@wildcat_kickz true, but that's on gameplay alone. Remove the TC branding and the series would still sell.

Is anything Tom Clancy still culturally relevant?!

Every single player game should have cheats. I don't have the time to get overly deep in the mechanics of every game or repeatedly play something if I hit a roadblock. Generally don't want roadblocks that ultimately keep me from finishing some games.
FF7 was easy on normal difficulty and I had no problems finishing it, but it would suck for someone to get stuck on the story because of difficulty. For that cheats are completely legitimate, so hats off to Square-Enix for implementing it.

Having those portable will be a big seller in Japan.

Beyond Yakuza, my most beloved sega series seem to be some of the most struggling ones, like Shenmue, Sakura Wars (that reboot, damn that was great), and most of all Valkyria Chronicles. VC deserves so much better!

Sam Bridges would be ashamed of that porter.

@CKFilms true, I wouldn't want a graphical jump between the games. Not as if PS4 to ps5 was a jump anyways.

@Whyarewestillhere hope so, but if they're going fully chronological there'd still be portable ops (doubt they'll revisit that), peace walker and mgsV first. I think a remaster of mgsV would suffice, as long as they change that you could do multiple ops on the ground without always having to fly in and out. That's a lot of material before we get to the games that need to be retold..

I also think Konami would probably prioritise mgs1 for popularity sake.

@Whyarewestillhere Absolutely agree, if any game needs the full remake treatment it's the original msx metal gears.
To see these moments play out, fully realized has been a long time dream of mine, ever since playing those two games with mgs3 subsistence on the PS2.

Looks great, but still working through death stranding 2 and mgsdelta before silent hill f arrives. I'll get it on sale and spare their servers.

@Kingy man, what a waste of resources.

@nomither6 nah, you're good. Though check out some classic anime if you ever feel up to it, might change your mind. Just have to sift through all the high school, isekai, harem garbage out there.

@Lowdefal have to agree with you. It's a case of white otakus "protecting" Japanese culture once again, though nobody asked.

I thought they already canned it as they should have. Both old school cocky Lara Croft and goody two shoes Jonah are insufferable.

Looks like a good mashup of all single player action adventures of the last 15 years, but I've seen prettier PS4 games albeit at a lower resolution/framrate than this. It has this boring plastic clean look the insomniac spiderman games have.

I would have tried to get Eiza Gonzales for the role.

Oh brother, had a good laugh.

It baffles me why people want these dust collector statues.

The best special editions focus on the media, with an art book, soundtrack or similar.

My favourite collector editions so far have been:

• Ni no Kuni: the entire Wizard's companion book with gorgeous Ghibli art and short stories.
• Unicorn Overlord: comes with a complete card game that's pretty sweet.
• Witcher 3 DLC: Gwent!
• Xenoblade Chronicle Games: amazing art books and soundtracks

Do you guys have any favourites?

Kenzan please!

Christophe Gans has done some great movies. Shocked that this is his first new movie since 2014!

Perhaps the trailer was just edited in this loud fashion. I do hope the movie has more of a sombre feel to it.

I'm really happy that the Japanese greats: Sega, Konami, Capcom, Square-Enix, koei-tecmo, bandai-namco and Nintendo of course, are all growing stronger and making the games that make it worth being a gamer.

I don't quite get these download only discs and Nintendo's game key cards.
Wouldn't avoiding physical players having to download massive files spare them some burden on their servers? Expanding the infrastructure and maintaining it doesn't come cheap either. It's not a "one and done" expense.

What is truly free I'd say.

Absolutely adore this game and the genre. Good that it's on playstation, but switch or handheld PC are still the best place to play.

I thought the sub was directed towards Kojima: stop being a baby and try mgs delta when it releases!

The man loves the smell of his own farts. If he'd make a movie the way he makes games they'd be unwatchable.

Mgs1 was the only truly cinematic game he made, and while the plots were still enjoyable until peace walker (and parts of mgsV) he's just become way to pretentious with his "auteur" status.

I truly hope someone picks up the series, reboots it and does away with the cringe exposition, fan service etc. Unhealthy fanboys will be outraged and act like it's sacrilege, but to hell with it! The base plot of mgs is too cool to sleep on it while pretending that only his majesty Kojima can do something great with it.

Kojima started out as Francis Ford Copolla, Apocalypse Now, Godfather but has turned into Megalopolis over the last 10-15 years.

@Mr_Singh just had a newborn then, so time was limited.

Saw the trailer and knew it'll be fire, and I don't even care about kpop. It's an all-round good family movie.
Kids really generate lots of streams. They can watch/listen to stuff on an endless loop. Dunno how often I already heard soda pop 😵‍💫

Games as big and epic as Witcher 3 don't make sense on a subscription service. I needed a year to finish it.

Don't understand why the industry seldomly announces new stuff at Gamescom. Same goes for tgs, but at least they get some cool Japanese niche announcements.

Great, so that that's out of the way it won't take up any time at the next state of play... Am I right?

My head is spinning from all the Woo/Wu. Maybe American studios will get in on the woo action and make their own take...

Woo-girls: gone wild

Give the man certain restraints and an editor and he can do great things. Unbridled creative and financial freedom hasn't led to him making better games.

@nem spot on

@ShogunRok how is any of that social media buzz and negativity representative truth? It's the opposite of truth in this attention economy! No truth would get "burried" by leaving these attention seekers out of the loop. Just keeping proper reviewers and classic word of mouth by people who have no agenda would unmuddy the waters.

This site is no better however. Alone the title, that late reviews is a "red flag" is extremely misleading and sets a negative narrative, where the comment section can do the rest of the work.
Next article... Pick a random tweet how someone has experienced a crash, enough for Pushsquare to write an article how "users" have a problems and the games a buggy mess.

Nintendolife manages to write neutral articles for the most part, time extension actually do research and write quality articles, but pushsquare is on bloody tabloid level.

Default reaction set to outrage.

One of the only few exciting titles showed at the last Nintendo direct.

Really like the clean yet cinematic martial arts. I hope they keep it that way.

Personally think this is a good approach to performance. Having too much (mostly unnecessary) headroom just leads to lots of unoptimized games that either could just run because of the uneconomical setup, or still chug along despite the horsepower.
I'd rather see a mobile only, with a egpu powered dock, but if the software runs on both handheld and console while being reasonably priced is also ok.

C'mon! Can't tell me you're not even the slightest bit curious. But that feels on point with so many creatives who are "above" the art they make. At the same time, saying and doing are two different things.

Looks sorta fun, but without a story... dunno. The only mgs game that I'd play for gameplay merits alone would be peace walker and mgsV. As an entire package I love them all however.

If I could unlock playstation trophies by signing in to PSN on my switch 2 and playing a ghost of Tsushima port I'd be in heaven.

These days we are eating so unbelievably good as gamers. Too good perhaps, since many seemingly let their pleasure of of the hobby deeply depend off of what the current social media buzz around a game is. People ride and die on the opinions of others, it's crazy.
A shame, outlaws deserved better.

@AdamNovice taika waititi is supposedly directing a new dredd movie. Since he worked together with Urban on Ragnarok I hope he'll just keep him for the role as dredd.

Despite the gore, why does these seem like the most pg13 like rated r movie?

So many sequels, but none hold up to the original. The numbers Mason!

I always wanted to play 90s Adam Sandler in a fighting game.

This sounds great for a replay. The original cut however is masterful in toying with the players sympathy/antipathy. It'll be interesting to see how one feels towards the characters when told chronologically.

Love the inclusion of indie darlings like cp2077. The game could use the extra exposure.

@Hylian-Likely couldn't have said it better 😂

@Neither_scene agree, he frequently makes it a sport excusing harassment and parading negativity. Just got done with bashing mindseye.

Generally gamers are turning more and more into football hooligans, just that they at least have the balls not to hide behind online anonymity.

Japanese and overall Asian games is where it's at!
