Re: Square Enix Action RPG Valkyrie Elysium's Demo Out Now on PS5, PS4
Gave the demo a shot, and im actually very much enjoying it. But I do agree with what some people say, the graphics are not good, especially if you play on a PS5. Can definitely feel and see its a low budget game.
Re: Square Enix Action RPG Valkyrie Elysium's Demo Releases Tomorrow on PS5, PS4
Good call on SE for doing a demo. The reception for this game seem very mixed. So allowing people to try first, is always welcome.
Re: Judgment, Lost Judgment Rated for PC, Could Be a Good Sign for Series' Future
After all the bs with Kimura agency, I really do hope this ends up being legit. Similar to Yakuza, more people really do deserve to play Judgment as well.
Re: Classic Action RPG Tales of Symphonia Is Back for More on PS4 in Early 2023
So freaking happy to see this. Always happy for more Tales, even if older, and Symphonia is incredible.
Also as a heads up for those interested: Physical Chosen Edition can be pre-ordered from Bandai's website.
Re: Wii Exclusive Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse Heads West on PS5, PS4 Next Year
@LiamCroft Ah god dammit. Hoped they had learned from last time, but seem not. Here's hoping for another Asia English release then.
Re: Wii Exclusive Fatal Frame: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse Heads West on PS5, PS4 Next Year
It feels unreal that Koei Tecmo actually did listen to the fan demand. Always happy for more Project Zero!
Now the question is: Are we getting a physical release in the west with this one. I sure hope so.
Re: Square Enix Sends Babylon's Fall to the Grave in February 2023
At least they announced this rather fast instead of just bleeding money into it.
Re: Assassin's Creed Finally Goes to Japan as Ubisoft Takes on Ghost of Tsushima
@nessisonett Completely agree with you.
I honestly don't see the connection between this and Tsushima. And comparing these two just feels wrong.
Re: Captain America, Black Panther Title Revealed Without a Name
Hard to be interested when there was basically nothing being shown. Heck, there isn't even a name.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty Expansion Revealed, PS5 Only in 2023
Still no interest in the game. But glad to see CDPR realized it just isn't worth it for last-gen (sucks for those without PS5 however!). Clearly wanna avoid running into the same disaster once more.
Re: What Remains of Edith Finch PS5 Upgrade Now Free For Those with PS4 Version via PS Plus
Good on the devs on changing this! Also its an incredible game.
Re: Massive F2P Action RPG Phantasy Star Online 2: New Genesis Is Out Now on PS5, PS4

Re: Bungie No Longer Removing Destiny 2 Expansions People Paid For
Im honestly surprised Bungie got away with doing this for so long. And now blaming it on the engine? Seem like BS to me.
Re: Sony Reveals Official PS5 Pro Controller, DualSense Edge
The look is nice. But the 4 new buttons? Nah. Really don't need more.
Re: Brief The Last of Us HBO Clip Posted Online
I honestly don't have too much faith in it. But I do have to admit Pascal, or whatever his name is definitely NAILED Joel's voice.
