Couldn't be more pleased with Alan Wake and Endling, two good games i dont have. Started a years £99.99 Premium last August and within less than the first two months of being on it I'd already had my £99.99 moneys worth

Prefer to check out High on Life on my PS5 instead, it's not Xbox 1st party so could see it on PS5 later this year?

@Mio_Nakashima I'm really fascinated to see how well the next new Nintendo console or hybrid does. I don't think Nintendo have had back to back successful consoles in a long time, last time I think was NES followed by the SNES, both being very succesful back to back for their time. Obviously hugely successful Nintendo handhelds inbetween and the hugely successful Wii of course

@Mio_Nakashima yh that is a little annoying. I suppose it gives us a rough estimate to how a game is doing rather than their outright total figures. The best way to do it would be every month or 3 have total worldwide charts for both consoles sold and games purchased including boxed and digital and have a separate GamePass and PS Plus chart for their top downloaded games. Maybe to much work getting all the figures correct every month or 3, would be ideal though

@Mio_Nakashima yh possibly. But it is nice to know how some consoles are doing elsewhere, same with new game releases too. Getting the whole picture rather than just a slice or two

Struggling to see how it's Sonys or Nintendos fault that Sega dropped out of the console business. N64 and Gamecube wasn't doing huge numbers at the time of the Dreamcast. Can't expect Sony to come out and say oh we won't be putting out our new PS2 console in 2000, 2001 and 2002 because instead we want to delay it a few years so Dreamcast can sell a ton more consoles. I've read over the years that the problem with Sega was the Saturn and the way it went about its business in 94 which may have had a knock on effect to the downfall of Sega in the very early 00s. Maybe there's something I'm missing and if there is, excuse my ignorance, what do I know im just a gamer. For the record I had a Saturn in the 90s and a Dreamcast in 2000, thoroughly enjoyed them both

Not really surprised about any of this. I did read earlier this week that PS5 is outselling the Switch in US and not just by revenue either, which I think is a bigger market in comparison to Japan. Is there any reasons why we only get UK and Japan numbers but not US or Europe numbers, or maybe they don't share numbers like UK or Japan does?

Didn't know you could go around calling people names on here, not that I'm offended by it as I've grown out of that nonsense years ago but why are some allowed to get away with it. Do you have to press the report button it if someone resorts to childish bully tactics on here, I only joined last year so I dunno. I've always tried to be respectful towards others on here no matter how much I may disagree about something

@Cashews it's all made up words to get the deal done though isn't it. Why wasn't there no deal put together between Activision and Nintendo for CoD to be on the Switch before this attempted acquisition. No need to resort to words like calling me goof, I'm a fully grown adult not a teen

Monopolysoft. Kotick said today he regrets completely ignoring the Nintendo Switch by not putting CoD on the hybrid. I'd hazard a guess Kotick is only saying this now so he can get the deal done so he can end up with more millions in his bank. Funny how he wasn't saying this when there was no huge acquisition happening with his company

@Javafriek genuinely agree with every you just said but my massive backlog is telling me different everytime. Already gonna fall further behind on the backlog with many more big releases this year too

Hopefully Hot Wheels Unleashed dlc is on there, always been very expensive for a dlc that one has

Been tempted to jump back in for some online races but there's no new challenging trophies for me to have a go at, done the plat a couple months after release. Obviously not really complaining here as it's free content but disappointing a little there's no new trophies yet

Buzzing my manb👀bies off for Alan Wake remastered. Been on my wishlist for some time now but deliberately didn't buy it for this reason. With AW2 just around the corner I had a good feeling they'd put the first one on Plus. Same happened with Grid Legends. This year I think is the happiest I've been with Plus for a long time

Microsoft more like Monopolysoft

The next time Xbox try do a big exclusivity deal with a 3rd party game why not PS just buy the whole company instead to stop it being exclusive for a year, it's only fair

@BusyOlf not necessarily. I think many are just happy for it to be updated for modern consoles after it being stuck on PS3 going nowhere for the past decade rather than fanboys complaining about it not remaing a PS exclusive. PS got to play Alan Wake and now Xbox and Nintendo will now most likely get to play MGS4. That's a W for everyone

Much rather have Spider-man and Wolverine anyways. If I feel like raiding some tombs I can play Tomb Raider or Uncharted

Not Sony or Nintendos fault that Xbox is always 3rd. Just goes to show being a trillion dollar company doesn't guarantee you being the market leader. Releasing high quality 1st party games consistently almost every year goes along way for being market leader and PS has done that job consistently better than Xbox, I'm sorry that's just a fact not made up nonsense. They are currently starting to turn things around on 1st party but if they didn't recently purchase Bethesda and Ninja Theory all they'd have this year would be Forza again. Amazes me how little they'd have if purchasing Bethesda wasn't possible

Honestly I'm such a massive MGS fan, so Spiderman 2 will just have to make room for it. Everything else installed on my PS5 around the end of October and November are gonna be ignored. Swap them around, one night it'll be SM2 and then the following night will be MGS or play them both in same evening game sesh. Gonna feel so good getting back on the MGS train, nostalgia wins sometimes

Yh I think I'll stick with my Ghost of Tsushima mask avatar but thanks for the heads up

@Loamy appreciate it. A bonus its quite smaller than what I was expecting. Thought it be closer to 70 or 80GB given all the updates

Zelda might be top again in the physical uk charts but there's only two Nintendo games in the top 10. The rest are made up of PS and Xbox games and you'd have to guess most sales being on PS4 and PS5 given how there's more PS consoles in comparison to Xbox consoles sold, and with Xbox mostly seem to use and talk subscription GamePass more than anything else

Wondering how big the total install size for this game now is on PS5

Lonely Mountains Downhill being a small install size, yh why not

Tacoma and Shredders Revenge will be installed today. Possibly look into some others like A Hat In Time but backlog is getting bigger rather than smaller goddammit

GAME store near me ain't ready for physical preorders in store yet. Don't usually preorder but it's PS 1st party Insomniac we're talking about here, the chances of the game being crap and broken are extremely low

Since buying this game on release when only having a PS4 at the time, this PS5 version has been on my backlog for a couple years now but it looks like I'm FINALLY gonna get my moneys worth with these updates to the base game soon. I'd usually ignore games like these that release completely broken but preorder hype happened like it did to so many, won't be happening again

Definitely checking out Tacoma, looks to have an interesting story. Lonely Mountains Downhill also and of course Shedders Revenge

Equal amount of blame goes to the game publishers just as much as it does Xbox or PS. Atlas and Sega said yes to Xbox deep pockets just like Konami said yes to PS for Silent Hill 2 timed console exclusivity. Theres obviously a lot more that goes into these deals that we simply won't ever know about. Although the thing with Square is a genuine weird one given how long the exclusivity deal has lasted, unless of course PS eventually buys Square then it would make more sense?

Xbox gobbling up all these 3rd party games to be day one on Gamepass with their deep pockets and then complain that PlayStation are getting free cosmetics dlc for Avatar Frontiers of Pandora. I suppose when you are so much more richer than the competition double standards start taking effect and starts going to your head

@Enigk if we did that how else are we supposed to play Spiderman2, Wolverine, Silent Hill2, FF, Ghost of Tsushima2 and many others. Funny

Chocolate bars have gotten smaller but raised in price. Video game collectors editions with physical figurines will be a thing of the past. All cars will sound like your microwave. No stores to go out on a weekend and grab your favourite piece of entertainment. Buying clothes online and then wondering why it doesn't fit them properly. Wouldn't be surprised if I'm paying £84.99 for a digital PS6 game in 2029 with physical not even an option anymore. Paying more and more for less and less appears to be the future. Sucks a**

@Fyz306903 difficult to say at this point. 10th gen I'd guess Nintendo got a good chance of still being physical more than Xbox And PS and who knows maybe this detachable disc drive rumour thing could be experimental for the PS6 too, as well as the current PS5

Silent Hill, RE, MGS, GT, Yakuza and a few PS 1st party I have full physical collections of being my favs so this naturally sucks for me if theres no physical but at the same time it's not shocking or unexpected in anyway. It does feel random though all of a sudden with AW2 recently making headlines for it. Just feels unnatural to be randomly happening smack bang in the middle of a consoles life where randomly some will have physical and some will not. Why now all of a sudden and not at the start of the PS6 or something like that instead

Work on my backlog still, recent Uncharted remasters, Death Stranding DC, Witcher 3 remastered and Plague Tale Requiem. Had to delete Watch Dogs Legion last night after a borefest opening 4 hours go to the yellow marker on the map, hack a door, maybe use spiderbot or knockout a few guards and then hack a computer for some boring audiolog rinse and repeat💤, was from Extra though so practically free

Insomniac are seriously on top their game this past decade and its only gonna start getting better with the Wolverine hype train most likely ramping up next year too

There's a decent slim chance Pragmata could be revealed tonight at SGF. You might think well why not just show it at their own Capcom showcase but the SGF showcase will have more eyes on it I think. Would be nice to know what genre of game Pragmata is more than anything else. I'd love to see Code Veronica remake get announced but even more than that I'd love to see Onimusha and Dino Crisis make comeback in some capacity being revived from their graves, unlikely I know but I'd be all over it if it happens

Capcom looked at the MGS vol 1 collection and thought you know what it's about time we did something with our original 90s RE trilogy collection for modern consoles, it's just a one off collection though no vol 2 and will be revealed at this Capcom showcase. This is what I've been hoping for, for well over 10 years now but nothing. Meanwhile older original Street Fighter games have had multiple collections and Mega Man has also but one of their biggest money makers RE has been completely ignored when it comes to its originals, why. What's the point of giving the mini PlayStation and PS plus premium the directors cut of the very first RE if you are then gonna completely ignore the slightly better sequels, makes zero sense. Also all 4 PS2 Onimusha games remastered in a collection, even though I own all the originals physically already but with trophies this time and new lick of HD paint

Didn't SF6 only release last friday, that's only 3 days on the market. I'm sure a weeks sales is 7 days not 3

I'm good for now with the never ending backlog and all the PS Plus games on top. I'll have a proper looksy when boot up the PS5 later just incase something tickles my fancy. Having a beertime this evening with Noel Gallaghers new record Council Skies. Love me some IPA with guitar tunes on the occasional weekends

Code Veronica deserves a remake way more than RE5. Not only is CV an older game that needs a remake way more than 5, it's also a far superior survival horror game too imo

RE9
Code Veronica remake
Dino Crisis remake/reboot

@KundaliniRising333 constantly complain on almost every article and then call everyone who disagreed with you a child. It's funny because you come across as an intelligent guy when I read some of your comments. Sometimes though you have to realise that not everyone is gonna have the same tastes as your own and when constantly complaining and the negativity on almost every comment, doesn't look good. I could choose to complain on every game that's not to my tastes but I don't because if something like Diablo is not for me, I straight away realise oh there's many gamers that also really enjoy Diablo so I'll try to be respectful at the very least

@KundaliniRising333 those backpacks you speak of provide a nice little slice of Peter Parkers life, kind of like a bit of back story in a weird sort of way, so they're not as useless as you are making them out to be and there is 55 backpacks in total not 100s. Screwball though can shove those photobombs right up her you know what where the sun don't shine

Both Snake Eater remake and vol 1 are easily no brainer day ones. There's a lot less to mess up with a remake and a collection. Just happy to be getting more MGS on a modern console tbh. Just really hoping vol 2 has Phantom Pain and MGS4. MGS1 on vol 1 comes with trophies would be nice. Yes I know remakes can still mess things up but I trust it, as everything I've heard so far and screenshots seem promising

None of these are for me but I hope they turn out to be something special for their fans and boy oh boy do they have a lot of fans. I'll gladly get SF6 in sales later down the road though. I just wanna see Spidey2 and Space Marine 2 release dates for this year

Touching grass this time

Don't own any of these so they'll be nice to add to library at least but that's mostly because I didn't want to buy any of these games to begin with. Maybe Trek to Yomi at some point. Like Jurassic Park but that's not how I want to play a Jurassic Park game. Oh well suppose you can't win every month

@Ludacritz Hideo Kojima wasn't properly involved with the MGS1 Twin Snakes remake and is not liked much by many MGS fans. I think of the Twin Snakes remake to be OK at best. When I think of MGS my mind instantly goes to Hideo Kojima and when I think of RE my mind doesn't always instantly think of Shinji Mikami
