I'm having a blast playing this at the moment, it's very quick 10-15 minute games of killing hundreds of dinosaurs with some great variation in the character/style you can play with. But yeah well worth a 7 at the moment with the repetitiveness, I imagine it will burn people out before the new modes arrive.
@StrawberryTurtle you're right but they are only good if they are not built as pure live service money-making machines. If they are genuinely created as a good game with a live service on top then they can survive but these ones built by boardroom meetings have to die.
Stop making live service games.
If this was single player then it could've lived forever and been sold forever. Now it's lost.
We've got to be over the hump with these games now surely?
@Smiffy01 @Beerheadgamer82 absolutely Driveclub one of the greatest arcade racers of all time for me, the sense of speed, especially in the rain, has yet to be beaten. I even thought the social features along the track were fantastic. If only they kept making more. It's the only physical game I have kept since day one.
Snowrunner: a brilliant puzzle game on wheels, one of my favourite games of all time. A must play.
Pretty handy on Sniper Elite 5 as I was going to repurchase it digitally this week for the DLC and now I don't have to. Sweet!
Are people hating on this purely because it's free somewhere else and/or it has a season pass? Not trying to stir anyone up but I've only just looked into this game and it looks fantastic fun.
@JB_Whiting ahh I see, didn't realise that but checking the trophy lists I can't see any for beating another team so not much to worry about there. Unless I missed it?
@Cashews now I've been watching some gameplay it does appear that it's the sort of game where randoms don't really matter as you're just mowing down dinosaurs (and how cool is that!!) rather than some sort of coordination puzzley thing so I'm going to pick it up and have some fun.
Dredge is winning my GOTY so far.
Just finished FF16 and apart from the spectacle of some battles it was lifeless and boring. Maybe I just can't see the appeal but FF15 was much better.
@number1024 indeed, or just let all consoles play all games and then it's up to you what company you buy them from, that would drop prices in a heartbeat!
Oh I think I've just seen the capitalist flaw in my plan.
Fantastic! I was hesitant waiting for the trophies but pre-ordered right now.
115hrs seems a long time to be not through the second playthrough as I was reading it would be half that. But hey if it's as good as you say it is then I can see why.
Completely unrelated but is that comment counter new?
Actually, looking it up this does look pretty fun, what it has to do with NASCAR I have no idea but hey
@Agramonte ahh that explains it better, strangely better than Ubisoft did on the page. I'll pass on it for now and glad I pre-ordered then. Thanks for that.

Re: PS5 Fans Divided on PlayStation Portal Handheld
As a one TV household it'll come in nice and handy.

Looks fantastic. Definitely there day one.
Re: Feature: Saints Row Expansion Pass Review - Is It Worth Buying?
Aside from the Saint's Row part of this feature I like the idea of reviews for DLC like this and in such a good format. More please @ShogunRok
Re: Lara Croft, Nicki Minaj Coming to Call of Duty
Are the outfits transferable to Captain Price?
Re: Exoprimal Attracts One Million Players, Free Skin to Celebrate
One of the best games of the year I think.
Just hilariously daft shooty fun.
Re: PS4 Version of Snarky Xbox Shooter High on Life Found Loitering in PlayStation Backend
@Mitsui @Smiffy01 as long as you can turn it off I think it should be ok for a few minutes
Re: PS4 Version of Snarky Xbox Shooter High on Life Found Loitering in PlayStation Backend
@Smiffy01 fair enough, is it daftly childish enough to be up my alley?
Re: PS4 Version of Snarky Xbox Shooter High on Life Found Loitering in PlayStation Backend
@Smiffy01 what didn't you like about it?
Re: PS4 Version of Snarky Xbox Shooter High on Life Found Loitering in PlayStation Backend
This looks great fun so will definitely pick this up. If it is real of course.

Re: Preview: The Crew Motorfest Finally Hands PS5 Some Proper Arcade Racing
@MikeOrator ahhh! That would explain that, thanks for replying. I didn't see any dates in the email.
Re: Preview: The Crew Motorfest Finally Hands PS5 Some Proper Arcade Racing
Oooh a code for the closed beta just landed in my inbox, hell yeah!
EDIT: It's unplayable due to server maintenance
Re: Preview: The Crew Motorfest Finally Hands PS5 Some Proper Arcade Racing
Already pre-ordered and even more excited now.
Re: Unlike Recent Assassin's Creeds, There'll Be No DLC or Microtransactions in Mirage
I just want one-shot headshots back again.
Re: Explore Hong Kong in Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown's First Gameplay, Beta Coming Soon
Looks pretty standard stuff but still going to be there day one, it's cars and if there's one thing I love...
Shame about that frame rate.

Not trying to stir anyone up but I've only just looked into this game and it looks fantastic fun.

Re: Exoprimal's PS5, PS4 Platinum Looks Time Consuming But Not Impossible
@Cashews it does look darn fun admittedly, just need to see how much fun it might be with randoms.
Re: Exoprimal's PS5, PS4 Platinum Looks Time Consuming But Not Impossible
@get2sammyb was just reading up on all the negative vibes around this to see if it was worth a buy and realised it was multiplayer, dang
Re: Exoprimal's PS5, PS4 Platinum Looks Time Consuming But Not Impossible
Judging by the rate at which they flood in in this part of a gameplay video it shouldn't actually be too bad.

I might even give it a go.

Re: Hours of Unseen Video Game Footage Is Being Archived Online
I subscribed to their new archive channel when I saw it this morning, looks like years of great content to come.
Re: Disney Speedstorm Launches Free-to-Play on PS5, PS4 in September
I'd love to know why it went free to play so much quicker than Disney Dreamlight Valley. Easier monetisation?
Re: Feature: Summer Game Fest - What's It Like to Attend?
Awesome! A brilliant read, @LiamCroft.
This is the sort of article I'd really like more of in future from Push Square. Good job lads and lasses.
Re: "We've Lost the Console Wars," Says Trillion Dollar Underdog Xbox
@number1024 indeed, or just let all consoles play all games and then it's up to you what company you buy them from, that would drop prices in a heartbeat!
Oh I think I've just seen the capitalist flaw in my plan.
Re: "We've Lost the Console Wars," Says Trillion Dollar Underdog Xbox
@BeerIsAwesome well put. Why can't we just all play together?
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Final Fantasy 16?
Installed it first thing morning but haven't tucked into it yet as want to finish the game I'm playing first.
Re: Final Fantasy 16 Guide: Your Ultimate Wiki and Walkthrough Resource
I'll definitely use it and appreciate the amount of work put in. Thanks @ShogunRok Robert.
Re: Final Fantasy 16 (PS5) - Final Fantasy's Triumphant Return to the Top
Fantastic! I was hesitant waiting for the trophies but pre-ordered right now.
115hrs seems a long time to be not through the second playthrough as I was reading it would be half that. But hey if it's as good as you say it is then I can see why.

Re: Need for Speed Unbound Hits EA Play This Thursday
A wonderful game I urge everyone to play, the new Vol.3 update with the linkups are fantastic fun.
Re: Get These Excellent New PSN Avatars for Free
These are cute and all but I wish you could buy user-made ones, or just upload your own.
Re: Another 27 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Available to Download Now
@KingPev oh, didn't enjoy it? I'm quite enjoying it so far but I love being sneaky
@LazyLombax it's a good romp so far.
Re: Another 27 PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Available to Download Now
Going to finally give Thief a go.
Re: PS Plus Premium Has a 'Bigger Share' of Subscribers than PS Plus Extra, Says Sony
That's surely because it was peanuts to upgrade at the start, once the proper yearly pricing kicks in...
Re: Dead Island 2 a Bone-afide Hit, Roadmap Details Two Story Expansions on PS5, PS4
Absolutely going to get this, one of my games of the year so far so definitely want to jump back in, trophy-dependant naturally.

Re: Star Wars Outlaws to Feature GTA-Style Wanted System to Punish Your Intergalactic Crimes
This is looking fantastic.
I wonder how Ubisoftness will be in it, which is something I don't mind by the way.
Re: Preview: The Crew Motorfest Is Forza Horizon on PS5, and It's Brilliant
@knight_spg Hmm maybe that's just the website itself then as you can't access that via PS5. Who knows how these convoluted things work these days :/
