A snow track wasn't what I'd hoped for but it's better than nothing. the upgrade to SOPHY is nice too.

A DLC was inevitable and you'd know that if you finished the game and saw the epilogue. It's more than likely Wizard of Oz themed.

Not to mention the overgrown Stargazer.

One of my favourite games of all time. I'm really hoping the movie delivers and lives up to the expectation!

Yeah, no thanks.

Regardless of what these upcoming games are, given FromSoft's track record in the last 15 years, you know these games are going to be incredibly well polished and they're going to absolutely slap.

@AldusRavencorn A ‘24 hour day/night cycle’ exists in the game already, doesn’t it? Albeit only on a select few tracks.

I agree with pretty much all of the other points you’ve mentioned. Those would be a big update, not seven cars. 😂

Sorry, but adding seven cars that even fewer people are going to drive is not a big update.

Happy 500!

I’ll be playing Baldur’s Gate 3 this weekend, along with some Hunt: Showdown and Honkai: Star Rail!

It's probably a lose-lose whichever way they go with it. Either they put a price on it, or it gets labelled as 'live-service' and people won't touch it.

I gotta admit, the design of this is really cool. I like it a lot.

Do yourselves a favour and play Hunt: Showdown.

This is one for all the apes and monkeys to fling their faeces at.

Sadly, by writing this article they’re getting exactly what they want.

They can go head-to-head all they like. I'll still play both.

Weirdly, I think they're planning a 'sequel' (think Overwatch 2) and this block to player trading is only temporary as they prepare to move all items and such over to the next game. Perhaps putting a hold on player trading might make things easier to transfer over.

I could be wildly wrong, but that's my theory nonetheless.

Oh my God. This game was absolutely unreal back in the day. I might have to back this…

Maybe ND are going to do what they did with Part I and re-release Part II but with less content and costing more.

I never knew I needed this. But I need this.

Anyone who has finished the game and has seen the epilogue could tell you a DLC was coming, not to mention the overgrown Startgazer. It was obvious.

It's also more than likely a Wizard of Oz crossover given the Dorothy reference.

Honestly, after playing the first one, I'm not bothered in the slightest. Slinging webs around New York is fun but the combat got boring after about twenty minutes.

Not having a go at anyone interested as I'm sure you'll enjoy it, but hard pass from me.

Maybe Naughty Dog and Sony should sort out Factions 2 before remastering this dross.

I thought this looked really bad. Then I realised I was watching the video in 480p. What a melon. 😂

Been on my wishlist for a while. Looks really good. Hopefully it delivers!

@get2sammyb I'm incredibly envious. Wish I could have gone!

I haven't played an Assassin's Creed title upon release since Syndicate. I like the look of this. Not an immediate day one but I plan on getting it sooner rather than later.

@Cherip-the-Ripper Yeah, you pretty much get Hunt Dollars after every mission, even more so if you extract with a few kills or a bounty token.

Yeah, that boss on Lies of P was quite annoying! Took me a few hours to kill! I’m on NG+ currently. 😅

@Cherip-the-Ripper Regarding losing your hunters, you don’t need to re-purchase the DLC every time to get them again, so you’re not spending £10/$10 every time to use them. Instead, they’ll cost 200 hunt dollars each time you want to use them (hunt dollars being the currency you earn by playing the game), so you’re not necessarily losing out in the way you think you are.

Hopefully the current-gen upgrade coming next year will give us PS5 and Xbox users the ability to team up together which, if that happens, I’d be happy to join you for some games.

A lot will have changed if you last played over two years ago, so it might be a bit daunting to get to grips with everything, but it’s a cracking game, in my opinion. It’s so tense!

@Perturbator @Cherip-the-Ripper It is hard with a controller, but the skill level of players of this game on PC is on another level.

I wouldn't worry too much about MMR or Prestige levels. I've played against 20+ Prestige players who couldn't hit water if they fell out of a boat, and players who are Prestige 0 who can land a headshot from 200+ metres away. I'm Prestige 5 with over 500 hours in the game and I'm still atrocious.

Also, regarding losing your Hunter if you die, you can get a new free one after every game, so it's not that much of a loss really. You could also play quickplay to try get some free gear to take into Bounty Hunt if you're strapped for cash.

Remember: 'Hunt Giveth; Hunt Taketh Away.'

That's actually amazing. Brilliant stuff!

@Boucho11 When did you last play it? They have UI changes coming with the PS5 version so it'll be more navigable.

I'll admit it is a bit of a hard game to get into. Even after 500 hours I oftentimes miss the simplest of shots, but it's a really fun game - especially if you have folks to play with.

I noticed this on the PS5 store a couple weeks ago. The trailer looks really good and it looks like a fun little roguelike.

I've been saying for years that this is the best FPS game on the market, and it's about to get even better. This game is brilliant and there have been a lot of improvements since its initial PS4 release. There is also the new event which starts this week, adding some new weapons, which is awesome!

EDIT: Also, David Fifield has a tremendous beard.

It's easily a 9/10.

Tokyo's awesome. I can't wait to go back again.

Should've been in the game in the first place.

The Callisto Protocol is well worth it on a free. Decent enough game.

Yeah, Sony, live-service games are definitely the way forward...

This game looks great! I'm sure it'll be a lot of fun. One of my most anticipated!

@trev666 That’s not the point though. Games shouldn’t be releasing in an unfinished or half-assed way in the first place. It’s the fault of those making the game, not the player.

Lies of P. I beat the King of Puppets last night after a couple hours of trying. I’m loving the game so far. There are some really cool weapons in the game that I really want to try out in future playthroughs and some of the outfits and masks are really cool too!

@trev666 People are hating on it because it’s released in such an awful state.

One of my most anticipated games this year and it hasn't disappointed. A vast improvement from the demo when I played it however many weeks ago.

Don't get drawn into the Bloodborne comparisons and you'll have a great time.

I’ve had this on my wishlist for a while and the video embedded in the article backs up my reasons why. This looks awesome!

It'll probably have a battery life of about six seconds.

@romando They are crap though.

It’s an overhyped series anyway. The last two were pretty crap.

Baldur’s Gate 3 for me this weekend, of course!

I also picked up Marvel’s Spider-Man to see what the fuss about the sequel is. It’s okay so far.

Oh, and I have to avoid Lies of P spoilers until Tuesday.

That's Hollow Knight Silksong delayed for another five years then...
