Luckily in this case we know what the gameplay is. Assassin's Creed. You're a viking with a...hidden blade...I would be super into this if they cut out the silly assassin parts.
A hundred times Ape Escape! The trilogy is why I largely still own a PS2. Ape Escape Move tugged on my heart strings but being on rails was a real letdown.
It says Unreal but the visuals look very Unity. Another uninspired souls-like on Steam, might as well make a pixelated Metroidvania while they're at it.
Too bad but the continued support from the devs is very much appreciated. Although at this point I'm more excited to see where the future of this franchise goes.
Who expected this to end with a giant ghost boss battle followed by a Sephiroth boss battle?! What a surprise, and here I thought the highway robot was the last boss. This section was lacking spoilers 😎👍
I wonder if the English VAs were told to simply read a script with no context, their delivery is baffling at times. Reminds of Sonic Adventure's voice acting, maybe a touch better 😉
Imagine if Bethesda turns everything around like No Man's Sky. I mean, highly unlikely, but could you imagine? Years of support and patching in new features.
My younger siblings are a testament to kids growing up with Fortnite, mobile games and the PS3/360 era. I'm happy with where I landed. With a SNES controller in my baby-hands 😆
I honestly hope they leave RE4 alone. Following the trend of these remakes they'd change Leon and the other voice actors, change his dialogue (probably less one-liners), and potentially remove Mercenaries or other side-games.
@ShogunRok The demo certainly pleased in this regard, but does the full game seem to retain a majority of the original enemies? There are some wacky designs I would love to see return in this.
Appreciate the response. That's a bummer for sure, I have a feeling I'll best enjoy a playthrough of this remake before I revisit the original version on my PS3.
@LiamCroft When you say Nemesis mainly appears for boss and chase sequences, are the chase sequences more like the encounter in the demo or just running down corridors?
Perhaps the logic is make an obscure claim that seems somewhat reasonable and spread it as a rumor/leak so news sites that don't fact check anything also spread the word and then it's assumed to be factual. At that point, if it gets mass attention online maybe higher-ups take notice and make a move to kickstart the series again. Or perhaps it's just lying for the sake of discussing What If scenarios.
Turns out the whole FF7 plot takes place inside Midgar! Who could have seen this coming? 😆 But real talk, very interested to see how the ending of this will feel like a complete package, no doubt these new 'plot elements' will aid this as well.
There are two things that will make me a Day One buyer. More backwards compatibility aside from just PS4 (which is looking like a big no, especially with PS Now), and some amazing launch exclusives, such as Demons Souls Remake.
Classic Microsoft. Gotta be first to the stage to get the attention they can. Sony is sitting behind a desk smiling because they know once their announcement drops so too will the Microsoft stocks 😆
This has to be one of the most open ended and both company and community-supportive creation tools available. Really cool they are taking it seriously.
It sounds like this should have been a single-player minigame where you're always the Mastermind and foil increasingly smart AI survivors. Oh well, the best part of this mode is it's a bonus to a stellar campaign mode.
I am a big Way of the Samurai fan and I hope this game hints that there could be more in the pipeline for this series. But sadly the design and camera perspective in this are a hard pass for me 😔
I truly wish Kakarot wasn't so abysmal. Beautiful character models can't make up for a boring world, useless dialogue, and Goku's uh...'questionable' means of fishing.
PS5 has two things that will get me to be a buyer. Amazing exclusive launch titles that won't go to PC, or full backwards compatibility. I love my old PS2 and PS3 systems but I'd be fine cutting down on that shelf space they take up too.
This is unfortunate, I was most concerned with how they'd handle combat and the open map, seeing as we got a previous lacklustre One Piece game with the same issues.
@Flaming_Kaiser I think it did fine as far as sales, I assume it was the closing of Visceral. But either way I get it, 1 and 2 are legendary and haven't aged a day.

Re: Daymare: 1998 - A Budget Passion Project That Gets Just Enough Right
Sounds surprisingly neat overall, but not for the $40 it's retailing for in the US 😕

@ShogunRok Great to hear, appreciate the reply!

Re: Poll: Did You Buy Persona 5 Royal?
Definitely on the buy list! Unfortunately falls too close to FF7 and RE3 so I gotta put it on hold 😕
Re: Reminder: Persona 5 Royal Players Can Claim Huge DLC Bundle for Free
@Ryall Excellent point, Monster Hunter used the same tactic on my poor wallet...
Re: Reminder: Persona 5 Royal Players Can Claim Huge DLC Bundle for Free
@Rob_230 Really?! Wow that's crazy. So much content.
Re: Reminder: Persona 5 Royal Players Can Claim Huge DLC Bundle for Free
Surprising they wouldn't just...include this. In a full priced re-release.

Re: There's a New Gundam Game Out Now on PS4, By the Way
And now my comment is outdated, PvE patched in! It just earned a redownload on my console.
Re: PlayStation Fans Fidgety as Control, The Last Guardian Devs Pick Epic Over Sony
Oop the fidgets are setting in! I'm spinning!
Re: Sony Extends PSN Download Speed Restrictions to the US
Eh, just putting the PS4 into rest mode for my big downloads then. No worries.

Re: One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 Shows Off Every Character in New Special Moves Trailer
@FullbringIchigo Well done, perfect picture! 😆
Re: Talking Point: Why Isn't Sony Saying More About PS5?
Classic Microsoft. Gotta be first to the stage to get the attention they can. Sony is sitting behind a desk smiling because they know once their announcement drops so too will the Microsoft stocks 😆
Re: One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 Shows Off Every Character in New Special Moves Trailer
And my all time favorite Bartolomeo finally made the cut! I'm sold!
Re: Resident Evil 3 Demo Confirmed for Thursday, Resistance Beta a Week After
I can't wait for soul crushing anxiety! This game will remove years from my life but I'll end up liking it anyway 😆

This has to be one of the most open ended and both company and community-supportive creation tools available. Really cool they are taking it seriously.
Re: Resident Evil 3's Nemesis Can Enter Safe Rooms, Spiders Will Return
@Deadlyblack For sure, it's just there was that one 'safe' spot which became unsafe later. But the other save rooms were still safe.
Re: Resident Evil 3's Nemesis Can Enter Safe Rooms, Spiders Will Return
Mr. X could enter the main hall in the RE2 Remake which also contained a typewriter, so not technically the first in franchise history?

"Slytherin to the comments below." Brilliantly written and a good shout-out to the best house!
Re: Death Stranding Is No Longer a PS4 Exclusive from 2nd June
I hope the modding community has a hayday with this, maybe it'll end up a fun game 😉😆

Re: Facebook Kills Chances of Sly Cooper Sequel from Sanzaru Games with Acquisition
Thieves in Time was a good send-off. Too bad that show never panned out? At least I think it was cancelled...
Re: Hands On: Resident Evil Resistance Is a Fun Enough Multiplayer Distraction
It sounds like this should have been a single-player minigame where you're always the Mastermind and foil increasingly smart AI survivors. Oh well, the best part of this mode is it's a bonus to a stellar campaign mode.

Re: No Man's Sky Gets Living Ships in Latest Major Update on PS4
I wonder if the ship can have a sort of legs that would prevent the need to burn fuel for taking off perhaps?
Re: SnowRunner Takes Off-Roading to Treacherous Tundras on PS4 This April

Re: Rumour: Sony Paying More for Top Quality Cooling System in PS5
This is welcome news, as much as I enjoy my PS4 Pro sounding like a airline taking flight when playing Monster Hunter.
Re: Devil May Cry 5 Becomes Best-Selling Entry in the Series at 3.1 Million Units
To celebrate, maybe add Vergil and more costumes as unlocks? Please Capcom?
Re: Monster Hunter World: Iceborne Introduces Raging Brachydios and Furious Rajang in March
@Athrum Yes, they both are. Similar logic to Savage Deviljho, though I felt Jho took quite the chill pill compared to older games.
Re: Monster Hunter World: Iceborne Introduces Raging Brachydios and Furious Rajang in March
Bummer, I was really hoping for sand barioth or green (dare I say Lucent) nargacuga. Could still happen eventually!
Re: The Division 2 Reaches Bargain Bin Price of $2.99 on PlayStation Store
@LiamCroft Thanks for the heads up! Definitely downloading this for that low entry fee.

Re: Multiple Kingdom Hearts Games Now in Development, One 'Coming Surprisingly Soon'
@Ichiban Your profile picture and the beauty of that title...I'm smitten.
Re: Multiple Kingdom Hearts Games Now in Development, One 'Coming Surprisingly Soon'
@Rob_230 Couldn't agree more, as someone else who has followed this series between consoles, I can agree KH3 was too underwhelming.
Re: Hands On: Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot Is Fun, But It's Got So Many Problems

Re: EA Gives Mass Effect Fans Hope with Confirmation of 'Exciting Remasters' Coming Soon
@Flaming_Kaiser I get it, it's heavily flawed but when I played co-op with a bud we had a great time.
