Hopefully an official announcement is imminent. Do this right and this is a day one purchase for me.

'no notable sporting or cultural events to mention'

Not a fan of the women's World Cup @get2sammyb?

It’s great this is looking more likely to be true. Just a question of the level of improvement involved.
A decently optimised port is good enough for me to purchase. Anything above that is a bonus.

I’m curious to see if the name change has any effect on sales. I do wonder how many gamers that don’t follow gaming news might be unaware.
I’d guess EA is going to do a lot of marketing to make sure everyone knows.

Whilst I’m up for another Last of Us game, I’m eager to see something new from them.
I’m hopeful the talk of staff moving off the multiplayer game was described as moving to other ‘projects’ plural. Maybe some staff are starting to kick off 3 but most are plugging away at a new IP that’s only a year or two away 🤞

I was waiting for this. Shame the day one patch didn't sort out all the bugs, I hope they can get on top of them quick.
Still doesn't sound bad enough to hold off, time to jump in I think.

@lolwhatno It's a single player game.

@AinsleyE You seem to be the only one realising this. Without the Skull & Bones problems I very much doubt this would be happening (if it is). Overall a pretty smart decision to help recover some of development costs which they probably unlikely to recoup from the sales of S&B.

Ditto the thoughts of some others here that despite the second game being superior in so many gameplay and world crafting aspects I generally prefer the original. Mostly just prefer playing as John and his journey.
A total remake in the sequel world/engine would be the best, a basic remaster next best, but failing those a straight functional port to current gen would still be welcome.
I'm sceptical it's any of this and won't get my hopes up until an official announcement.

I was finally planning on playing the game after finishing what I'm playing now. When I heard about this I thought about holding off for a bit longer but seeing as there different endings/starts I think I'll still play it and do another playthrough when it drops.

What an apt choice of words
'we need to be exploiting Lord of the Rings'.
The phrase 'all your eggs in the same backet' comes to mind.

They are killing it with most of their games but don't really know when or how to do a showcase yet.
They probably need to stop giving there best stuff to Sony to show off.

It certainly looks like a promising return to core gameplay design. Baring some bad reviews/launch issues I'm looking forward to it.

For games shown with Avatar, Mirage and Outlaws all looking decent it was a good. As for the 'presentation', it provided all that is not missed from old E3.

I thought it looked very impressive and a lot of fun. I loved the seamlessness of it all. Lots of potential in this one.

@danzoEX I did see that option appear when I finished and I will give that a go later as the combat you do play seemed enjoyable enough.
Not convinced on the giant entity (forgotten the name) battles though.

I'm on the fence about the game so decided to give the demo a go. I just finished it a little while ago and quite surprised how little you actually play the demo, at least for the first half. I think in the first hour, aside from the 'learn how to fight' training section all I did was watch cutscenes and walk/run from point A to point B.
I'm all for engrossing stories and quality cutscenes but was expecting a bit more idea how it actually plays from a demo.
It did pick up though and it got me a little intrigued in the story but it didn't do enough to get me off the fence.

Looks like there might be multiple colour-schemes for the suits this time. Looking forward to this.

That's a such an odd choice of skin as good old Optimus should be as tall as a couple of houses. I'd have to imagine it will look like a cosplayer running around.

Thanks for posting this. I've submitted my survey to let them know I would like The original and Code Veronica so that it made a complete saga of the first set of games all up to date.
I'm not fussed about any RE titles after that personally. Whilst I thought 5 was a fun game, it had strayed to far into an out and out action game for me.

@Fyz306903 Another Polish studio called Fool's Theory which has a fair amount of ex-CDPR staff. It's also being overlooked by CDPR themselves.
Yeah I think 2027/28 would be a safe bet on next gen.

I imagine we will see the remake before the new game, which I’m confident would be a new game to a great many anyway.
Even if the new one is 3/4 years away I still think that will be a PS5 game.

I'm just finishing up my playthrough of the current gen version having done it twice on PS4 before. I was curious if I'd love it as much a few years later and yep, still one of my favourite games ever.

Eager to see how the remake of the original turns out, plus the new game too.

@Frank90 Casey Hudson did start a new studio and is working on a sci-fi game (original).

I'd love to see it if they can pull this remake off but it does sound like a tough job.

I loved that you could tell the symbiote was starting affect Peter. I wonder how far into the game he gets the suit. Looking great.

I think they are probably trying to aim for September but aren't quite ready to commit to it yet.

Think that might be the first time I have voted 'poor'. Obviously not much ready to be shown from Sony's own studios yet.

Thank god for Spidey at least.

Question 29 is the big one for me. I hope the majority is right and we have at least one completely new IP and it's a total surprise because no internet attention seeker has heard about and decided to shout about it.

@LiamCroft Isn't The Expanse a Prime show not Netflix?

It's been sitting in my watchlist for ages waiting for me to start watching. Still it's good to know this is before should I decide to play it.

@Voltan yeah same. I just updated and gave it a try but it’s still the same and doesn’t trigger the flight starting point.

I don't see the fuss. Does it in any way affect how a person can play the game if they ignore them?

With COD going team green I'd have to assume Sony is going to put extra effort into maintaining the marketing rights for this other moneymaker. EA is probably going to advertise overtime as well to ensure everyone knows of the brand change.

I just really don’t see really why Sony would. Last generation was the first time this has happened and was due to unique circumstances that don’t exist now. Hardware is made with razor thin margins to make money from the software. I don’t recall the pro being hugely successful anyway.

Seems smart as I'm sure the trailer will get a ton of views. The film is certainly looking very promising.

Playstation Access are going to be playing this tomorrow on their stream and inviting people to send them levels to try and beat. I'll probably watch to see what it's like but can't imagine it's something I'll play at the moment.

Burning Shores pre-ordered the moment it went live.

I'm going to wait on reviews for Jedi, if it doesn't improve a lot of stuff from the original I'll wait for price drop on that.

@AJP49ers If she hasn't already done her work for the DLC I would hope she doesn't allow these emotionally stunted idiots to influence her.
I personally think she did exactly what she was directed to do and sound cold, cynical and detached. Like I said, I look to forward to playing her DLC if it comes.

I had to check online when I first heard the voice as I thought it sounded different to what I remembered from RE2 Remake. I thought it a shame it has changed so soon from a continuity standpoint but very quickly disregarded it.
If the rumoured Ada dlc is true I’ll be getting it day one.

Needless to say this kind of behaviour is repugnant.

That looks very promising. I'm going to have to keep an eye on this one.

I’m just curious why some of the people who don’t think there will be a PS5 Pro (like me) have chosen a year for the non-existent console to launch?

I'm not surprised about not seeing stuff until very late with Sony (and don't really have a problem with it) but I find it a bit odd it's not in the PS Store yet.

Can't we just get the developers back for Top Spin 5? I'd even take a remaster of Top Spin 4 at this point.

Sounds like it needs some work on the voice and the distinct sound of his gun. If it's of a similar standard to Terminator it will be worth a play.

Mafia is just the type of game I look for in the plus monthly games. Something I’m curious to try but not quite enough to buy it.

If I get at least 2 or 3 of those a year I’m good with that. There has been many games I’ve ended up enjoying that I otherwise would never have played.

Time to make some space in my gaming schedule to get a second platinum on one of my all time favourite games.

It even has MR on it, you know, for Mass Relay.

@InvaderJim I got it downloaded last night so I've had a quick go. EA and it's terms and conditions though, I wasn't sure if I was starting a game or asking for a bank loan.

I’ll mostly be playing A Plague Tale Requiem but just about to give the free trial of F1 22 a go. I’ll see what sort of time I can achieve in Austin before the real thing later today.

This is made me realise I’m not sure if my tv is 2.1 or not. I will have to check.
Great set of options.

Definitely looking forward to the Resident Evil 4 Remake. I didn’t realise they were remaking 2 again (might want to edit that penultimate sentence).

I'm a fan of the sport but haven't played the game in years. I've pondered getting it a few times, so I'll certainly give a free try.

I don't want to start anything new with A Plague Tale Requiem days away so I might go back and try for some trophy runs of RE2 or RE3.
