@RBMango I may play it if 'free' or a £10 upgrade for folks who have the PS4 version

I loved Until Dawn and j guess if they're remastering for pc, they may as well make a ps5 version while they're at it. What on earth is the point of a film of what is essentially an interactive movie? Who's that even for?

I love how FMV video games have made an (admittedly niche) comeback.

@Korgon Once Horizon gets it's full trilogy, I'm fine with GG doing something new (or old as it were)

Didn't the story go a bit off the rails in 2 & 3? Maybe a full dead space-style remake of KZ1 with the potential for a rebooted 2 & 3 with more grounded plots would be a cool idea.

Imagine how many Greed Fall's, Robocop Rogue City's and Plague Tale Innocence's you could have made for how much this rubbish cost.

@carlos82 Imagine how much fun doing that again and again for literally ever will be? Destiny 2/Apex Legends/Fortnite fans will all drop the games they've sunk hours into and flock to this is drives, you mark my words.

Well Anthem, Evolve and Avengers said all this stuff and they're all money-printing powerhouses, now. So I'm not worried. Can we please see the reviews for this game ASAP so we can all move on?

@Blacksmith1985 I'm guessing a PS5 is a good £200 more than a PS4 at least.

@JSnow2 When even Destiny 2 is getting shaky, you know live services are hitting their peak.

Looking forward to Jim Sterling's take on this game...

They should get the other Brian Cox to do it, too

@Splat I'm certain Sony would have saved a lot of controversy by just calling it 'Director's Cut'

To be honest, if a fairly major video game just gets given a release year, it'll probably end up being released late that year due to internal delays etc.

There's a lot of fairly old games on my PS4 wishlist with no discount at all...

Shame, none of the indie titles on my wishlist have got discounts...

I have nothing against each publisher having their own online presentations (and have no nostalgia for E3 whatsoever), but why can't publishers at least release them in the same week in June? Why are they now spread out from June to September (or more)?

God knows why anyone would want a 'career' (can it even be called that?) in video game development after this year.

I notice that $70 sometimes means £70 and sometimes means £60. A bit of a difference.

@bozz It's very good. Plus it uses reinforcements and not base-building

@Fiendish-Beaver Spoilers for video game announcements? Isn't that just news?

@PixelDragon So am I. I'll never take RE/SH fans concerns too seriously after I saw an RE fan moaning that the RE2 remake was going to be bad because Ada Wong was wearing a coat in the rain.

I think this will be a good-to-great modern remake of SH2. (Why are people worrying about Bats track record on story stuff when the OG story, or it's broad strokes, will be used?) However, I bet die hard SH fans wanting everything except the graphics to be exactly the same will be disappointed.

@zupertramp Could be, Devs getting frustrated with Konami as a publisher doesn't sound unlikely to me, at all

I'm still confused that they didn't call it a 'Director's Cut' to sync with Ghost of Tsushima and Death Stranding

@trev666 I really enjoyed all four entries. I'm glad I bought all the episodic titles once they were all released, though

I do agree with this, but I wish we had a proper example of what PS5 (non live service) exclusives we can expect in 2024.

@Northern_munkey What's Joe Public who only buys FIFA, COD and occasionally AC isn't going to do, not buy the new cod?

I'm reasonably interested in the SW, but I couldn't care less about Avatar

Where's the 'yes, but only when I've seen what Digital Foundry have to say' option?

When do the people who voted 'yes' think this game will be released?! The PS5 might be five years old when it comes out.

I really hope they make their own Bond (Hopefully based at least partially on the book characters) but at the same time there are 'costumes' to look like the other Bond actors.

Hmm, so to be guaranteed the new model, you'll probably have to order the bundle

Why they didn't secure those old Eidos IP and Western Devs from SE, I'll never know. Tomb Raider would have been an obviously good PS exclusive.

Failing that, I'm guessing a merger with one of the big Japanese publishers would make sense. I think someone like Amazon or Disney will end up buying Ubisoft and/or EA.

@Nintendo4Sonic We'll have to wait for the likes of Digital Foundry to know that for sure

@Beerheadgamer82 My guess is the PS5 slim with disc will drop to £400, and the pro will be at least £150 more than that.

I'll see what the tech analysis types think of it, first. I really want to know how hot, loud and power consuming it is. Also, I know we'll never know this, but I'd love to know if it gets a(nother) die shrink to be shrunk some more

@sanderson72
Now that's interesting. No die shrink would be a good reason to not even unofficially refer to this as a 'slim'. How were they able to reduce the size without a die shrink though? Would a die shrink be possible for the PS5?

Will the new model use less power?

Selling the stand separately is crappy, and I'd expected it to be £100 cheaper than it is. I'd be interested in a direct size comparison with the original, though

@ShogunRok I like the sound of that. Also is there a codex or discovery tour to learn more about Baghdad?

Does is have a 'home base' like the older games? How grindy is the skill tree and weapon upgrades?

@Jayslow Yeah, JT seems to be more of an enhanced port than a full remaster (and is obviously miles from a remake). That being said, it seems to look a bit better than the 7th gen and the 60fps option is very welcome. I'll probably get it on a sale.

@Titntin I agree. The PS5 is selling like hot cakes, so the guy's doing something right. All these 'Sony need to make me specifically happy and excited or the entire company will fail' think pieces are ridiculous. That being said:

1. Sony 's radio silence on non-LS stuff is bizarre
2. I'm not sure release so many LS games over a relatively short period of time is a good idea.

@themightyant For sure. I play Europa Universalis 4 for God's sake. The game that's received god knows how much DLC. I buy it (on 50% sale) because it's a fun game and each DLC gives me at least 20+ hours of play.
The issue is, even as a massive strategy game nerd, I am never going to also throw money at a game that's selling point is: 'A bit like EU4'.

@Powerplay94 Even to cover the (presumably major) financial losses on 8 failures? I'm genuinely not sure about this logic. Especially as: a) GAAS seem to be incredibly fickle and I already see people calling them a 'fad'.
b) Sony have Bungie and Destiny. Let Destiny work their GAAS magic for those that want it. Maybe release a couple of GAAS MP games for franchises that it'd work for and leave it at that.

Does anyone honestly think 'MT-ridden quirky heist simulator/massive map Sci-Fi FPS #24' is going to grab peoples attention?

@Howson79 To be fair, I'm not sure I want announcements for stuff 6 years out, either. Still, it'd be nice to have at least a vague idea of what's coming out in 24/25.

Lord knows if it was due to Jim Ryan, but Sony's weird radio silence still baffles me. I can only think of two reasons:

1. Sony don't want to announce stuff too early, so we'll get SOPs in say March and Sept each year starting in 2024 that only cover the next 6 months

2. They're withholding loads of stuff for a sort of '2nd console launch' announcement extravaganza when the PS5 Slim and/or Pro release.

@MagisterMagi Worse, 10 GAAS before a certain year. My maths and memory may be rusty, but I think those targets would have needed Sony to release 2-3 GAAS games a year?!

@Yinx Agree 100%. I never bother to look beyond my wishlist at this point
