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.
@KundaliniRising333 was just reading the 'Rise of Ronin' thread where you got told off for not ever saying anything positive. Well I now bear witness that you do mate!
Would love to see a proper SEGA arcade collection, take the emulators from Like a Dragon/ Yakuza and drop them into a Retro tour package like the Atari 50 collection.
@AnVold @Nalodart
Yep was going to say same thing, and then probably wait to get the PS6 Golden/Royale/FES/P3P version which will not have an upgrade path from PS5.
@Contimaloris @Bez87 oh I totally get the point, I was just being flippant that it was a big pile of crap being removed that if anyone had bought in the first place then they probably have more money then sense.
But yes, the point is this is the same as a publisher coming to your house and taking your books away that they published.
Unfortunately it's the way now though and has been going on for more then 10 years, for example you can't leave you iTunes purchases to your loved ones when you die, they belong to Apple. Only you are purchasing a licence to play them. So the whole thing about inheriting your parents record collection is eroding to become a thing of the past.
Tell you what, go read the list on the link and think to yourselves like I did, "Somebody bought a season of this?!!!"
All the shows on there are terrible documentaries or reality shows.
I guess someone, somewhere must enjoy 'Cake Boss | Season 8' or 'Finding Bigfoot | Season 9' but I think Sony is doing the world a favour by flushing this pile of crap down the toilet.
I really enjoyed RE5 at the time, I remember it was the first after RE4 that allowed walking AND shooting at the same time, was quite action heavy and great fun. Shiva's AI was pretty poor though so that could well do with the upgrade too.
However, I want to see Code Veronica redone first please!!
This is actually pretty cool, they could have given a basic key on a disc, which then would allow you to download the game and play, but only if the game is in the drive. However by shipping on 2 discs, it proves you are receiving the complete game on disc, and probably a very highly patched version too rather then just v1.0.
Its a nice thing, but you can just plug a dualsense into an android phone via USB (and now new Iphones I guess) and run up the remote play app for the same experience.
As mentioned earlier there are a few 3rd party remote play apps out there but personally I've not had any trouble with the official (free) one.

Re: Persona 5 Series Collectively Takes More Than 10 Million Hearts

Persona 5 also came out on PS3!!
I think it's one of the few games that's straddled 3 console generations!

Re: Disney Doesn't Think It Was 'Overly Exclusionary' to Cut Planned PS5 Version of Indiana Jones
We felt like it's still going to reach a broad set of folks, and we felt, financially and strategically for the game, that made sense at the time.
Now backing the horse in third, way behind the front two.
I bet that they don't think decision makes sense now (not that it did really then either).

Sigh... another one to add to my pile of shame by the looks of it.
Re: New Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio, and More On the Way in Huge SEGA Announcement

Re: Fortnite Completes Transition to Full-Blown PS5, PS4 Platform with LEGO, Racing Games
LEGO Fortnite, now that's a money magnet if ever there was one.
I wonder now if we have a generation who now spell 2 week period as Fortnite rather then Fortnight... another example of modern language changes.

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for December 2023 Announced
Well I'm happy in one regard in that for once it's 3 games I don't actually own!!
But then I realise why I don't own them in the first place...
Might give Sable a look though.

Re: Sony's PlayStation Replay Patent Could Be a Genuine Game Changer
One of the best bits of the Control second DLC was it let you replay the Ashtray Maze level repeatedly if you liked.
Always thought that was a great idea and think this would be great if you could create your favourite game 'bookmarks' (or 'gamemarks' if you like).

Re: Video: PS Portal Unboxing Gives Us Our First Look at Sony Handheld
I want to if you login to you ps+ account into it, or you just remote onto whichever PS5 is on your network.
IF you login to your account first then there's no reason you couldn't use the PS+ streaming on it instead of remoting to your PS5 first.
SONY will really be missing a trick not to align this product with the new streaming service, it just seems perfect for each other.
