@get2sammyb If I am correct, Gamestop, or its parent company, owns Game Informer, which explains the perks previously alluded to in a previous comment.
Looking forward to playing this game. I do love the Borderlands franchise and am yet to get tired of it, no Borderlands fatigue whatsoever and more is always welcomed.
I actually just signed up for this service for the first time ever yesterday. It has been good fun so far, no noticeable input lag so far but I have only been playing one game, the Sly Cooper Collection. I hope for the good fun to continue. After Sly I will play FF VIII, my favorite FF from the PS I era.
Great news for Bamco. I have the game on both PS4 and steam, and will be working toward the platinum sometime in the near future. I enjoyed the game and am hopeful of a sequel eventually. Fun souls like for those still unsure about it and like the souls genre.
Cannot wait to get my hands on one in the near future. Will finally upgrade my 2014 32 inch 1080p tv to a more modern one, and then I will be in the hunt for the fiver. In the meantime, I am glad the DualSense is a resounding success and most everyone seems to praise it.
It is digital only in the west for the PSN. In the states, the Switch is getting a physical release of this game. Not sure if Europe will also have this physical option only on Switch as well.
But yes, if you are buying this on PSN your only option for the time being will be a digital version.
Day one buy from me. I have loved the series since my first foray into it, on the Nintendo DS with Justice for All. I have all the DS entries that made it outside Japan.
I will be buying this on PSN to join the original Trilogy I fondly have on PSN as well.
OMG. Dead Space is one of the greatest games ever. Deal Space I and Dead Space II are experiences every gamer should have. Hope this is true. We need more Dead Space. Special mention to Dead Space Extraction. Which is a great on rails shooter in it's own right.
I had thought they, WayForward, were actually developing a game based on the RWBY franchise. I wonder if that is still in development and just was not ready to be shown.
Regarding River City Girls.......welcome news, very happy it is getting a sequel.
To me, the most important aspect is the relationship and trust that Sony will develop with these "second-party" studios. Sony will trust these studios to develop a project they are passionate about and will support it, while the developer will trust Sony to give them the platform to flesh out their ideas and the user base to make the project a success.
Contributed one game, Valkyria Revolution, and two trophies from said game. Was the best I could do with my time constraints but still happy to receive the theme.
@SlySnake0407 I have never played a game from them before, so this will be my first, and also my first rouge game. I hope to understand the concept after playing it.
Truth be told, i would love for transistor to go on sale on PSN. That is the game from Supergiant that really intrigues me.
@Col_McCafferty I actually think it would be a good idea for Sony to release their own launcher on PC, if of course, they were to release their games on PC. Cut out the middleman as it were. However, this is just a thought, not exactly sure if it would work just think it is a good idea.
Pretty nice. On a personal level i am completely satisfied with 60 fps, so it really does not bother me too much that PS5 BC cannot do more on frame rate for older titles. Save 120fps or better for the newer titles.
I think most people will agree that it is completely logical and fair, what Sony is doing here, without the need for one to have a business degree or be business adept. It is just common business sense, these companies exist to make money after all.
This might be controversial, especially given the issue of pricing. I have never bought a Housemarque game at launch, and thus feel responsible for the comment they made a few years ago about arcade games being dead. I have always bought their games when on sale because I am always late to the party, but Housemarque games have never disappointed me. Nex Machina, for example, is an amazing experience and so is Matterfall.
Here is the controversy, i do not own a PS5, but i will buy this game at the asking price, and at launch because I am not that bothered by it, eventhough i understand the concerns about pricing from gamers, but I am also buying it as a way of saying thanks to Housemarque for their past games. They deserve all the support that will be coming their way, and i hope this game can be a great starting point for them as they increase their brand awareness and status within the industry.
Best of luck to them in the future and i hope the people who play this game on the PS5 enjoy it. As for me, it will be in my library until i join the PS5 army.
If i do not buy Samurai Warriors IV soon, I will wait and this will be my first Samurai Warriors game. I have been in a samurai itch, if you will, ever since Nioh, which i started playing In March of last year and still putting gameplay hours into it.
Anxious to find out what game this is, more specifically, its genre. I can assume it will probably be a FPS given the talent at hand but it could also not be. Hopefully we find out more sooner rather than later.
Brilliant news. I cannot wait. I have been a fan of the series since i played justice for all on the nintendo ds. Now to be able to finally play these is amazing news.
Excellent news, but this is just the beginning. We all know the PS3 is the so called "ugly duckling" of the PS family (given how it is the only console to not cross 100 million units sold worldwide), but the PSN started on said console. If Sony is finding it difficult to keep it alive due to technological reasons etc., they must find a way to integrate it into more modern technologies. But removing it should never be an option.
While he makes a valid point, actually more than valid, it is completely true from the perspective of game development, the way he delivers this message is completely wrong and rude.
I am of the opinion that game development costs need to be scaled back for the majority of developers. Most gamers cannot justify the recent price increase, so developers must scale back development. I imagine most gamers would be happy with game experiences not exceeding a particular time frame, that way they can finish the game.
Well done to PlayStation and Sony. I hope this success keeps getting better for them as we move on from this pandemic and hopefully, hopefully, the unit is easier to obtain for those who have been trying for months. Cannot wait to get one myself.
I have two copies of the game already, one for PS3 the other for PS4. I would not consider a PS5 version. However, if i saw it for $5 U.S. dollars or less, i would buy it.
