Elden Ring and a bit of Genshin.

Genuinely good games but hey, all the cool kids are ***** on Sony these days so...

Everything I've seen from SE over the last few years re-enforces my belief that the senior leadership has no idea what's it's doing.

Lots of speculation Ubisoft is about to be sold or will put themselves up for sale very soon

Elden Ring and Genshin

I love oddworld but only managed a few hours on Soulstorm. Too many glitches, janky controls and an ill advised crafting system. I had to restart a level three times because of assets not loading correctly and Abe getting trapped.

Nothing, got the builders in and the PS5 has had to be packed up for a few days. Might go outside if I get desperate

BL3 proved they had run out of ideas so I don't have much hope for this. Even if the series was still flying high I'm not sure I'd pick it up, Tiny Tina is easily the worst character in the series.

It needs crossplay to be able to just about scrape together a 4 man team

How have codemasters not sorted the music out yet?! It was so poorly implemented in Dirt 5 I'd genuinely thought the game was bugging out.

It's not great. It looks good but its about as generic a cyberpunk world you can get. The plot and characters could be torn from a cyberpunk-101 writing manual. Gameplay gets boring very fast with endless trash mobs and more padding than fat-suit, especially in the second half. I wanted to love this game as I love both Ruiner and Diablo but this was straight up generic tier trash.

Looks good. I won't be buying it but I'm glad the people who will be seemed stoked.

Cyberpunk 2077, going on holiday so HFW will have to wait until I get back. I don't want to be spending the whole trip thinking about it after playing the opening few hours!

The Eden project is lighting their domes to look like Aloy's glider they've announced on twitter

FFVII remake, Genshin and Back 4 Blood

I love Disgaea but general consensus is that it is the worst mainline game. I'll probably pick it up when it's on sale.

It looked interesting but they just couldn't decide what they wanted it to be. There's a Mass Effect shaped hole to fill but no devs seemingly want to step into it.

@jgrangervikings1 wasteland 2 & 3 and Torment: Tides of numenera are strong contenders

Just finished it. I loved it but won't return for a while. The load times weren't game killing but definitely noticeable on the ps5, but it's the same with all Unity games.

Got covid which sucks but it means I've been able to tackle the backlog a bit. FFVIIR PS5 is on the menu at the minute

Is this the same interview UK Edge mag last month? It's sounds pretty much identical.

Disco Elysium still

Microsoft's product this gen is gamepass, the series x/s exist to showcase it. If they openly stated they want to bring it to Playstation they'll have backed Sony into a corner, plenty of PS gamers would be furious if they turned it down. Once they've hooked most of the market you can guarantee all the ridiculous deals they are always offering on the price of subscription will vanish.

The specialists break what battlefield was about. Everyone working in a fireteam had a defined role and was easily identifiable by how they looked. Now no one is really sure who does what and solo 'hero' play is the default. It also feels like the trailer with all the crazy stuff happening is only achievable by only the highest ability players, everyone else just exists for them to rack up their kills and make them look fantastic on their streams

At what point do antitrust laws kick in?

Disco Elysium and Back 4 blood

Gonna start disco elysium

DA:I was a good, not great, 30 hour game stretched out over 90 hours. I have little hope for any bioware game, EA gutted it.

It was painfully generic though. It did nothing bad but you'd be hard pressed to differentiate it from the millions of zombie titles out there.

Spiderman remastered and genshin

The fact Genshin isn't on this list is a crime. The Inazuma soundtrack was near perfect.

This is much more like it. Looks like they'll hang the story on Uncharted 4's bones. Still terribly cast though.

@michaelf persona 5 is one of the best games of last gen, the original edition is free as part of the ps5 collection

No man sky, gotta get the Normandy!

Genshin and finishing off Kingdoms of Alamur, might even have a few rounds of fall guys

Genshin impact and moonlighter

If you consider the GTA trilogy "cult classics" maybe you shouldn't be the editor of a videogame website

I bought it on release and loved it. It wasn't perfect, the main plot is dire and, outside of memes, it's characters are pretty forgettable but few games match it's sense of discovery. I played the ps4 re-release and wasn't as keen, its just not aged particularly well, especially when held up against The Witcher 3.

They announced games that didn't exist, almost as if they needed to draw attention away from something...

It reminds me of Nightmare creatures, I loved that game back in the day

@hurblyburbly hopefully so! I'm in England as well, prime time games are a killer.

Genshin impact as always!

I'm completely burned out on Marvel.

It wasn't a beta or demo though, it was an unfinished game they had no choice but to release. Once FIFA came out they were never going to make up ground from behind. They had two years and screwed up. Unlike cyberpunk they have a direct competitor, patch it all you want the players won't be back this season.

https://www.rockstargames.com/GTATrilogy link for the video, it's not on the preorder page for some reason

Video is up, it's better than I was expecting but I still have several doubts

GTAV's controls just about get the job done but they aren't exactly the gold standard. With the amount of money Rockstar throws at their games I don't understand why they keep using the same janky control scheme.

Something with more meat on it than dirt 5! Ditch the tacky gymkhana modes and focus on making the sp campaign more than padding. The biggest issue I have with dirt is how faceless each track and car is, they need to learn how to make each race and actual 'event' and each car more than c-s stats. I enjoyed d5 but it feels like a game from 10 years ago and takes absolutely no risks with the genre.

Genshin and finishing the banner saga trilogy, why did I sleep on this game for so long?!
