This was a punch to the gut! I was so excited to see this one, Rocksteady were a dev you could count on...
This looked like everything I hate in modern gaming. Which then got me thinking about Playstation & how they bought Bungie for this sort of rubbish, & the amount of live service games they are currently working on.....doesn't exactly fill me with confidence.

Unless you own stock in Microsoft, who gives a *****? This is a Playstation site & you are getting the game (though I doubt most here even care about it).
Its like shooting fish in a barrel, no wonder the push square team does it so often🤣

Doing all night shifts this weekend, but took my PS5 along with me to play Hogwarts.

Rubbish. Man on man what absolute turd water this gen has been, & the PS5 kicked off with such a bang too. Now to see Rocksteady making 3rd person Destiny is a real kick to the nads.

I'm keen, but also cheap. I'm going to wait until the next days of play sale & hope for a discount😁

This sounds pretty sweet to me😁 I was hoping for some VR with TM, it would could be mind blowing.
Controlling your character & vehicle is intriguing....is it like Starhawk/GTA, or will it be used for story aspects/upgrades, like Destiny? 🤔 or both? Or something else entirely?
Either way, very keen to see!

You guys are way too concerned with what Xbox get up to. If Xbox shut down tomorrow I'm sure the Tumbleweeds would be flowing down the streets, then gaming would continue as usual.
Keep it playstation guys😉

People in Japan are buying PS5's to live in them, then play their Switch. Cheaper than an apartment I hear.

In a follow up message, Phil Spencer thanked Glen Schofield for thanking Motive.
I've only played an hour of Dead Space, had me right on edge, good stuff!

Once Sony realises they can't make a TV show or movie off this one they drop it soon enough.

Ah that's a ahame. I miss the bombastic E3 weekend, it was just so much fun watching with friends, seeing all the announcements & surprises, reactions from the crowd, etc.
Geoff Keighley's borefest just isn't the same. And I'm not the biggest fan of the state of play/Nintendo direct, where the host sounds like a kindergarten teacher addressing the class.
Ah well, it was fun while it lasted.

I'm all over this, will be getting it sometime this week. The world needs more 3D platformers!

Oh that's awful, I'm so sorry to hear this

I'd rather see a Horizon/TLOU crossover, where Aloy is constantly on the run from clickers because she won't shut up😅

@ShogunRok thanks! Though now my mind is racing at the possibility of a cat being behind the game's entire plot🤔

@ShogunRok possibly a spoiler, but does Frey reunite with her cat Homer? (The poor little guy)

Yeah I bought it. I only played the original for an hour or so. Hopefully this sells well enough for the franchise to continue.

Yes, for the love of god. They haven't had an original idea since the PS3 days, essentially taking away one of playstation's biggest strengths in the process: fresh & exciting new IP's every gen. We need a shake up, it's really boring at the moment.

It'll be some constipated looking dude holding a bat

Not a chance, Spongebob is out next week!

I bought Dakar Desert Rally on the January store sale, will be giving that a crack. And still chipping away at Twilight Princess for the Gamecube. Enjoy the weekend!

Nah, I'm good. It's time for some new ideas & IPs. It's just Assassin's Creed Tumbleweed at this point.

If you place it on a 45° angle, it sprouts liquid metal arms & legs, punches you in the shins & chokes your Gamecube

I'm really looking forward to Spongebob, love a good 3D platformer.

Happy new year to all the great staff and readers here🙂
You are all awesome, such a great community here

Hopefully after this & Spiderman 2, Playstation can pull their finger out & create some fresh new experiences again like they used to. Ragnarok was a solid 7-8/10 game. The way people crap on about the story & acting more than anything makes me think it should've been a Telltale or Quantic Dream title! Haha imagine that😅

Not feeling the buzz for PSVR2 at all, or hearing it from others. Got a bad feeling about this....

@Jmerbaugh don't forget Persona 5: Shopping With Your Mum, Persona 5 Ragnarok, Persona 5 Cocomelon Edition, Persona 5-2, Persona 5: DLC All Night

One of the most beautiful, yet boring games I've ever played. Sony need to pull their finger out, all their games this gen are about as fresh as a moudly cabbage!

This is the game of the year, no doubt about it. Nothing else touched it.
Ragnarok was awarded 10's before most reviewers even pushed past the title screen. Either that or most value pretty graphics & dodgy stories over gameplay (although I believe this has been the case for years!)

Ragnarok was good, but just more of the same. How people can say it smashed their expectations is beyond me. It's not like going from Ocarina Of Time to Majora's Mask, it's like going from God Of War.....to God Of War. Which, once again isn't a bad thing, but man the way you guys carry on you'd think its 1996 again & Mario 64 just came out.

I'd love if Sony had been secretly working away at a killer new IP, ready to be unleashed next year. Bring back the creativity & magic to Playstation, all these sequels & remakes are so boring!

CDPR?! Really guys?!
A couple of updates to old games should not get you on the podium.
(Plus they're a bunch of lying scumbags)

Eh, it was a good game but some of you guys need to get your hand off it.

In the not so distant future, every video game is based on a licensed property & every movie is based on a video game....
cue 80's apocalyptic synth music

The art style of the game in general is hideous!

I love me a bit of Street Fighter, but boy howdy do these 3D entries look like crap! (With this being no exception) It's like a bunch of Play-Doh Gears Of War characters slapping each other around

Is that the front cover of the new Rhianna album?

Spoiler: it's going to be rubbish!

It's gonna suck, just like that appalling Uncharted movie (my god that was atrocious!)
Colin Moriarty said it best: not sure why games are chasing Hollywood, gaming leaves Hollywood in the dust. They're the ones who need to catch up. All these unoriginal ideas certainly doesn't help the case.

Next gen? So PS6 level visuals?

I promise, it'll only feel like an eternity this time!
Plus Kojima is only getting a 15 minute spotlight this year, to promote his new line of selfie filters

@BlackMayge congratulations to you!
I hope you have a fantastic wedding🙂

I don't mind at all. They gave players a big game to end the year on, which is uncommon for them (Especially one of their tentpole releases). Give me a game to play over a bunch of trailers & phony promises anyday! I hope this becomes a new, better tradition: big new release just before the holiday season😁

Buying this today😁

It took me 2 weeks and 1 day. I had a jolly old time. Did Atreus remind anyone else of Peter Parker or was it just me? Haha

I'd like to see them make something like an older 3D Zelda game (Ocarina of time, Twilight Princess). With big dungeons, puzzles, unique items. Nobody is making these games anymore, it's crazy (not even Nintendo!) I felt the slightest whiff of this in Ragnarok, I would love to see what they could pull off if given the chance.

PS plus as a whole stinks. Just give us free online play, or at a heavily discounted rate. You can keep the rest, it stinks.

Man does this look like crap!

I'm playing 007 From Russia With Love on Gamecube. Never played it back in the day, so far its quite fun. Having Sean Connery voicing Bond adds so much to the experience. EA had a good thing going on with the 007 licence in the early 2000's shame it had to end.
