Too little too late. This game should never have shipped in 2020.

From the very first reveal I honestly couldn't care less, but I'm glad for everyone who will now (hopefully) get the properly functioning game they paid for.

All you dudes talking about graphics and I'm sitting here grinding kills in Far Cry 2 with a SCART rather than a HDMI cable. I am lost in time.

Look at the Trophies for Killzones 2 and 3, they've been needlessly including the requirements in the titles for well over a decade.

BIG.
MOMMY.

@Kidfunkadelic83 get Madden 18, nice and cheap with a reasonably enjoyable story mode. Maddens 21 and 22 are busted.

So.... do trophies unlock during the trial?

SEGA did just offload their arcades, although I'd prefer them to be independent forever. If someone really does have to buy them, then let it be Sony.

Not worth 85 bucks when I can play the game with a subscription for a month elsewhere :^(

Gorgeous Steelbook otherwise, glad they contracted a Japanese artist for this one.

Please for the love of God nobody buy SEGA. Only way I'll ever step away from gaming is if Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio's games go exclusive some place that isn't Playstation.

Couldn't care less about Destiny, feel like the money could have been better spent elsewhere. But I'm happy for PS Destiny fans.

Didn't care before release, still don't care now. Just never caught my fancy. Hope people finally get the game they wanted.

This sadly makes SEGA more interesting for takeovers by certain companies that would otherwise have no interest in the arcade business....

Can't wait to play the entire saga from Episode I to Episode VI!

@lolwhatno Not mine either, but we're all united in the face of hijinks like what Rockstar is pulling

@lolwhatno no, it's used correctly; clearly, what the customer deserved was up for debate at the Rockstar offices when you consider the final product.

One look at these character designs was enough to turn me off. Lucid are probably better off as support devs to Studios that have better vision and execution.

These wonderful games deserved so much better.
Arguably, so did the consumer.

I don't think I've ever bought a Activision game new in store (and never ever a Blizzard game in any way, shape, or form), so it's not like my choice of games as a Playstation owner is now becoming a lot slimmer.

But this is obviously a huge blow in the larger scheme of things. Sony cannot compete with Microsoft, and never will be able to. Economies of scale. Believe me on that, as someone who works in the Microsoft ecosystem. Keep doing your own thing, and rely on being who you are. Squenix or even SEGA are peanuts compared to Actiblizz, don't waste money on buying them in a blind panic.

Actually, maybe do buy SEGA because the Yakuza games going exclusive would actually bring me to tears.

Golden Abyss for me ngl, it's portable.

More Trophies please. I can't muster up the strength to play games anymore unless it involves TROOPHING.

Sega rocks, and this is going to make them better, so who doesn't care really?

Reddit jannies (they do it for free!) are being a bunch of wusses, imagine my shock.

EDIT; McNamara closed the replies to his Tweet to all but his mutuals lmao.

Trophies in paid DLC = bad
Trophies in free DLC = good

Still haven't gotten around to my Plus version of Wreckfest, but I definitely will this year.

Multiversus and TDU are the only ones I'd touch outwith of PS Plus down the line, and even those are dependent on the Trophies.

We'll also get Yakuza 8 / Yakuza Like A Dragon 2, of course. That's Day 1 for me as per usual.

Deserves its place on the list but was ultimately a weaker offering than Hitman [2016] and Hitman 2, making it a disappointing end to the WoA trilogy.

RIP, the man who made football understandable and accessible to so many.

Can't wait for EA to 'honour' him with a set of Super Ultra Turbo Diamond Mega Platinum Madden Ultimate Team cards in Ruby Galaxy Sigma Alpha Papa Card Packs(tm) for the low price of 99,99 USD per pull (excluding taxes + tip).

My impression of Discord is that the majority of its userbase huddles in extremely weird subculture servers. Lots of groomers and coomers too. I'm big on laissez-faire moderation usually but I'd like very tight regulations in this case.

Gotta point out that the image for Hitman 3 is actually the Steelbook cover of 2, and was never used in the promotion of 3.

Wonder how our friends at the CCP would react to certain parts of TLOU2. Not entirely favourable, I'd imagine.

I am once again requesting a Yakuza game (to dump the Platinum rarity percentage).

I was playing the PS2 port of GTA III this morning (which I bought before R* pulled it from the store) and honestly, apart from the lack of a minimap, it really didn't need the Definitive treatment. Holds up pretty damn well for a twenty year old game, no wonder it ended up being so incredibly influential.

Played this during the free weekend, would not pay for the game - let alone a battle pass scheme.

Whenever this topic comes up I just default to 'Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio's latest'. Easiest question I get all year, every year.

Did we really need another Matrix movie?

Nothing I truly hate, which is really rather rare. The whole Godfall thing is a bit weird, and it had better not receive DLC Trophies eventually because I refuse to support Gearbox.

They didn't scrubb off the Vita, did they? Or have the handle 'coincidentally' placed over it?

Is the Sims playable on PS5 again? An update earlier this year made it crash within minutes of starting it up.

LEGO makes this month worth it but whether I play it depends on how expensive it will be to get all the Trophy-featuring DLC packs. There's quite a few of them so this is hardly going to be a fully free game for me.

EDIT: Looks like it has been on sale for as little as three Dollars/Euro, which is reasonable. If they'd be kind enough to drop it to that level again when the base game hits Plus, I'll happily pick it up.

'Realistic recreation of Japan'

I will now buy your game.

Also, I hope this comes with some real nasty Trophies. SASO all Elusive Targets'd be a nice Gold.

Shouldn't that also be 'anti-semitic remarks made by Azeem Rafiq'?

@nessisonett Carpathian Mountains is a high? Really? I'd say a proper sixth map for H3 is more than welcome.

Hopes: any Yakuza released after Kiwami 1, any game with a fun and rare Platinum

Fears: PS5 indie shovelware plus niche sports title (e.g. PBA Pro Bowling) plus ill-conceived multiplayer game that will shut its servers in 2023 (cough First Class Trouble cough)

I'll probably end up redeeming none of the games again, had that happen for a few months since resubbing.

@LiamCroft something else regarding these games that deserves an article; Vice City's Platinum is unobtainable. The horrifically ill-advised 'Take The Cannoli' Trophy pretty much required a rubberband exploit in the PS2 versions, was changed from Gold to Silver for the remaster (proving that GSG were aware of its existence and are happy with how ridiculous it is), and was broken in the process - people are meeting the unlock requirements but don't get the ding.

Check PSNProfiles' stat tracking, both versions of Definitive VC have this issue.

Honestly don't know who is more rotten; FIFA or EA. Match made in heaven in that regard.

Rockstar's mistake was pulling the originals only after announcing the Defective Trilogy, giving me and countless others the chance to snag them before they were delisted. Now I''ll never have to settle for the half-assed remasters when I want classic GTA on my PS5.

I am once again asking for a Vita sale

I think this is a fair appraisal even if I might have gone with 5/10 myself.

I've seen other publications award higher scores on the basis that 2042 'has potential' (and the title here does refer to that), but games need to be reviewed based on their current state and not on what might be added in the future. I'm glad that mantra has been espoused here.

I was almost tempted.... if I could start downloading right now. But they won't let me, I assume. Waste most of Friday downloading it only to play it for a few days at best or realize it's garbage really quick and deinstall.

One angle that has been neglected; millions of people still shelled out full price for this game (I assume) - wonder how they feel seeing everyone else get a free weekend in what is perhaps still the launch window.
