Not seen much of the tuning & customisation yet. That’s really the funnest part. Don’t stick it behind mtx.

Haven’t got an issue with this Troy & Ashley are part of the cast. They can help out if needed, but most importantly you’ve got Neil Druckmann overseeing this. No worries there.

If you wanted it to be exactly like the games, then well play the games. They’re as cinematic as it gets anyways.

My only issue is Bella actually playing Ellie. She’s 19 now. That’s pretty much Ellie’s age in Part 2.
No problem with Pedro he’s the perfect fit.

Will definitely pick up P3 at launch. My wallet though. Seems like I’m picking up a new release every month until at least January.

Calling it now. Boy becomes man.
I can do without the mini game though SSM.

@4kgk2 Well dreams crushed. Forgot about that.
Here’s hoping they’ve got multiple teams on the go, but I’m not sure if they’re big enough.

Pre-production for a new IP usually takes a couple of years iirc.
Give the rest of the team something to do for which they already have the blueprint for😉.

It’s cool that the 1st party studios help each other out. Must cut down on dev time significantly.

Also could Bluepoint be working on a Bloodborne remake? Would explain why it hasn’t got a 60fps patch yet.
The game is over 7 years old. Crazier things have happened 🤷‍♂️.

@UltimateOtaku91 I doubt it. Don’t think even the devs would expect you to. The anime & manga are over 1000 chapters/episodes long & they still have like 1/3 of the story left to tell.

Also this has its own original story so all you might need is to have a read of a character synopsis for the straw hats if it’s not in game. Also the flash back missions would probably introduce you to the characters anyways.

Looks promising. Reminds me of Underground a little bit.

@get2sammyb I’m sure they will, but there’s still going to be lots of people that come next Xmas see a hypothetical ‘FIFA2K24’ & pick that up instead.
Naming will be crucial for EA but I can absolutely see them call it EA SPORTS SOCCER24.

@Member_the_game I used to buy PES & FIFA every year once they were about 50% off. PES was for myself, FIFA for visitors.
Now there’s really no choice (efootball can get in the 🗑).

I don’t think EA realises just how much weight the FIFA name carries.
I’d love it if they got with Take-Two & the next FIFA game was called FIFA 2K24. There’d be so much confusion.

Now that PES is essentially dead it’s time for some new competition.

This is legit 7 years away.
I guess they did this to attract talent...but still.

iirc didn’t they ask the ‘fans’ to submit art work for free so that they could flesh out the world & let them be part of it on stage at an e3??

Ubi needs to stop announcing games & actually finish them first.

@KundaliniRising333 Hire actual gamers to run a multi-billion dollar company?

I’d give it a week tops before they declare bankruptcy.

TLOU I get. The OG was developed for PS3. This is mad.
I get having games being uniform across entries as we’re starting to hit the level where graphical increases are starting to have diminishing returns, but if this is anything more than £40 at launch Sony are crazy.

9/15. I’ll take it. That’s a B-, right?

Not too much of a surprise. Always destined to fail imo.

I swear I read somewhere that google was interested in selling the stadia tech- which is supposed to be pretty good.

@Jeaz I actually meant priority boarding. Didn’t know about how the priority seats kept regular seat prices down though.
@AdamNovice You know it’s gonna happen. A full price AAA game on PSN might get you £2-3 worth of credit.
Gamers: ‘It’s cheaper physically anyway, this service is trash’

I do get where they are coming from.

It’s like priority seating at the airport. You pay a bit more & it’s straight to the front of the queue.
Here those that invest more in the ecosystem get moved straight up.

I mean they may have made a few hires specifically for ‘priority’ members & we don’t know that.

First come, first serve should always be the go to, but this sort of practice has been around for a while.

@GamesVanDerBeek Remake Underground 2 at this point!
I bet they don’t have the licensing for the music & that’s why we never got it.
OG Most Wanted would be great too, but I have no interest in an multilayer focused NFS.

That’s pretty good tbh. Less than 3 matches to unlock another character. Also most players will probably just find 2-3 characters they like & try them out a bunch & then move on or stick with them. Not much of a grind really.

I imagine the PSN credits will be minimal.
I had GAME Elite for like £36/year & that was actually worth it. Full priced game that was pre-ordered got me just over 1/10th back. Now this didn’t include the vouchers that would get you cash off or double your points (/credits) which made it even more beneficial.
When I picked up my day 1 PSVR unit I got like £26 worth of credits.

I’ll sign up but probably won’t see much benefit from this as most of my digital purchases will be deep sale games.
As others have mentioned I hope they don’t tie this to trophies/plats.

@RogerRoger An acceptable answer. I would’ve also taken Red XIII.

Tifa or Aerith?

Literally just purchased a month of PS+ as I’m chasing some online trophies.
Already own Injustice 2 & have SuperHot for VR, but I’m happy to give hot wheels a go.

@Gloamin ‘We’ve got an economy in the toilet, a big election coming up, but this country’s number 1 priority should be making football safer’.

PS. I would genuinely buy a FIFA day 1 with Sarcastaball commentary.

*Maguire concedes penalty
‘How thoughtful of Harry to give the fans another memorable moment’

Would not be surprised if Embracer acquires them. 550 employees is a big head count- more than most of Sony’s 1st party.

They make good games, but they aren’t big sellers. Outriders still hasn’t turned a profit I believe. Might be in trouble.

E3 doesn’t make sense. Everyone dukes it out for attention...people will remember the big reveals & the rest get buried.

I’ll probably finish up Catherine: Full Body & make a decent start on Doom Eternal with there being no domestic football this weekend.

It’s either a God Of War: R state of play or a showcase with the headliner being God of War. There’s definitely going to be something to hype up the masses before GOW, Black Friday & XMAS.

Supposedly the person just wants 5 figures. That’s not even pocket change for Take2, but you can’t give in to blackmail.

Unfortunately as this individual has a large chunk of the source code I imagine this game will be delayed by at least a year.

Even if they give in & buy it back there’s no guarantee that the person doesn’t have a copy. Imagine if they could somehow get into GTA Online, that would be disastrous.

Hope they find the person & sue the daylights out of them.

@Snake_V5 @Jammsbro The person doesn’t just have some early footage, but also the source code for GTA5 & 6.They are actively trying to sell it to interested parties & blackmailing RockStar specifically in regards to GTA6.
Imagine if this person has enough info to get into GTA Online- let’s see how you feel if some guy in their mothers basement steals your identity & maxes out your credit card.

10/15. #2 was evil but I got it right just went with my most likely answer.
Also with Star Ocean I just went with the edgiest Square Enix marketing team could think of to appeal to a western audience lol.

@zupertramp @GreatAuk Trophies don’t have any real value. No rewards, discounts, etc. I do care about them if I like a game enough, because I would’ve seen everything a game has to offer.

IMO a good trophy list is a checklist that will allow the player to experience the most out of a game.

@Milktastrophe I don’t see myself buying this game, but it’s a free market.
These games obviously sell to those that want a quick platinum.
Let people buy what they want to buy. Sure it affects visibility for other games & that’s up to Sony to fix.

These games aren’t going anywhere. Not too long PlayStation Access- the official Uk channel, did a 4hr livestream or so to see which hosts could get the most amount of platinums. The games were pre-selected but the lineup had not Mayo1 & 2 in it.

As a side note, Nier Automata actually allows you to purchase all the trophies with in game currency. Is that ok?

Is it just the one dog you stroke 2000x or do you get to pick your dog breed or does the game just swap out dogs every few hundred strokes to keep things fun?

My dog reacts to other dogs on TV, so this might be a fun experiment if the dogs make actually sounds.

Yakuza 4 Remastered. Still early in but it’s started much, much stronger than Y3.
Also really like Akiyama reminds me of Sanji from fighting style to mannerism.

The more Kiryu the better.

Can’t take Ichiban seriously. I just think of the Japanese Joey lipstick ad from Friends😬😂

‘Are you a calm and reasonable man?’

Colin: Time for an hour long tirade

Sacred Symbols will be fun.

Pretty happy personally. Never played RE4 before & I’m not planning to get a PS5 for at least a while. Once I can get one for the OG price + 1 bundled game i’m in.

Should’ve just named it Dragon Quest: Adventures of Dai. It looks pretty good though.
I’m pretty sure that full title wouldn’t even fit on the box art unless the font is like 4 lol

Figured as much given the live stream. I like continuity but it is what it is.

Atlus just release the inevitable P5 fighting game so we can get on with the hype train for P6.
We all know it’s going to happen.

Well 10 points to gryffindor looks like the Snitch earned an L.

Such a great SoP I’m genuinely interested in the majority of games shown.
Ishin was so out of left field. Looks like Like a Dragon is Yakuza moving forward?

Sony said: It’s 10 games & 20min of game content focused on Japanese devs/publishers ahead of TGS. Anyone that goes in expecting something else only has themselves to blame.

Personally I’m just tuning in for Silent Hill 🤞

I played the first game on Switch so glad I can play this on PS4 now.
Thought the first game was a bit overrated the gameplay was good & the graphics were stunning but it was a bit inconsistent in the story telling & the way the character missions were structured.

After a few hours you would know exactly what to expect. Talk to a character, use your specials for something, dungeon-> boss fight.
As for the story telling some stories are more interesting than others & that just the way it is with this many playable characters.

Perfect release date for me. A month from GOW:R. Both will Day 1’s.

Skull & Bones...what an appropriate name 💀 🦴

Don’t care for Marvel too much so missed that. Did tune into Ubi Forward, which was an absolute waste of time. The only thing I cared about was AC Mirage which was 3mins of cinematics.

Also couldn’t help but be distracted by how the presenters were skewed...given the recent allegations.

I do think the ‘direct-style’ is the way to go on. Initial excitement aside it never made much sense to me for all the publishers to battle it out & share the limelight during E3 week. Coming out most people only ever discussed a handful of games and everything else got buried for the rest of the year.

@get2sammyb Benzema has always been class. Always had to sacrifice himself, but now it’s his time to shine. Ballon d’or guaranteed.
I don’t think anyone on that’s list is as good as a pure footballer as Benz (not including the 2 goats at their best of course).

I think the biggest head-scratcher here is no Modric in the top 23.

Ehmm ‘Mirage is set in Baghdad, so it wouldn’t be unusual for there to be some kind of in-universe minigames, potentially inspired by historical wagers or gambling games.’

I don’t think the place or time matters in any way in this case.
AC Syndicate was set in the late 18hundreds. Pretty sure they had some historical wagers & gambling back then.

Anyways no chance this remains. No platform holder apart from steam allows AO games. Also given they allowed for pre-orders to go live they must be confident the game will come to market so they just edit or remove whatever got flagged by the ESRB.

Just got the platinum in DBZ Kakarot. Would’ve got it last night night if it wasn’t for one trophy that was glitched as I started the game without the latest update. Deleted the game, downloaded the update started it again & got the trophy within 10mins. Probably wasted a good 5hours on that😔.

I’m also playing Afterparty which is really fun. I’m pretty much at the end & it’s been one hell of a ride.

Phil should’ve come out right away & said that COD would leave PS eventually.
Instead he said it would remain on PS being intentionally obscure due to the legal reasons & having to portray ‘good-guy Phil’.

MS own Activision-Blizzard now. They paid a lot of money for them. They have no obligation to PS or anyone. Just be upfront.

Jim might not have been the most professional with his statement but else can PS do when team Xbox is saying contradictory things.
Maybe he should’ve gotten one of them leakers to spill the story instead 🤷‍♂️.

Personally speaking I haven’t played a COD since Infinite Warfare so this doesn’t affect me much, but I will miss Diablo.
