I am STILL slowly working my way through Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart, just completed planet 8. Might also play some It Takes Two with the better half for some trophy cleanup.

Happy gaming everyone.

Well that sucks. It would be nice to get something official from Sony if true.

@Goat_FromBOTW Thank you, check out the album if you like, Emptiness - Nothing But The Whole.

From the original trailer I was expecting this to be similar to a point-n-click adventure game. Pleasantly surprised to see third-person movement and mechanics. Animations have a bit of jank to them but they have alot of time to polish this up.

There sure are a ton of language options for such a small indie team. I’ve watched the video of someone start up the pre-load and clearly a ton of localization work has been put in with all the language choices.

@nessisonett Hasan denied it on Twitter that it was that asset of a man with an eyepatch. He said it’s their original artwork and anyone with an eyepatch will look similar to it with such a blurry photo. So more questions than answers once again which is the norm at this point.

Well, I made it through July without thinking about Abandoned much. But better believe i’ll be there August 10 to see what this app is about.

@Juanalf Do you not own your original copy? Why would you need to pay $70 again?

Feels like the right time to get Judgment for $25!

Ratchet & Clank is another game that utilizes the Dualsense and activity cards well. Returnal and Astro Bot also.

This looks awesome. I gotta play the first Judgment.

Lost Judgment was perhaps the biggest surprise appearance at this State of Play and it looked great.

That’s a great deal considering the new content and PS5 enhancements. I’ll definitely be upgrading for a tenner.

Better than I expected coming into it with low expectations. Moss 2, Sifu, F.I.S.T, Jett, Lost Judgment, Death Stranding: DC all look like games I’ll pick up at some point. Deathloop even looked better than anticipated.

The 70’s vibe never appealed to me for Deathloop. The dialog I’ve heard has been cheesy to me personally. Those were my feelings from the beginning before any acquisition took place. The gunplay does look solid though.

I agree we have been shown more than enough of this game already and a further 9 minutes of it in the next SoP feels like too much already.

Also, while we can assume a sequel would be exclusive to Xbox/PC, I don’t think it’s a guarantee that Deathloop will even receive a sequel. It will likely depend on how Deathloop does commercially and also whether Arkane has envisioned a sequel for this game or not.

Not everything needs to be predicted first. And since when has Sony really been predictable about anything they haven’t announced beforehand? Predictable is boring and these “insiders” with their leaks are just like the people who try to spoil the ending of a movie for you before you’ve watched it.

Looks like this is not the big one with God of War. Guess we take what we can get for now. Hoping for Stray and Little Devil Inside release dates for the indie updates.

@AdamNovice @mrtennis1990

Ya they would have to be in talk with Nixxes for a while before the deal could get done. I was just thinking maybe they were talking to them both for some time now in hopes one of them would sell.

But yes, the change to “fully independent” in their Twitter bio was changed just yesterday.

Could it be possible that Bluepoint declined an offer so Sony decided to go with Nixxes instead? Just a thought based on Bluepoint’s recent emphasis on being fully independent.

The people who are saying this is just about porting Playstation games to PC can’t see the forest for the trees. A team at Guerrilla Games had to spend months porting Horizon: Zero Dawn to PC.

You give Nixxes the task now for porting older PS4 games to PC, now that team can be free to work on PS5 exclusives and release them faster. Nixxes will free up other Playstation Studios which will in turn improve output for console players. Everybody wins.

Guess it pays to wait sometimes. I’ve still yet to play Ghost of Tsushima, and this director’s cut PS5 version looks like the definitive version and the right time to jump in.

Nixxes were hiring last year for a game director as well apparently. Could be working on an original project of their own.

Great news. Not an acquisition that sets the gaming world on fire, but one that will improve the workflow overall.

Is there any studio as prolific as Insomniac lately?

“I have no idea how to succeed on this platform”

Here’s an idea, put out a compelling game and people will play it. It’s really that simple. I glanced at Neon Doctrine’s output and I’m not surprised their games don’t sell well on Playstation. Playstation sells more software than any of their rivals so your game needs to stand out. If the quality is there, people will buy it.

Really happy getting the next-gen port of Plague Tale. The other two I don’t care for especially WWE, bleh.

Has Konami not seen gameplay of The Medium?

Very happy news! Congrats to Housemarque, it is well deserved by them. They really never put out a bad game, and Returnal is their best yet. Game of the year!

@Loftimus Glad to see you gave it a shot and are enjoying Returnal my friend.

I would gladly take Lost Legacy.

Ratchet & Clank is comfort food, so I get the polling results. Me personally, I’ll just say Housemarque has shot up my favorite developer list and I can’t wait to see what they come up with next.

@Weebleman I had no idea about that unfollow-spree by Nuare but kept Kojima as their final 10 following. That’s too strange!

Unfortunately I have the feeling that this “app” on Friday leads to more additional questions than answers. But hopefully I’m wrong.

@Weebleman Is the background abnormally blurry also or is that how it usually is? I feel like with other videos in the past we can see objects on the shelves more clearly.

Even though it’s a crossgen title, the PS5 version of Horizon: Forbidden West looks significantly better than Forspoken in my opinion, and both are open-world.

Two days to go!

On topic, if you look at the games Nuare has supported in the past, it’s many high-quality mostly AAA titles. Then they just decide to support some tiny indie dev that’s never put out much before? And the CEO is somehow convinced to make a video for BlueBox on behalf of them?

I’m not convinced this is Kojima or SH related ultimately. But what I am convinced of is this game is a bigger deal than it appears on the surface.

He looks more like an actor than a game developer but you can’t judge a book by its cover.

Is it Friday yet? Just want to see what this app is already.

Ratchet & Clank is amazing it has the best visuals of any game currently and it introduces some new mechanics well plus has a great story.

With that being said, Returnal is THE best PS5 game currently. Nothing else feels quite like it when you play it, it has the best 3D audio and Dualsense implementation for a game so far. The alien designs are superb, bullet hell effects, the house segments blending the first-person with third. A puzzling but fascinating story. A truly unique experience.

The gameplay is on another level, when I’m playing Ratchet I feel like I’m playing Returnal in slow motion. Just my opinion though.

The fact that this teaser app/reveal whatever it is got delayed from the 20’th to the 22’nd, and then today announced by Blue Box another delay to the 25’th, is annoying to say the least.

I hope it’s a good horror game at the end of the day but I’m not going to spend much time thinking about it further until it’s revealed.

It’s gonna be a long few days of speculation until this thing is revealed.

I just wanted to point out another crazy coincidence I’ve seen others have discovered online. Not my discovery.

If you search Blue Box Game Studios, the founder is someone named Hasan Kahraman. Kahraman is a Turkish name in origin meaning “hero”. If you go to Google translate Japanese to Turkish and you type in Hideo, it translates on the Turkish side to Kahraman. Go ahead try it yourself!

I didn’t believe this was more than an indie from a small studio but that is a freaky coincidence.

I’m just gonna say my top most anticipated from that list is Elden Ring by a long shot.

Now the devs are responding to people on Twitter and claimed that the segment they showed previously with the person walking in the forest with a gun wasn’t the actual game and that the game hasn’t been revealed yet. What the heck is going on?

Day 1! Huge fan of Fatal Frame 1 and 2 back in the day. I always wanted this Wii U entry to come to Playstation.

If it turns out to be something other than Silent Hill, like Survival or Shadowfall or something dumb like that, then this marketing gimmick was not a good move imo.

But at the end of the day what matters is the quality of the game with the gameplay reveal coming up soon. People are talking about it, hopefully it delivers.

Ya no thanks. Until it’s patched enough to have most of the bugs out I’m not going near it. And only for a good discount on principle.

@Dezzy70 No game shown at E3 is going to be able to compete with Horizon II and Ratchet & Clank. I think thats why Sony released the State of Play and Ratchet before E3, because they knew all the games at E3 would be compared to them from gamers.

That was an average show at best. After Halo was delayed, to not show any gameplay from the campaign and supposedly releasing this holiday season is a major red flag.

Starfield is supposedly out next year and not a moment of gameplay was shown.

Forza was the best looking game there, but there were no real surprise announcements. What happened to the Kojima collab that was so heavily rumored?

But I agree with the original point of this article. Gamepass is going to be filled with alot of day 1 content that does make it a great deal.

It does look pretty downgraded to be fair.

You already know! Ratchet & Clank this weekend.

Happy gaming everyone.

Everything in the game worked fine for me on the latest patch, but more stability and improvements are always welcome. I’m just waiting for Returnal to get some new content now!

It’s a little harder to impress for a Souls game after the incredible remake Bluepoint did of Demon’s Souls. But this still looks great and you already know the game will be fantastic coming from Fromsoft.
