@BossBE yuppp.

Also, everything that isn't food, water and oxygen is unnecessary really. Everything else is just niceties you can choose to engage in or not.

Personally, I'm happy with 60FPS, so getting 60 plus some extra goodies with this new console would be a plus for me.

Ah you cant slam up a picture of a PS2 Simpsons title, and then when I read the headline its just fluff, not the announcement of it being playable/remastered

@LifeGirl It must be an ego thing. Presumably, he relishes being the "face" of video games. And it works for the industry as a whole because he bends over backwards for corporate interests. He suddenly spoke out about all the industry losses today, weird to hear no comment from the face of games...but he had to so he could start promoting this. Box ticking exercise.

He's awful at it, absolutely no sauce. He should keep the event going and farm out presenting duties. But without a mass revolt from viewers, the industry is happy to keep him in place to do this.

hopefully theres a bloomberg or axios deep dive into what happened to the studio. super strange

Dragons dogma has under 60 frames per second but if they fix that, I buy!

Looks awful. Prove me wrong.

30fps+no coop+L+ratio

This fake news stuff has become such a cycle.

Clout chasers online mock up and "report" credible stuff based on predictions. Before the Switch 2 and PS5 Pro rumours were actually backed up, there were years of fake rumours about it.

It's the equivalent of putting $500 on Red at roulette and if it comes in red declaring yourself a soothsayer. You'll often find with these leakers, if you dig into their online presence, a list of failed "leaks" (read: guesses)

That sucks. I dont want to play another 100 hours of Valhalla re-skinned. I already did that. Didnt even play the DLC because I didnt want another 30 hours.

@Ravensbane the article tells your he's a rapper, has tracks featured on GTA V and it's the 10th anniversary of an album of his.

I think the article gives you plenty of context for who he is, people still feel it's interesting to tell people "never heard of him". I couldn't care less

@carlos82 I will always be baffled why people make these performative "WHO" comments over celebrities/musicians, like clockwork.

I honestly think the beta was really fun, they added some great extra characters too. I'm super curious what they've been working on for an entire year for the proper release.

@TwoDents it would have already been in development when they bought Bethesda I think, there's a PS5 build of Starfield that was worked on until they were told to stop after the acquisition.

@bpomber Agreed. They dont stamp this on Yakuza reviews, but I very much know I don't enjoy the beat em up gameplay

I bit today.

the FOMO was unbearable from the great clips online, plus the server side has been increased again so hopefully i'll get in

@Quintumply thats really decent!

Decent price I was expecting to pay more. Wonder what Hi-Fi will cost. £60 seems too high, £16 seems too low.

I appreciate you knocking the crap side missions.

They are abysmal in 7 and FF16 and it is definitely worth highlighting.

"We'll allow the Devs to announce these titles at their own time"

dumps all 4 dates in a soulless press release a week later

What did Phil mean by this

Well, by not making this official last week and bridging the rumours properly, we've got another classic unlisted youtube video announcement.

What are these companies paying PR firms for? Clown show

There must be some mad game preservation obsessed employee within Disney.

I would not have expected to see this level of dedication to keeping classics playable, especially at a mega corp like Disney but over and over again, they keep releasing classic titles on new consoles. Hell they're holding up the entire PS Plus Premium catalog

there is a near 0% chance this is good, based on all the delays

I actually think this game deserves a re-review.

I played it on launch and found it lacking. I'd love to know if its improved enough to warrant re-trying it.

Also, all the updates and DLC are free right?

Why not. I think they should do it.

I actually really enjoyed playing the first title (and a pretty easy plat also), which I didnt play back in the PS1 days.

Will probably give this a go!

Funny to think that Microsoft may well be pulling a blinder and filling in the PS Studios gaps here.

Could see titles like Starfield selling over 10 million copies if its really as sparse as it sounds.

@Triumph741 huh? The article is about the game at number 1 in the chart. So it is being bought.

Like I said, it's folks like us hating that are in the bubble. If we were to go with our gut feelings on the game and thoughts about it, it wouldn't break the top 10. But it has. So we were all wrong

So that is 3 titles. Hi-Fi Rush, Indiana Jones and Starfield

I wasnt gonna buy an Xbox. So Microsoft will make £0 from me currently.

However if true, I will buy all 3 games, and Microsoft will have £210 they would never have gotten without this change in strategy.

good for business surely.

completely baffling alongside the HZD remake. the stories in these games are not interesting enough to deem a repeat.

Unless they are now using this route as a Dev proving ground to see if they greenlight them a proper budget/acquisition by sony, I'm starting to find these choices more and more insane as more of them get announced.

Absolutely proof that the enthusiast bubble is blocking folks on here's judgement.

Outside of it, lots of people who dont read websites like this every day also game. And guess what? They like superhero stuff and they like shooters.

I'm curious: if these titles sell well on Playstation will Microsoft double down on the strategy or will it make them think "these games are important" and hold on to more of them.

I knew this would be the case. The game is "fine". Some may really like it. Others won't

Its a GAAS, which some people hate and has basically started this ongoing media pile-on. Its not a 1/10.

@Dom_31 I feel like with a lot of stuff similar to Kojimas style, in movies or other media forms, theres eventually a pay off.

Whereas with Kojima games, it eventually pays off and the reaction is like "oh, that is literally even dumber than I imagined it could be, and it looked pretty dumb in the first place".

I remember SteelRising before release, and then I think Lies of P just deleted it from my memory. Turns out its a different game. Will be checking that out.

SEGA SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP

@McBurn As a bloodborne fan...lol

@Loamy I have no idea why dragon dogmas fans are so defensive of the awful pawn system.

This game would be no fun if I could play with my friends instead of braindead useless ai companions!

No online coop and 30fps?!

@Nepp67 opposite here. Hated the brawler combat and have only got into the series due to the change.

Not looking good there, Outriders was unprofitable and what should have been a quick win, Bulletstorm VR, is turning into a PR disaster.

Sucks, they're a decent dev. They seem to have 5 projects in development. They're gonna need a hit there otherwise I think its over for them

@Brasilkilla I'm with ya, although it has to be a well made, play tested hard mode.

Nothing worse than slamming your head up against a game where the dev has just quadrupled the damage and halved your health bar

@Brasilkilla I would rather an easy list then an absolute grind fest. MK1 has a weird set. All very achievable, and then the level up 5 kameos to 15 trophy that would literally take hundreds of hours

I played DD for maybe an hour. Made my character, did some exploring, walked for maybe 20 minutes, got killed by something and it inexplicably spawned me at the start of the level so I had to do the 20 minute walk again.

I didnt, I uninstalled it and moved on.

>No team battle

Thank you for highlighting this in your review.

WHY DOES HARADA HATE ME SO MUCH.

@Bentleyma
I think I'm gonna go Tekken, then play this between sessions, before moving onto Infinite Wealth, then P3:R. It's a wild time of year.

@Deadlyblack same here, I can't wait

LETSGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

@Porco 10 is fine, but you know whats better? 11

maybe this will mean all those fan surveys to Capcom where I've written "MAKE MORE PHOENIX WRIGHT GAMES" over and over again will finally come to fruition
