Ranger danger
Our big take from playing Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection is that this spin-off series has come an incredibly long way.

News 'This Should Be Illegal': PS5's Dynamic Pricing Roundly Criticised by Disgusted Sony Fans
"That is f***in' dirty"
There’s no two ways about it: Sony is testing dynamic pricing on the PS Store, and we’ve seen evidence of it ourselves. For those who aren’t aware, this works by adjusting the price of PS5 titles on a per user basis. So, a power user in one country may see a different discount to a casual player in another.
