Unless the achievement title is an amusing pun or reference they may as well be called Silver 1, Gold 2, Bronze 3 etc. I can't inagine anyone aims to get a trophy just because it has a good name.
Huge update? New Game+ and some new suits doesn't scream huge update to me so the title implies you know what the more is? Or do you mean huge in size digitally and we are going to need to clear some space for this one.
Surely if you played Remake then you will have your decision already made. If you haven't played it then ignore all this as you've got a whole game to catch up on.
@Cherip-the-Ripper I am sure some legal experts could figure out how to prosecute someone for online threats. We can but hope. Or maybe the police can just come round and have stern words with their parents.
I barely take any pictures in real life. My mind is my camera. If I don't remember it then it can't have been any good. I only use photo modes for completing a trophy otherwise not really my thing. Each to their own though.
It's the internet and people don't tend to go on the internet to shout about their indifference. I have the game on the PS4 in my backlog so not really concerned about it but $10 for shinier graphics and some extra levels which could be viewed as DLC seems OK to me.
@sanderson72 I may have to cave and get some third party ones at some stage but fingers crossed.
@MrHabushi They must see the traffic to the site so can see there is a demand. We can't be the only two looking for them and the margin on them has got to be good. They can't cost more than a few pounds to make.
The Game Awards said it was Baldur's Gate 3 and you say Spider-Man 2. GOTY is a fact so there can be only one. I have seem elsewhere that Alan Wake 2 takes the prize. This is getting ridiculous. We need consensus and uniformity. Any straying from the correct path shall be punishable by death until everyone is in a agreement. The real GOTY is of course Gollum.
What's this character's hit ratio like? This article says he is 2 for 2 misses for PlayStation. I assume he must have got something right at some point or we wouldn't even be getting an article? My mate Dave says we are getting the Maximo duo HD collection with a third game due on the PS6. Dave has no clout though so I would take this with all the grains of salt you can imagine.
There definitely needs to be obvious disclaimers at point of purchase on games that says that if the servers shut down the game will be rendered unplayable.
@naruball I was thinking the same. That's about 15% of game time picking a character. I haven't played it but I would be a default character all day long. Character creation is just frustrating for me so I avoid it as much as I can in games other than picking a bright hair colour. Takes the edge of in serious scenes.
The expansion of Fortnite this week is impressive. Skins will never be impressive to me if they don't actually grant any perks. I don't care too much what I look like in real life (as long as me and my clothes are clean) so care even less in games.
@NinjaNicky Hopefully this game taught everyone a lesson to not pre-order games and maybe wait for a good few patches and hopefully a discount by the time you buy games to make sure they are a more complete package.
@MrMagic I don't think anyone said it was useless but not necessary for most people. I'm not interested as I prefer a big TV. Barely play my Switch handheld and will be getting a dock for my Steamdeck so I can play it more. What's the point in having a super powerful console and then playing it on a screen half the size of my dad's old TV I used to play F-Zero on? That's just me though.
Started Ghost of Tsushima this week so continuing with that. Almost at the end of Act 2. Took me a while to get into it but loving it now. Taking my time with it and doing a lot of the side quests.
@bindiana The name of that game is so great it is too much for us to handle in the UK apparently. It definitely gets my vote as one of the greatest game names.
Xbox owners waiting out on it hitting Gamepass. 8% on PS4 surely means this is the last entry on the system especially if it is 2 years until the next one.
It is quite interesting that the past few weeks the Series X has sold 2500 in Japan. It was barely over 500 the weeks before. If Xbox was at its normal levels the PS5 would have still been on top with this week's numbers.
@get2sammyb Remind us when they shut the servers down as I will forget in 20 years. Hopefully it won't be a problem as long as the PS8 is backwards compatible.
Surely this is only a concern if you try and add one after the servers have closed which would likely only occur at that point if the drive failed which would be no worse than if the drive failed on the current model. By that point I am sure some enterprising soul or souls will have worked out how to get around it.

@Relygon Sony should follow suit too. Intellivision can then release the Amico and take over the world with no competition.

Re: Insomniac Devs Forced to Speak Out Against Social Media Abuse Over the Lack of Spider-Man 2 Updates
We need a couple of high profile examples of people being prosecuted for online threats and hopefully that will be enough to quell the lunatics.

Re: Physical Games Represented Just 4% of Sales for PlayStation Last Quarter
They won't be planning on making many of those disc drive separates for the new PS5 model then.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Alan Wake 2?
@Loamy The only game they would give 10/10 for is the one where you browse the internet giving the lowest possible score in polls.
Re: Are There More Silent Hill Remakes Coming to PS5?
A remake of the original would be appreciated. I preferred that to the sequel as I enjoyed 2 but the bit with the boat really annoyed me at the time.
Re: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Really Is Just DLC, Says Its Trophy List
Do many people have room for a load of CODs to be installed at once? Wouldn't all those games listed swallow up the whole of a base PS5 SSD?
Re: The First Photos of the PS5 Slim Are Circulating Online
Not as small as I pictured in my head compared to the original. Looks about an inch shorter in width and depth and a touch thinner.
