In a shockingly dismal year I just went for the game I gave the highest score to, and I wouldn't really call it a favourite it was just very good. Pacific Drive.
Absolutely Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown. Not much else on the list for me apart from Cat Quest.
I did notice that Monster Jam Showdown - Off-Road was missing though, that should be a lot of fun.
I didn't realise it was a gacha, kinda put off now. Unless all the outfits are obtainable through just playing?
If it's got a platinum I'll probably give it a whirl as it still does look enticing.
I'll play it because it's Lego but as much as Horizon is boring it could mean other PlayStation crossovers are in the works. Lego Uncharted? Lego Last of Us? Lego Ratchet & Clank?
I will definitely get this as I enjoyed the world of the first one but I can guarantee I will have to have a walkthrough. I followed one for the first game and was still utterly confused and mystified all the way through.
A little gutted but as long as Division 3 is still going I am happy enough.
It still puzzles me why they'd throw away a decent established IP for this new garbage that clearly nobody is going to play.
I keep seeing this in other business fields but I come to the same piece of advice: if any bigger company offers to invest or buy your smaller company for the love of god say no.
If they thought this was wildly popular, imagine if they crammed a PS4 inside it.
In the meantime I still keep trying to convince myself to buy a Portal.

Flying through Gravity Rush 2 to 100% it and then going to get stuck into The First Descendant.

Re: Capcom Ends New Content Support for Exoprimal
I really enjoyed it, shame they didn't add more trophies to keep me coming back.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing The First Descendant?
Just waiting to see if they fix some of the bugged trophies before I dive in.
Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard's In-Depth Difficulty Settings Even Have a No Death Option
@AdamNovice I had to follow a walkthrough for the platinum too, everything was so unfathomable to the point of annoyance.
Re: Almost 2,000 Awesome PS5, PS4 Games Discounted on PS Store
Why not every month they just sent us all a coupon?
Re: Talking Point: What's Your Most Anticipated PS5 Game for the Second Half of 2024?
Absolutely Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown. Not much else on the list for me apart from Cat Quest.
I did notice that Monster Jam Showdown - Off-Road was missing though, that should be a lot of fun.
Re: Concord PS5, PC Beta Test Dates Revealed, Pre-Orders Gain Early Access
I'm probably alone in this but who has four friends?!
Re: Next Gran Turismo 7 PS5, PS4 Update Could Be a Big One
More real world tracks.
Just look back at the amount that Project CARS had. They've been laser-scanned already, just a few licences and good to go.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for July 2024 Announced
Hmm, shall I attempt my first NHL game since NHL '97?
I wonder if it's changed much.

I'm definitely in the mood now.

Perhaps someone found a way to "hack" getting points?

Re: Preview: Marvel Rivals Is Overwatch with Superheroes, But Can It Live Up to Either?
This really hits home how the games industry is a very large tanker that takes years to steer.

Fantastic, hopefully more trophies too.
Re: Sandbox Cop Game The Precinct Could Be a GTA-Inspired Indie Gem, Out on PS5 in August
This looks brilliant, definitely getting this. Would be great to have a UK version too.
Re: Elden Ring's Massive Shadow of the Erdtree DLC Doesn't Have Any Trophies on PS5, PS4
These companies miss out on thousands of people purchasing DLC by not having trophies. Surely it doesn't take much?
Re: Rumour: LEGO Horizon Adventures Is a PS5, PC Game from Day One, Reveal at Summer Game Fest Tomorrow
Yup, count me in. It's a Lego game, of course it'll be good.
Re: Talking Point: What Are Your PS5 Predictions for Summer Game Fest 2024?
Anything with four wheels and I'm happy.
I'm not going to be happy am I?
Forza is the dream.
Re: PS5, PC Shooter Concord Appears to Be a $40 Game
Wouldn't a free PS Plus Edition be better for it? Maybe it would encourage memberships?
Re: Preview: Elden Ring Promises a DLC Masterclass in Shadow of the Erdtree
Those additions sound fantastic for someone like me who can't remember the controls from two years ago. Great awareness from the devs there.
Re: Breath of the Wild Meets Style Savvy in Whimsical PS5 Open World Infinity Nikki
I didn't realise it was a gacha, kinda put off now. Unless all the outfits are obtainable through just playing?
If it's got a platinum I'll probably give it a whirl as it still does look enticing.
Re: Preview: Gran Turismo Meets NFS in Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown
Gold Edition now pre-ordered.
I'm a sucker for that early access. Terrible I know.
Re: Preview: Gran Turismo Meets NFS in Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown
How's the handling model?
Is it "arcadey" or is that just referring to the gameplay loop?
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for June 2024?
At this point I've bought everything I want anyway so nothing they give away is decent anymore.
Re: Infinity Nikki PS5 Is the Open World Anime Dress-Up Game of Your Dreams
Definitely one of the highlights for me, can't wait to play this.

I'll take a new Astro Bot please.
And anything with four wheels.
Re: Five More Cars, New Events, More Come to Gran Turismo 7 in Latest Free Update
Great to see Volvo back in with some decent cars, shame it wasn't the 1995 T4 era model but we can dream.
Re: Rumour: LEGO Horizon Adventures Is Reportedly Real, a 'Realistic' Horizon Game But with LEGO
I'll play it because it's Lego but as much as Horizon is boring it could mean other PlayStation crossovers are in the works.
Lego Uncharted?
Lego Last of Us?
Lego Ratchet & Clank?
Re: GreedFall 2 May Not Be the Game You Think It Is
I will definitely get this as I enjoyed the world of the first one but I can guarantee I will have to have a walkthrough. I followed one for the first game and was still utterly confused and mystified all the way through.
Re: Ubisoft Cancels Free-to-Play Shooter The Division Heartland
A little gutted but as long as Division 3 is still going I am happy enough.
It still puzzles me why they'd throw away a decent established IP for this new garbage that clearly nobody is going to play.
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Dated for 15th November in First Trailer

Why can't all devs be this open and in touch with their fanbase?
Is it that hard?

@Balosi you've got my vote, I would spend anything they asked for Mad Max 2.
Re: Stylish Arcade Racer #DRIVE Rally Powerslides onto PS5 in 2025
Looks great fun, definite purchase from me.
Re: Sony Wants You To Aid Your Fellow Gamers via Community Game Help
So much easier to just have YouTube on the floor in front of you with several other tabs for walkthroughs etc.
Re: Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin, More Closed in Brutal Bethesda Restructure
Why not sell these developers or let them go their own way rather than just killing them?
Re: Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin, More Closed in Brutal Bethesda Restructure
I keep seeing this in other business fields but I come to the same piece of advice: if any bigger company offers to invest or buy your smaller company for the love of god say no.
Re: Helldivers 2 PSN Requirement Backtracked on PC After Brutal Review Bombing Campaign
Can we know get all these people onto the Stop Killing Games campaign now?

I'm just here for the Windows Phone guy.
Oh and the final few trophies for Fallout 4 100%.
Re: Sony Sings PS Portal's Praises with Accolades Trailer
If they thought this was wildly popular, imagine if they crammed a PS4 inside it.
In the meantime I still keep trying to convince myself to buy a Portal.

Re: Sony and Apollo Reportedly Make $26 Billion All-Cash Paramount Bid
Paramount seems to own the Indiana Jones IP too.
What would that mean for the upcoming videogame?
Re: Talking Point: What's Next for Xbox Games on PS5, PS4?
All the Forzas please!
I would pay full price day one for each and all of them.
