@Orochilocka not every one. I thought it was ok at first but then quickly found it dull, repetitive and had annoying characters with pi*s poor dialogue
@darkswabber I played both on PSP when they came out and later on PS3. Both are superb games. Ghost of Sparta was the best looking game on PSP, looked amazing when it came out.
I'm a fan of both the original God of war games and the 2018 reboot style.
I would love a collection and would buy it day one should they do that but if they add them as playstation classics I'd play them too but hoping for proper remastered versions rather than emulated versions
@Jrs1 I like the look of it but not played any of the Yakuza/like a dragon games. Can you come into this as a newbie and not be completely at sea (pun intended)
The 2 I was most interested in this month don't get a mention, Lost records (started it and enjoying it very much from what I've played) and Somerville.
@Ilovecoffee I think the point is having series s versions as mandatory by Xbox is holding back many multi platform games. If Devs were allowed to opt out of Series S versions ps5 and Series X would benefit more
@Korgon that's my stance too. I've loved hell blade, enslaved,DMC and heavenly sword so want to play this too and make my OWN mind up
Just cause a lot of people say something I'd crap doesn't mean it is, some people are just sheep and repeat what they read without playing the game. (Not that I'm in anyway suggesting that anyone in here is guilty of that btw, most on here seem like actual gamers)
I was mildly put out that couldn't sync trophies or look on PSN but I only play single player games so the outage didn't really disturb my gaming plans
Played PAC world and own high on life. Both good games but not good month for me cause if that fact but I don't think its as bad as some are making out. Not in the slightest

Re: PS Plus Essential PS5, PS4 Games for March 2025 Announced
@Orochilocka fair point. Didn't read it properly. It's an 'ok' game at best in my opinion.

@WolfyTn didn't notice that 😂
Re: PS Plus Essential PS5, PS4 Games for March 2025 Announced
@Rabid_Gamer I didn't mind the graphics even on performance mode.

Re: PS Plus Essential PS5, PS4 Games for March 2025 Announced
Great month for most surely?
I recently got DA veilguard but got rid as felt burned out and dialogue and response choices were poor.
Looking forward to playing some turtles games

Is there a date for Indian Jones on PS5 yet? Hoping it's before my birthday in May

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 569
@somnambulance agreed about the dialogue and how the game was judged my many who had likely never even played it.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 569
@Shepherd_Tallon very much and underrated game. Even didn't mind the story
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 569
@Jrs1 Cheers. I'll maybe try the demo and see what I think
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 569
@Fuzzymonkeyfunk I got bored of it at around the halfway mark unfortunately.
Loved or for 5 hours or so then fatigue set in and then it was a chore.
Pity as want more AA games

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 569
Lost records. Enjoying it so far. Sad is it is like trying to find the birds and critters to film.
Got Darksiders 2 PS5 version to try and give a change of pace and after lost records got life is strange double exposure to try
Re: Sony's Pricey PS5 Pro Is Now Being Outpaced by PS4 Pro Launch Aligned in the US
The price is ridiculous. It's the main problem. The base PS5 is already very expensive. The pro is just ridiculous.
It's not a big enough leap on frame rates or resolution to justify the premium price and it seems consumers are voting with their wallets
Re: Hobbit Life Sim Tales of the Shire Has Been Delayed Again, Now Out in July
This just isn't looking good. Not for me. The LOTR brand look's to have been tarnished in recent years

Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows' 'Canon Mode' Makes Fans Ponder the Point of RPG Options
I think I will play it this way if I get it. I would rather have better flow than what often is a meaningless choice

Re: Lost Records: Bloom & Rage - Tape 1 (PS5) - Slow Burn Opener Means Part 2 Must Deliver
Got it downloaded ready to play later. Looking forward to it. Read very little. Not seen too much so going in fairly blind

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 568
@Titntin atlas fallen is fun in it's gameplay but it's story is boring and couldn't be bothered with it
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for February 2025?
I was going to hold on for reviews then maybe get lost records so now can just download it and play it without waiting. Been wanting Somerville too
Re: After Astro Bot's Success, Expect More Family PS5 Games from PS Studios
It's a no brainer. Sold well and was critically acclaimed. These are 2 massive things for Sony
Re: 1,500 PS5, PS4 Games Discounted in Latest Huge PS Store Sale
@Jrs1 if it gets a native ps5 port I'll play it again. Still looked great on back compat tho. £9.99 is a steal.
Re: Xbox Game Hellblade 2 Might Be Out for PS5 'Very Soon'
@naruball I ignored all the hate forespoken got as I had quite enjoyed the demo.
Id plumped for Atomic Heart and didn't like it and traded it for forespoken and was very glad I did.
The consensus isn't always right and even if it is a game everyone hates could be one you like. I like to make my own mind up

Re: Poll: Did the PSN Outage Ruin Your Gaming Plans Over the Weekend?
I was mildly put out that couldn't sync trophies or look on PSN but I only play single player games so the outage didn't really disturb my gaming plans
Re: Free PS Plus Extension for All Members Affected by PSN Outage
@breakneck you just pay full price for anything any time do you? Not shop around for better price? You're throwing money away if that's the case.
Getting the best price and taking advantage of deals is just being savvy. Everyone should do it. Most people do do it
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 567
@Nightcrawler71 Cheers. That's what I was hoping to hear
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 567
@Nightcrawler71 how does Ocean horn 2 run? Loved the first but heard bad things about switch version of 2
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 567
@Kiefer-Sutherland I started Dragon age last week. Enjoying it so far.
Re: Sonic X Shadow Generations Speeds Past 2 Million Copies Sold
Finished both sonic and shadow parts last week particularly enjoyed the shadow campaign
Re: Sonic X Shadow Generations Speeds Past 2 Million Copies Sold
@Oram77 100% agreed
Re: How Well Do You Know Ratchet & Clank?
Happy with 11 as didn't play many of the original games. Only really got into the series with tools of destruction on PS3. Love the series now
Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard Failed Because It Wasn't Live Service, EA CEO Seems to Suggest
I got this on Saturday. Enjoying what I've played so far. It's accessible and combat is easy to get to grips with and find it engaging.
It's ideal for me as doesn't look as in depth as other RPGs.
I can say this for certain though. If it was a live service I would not have got it and feel I'm definitely not alone in that
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2?
I'm tempted to try it at some point. Looks like a technical marvel too
Re: Sackboy Dev Cancels New IP to Focus on Game Production for Partners
@Blauwe_Chimay good isn't it. Underrated in my eyes
Re: Sackboy Dev Cancels New IP to Focus on Game Production for Partners
Id love a sackboy big adventure sequel

Re: Old But Not Forgotten, Far Cry New Dawn Gets 60fps Patch on PS5
I really enjoyed this when it came out. May have another blast on it
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 566
Not had much gaming time so far this weekend.
What little I have had has been on the Shadow part of Sonic x Shadow generations after finishing the sonic campaign.
Shadows part is way better than I expected. Loads of fun.
Bought Dragon age veilguard to try. May start that today to test it out
Re: Rumour: Gears of War to Make PS5 Debut with Full Crossplay in Trilogy Collection
When I had my 360 and even when I have my Xbox one I tried several times to get into Gears and never could.
Not sure why but just never clicked with me.
I'll pass on this and get Halo and hope for Hellblade 2 and Ori. Looking forward to Indy too
Re: Poll: Are You Buying Forza Horizon 5 on PS5?
I'm not a racing game fan usually but loved playing horizon 2 on Xbox one when I briefly owned one.
It's something I'd love to play but wouldn't want it at full price unless maybe in a serious gaming lull
Re: Halo PS5 Rumours Intensify in Aftermath of Forza Horizon 5 Reveal
@get2sammyb depends on your tastes. Forza horizon is more academy and less of a sim.
I personally don't like GT or Forza Motorsport but love Forza horizon
Re: Forza Horizon 5 Confirmed for PS5, Out This Spring
I'm not into racing games really but I loved Forza horizon 2 when I had an Xbox one. It played like a dream ran and looked great and wax just fun.
May have to get this one down the line
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for February 2025 Announced
@RoomWithaMoose 100% with you on this thought process.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for February 2025 Announced
High on life was loads of fun and pac world was a decent remake.
Seems no matter what is offered people complain.
If they offer a big game people say but I already have that. If they offer something unique they say no one wants that.
Why not just let subscription run out and then stop moaning?
Re: Silent Hill 2 Has Been Massively Successful on PS5, PC
It's superb. Loved the game
Re: Xbox Rips Off the Band Aid, 'Expect Our Games to Show Up in More and More Places'
@Medic_alert I'm not suggesting I'll buy it day 1 at full price. I'm savvy, always wait for a sale. Never pay more than I feel id want to.
It sounds like a marmite game to be fair, critics loved it seems and consumers didn't from what I see.
I just like the look of it and loved the 1st so still want it at some point
