Mostly interested in Unravel. My daughter and I really enjoyed the demo. Just had a scout around and I can get Unravel Two for her Switch for £20 from Argos of all places!
Really hoping someone over at Namco and Sony picks up the Sinden light gun tech at some point. It's very clever, precise and does away with the need for infrared tracking!
@Octane I suspect the catch will be a fairly robust season pass offering. I expect that like Spider-Man, chunks of what Respawn have put together has been earmarked as DLC from the get-go.
@WanderingBullet I think it's going to be akin to the Jedi Academy style.
@PS_Nation it doesn't really matter who is involved if EA hasn't taken the drubbing they got from Disney over Battlefront 2 on board. They're more than willing and capable of taking a great project and turning most interested parties against it.
"We have no meetings or meeting rooms, no career counselling or appraisals. We don’t track holiday, people take as much as they need, and we all work a 4 day week."
Tried Borderlands 2 again - really not my thing. That said, it doesn't run at all well on the Vita - but nothing about the style or presentation grabbed me if I'm honest.
Easy setting and accessibility aren't really the same thing.
But, I honestly think it depends on the game and vision of the creators; arbitrary difficulty scaling would potentially diminish the appeal of a game.
I don't want Ikaruga to be an easy task for example - I know I can get so far without using a continue, I know I can reach the last stage before I'm overwhelmed and that the only way I'll go further is to dedicate myself to it.
When it comes down to accessibility, video modes, controller adaptation etc should all be considered.
@get2sammyb I read the review before I bought it. Whether through updates since launch or just personal taste, I can't really tally the review to the game I've been playing other than bits of the presentation getting repetitive.
It's as deep as you want it to be, or not. Looks and sounds good, control is incredible too. And there's an astonishing amount of content there.
It'll be quite an interesting breakdown if the detail becomes available.
Of course I do buy digital, but generally only if there is no physical option or the digital release is significantly discounted in a sale.
Of the PS4 physical releases I've bought/been gifted recently, only 3 have been brand new shop purchases (Ace Combat, NHL 19 and Grip), picked up Spider-Man through trade.
@SirRealDeal sounds like the Google Play policy. It would be good if Sony did that too, but this will be a small steps thing. The level of shovelware on mobiles and potentially vomit inducing experiences with Oculus are more in need of that sort of policy though.

Re: Rumour: Mortal Kombat 11's Entire DLC Roster May Have Leaked
I'd love to see what they do with Spawn!
Re: Castlevania Anniversary Collection Release Date Announced, Full Lineup of Games Revealed
@darkswabber Yeah, after the release earlier in the year - no way they were going to include them here.
Re: Poll: What Are Your Thoughts on the PS5?
No hype per-se, but the BC news is good enough.
Still on my launch base PS4, so if it survives - I'll not get a PS5. If it doesn't, then I will.
Re: The Massive EU PlayStation Store Spring Sale Just Got Even Bigger
@tomassi WD2 for that is pretty good.

Re: The Massive EU PlayStation Store Spring Sale Just Got Even Bigger
Battlefront II is tempting for 8 quid for the single player alone.
The Unravel bundle too for a tenner.
Re: PS Move Poised to Persist into PS5 Generation

Re: Capcom Home Arcade Is a Plug and Play Arcade Stick with 16 Built-In Games
Once it's hacked - it could be worth it. It's certainly a very nice thing.
But 200 notes for 16 FBA games and some nice controllers is pushing it.
Re: Capcom Teases 'Special Announcement' Coming Tomorrow, References Alien vs. Predator
just seen what it is!
200 notes for 16 FBA games and a dual stick set up!
Re: Sony Has Just Revealed the PS5, Not Launching This Year
So, finished of the Wired article.
That genuinely sounds mental!
Re: Sony Has Just Revealed the PS5, Not Launching This Year
Ray Tracing and an SSD?!
How much are they gonna charge for the thing?!
Re: Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Is a Single Player, Story-Driven Experience
@Octane and at least a 1 in 48 chance of getting it!
Re: Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Is a Single Player, Story-Driven Experience
@Octane I'll colour you in diamond-studded gold paint if it is! 😂

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 267
Totally, actually, really going to finish off Spider-Man then head out in Elite: Dangerous 🤘🏽

@NintendoFan4Lyf name of my sextape...
Re: The First Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Artwork Has Leaked Online
@ApostateMage
I get TLJ dig, but Star Wars is very much about a princess flying through space... like, first scene...
Re: The First Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Artwork Has Leaked Online
@WanderingBullet It certainly has it's fans. I thought it was great, but I was but a child!
Just think Force Unleashed but with a lot more depth.
Re: Random: These Are the Best (And Stupidest) Recommended PSN Names We Could Find

Harsh.

Re: The First Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Artwork Has Leaked Online
It could be great - really, really great... and it probably is, we just have to wait and see how 'EA' EA have made it.
Re: Guerrilla Appears to Be Making a Multiplayer Game
Killzone in the style of M.A.G.!
I'd buy that for a dollar!
Re: Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain - EDF Is Back to Its Best
@bindiana urgh...
Hopefully PlayAsia will save the day...
Re: Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain - EDF Is Back to Its Best
@bindiana Yeah, £50 on the store - not sure if it's getting a physical release actually...
Re: Earth Defense Force: Iron Rain - EDF Is Back to Its Best
@LiamCroft Great review Liam.
Nice to know it's still very much EDF ( EDF! EDF!...)
Re: Paper Beast Is the New PSVR Game From the Creator of Another World
@nessisonett You found Another World calm?!
Re: Interview: Fiona Sperry on Dangerous Driving, Arcade Racers, and Evolving Burnout
@MaseSco I'm not actually sure I could cope!
I worked in local government that ran a 'flexi-time' scheme for a little while, that didn't go well!

Re: Poll: Are You a Big Borderlands Fan, and Are You Hyped for Borderlands 3?
Tried Borderlands 2 again - really not my thing. That said, it doesn't run at all well on the Vita - but nothing about the style or presentation grabbed me if I'm honest.
Re: Samurai Shodown Shows Off All 16 Playable Characters
It is looking really nice!
Still may get SSV Special yet.
Re: Naughty! RAGE 2 Cheat Code Unlocks Cockney Geezer Danny Dyer as a Gameplay Commentator
I had pretty much no interest in this game until now!
Re: Someone Made Super Mario Maker in LittleBigPlanet 3
Sweet Christmas!
I once managed to make a car in LB1... Just sayin' 😎

Re: Fans Are Freakin' Out As Ape Escape's Website Just Updated
@Octane Ha!
@NintendoFan4Lyf I had the first one, liked it - never bothered with any others.
Re: Cetrion Is a Brand New Character Joining the Roster in Mortal Kombat 11
Enchantress much?
Looks good.
Re: The Huge Spring Sale Begins Today on EU PlayStation Store
@tomassi grab it on disc second hand. Won't cost much.
Re: The Huge Spring Sale Begins Today on EU PlayStation Store
@gingerfrog true. They did the same with Warhawk I think.

Re: SEGA Releases New Team Sonic Racing Gameplay Trailer as it Gears Up for Launch on PS4
I really hope it's great. I'd like to get it as the series is a favourite, but I think it's already peaked. 🤔
Re: Guide: Best PS4 Sports Games
NHL 19 is easily better than a third of the games listed... 😳
Re: Iron Man VR Looks Sick, Is a Full Game with a Deep Sandbox and Story
Well colour me impressed (and also wrong)- the flying looks rather nice!
Re: Half of Video Game Software Bought in the UK Last Year was Digital
It'll be quite an interesting breakdown if the detail becomes available.

Re: Xenon Racer - Look Ma, No Handling
It looked promising, but it was never going to be worth the full asking price.
Shame it's actually a dud.
Everyone buy Grip instead!
Re: Sony's Digital Refund Policy Takes a Welcome Step Forward
@roe It could be a thing.
I rarely leave my PS4 in standby, but do still use the store in a browser at work or on my phone.
Re: Sony's Digital Refund Policy Takes a Welcome Step Forward
Sweet.
That is a good step forward.
@SirRealDeal sounds like the Google Play policy. It would be good if Sony did that too, but this will be a small steps thing. The level of shovelware on mobiles and potentially vomit inducing experiences with Oculus are more in need of that sort of policy though.
Re: DriveClub Servers to Be Shut Down in 2020, Game Gets Delisted This August
That's a shame. Haven't touched it in a while, but it's a fine game. I don't mind just having the single player stuff left.
May have to grab Bikes before it goes though.
