I didn't spend a ton of time on Uncharted's multiplayer, but the time I did spend was a blast!

It stinks, but it was going to happen sooner or later. It's been nearly a full console gen, and Uncharted 2 is a decade old. Honestly, it was only a matter of time.

If we can't use the Rock Bottom, this game ain't worth it.

Game looks sick. Dragon Mines was done really well here.

This was a good read. Normally, I always play with a dub when possible, but since the Yakuza franchise is seeped in Japanese culture (for example, Yagami's Japanese actor is a legit celebrity of some kind, to the point Yagami is modeled after him), it was curious to see an English track. I'll definitely play with the English track first, see how it comes off.

Crash, Judgment, and Samurai Shodown are my picks. And they come out close to each other too.

Cataclysm is the perfect word to describe how this game has turned out.

This game looks nice. It's coming out pretty soon too, might have to pre order.

People get way more bent out of shape over exclusives than it's worth. I'm not downplaying their importance, they are important, but now people get worried over Sony not having total exclusivity over some games. I don't see a reason to worry that much. There will always be exclusives, plenty only on PlayStation. Sony have no reason to stop that, especially after the profits some of them pull in. Some games going multiplatform ain't gonna kill them, like it didn't before with former PS2 exclusives Devil May Cry, Tekken, and Metal Gear Solid, not with all the money PS4 has made them.

We all have PS4s, right? Go get Death Stranding when it's out. What's stopping you?

I've only played 3 titles from this year, and two are on this list: Kingdom Hearts III and Devil May Cry 5. KH3 was a shade disappointing, but it was still a great title, and DMC5 might be my best title this year, unless Death Stranding blows me away.

I would love a new Rayman, very much so, but with Michel Ancel working on Wild and Beyond Good and Evil 2, it would be very unlikely. Then again, that would make it all the more surprising, eh?

Heck, give me more BG&E and that'd be surprising enough for me.

Now we're talking. Definitely excited for this!

I definitely should look at more controllers while I have a chance. The one I have has been starting to show it's age.

Picture me as Thor screaming YES! right now.

Paragraph two pretty much hits the nail on the head.

Jeezus, it has been too long since we've seen anything on this. Any new info or trailer is appreciated after the wait.

I need to marathon these when I'm not busy. This game still has my interest even after 4 years.

I got MHW about a week ago. Since I have it, I'm definitely eyeing the expansion.

I started with S&S, but I tried out the Insect Glaive, and I really like using it.

Has it really been 10 years? Wow, time is flying by.

Infamous is one of my favorite franchises from PlayStation. The original was a title that really made me want a PS3 after my first one crashed, and Second Son was the game that made me want a PS4. I've platinum'd the first two games, but haven't gotten it for Second Son yet because of backlog. Also need to play Festival of Blood and First Light. Infamous 1 & 2 are two of my favorite games ever, Second Son felt undercooked, but is still very fun.

I'm definitely in the camp who want the series to return, hopefully once Tsushima is done. A new Infamous could be a perfect showcase of what the new hardware is truly capable of.

Even with a delay and revamped design, people will probably hate this movie regardless.

A. It's a video game movie.
B. It has Sonic.

There's probably already more articles on the way from every website under the sun, just chomping at the bit to rip it a new one.

I feel insulted that this game released on my birthday.

PlayStation is my usual system of choice because of that balance. A good mix of 1st and 3rd party helps make a great system in general, and my favorite systems generally follow that template.

It's nice to hear him say this, but at the same time, kinda sad he has to because this should be standard procedure for any studio. Anyone should make whatever game they want. Long may it continue, indeed.

Call me superficial, but being a redhead puts her close to best girl territory for me. Looking forward to how her character is in the game.

Makoto was great until I needed max charm to max her link, which proved to be not worth it on a replay.

I think we're overdue for a new R&C. It's honestly kinda surprising that looking back, of all the games in the franchise there's only one for PS4.

For real, they just want that secret exclusive formula.

Stupid jokes aside, this could result in some good stuff. As pointed out, there's both firm's tech experience which will definitely be useful as we keep going forward into digital and streaming. I haven't been keeping up that much with Microsoft honestly, but their online infrastructure has generally been one of the few things they've done well compared to others. That may be very helpful when both go more in for streaming.

The development of image sensor to me at least sounds like it can be a boon for VR related tech, and it would be great if that can continue to grow. In regard to the articles last few paragraphs, I'm all for improvement of games, and anything that can give us the best games as they can possibly be. Heck, improvement to the consoles themselves is also welcome. I might be overthinking, but if it's a possibility, I'll welcome it.

Obviously, we have to wait and see, but I think there's some potential good that can come out of this.

I can't say I've ever seen a game do this before, and it's working it's magic on me. I already wanted it, but I'm definitely getting it ASAP! Sorry, my dear wallet.

Having it release this year was always a stretch, let's be honest there. Since it's only came out of the woodwork very recently, 2020 is definitely the earliest it'll come out, and since it's being released in parts, it might be another two or so years (I'm going to assume the parts will release on consecutive years, but that might be wishful thinking) before we get the full thing completed.

Credit to both companies. PS4 globally has done exceedingly well, and 8 million in Japan is still a good number for a console in Japan's current gaming market, I think. And Nintendo have done very well recovering from the Wii U's failure.

This makes me wish it was actual DLC for Spidey PS4.

That is very impressive. I actually wanted to do this, but this guy seems to pull it off well.

I guess I'll settle for a Sons of Liberty Demake. I call dibs.

Managing expectations is far from easy. You can be concrete on what to expect, but depending on what you show, it's still possible to disappoint someone. You can say there's a two minute trailer for FF7 and yeah, it can curb some expectation, but if it's just a cutscene or two, it probably wouldn't go down well like a trailer featuring gameplay (such as a boss fight) would.

Sony can try, but they can only do so much. Especially since people today are very vocal.

Square delivers with the graphics. Don't need to be an expert to see that.

Years later, still don't know what to make of it. Well, we got a month, maybe then we'll finally get an explanation.

Day made.

Glad to see not much has changed since the last trailer. I was afraid it would essentially be 100% redone, but it looks stellar!

Jeez, what is with patches causing crashes now? Some developers just can't fix anything without breaking something else.

MediEvil is enough for me, but if FF7R is true my day'll be made. Even if it's just a teaser.

They're giving a lot of effort for this game. The love for Nitro Kart is something I appreciate too.

I know I'm in the minority, but the pacing didn't bug me. I can see why others would be bothered, but it's what I've personally come to expect out of a RPG, especially Persona.

But hey, nothing wrong with some quality of life improvements. I'm looking forward to what else is in store.

Yeah, I wasn't expecting it to, honestly. Starting from square one in a Persona game isn't easy, but I'll deal.

I would like to see more MediEvil, so I'll try to tune in this time.

I approve of a return if only because I think we're beginning to have a dearth of pure stealth titles. Metal Gear is done, who knows when Splinter Cell will come back, and Hitman is essentially the only big representative of the genre. There's a few indie stealth games, but as far as I know they're also few and far. I'm not asking for the market to suddenly explode with stealth games, but it sucks that the genre has one true tentpole now, while the AAA space has plenty of open world adventures.

I feel like someone's just standing by a lever waiting to open the floodgates.

I can't say I'm a big Castlevania fan, since I've only played one game, but this looks pretty good. Not sure if I'll get it, but I hope those that do enjoy it.

I'm usually an optimistic guy, but it's definitely hard to have any sort of faith in BioWare today. I figured Anthem would bust but not to the extent it has, and while it's a different type of game, what we do have on Dragon Age 4 doesn't inspire confidence.

Believe me, I would welcome being proven wrong.

Not sure I'll watch this year. Not because Sony pulled out, but because I've always found watching the whole thing boring after a while. I'll just wait for the articles.

@Jaz007 I would say it felt about 10 hours shorter than a typical KH. I was still at the 40 hour mark when it ended. KH1 felt longer, honestly. The worlds were larger and longer, but there was still fewer enough to shorten the game. I could forgive the lack of some side activities if we had more than what we got.

And I agree that not every game needs to be long, but not only is KH3 an RPG, it's also a conclusion to a storyline that started in 2002. I expect at least 60 hours from an RPG, so when I ended the game at around 40 hours, it was hard not to feel a little underwhelmed, and I can understand if anyone else feels the same, despite my enjoyment of the game.

@Orpheus79V I agree with this, although I can understand the sentiment of thinking it should be there to begin with. I really do love KH3, but it's shorter length was quite a shock.

Still, I'd rather have DLC than wait for another Final Mix.

@Shigurui Yeah, I can see a special edition down the line on PS5 happening. I was hoping I wouldn't have to wait long for more content though.

Ah well. The game itself is great as it is, no use for me getting upset.

@AdamNovice It goes to show how much this stuff can weigh a game down. Gameplay wise, I'm enjoying it more than MKX, but the grind hurts. I think grinding in the original Phantasy Star is better than this.

The towers are dumb in this game. The Multiverse in Injustice 2 was handled fairly I think, but the first tower (The element one) after the tutorial tower was a massive pain. Just saying, you should never have screen blinding in a fighting game, even as an optional challenge. If they also tone down the difficulty of these, that'd be grand.

After looking at the trailer and reading this, I'm definitely excited. Already loved P5 as is, this might make it my favorite PS4 game!
