@Mostik I also got my copy on Amazon but it only cost me £42.99, thanks to a £20 Amazon voucher I had. I ended up upgrading to the Digital Deluxe for an extra £10 though lol.
Still £52.99 for the Digital Deluxe Edition is pretty good. The fact that it's a shorter game means I'm far more likely to replay this in a year or two.
If I fire up GOG Galaxy on my PC, it says I currently own 1,950 games on my PC, across multiple PC storefronts. I don't have anywhere near that on any of my consoles. So yes, the bulk of my money and time is spent on PC. If a game is multiplatform, such as Like A Dragon Gaiden, I get it on PC, because it's cheaper for a start. This assumption that I prefer Xbox is just that, an assumption.
@QuietintheCorner Starfield, Forza Motorsport, Like a Dragon Gaiden, but yeah - no games. As a neutral (as I own all current gen consoles), this tribal crap is absolutely pathetic.
Looking forward to Spider-Man 2 coming in the post next week but some of you so called PS fans need to get a grip.
@Rmg0731 Not quite, a large player base for ABK exists on PC. Games like World of Warcraft and Starcraft don't even have a presence on consoles, yet both have huge player bases on PC.
@REALAIS Because FSR is an AMD software technology, that's why. It is AMD's version of DLSS, which is exclusive to NVIDIA. The PS5 was built using AMD hardware. There is literally no excuse for not using FSR in any PS5 game that can't hit 4k 60fps.
A PS5 Pro still won't run every game at 4k 60fps because the 4k 30fps problem is down to the game developers, hardware does nothing to change that. If a 3rd party developer doesn't include a 4k 60fps option in their game, it's going to run at 4k 30, no matter what PS5 you own.
@REALAIS 4k 30fps is down to the laziness of the developers and has nothing to do with the capabilities of the PS5. FSR 2.2 exists and would make ANY PS5 game run at 4k 60fps without a PS5 Pro, but most developers just can't be bothered to use it on consoles.
@Orpheus79V I seem to remember Ghost of Tsushima coming out just a few weeks later and then absolutely destroying TLOU Part 2's sales, so it's clearly nowhere near as popular as you're making out.
It's a bit disingenuous to call Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown "as something like The Crew", when The Crew was a direct response to Test Drive Unlimited 2.
@OrtadragoonX We first met Aloy as a baby, so you didn't know her sexual orientation straight away. They also didn't give any hints in the original game, I played that to death and she appeared non plused about any of the characters she met
You're connecting dots that simply don't exist in Horizon Zero Dawn.
@GodofCapcom Sony is not going to do that while there's money to be made. As much as they might value their user base's opinions, they value the almighty dollar even higher.
@sonicmeerkat 1 was infinity better than 4 because technically 4 is only Saints Row in name. It has nothing to do with the previous 3 games because it's nothing more than a superhero simulator where driving a car is entirely optional.
@Shad361 Yes I'm aware of that, I own the NWO Edition. But this is only an minor upgrade from last year's game so it's not an 8/10. It needed to do more to earn an 8. This is a 7/10 all day long and way overpriced.
@Neverwild As someone who games on all platforms (Playstation, Xbox, Nintendo and PC), I'm sorry to say this but that is absolute horse twaddle. Xbox is owned by a 3 trillion dollar company, they sold the original Xbox and the 360 at a loss so why would they decide to be a publisher all of a sudden? The window for that has closed, if it was going to happen at all it would have been during the disaster that was the Xbox One generation.
@themightyant The article states that's all Sony is prepared to spend until 2024. Sony is more than just Playstation so I don't see a single reason why they'd increase it just for that. As someone else said, some of that money will be allocated for Sony Pictures to spend, some will be for the Sony Bravia division.
@GamerStation257 Sega has a better relationship with Microsoft than Sony these days so doubt that acquisition is feasible, Square Enix would be more likely with their recent struggles.
@UltimateOtaku91 Again, the 5 billion isn't just for Playstation. Reading comprehension seems to be an issue on this website. So there isn't 5 billion for Playstation to go spending on an acquisition.
I would imagine some of that would be invested into things like the Sony Bravia tv division as they're competing with LG. Sony sells things other than Playstation consoles, a shock to some I know.
@mvhess I didn't say Fallout 4, I said Fallout, as in the series. So Fallout 76 would be the game being updated on PS5. Dishonoured doesn't need an update but it also wasn't pulled from the store either.
The Outer Worlds is no longer published by Take two, try reading what other people have been posting. Only the original version had Take Two as the publisher, this remaster has Microsoft as the publisher. You should be thankful that all of these titles get any support at all when they're owned by a direct competitor.
@Athrum Private Division only own the publisher rights to the original 2019 version of the game. Publisher rights for this remaster are owned by Microsoft.
@mvhess Not true, any game owned by Microsoft already on Playstation is still supported by them on PS5, including Minecraft, Elder Scrolls, FallOut, Dishonored and The Outer Worlds.
@Arnna You're a bit late to that conversation. Also if you look at how well this game is selling, most people don't like being told what they can and can't play.
@thefourfoldroot1 So pretty much your entire comment was about a different game? You know Push Square has no control over the Playstation Store right? So your entire comment is pointless.
As for me, I'm extremely excited to play Like A Dragon : Ishin! Not sure about using the Kiryu DLC, maybe post story I might use it.
Still not sure if I'm going to be playing it on console or Pc though.
@claytortot213 Correct, because the gpu is only one part of a PC VR setup. If you're using a 3090Ti that's paired with something like a Pixma 8k VR headset then no, PSVR2 can't compete with that. However for the price the PSVR2 is probably the best you can get.
@hulkie GTA Trilogy Defintive Edition is the reason why Rockstar didn't bother doing remasters of RDR2 and GTA 4. If the reception is luke warm for their most beloved games they didn't think it was worth the investment and moved everyone onto GTA 6.
@Slayer25c Nope, the FTCs recent track record is absymal. You can't just say you're going to block something, you have to show a court evidence of why the deal should not go through. Standing up in court and saying "this deal is bad for Sony' is not going to impress a judge. You need a lot more than that.

Re: Mid-Generation Upgrades Like PS5 Pro 'Aren't All That Meaningful', Says Take-Two CEO
@REALAIS Digital Foundry did a very good video on FSR running on PS5 in Cyberpunk 2077, I suggest you watch it.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GO90rUei8g#:~:text=and%20yet%20as%20always%20the,5%20series%20X%20and%20S.
Re: Mid-Generation Upgrades Like PS5 Pro 'Aren't All That Meaningful', Says Take-Two CEO
@REALAIS How is it simpler to create a more powerful console? That is anything BUT simple.
FSR on the other hand is relatively simple to improve, because it's software. Like I said before, educate yourself.
Re: Feature: Saints Row Expansion Pass Review - Is It Worth Buying?

Re: Mid-Generation Upgrades Like PS5 Pro 'Aren't All That Meaningful', Says Take-Two CEO
@REALAIS "Games on PS5 has to run smooth without cooking ps5 at same time"
That's literally why technology like DLSS and FSR exists. Educate yourself.

Re: WWE 2K23 (PS5) - 2K Sports' Wrestling Series Continues Its Steady Rise

Re: WWE 2K23 (PS5) - 2K Sports' Wrestling Series Continues Its Steady Rise
How does deserve an 8/10 after everything said in the review? It's a minor improvement over last year's game at best.
It should have been a 7/10 tops.
Re: UK Sales Charts: Hogwarts Legacy Immovable While Wo Long Falls 25 Places
