We got retroachievements, thanks

@EfYI oh please, did my comment crack your fragile corporate owned identity. You sound more like the orange-man to me.

@asdfghjklz games don't need to cost this much in order to be fun and innovate. Who even knows if there's any innovation here next to the pretty graphics.
So much of that budget just gets blown away for marketing and and upper management salaries. Like Sony wasting money on a Wolverine ad on the Las Vegas sphere. It all just lives off of the "too big to fail" narrative and I'm just tired of this very american way of business. Something GTA ironically satirises. It's like watching a high budget TV show on Amazon prime with an "eat the rich" narrative. It just doesn't sit well.

I think I got this game for free and several storefronts, so no thanks

At this pace the GitHub scene will have a decomp or recomp ready in no time. Hell, maybe even before the PS5 version officially releases. Serves take2 and Sony right.

Also to be noted... Push square is facilitating the stage for bashing the elderly.

I said it many times and will continue to do so... Star Wars is in a fantastic place right now, great games, great books, Ninth Jedi was awesome, Andor was so good, Mando and Grogu was dumb fun. I really feel like back in the pre-prequel trilogy days were we had so much fun expanded star wars media which is now considered non-canon legacy star wars.
The only stuff I found irredeemably bad was Solo and skeleton crew, while some other movies and series were mixed but with at least some good aspects about them.

Edge runners S2, blue eye samurai S2 and the sekiro anime will hold us over well. People should also really check out The Ninth Jedi.

I would get it if it were on a disc, too bad.

45€ new on Amazon mere weeks after release. Only on physical!

K-Youth exploitation simulator 2027. Please also release the same game in 30 cover variants to make it more authentic.

@rjejr Love your idea 🤣 got a soft spot for Johnny Mnemonic, but more as a guilty pleasure.

I think we'll be spoiled with cyberpunk media: the new ghost in the shell series, upcoming neuromancer & blade runner TV shows and of course S2 of edge runners. If this doesn't turn out we have enough other good alternatives.

I think more people have asked for split screen than any of the mentioned features.

@get2sammyb I think current Sony communication has been more cynical than anything that is posted here.

As for this, it feels like they're planning to pander to long term fans, just in time to make them fork over 1k. After that transaction it'll probably be back to indifferent Sony.

@Skyliner when the internet makes a sport of bashing a game, even before it's release. It wasn't the buggy mess people made it out to be at release and the open world content wasn't the usual asscreed filler, but was actually meaningful. I guess some took offense by the main protagonist being normal looking yet capable, oh my.

@kmtrain83 same tbh, except my occasional dabble in gran turismo

Some people forget or choose to overlook that star wars has been delivering really great media lately. The Ninth Jedi (seriously overlooked), Andor, Maul, the high republic books, Jedi games, Outlaws (yes, despite the internet writing it off just because it was ubisoft), zero company and now this. Even Mando & Grogu despite it being low stakes was a fun, silly movie, you know... Star Wars as it's always been. I feel like we're in a great pre-prequel era legacy universe.

@Jacko11 you can't serve two masters. Discussing public image negatively hasn't bothered Sony for the entire PS5 gen. Discussing in inadvertently advertising the possibility for piracy however, I think that'll make Sony get salty.

I wouldn't take this as redemption. Next thing would be a Bloodborne remaster? Too little too late.

Man, no split screen. Usually I'm not harsh on games but that would automatically downgrade it to a 7/10. What a botched opportunity for an otherwise stellar looking game.

@Jacko11 probably best to stay hush hush to avoid a bad relationship to your primary subject of coverage.

Could have been done sooner, but they wanted to sell a few more PS5 pros.

@Sejman22 After playing it I played the first two games via emulation. I don't get why the reboot is hated so much. I assume because of the gameplay switch from trpg to mecha action. I enjoy both. The assumption that people like safe remakes is mostly true, with boring results like mgs delta. Ff7 is actually very brave in it's approach though that has caused animosity by some fans.

Great, but at the same time... damn. That it's just being rumoured now, 6 years into the PS6s lifecycle. Instead we got mor tlou1&2 than anybody has ever asked for and little else. To think we had an entire amazing trilogy on the PS3, what a shame Sony!

They already did with the fantastic PS4 reboot, but nobody showed up unfortunately.
IMO Sega's most interesting properties next to Yakuza are Sakura wars, valkyria chronicles, shinobi, shenmue and jet set radio, none of which sold overwhelmingly well however.

Vincent D'Onofrio is a legend and the entire cast of Daredevil is top tier.
These trolls should just hide where they can't be seen or heard.

I just want more animated ones that aren't tied to a game.

Yes, many of these would be great if you trim away the gatcha fat and make it single player.

@TheSingularity thought so too. I guess we should take it as words of encouragement.

Considering the inefficiency of pc gaming it makes sense for the helix to need headspace.

As for ps6, if Sony would have waited with the digital only rugpull, announce the portable ps6 in which they make an argument how (disc based) physical media isn't "feasible" on a hybrid device (not that I agree with that view, see switch), continue physical on PS5 for the entirety of its life span, and then move on to an all digital future, people would have been more receptive to that idea.

Wow, I get some store credit back at the same level that I've overpaid through dynamic pricing and the overpayment alone through buying digital isn't even considered in this calculation!
Thank you Sony, we're all such lucky customers!

Man, that producer is credited on half of all known American horror movies of the last two decades.

I'd really like to see a new silent hill movie. I hope it'll either tell its own story or be based on silent hill f or the room. Even better, get norman reedus and kojima on board and adapt their original concept/script to a movie.

@Areus I said that a while back and people wanted to lynch me while spewing a lot of schadenfreude towards ninja theory.
It would have been a good fit, with the right audience on PS5 and financially feasible as they make AA budgeted games that look like AAA. Oh well.
The way Sony is going now it might be best if they find independent footing and aim for steam and Nintendo games.

This is survival of the most forgettable

That was an actual apology. I'm impressed in this day and age. I doubt Sony would muster the backbone to fess up. I mean, they are substantially involved in this mess and many more messes. Public opinion is in the gutter.

Got to see it, very fun, the entire theatre seemed to responded positive. Hits those game beats without cheap fan service and just never has a dull moment.

Still too busy with Onimusha and then Fire emblem for on the go. I'm mixed on this because I do love the no rules gravity mobility, but the visuals are just so muddy and dark. Also, while liking remedy games I'm not sure I would say they're as genius as video game essayists and commentators who want to prove they have impeccable taste, may want to make you believe.

@somnambulance nnk2 was weak unfortunately. I wished they'd have stronger ongoing collaboration with Ghibli.

@DartLOD because it's intriguing and builds on the world the games set up.

Switch 2 if physical.

@8th_Observer perhaps more like KP & XB are renewing their wedding vows 🤣

Fans have to ask themselves the question, is it better to make a film that all audiences can enjoy and introduce new people to the games, or is it better to make a purists "true to the original" cosplay fantasy that'll alienate viewers and leave an overall cheap impression of the franchise.

@TheArt I think they've got Bethesda beat in all positive aspects.

More brittle plastic garbage nobody asked for. Sony's annoying us with their take on apple's over-hyped branding.

@D6rkLordS6t6n I guess we both lean on conjecture there. But the amount of credit debt and waste that we produce is well documented.

@D6rkLordS6t6n I know many since I am one and also a socialist at that.

@AdamNovice time will tell. However none of us owe any of these corporations our loyalty or protection.

Well, I guess hookshot is already getting ready for Sony's eventual reckoning with the new Steamhype site. Pushsquare will probably have purexbox traffic in a few years from now. And for every smart*** saying "pc is digital too", duh... think of a more nuanced argument.
I'll be mostly well served on switch 2.
