@mvhess Nod. Also, about the blockbuster thing, I think arcades played a part too. Much better value proposition in the long term for parents. $40 game vs infinite quarters.
@mvhess We were beating that game well before Nintendo Power was even a thing. We just tried everything, burning every bush, pushing every stone, yada yada. Then we shared what we learned with our friends around the neighborhood. I look back on those times pretty fondly in fact.
Had to turn off RT due to some serious screen edge jank that occurred in dark areas. Also I just played Tormented Souls II the other week so this was like playing a watered down Hollywood version of that. I mean I’ll play it eventually because they’re not bad games but they’ve long abandoned what made them my favorite PS1 games.
Dude between this, Urban Myth Dissolution Center, and now Shrodinger's Call, this publisher has found themselves a very nice niche. Check out Un:Me if you liked Silent Hill F / Fatal Frame II Remake.
Definitely want to hide certain games. Sure I can hide them from others for PSN Profiles purposes but I’d really like to discard those games where all I did was watch the intro movie.
Its not all sunshine and rainbows. The wood trimming throughout the nursing home interior is still shimmery as hell. Really would have liked to see PSSR 2’s AA handle that.

Schrodinger’s Call. Want to start a JRPG soon.

Re: This Viral App Turns Your PlayStation History into a Scrollable Timeline
Thats pretty nice. I can’t believe how much PS5 I’ve played in such little time.
Re: Bungie Is Not Making Destiny 3, Dev to Be Rocked by 'Significant' Layoffs
I’ll never understand how that PR spin about buying Bungie for their live service expertise gained traction.
Re: 'No Comment': Darksiders Publisher Refuses to Explain $10 PS5 Upgrade Charge That's Free on Xbox
Owners of the steam pc version will receive the upgrade for free.

No more homogenization. Everybody back in their own lane.
Re: 'Looks Like We Got Sucker Punched': Ghost of Yotei Fans Gutted Support Has Ended for Free Co-Op Mode
If this is less support than the previous iteration got then they’re justified in expecting more. And it’s not free, it’s part of what they paid for.
Re: These 24+ New PS5 and PS Plus Games Are Coming Out Next Week (18th-24th May)
Luna Abyss demo is dope but i think the bullet hell stylings are going to draw comparisons to Saros with them releasing so close.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for May 2026?
I am not satisfied. I’m all for B-tier games and bargain bin finds but this month’s selection is a bit excessive.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 633
Tormented Souls II.
Re: PS5 Fighter Marvel Tokon Has a 10-Hour Single Player Story, But It's a Comic with No Gameplay
If its anything like the Guilty Gear Strive story mode, it's crap.

Yeah pretty happy about this news. Wrapped up Robotics;Notes just today in fact.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Part 3 Could Take the Story Even Further with DLC
If fans want, ha. They could spin FFVII off into its own series and it would probably outsell the mainline series.
Re: PS Store's Deals Section Missing as PS5 Breaks Its Streak of Constant Sales
Wouldn't it be nice if we could go back to the days of permanent price drops instead of the FOMO sale carousel?
Re: Sony's Not Pulling the Plug on Horizon Hunters Gathering, New PS5 and PC Beta Test Announced
Wonder which Sony multiplayer property will talk about its upcoming “story” content next.
Re: Lords of the Fallen 2's Idea of Female Armour Is Downright Embarrassing
Reality check: even a female would prefer the “problematic” designs over the three “good” ones.
Re: Rumour: Persona 4 Revival Release Date Narrowed Down to Early 2027
This is where we say farewell…
Until 2027
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Dev Says He's Beaten Part 3 Over 40 Times Already
I have no doubt he’s played the unpadded frame-only game that many times. And he didn’t suggest otherwise.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for May 2026?
Best of the year so far. They could swap out EA FC for anything and it would be even better.
Re: These Numbers Explain Why Sony Is Stopping Porting PS5 Games to PC
Windrose has sold more in two weeks than all those games combined, lifetime. Just a different audience.
