Oh thank god. Was getting this collection anyways regardless. What are you gonna do about it when I pick up my preorder on release day and then pop it into my PS5, nothing because there's nothing you can do about it. When you adore something so bloody much you simply dont care
@XboxTheBestBox how's that in anyway relevant to PS gamers though. Unless I'm colorblind this site is blue and has square in its name relating to the fact you press a square button on the PS controller, theres no button with square on the Xbox controller (obviously). Not really something to be proud of staying in my lane but sometimes when I read some comments I feel like patting myself on the back for doing just that
So uk time is Tuesday night 7pm. Annoys me a little that the 24 hour clock is rarely ever used when giving times. As soon as I see 19:00 I instantly know its evening night time when it starts. Just personally nitpicking a little
One of my all time fav game series getting a collection which has been dead for 8 years since Hideo Kojima left Konami with no chance at all of MGS6 ever happening. Still very much gutted about it all tbh. Yh still own all these games physically except for the early non PlayStation versions but having them all available again on modern consoles makes me very happy. I'll take anything we get considering I thought Konami and MGS were forever dead in the gaming world. MGS collections yes please, Snake Eater remake yes please and Silent Hill 2 remake yes please
A bit of Sniper Elite 5 from Extra and slowly chipping away at the Grid Legends plat from Essential. Taken me about 10 hours to get the first two main mission maps done in SE5 because following a guide for all collectables, and just messing around on its maps looking for inventive ways to kill as many as possible undetected
This is the least surprising news ever. All we need now is one massively improved Showcase and some smaller SoPs next year for what's to come. There has been rumour talk of another PS showcase a little later this year but I highly doubt that but wouldn't be surprised either
@NinjaNicky if you wait about a year it should be around 20 or 15 or less in CeX. If wait 18 months to 2 years should be around a tenna. Be easy to wait for a huge price drop especially for those that have already finished the game a decade ago. Waiting that long all depends on how much you really like the game I suppose. Personally I don't mind waiting a long time for a chunky price drop given how I've finished with it on PS3 plus it's dlc already done with, plus the never ending backlog these days
Have a weird but obviously uncertain feeling that Xbox backwards compatibilty is partly to blame for it being 4K 30fps on PS as well, for some sort of parity. Could be completely wrong too of course. Could of potentially ended up with a SeriesX and PS5 remaster at 60fps instead, if it wasn't already availible on Xbox backwards compatibilty 360 to Xbox ONE. $50 and £40 that's got nothing to do with Xbox or PS though
Maybe because the Xbox version is 4k30 the PS version has to be 4k30 hence why it's on the PS4 version and not a proper PS5 remastered version at 60fps, for more better parity with Xbox. Not putting the blame on Xbox of course but the Xbox backwards compatibilty is a genuine possibility as to why RDR1 is not a latest gen version with 60fps. Hypothetically speaking if there were no backwards compatibilty for RDR1 on Xbox at all then this RDR1 could have potentially been a proper latest gen remaster at 60fps for both SeriesX and PS5?
I suppose someone has to by it new physically then trade it in, so I can then buy it used later down the line. Remember buying a used copy physically ain't supporting this tosh port
@Smiffy01 ha that recently happened to me with the Syphon Filter games on PS Plus Premium, not so much its graphics from the time but it's controls. I mean Syphon Filter controls wasn't great when originally released but oh man those controls today are even worse than I remember
@Smiffy01 many of these PS1 classics are physically still sitting on my shelf, for the most part collecting dust and will in the future all be boxed up in plastic boxes, including many PS2 titles as well. The thing is I can always play many of these PS1 titles anytime I want on the original PS1 or even on PS3 but I rarely ever do these days because I've had my enjoyment fill with them many years ago and also my more modern consoles having huge never ending backlogs keeping me away from the classics even more. Having trophy support added to these classics can sometimes make me want to play some classics all over again, like the trophies themselves becoming an added incentive and maybe a new added challenge. Obviously it's not the same for everyone but to me It does feel super weird these days playing a game on a modern console (regardless of how old the game is) that has no trophies at all. There has now been trophies available on PS consoles longer than when they never existed
Can you imagine a full PS5 current gen reboot for this. 4K, 60fps, HDR and possible RT, would look amazing. Maybe add some mild character story mode for each vehicle as well inbetween the many races. Online multiplayer mode racing too why not
I never owned a 3Dtv for 3D PS3 games but I certainly would have liked to try it at the time. If PS Stars is a way for me to potentially play more games or different games that I possibly wouldn't have done otherwise then it's all good
Sony should continue doing things Microsoft doesn't. Upping new content for PSVR2, supported better than PSVR1 where possible, if possible. Continue developing new controllers for maybe a slight DualSense refresh and for the future PS6 DualSense of course. DualSense Edge 2 with far better battery life amongst other little improvements. The project Q meh not for me but with all the comments from fans hungry desperately wanting another PSP handheld, the demand is very much there for one again. The original PSP was a huge success for a first attempt at a handheld at 80mil so they can be very succesful at it. And many people say PS don't take risks on new things and only ever copies others, funny that is
This is good news. Now I can use it properly soon. Think it doesn't count physical games, only digital and Plus games. So if there's a Stars for Spidey2 but you have Spidey2 physically then it won't count. I dunno hope im wrong, either way it's good it's finally coming to our PS5s soon
@RobN no but only because I don't know how to share links via a mobile phone to these comments section, never needed PC or a laptop. A quick Google search never hurt anyone when looking for what you are looking for, it's all there ready for you to read
I'll ask you the same. Do you have source about why Xbox backwards compatibilty is not expensive. If it's cheap in the long run I'd certainly love to read about it and be proven wrong
@Martsmall completely missing my point to my comment by ignoring the costs it takes to develop Xbox backwards compatibilty, hence why even Microsoft themselves don't do it anymore. When there's a 3rd party day one game on GamePass you don't care how much it costs for it to be day one on your GamePass while your gaming and why would you, hence why PS Plus Extra hardly has much day ones because of how expensive a 3rd party day one costs to be on a subscription. You know if I really enjoy a console over the years I'd definitely love to know about it even more with a little research. Yh Sony ain't exactly what you would call a small company but in comparison to Microsoft then yh they are smaller. Although being smaller doesn't necessarily always mean being in 3rd place all the time
@Martsmall a lot of people seem to forget that PS2 had PS1 bc and even the early fat PS3 had both PS1 and PS2 bc but eventually ended up removing PS2 bc from newer PS3 versions for whatever reason leaving only PS1 on PS3. It's when the PS4 released is where Sony had real issues with bc because of how difficult and complicated they made the PS3 sort of shooting themselves in foot. Xbox backwards compatibilty costs huge amounts of money, meaning it would be far easier for Microsoft to achieve what they've done on their end than it would if Sony done the same on their end with huge differences in bank accounts, but when gaming on the Xbox you don't think of how much it costs to develop Xbox bc and why would you
@Cashews always prefered something like Resistance or Space Marine where you can just let loose and fill so many weird creatures full of so many bullets with so many fascinating and different set pieces that makes me wonder as I'm playing. Modern warfare is of course modern and I'm just never fascinated by it at all in a video game. I enjoyed Battlefield 1 (2016) way more than any Modern Warfare because it felt like a super fun fascinating history lesson in a weird sort of way. CoDWW2 (2017) definitely interests me but seems to have reviewed not so well, which has sort of put me off it. Reminds me I need to get back on Boltgun soon, even though its trophies are crap
Given it another thought. It's a win for physical on PS4 and Switch if that's your thing and a win for those that enjoy trophies on PlayStation and might be a less frustraiting platinum overall too with no mp trophies required and thats about it. But yh I ain't spending £40 on release for a lazy cashgrab port, still be waiting for huge sales in late 2024
Hypothetically even if you payed me there's still a good chance I'd say no, depending on how much was being offered of course. I remember I tried a CoD for the very first time via PS Plus a few years ago and all I can remember thinking when playing was meh what's all this fuzz about. Its all so very average if you ask me
Rockstars logic the Nintendo Switch has a 130 mil and the PS4 has 118 mil so let's target those instead and completely ignore latest gen. Lazy money ports
Damn that sucks. No proper PS5, no 60fps?, no remaster and no mp wow. Possibly be £40 or £45 in uk but still no thanks im good. No doubt in 18 months or 2 years it'll be less than £15 in CeX, PS store sale, Amazon deals or even PS Plus Essential/Extra. I've no need to jump all over this and certainly not on release date, no matter how much I enjoyed it originally
@AndyKazama not really gonna play the game ha. I was just joking but thanks either way. Checked out some gameplay earlier. It does seem more like an actual video game sort of a puzzler type rather than tickling mayo jars or touching burritos on a kitchen table
@Cashews meant it as irony. Always thought of ironic and irony were same, get them mixed up. Still made me giggle a little when thought about FF16 not being capable on Switch.
Or maybe Square Enix only want their latest and greatest game to be running on the latest piece of console tech which is obvioisly something Nintendo don't simply offer at the moment and haven't done for quite a while
@Cashews you do realise that one country (Japan) is not the whole picture of success for any game sold or any console sold, its a slice of the bigger picture. Yh sure the Switch is 2nd to none in overall sales worldwide when its been availible on the market far longer than PS5 or Series and even the Switch today in 2023 is still doing incredible numbers. Its worth pointing out PS5 is dominating in America and the whole of Europe with Japan being the only one where the Switch has outsold the PS5 currently or did this escape your narrative somehow or simply didn't know?
@Nem yh there's quite a lot that didn't care for RE7 in first person but for the many that didn't mind the new first person, they was just happy for an RE game returning to its roots again. It was actually scary again but for some it was just to much after being so used to the watered down very mild horror in 4, 5 and 6. Some gamers first RE experience was 4 onwards so you'll sometimes get a few thinking RE isn't scary at all. 7 was great for those who liked horror and was good for PSVR1
Imagine buying a video game called Resident Evil 7 and then saying its to scary to play. I don't think I'll ever understand the logic of some people on this earth
The original RE4 over the shoulder was very rarely ever scary survival horror giving you so much ammo drops for your already full to the brim briefcase and health everywhere for the wave after wave of non scary enemies to deal with, just a very mild tension throughout. Almost repeat every single word for RE5, 6 and 8 and in some cases far worse than the 4th original. Before RE2 remake released I was very sceptical about the over the shoulder it was going with, because before RE2 remake released, all the over the shoulder was only ever used for was in the way more action non scary RE games. Now that I know over the shoulder can actually be scary because of the RE2 remake, it gave me so much hope going forward as a long time RE fan. RE4 remake is a massive improvement over the original
@deathaxe being an all console gamer I'm not really so much aware of what's popular or not on PC. Excuse my not knowing ignorance. Even with the BG3 and Starfield release dates and the Xbox feature parity policy issues, I still think it's overall a little odd BG3 is getting way more popularity on consoles all of a sudden. When I start to think of all the Diablo fans on console wanting BG3 as well it all starts making much more sense
@Hyena_socks @Kevw2006 I know Series S is having some policy issues not having feature parity with Series X. It'll be interesting to see how well it charts given the more popularity it seems to be getting and how well it reviews
Was Baldurs Gate ever this popular before this Baldurs Gate 3. Not dunking on the game at all. I only ever thought of BG as some type of almost niche PC game
So the two most scariest survival horror RE games are at 1 and 2. Makes sense to me but a little surprising at the same time considering how so many say they prefer the action no scares. There's genuine hope now then with those two at the top that RE9 will actually be survival horror again rather than 4, 5, 6 and 8 nonstop action with zero survival horror. Yh I hate no survival horror in RE games, it's the equivalent of a new MGS game or Splinter Cell game releasing with zero stealth
@KundaliniRising333 @ItsBritneyB_tch I made my main character a gorgeous naked blonde with bunny slippers on and ankle socks running around nude with rocket launchers. Absolutely hilarious when you see your naked character design in the story cutscenes. Even made her cars pink haha with pink underglow for giggles. It's ended up feeling like a harley Quinn video game by mistake
When you read online about Xbox diehards saying all PS 1st party games are just movies with hardly any gameplay or that Spidey2 is just a bloated dlc or the PS5 itself and the DualSense are crap and not doing so well. It's just a coping mechanism that's all it is, the reality is opposite of course
Me and a family member swapped a physical game to each other and this Saints Row is the one I've borrowed. Honestly was not expecting to enjoy this given all the criticisms online and all the bad reviews. Having now nearly completed it and going for the plat I have to say its genuinely a fun time, seriously no joke. Bugs are being fixed all the time to improve it. The person I swapped games with platted this SR on release so it was hardly broken. I've enjoyed my time with it enough to want to put the dlc expansion on my PS5 wishlist for a later date when it maybe comes to Plus at some point?
There's a few in there I wouldn't mind grabbing like Robocop and Crew Motorfest. Be working on my never ending backlog instead before Spidey2 and the MGS collection completely takes over my PS5
@Ralizah there's now been trophies available on PS consoles longer than when they wasn't a thing and now it just feels genuinly strange to me these days when I'm not thinking or working towards the next trophy. First of all of course the game comes first as to whether or not its for me, then checking the trophies comes afterwards. Trophies are just an added incentive, challenge or added option to the whole gaming experience and sometimes an added sense of accomplishment when you've 100% all the ideas that the devs tried to come up with on their game. Also if really enjoying a particular game it makes me want to 100% the trophies even more and potentially giving me way more gaming time in the game I'm really enjoying

Even with the BG3 and Starfield release dates and the Xbox feature parity policy issues, I still think it's overall a little odd BG3 is getting way more popularity on consoles all of a sudden. When I start to think of all the Diablo fans on console wanting BG3 as well it all starts making much more sense

@Hyena_socks @Kevw2006 I know Series S is having some policy issues not having feature parity with Series X. It'll be interesting to see how well it charts given the more popularity it seems to be getting and how well it reviews
Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Dev Larian Studios Has No Interest in Being Acquired
Was Baldurs Gate ever this popular before this Baldurs Gate 3. Not dunking on the game at all. I only ever thought of BG as some type of almost niche PC game
Re: Resident Evil 2 PS5, PS4 Remake Is Now the Series' Best-Selling Game
So the two most scariest survival horror RE games are at 1 and 2. Makes sense to me but a little surprising at the same time considering how so many say they prefer the action no scares. There's genuine hope now then with those two at the top that RE9 will actually be survival horror again rather than 4, 5, 6 and 8 nonstop action with zero survival horror. Yh I hate no survival horror in RE games, it's the equivalent of a new MGS game or Splinter Cell game releasing with zero stealth
Re: Saints Row Gets Another Huge Update Ahead of Third and Final Expansion
@KundaliniRising333 @ItsBritneyB_tch I made my main character a gorgeous naked blonde with bunny slippers on and ankle socks running around nude with rocket launchers. Absolutely hilarious when you see your naked character design in the story cutscenes. Even made her cars pink haha with pink underglow for giggles. It's ended up feeling like a harley Quinn video game by mistake
Re: June 2023 Circana: PS5 Posts Best PlayStation Results in 15 Years
When you read online about Xbox diehards saying all PS 1st party games are just movies with hardly any gameplay or that Spidey2 is just a bloated dlc or the PS5 itself and the DualSense are crap and not doing so well. It's just a coping mechanism that's all it is, the reality is opposite of course
Re: Saints Row Gets Another Huge Update Ahead of Third and Final Expansion
Me and a family member swapped a physical game to each other and this Saints Row is the one I've borrowed. Honestly was not expecting to enjoy this given all the criticisms online and all the bad reviews. Having now nearly completed it and going for the plat I have to say its genuinely a fun time, seriously no joke. Bugs are being fixed all the time to improve it. The person I swapped games with platted this SR on release so it was hardly broken. I've enjoyed my time with it enough to want to put the dlc expansion on my PS5 wishlist for a later date when it maybe comes to Plus at some point?
Re: Upcoming PS5, PS4 Games for August and September 2023
There's a few in there I wouldn't mind grabbing like Robocop and Crew Motorfest. Be working on my never ending backlog instead before Spidey2 and the MGS collection completely takes over my PS5
Re: PS5 Sales Absolutely Explode in the UK Following Price Cut
@Ralizah there's now been trophies available on PS consoles longer than when they wasn't a thing and now it just feels genuinly strange to me these days when I'm not thinking or working towards the next trophy. First of all of course the game comes first as to whether or not its for me, then checking the trophies comes afterwards. Trophies are just an added incentive, challenge or added option to the whole gaming experience and sometimes an added sense of accomplishment when you've 100% all the ideas that the devs tried to come up with on their game. Also if really enjoying a particular game it makes me want to 100% the trophies even more and potentially giving me way more gaming time in the game I'm really enjoying
