I remember everyone at my office back in 2016 was playing this. It was a great time that went on for about a good 2 years. After putting in that many hours, I personally don't see myself EVER going back to this game.
As a PSVR2 owner thirsty for software, I've been highly anticipating this one since I tried the demo. I'm happy to see the overall experience delivered.
Forbidden West was definitely the game to buy for anyone who purchased a PS5 in 2022. I like the direction the game took the series. Its not the instant classic the 1st one was, but its a solid 8/10 for me.
I love this game, its better than part 1 in every way for me personally. I'm not sure why I get so much satisfaction when I see other gamers trashing it online tho. I guess everyone really wanted that safe "Adventures of Joel & Ellie" sequel they didn't get LOL.
@UltimateOtaku91 I agree with your point as its just another day in business, but using Microsoft's Studio/Dev mgmt is not the best example. Just saying.
I already platinumed RE4 Remake but im going for another run. I can't put it down just yet. Once Im done im either gonna start this or Burning Shores. Im not sure which one yet.
I used to be real good at fighting games, but it takes way too much time to master these days. I'll still hop on a few like Smash, Tekken, MK, or SF as a casual for fun.
@Wheatly This game is clearly timestamped. Its a novelty for gamers who played Chrono Trigger when it was new, or for gamers who appreciated that game. With that said, its a 6/10 game for me personally. The stories are fun, but the gameplay is very light. Very novelty experience for dedicated JRPG fans.
@MaccaMUFC LMAO 🤣 thanks for sharing. I think since i'm not interested, ill just vote for not interested instead. I promise you, my vote won't take away from your enjoyment or anyone else's.
@WallyWest Based on Mark Cerny's presentation, there was some compression techniques that the PS5's SSD can use to shrink the file size. I think the most notable size difference is Control UE on PS5 compared to PS4.
RE 2002, the Metro games, and Kingdom Come are the biggest losses here. I'm not crazy about Kingdom Come but its a good game to play on a service like this.
@OrtadragoonX I can't disagree with the UBISOFT elements LOL. I also find linear games more refreshing these days, but it would've taken away from the side quest structure, which was the game's biggest strength for me personally.
@grapetrap i feel this was probably too "left field" for critics. People expected this to be an Evil Within FPS, but instead got a Supernatural Yakuza-like FPS. SONY fans hit it with the "Microsoft/Zenimax" tax. Sometimes its good to disconnect from "gaming politics" and just have fun and play some damn games.

Re: PS5 Performance Patch for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Out Now
@FatalBubbles Was the platinum as annoying as they first game's? The databank was the worst.
Re: Mortal Kombat 1 Announced for PS5, Out 19th September
Kolor me impressed.
Re: April 2023 Circana: PS5 Locked in Fierce Battle with Nintendo Switch
TOTK is a good reason to blow dust off THAT hybrid console.

Re: PlayStation Showcase Finally Announced for 24th May
Can't wait. Hoping we get some cool surprises.
Re: Rumour: Trashed FPS Crime Boss: Rockay City's PS5 Release Date Clashes with Final Fantasy 16
Decisions, decisions. I'd get FF16 if Danny Trejo was on it.
Re: Mini Review: Slipstream (PS4) - OutRun 2022 Makes a Real Splash Wave
Games like this made me love gaming as an 80's/90's kid.
Re: Best Arcade Games on PS5
@Ashkorsair Great choice, but its not a native PS5 game.
Re: Humanity (PS5) - PS Plus Puzzler Is an Unusual But Enthralling Journey
As a PSVR2 owner thirsty for software, I've been highly anticipating this one since I tried the demo. I'm happy to see the overall experience delivered.
Re: Mini Review: Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order (PS5) - A Marginal Upgrade on Backwards Compatibility
In my experience, the PS4 version was very blurry in comparison to the PS5 version. This is a worthy upgrade.
Re: After Transformative Gran Turismo 7 Update, F1 23 Will Not Support PSVR2
Not a good look for the platform.
Re: Poll: What's the Best PlayStation Startup Sequence?
PS1 is iconic, and PS2 is up there too.
Re: Preview: Street Fighter 6 PS5, PS4 Chucks the Kitchen Sink At Fans Who Complained About the Previous Game
@FenIsMightier I liked SFV at launch too. The lack of "projectile" characters gave it a SF3 feel, which is my fav 2D fighter of all time.
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Has Become One of PS5's Best-Selling Games
Forbidden West was definitely the game to buy for anyone who purchased a PS5 in 2022. I like the direction the game took the series. Its not the instant classic the 1st one was, but its a solid 8/10 for me.

Re: Former PlayStation Boss Saddened by PixelOpus Studio Closure
@UltimateOtaku91 I agree with your point as its just another day in business, but using Microsoft's Studio/Dev mgmt is not the best example. Just saying.
Re: Concrete Genie Developer PixelOpus Is Shutting Down
Concrete Genie was cool. There was potential for something bigger & better.
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered Finally Gets Standalone Release on PS5
From a technical perspective, one of the best games to play on the 5.
Re: Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons Cleans the Streets on PS5, PS4 This Summer
@Green-Bandit SOR4 is still the king of beatemups. Im still accidentally learning new combos on that.
Re: Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons Cleans the Streets on PS5, PS4 This Summer
@wiiware that would be dope. A grittier version of RCG's artstyle would work better.
Re: PS Plus Helps Put Tchia in One Million Players' Hands
I need to finish this. Its a good time.
Re: Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons Cleans the Streets on PS5, PS4 This Summer
Ill be checkin this out, but i dont like how the art is a blatent Shredder's Revenge ripoff.
Re: UK's Activision Buyout Block Prevents Microsoft from Trying Again for 10 Years
10 years is plenty of time for Microsoft to create its own Call of Duty competitor.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Star Wars Jedi: Survivor?
I already platinumed RE4 Remake but im going for another run. I can't put it down just yet. Once Im done im either gonna start this or Burning Shores. Im not sure which one yet.
Re: Even Fighting Game Legends Can't Beat Street Fighter 6's Hardest Difficulty
I used to be real good at fighting games, but it takes way too much time to master these days. I'll still hop on a few like Smash, Tekken, MK, or SF as a casual for fun.
Re: Microsoft Dealt Major Blow as UK Blocks Activision Buyout
I'm just happy Crash isn't locked on Microsoft 👍
Re: Live A Live (PS5) - 90s JRPG Is Still Amazingly Unique All These Years Later
Id also recommended Octopath over LAL.

I will get this digitally then 👍

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Dead Island 2?
@MaccaMUFC As someone who voted not interested, I just wanted to see where the PushSquare community stands on this game. Its not a crime right?
Re: Atari Has Acquired the Rights to One of PS1's Worst Ever Games
I mean, they brought back Shaq-Fu and Devil May Cry 2 keeps getting remastered every generation. Anything is possible and fair at this point.

Re: Star Wars Jedi: Survivor's PS5 File Size Is Ridiculous
@Grumblevolcano Well we don't really know that. Maybe the file size would've been 25% bigger on a mechanical HDD.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores?
I'm going to buy this as soon as I get the RE4 platinum (1 playthrough left!)
Re: Best Platformers on PS4
Great list. I feel Steamworld Dig 2 & Strider 2014 deserve a nod on here.

@OrtadragoonX I can't disagree with the UBISOFT elements LOL. I also find linear games more refreshing these days, but it would've taken away from the side quest structure, which was the game's biggest strength for me personally.
Re: Preview: Trine 5 Takes You on the Series' Longest Adventure Yet on PS5, PS4
@wiiware @GoodGame Im gonna have to check out Trine 4 bc i loved the 1st 2. Thanks!

Re: Ghostwire: Tokyo's Big PS5 Update Is Out Now, Adds New Content
I enjoyed this game more than most. Its the most alive a dead city ever felt. I will definitely be revisiting this soon.
Re: Preview: Trine 5 Takes You on the Series' Longest Adventure Yet on PS5, PS4
@GoodGame I skipped 3 & 4. Safe to assume 4 was a return to form?
Re: Konami Employee Charged with Attempted Murder After Attacking Boss with Fire Extinguisher
