@LiamCroft oh God that was a waste of my money. By the end I wished I had joined the Rapture.

Tekken 7 still 3.99 . I bought Valfaris for 8.99, well worth it.

@Dr-M I hope it reviews well 🤞

@danlk1ng yeah hope so, thanks. It was only my experience will Pro Evo that gave me pause for thought.

Liam, do you perhaps know if I were to play the PSPlus version of FFVII will the game save work with the digital or physical version I can buy?

I ask because if I can't upgrade to PS5 down the line I don't want to start a game on the PSPlus version.

Also from experience when I had Pro Evo on disk and then swapped to digital, the game didn't recognise my settings save file.

@3MonthBeef agreed. But this isn't a GaaS. All the content will be in the game. Theres no roadmap, no DLC planned. There shouldn't be the issue like with Anthem where the content is anaemic, there's quickly nothing to do and you're waiting months for new content.

@Dr-M 👍if I can I will certainly tell you what I think of it 😊

@bpomber it has been? Gahh!

Played the demo and agree there are issues with cut-scenes, dialogue missing and poor lip synch. The game aethtically looks like The Division but worse.

But the combat has lots of promise, enough promise to not make a judgement on it yet or let the roughness of the issues mentioned to influence my judgement.

I would gladly put up with non game affecting problems, or a stupid premise if the gameplay and combat is fun and engaging. Playing this on my own was pleasant enough, playing it with others really made it sing. The Mass Effect style synergy with your powers when other are present were interesting. And the promise of interesting builds in the skill trees gave me reason to hope.

I think what I really, really liked about it is that its not a GaaS but more like Borderlands so its already ahead in my book. People have to be careful not to compare it to games like that.

I'm amazed you've already come to the conclusion that the demo has killed your hopes for the game. It is rough, the hub space was dull because you expect to see other players milling around like in Destiny/The Division, the story is nonsense, but the gameplay was good enough to wait and see how the full release is received.

When you read about people who have had extra access to the game ita clear from their experience that the loot system is nothing like Anthem. It appears to be very well thought out and actually useful. Some of the armour sets look the part but more importantly have interesting status effects that add to the game. As do weapons. Its really more like Borderlands than anything else.

I'm most looking forward to the Terminator: Resistance free upgrade.

Really? Surprising. For me it was Sifu. Though I've got to admit I can't stop thinking it's called Stfu 😊

@Voltan @Bliquid https://www.reddit.com/r/Eldenring/comments/lvahpw/fire_breathing_dragon_trailer_soon_my_last_post/

@TheDudeElDuderino absolutely, you're right dude. I agree both positions are assumptions.
When applying logic however one scenario is much more likely than the other for the bulk of a 4000% increase in my opinion

@Voltan https://twitter.com/Shpeshal_Ed/status/1366391585403904002

Not the clip mentioned in the article i don't think. Is this what you saw?

@ScottyG yes agreed. This site often reads more like a Twitter feed than a professional gaming website. The constant two-paragraph delivery of rumours and/or filler articles serves to dilute what could be a great site to a decent one.

I read this site because it seems to have a friendly community and staff who engage with them. That's a huge plus point. If they could just aim more towards quality reporting the site could be special and really stand out.

Could be Square games or Enix games. Or even Taito games! Bubble Bobble remake!

@Medic_Alert did I say it was wrong? I questioned why you asked it not that you were wrong to ask. The article gives a much more logical answer to why sales have gone up. Your hypothetical for a 4000% rise wasn't backed up by logic that could explain it, hence I wondered if you read the article.

@Bliquid I appreciate it made you feel good and I respect your view 👍 I don't agree that ER was ever in danger of not existing.

@johncalmc 👍 genius. SEGA will never notice, the fools 😆

Whats the point of this article? To let us know there's a bit of a trailer that we all know exists and one day will be shown but we can't see yet, that another site has seen but can't publish? This is the kind of non-article PS doesn't need. It labelled 'News' but that isn't really the case. Its gossip. There's a great site here that needs tightening up by going for quality over quantity. Stuff like this is tabloid-level, let it be beneath you editorially.

Honest feedback, I always want this site to improve.

Sega patented the big green arrow from Crazy Taxi after making the game. Is that patent still in effect?

@B-I-G-DEVIL @theheadofabroom @quintumply

Thanks for the answers.

@Medic_Alert admonishment? Hardly. I just pointed out its illogical. Read the comment again, take away any bias you want to attribute to it and you'll see its just two strangers talking to another with no reason to be disrespectful or condescending.

The article may be making an assumption but its not based on thin air. Its a very reasonable assumption that fits the facts and also fits the pattern of behaviour and the expected outcome of a product getting a heavy discount.

Quick question, is the PSPlus Collection still available?

@wiiware its far from disappointing storywise. Your opinion is not a fact, its true for you.

@Medic_Alert did you read the article? its primarily down to a big discount.

By your logic, last week, new PS owners coincidently decided to buy TLoU2 in the same week. Whilst that may account for a few sales, its not going to account for a 4000% boost.

@vhsodre just need a virtual visa or barclays pingit card. Or get it from India/Brazil, similar price

Sammy this is exactly the kind of stuff we want. Well done mate, great piece.

@leucocyte not got any PSN accounts set up in different regions? Like I said, its only £27 equivalent at the Turkish store.

Why does clicking on the previous article on this subject bring us to this article instead? We can't respond to comments from the first article.

Its a good price. £40 is the RRP so at launch I'd expect retailers to sell at around £35. Reasonable. I'll wait 2 weeks where it'll be £30 or a month by which time it'll be £25.

Edit: oh bollocks, it's digital only

Fine. Turkish PSN store has it for £27 😊

@djlard exactly mate. Good times. Wouldn't swap it for anything.

@get2sammyb

"I hope anyone in here complaining bought No More Heroes Allowed VR and Knack 2 at launch! But we all know only about 500 people did, so...

The writing has been on the wall for Japan Studio since the PS3 days, when there was a famous Kotaku article about the absolute state of that entire team. They brought in Allan Becker to fix it and it doesn't seem like it panned out.

Obviously this is a shame and disappointing news....."

Then why not do an article breaking this down? I agree with you that the internet just vomits out the bare-bone facts without any critical analysis. Your post is a perfect start for a really good exposé on the decline of Japan Studios; its far more informative and interesting than the article itself. Its exactly the kind of thing your feedback article asked for. I'd greatly appreciate you flexing your journalistic muscle and giving us a great piece on this subject please.

@ThroughTheIris56 christ, its worse than I tonight then. Americanised....

/shudders

@Floki even better news. Must mean they'll make the game as good as it can be on the new machines.

Come on Sony. Don't get too westernised. Keep your great library of diverse titles going. We don't need another Microsoft clone infrequently belching out the same tired exclusives.

@Floki weird. You'd think they'd make it for Series X if that's the case. I'm doing ok with Demon's Souls, Spider-Man and Pathless. Astro Room was a delight too.

@LordSteev yes agreed. The lighting looks nice, hard to say if there'll be any RT, but there was nothing there that made me think it could be done on a PS4. There must be more to this. Why release on Switch and PS5? Someone is taking a bung 😄

@djlard id take 33 seconds of disturbance every 10 minutes over 20 minutes of loading with no guarantee i won't have to load it again if I even so much as breathed towards the tapedeck as it loaded 😭😄

@Jacko11 yeah. Its was just me ranting at how rubbish gets attention like it matters. In effect I've done what those gamers have. Where's my article? 😄😄👍

@nessisonett it was my hope. I can't think why else they'd chose PS5 over PS4. After all PS5 could probably play it too anyway.

This has to be good news for PS5 owners because that's a lot of potential sales they're going to lose not bringing the game to PS4. I hope that means the PS5 version is going to get such a major upgrade that it can't run on a PS4.

@nessisonett no, the game is not unplayable/the boiler isn't broken. It would be more like you complaining because you had to wait 5 minutes for your central heating to heat the entire house whereas when I was young we only had a fireplace so the whole house was never warm, only the rooms you could build a fire in, and even then it took a while 😊

Rant incoming....So what? Who cares? Seriously, why do we give any attention to what a few divs on Twitter say about a video? They have to wait 33 seconds? Get used to it. I used to have to wait 20 minutes for a Spectrum game to load, and even then it wasn't guaranteed to work!

I feel better now, thanks PS 😁

The Spanish Inquisition.

May as well give it away free to play. I still won't play it, but they may as well.

@Robinsad 😄 fair enough.

Baldur's Gate is finally on sale for £21.59 PSPlus price or £23.99. Brilliant games, all the DLC, over a thousand hours of content and progression carries over from the first game into the second. The writing and characters are top notch too.

Its not been on sale before digitally and this is cheaper than you can buy it for physically by at least a tenner.

@BloodNinja then wonder no more 😊 There's a class action law suit because of the awful warranty law in America (and its a high profile product, lawyers will love that 😊) They don't have the statutory rights like we do in the UK. The retailer isn't liable, the manufacturer is, and after 3 months they don't cover faulty goods unless you bought a protection plan.

We don't see law suits over here because we have better consumer rights. Class action law suits are ten-a-penny over there. Theres even currently one against Google for not fulfilling their promise of 4K gaming on certain games 🙄

@BloodNinja but you pretend to know its a widespread problem because drift has been reported on? Nobody has the real figure of how many dualsenses have failed compared to how many are in use. Without that knowledge everything is anecdotal. So I understand that you don't accept people telling you its not a major problem but I don't see how you can consider your opinion that it is to be verified or valid.

Youre just arguing the other side of the coin, you're no more proved right than they are until we get to know the actual, official failure rate.
