It was really nice seeing the guy who came up with this at the game awards. Seems to mean a lot to him. I don't think it's going to do very well though.

It's dead in the water. Pun intended.

This would have been canned long ago if it weren't for the government of the Philippines. Yet another pile of live service drivel which nobody wanted and nobody will miss.

I was interested in a Dune game then I found out it's a live service so nope. Not for me.
Saw Dune 2 on Sunday. It's a masterpiece. Possibly the greatest film I've seen in a cinema.

Lost Planet 2 walked so Helldivers 2 could run. Yeah, I said it.

Should be a good news for both people who bought it.

I always said that if DS2 came out before DS1 it would be regarded as a masterpiece. It's a great game with a lot to love. There's nothing particularly bad about it, it's just maybe too big for it's own good.

Awwww they must be really upset that people didn't fall for it. My heart absolutely bleeds.

@Lyedecker nice Avi my man. Good to see something us older gamers will get a bit of a flashback from!

Still haven't managed to get a game since Sunday. It's annoying of course, but if they're true to their word on not having predatory mtx and pay to win, I'm still glad I bought it. It's gonna run for years so I can wait. There's always BG3 in the meantime.

Is Helldivers any good? I've booted it up five times today and been told the service is at capacity. Nothing quite like paying 35 quid for a game I'm not allowed to F@££&ING play.

@Pat_trick this is my favourite comment on this site, ever.

The poll results on this one must make grim reading for Ubisoft 😬

I'd love to play the master chief collection on ps5. It sounds nuts but seeing as the MP has cosmetics etc it's not a bad idea to make them some money on an old game. Used to love the campaigns back in the day.

Calling On The Beach a Fred Astaire movie is selling it a bit short. It's a harrowing watch. One of the greatest films of its time.

It ain't a musical!

It was always going to fail as soon as they started chasing the LiVe SeRViCe crap. It'll fail and it'll be a well deserved failure.

Best thing they showed in my opinion. No live service nonsense or panderverse garbage. Just pure gameplay. This is exactly what we need.

This is going to absolutely bomb. It's so bland looking.

On the off chance that anyone hasn't seen this absolute masterpiece; https://youtu.be/0tdyU_gW6WE

Just give us a single player experience that's not terrible. Other than that I don't care.

I was playing Destiny 2 for hours daily up to Rise of Iron coming out. Then the mtx and nonsense got out of hand.

It was added to ps plus a while back with one of the later expansions (beyond light? Light fall? They all seem to have similar names now), and I couldn't play for five mins without popups begging me to buy more add ons, currency, skins, and other nonsense. I gave it a few hours then just uninstalled.

If this is how it's become then I'm sorry but they've brought it on themselves and the more these business practices continue the more failure they'll see.

Marathon is dead on arrival and it looks like they've managed to kill D2, not to mention TLOU Factions as well.

Sorry folks, but you are very much in the "find out" part of the deal from the way you have treated your loyal fans.

@JohntheRaptor nah they have a really good story. It's not something I'd want to spoil for you but it's pretty weird and very smart. Those games were way better than they had any right to be considering the budget.

Easily my most replayed ps exclusive and one of my most proud platinum trophies. It's a faultless game.

We need a remaster of hard corps uprising. That game was too good.

@Perryg92 can I come and live with you please? I'll cook!

Not really my thing this game, but I'm not gonna bash what I don't understand. What does need to be said is that you'll never look smart getting your knickers in a twist about some cartoon dinosaurs and their gender identities and sexual preferences. Come on, you're all better than that.

KIDS THESE DAYS WITH THEIR SCALES AND SNOUTS AND WORM DRAMA IT WASN'T LIKE THIS IN MY DAY LET ME TELL YA

Great. I get stung but at least I make some capitalist vampires richer. SO COMRADES, COME RALLY, FOR THE STRUGGLE CARRIES ON!!!!!!!

I was fully intending to buy this day one, but I got a Nintendo Switch and bought a bunch of games on that so I'm going to beat them first. I love my ps5 and have been with Sony since PS1 but the portability and the fact that my girlfriend's kids have Switches means I'm not really on the playstation much at the moment. I'll definitely get round to armoured core at some point but I'm not in any hurry.

"It remains unclear why Mr Cena went to such lengths to bring us this news"

Money. It's money. Top bloke though and I'm not knocking him.

If you can afford ps vr 2 despite it being doomed to fail then you can probably afford 25 quid for this.

@SoulChimera SHAKE N BAKE BROTHER!

TIME TO TUUUUUUUURRRRRN TO THE LEFT SOMETIMES!!!

I don't really like card based games but from what I've heard, Inscryption is a bit special so I'm looking forward to that, and FC6 because I love Chorizo and want to befriend him.

I'd probably like this if it wasn't Avatar. At least let us play as the humans with the cool mechs! I don't care about all the heavy handed environmental stuff. I play video games to escape our inevitable climate doom.

Not even remotely interested in starfield or baldurs gate so I'm definitely picking this up. Time for another playthrough!

Really we should just forget that 6 exists and remake code Veronica. After village I'm looking forward to what they do next as that was absolutely superb.

Wake me up when a non open world single player splinter cell reboot gets announced. Until then they can stick their radio towers and mission bloat up their assassins.

Reminds me of someone I dated for a while. Looked great and seemed like the next big thing but just reminded me how much fun could be had elsewhere.

@playstation1995 this man knows his hip hop. It's not my favourite genre (though lord knows I love some Wu Tang, Nas, Outkast, Kendrick, and Biggie) but even I know Weezy has been a bit of a joke for some time. Still, it's going to make him a few quid and won't detract from the game itself so what's the harm?

@nessisonett as a big metal fan I'm the first to admit that the fanbase can be a little overzealous at times. Just look at the hatred piled on Ghost and even Opeth's later material. Two objectively talented acts with great songs and superb production and instrumentation, but because it doesn't sound like a biscuit tin full of flies being screamed at by a Karen on Buckfast it's deemed "pop". This is why I don't tell people how much I love Tool. A minority of their fans are just terrible.

I sincerely don't believe he'll be a playable fighter. His special move would be to wheeze at someone, drink a pint of something he shouldn't and then fall into a coma.

Having just got home from an absolutely wonderful couple of days spent with my partner at their place I'm currently trying to shake off a hangover with Scott 4 and a coffee before turning on the ps5.

Once that happens I'll continue the slog through Horizon Forbidden West. It's stunning to look at but between Aloy's interminable internal monologue and the endless mashing of triangle to pick up loot I'm really not getting the hype.

@KundaliniRising333 yeah buddy. I stand by that. Endlessly replayable and deep mechanics. It's something you can pick up and play for five mins or five hours and never gets boring.

@KundaliniRising333 exactly what I thought when it was announced. Then I played it. Then after that I played it in VR. Trust me, it's one of the greatest games of all time.

I'm playing it at the moment and absolutely loving it, but the ray tracing mode really does slow the whole thing down. It's like a slide show compared to the performance mode.

Seems like nobody talks about Blood and Truth anymore. That was probably my favourite VR game. That and Doom VFR.

I'd like to lend my support to the theory that PS didn't get a copy due to it's adherence to honesty in reviews. The fact that the site frequently has to remind casual readers that a 7 is still a good score bears that out. It's also the reason Push Square has been a daily check in for me for the last ten years.

@NEStalgia yikes. I didn't know that was the case. Tbh I've only seen a couple of trailers and it didn't appeal to me at all, but I'd be lying if I didn't feel some small amount of shadenfreude after SE pulled that crap with Avengers being a live service, whatever Babylon's fall was, and their attitude to NFTs.

Based on Writing on Games' review this looks like it could be monumentally bad. I'd find it funny but the actor who plays Frey is likely to get a heap of abuse from the usual scum online and she absolutely doesn't deserve that. Bad writing and a horrible character is not the fault of the actor.

@ItsBritneyB_tch I'd say on the whole it's the best book due to the pacing and the overall story hitting it's stride, but yeah the third film isn't the best.

Axiom Verge 2 is a winner for me. Absolutely loved the first game.
