Re: PS Plus Extra, Premium Get 17 More Games Next Week

Batesy125s

That's a fantastic lineup. For once I'm actually most excited to see the ps plus premium games. Legend of dragoon alone is worth the price of admission, but wild arms 2 is a good add, and I used to love playing Harvest moon at my mate's. He found it boring but I loved it

Re: Final Fantasy 16 Is Already Hyping Up a Huge Year

Like you guys, I'd like to see more gameplay in regards to exploration, as part of the fun for me for any FF game (and most RPGs to be honest) is finding all the new towns and secret areas. But even without that, FF16 is probably my most anticipated game of 2023, with the possible exception of Spiderman 2

Re: This Use of PSVR2's Eye Tracking Is Truly Terrifying

@Impossibilium my first thought too, as soon as i say the under headline "dont blink". A doctor who weeping angels game would be amazing, and I'd definitely play it. Doctor who in general shoukd be ripe for gaming adaptations, but so far no one has done a particularly good job

Re: Feature: What We Want From Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, and How It Needs to Improve on Remake

Batesy125s

Overall I like the fact that they just stuck to the broad outlines of the original story, and I loved the changes and the possible 'multiverse' story. I still have the original and if it was just a straight scene for scene remake I don't think I'd have loved the game as much as I did.

That said the side-quests were not great and got repetitive quickly and although I think the linear nature worked well as it was all set in Midgar, the world of the original opened right up afterwards, so I'm hoping Rebirth does the same

Re: Fortnite Collision Event Concludes Chapter 3 Season 2 with Epic Mech Battle

@BritneyfR_ee completely agree. I rarely play fortnite in my own but my son is a big fan and I quite often play it with him and we both thought it was amazing and great fun. My son got so excited when he saw Darth Vader, and he barely knows Star wars. Dont know why people have to be so down on it. Don't like it, don't play it. I never really enjoyed Game of thrones but I'd never criticise the other millions of people who loved it. People have different opinions and that's great!

Re: Poll: Are You Sold on PS Plus Extra or Premium?

Batesy125s

At the minute extra offers the best value for money IMO. But if the selection of classic games expands to include more games that can't be played currently without the original consoles, then I'll be happy to subscribe to premium. Ps2 is my favourite console so if we can start to get more games from that generation, it will be much more appealing to me

Re: Falcom Aware of Overseas Demand for New Trails Game Kuro no Kiseki, Mentions Potential PS5 Version

Only finally got round to playing the firsts TOCS game earlier this year, and I got hooked. Brilliant series and I think it stands up there as one of the most expansive stories I've played. It reminds me of the good seasons of Game of thrones, complete with family and country politics that go along with it. If it didn't have very anime dialogue I think more people would be talking about this game as one of the best gaming stories

Re: THQ Nordic Reveals 10th Anniversary Showcase for 17th September

Batesy125s

@KidBoruto oh I loved Timesplitters back in the day, especially 2. Me and my friends used to play the heck out of them. One of my favourite ever times for multilayer gaming. The only thing that worries me is whether the games can still be relevant I'm a post-Overwatch world (I personally don't play Overwatch but I know it's very popular)

Re: God of War Creator Says First-Party Games Will Be at PlayStation Showcase 'With Flying Colours'

Batesy125s

@Col_McCafferty I hope so. I'm usually pretty positive on here tbf. I love playstation, have done since I got the ps1, Christmas 98. I already know not every game is for me, but I try not to poo poo them because I know other people will be interested. Personally I can't wait for the showcase, I know if it's anything like last year's events there will be at least 1 or 2 'must buys' for me

Re: The Winners from Sony's Latest State of Play

Batesy125s

Excited to go back to Death stranding. I loved it but never finished it, and these upgrades look well worth an extra tenner to experience. Looking forward to lost judgement, and I'm looking forward to the Demon slayer game, even though I only watched the first episode. Gonna have to catch up and see what the fuss was about
