@LiamCroft Yeah, I was only messing around. Whilst I don't doubt there are some in the company that don't like stuff leaking they're not going to change plans because of it. Everyone was just assuming today from the 30 anyway.
I'm going to need the collectibles guide. I did a collectible run-through before but somehow came up a couple short and if I remember correctly the game doesn't say which.
I already had RE3R installed so had a look. A compilation icon appears with a box for PS5 upgrade but when I select it the options then are 'play' and 'view PS5 version' but selecting the later just takes you to the game page. Guess not quite up yet.
I was really excited when I heard it was from the XCOM developers. Then I heard it's card based and my enthusiasm waned. I'll keep an eye on it though.
Well Sony is on the list of developers/publishers in the show so why not this. A quick teaser with a date and saying more to follow soon. Get everyone talking about a Sony game at a mixed event then put out a SoP in a month or two for the full blow out. The precedent has been set with Horizon doing the date at one of these.
While I do very much miss the excitement of having lots of game reveals in a space of a few days there is no doubt it's demise is for the benefit of the developers. The time and effort that went into producing the vertical slices of polished gameplay for a specific date each year must have been a pain. Now they can reveal stuff whenever it happens to be ready for public showing.
How much notice do people need to buy something? I can easily see an August or even very early September release date reveal if it's coming out in November.
@Voltan I recently watched Pacific Rim: The Black made by Netflix and think that style could work well with Horizon. You're right that to do it well in live action would probably be extremely expensive.
If it had been just the first quote I was thinking he could have meant second game (not necessarily DS related) but the next quote is pretty unambiguous.
Wouldn't be surprised if they are planning on trying to get it ready for when the third Netflix series launches (which I think is near the end of the year) for the extra exposure to the franchise as a whole.
I brought Mutant Year Zero as I absolutely love the X-Com games. However I hit a massive wall about an hour into the game and just couldn't progress and although planned to give it another shot I've yet to get back to it. I'll be curious to see how this one develops as I really liked the element of exploration between battles.
I feel like it seems to be forgotten sometimes that the whole studio was working on RDR2 until the end of 2018 (5 years) with supposedly plenty of crunch. If an extra year or two is needed to truly innovate and avoid crunch I'm all for it.
It made me think I've got to stop bothering to watch these things live and just catch the highlights. It was well produced but had little of interest to me personally.
I thought I seemed to have a lot of money in ME2 from carrying over my character. I've purchased every item from every vendor and barely dented my money.
@Wiggo I got it form 'The Game Collection'. To be fair it's the only game that turned up early of the handful I've brought from them so the odds are pretty slim it will happen again. Still their prices are good and the reward points mean I knock a few quid off every other game I get.

Re: Try Not to Cringe At This Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown PS5, PS4 Trailer
How can be a racing game trailer be cringe I thought? It turns out Sammy is very accurate indeed.
Re: Open World, Survival Terminator Game Will Be Back
I'd never heard of Nacon Studio Milan so did a quick google and it seems they've only made a motor-bike racing game. Still you got to start somewhere.
Re: Shots Fired in First RoboCop: Rogue City PS5 Gameplay Trailer
I wonder if you'll find baby food in the levels to restore your health?
Re: Shots Fired in First RoboCop: Rogue City PS5 Gameplay Trailer
Looks like they have a pretty cool looking Murphy/Robocop ....for cutscenes. Shame it's a FPS but I'll keep an eye out on it to see how it turns out.

Re: God of War Ragnarok's PS5, PS4 Release Date Reveal Was Delayed from Today
Maybe they moved it a day to make the Snitch wrong.
Re: Resident Evil 2 (PS5) - A Cheap and Fairly Cheerful Upgrade
@CyberWolf Yes. When you put the disc in there will be an option to download the PS5 version. You will still have to have the disc in to play though.
Re: Resident Evil 3 Walkthrough: Tips, Tricks, and All Collectibles
I'm going to need the collectibles guide. I did a collectible run-through before but somehow came up a couple short and if I remember correctly the game doesn't say which.

Re: Resident Evil 2, 3, and 7 PS5 Versions Available to Download Now
Was planning some more playthroughs of 2&3 Remakes for trophies anyway so can do it with the upgrades now. Probably 7 too.
Re: A Plague Tale: Requiem Still Set for 2022 in New Trailer
Looking forward to this but a little surprised by no date.
Re: Poll: Was Summer Game Fest Live a Show to Remember?
It was pretty much exactly as expected.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077's Edgerunners Anime Actually Looks Awesome in Teaser Trailer
I'll certainly check it out in September, it looks impressive. I wonder if they will try and get the DLC ready for when this is on.
Re: XCOM Inspired Superhero Game Marvel's Midnight Suns Brightens Summer Game Fast

Re: Resident Evil 4 Remake Announced for PS5, Out March 2023
Looking good. Nothing after 4 needs touching so just go back to Code Veronica and get on Dino Crisis remake please Capcom.

Re: Sony Confirms Horizon, God of War, and Gran Turismo TV Shows in Development
@Voltan I liked the first movie, I've not yet seen the sequel. I think the series is worth checking out, I enjoyed it.

@SoulChimera He'll make an even better Nissan GT-R
Re: The Lord of the Rings: Gollum Protects the Precious on PS5, PS4 This September
They should of got Rob from Playstation Access for the voice. He does a more accurate impression of Serkis' Gollum.
Re: Mini Review: A Monster's Expedition (PS5) - Chill Out with This Relaxing and Intelligent Puzzler
I've certainly been finding myself looking for more chilled relaxing games to play alongside the big games. Looks interesting.

Re: Tomb Raider, Deus Ex Remakes and Remasters Could Come to PS5, PS4
It's about time Lara took on a T-Rex with some pistols again.

Re: Star Wars KOTOR PS5 Remake News Coming 'in the Next Several Months'
I’ve never played the original but only heard good things. Eager to see how this turns out.
Re: Mutant Year Zero Dev Announces Miasma Chronicles for PS5, Out in 2023

Re: Hands On: Matchpoint: Tennis Championships Could Be the Ace We've Been Waiting For
Top Spin 4 would be a remaster I would buy in a heart beat.
Re: Horizon's Tallneck Is Getting Its Very Own LEGO Set
I wonder if this could be the first of many sets. I’m definitely getting this.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Breaks Silence with Stream on 15th February
It would be nice to finally take the game out of the wrapper. I still hold out hope they can turn this game around and regain some reputation.
Re: Maybe Don't Look at Horizon Forbidden West's PS5, PS4 Trophy List
@Voltan that's pretty much all I want to know before starting a game. Missable trophies can be a pain.
Re: Sony Acquires Guns Up Team Valkyrie Entertainment
It seems quite sensible to have a team of devs that can be easily moved from project to project to help other Studios meet deadlines.
Re: Feature: Our PS5, PS4 Predictions for PlayStation Showcase 2021
No-one think it's time for a reveal of part 2 of FF VII Remake?
It would be really nice to be genuinely be surprised by something new that hasn't been rumoured or leaked for a change.
Re: Horizon Forbidden West PS5, PS4 Pre-Orders Live Now, Special Editions Detailed
Regalla Edition already out of stock at Game. Had to go for the CE instead.

Re: GTA 6 Release Window Rumours Pick Up Steam

Re: Poll: What Was Your Favourite PS5, PS4 Game at E3 2021?
After picking A Plague Tale Requiem, I’m struggling to pick anything. That’s how little I’m excited for.
Went for GoG and Avatar as they have potential but definitely need to see/know more on both.
Re: Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Save the Universe on PS5, PS4 This October
Impressed enough to keep an eye on it. Curious to see how in-depth the choice system goes.
I hope we get the 'choice' to cut that silly little beard off Rocket.
Re: A Plague Tale: Requiem Very Likely Coming to PS5, PS4
@Agramonte Cool so new gen only. Even more exciting then.
Re: A Plague Tale: Requiem Very Likely Coming to PS5, PS4
Probably the only thing I've seen all E3 that I'm interested in. Look forward to seeing how they might improve upon the original.
