I wish The Legend of Dragoon had become a full franchise. As it is, Legend of Dragoon is still good (if not quite as good as it's contemporaries), and it would benefit from a full, FF7 style remake.
I honestly thought it was weird when Yakuza: Like a Dragon came with an English dub. It feels so weird to hear them speaking English. If the series were to bend to a western audience, it would lose all of its identity and just die off. Unrelated, I really hope they are prepping a remake of Yakuza Kenzan.
I will say that I wouldn't trust Konami with a new Metal Gear (I still believe that Physint is actually MGS 6). So, I'd rather they keep remaking the older games. Or just let me play MGS4 on PS5.
If there is gonna be a season 4, let it be set after Part II's story. Season 3 should wrap up Part II. Right now, I'm fearful that season 3 will be outright cancelled and Kaitlyn Dever won't get her chance to shine as Abby.
Let it go. It's a 7 year old game that has long since reached market saturation on Playstation and PC. More money for Insomniac and Sony mean more money for Spider-Man 3. Let it go to Switch 2, while we're at it. But let's be serious, we know the game won't sell on Xbox and won't be played if it's not on Game Pass. (see Final Fantasy XVI)
It was a good show, even if not everything was for me (Marvel Tokon). 007 First Light stole the show in my opinion and this was definitely one of Sony's better States of Play.
Sony needs to finally step in and tear Bungie to the ground. Get rid of the toxic leadership, and get the clearly very talented devs the support they deserve. Cancel Marathon, get Destiny 3 in the pipeline and maybe actually have Bungie create a game with a single player campaign for the first time in 15 years and right the ship.
@mariomaster96 Sony owns the Stellar Blade IP, so it's highly unlikely the game will be available on anything other than PS5/6 and PC. I feel like Sony will also acquire Shift Up at some point.
So, this is like the third or fourth re-release, remaster, remake, whatever you what to call it for this game. That means it's going to get meme'd and made fun of just like The Last of Us, right?
Ok, I know I'm in the minority of people who mostly don't have an issue with Sony's shows and am usually satisfied enough with what I see, but even I have to ask, does anyone want this? Is there anyone clamoring for a Sony exclusive deep dive into Borderlands 4 when Death Stranding 2 is right around the corner?
Wow, this game looks gorgeous. Tsushima has arguably the most gorgeous, realistic art style of any game on PS4 and Yotei looks to continue that on PS5. Can't wait to play this one.
I will picking this up. I played on PC and the story is great. The atmosphere feels very much like classic Indy (MachineGames were the perfect choice for Indiana Jones). I do agree with the assessment of the gameplay. This game should be third person, not first person. That is the sole reason I still rank it lower than Uncharted and Tomb Raider. As a third person action game, I would have placed this right next to Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and Astro Bot in last year's GOTY convo.
Shadows' placement feels about right. It's good, but doesn't reach the heights of the series' best like AC4 or Odyssey. Ubisoft really needs to cut down on the bloat and fix the unbalanced combat. I swear, the bosses are insanely easy, but I will routinely be rushed and killed by a group of normal enemies.
I think the problem is that the game was revealed before it was even really in active development. On top of that, the Insomniac hack really screwed things up. That said, we are approaching 4 years so it would seem that it's getting close to being ready to show off.
This seems like a useless fight to have and I doubt Sony would do this. They don't port their games to PC until years later and it's not like this would be PS making games for Xbox. They would still be making money by selling the software.
I honestly don't understand why this game even exists. Why did Sony waste money on remastering Until Dawn when Resistance, Infamous, Killzone, MGS4, and GTA IV are all still stuck on PS3?
@PuppetMaster It's true and very dumb. I love FFXVI quite a bit. Same with FFVII Rebirth and FFXIV. I hate toxic fanbases. They are predisposed to hate everything. *see Star Wars "fans"
Ok, I've gotta say it. I love Indiana Jones. I love Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. And I love Machine Games. But Game of the Year contender? No, not even close. Indy is great, but is still a rung below Uncharted and Rise of the Tomb Raider.
I'll pick up 5 at some point. I played the heck out of Forza Horizon 4 on Xbox One. It was one of Xbox's trump cards against Playstation as Sony never really had an arcade racer to compete. I'd love for Polyphony to release an arcadey version of Gran Turismo.

Re: Marathon's Stolen Art Debacle Has Finally Been Resolved
This game needs to be cancelled. It has courted nothing, but controversy and is likely DOA anyway.
Re: 007 First Light Brings James Bond to PS5 on 27th March
Looks incredible, can't wait for March.
Re: Konami Wants to 'Consider Lots of Other Games' for Remake Treatment if MGS Delta Succeeds

Re: Resident Evil 2, 3 PS1 Ports Disappoint with No Trophy Support on PS5, PS4
It sucks, but it's not surprising. Capcom didn't add trophies to RE1 or Dino Crisis either.
Re: Hideo Kojima Alone Is Currently Working on PlayStation Exclusive Physint
So we won't be seeing this one until at least 2029 or 2030.

@ButterySmooth30FPS That's the one I want along with Sunset Overdrive.

Re: Astro Bot Has Added Its Most Wanted Cameo in Huge PS5 Update
Glad that I didn't have this spoiled for me and saw Cloud when completing the level. Also, Megamix Mastery is something else....
Re: Reaction: Helldivers 2 on Xbox Signals Another Unexpected But Not Overly Surprising Shift in Strategy from Sony
The most surprising part about this is that this isn't the result of a timed exclusivity expiring. Sony are directly porting it themselves.
Re: Mass Xbox Layoffs Begin, Everwild and Perfect Dark Both Cancelled
This has been a bloodbath. Phil Spencer's absurdly tone-deaf memo makes it even worse.

Blah, blah, blah, this is a nothing burger.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for July 2025 Announced
A good month, even if I'm not really interested in any of the games. It's a little strange that Xbox owned games like Diablo IV keep getting added.
Re: MindsEye Studio Confirms Its Layoff Process Has Started
This is not surprising, unfortunately.
Re: Talking Point: Do Early Access Editions Go Too Far for Story Games Like Death Stranding 2?
I'm not paying extra to play a game 2 days early.

Good news. I skipped BF 2042 due to no campaign.

Deus Ex is a great addition. I'll try out FBC Firebreak too because, well Remedy.
Re: Reaction: Sony Finally Understands the Assignment with One of the Best State of Plays of the PS5 Era
It was a good show, even if not everything was for me (Marvel Tokon). 007 First Light stole the show in my opinion and this was definitely one of Sony's better States of Play.
Re: James Bond, Silent Hill Among the Most Viewed Trailers at State of Play
I've watched the 007 First Light trailer like 10 times already. I can't get enough of it.

I've played FH4 and loved it. Haven't played 5, but may pick it up eventually.

@Cerny Indiana Jones actually made decent use of the Dual sense features.
Re: Ghost of Yotei Gets PS5 Release Date, Trailer, Pre-Order Details
Wow, this game looks gorgeous. Tsushima has arguably the most gorgeous, realistic art style of any game on PS4 and Yotei looks to continue that on PS5. Can't wait to play this one.

Re: Indiana Jones and the Great Circle (PS5) - Globe-Trotting Adventure Just Got Even Better on PS5
Not gonna lie, Indiana Jones feels way better to play on PS5 than on PC.
