I have a great time with it. Really glad they released it.
The UI thing is annoying yeah. Jot as much as on Ridge Racer 2 though. And after the remapping and a bit of time, the controls are in my muscle memory now and I am fine with them.
I know people are sick of hearing this. But the Pro needs to look completely different. Hardcore gamers might not care. But casual people who don't really care too much about this stuff are just turned of how this ***** thing looks. In my surrounding many people said "I just keep the PS4 and sit the PS5 out". Mainly because they don't want that ugly thing in their home. And it also doesn't help that almost everything is playable on the PS4 as well. The casual people need to be excited about a new slick item. But they aren't with that white plastic bin.
I hope Bandai-Namco goes back to Ridge Racer 2 (PSP) and Ridge Racer Type 4 (PS1) and adds trophies as well. (And update the washed out icon on 2 while they are at it)
But I am also happy if they add trophies to Ridge Racer V (PS2), should it drop at some point. (Which it probably will, based on the other releases)
I am still mad as hell that Rocket Racing looks like a stand-alone release in the store. But if you start the download, you suddenly have freaking Fortnite in your library forever.
@Dudeitsme yeah. I was confused why Outrun is not part of their remake lineup. I would be all over that. (And no, Horizon Chase 2 is not filling the void)
@Anti-Matter
I think you are using a few to extreme words to make me take this completely serious. But having a cute Bloodborne version in that game make kids actually want to know about the game Bloodborne. You have a point there.
I stayed up late as a kid to secretly watch Verhoevens RoboCop on TV, because I knew the character from the cartoon back then.
Wow they did a fantastic job by making the motion comic in that style. I wish the new animations where more vintage as well, but they are still fitting.

Re: Aim Your Blaster with the PS5 Controller's Gyro in Star Wars Outlaws

I have a great time with it. Really glad they released it.

Man that music in the trailer is a vibe
Re: Star Wars Outlaws Boasts Ubisoft's Biggest Ever Marketing Budget, Strong Launch Expected
I hate all your peoples negativity here.
But I also hate that you are probably right.
Re: Nobody Wants to Die (PS5) - Film Noir Meets Cyberpunk in This Stylish Detective Thriller
Nice. I was on the fence. Now I am getting it.
Re: Overwatch 2's Newest Support Hero, Juno, Will Be Playable This Weekend
I loved OW1 so much. But somehow I just don't feel OW2. Even though I tried multiple times.
Re: Mini Review: Asphalt Legends Unite (PS5) - Over-the-Top Arcade Racer Serves Up Some Free Fun

@ApostateMage Nah, me too. Even though that videos doesn't help with that.
Re: Random: Jocks Met by 'Lorem Ipsum' Error in EA Sports College Football 25
Well the devs dodged a bullet. I could very well see that a programming placeholder would be "***** Tom Brady" or something.
Re: Development Teams 'Saddened' by Demoralising Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2 Leak
Why are people doing this? I can see myself doing that as a child or early teen. But now I just want a finished game.
Re: Iconic PSP Tactics RPG Jeanne d'Arc Has a Platinum on PS5, PS4
Played it for 2 hours so far. Amazing game. Was not expecting to get this addicted.

I hope we see a Ridge Racer bot at some point in the franchise.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Zenless Zone Zero?
@Judal27 "Im actually kinda sad some of them are stuck in this game"
Spot on! The design of the whole thing (graphics, menus, characters, world, animations) is so much up my alley that I almost can't handle it.
Imagine SEGA would do the new Jet Set Radio like this …..

Re: Zenless Zone Zero (PS5) - Characterful Character Action Makes for Another Gacha Great
I was surprised how absolutely awesome the design and vibe is. It reminds me so much of FLCL and JSRF.

Re: CDPR Says Boston-Based Dev Studio Will Make Cyberpunk 2077 Sequel More Authentically American
What a ridiculous criticism. America is a meme for a reason by now.
Re: NASCAR Speeds into Fortnite with Official Rocket Racing Circuit
I am still mad as hell that Rocket Racing looks like a stand-alone release in the store. But if you start the download, you suddenly have freaking Fortnite in your library forever.
Re: Transformers: Galactic Trials Combines Racing and Rogue-Lite Action on PS5, PS4 This October
I like the idea. But the non-driving parts of the trailer look really weird.
Re: SEGA's New Crazy Taxi Game Is Open World and Multiplayer
@Dudeitsme yeah. I was confused why Outrun is not part of their remake lineup. I would be all over that. (And no, Horizon Chase 2 is not filling the void)
Re: George R.R. Martin Appears to Tease Elden Ring Adaptation for Film, TV
That's going to be full arthouse if they stick to the material.
Re: Net Yourself a Shoal of Free Dave the Diver PSN Avatars on PS5, PS4

Re: The First Descendant Gets Gameplay, PS5 Graphical Options Ahead of Upcoming Launch

I was not really in the loop (obviously) and thought this is a single player game.
Re: Beloved PS2 Action Shooter Star Wars: Bounty Hunter Is Being Remastered on PS5, PS4
@MegaManX-7 true though
Re: Beloved PS2 Action Shooter Star Wars: Bounty Hunter Is Being Remastered on PS5, PS4
Aspyr releases feel always very sloppy to me. So I will probably pass on this.

Re: Fortnite's New Mode, Reload, is Getting Back to Basics on PS5, PS4
I just want Rocket Racing as a stand-alone release without having to access it trough Fortnite.
Re: Retro Rugrats Revival Features a Full 4K Makeover on PS5, PS4
I think it's dope that LRG even releases a working NES version.
Re: Personalise Your PS5, PS4 Profile with Free Astro Bot Avatars
@Anti-Matter
I think you are using a few to extreme words to make me take this completely serious. But having a cute Bloodborne version in that game make kids actually want to know about the game Bloodborne. You have a point there.
I stayed up late as a kid to secretly watch Verhoevens RoboCop on TV, because I knew the character from the cartoon back then.
(Best movie ever though)
Re: The Countdown Is on for Iconic 90s Horror Clock Tower's Western Release
Wow they did a fantastic job by making the motion comic in that style. I wish the new animations where more vintage as well, but they are still fitting.
