I've just started GOWR as I got it for christmas but yeah; that upgrade system was pretty bad in 2018 and I really don't dig they kept that.

I get it; every game needs to be 'open world-ish' with 'rpg elements' but it's getting OLD.

It could be interesting and glad they're not just retelling the books.

The Bully idea posted above sounds interesting.

I really hope Sony doesn't nix crossplay on this as I'm PS5 only now and my friend's are PC players. If I can't crossplay from the PS5 I might just get rid of it and get an XBSX and be done with Sony completely.

God of War is nice but not good enough imo.

Red Dead needs more improvements than just 60fps patch.

Let's start at h....o..........w............s...............l......o.................w............i..................t............................i...........................................................................................................s. Work our way from there.

@Michael2008ish

I'm not going to judge this one as I have Dead Space and never played it; will wait for the new one I guess but you are dead on regarding Doom.

Doom Eternal is a horrific, unplayable mess imo.

no crossplay? that should be a requirement anymore. No reason to segregate players in MP.

One of those games that hopefully by the time I might pick it up for 5$ it'll be in the best place they can make it.

@trev666

Just examples.

Sony needs to be aggressive getting new games out on Sonypass. If not then yeah; it'll suck.

Also really should be putting their 1st party stuff on it. Even if it's 1 month off or something.

Does Sony's program have the same day 1 games as MS?

So you see a game come out and folks are immediately chiming in they're playing on Gamepass. Does Sony have that or is their service just old PS4 games and 1 off Sony PS5 games? I didn't think Sony's thing was near as robust.

Here's what Sony can do; copy MS and get games on the service day 1. So say that Evil West game should be on Sony's thing if it's on Gamepass. Need for speed? If it's on Gamepass Sony should have it too. Make the deals.

Also fire Jim Ryan. Fire him now.

Once this drops I guess I'll install the game and play.

I didn't play enough on PC to even know what a lot of these things would even do to the game though; like the sigil thing.

Hopefully combat isn't so jank and is smoothed out some. Wonder if the 60fps mode is just the PS4 code at 60 or does that mean it's the PC ultra-ish just minus the RT at 60fps. That'd be fine.

@Athrum

That's all I'm expecting. I've only played on my 970 PC and it was fine but needed a bit more with hairworks and all that stuff.

I would like them to clean up the combat but if not I'll deal. I only played a bit on the PC so it'll basically be starting fresh.

@LIMA

Maybe but having 60fps is a must imo.

Or just wait for a PS5 pro and go for more gfx at 60fps for GOW 6.

No thanks.

VR is still extremely niche and may never go full mainstream. None of the VR stuff has ever interested me and nothing does at this launch either.

Maybe someday there will be that killer app.

@Thumper

What's a PC exclusive? Some RTS in some dusty corner? Some 4x4 or whatever those games are?

@Cikajovazmaj

It's a bit rough on the PS5. PC for the win and XBSX if you don't have a fat PC.

Sadly Plague Tale doesn't hold up on the PS5 compared to the other twins so I guess sub 30 is where it's at again. Just like the good ol' PS3 days.

I'd take 60 with a lower res/less shiny over 30 but IF things have to go 30 they need good motion blur and they have to be rock solid 30. No shenanigans.

@jrt87

they bought a special box; Just not one sold by sony.

At least there's a 60 option. I'll take that all day long.

When was this a PS2 classic? It was terrible on the PS2.

I tried this one for the first time on the Wii and it was too Resident Evil for me. Awful controls/bad viewpoint/slow.

@naruball

I think folks are expecting more now. Honestly I'd keep making games PS4-ish and keep 60fps. These consoles are about 2 gens behind the PC gfx race now so trying to do too much will just melt em.

Keep Unreal4/whatever runs on the ps4/XB1X and crank it to a solid 60+ fps imo.

Well I picked up Ghostbusters cause why not.

Hopefully a good one to play out through Halloween. Been playing a lot of Days Gone and it's getting repetitive as can be.

I'm going to grab this one of these days.

I played waay back at launch but it was a totally different game.

I don't have a love for endless games but I'll find a cheap disc copy and give it another whirl.

Heck; I've only played like 3 hours or so of it anyway so IF Sony would huck me the remastered code for like 10$ I'd take it.

Meh; if one doesn't like it then don't buy it.

They can do multiple things at once (other than correct VRR I guess). So remaking whatever isn't taking away from anything else. This ain't an all or nothing situation or some fifo queue.

I want to like Rampage. Tried to like it over the years but man it was always too slow and cumbersome.

This looks interesting and for 5$ I'd give it a whirl.

Sounds a little long imo.

Keep em to max 8hrs or so. Maybe those side paths make it longer but the main game shouldn't take more than 8 imo.

@Voltan

If it were that way I might would pay 10$ since I got the OG for like 9$ and haven't played much of it.

I wouldn't rebuy even at like 30$ though as the og looks fine enough after the 60fps patch.

@naruball

The games are the same on both sides. GOW is ok but I don't really care about any other Sony 1st party stuff. They certainly ain't Nintendo on that front.

I just found a PS5 first so I got it. If it were an XBSX I'd have that instead.

@pip_muzz

I agree a bit.

GOW was fine but i'd have rather had the camera pulled back a bit. Kratos took up too much screen imo.

I have DS 1/2 on Steam but never played for whatever reason. I loaded 1 up for maybe 10 minutes but quit. I don't remember why. May have been it was a bit too much RE in movement style as I can't play any of those till they went first person.

Don't remember though. Could have just been I got caught up in something else and forgot about it.

Every time I hear anything Sony is doing it's dumb.

The gaming side has to be run by the dumbest of the dumb.

Can't really judge it on a promo-vid.

Not a big fan of the Japanese samurai/ninja type setting stuff so pass for me most likely.

That white is so ugly.

I'd expect those things to be just the normal wireless NC headphones with a mic I'd guess. Supposedly they're not bad.

I use a pair of Bose something or others and they're fine.

Looks like what little I've seen of the game.

Not really into more post apocalyptic stuff so I'll probably catch it sometime but not worried about it.

Darth EA.

I guess that's life.

It wasn't very good originally so why would a 'remake' or whatever be any good?

All I remember was it being nifty cause 'cell shaded' when that wasn't done to death.

DF did a good one on this.

Motorstorm games looked pretty good even on the pretty rough PS3 hardware.

Not OLED?

Sony really isn't good at this anymore. Have a coworker with a new Sony OLED and it's got a lot of oddball issues with black frame insertion, vrr, and other things.

Used to be a fan when the Bravia stuff was new 10 + years ago but would never buy another sony tv/monitor now.

Why keep the 50hz setting at all?

Unless I guess the game was PAL only and it would funk up timing or something in game.

Just release everything @ 60hz and be done with it.

This gen is basically a 1440/60 gen and 4k 30 tops if that depending on drs.

So I think most devs should be aiming for 1440/60 and add the 4k thing in for anyone that just needs that (I have a 4k tv and 1440 is fine).

1080 does seem low unless one has an XBSS. Guess Digital Foundry will let us all know when it releases.

@Northern_munkey

Agreed. I'd rather have the devs make the games in an old engine and get that working. These always look too oddball to me and this one looks way too busy.

I haven't seen anything in the VR space that's worth paying to get so we'll see.

VR seems to be a niche and that's not a bad thing.

Sounds too long to me.

Keep it 10 or so and I'm good. I moved out of my mother's basement decades ago.

Well according to some TLOU remake/master is the satan spawn of games and should've been gifted to the players and how dare they charge money for it blah blah blah.

MK8 has like what; 100 tracks now.

Smaller scope is something I'd like to see more of.

Give me 8-10 hours of a really good story/game. Not 100 of fetch quests and icons strewn across a samey 'open world'.

Publishers have just gotten lazy. Ubisoft being the worst offender imo.

@willi3su

Don't even think I got that far. I got into town, played about 10 minutes of that silly card game, then fought some blue guys. After that I gave up as it was just not very fun with lead pants mcgee.

I don't need some craziness like Bayonetta but Witcher guy was just a chore to fight with.

@YeoSprings

That is one of the things that put me off originally.

The char moves like he's wearing lead shoes and the combat is full jank at best. I also hope they ironed that out but wouldn't be surprised if this is just a shinier coat of paint.

@Shstrick

Oh right.

It's not installed after checking. Just in there when I got the thing on sale.

So yeah, license in hand; just waiting for the application availability.

Installed and ready for the update to start playing.

Put in maybe 2 hours on PC and couldn't get into it but maybe now I'll be able to. I surely hope the update looks better than the OG did on my old 970. Hairworks was fun for like 5 minutes I guess.

@BartoxTharglod

Yeah. Sony definitely phones in stuff like that. VRR should've been to the freesync standard but nope. Sony just did the laziest thing other than just not adding it.

Looks interesting but I don't think I'm a huge fan of this type of pixel art. Not a fan of the low definition characters.

Rather see hand drawn stuff if I were king of the universe.
