Not sure if there's a connection between devs saying the Gamepass money has dried up and Sony suddenly going harder on day one PS Plus releases but I'm all for it.
Framerate isn't a deal breaker for me, but I can't help but wonder if we'd even be having this discussion right now if a certain giant publisher didn't kneecap this generation before it even started with a certain stupid white box.
I'd give it an 8. Maybe I'm just burnt out on the FromSoft formula, but Team Ninja's approach to difficulty just hits for me. This is giving me a lot of what I hoped to get from Sekiro, and I'm definitely keen to see where Team Ninja goes from here.
Just finished it. I enjoyed it so much I kind of forgot I was playing a demo. And the way it cuts from Eve's final blow on the boss to the highlight reel at the end is stylish as hell.
According to playstation universe, Take-Two only purchased Gearbox Entertainment and not Gearbox Publishing. That's probably where the layoffs came from.
Really great to hear that this is shaping up to be something special, but between this, FF7 Rebirth, Helldivers 2, Granblue Fantasy Relink and Rise of the Ronin, hearing all this talk about playstation having a bad year makes me feel like I'm going insane.
Skyrim felt monumental back in 2011. Now it feels like a relic, and Bethesda's latest efforts haven't done much to sway that opinion. With games like Dragon's Dogma, Horizon and Zelda, they have too much stiff competition for Elder Scrolls 6 to just be another Bethesda game.
I've had it pre-ordered for ages now. I might play it before DD2 depending on how I feel, but right now everything is on the back burner until I finish FF7 Rebirth l.
I decided to hold off on new game plus until after the DLC came out. Turned out to ve a good decision. I can't wait to play Final Fantasy mode with all this new stuff
@MikeOrator The ultimate irony being that if the main character Eve was even a modicum less attractive, those same YouTube bros would be calling her a woke Mary-Sue character.
Easy 10/10. I'd give it an 11 if I could. Yes I'm bias, yes I'm a fanboy, no I don't care. This lived up to all my expectations and the only real criticism I have is that there are way too many mini games.
Square is knocking it out of the park with this remake and I can't wait for part 3.
I'll pick it up eventually, but strategy games just aren't really my thing and there are too many games in the pipeline that appeal more to me at the moment.
Congratulations Vanillaware on another great title, but please make another action games soon.
Congrats to Helldivers 2 and FF7 Rebirth for their success. And congrats to the playstation store for having playstation exclusives at the top of the charts.
@KundaliniRising333 Normally I don't agree with you on anything, but the last game that did this was the new Saint's Row. So that's not super encouraging.
This looks great. I think I'll wait for a sale, but, I'd probably get it now if the next months of my gaming schedule weren't already banished to the Shadow Realm by a certain spikey-headed RPG.

Re: Talking Point: What's Your Favourite PS5 Game of 2024 So Far?
Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. And I can tell you right now that nothing's going to top it.

Re: Poll: How Much Do You Care About 60fps on PS5?
Framerate isn't a deal breaker for me, but I can't help but wonder if we'd even be having this discussion right now if a certain giant publisher didn't kneecap this generation before it even started with a certain stupid white box.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Rise of the Ronin?
I'd give it an 8. Maybe I'm just burnt out on the FromSoft formula, but Team Ninja's approach to difficulty just hits for me. This is giving me a lot of what I hoped to get from Sekiro, and I'm definitely keen to see where Team Ninja goes from here.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing the Stellar Blade Demo?
I've played it twice already. Normally I don't play demos more than once, but this one's got me feeling a certain way.
Re: The Stellar Blade Playable Demo Is Now Available on PS5
Just finished it. I enjoyed it so much I kind of forgot I was playing a demo. And the way it cuts from Eve's final blow on the boss to the highlight reel at the end is stylish as hell.

Re: Japan Sales Charts: Dragon's Dogma 2, Rise of the Ronin Can't Beat Princess Peach
Japan doesn't count anymore. Pretty soon Nintendo going to have actual political power over there.
Re: Seismic Free No Man's Sky Update Transforms Space Stations on PS5, PS4
Xbox can keep Starfield. We're good here.
Re: Preview: Stellar Blade Is the PS5 Exclusive Enthusiasts Have Been Praying For

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Unicorn Overlord?
I haven't played it yet, but it's Vanillaware so it gets at least an 8 from me by default.
Re: Talking Point: How Do You Feel About the PS5 Pro?
I don't we need one yet, but I also know I'm too much of a sucker to not buy one.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Dragon's Dogma 2?
Gotta finish Rebirth first, but yes, I'm absolutely playing it. This is my second dream-come-true game to come put this year.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Hi-Fi Rush?
@hookedWORM17 That was the last Xbox game I was interested in. (And that was ten years ago)
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Hi-Fi Rush?
I had it pre ordered, but I probably won't get around to it until after Rise of the Ronin, Dragon's Dogma 2 and Stellar Blade.
It's still there only Xbox game I'm really interested in at the moment though, so I'm glad they brought it to playstation.

Congrats to Helldivers 2 and FF7 Rebirth for their success. And congrats to the playstation store for having playstation exclusives at the top of the charts.

Re: PS5 Action RPG The First Berserker Looks Brutal and Bold in New Gameplay
So are all the fights one-on-one or was that just to make the trailer more cinematic?
Re: Sony Secures Final Fantasy 7 Remake Trilogy as PlayStation Console Exclusives
@Tecinthebrain I'm sorry, do you want Sony to take their competition seriously or not?
Re: Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut Finally Confirmed for PC, Launches This May
This feels like a good fit, especially if it gives Legends a shot in the arm.
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Uncapped Frame Rate Put to the Test on PS5, Preview Build Averages 31fps
The word 'uncapped' is doing some pretty heavy lifting here.
Still getting it day one, but this might motivate me to start with Rise of the Ronin until Capcom gets this sorted out.

@Uromastryx She's lucky she's adorable.

Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's Graphical Problems Are Clear in Digital Foundry Report
People spent twenty years asking for this game with better graphics. Now they got it and they're still complaining.

Re: Poll: Are You Playing Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth?
I scheduled a whole week off to play it. I just have to finish what is sure to be the longest shift of my life.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 517
Not Final Fantasy VII Rebirth so who cares?
Re: Xbox Games Hi-Fi Rush, Sea of Thieves, Pentiment, Grounded All Confirmed for PS5, PS4
You'd think one of these games would be Sunset Overdrive. A game Sony technically owns.
Re: Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed Paints a Picture on PS5, PS4 in 2024
That's pretty cool, but if they can't fix the camera just cancel it. Like, what's even the point?
Re: Xbox Game Hi-Fi Rush Announced for PS5, Out Next Month
Probably won't play it at launch, but I will pick it up day one for reasons.
Re: Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree Out for PS5, PS4 on 21st June 2024
I'll skip this. I don't feel like having this game beat me into another year-long depression.
Re: Pacific Drive (PS5) - The Car Is the Reasonably Priced Star of Deep, Dense Survival Game
This looks great. I think I'll wait for a sale, but, I'd probably get it now if the next months of my gaming schedule weren't already banished to the Shadow Realm by a certain spikey-headed RPG.
Re: Dragon's Dogma 2 Unlikely to Be Capcom's Last $70 Game
This is the only game Capcom has released in the last five years I'd happily pay full price for. Though I suspect it'll be the last for a while.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for February 2024?
I'm quickly running out of reasons to not play the Tales games.

Turns out it's called Skull and Bones because that's what it is on arrival.
Re: Microsoft Exec on Helldivers 2: I'm Not Sure Who It Helps By Not Being on Xbox
This is either the most or least self-aware thing Phil Spencer has ever said.
Re: Starfield, Indiana Jones Aren't Coming to PS5 Just Yet
Couldn't care less about either of these games. Just give us Hellblade 2 like you know you should.
Re: Xbox Is Bringing Four Exclusives to PS5, But It Won't Say Which
@lightningbolt79 You must be new here. If Sony released a statement in this vain, they'd be getting torn to shreds even harder.
If you're going to sew Xbox apologia, at least take it to an Xbox website.
