Ive planned to play it on the PS5 Pro. Everything goes according to plan. I have to finish RoboCop Rogue City first. Three more days boys. Almost there.
One of the very best Metroidvenia Ive ever played.
I got it day one same with its DLC - The Dark Mask.
The creativity of them level der designs are simply one of the greatest level designs ever. I was constantly surprised by them. Im completely saddend for these news.
This years almost over!? Time flies. January feels like yesterday.
Well, not having FFVII Rebirth in the top ten IS insane to me, but hey each their own.
My top Games:
1. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth 2. Astro Bot 3. Prince of Persia The Lost Crown + The Dark Mask 4. Stellar Blade 5. Persona 3 Reload 6. Alan Wake 2 Night Springs 7. FFXVI The Rising Tide 8. Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons
Still playing Silent Hill 2 and itll definitely be in my top 5
Backlog / Still to Buy Tekken 8 Banishers Ghosts of New Eden Dragons Dogma 2 Black Myth Wukong Flintlock The Siege of Dawn Metaphor: ReFantazio
I have finished The Last of Us Part 1, started and finished the DLC to Prince of Persia The Lost Crown Mask of Darkness after around 4 hours which took me two Sessions.
Now Im patiently waitng for Silent Hill 2. I might jump into a short game like Gris or Firewatch which been in my backlog for a long time for Silent Hill 2 just to bridge the time.
All that promises from Mark Cerny that it would take less time to develop, for the PS5 than for the PS4, was rubbish. I really wonder what all the in-house studios are doing. I used to be very bearish about Playstation 5 the last few months but Astro Bot completely cleansed my negativity about Playstation. An additional annoucement like that, would be neat. Surprise me Sony, surprise me.
I really enjoyed the Dredge content. I played, finished and platnuimed the game without tackling the Godzilla content and now 3 more content pieces at once. Im looking forward to go back to Dave the Diver.
Huh? Of course, they have high engagement. It is based on the success of the Playstation 4 though. There is a term for that but unfortunately I forgot what it was called. When a subsequent product does extremly well based on the product before it. We have seen it with movies and video games alike. The number crunchers gotta be fired immediately, if they dont know that phenomenon.
By far Sonys worst console. All the success the Playstation 5 enjoys is based on the great console Sony had with the Playstation 4. ( My fav Gen ) Crazy how a few of top executives can decide the fate of an entire Brand that been around for generations.
Lets hope Sonys preparation for the Playstation 6 is much more sophisicated and thoughtout.
Jim Ryan had a good hunch to reconstruct Japan Studios into Team Asobi. They had a killer app with Astros Rescue Mission and an absolute amazing kickoff with Astros Playroom on the PS5 launch. Now Astro Bot set to come out this very year is probably a 3 outta 3 Hits Situation. Already preordered my copy on PSN. I still think its unfortunate Sony isnt releasing a Steelbook release of it. September cant come soon enough.
Concord 0/10 I dont support games where PS Players have to pay for online access while PC players dont from a publisher that is also the console manufacturer of that very console. Second Class Citizen Treatment.
God of War Ragnarok PC -100/10 Sony shouldnt put these AAA Blockbuster games on PC. Them PC gamers cant f themselves. Sony should focus on Playstation Players and Playstation Players only. Go argue with your mama.
Dynasty Warriors Origins 2/10 I haven't played a Dynasy Warriors game for over 10 years. I dont think Im going Back to it.
Infinity Nikki 1/10 Im not a 12 yo girl.
Ballad of Antara 9/10 Looks super promising. Hits alot of boxes for me. Wishlist it as soon as possible.
Skydance's Behemoth, 0/10 I dont have VR and probably not gonna get VR.
Marvel Rivals 0/10 WTF
Where the Winds Meet 9/10 Looks Stellar. Melee. Action. RPG. Yes, Im in.
Until Dawn 1/10 Very unnecessary
Path of Exile 3/10 Not my type of game looks cool though
Silent Hill 2 8/10 Looks superb. Never played the original so Im grateful this exits giving new players a chance to catch upon History
Monster Hunter: Wilds 6/10 Not my type of game but Ive always respected that franchise a bunch.
FFXVI was actually my Game of the Year last year so naturally I got Echoes of the Fallen and I just got Rising Tides. It saddens me its the finale of the adventures of Clive Rosfield. I'll be missing him.
I expect a price hike. As the reasons the CEO mentioned. Video Games are cheap If one includes the inflation rates over the years. Everything got more expensive but video games. Aside the 10 bucks increase with the current Gen launch.
I think this year is somehow a straight continuation of 2023 so far. From games Ive played 1. FFVII Rebirth 2. Prince of Persia The Lost Crown 3. Pentiment
I had started P3Reload but put it on ice cause of FFVII Rebirth and havent gotten around proceeding it. Plus I dont count The Last of Us Part 2 in here even though Ive played, platinumed and loved it still. Gotta catch upon Rise of the Ronin Banishers Ghosts of New Eden and Tekken 8. Also I refuse to buy any game without 60 frames option so No Dragons Dogma 2 for me.
Nontheless, I think the extended 2023 stops as May hits. Aside of Wu Long nothing got my interests.
Props to Square Enix. Great launch. Even though I prefer FFXVI combat and story, FFVII Rebirth is a highlight this early year. And Im only 8 hours in at the beginning of chapter 4.
I have put Persona 3 Reload to ice and started playing FFVII Rebirth. Its good so far but seems much bigger thank P3 Reload in any way there is. I'll be with the Avalanche for a while now before returning to SEES.
I'm perplexed by the state of gaming. Everyone has reported record breaking heights yet they all prepare for the "Future"? Whats the future? Is it the establishment of A.I. into the industry so they get rid of what they consider "dead weight" after that very establishment? Very confusing. 2023 was such an amazing year and 2024 is strong in regard to JRPGs. Its all so contraticting to what has been the Last few years. I just dont get it.
Sony has never been able to support multiple hardware at once. It always surprises me that people are surprised about the lack of support for an additional hardware. And there people asking for a Sony dedicated handheld. And the same reason I consider the PS Portal ideal for Sony and Playstation.
Plot twist: Xbox never planned to go multiplat. They purposely spread fake infos about becoming third party hoping the insiders would leak it, so MS can pretend that they "heard and listened" to the fans and act accordingly and appearing as a pro fans listening company. Phil Spencer is the master at PR.

Re: God of War Ragnarok PC Review Bombed Over PSN Requirement
Sony is wasting its resources for that ungrafeful and console devaluing efforts.
Theres no way the PC ports are profitable anyways.
Fukk them PC gamers.
If they want games, they can ask Valve to make it for em.
Sony owns em nothing.
Re: State of Play Rumoured for This Month As Sony Looks Set to Skip PS Showcase in 2024

Re: $70 Games Are Just a Phase, Believes Saber Interactive CEO

Re: Video: Our Favourite PS5 Games of 2024 So Far
I think this year is somehow a straight continuation of 2023 so far.
From games Ive played
1. FFVII Rebirth
2. Prince of Persia The Lost Crown
3. Pentiment
I had started P3Reload but put it on ice cause of FFVII Rebirth and havent gotten around proceeding it.
Plus I dont count The Last of Us Part 2 in here even though Ive played, platinumed and loved it still.
Gotta catch upon Rise of the Ronin Banishers Ghosts of New Eden and Tekken 8.
Also I refuse to buy any game without 60 frames option so No Dragons Dogma 2 for me.
Nontheless, I think the extended 2023 stops as May hits.
