Generation zero is not a bad game nowadays

I just don't see the point, it's not small enough to take around with you, plus it needs to be on the same wifi and the price is ridiculous for something with such basic functionality. Anyone with a tablet or a decent size phone can replicate the experience without spending a penny and not be tied to the same wifi connection. I often plug my phone into a monitor at work and using the wifi and an old dualshock 4 it's better than this thing in every way.

@GamingFan4Lyf I always thought Sony were at their best when they were competing, now it's feels like they're just cruising off the ps4's success.

@naruball it's not a matter of price, so much as a matter of timing, everyone was uncertain of the global economy at launch and the sales figures for psvr2 suggest most think it is too expensive. Never mind the fact that it's a peripheral that cost more than the system, it just doesn't look good, especially when there was talk about how it being wired could keep cost down, imagine how much it would of cost if there was a battery in that thing.

You can tell Sony are leading this console generation by a wide margin, their pricing for vr, pro controllers and now this is just so out of touch with reality.

Such a shame, the world, characters, visuals, lore, sound, all spot on, the gameplay next to non existent. If ever a sequel should of been green lit the order 1886 was it.

Simply, the game requires too much work to get anywhere near a worthwhile game, it would be far more worth your time to learn a more universal game engine and make a career of it than this fenced off eco system.

No ps4 to ps5 save transfer, what a massive shame, there's far too many other games to be played instead of starting all over again.

@WallyWest Oh dear, my grasp of time is slipping as I get older, could of sworn it came out in 2021.

It's strange that they've spent years adding stuff to the game that was present in the first one, it would of been a far more enjoyable game if it was all there from the start.

Surely a golf game should be able to do 60fps without the resolution taking a hit. The graphics are good but they're hardly pushing the boundaries.

Cant wait to play this, these guys can do no wrong in my opinion.

Why Studio Japan got the bullet but media molecule has been allowed to flounder this long is the biggest mystery

The thing I'm learning over the last couple of weeks is the ones who are shrieking are the insane minority who have to threaten and intimidate because they clearly have no solid argument, the ones who shout about hate and violence are the ones guilty of it and have lost any sympathy I might of had for them. Its good to see the games they target are selling well despite the vitriol they spew.

Due to real world events and the way some acted over hogwarts legacy, I got a sneaking suspicion that the only way I'll know what score this game truly deserves is by playing it myself.

@Shepherd_Tallon Sorry to hear that, I did report the spoilers several times but I guess the mods were asleep? What I don't understand is how they were eventually banned but then able to come straight back and carry on posting spoilers.

@dark_knightmare2 Yeah it's a shame for the players who have had it spoilt, clearly this person is on "that side" and not realising or caring that they are going to encourage hate towards them which I thought was the whole reason why they were against the game in the first place, this whole situation has exposed the group to be nothing more than an insane hate filled minority that should be ignored.

@roe Especially when developers receive death threats and intimidation and it makes all the news cycles, what could possibly be the difference? Harassment is harassment.

Ps, some cretin has posted spoilers down the bottom of the comments, even gone as far as to tag people in them. Ive reported them but don't know how long it'll take to have them removed, luckily I didn't read it fully and asked someone I was with who has no intrest to confirm my suspicions.

Looks like this game could be surprisingly decent considering the development hell it's been in for ten odd years.

Any sort of new idea is welcome in this world of generic by the numbers, identikit games.

I'm buying it on ps5 and on my steam deck then I can play it on break at work as well.

Animal well looks really interesting and the graphics are gorgeous.

The problem isn't the amount of time he took with his speach, it's the amount of time he took from other people who are also part of the show.

That list just reminds me of how bad this year has been for gaming, after Elden ring I'm struggling to pick 4 other games.

My ps plus runs out today so this is ideal for me, now I have to decide which tier to get.

@tallythwack I feel totally under powered, can't chop a flimsy wooden gate out the way , bad guys ignore my hits, can get killed by worms, can't jump up waist high ledges instead got to do some samey freeze the chain puzzle, crawling under a low beam or jumping up a ledge every 30 seconds for no apparent reason, can't do basic stuff "cause magic" Not to mention all the stuff I can't do in game like jump 15 foot in the air to attack or chop obstacles down that Kratos then does at will in cutscenes.
Am I not a God? Because I don't feel like one. At no point do I feel capable of F'in someone up unless the cutscene does it for me. Also, these characters really shouldn't have an American accent, why does Thor say *****? None of it feels authentic.
Its no where near a bad game, its excellent, but in all the wrong areas for me.

@Kang81 I thought I was the only one, loved GOW 2018 l but I'm just not enjoying Ragnarok.

Does it make it fun to play?

Thank god, Eminem is the worst

Somethings been bugging me about this game ( and the last) and I now realise what it is, the puzzles completely destroy the illusion of being a god. Theres a wooden gate that needs opening, I'm playing as a powerful god, with an axe but rather than smash it down, like kratos does with much sturdier structures in cut scenes, when it suits, I have to mess with pulleys and levers. Or that ledge just above head height? could easily reach up and grab it or spend five minutes lowering the block. The guy leaps twenty feet in the air when taking down a dragon but 10 foot is too high to climb up? It's inconsistent, what are Kratos' powers exactly, he's a superhero when he needs to be then he's Nathan drake between bosses. Little lizards can hurt him but getting his face smashed into the ground from a 50 foot drop seems like an annoyance. It's a great game and I'm enjoying it but the swing from all powerful to everyman is jarring.

Why bundle 2 games together then compare their sales figures to a single game? I don't know what that's supposed to prove.

Im joining Twitter because Elon bought it.

I bought a ps5 for a next gen experience, it wasn't cheap and 60fps doesn't seem an unreasonable request. We were told these machines will do this and that and now it seems like all we're getting is cross gen releases.

Ridiculous price, Sony really have become completely detached from their customers

Was genuinely going give this a miss when I heard they wanted my number but now I'm going to reconsider.

Maybe they stopped clapping first and it was off to the gulag?

Probably there to get used to God of war before sony makes them do a remake of god of war 2018.

This all stinks of a company thats lost its nerve, constantly relying on remakes, remasters and the same I.Ps over and over.

For the love of all that is holy! Just give us a burnout 2 remake! Pure arcade racing with 4k 60fps crashes, dualsense support and modern particle effects. Why is EA so reluctant to acknowledge the Burnout series? They're just leaving money on the table at this point.

Poor Tom Clancy, look what they've done to my boy!

Oh god a crunch controversy, how very 2020.

Ahh Helldivers, now that was a blast, the amount of times I would shoot a team mate who had kept shooting me just before extraction and watch, laughing, as I was lifted off the planet and he was bleeding out on the ground, good times, good times.

Hopefully this one will tidy up some of the loose ends from the previous one. I did enjoy the gameplay but the menus, character models and general aesthetic were all very early ps4 and had a whiff of double A title about them.

Chivalry 2 is a blast on ps5 and still has plenty of people playing it now, not to mention constant updates. Mordhau will have it's work cut out to top it.

Looks good and nice to see a new concept in a game pay off.

Colin was right!

This whole service seems to be a reluctant compromise rather than a fully supported product.

It does look amazing, to say photo realistic wouldn't be an exaggeration, it's just a shame that graphics are way down my list of what makes a good game. Whilst I enjoyed the last of us 1 immensely it was never the graphics that did it for me, they were just the icing on the already delicious cake, and for that reason I'll save my money for something else, like a delicious cake.
