I normally like to buy the new CoD every year, but this one just feels like glorified DLC, so I’ll be giving it a miss or at least wait for it to be on sale.
I played the campaign and haven’t put it on since. I knew going in that I was going to treat it like a single-player experience. I might play through it with my brother when he decides to play it.
I’m really looking forward to this. Terminator Resistance was better than all the reviews made it out to be and this looks like it’s going to as good, if not better than that.
I am currently in the middle of Homefront: The Revolution. I’m liking it quite a lot. I’m a big fan of the Far Cry gameplay formula and this replicates it quite well. Also playing Puzzle Quest 3 on the side.
@Wilforce But if the reviewer didn’t enjoy the co-op then it did detract from the overall experience for him.
I don’t think the score here matters too much. If you’re a fan of Sonic’s 2D outings then you know what to expect going in and you know if you’re going to enjoy it or not.
Downloading now! I’m really looking forward to this, but a part of me thinks that because it’s obviously set in New York again there’s not a lot that can be done to make it that much of an evolution over the previous two games. This is Insomniac we’re talking about though, so I’m sure to be proven wrong.
@JAMes-BroWWWn well, you can’t really comment on their PS5 releases until after the generation ends. Uncharted 4 didn’t come out until 2016 and the PS4 was released in 2013. Who knows how many games they’ll make before the PS6 comes out.
@ShogunRok It’s the same section, but I’m unable to even progress to the camera sequence because the game won’t acknowledge that I’ve scanned what it wants me to scan. I’m currently downloading the update, so I’m really hoping that I’ll be pleasantly surprised.
Me and my brothers were terrible with names of Final Fantasy characters. We pronounced “Cait Sith” as “St Sith” and “Seifer” from Final Fantasy VIII as “Sefire”.
I gave it a 9, despite not being able to play it at the moment.
Anyone else hit a bug on the mission “You Know My Name”? I get on the sniper rifle and then the game tells me to scan several things, but it won’t let me do it, which means I’m unable to continue.
Well I would be playing Cyberpunk 2077, but I’ve hit a bug during one of the DLC missions that means I can’t progress. Gonna have to wait for a patch I guess. I shall therefore be playing One Piece Odyssey. Might even finish it by tomorrow evening.
“You need to be online to access the remainder of Gran Turismo Sport’s features, such as its single player campaign, photography mode, and – it should go without saying – online multiplayer. As such, while you can technically play Gran Turismo Sport offline, you’re essentially getting a tenth or so of the package. It’s better to think of this title as online-only, similar to Destiny 2 and Overwatch.”
Seems like it won’t be worth playing once it goes offline. I’m sure most people have moved onto Gran Turismo 7 by now.
@MattBoothDev If I read your comment before I played Dead Island 2 I’d agree with you, but that game turned out to be fantastic and that was passed between several developers. That gives me hope that this could still be good… if it ever comes out that is!
I’ve just hit a known bug in one of the main missions of Phantom Liberty, “You Know My Name”. I’ve reached a point where it won’t let me progress. A bit concerned that I don’t see a fix for it in the patch notes.
I do like Genshin Impact, but I feel the free-to-play mechanics get in the way of my enjoyment of it. Sell it for £50 or £60 as a full game without any of free-to-play faff and I’d buy it straight away.
@3Above I only bought it because I watched and really enjoyed the Netflix show. I’m liking it quite a lot. Although it is hard to follow sometimes because it appears to take place quite far into the anime, so there are places and characters that I don’t know and the game obviously assumes you know who they are.
@UltimateOtaku91 I think you might be remembering the first game through rose tinted glasses. I do agree that this does look like it could run on PS4 though, but so could their other RE Engine powered games and they still look amazing.

Re: Max Payne 1 + 2 Remake Seems to Be Remedy's Next Big Release
Be interesting to see if they connect the Max Payne games to Alan Wake and Control somehow.
Re: RoboCop: Rogue City (PS5) - A Servicable Shooter for Nostalgia Enthusiasts
I’m enjoying it so far. The shooting is really satisfying.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 500
I will be carrying on with Alan Wake II. Got 2 weeks off after today and I cannot wait to spend it gaming.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Alan Wake 2?
I’m playing it. I’m enjoying it, but I don’t see how it got 10/10.
Re: Spider-Man 2 Is Already Doing an Amazing Job of Keeping People Playing on PS5
I found every activity to be enjoyable, so I got the plat.
Re: PS1-Style Horror Crow Country Is Coming to PS5, PS4, Creepy Demo Out Now
I found the demo to be too clunky, but that might be part of the charm for some people.

Spider-Man 2 of course!
Re: Metal Gear Solid's First-Ever Trophy List Has Been Revealed
Metal Gear Solid trophies? It can’t be!
Re: PS Studios Celebrate the Launch of Marvel's Spider-Man 2 with Awesome Art
This just convinces me that we need a PlayStation All-Stars sequel!
Re: Poll: Do You Still Play Diablo 4?
I played the campaign and haven’t put it on since. I knew going in that I was going to treat it like a single-player experience. I might play through it with my brother when he decides to play it.
Re: Rewrite Fictional History in The Walking Dead: Destinies on PS5, PS4
I’m slightly interested in this. I even enjoyed The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct, so there is a chance I could like this… however slim.
Re: 'Gollum-Like' King Kong Game Is Getting Torn to Shreds Online
@Futureshark Can you imagine? A month that just includes these two games.
Re: 'Gollum-Like' King Kong Game Is Getting Torn to Shreds Online
@BobaTheFett At least the Hellboy game is relatively cheap and looks like the developers made an effort.
Re: Skipping RoboCop: Rogue City on PS5? You're Going to Need a New Plan
I’m really looking forward to this. Terminator Resistance was better than all the reviews made it out to be and this looks like it’s going to as good, if not better than that.
Re: Persona 5 Tactica Aims to Keep You Very Busy Outside the Main Story
@KilloWertz Do yourself a favour and play Persona 5 Royal!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 497
Cyberpunk 2077 for me. Hopefully going to finish Phantom Liberty this evening! Such an amazing game.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty?
@gipsojo Yeah, my game bugged. The new update sorted it.
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.01 Out Now on PS5, Addresses PS5 Save Corruption, Improves Performance, and More
@ShogunRok Not only am I able to progress, but I also unlocked several trophies for things I’ve not done upon loading the game, so bonus!

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.01 Expected to Drop Tomorrow, Addressing PS5 Save Corruption and More
I really hope this fixes the issue I’ve been having. I’ve been itching to carry on with this.

It’s on fung-ice.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 496
Well I would be playing Cyberpunk 2077, but I’ve hit a bug during one of the DLC missions that means I can’t progress. Gonna have to wait for a patch I guess. I shall therefore be playing One Piece Odyssey. Might even finish it by tomorrow evening.
Re: PS5's Knights of the Old Republic Remake Is Being Wiped from the Internet
I’m glad to see there’s still hope. I never did play the original.
Re: Chequered Flag for Gran Turismo Sport as Online Services Shut Down in January 2024
This is from a Push Square article…
“You need to be online to access the remainder of Gran Turismo Sport’s features, such as its single player campaign, photography mode, and – it should go without saying – online multiplayer. As such, while you can technically play Gran Turismo Sport offline, you’re essentially getting a tenth or so of the package.

Re: Cyberpunk 2077 Patch 2.01 Announced, Should Fix Game-Breaking Save Corruption Bug on PS5
I’ve just hit a known bug in one of the main missions of Phantom Liberty, “You Know My Name”. I’ve reached a point where it won’t let me progress. A bit concerned that I don’t see a fix for it in the patch notes.
Re: PS5's Console Exclusive Knights of the Old Republic Remake Is Being Nuked from the Internet
At least there’s still Star Wars Outlaws to look forward to.
Re: Sword Art Online: Last Recollection Snags a Playable Demo, Out Now on PS5, PS4
@RocelosGVN I’m playing One Piece Odyssey at the moment and the difference in quality between that and this is staggering.
Re: Hellboy Web of Wyrd Hit with Small Delay on PS5, PS4
Not heard much about this. Didn’t even realise it had a release date!
Re: Alan Wake 2 Has a Performance Mode on PS5, But It's Been Built as a '30FPS Experience'
I don’t have an issue with 30 FPS at all. Pretty sure I’m currently playing Cyberpunk 2077 at 30 FPS and that feels pretty smooth to me.
Re: Preview: Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail Dev Has Quietly Become a PS5, PS4 Powerhouse
I do like Genshin Impact, but I feel the free-to-play mechanics get in the way of my enjoyment of it. Sell it for £50 or £60 as a full game without any of free-to-play faff and I’d buy it straight away.
Re: Sword Art Online: Last Recollection Snags a Playable Demo, Out Now on PS5, PS4
I really want to like these games, but I find them quite hard to get into. I find that they throw quite a lot of information at you.

Going to finish up the Separate Ways Resident evil 4 Remake DLC, then continue with my One Piece Odyssey playthrough.
Re: New Dragon's Dogma 2 Dazzles in Raw PS5 Gameplay Demos

Re: Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy Enters the Courtroom in January 2024
Can’t wait. Loved playing through the other games on PS4.
Re: Swery65 and Suda51 Join Forces with Hack and Slash Action Game Hotel Barcelona
@__jamiie Oh that’s a shame. I guess I’ll just have to play through it on Switch.
Re: Swery65 and Suda51 Join Forces with Hack and Slash Action Game Hotel Barcelona
Looks good. The map in the bottom right of the screen reminds me of Odin Sphere Leifthrasir.
On a side note, I wonder if Deadly Premonition 2 will ever see a PS5 release.
Re: Nine Minutes of Dragon's Dogma 2 Gameplay Is Enough to Make You Drool
I still have the first game in my backlog, but I’m still looking forward to this. Everything Capcom releases recently is gold.
Re: 20 More PS Plus Extra, Premium Games Available to Download Now
Nice! Can’t wait to try out 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, once I’m done with One Piece Odyssey.
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man 2 Has Events Where You Encounter the Other Spidey Fighting Crime
That’s pretty cool, but the real crime is that this doesn’t have 2 player co-op!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 494
I’m going to be finishing Immortals of Aveum. Took a bit to click with me, but I ended up playing it all day yesterday and really got into it.
