I find Sara Bond's throwaway quote about new hardware being "largest leap in technology between generations" such a classic piece of MS marketing nonsense.
Well they've got that cylindrical disc drive less one in the pipe and they seem to want to jump on the handheld bandwagon, but I don't think we'll see a true next gen PS6 equivalent from them.
Be nice to play the early Gears and Halo games again, but in recent years there has been absolutely nothing (save Hi-fi Rush) that has made me think 'I wish I could play that'.
Wow, how saddening this is to read. Giving death threats because you haven't heard about had any updates to a game you've bought.
This is unbelievable behaviour, what's wrong with these people. Are they festering this daily rage until suddenly they effectively burst and have to send a vile message??!! Poor devs, they produce a wonderful game and this is the thanks they get. I just don't understand.
"That's because the additional parts of enhanced re-release Persona 3 FES and PSP port Persona 3 Portable aren't included — and so we're still stuck with four separate incarnations of what is essentially the same game. Knowing Atlus, there's always a chance that Reload itself will get a re-release down the line that could include FES' expanded story, or Portable's female main character — but we can only review what's in front of us, and right now, Reload is a near essential remake."
And that's exactly why I'm not buying it, got burnt before with P5, P5R and then PS5P5R. Golden opportunity here for Atlus to do same thing again here.
@get2sammyb Hi Sammy, I'm going to Taipei this weekend (yay!). Itinerary includes the mall under Taipei Main Train station and the area around Ximen, but I was wondering if you had any other tips of shops or areas that are pretty cool game related that you've discovered please?
Do the plumbers always turn up late? Do the plumbers give you a list of unnecessary work that 'has to be done' to increase their time and cost? Do the plumbers buy parts that are then found to not be needed but do not give you back the refund for the part? Do the plumbers come round to give a quote for work and then charge you an hours time for the quote even though they didn't actually do anything? Do the plumbers continually bungle the jobs, leaving other new problems that they'll come back and fix 'another day, but I'm a bit busy at the moment'?
This quote is pretty incredible I must say, obviously a huge talent. 'infiltrated Rockstar Games while under police protection, using just an Amazon Firestick, a mobile phone, and a Travelodge hotel’s television.'
Which means I have trouble believing this, 'Despite being diagnosed with autism, a judge found that his extremely high aptitude for hacking and willingness to repeat offend meant he must remain in hospital indefinitely.'
It's most likely a press cover story as I would expect our good people at MI6 to give him a job.
I just wish SEGA would package up all their arcade emulators from Yakuza etc and pop them into a lovely package like the Atari50 collection or even the Megadrive classic collection. There are so many there already done, they just need to make a nice interface and include a nice bit of history for each title and I'm sure it'd fly off the digital shelves.

Re: Rumour: Gravity Rush 2 Remaster Dropping onto PS5, PC, Reveal Coming in May
Best news of the day!
The first one was great on Vita and had a lovely 60fps PS4 version , so to see the sequel coming at hopefully 4k60fps will be lovely.
Re: PS Plus Premium's Cloud Streaming Is Much, Much Better Than You Think
MS use Series S versions??!?? Why!?!!!
I mean they are all virtual machines and surely the bandwidth could handle series X too?
MS and another bad decision there, amazing really. Instead of offering the best experience they offer the worst version, it's really weird!!

Re: Poll: Which Xbox Franchises Would You Buy on PS5?
Quite like to see Gears of War (especially 1 again) in 4K 120fps with good HDR and WCG, would look lovely.
Starfield can remain connecting Phil Spencer's and Todd Howard's asses together.
Re: Poll: How Do You Feel About All of the Xbox Multiplatform Rumours?

Re: PS5 Exclusive Stellar Blade Dated for 26th April on PS5
Well I've had my eye on this one for a little while, but that video popped it out my my head, looks incredible.
Not sure whether the combat is more Devil May Cry or Dark Souls, seems a bit of both but looks fantastic.
Right up my street!
