It wasn't far off being a very good game. Just a little too slow and clunky with a fairly average story. Better controls and a revamped story it could've spawned a sequel.
If I hadn't played Alan Wake Remastered I'd be happy with this but I have done and its disappointing. Feels like playing the same game as when it first game out (one of my all time favourites at that point). But they haven't improved this version enough to make it worthwhile.
Great month. Frustrating for me personally as I only just bought JW Evolution 2 about a week ago. Thankfully it was a physical copy so I'll not lose much on it. Life is cruel, but not too cruel.
Surely there must be a way of giving them away for free which doesn't cost the company anything. Even if they just told people where to go to collect them I'm sure alot of people would travel a good distance to get free Pops.
I'm surprised by the results in this poll. The spear is by far my favourite, to the extent that its my default for all combat situations and I'll only switch if absolutely necessary or for puzzles. Spear FTW
Still unsure about Bella Ramsey, but then again we've seen next to nothing of her in the trailers so my opinion is based purely on my preconceptions of her.
Don't tend to like horror games, Dead Space was the last horror series I really played all the way through. No surprise to myself then that I really like the look of this and will be getting it day one! Looking forward to playing this as the nights draw in early.
More reason not to bother with the below standard PS4 versions of anything now. Go all out on next gen for all upcoming games and we will all be better for it.
Half will get pushed back to 2024 because the chappy PS4 versions are taking longer than expected to finish and once again those of those who have PS5s are held back from playing proper next gen titles due to developers not being able to let go of the PS4.
Get us some new First Party games and all will be well again. Oh and buy T2 while you're at it. I'd love to see the Xbox lot crying about GTA being an exclusive PlayStation game.
Only one reason I bought the physical PS5 version and that's because when I've finished playing it I'll trade it in/sell it and that version is worth more.

Re: Poll: Do You Think GTA 6 Will Release on PS4?
If it does, I may refuse to buy it. Boycott GTA 6 . For 24hrs anyway.
Re: The Battle for Game of the Year in a Superb 2023 Begins on Monday
Baldurs Gate 10000%.
Zelda was shown up big time.

Re: Poll: Will You Be Muting Your PS5's Beep?
Won't be muting it. My dog enjoys the beep both when turning on and turning off. I'll miss the little head tilt he does far too much if I muted it.
Re: Rumour: Immortals Fenyx Rising Sequel Canned by Ubisoft
Good. Such a poor game, plays like something from 2010 it doesn't deserve anything more to come out of that IP.
Re: 18 More Games Join PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
Extremely disappointing.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for July 2023?
If I hadn't played Alan Wake Remastered I'd be happy with this but I have done and its disappointing. Feels like playing the same game as when it first game out (one of my all time favourites at that point). But they haven't improved this version enough to make it worthwhile.
Re: Blade Runner 2033: Labyrinth Marks the First Game Made by Annapurna Interactive
Wow wow wow wow...wow.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for June 2023 Announced
Great month. Frustrating for me personally as I only just bought JW Evolution 2 about a week ago. Thankfully it was a physical copy so I'll not lose much on it. Life is cruel, but not too cruel.
Re: Be Both DJ and Detective in Killer Frequency, an 80s Infused Murder Mystery on PS5, PS4
Tbh I'll buy anything Team17 does. I think they do some really unique stuff. I'll be trying this out for sure.
Re: The Last of Us' Naughty Dog Already Working on Next PS5 Exclusive
A new IP would be great. TLOU P3 can wait for now.

Re: Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Gets Blistering Launch Trailer Ahead of Impending Release
Wait, this isn't the game I thought it was. I was confused seeing a human main character.
Re: Reaction: Sony Continues to Fumble the State of Play Format
I just wasn't interested in many of the games they showed that's all. Nothing against the format or presentation.
Re: Iconic Rhythm Game Beat Saber Will Break Bricks on PSVR2
Well that's me buying PSVR2 then.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite God of War Ragnarok Weapon?

Re: Hogwarts Legacy Delayed to April on PS4 While PS5 Version Goes Gold
The sooner they learn the better. Sack off the previous gen versions now for all AAA games.
Re: The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt - Complete Edition (PS5) - The Perfect Excuse to Replay a Masterpiece
I'm not playing it a 4th time. Got plenty of other things to play, I understand why they've done it but I'll not be bothering.
Re: Silent Hill 2 Remake Announced, Will Be Console Exclusive on PS5
Looks alright. A foggy Resident Evil remake more or less. Doesn't inspire any sort of excitement about it just yet.
Re: HBO's The Last of Us Ellie 'Encouraged Not' to Play the Games
Still unsure about Bella Ramsey, but then again we've seen next to nothing of her in the trailers so my opinion is based purely on my preconceptions of her.
Re: PS Plus Premium Adds Three-Hour Dying Light 2 Trial on PS5, PS4
Can't see it on the list at the moment. Is it restricted to certain territories only?
Re: The Callisto Protocol Dev Talks Game Length and How Beta Paths Provide Replay Incentive

Re: Begin Building Your FUT 23 Team Now with FIFA 23's Web and Mobile Apps
@Cherip-the-Ripper
I'd say I got roughly the same. Considering the prices of players in the early months its barely anything really.
Re: Begin Building Your FUT 23 Team Now with FIFA 23's Web and Mobile Apps
Rewards are a bit rubbish in all honesty. Can't wait for Football Manager to release on PS5 so I can put more time into that instead of FIFA.
Re: FIFA 23 Ropes in Ted Lasso, AFC Richmond for PS5, PS4 Soccer Sim
Good bit of fun. Why not. I like this.
Re: Get Square Eyes Staring at the Gorgeous Dioramas on Display in LEGO Bricktales
Need more LEGO games like this and Builders Journey.
Re: Assassin's Creed Is Dropping PS4 with Infinity's Red, Hexe, and Beyond
Finally! About time everyone started planning this way.
Re: Grey PS5 Console Cover, Controller, and Headset Revealed by Sony
@nomither6
I meant specifically the camouflage design. It's not exactly cutting edge or modern. I'm surprised Sony have decided on it. It's very tacky.
Re: Football Manager Gets a PlayStation Console Port for the First Time Ever
Surprised its taken this long. Will definitely get this in the next couple of months.
Re: Crystal Dynamics Now Owns Tomb Raider, Legacy of Kain Franchises
Got to bring back Soul Reaver surely. That's ripe for a reboot.
Re: Best Indie Games on PS5
Cult Of The Lamb should be on this list also.
Re: Gray PS5 Console Cover, Controller, and Headset Revealed by Sony
Have we time traveled back to 2008. People don't still like this do they?
Re: Enormous Appetite for PS5 Pro Pad As DualSense Edge Trends
Playstation has been starved of proper Pro controller for so long. Its about time .
Re: Yes, Black Myth: Wukong Continues to Look Utterly Sensational
Very excited about this. I'm hoping it will meet expectations that are being set. Could be one of the best if it does.
Re: Play Far Cry 6, Including Its DLC, For Free This Weekend
I'm assuming then it'll be availible from tomorrow at 8am?
Re: Sony Announces PlayStation Stars, a Free Loyalty Scheme for PS5, PS4 Fans
Sounds good to me. Pleased they seem to be moving forward in their approach lately.
Re: Rumour: Skate 4 Reportedly Ready for Full Reveal in July
Love a good skating game and I can't skateboard in the slightest! Just feel the vibe for it.
Re: UK Sales Charts: Horizon Forbidden West Back on Top, 95% of Copies Sold Were PS5
More reason not to bother with the below standard PS4 versions of anything now. Go all out on next gen for all upcoming games and we will all be better for it.
Re: The PS5, PS4 Release Schedule in 2023 Is Officially Ridiculous
Half will get pushed back to 2024 because the chappy PS4 versions are taking longer than expected to finish and once again those of those who have PS5s are held back from playing proper next gen titles due to developers not being able to let go of the PS4.
Re: Season: A Letter to the Future Cycles onto PS5, PS4 This Fall
I'm intruigued, not sure what to think of it. Looks cool but what is it.
Re: Sony Is Still Gaming's Second Biggest Money Maker, But Looks Set to Be Overtaken
@Rural-Bandit
I think you missed my sarcasm. But thanks for the LENGHTY response.
Re: Sony Is Still Gaming's Second Biggest Money Maker, But Looks Set to Be Overtaken
Get us some new First Party games and all will be well again. Oh and buy T2 while you're at it. I'd love to see the Xbox lot crying about GTA being an exclusive PlayStation game.
Re: Star Wars Day Discounts PS5, PS4 Games from a Galaxy Far, Far Away
Lego Skywalker Saga should've been included. Even if it was 10% off I would've got it.
Re: Rumour: PS Plus PS5, PS4 Games for May 2022 Leaked Early
Everyone that wants FIFA already has it. What a poor choice if true.
Re: PlayStation Boss Promises More Acquisitions Are Planned
Wonder if it could be FromSoftware? That would be huge for sure.
Re: PS Plus April 2022 PS5, PS4 Games Announced
@WizzNL I have a great memory, this is definitely the worst.
However its all subjective, so calm yourself down.
Re: PS Plus April 2022 PS5, PS4 Games Announced
Not read the comments but I'm assuming most feel the same as I do. This is by far the worst month i can ever remember!
Re: State of Play Showcase for Hogwarts Legacy Coming This Thursday
Now this is something to look forward to.
Re: PS Plus March 2022 PS5, PS4 Games Announced
Decent, I like them all
Re: In the UK, 70% of Boxed Horizon Forbidden West Buyers Paid More Than They Needed To
Only one reason I bought the physical PS5 version and that's because when I've finished playing it I'll trade it in/sell it and that version is worth more.
