@Porco Porco nailed it, the first game came out almost at the end of PS4's lifecycle and we're midway through PS5. A friend of mine actually jumped the gun and bought a PS5 today just to play Rebirth.
Valhalla was ok but waaaaay to bloated. To be honest I'm more concerned about the fact that they're going to make you play as a character based on Yasuke instead of, you know, a japanese.
@Nepp67 Mate if you tried more than once and didn't enjoy it, just leave it. I like it, but our time in this world is too limited, spend it doing things that you like instead.
I'm glad it is a success, it is a really good game, but I have to admit that I played a pirated version due to it being all digital. Will buy a copy once/if it will be released on a disc.
@DennisReynolds It is hard to get that sweet spot where people are still engaged and almost everyone dropped off. I think between 8 months to 1 year, but of course sometimes it is hard to put out something during that timing, especially when it's a beefy expansion.
I still have most Xbox xclusives in physical, but I sold my 360 and then I sold my One. Now I'll probably buy a Series X when they're dirt cheap so that I can play the physical media. I don't think Lost Odyssey will come to PS, and that's a shame, that's defo a game that I would buy again.
While I do believe that some games will come (namely Hi-Fi Rush and Sea of Thieves, maybe Starfield) people are running rampant with these rumors now and just spewing whatever at the moment
It is nice to see a woman in an important position like this, for a long time Blizzard has a been a cool dudes group. That said, kinda sucks that we have an Activision person leading Blizz, for years they have tried to fight the influence of Activision in Blizzard and now, well.....
@mariomaster96 While I do agree with you to a point, this time the NG+ actually has a new chapter with new sujimon, characters and other stuff. There are also trophies/achievements for that part (although they're not tied to the platinum)
@LiamCroft The listing of the early 2024 releases in the playstation blog is storted by date, with Foamstars and Stellar Blade in the middle of known releases but with only the 2024 release date. Since Foamstarts has the correct date for where it is positioned in the list (February), this would put Stellar Blade releasing before Destiny 2 Final Shape (April/May)
I know that Sony has dealings with Mihoyo, but it was a huge miss that they did not acquire them when Genshin came out. Their games print money, and are actually quite good rpgs. With a 3rd one coming out, that company's stock is going to skyrocket.
I feel like I'm the only person that really didn't like what they did with the show apart from some things (Nick was great so was Anna as Tess), so for me it wasn't a shock that Succession swept the awards
Expected, a bit sad that we don't get Factions 2, but I would be way more depressed if they turned into some GAaS studio. Glad they're focusing on SP. What sucks is that this project has probably pushed any new game they have in the oven, further away.
It kinda sucks that Sony once again went with this option of selling the special edition on their story one and at a very limited number. I have most of these editions for their first party and some second party games for PS4 and PS5.

Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Uncapped Frame Rate Put to the Test on PS5, Preview Build Averages 31fps

Re: Surprise Final Fantasy 7 Remake Patch Changes the Ending
I like, its what she says in the original, it's also what she says in the Japanese version

Re: A Bloodborne Remake on PS6 Might Have More 'Value', Creator Suggests
Honestly, the game doesn't need a remake, just a 60 fps patch.
Re: Xbox Game Hi-Fi Rush Announced for PS5, Out Next Month
Digital only?
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Devs Call Out State of the Industry from DICE Awards Stage
They also got banned from the afterparty, probably because talking ***** about investors/shareholders.
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Wins Big at DICE Awards, But Baldur's Gate 3 Takes Game of the Year
BG3 more than deserved the GOTY, what an amazing game. I haven't been this obsessed with a game for years now.
Re: Without a Physical PS5 Release, Alan Wake 2 Is Still Remedy's Fastest Selling Game
I'm glad it is a success, it is a really good game, but I have to admit that I played a pirated version due to it being all digital. Will buy a copy once/if it will be released on a disc.

well, what a load of crap that spewed from that dude's mouth
Re: Bloober Team Insists Konami to Blame for Ill-Received Silent Hill 2 Remake Trailer
Oh, did Konami create the janky animations?
Re: Imminent Elden Ring DLC Release Date Crushed by FromSoftware's Parent Company
@DennisReynolds It is hard to get that sweet spot where people are still engaged and almost everyone dropped off. I think between 8 months to 1 year, but of course sometimes it is hard to put out something during that timing, especially when it's a beefy expansion.
Re: FromSoftware Parent Crushes Hopes of Imminent Elden Ring DLC Release
I gotta be honest. I loved Elden Ring, but getting DLC 2 years after the game came out is just....meh.
Re: Poll: Which Xbox Franchises Would You Buy on PS5?
I still have most Xbox xclusives in physical, but I sold my 360 and then I sold my One. Now I'll probably buy a Series X when they're dirt cheap so that I can play the physical media.
I don't think Lost Odyssey will come to PS, and that's a shame, that's defo a game that I would buy again.

Re: Could Sony, Hideo Kojima's Physint Be the First Announced PS6 Game?
I mean, most likely. This game won't come out for 4 years at least so....
Re: New Silent Hill 2 PS5 Trailer Shows Combat, Puzzles, and More
It looks kinda ok, I was expecting worse from blooper team, but James' animations look a bit odd.
Re: Poll: How Would You Rate the Latest State of Play Showcase?
It was very good.

Really sucks for the people affected though.

Re: Foamstars Releases 6th February as a PS Plus Essential Game
So does this basically confirm Stellar Blade as an April/May release?
Re: Grounded II Documentary Will Spill the Beans on The Making of The Last of Us 2
Loved "Raising Kratos". Can't wait to watch this.
Re: Here's Why Sony Is Making Big Moves in the Mobile Games Sector
I know that Sony has dealings with Mihoyo, but it was a huge miss that they did not acquire them when Genshin came out. Their games print money, and are actually quite good rpgs. With a 3rd one coming out, that company's stock is going to skyrocket.

Why did I play that video expecting to hear Yuuichi Nakamura?!
Re: The Last of Us Multiplayer Project Is Officially Cancelled

This dude has no idea what he's starting.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla?
Don't like roguelikes, I'm just playing it to see the bit of story they put in it, but this mode is not that good.
Re: E3 Is Officially Dead
It's a bit sad to see it gone, but I mean, this thing was in a come for a couple of years now.
Re: The Day Before Dev Drops Digital Smoke Bomb, Disappears Days After Early Access Launch
Even before Nick started pointing out that they nuked all the accounts, you couldn't buy the game anymore from Steam, the sales were blocked.
Re: Kratos Voice Actor Underfire for Roasting New Call of Duty Campaign
Ajinkya Limaye retort was completely butthurt. Who cares if codes destroys the metrics, it's a worse game overall.
Re: The Game Awards Is Getting Ripped for Urging Award Winners to Wrap It Up
@nessisonett Did he mention anything thing about Ukraine last year? I don't recall it.
Re: Poll: Was The Game Awards 2023 Worth Watching?
It was nice, like every years. It's cool to have a night like this.
Re: Monster Hunter Wilds Is Happening on PS5 in 2025
That cheeky 6 in the title.
Is it just me or this looks more like Rise than World, graphical-wise?! I wonder if this is also a Switch game.
Re: Where to Pre-Order The Last of Us 2 Remastered WLF Edition
@Almost_Ghostly It hasn't been available since 30-40 mins after they put it on sale.
Re: Where to Pre-Order The Last of Us 2 Remastered WLF Edition
I just saw the price. 110€......I think they've been smoking some things
Re: Final Five Games Battle It Out for The Game Awards Players' Choice
You get currency in Genshin for voting, so even if people don't care or don't even know what the TGAs are, they will vote for it.

Re: PlayStation Users Set to Lose Hundreds of TV Shows They Paid For
No dude, you don't understand! Digital is the future!
Re: Maybe Don't Expect an Elden Ring DLC Release Date at The Game Awards
DLC coming 2 years after the release is kind of a bummer.
