@SMJ For all the complaints about their games, Ubisoft are pretty great at supporting their titles for a long time. 60fps and graphics updates for many Assassin's Creed's and other titles. This is to be applauded, even if their game design is, to many including me, very tired.
@RoomWithaMoose With Switch 2 it's been proven that the cartridges aren't as fast as the onboard storage, so there is good reason to have the game on the system, not the cartridge. Though they could have done a PS3 style, install from disc and still had it on the cartridge.
@RawnDawn @Cerny The discs are still useful as they can be resold, and pricing is more set by the market, especially second hand, not the companies.
@nessisonett Ha! I had no idea they had Nicole Nicole Scherzinger butcher the song in the 2010 Goldeneye in the remake! I was about to say it was Tina Turner, but just leaned something. Yet another reason to avoid that remake.
@playstation1995 Great games my dude! The whole Dishonored series is probably the games I go back to and play the most, sometimes just one level or set piece, so replayable and fun.
@Bentleyma You've got some great story to come (as well as some nonsense). Enjoy.
Who are you playing as?
I still mostly play as Carlotta, but mainlined Jiyan for a long while, and am now experimenting with Cartethiya, Augusta and Galbrena. Whoever feels most fun to play really.
@Oram77 I'm a fan of The Chinese Room, but this is so far from their lane... and scope of game... it always seemed like a huge ask, and a poor fit. A shame, as I would have liked to have seen them pull it off.
Sadly this always felt like the most likely outcome. I was rooting for them to pull it off - we want good games after all - but the Chinese Room always felt like an odd fit for this project.
@1970sGamer I USED to mind that, but now I just see it as doing my bit to support the devs. But this is probably gaslighting myself after the 50th time this happened. lol.
For a handheld it's pretty impressive imo. When viewed on a 7" screen this will look great... not so much blown up on my 34" monitor.
It's currently the best handheld PC... but it costs $1000 USD, that's too much for most. It also doesn't play most Xbox games, other that those with Xbox / PC compatibility, a small subset only.
Don't get Sucker Punch working on them give it to Nixxies, or xDev, FireSprite, Valkyrie or one of their other support teams.
For all Sony's acquisitions I'm amazed they haven't created, or bought, a studio who can consistently update their old games. Considering the return on remasters it seems like a massive opportunity wasted.
@Oram77 I agree Sony own the IP, not doubting that, only suggesting that Sony MAY be waiting for some sort of approval from FromSoft / Miyazaki. But the truth is we don't know.
What we do know is Sony is well aware of the clamour for the Bloodborne remake / remaster. I would posit that if it was SOLELY up to them why haven't they greenlit it? Putting one of their port / remaster or support studios like Nixxies, xDev, Valkyrie or Firesprite on it.
Bluepoint it more complicated as they reportedly want more autonomy, they would have to WANT to do it.
Miyazaki-san really really loved Bloodborne, what he created. So I think he is interested but he's so successful and so busy so he cannot do it himself and he doesn't want anyone else to touch it. So that's my theory and the PlayStation team respects his wish.
Miyazaki said he is not "at liberty to speak to it" since Sony owns the IP, but that doesn’t necessarily mean he doesn’t have a say or weight.
@Northern_munkey @johncalmc It was reportedly Bluepoint themselves that didn’t want to work on remasters forever and Sony gave them license to create a new game. That game was the cancelled God of War online title (after they had collaborated on Ragnarok). I think this is less about Sony than people think.
Personally I’d love to see them do Bloodborne but it seems they don’t want to, or perhaps it’s FromSoft blocking it. I suspect Sony would want that too, but they typically don’t tell studios what to make, only green light ideas they propose.
@ItsAlwaysSunnyyy Starts off like it's a kids show but ends up having deeper lessons about morality and the world than many adult dramas, yet keeps it pretty light in doing so. Great characters, with strong arcs, an intriguing world and magic system. I think it can be for children but like @Dragonaged said it's for adults too.
FYI It's the 7th highest rated English speaking TV show on imdb ever behind Breaking Bad, Planet Earth 1&2, Band of Brothers, Chernobyl and The Wire. Well deserved imho, it sticks with you. (9.3 from 419k)
@dark_knightmare2 @get2sammyb It's a slow burn imo. It starts out a bit like an average kids animation but grows to SO much more. The heart in this show is off the charts.
@Dogbreath Digital Foundry (or at least John’s) reasoning seemed more based on “a few years” being 3 or 4 (2028-2029)… when it could also be 2 (2027). It was Oliver that pointed out that other leaks seemed to suggest 2027. My money’s still on that.
@Lowdefal if it’s RT you wan then PS6 couldn’t come sooner. PS5 can in some limited way use RT in AAA games but to really push it, especially path tracing, then we need faster hardware.
Not saying I want that to happen fast, but PS5 just isn’t quite beefy enough to handle high end path tracing at any reasonable fidelity
Hopefully they don't give m/any USEFUL in-game resources like primo-gems in this mode. Then I can completely ignore it like the TCG mode or Serenitea pot farm building. Genshin, and gacha games in general, already take too long... no need to drag it out further. (Just pulled Flins last night now to save for Varka... till someone else becomes a must pull)
@Bentleyma The most recent WuWa story quest was Avengers Endgame levels of absolute cinema! Wonderful fan service and beautifully wrapping up the major arc. Be warned if not finished it has more endings than Return of the King I thought I would be done by midnight and ended up playing till 3am.
@Veritas7Ax Not taking offence to anything, perhaps you misunderstood my post, I just don't understand it when people say this generation has been weak, I really don't, I look at the wealth of games and think of all the great ones i've played and don't get it.
To be clear i'm not trying to convince anyone to feel differently, was just trying to understand your viewpoint, so thank you for clarifying.
I can perhaps understand being disappointed in the number of PS5 exclusives... but personally I just don't base my enjoyment of a console, or generation, based on whether others get to play a game or not. Whether a game is an exclusive or made by a first party studio; whether it's AAA or indie isn't really important to me. Only playing great games is important and there have been plenty, that makes it a strong generation in my eyes.
But I respect that you feel differently and I sincerely hope the back half of the generation (including the inevitable cross gen period of PS5 games also on PS6) is more to your liking. However I suspect if you are specifically looking for 'PS5 exclusives' as your milestone for a good gen you may be setting yourself up for disappointment, the era of lots of exclusives is over... and good thing too, more people playing great games is a good thing imo.
@Veritas7Ax I keep seeing people say things like this, and while you are of course entitled to your own views, I just don't understand it. This gen has had some of the greatest games ever made across AAA, AA and Indie from Elden Ring to Baldur's Gate 3, Silksong to Expedition 33, Blue Prince to Astro Bot, Metaphor to God of War: Ragnarok. I have no shortage of great games I can list, so many release I can't keep up, I just don't understand what people think is missing.
Can you explain?
@CielloArc Can't speak for everybody else, but for me it's not digital OR physical, I buy a mix of both. But it's a shame only digitally bought games can be reviewed this way, when it's clear to see if you have played a game through other means. Not the end of the world though either.
@somnambulance Glad you've found something that works for you dude.
Not completing everything makes sense. I am getting better at that, but I still have a drive to want to finished what I started. While I'm not longer an achievement completionist, I do still sometimes 100% games if I am enjoying them, or at least the parts I like. Like Silksong - everything but the speed-runs and 1 death mode finished. That definitely doesn't help the backlog, nor does playing on all platforms and liking too many genres!
@Titntin Enjoy the Switch 2. I like mine, even if I haven't played it much. But like the first Swtich it's mostly just for exclusives. I usually play on a big TV on PS5 Pro.
@somnambulance I just can't fathom how anyone can have completed their backlog. lol. I've got hundreds of games I haven't played and hundreds more I didn't buy but would like to play. They could stop making games for the next decade and I might still not catch up.
While it's true Game Pass makes this an even more impossible challenge I also love the sheer variety of games I get to try, it makes my gaming life wider and richer, as well as allowing my to try - risk free - many games I never would have bought. But it does make the backlog just get longer every month.
I've enjoyed all Giant Squid's games, as long as they get to keep making the games they want to I don't care how it's done, whether it's an acquisition, some strategic agreement, or something else.
It's clear they are on a knife edge financially, Matt Nava has been pretty clear about how a few people at Sony saved the game - and inferred it was more than that - so it would be great for them to have some financial comfort.
This isn't really new news. The Software Tie Ratio (i.e. the number of games sold per console) has ALWAYS been pretty low to our eyes as enthusiasts at between 5-15 games per console with few exceptions. This hasn't really changed.
What is muddying the waters is things like F2P games, subscriptions and other business models that no longer count as a sale - that metric often isn't as relevant as it once was - yet revenue and engagement are both up.
@SeaDaVie Was looking for a voice of reason and I found one... at least partly! Destiny 2 is still HUGE in terms of revenue. (Almost certainly a smaller dedicated fanbase paying more on average)
But it's also clear they aren't anywhere near hitting targets and the player base is diminishing quite rapidly. There's a balance to be had between the doom posters and your post. Not everything is rosy either and there's plenty Bungie need to improve.
Personally i'm amazed that there is no way for new players to be properly introduced to the series with all the vaulting of content you can't experience 'Destiny 2' from the start. If all you are relying on is a constantly falling player base, due to churn, and not adding new players, then your numbers are only ever going to go one way.
@Jammer Jeff is absolutely a legend, but Molyneux's game CV is hard to top. Populous, Syndicate, Fable, Dungeon Keeper, Black & White, Theme Park and more. It's a shame he's gone off the boil the last 15 years and mostly ruined his legacy. I can see why many don't give him much credit anymore, but many of us still remember the visionary he undoubtedly was.
Can we all just celebrate what a great month that is. 6 months worth of gaming in one month! (And some people still suggest there are no good games. lol)
Difficulty is very individual, but in the end Silksong was balanced just about perfectly for my tastes - I could best every boss, with a little perseverance - and it’s a 10/10 masterpiece in every other way.
I haven’t played many on the list yet though, and I suspect that’s the same for most players, making these lists more of a popularity contest.

Re: Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora's Third-Person Update Practically Makes It a New PS5 Game
@SMJ For all the complaints about their games, Ubisoft are pretty great at supporting their titles for a long time. 60fps and graphics updates for many Assassin's Creed's and other titles. This is to be applauded, even if their game design is, to many including me, very tired.
