Mostly good if you like Yakuza games, if not then it’s not great. I am looking forward to Ghost Recon Wildlands though, exactly the kind of game I’d play and enjoy but never actually buy, so a good fit for this kind of service.
I know I’m against the majority but I’ve never been able to get into one, finding them generally quite poor. But I love the high-praise that the series from fans, so I’m glad to have these on the service to try again!
Have really enjoyed getting back into it but I wish they’d fix the PS5 trophy issue. Either a separate list of auto-pop, not some grey area broken list.
My Now expires at the end of May, and my Plus in December, but I managed to find a 1 month sub code for Now yesterday and apply it, which went through fine for me.
The words ‘Day 1 patch’ always make me cringe. So much so that the term ‘gold’ doesn’t mean anything to me now. I’ll consider this ‘gold’ when it’s been out 6 months and patched to a decent state. Not to say that this won’t be decent when it’s out, but I’ve been burned before so I’ll wait and see.
I have zero interest in old games. I don’t want to pay again for hundreds of games I’ve already paid for and played already. I’d be happy with just a merge of the 2 platforms and a bigger range or games to download.
Realistically I think that’s what we are getting, along with more older games added to that model.
Also played it recently, great game - but suffers from a similar issue to a lot of these service type games where they just drop you in it with no real explanation of what to do or what is going on so it’s a tad confusing at first.
I love the current PS Now, I’ve never streamed anything but just download them instead. Instead of getting 2 games a month with PS Plus I can get hundreds with PS Now. I don’t know why it isn’t more popular.
Clearly just released it early so they didn’t have to test it themselves. Why test and find bugs in your own games when paying customers can do it for you.
I did the training and liked it but was annoyed when I couldn’t play bots. Then when I did go online, all I could find were bots and the AI was dreadful, I just spent ages running about looking for balls and other players with none of the AI ever throwing balls.
I’m a fan of the series, but essentially it’s just more of the same. Seems little difference between 3, 4 and 5. Just a different lunatic in charge and a different island. I’ll play it but down the line when it’s cheap.
I love these sorts of games but too often the menus and text are far too small to read. Couldn’t play Frost Punk, Surviving Mars or Sim City recently because I just couldnt read the tiny UI properly. This looks cool!
Shame, looked good but I’ll give it a miss. I don’t have time/patience for hard games these days. I respect that they’ve made the game how they want to, but deliberately making the game super hard with no difficulty options does just shrink their audience.

Re: Sony Gates Customer Service Priority Behind New PS Stars Program
What is this customer support actually for though? I’m unsure what queries you’d need to raise to Sony.
Re: PS Plus Fall Guys Pack Gives You Free Money
Still waiting for them to fix the PS4/PS5 Trophy bug before jumping back into this! But I’ll grab this pack ready.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Rollerdrome?
Saw everything the game had to offer during the 35 min trial, and was bored by the end sadly. I felt it needed way more polish and content.

Re: Test Your PlayStation General Knowledge - Issue 15
Unholy War was a great game!!
Re: Sony Discontinuing PS5 Accolades As No One Used Them
Only ever played one game with them in, and then it seemed to be random whether you could actually give one or not.
Could have been a good idea if there was a bit more variety (game specific ones etc) and if devs actually implemented them.
Re: MultiVersus Is the Biggest Fighting Game on the Planet Right Now
I played Super Smash Bros 20 years ago and this is essentially still the same game. I was bored half way through the first match.

I liked it, but I didn’t find much to keep me playing without a big user base or progression.
Re: Fall Guys Has 20 Million Players After Free-to-Play Release
Have really enjoyed getting back into it but I wish they’d fix the PS5 trophy issue. Either a separate list of auto-pop, not some grey area broken list.
Re: PS Plus June 2022 PS5, PS4 Games Announced
Something everyone already owns, and 2 niche unappealing games. Not great!
Re: Sony Blocks Subscription Stacking As Pre-Paid PS Plus Cards Stop Working on PS5, PS4

Re: EA Sports F1 22 Races onto PS5, PS4 in July
“Biggest shake up of the decade”
EA - not to our game re-skin the same game from last year
The new F1 Life options sound painful.
Re: Unfortunately, Ubisoft Isn't Also Abandoning NFTs
I consider myself an intelligent adult, but I just don’t understand this.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy Tiny Tina's Wonderlands?
Love Borderlands and D&D but there is so much stuff out at the moment and Borderlands games are always on cheap sales so I’ll just wait.
Re: GTA 5 (PS5) - Rockstar's Los Santos Is Still One of the Best Open Worlds Ever Assembled
Can’t find this on the ps store all at all to buy! Am I being thick? Haven’t played it since the original PS3 version so looking forward to it.
Re: Test Your PlayStation General Knowledge - Issue 4
A 7? I’ll take it!
Re: GTA 5 PS5 Screenshots Bring Los Santos Back to Life
Will we get a free PS5 upgrade if we still have our original PS3 copies? 😂
Re: Disney Speedstorm is Mario Kart with Mickey Mouse, Mulan
@nomither6 I’d take a sequel to Split/Second! One of the best racers of all time IMO.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy Sifu on PS5, PS4?
Surprised to see the price of this one at release, I thought it would be a cheap Indie game.

Re: The Trailer for This Phantom Breaker Fighting Game Is So Bad It's Good
Surely a joke! Great trailer, game looks awful.
With the POWER OF 1000 SUNS!

So excited for this.
Re: Deal: PS Plus 12 Month Subscription Is Half Price on PlayStation Store for a Limited Time
I can see the discount section on there but says I’ve already purchased and won’t let me buy it again. Who knows!
Re: Reaction: Merging PS Plus and PS Now Makes Sense, But an Xbox Game Pass Competitor Can't Be Half-Arsed
I love the current PS Now, I’ve never streamed anything but just download them instead. Instead of getting 2 games a month with PS Plus I can get hundreds with PS Now. I don’t know why it isn’t more popular.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 405
Desperadoes 3. It’s so good! Definitely going to pick up Shogun when I’m done.

Honesty not sure if this is a good or bad thing!
Re: GTA Trilogy Patch 1.03 Fixes Another Boatload of Bugs, Adds 'Cloud Cover' on PS5, PS4

Re: Talking Point: Why Aren't You Playing Knockout City with PS Plus?
I did the training and liked it but was annoyed when I couldn’t play bots. Then when I did go online, all I could find were bots and the AI was dreadful, I just spent ages running about looking for balls and other players with none of the AI ever throwing balls.

Re: PS Plus Games for September 2021 Are Available Now on PS5, PS4
It’s not easy to just jump on the app and find a section with these games in, I had to search for them all individually.
Will be trying Hitman soon though!
Re: Elden Ring Nominated as One of the Best PS5, PS4 Games at Gamescom
Looking at the others for Xbox and Nintendo is hardly exciting either, bland on the horizon.
Re: Relaxing City Builder Islanders: Console Edition Puts Down Roots on PS5, PS4 This Month
