According to Playstation, I'm 80% done with Indiana Jones and the Great Circle and I think its excellent 9/10.
It looks and plays greatly on the Pro.

I feel like Devolver Digital released so many other games that should be in their top ten. Like where is Fall Guys? Inscryption? Deaths Door?

Im playing it. Im 3 hours in and its pretty good.

Secured mine

Death Strandings acronym should be STG = Strand-Type Game

So Death Stranding 2 is STG 2

If one cannot see the sheer potential of The Order 1886, one got to be blind

Hope you guys do these polls for every month. They're fun.
Not sure if you did those last year after January and February.

I have bought Like A Dragon Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii and Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 but only played Like A Dragon Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii so my vote goes to that.

I have never played any of the series but I appreciate that community. They seem super passionate.
Always was happy for them.

Sony should have never put their games on any other platform period.
Im not saying this horrible ports makes me smile, but it does.

Call me up when they offer a steelbook.

@ApostateMage You think anyone who give up their calculator for that? Please set realistic expectiations.

I never noticed they were trying.

Yikes. If Shadows fails, itll be super ugly

Lost Soul Aside
Saros
Tides of Annihilation

btw whoever voted for Day Gone, can suck it

Pre-ordered, pre-installed, pre-pared.

My first brand new game of 2025.

Thats the aftermath of the success of the Playstation 4.
It had built so much momentum in its cycle, it carries it into the Playstation 5 era.

I don't care what anyone says, Prince of Persia The Lost Crown is a masterpiece. I bought it day one, played and platniumed it. Plus I copped the DLC The Dark Mask, which was a great expansion to the vanilla version.

It still hurts me, the studio with so much talent got shut down.

Where the ones trying to tell me Sony Playstation isnt full of incompetence?
Another one cancelled!
The entire higher ups at Sony Playstation are holding the wrong positions.
They are overpayed and under deliver.

Once they hire smart people, I consider applying to fix that trash they have been producing.

I'll be there day one regardless.
I hope they go all out offering a Steelbook.

Nobody important cares for Bend Studios.
But Bluepoint is a bummer.
All their work in the last decade was fantastic.

Bend should have been shut down after the embarrassment that was Days Gone

@PuppetMaster Because they obviously only hire pure incompetence.

I said it a thousand times before, Sony cannot support several hardware at once.
Focus on one and one only.
They make so many obvious mistakes, its crazy how much disconnection and incompetence holds job positions at Sony/Playstation.
Give me 5 years at that company with full executive powers and Sony/Playstation would be 1000 times its current worth.

Of course, it does. Only an idiot would say otherwise.
All gaming platform compete with each other, in one way or the other.

If one console manufacturer convinces a gamer to spend his/her time on its platform, he/she spends less time on any other. That alone is competing over consumers time.

Kind of crazy he even needs that much time to begin with, considering how fast Kojima Production was developing the first Death Stranding.

@captainsandman yeah thats super weird hiring a lead designer just now.
What have they been doing the last 2-3 years.
I expected them to a have a game to come out this or, at latest, next Year.

I love the Welcome Hub.
It makes it feels more social and connected and less isolated.
Seeing what my friends playing.
What their latest Trophies or Activity are.
Having the News of following games right there for me to catch up on.

Awesome addition to the Playstation experience.

As a passionately Nintendo hater, I hate to admit it, but Nintendo was, once again, ahead of its time. Playing games on a stationary TV and then SWITCH to a mobile handheld at any point is the future.

Sony just now fully learning and embracing that while MS might have something similiar to it, is the absolute proof of it.

Rebirth is on the right spot.

Animal Well was amazing. So is Nine Sols. Even though Im not done with it yet. Its an incredible Metroidvania.
The Plucky Squire seemed good but lost me around 3 hours.

Ive got to take a look at the other games.

Its a superb JRPG. Better than P4 but worse than P5.
Im glad that Remake exists. I missed it when it came out and wouldnt have played it otherwise.

@twitchy_emu92 The sole reason the PS2 sold that well was because of the disastrous PS3 launch.
The PS2 sat at around 100 million units when the PS3 came out. Due the countless isssue of the PS3 ( 1 Year after the 360, the high price point, unstable network, No First Party Support, third party games ran much worse than on the 360 etc)
People, especially, in Europe and Asia kept buying PS2s. And were waiting for Sony to fix the PS3 problems. So in order for Sony to beat the PS2 sales with the PS5, they have to mess up the PS6 launch

Last gen games shouldnt be on that list. Thats just poor.

Thats highly impressive. Im a Playstation 5 Pro owner and I have [Redacted] on my Wishlist but with these news, its an Instant cop.

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.

Astro God for the Win

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

This year has been very good.

@somnambulance Nice list bro.

All over Silent Hill 2.
What an outstanding game it is

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.

Dead Space is amazing but I already own it.

Well lets hope that list is inaccurate.

I really hope I get one. Although, the process probably wont be fair.

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.

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.

Easy 10.
One of the very best platformers Ive ever played.
Team Asobi is the fututre for Playstation Games now.

I liked the first one. I even platnuimed it so Ive got my eyes on the sequel.

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.

Im on Like a Dragon Gaiden The Man Who Erased His Name.
Its pretty much like the previous Yakuza Games - and I love it.
