I imagine there are a lot of games that get cancelled behind the scenes & that we don’t know about. It’s not the end of the world or even worth reporting imo. I mean there was character art for a modern day Jak & Daxter by ND & Sly 4 was teased but never happened.
Sony Santa Monica cancelled the scy-fy game after GOW ascension & purring over 100mil into it.
The end result? We got the GOW 2018 & by extension Ragnarok.
I’d be glad that they stopped, otherwise you end in a Skull & bones & beyond good and evil situation. Games that will come out, waste the team years of time & will still be rubbish.
Hogwarts legacy although I won’t be playing it till later (PS4).
I don’t know why, as I’ve been on media blackout & will continue to be so until I’m playing it, but I’m absolutely certain that this game will deliver.
I’d like to think that Sony keeps all this PlayStation prop in a massive warehouse somewhere.
Then when the apocalypse does happen (probably sooner rather than later given current world events) you’ll get some scavengers exploring & thinking ‘boy they sure had it carefree😂😂😂’.
It probably all gets disassembled & recycled straight after use, but I can dream.
In this day & age there is no need for E3. A ton of games are announced- mostly early, and at the end of the day there’s only like 3-5 games that take up all the conversation.
Why should all these games compete against each other for attention?
Have you own day & those that are interested will buy it. There us no need for E3 in the social media age.
MS has money to burn. Despite results like this. Everything is down despite the series X being like 2 years old? It’s the Netflix of gaming. All that matters is content, content, content.
@cragis0001 @EVIL-C The Uk is one of Xbox’s biggest markets. There was a leak a couple of weeks ago that PS5 is at 10.5 million & Xbox at 8.7million lifetime sales.
We also know that Xbox does have a larger digital/physical split, but that nowhere near brings it close to PS5.
If Sony jumps into Day1 like MS the 100million+ budget for AAA games suddenly turns to sub 50million max. Nintendo would never do that. They believe in quality & the value of their games.
Also for context Callisto Protocol cost $160million+.
MS can get away with deals like this because the exposure of these games enhances sales on other platforms. If Sony joins the fray & says ‘we’ll pay what Microsoft is paying or the game won’t be be put on our platform’ publishers will be screwed.
Game pass is great for Indie/AA games to get exposure, but if Day 1 sub games become a reality you’ll never get a GOW:R, TLOU, Uncharted ever again.
Disgaea is the one franchise that I would love to recommend, but that I can’t. It’s so bonkers & demands such an insane amount of time & dedication I don’t even know how to describe it.
@NEStalgia How does this affect you in anyway? The show exists & is clearly bringing in new fans. Why gatekeep?
I can’t speak for myself as I’m waiting for season 1 to finish to binge it, but my sister watched the first episode on YouTube & is now hooked. Literally her only experience with games expands as far as Just Dance for the Wii. The true test will be if I can get my wife to watch- although that will take some divine intervention!
Yep. That’s Cassie. Sony aren’t going to drop Uncharted.
ND aged the characters in real time. Nate was 33 in UC2 (2009) & 40 by UC4 (2016). If the new studio follows that, Cassie would be somewhere between 17-22 assuming a 2024 release. Call it Uncharted 5: A Thief’s Beginning. Pay me later Sony 😉.
@NEStalgia I don’t really follow the Japanese charts anymore, but it does seem that the PS5 is doing better than the PS4 did.
Then again the PS4 launched late in Japan- unlike the PS5 which was a worldwide release. Perhaps that is affecting the launch aligned numbers? F2P can certainly be a factor, but in a week where PS5 sold 42k+, but the only game to chart is GT7 at 5.4k it’s certainly is sus.
The only way that I could explain it is that Japanese PS gamers have a more eclectic taste or that digital is way higher over there. Japan is weird😅.
@BoldAndBrash It’s not about being too cheap. I just don’t like having too many subscriptions.
Also apart from TLOU there’s nothing I’d watch on Sky Atlantic & Now TV.
@KaijuKaiser I’m just spitballing, but with the living situation over there & over population I wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t want boxes of plastic taking up space.
I have 4 storage boxes filled with games & hardware over 25+ years of collecting. That’s a lot of space for games I’ll probably never play again. Luckily I keep those games at my parents house😅.
Not a fan of Kenny, but it was only a matter of time before he would be in a Yakuza game. Yakuza 6 had a bunch of NJPW wrestlers like Tanahashi, Naito & Okada. Omega’s signature & finisher moves are literally gaming references (V-trigger & One Winged Angel Slam).
Do we know how well the PS5 is doing compared to PS4 launch aligned?
PS4 did like 20k/week consistently, pretty early into its life cycle iirc. PS5 hasn’t even had a price cut yet (it’s gone up actually), so there might be some hope to reach 10million lifetime.
Hardware sales are good, but software really is bad. 5.4K for GT7- the only PS game to chart, in a week where 42k consoles were sold is surprising. Are Japanese PS players more used to buying digital?
@ItsBritneyB_tch Wow you’ve really smashed through them. It would be very impressive if you get through all the books before the game releases as well.
What did you think of the movies? Interested to know what someone with no nostalgia bias thinks in 2023.
Would’ve bought it, if there was a PS4 version. It runs on Xbox one, right? No reason they couldn’t get a PS4 version up & running. Will probably wait for FM24 at this point.
Nick Offerman is one of the manliest men ever. I could absolutely believe that if the world came to an end, he would set up a fortress of solitude covered in traps disconnected from everyone else. Great choice for Bill.
Watched the first hour & even though the gameplay looks fun. The writing is horrendous. I cringed so badly throughout that introduction. Especially just before she goes to sleep. I just thought to myself that no one could actually look back at that & think ‘we nailed that scene’.
Not interested. I’ll wait for Monster Hunter World 2. These games take so much out of you that I need years in between as a buffer. The reason why didn’t pick up P5R, I haven’t craved going back to Persona yet, but I will.
@bozz Nope not damaging just what could’ve been if they managed to keep them happy somehow with loans or selling them on with buy-back clauses. Oh well RM still went on to win 4CLs in 5 years so can’t complain!
@Titntin That’s sad to hear. Hopefully as the tech evolves there’ll be ways to ease people into it.
When I first tried VR I felt similar but definitely not to your extent. Even playing something like Thumper for like 30mins would make me feel woozy. With time I got much better at it & it passed. Just being able to play Resi7VR was worth the price of entry & that’s not to mention Astrobot: Rescue Mission- the single greatest video game experience in my life.
How things could’ve gone. Hakimi & Hernandez were both on the books at Madrid before they were 20. Hernandez was eventually sold at a loss & Hakimi who came through the youth team played like 10 games in 3 years for the senior side. Absolute waste. Not to mention Odegaard… .
@Dr-M Honestly no unless you wanted to experience the series from beginning to end. Like seeing the evolution from Final Fantasy 1-15 (or the upcoming 16).
Persona 3 is where modern Persona games begin. P4G & P5 have taken its system and evolved it. The games are standalone unless you play the spin off games.
I think Persona (1) is a solid JRPG for its time- like 7/10. Persona 2 I didn’t enjoy playing, but the story was great.
*HHH theme plays…
🎶It’s all about the game & how you play it…🎶
@Grimwood Not to pile on, but WHAT?!
You must have replayed the same game over & over again as a kid. I know I played Pokémon Blue at least 10 times through.
There’s also 3 versions of TLOU. OG, Remaster+DLC & Remake you add in trophy collecting (speed run, grounded,…) & I can easily see how someone would get to that number.
After the Persona 5 reveal I was so determined to play all the earlier games first as I had missed out on.
Luckily the vita had P1-4 & the portable version is therefore my reference point. P3P is were I finally got it & loved the series ever since.
I’m not sure when I’ll get it as I’m working on my backlog, but I’ll be picking it up eventually.
Also that soundtrack is incredible. If you like rhythm games P3 Dancing in Moonlight is a great way to kill some time.
@ItsBritneyB_tch I plan to do so anyways & I’ve read all the books and watched all the movies multiple times.
As mentioned it’s set well before the events of Harry Potter, but it would help flesh out the world. For example the article mentions Azkaban which is a major setting for the 3rd movie/book.
Now that I think about it you might encounter Dumbledore he’d be around 9/10 which might make him a first year.
@SillyBoyJudas So I don’t have a PS5, but on my physical PS4 copy it says free PS4 to PS5 upgrade.
On the Bandai Namco page: Upgrade from PS4™ to PS5™ If you have already purchased the PS4™ version of "Dragon Ball Z: KAKAROT", you can upgrade for free. Upgrades are free for both the main game and DLC. Details on the upgrade procedure will be announced on the official website at a later date.
Just note that if you buy the PS4 version now, you will not be playing the PS5 version just yet. You have to wait for the PS5 patch to be released which is this Friday (13th).
@SillyBoyJudas DBZ: Kakarot is a free upgrade from PS4-PS5. Couldn’t you buy the PS4 version for dead cheap and upgrade or am I missing something?
It’s a pretty good game tbh. Ended up getting the platinum. Doesn’t re-invent the wheel, but would be fan servicyyy enough for any fan.
Seriously I’m hoping odyssey is good. I’ve just caught up with the manga & was almost tempted to buy Seeker during the January sale. I don’t get why Naruto & DBZ are the only ones getting great games (I know that Pirate Warriors 4 is meant to be good but too old at this point).
I voted Persona 3 Portable, the game that created modern Persona.
I actually really like the design. Also find it fun that it’s named project Leonardo as the controller kind of looks like a turtle shell & has blue lights.
@UltimateOtaku91 The man has been at PlayStation since the PSOne (20+ years) & was largely responsible for PlayStation’s dominance in Europe.
People are always looking for someone to blame, but when your top dog the buck stops with you. I don’t think he’s loosing any sleep over it, as PlayStation is as strong as ever (as a brand).

This is an industry. It needs to make money.
Re: Sony's MLB The Show 23 Costs $70 on PS5, Nothing on Xbox Game Pass
It isn’t sustainable. Dead Space Remake sold 80% on PS5.
Microsoft has conditioned their player base to not pay full price or anywhere near it.
Be careful what you wish for. Games are only getting more expensive & publishers have to find a way to extract money.
If Sony jumps in, it’ll be a free for all to the bottom dollar.
It’s horse armour in disguise & look how that turned out.
I would hope that Sony are growing SSD behind the scenes with the free money they are getting with it being multiplat so we can get something new.
