I was surprised at the lack of Tokon news which is making me think that the game is targeting a summer release. Saros in March, Tokon around July, Wolverine in about November.
@Dan12836666 Not happening, also that would include Marvel Tokon and I don't want to live in that world thank you.
@Oram77 I don't think they will show it till it's close to release, no point trying to get people interested months out from launch. Might as well reveal it then say "beta next month." Let the game speak for itself rather then the marketing.
Realistic expectations: Wolverine reveal Saros release date Marvel Tokon new characters, one of them is Wolverine. RE9 Leon reveal Astro Bot expansion God of War 2D
I watched a video from Super Eye patch Wolf a few years ago about horror media based in liminal spaces, was pretty fascinating. Clearly this game takes us based on that sub genre.
@Stale-Bread These games haven't been released in any capacity since the PS3 days, some have never got rereleased at all. It's about preserving them for modern systems.
@Get2sammyb That would depend on their emulation, they only just got a PS1 one working and anything from that era onwards tends to be a lot more challenging both technically and legally.
I'm it's technical performance is compromised by been on so many systems at launch. Rebirth struggled to hold 60fps when they only had PS5 to develop for.
My favorite thing about the city of Sapporo is that there's an alley way where it's full of ramen restaurants. I saw a video about it once.. I never felt more hungry afterwards. Lol.
My pick for Kratos would be Graham McTavish. He looks great (you don't need a roidy magoo wrestler type) plus he's more importantly got the acting range for it.
This is astonishing that an indie game is causing multiple storefronts to go down. I knew Hollow Knight was quite popular but I never thought it was this popular.
So why didn't the Resident Evil games not struggle to sell them? I think it's more to do that Wilds wasn't seen as the step up from World that many were hoping for. Plus despite prioritising PC development, it's technical performance was woeful which would have put many off.
Tokyo game show is towards the end of the month and Sony usually have at least a SoP before that. This Bond SoP is very much fulfilling marketing obligations.
I loved Fear Effect back in the day and I was sad that it can never catch a break. The 3rd game Inferno was nearly done but got cancelled after Eidos pulled funding after Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness flopped. Then a indie studio made FE Sedna but wasn't good, then the remake Reinvented got cancelled too.
@LifeGirl The characters often flirted but it was pretty tame really. It was the marketing that caused the controversy because it laid into the lesbian male gaze angle heavily to the point that it was almost misrepresenting the game.

Here was me thinking that they were starting to slow down on updates.

Re: First Wolverine PS5 Gameplay Is Incredibly Gory, Set for Fall 2026
Was concerned that it was going to be too similar to Spider-Man but judging by this trailer that's not the case.
Re: New PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Confirmed, The Last of Us 2 on Friday
Can't believe Tekken 3 is coming back, I haven't played it in 20 years.
Re: Classic Cyberpunk RPG Deus Ex Is Being Remastered on PS5 in February 2026
I'm hoping it leads to a Human Revolution remaster in future.
Re: Wildly Promising GTA-Style Open World Scraps Character Gachas Completely
@get2sammyb It does look ambitious so it'll be interesting how both compare.
Re: Wildly Promising GTA-Style Open World Scraps Character Gachas Completely
When I saw the trailer last night, I thought NTE had changed its title. Will be interesting if both games don't cannibalize each other.
Re: Bungie's Much Criticised Shooter Marathon Will Skip PS5's New State of Play
@Oram77 I agree but I think the best thing for it is to just almost shadow drop it and hope the gameplay can carry it.

Re: State of Play September 2025 Predictions: Marvel's Wolverine, Resident Evil Requiem, God of War, and More
Realistic expectations:
Wolverine reveal
Saros release date
Marvel Tokon new characters, one of them is Wolverine.
RE9 Leon reveal
Astro Bot expansion
God of War 2D
Re: Random: Would You Trust Hideo Kojima with Your Credit Card Details?
It's better then those old WCW credit cards. I mean imagine pulling a half naked man out of your wallet.
Re: No Nudity and Less Gore in Censored Japanese Version of Dying Light: The Beast
@Oram77 Berserk's Eclipse comes straight to mind.
Re: Even More Xbox Price Increases Make PS5 Look Like a Good Deal
@nessisonett Still means that the PS5 is cheaper which was what the article is saying.
Re: Rumour: Everyone's Talking About Leon's Supposed Appearance in Resident Evil Requiem
I would have preferred Jill Valentine, she's long overdue to be a playable character in a new game.
Re: Sony's Still Not Doing Anything with Bloodborne, It's Claimed
@belmont The people that say "why Horizon and not Bloodborne" conveniently forget that Horizon is a much bigger franchise.
Re: Sony's Still Not Doing Anything with Bloodborne, It's Claimed
Sony can afford to wait as long as they want because it just creates demand.
Re: Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Tipped to Take Off on PS5 This November
@CielloArc It's just a plane with a PS5 in the background mate.
Re: Marvel Cosmic Invasion Reveals Another Pair of Playable Characters in Latest Gameplay Trailer
@PuppetMaster With franchises getting rebooted or reimagined so many times it becomes more of a case of picking your poison.
Re: Marvel Cosmic Invasion Reveals Another Pair of Playable Characters in Latest Gameplay Trailer
@PuppetMaster Well that's it, if you aren't aware of different people being Ghost Rider then it probably was confusing.
Re: Marvel Cosmic Invasion Reveals Another Pair of Playable Characters in Latest Gameplay Trailer
@PuppetMaster The Ghost Rider in Marvel Tokon is the Robbie Reyes version, I believe he uses a car instead of a bike.
Re: Instead of a Splinter Cell Game, What About a Netflix Anime?
I could have sworn that a Splinter Cell remake was announced years ago.
Re: Creepy Viral Hit POOLS Takes the Plunge on PS5 in November, Playable Demo Out Now
I watched a video from Super Eye patch Wolf a few years ago about horror media based in liminal spaces, was pretty fascinating. Clearly this game takes us based on that sub genre.
Re: Nerfed PS5 Console Silently Releases with Less Storage Space
I don't think it's too bad if it makes PS5s more affordable. And options to expand storage should be much cheaper then it was a few years ago.
Re: Rumoured PS5 Showcase Seems Set for Next Week
Tbh I don't care whether it's a State of Play or Showcase as long as good content is shown.
Re: September 2025's PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Available to Download Now
Is that all the Legacy of Kain games available on PlayStation now?
Re: GOTY Frontrunner Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 Just Keeps Selling, Cracks 4.4 Million Copies
I've just started Act 3 and the hype around it is real.

Re: What PS5 Games Have the Best Graphics?
@SMJ I meant more in terms of fidelity, cos sometimes we judge the art style and graphics as the same thing.
Re: What PS5 Games Have the Best Graphics?
In terms of actual graphics, it's easily Horizon Forbidden West and Death Stranding 2.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy's Conclusion Will Not Be PS5 Exclusive
I'm it's technical performance is compromised by been on so many systems at launch. Rebirth struggled to hold 60fps when they only had PS5 to develop for.
Re: Dragon Quest 7 Returns in Reimagined Form, Out for PS5 in February 2026
Radac on Twitter compared the graphics to Lazy Town and now I can't unsee it.
Re: Add Sapporo Beer's Iconic Logo to Atsu's Arsenal in Ghost of Yotei
My favorite thing about the city of Sapporo is that there's an alley way where it's full of ramen restaurants. I saw a video about it once.. I never felt more hungry afterwards. Lol.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy a PS1 at Launch?
Where is the "No I got it for Christmas" option? 😉
Re: Sucker Punch Thinks Only 10% of Studio Would Be Hyped to Make Sly Cooper
People need to accept that studios want to move on. Sly 3 pretty much ended things where a 4th game was a bit redundant.
Re: SEGA to Demo Four Mysterious Titles at Tokyo Game Show This Month
Maybe Ristar 2: Ri-sing 😉
Re: Amazon's God of War TV Adaptation to Start Filming in Six Months
@PSX1994 Except he can't act.
Re: Amazon's God of War TV Adaptation to Start Filming in Six Months
My pick for Kratos would be Graham McTavish. He looks great (you don't need a roidy magoo wrestler type) plus he's more importantly got the acting range for it.

@KeAfan7 @Dragoon1994 Gulp This is why I should read before pressing reply.
Re: 'Things Are Progressing Really Smoothly': Nomura Shares Rare Update on Final Fantasy 7 Remake, Kingdom Hearts 4
I expect part 3 to come out early 2027.
Re: Poll: Vote for Your PS5 Game of the Month (August 2025)
Sword of the sea for me. Such a beautiful game that feels so good to play.
Re: Hollow Knight: Silksong Release Crashes Storefronts, Not on PS Store at Launch
This is astonishing that an indie game is causing multiple storefronts to go down. I knew Hollow Knight was quite popular but I never thought it was this popular.
Re: Free-to-Play Smash Hit Marvel Rivals Is Confirmed for PS4 in Season 4 Trailer
@beltmenot Probably not enough of a player base to make it worth it.

Jeez Angela's design.
Re: Game of Thrones Star Announced as Lara Croft for Amazon's Tomb Raider TV Show
She's a pretty good choice imo.
Re: Check Your Inbox! Beta Codes for PS5's Promising Superhero Fighter Are Being Sent Out
I bet Maximilian Dood gets a code.
Re: PS5's High Price Becoming a Serious Headache for Publishers
So why didn't the Resident Evil games not struggle to sell them? I think it's more to do that Wilds wasn't seen as the step up from World that many were hoping for. Plus despite prioritising PC development, it's technical performance was woeful which would have put many off.
Re: State of Play Confirmed for 3rd September, Deep Dive on 007 First Light
Are people stupid? It's perfectly possible to have two SoPs in the month.
@Dan12836666 They just had one for Ghost of Yotei for goodness sake.
Re: State of Play Confirmed for 3rd September, Deep Dive on 007 First Light
Tokyo game show is towards the end of the month and Sony usually have at least a SoP before that. This Bond SoP is very much fulfilling marketing obligations.
Re: Gears of War Reckons It's Ended the Console War as Reloaded Tops 1 Million Players
Twitter suggests otherwise lol
Re: Cult Classic PS1 Adventure Fear Effect Is Suddenly Available on PS5, PS4
I loved Fear Effect back in the day and I was sad that it can never catch a break. The 3rd game Inferno was nearly done but got cancelled after Eidos pulled funding after Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness flopped.
