Wouldn't surprise me if there was a Patreon donation link somewhere in that blog post

You'll always get the odd group like those on open community platforms. Must be a slow news day to make news

@hYdeks Its all I see every month. Personally I've still got a huge PS+ backlog to get through anyway from being a day one subscriber so I'm never too fussed. £40 for 72 games each year, a good percentage being ones I wouldn't have bought and tried otherwise, is good value to me.

I'll be sticking to Tony Hawks 2 on the Dreamcast for now. Lord knows what happened to the series after THUG. I was actually looking forward to this till I seen all these ropey vids, Activision cheaped out majorly on TH5.

Any list that has Ocarina of Time above Majora's Mask is instantly voided in my view

Probably my favourite platforming franchise out there. It's a shame the HD collection on Ps3 is so scarce otherwise I'd be getting ready playing through that, but the Ps2 versions are still playable as it is.

@JesWood13 try Kissanime.com every episode dubbed or subbed. HTML5 playback means it works on Ps4 too

Careful now @get2sammyb. Not entirely blaming Sony for the demise of the Vita ain't gonna leave you in good standing with the fine folk of the interwebs. Good point on the Freedom Wars too. The monumental whining for physical to the point you'd expect hefty sales, yet it ended up a little lacklustre, makes it one of the lowest points of the Vita's lifespan. Shame as its one of the Vita's better titles too. It's kinda like the WiiU in a way. Plummeting 3rd party support & great 1st party stuff yet sales slowed too much due to the manufacturer focusing elsewhere (WiiU has picked up a little at least). Now it has neither except in Japan.

There's still a market for the handheld to those that love the Japanese market though. So much announced for Vita at TGS

I always thought of Hardware as a poor man's Twisted Metal, especially with also having Twisted Metal Black: Online to play as well at the time. Still, it was a freebie in Europe when you sent off for a network access disk. Considering vehicle combat seems to be dead these days, I'm sorta looking forward to this

Announcing a season pass before any DLC has been detailed. They just know suckers will lap it up anyway

@Mega-Gazz how would you have a hard time arguing that If those 50 candidates were the most qualified for the job that needing doing? That's how a meritocracy works. Overlooking a persons ability to fill a quota based on race & gender is racist & sexist. That's discrimination.

It would be the same if all 50 most qualified candidates were black females. You would still hire them all, instead of overlooking a few to add some whites to the mix for dat diversity, simply because they are the most suitably skilled for the job you need completing.

Positive Discrimination is still discrimination no matter how you word it, the clue is the term. These people are so warped. Whatever happened to the right person for the right job...

This will probably be as hilariously bad as Channel 4's UKIP hit piece a few months ago

@slampog Yeah Intercept is included in the season pass. That's how I got it

Shadowfall still has the most underappreciated multiplayer on Ps4...

Sony always innovate in some way each generation, but it tends to be under appreciated compared to what others do - especially within the gaming press. Share Play being one this generation

@get2sammyb self employed so I pick & choose my bank holidays

What a way to start the working week than with the news of a Project Diva for Ps4

The last Videogame movie I watched was Need for Speed. It wasn't too bad (good 3D probably made it more entertaining) considering its a franchise one wouldn't expect a movie of. Have a little faith...

@SoulsBourne128 The 'Enhanced Edition' in the games title kinda gives it away. It's not even a remaster. Just an enhanced port.

Does this release feature any enhancements over the PC release? I was playing that not too long ago & it looked bobbins maxed. It's a shame the combat isn't too good as some other aspects of the game aren't too bad. An enhanced port should've been an opportunity to build on the original release. Missed opportunity.

@Wesker because its pure & simple fun? Just as a game should be. Also helps that there's more to it than just shooting ants

It's about time other Japanese developers have started to focus on Ps4 after the likes of Nippon Ichi, Compile Heart etc have already released exclusive titles for current gen

Glorious Twisted Metal. The £11.99 I paid for a 3 month top up a few weeks ago has been recouped already.

How Atlus managed to shota Miku and make her look like a boy I'll never know

After reading Digital Foundrys piece after E3 when testing the Xbox One backwards compatibility, the abysmal performance of some titles leaves me thinking it'll be as hit & miss as on X360 - so not really worth the time. I'm glad Sony has gone another route as trying to software simulate the CELL would be ridiculously difficult and a waste of resources

Doesn't surprise me. X86 may be a known quantity, but most developers still don't seem to have a grasp of parallelism across more than a few CPU cores fully yet, then there's hUMA & GPGPU to consider on Ps4 too. There's still more to consider as well, so not quite a cakewalk as some devs think.

@SeahorseLegs The likes of Compile Heart, Idea Factory, Nippon Ichi etc rarely have a patch for their games - let alone a day one patch. They tend to finish their games before releasing

It's amazing that people want Sony to keep pumping millions into developing AAA games that won't sell on a system that doesn't sell. Even during the Vita's first year when it was buried under first party exclusiveS it didn't sell, it's about time folk just moved on. For the past year the Vita has only been good for Niche third party localisations & indie releases, and that's all it'll ever have going forward.

Doom pummeled every other game at the show. I don't tend to get hyped anymore for games, but I can't contain the feels for Doom - it was everything I was hoping for.

@Pipr Fallout 3 is still decent, although combat is a bit clunky when not using Vats. You may be able to pick up the GOTY edition relatively cheap On Ps3 these days to give you all the DLC

Bethesda RPG's have always been a little clunky gameplay-wise tho....

I'm surprised people think it's so easy for the Ps4 to emulate the Ps3. Let's not forget how long it took for Sony to create a Ps2 emulator in software to run those PSN Ps2 releases. The Xbox One BC is apparently only launching with support for about 20 games, which sounds like it's gonna be similar to Xbox 360's lacklustre effort. The amount of buggy titles due to the emulation & Microsoft pulling support for it after a couple of years means it hasn't wooed me like with others.

Playstation Now could be a much better option once pricing is sorted & Ps1/Ps2 titles are eventually added to the service. There's always the option of using the service on other devices too...

The only other conference to come close to Sony was Bethesda, and that's only because the gameplay footage of Doom almost made me weep

Wait. What. Square are still going ahead with the lacklustre port after announcing a remake. Dat gravy train...

I was thinking @get2sammyb & Co had forgotten about this. Looks most intriguing. I have no doubt either that the graphical quality shown was legit, Shadowfall was also announced with gameplay footage & looked superb upon release

Like the article says, this could be GG breakthrough game. They've been given the freedom to do their own thing so let's hope it works out well for them.

Started a third playthrough of Beyond the other day. Must be fate. Day one for me

@LordBagardo that Twisted Metal announcement was the best E3 moment so far for me. It was probably me that was heard shouting that all the way from the UK

Some comments here sound as tho its wrong of others to be excited for games. I leave this gif here for you

@BLPs did Yoshida run over the family dog? We all know you love the WiiU n all, but folk other than Nintendo can make good games too.

And your last point garnered a chuckle considering almost every Nintendo exclusive for at least the past year has been hyped by mainstream outlets. Hell, even the Pokemon remasters for 3DS got hyped even though remasters are supposed to be an evil of unspeakable evil...

I'm surprised noone has mentioned the quirky looking Final Fantasy game announced for Ps4 & PSVita. Or even the MM looking oddball in Dreams. It's a shame Horizon is being overshadowed so much too as it genuinely looked interesting & fantastic, better than I was expecting GG latest to be. Uncharted 4 finally looked worthwhile too. The trailer shown during the Project Morpheus mini segment also had a few games that looked interesting.

As for the 3 main bombs - Not interested in FFVII to be honest as everyone knows FFIX is more deserving of a remake, and it was only a CG trailer afterall. The Last Guardian looked fantastic and the 2016 date was surprising. Shemnue 3 was only a Kickstarter launch afterall too, which will no doubt be funded, but it would've been a genuine bomb by Sony if it was exclusive.

It's been a pretty good E3 so far, now I just need localisation announcements for Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory II & Senran Kagura Estival Versus to make it great.

Looking forward to seeing more of Deus Ex. Aside from that on the shortlist.......................

Looks like a cross between Kessen & Total War. I haven't played a Kessen for years so I'm definitely interested.

Uncharted 3 was stunning in 3D. So let's yank it. Uncharted 2/3 had interesting multiplayer modes. So let's yank it. Honestly this collection gets even less appealing with each passing announcement. Let's hope it's not full price.

Sounds good. I started the demo (bought Type-0 preowned, code hadn't been used. Lucky me) but then when i heard of a patch coming I stopped playing. I'd prefer to see how things are post-patch as what I'd viewed previously seemed a little underhwelming.

Bruh...where's the Beyond Two Souls remaster for Ps4 that's been rumoured for months? Uncharted collection is weak Sony.

Its not too bad, at its best it can be as chaotic as MAG - but the player count on the Beta isn't too high these days so I'll probably jump back on when the game releases fully.

I'm actually looking forward to playing Futuridiam on Ps4 the most. Looks interesting.

They may have ditched the previous gen for Fallout 4, but that engine hasn't changed much. The sooner developers stop sprucing up creaking Dx9 based engines, the better.

Considering they've been relatively quiet since Skyrim, and don't look to have built a new engine either, it means they must've had plenty of time to work on the games mechanics. Should be interesting in that regard.

@ShogunRok At least with there being no cross-gen release, your hype wont be killed off. BUT. It looks like their last gen engine spruced up from the numerous screengrabs doing the rounds, So I guess your off into orbit soon?

People can keep suggesting things - micro SD slot etc, but nothing will save the Vita from the Grim Reaper. Nothing. Its been dead in the west now for nearly 2 years. Why should Sony do anything now when noone has give a damn about the Vita in the west for so long? The only reason its stuck around for as long as it has is due to decent indie support in the west & good performance in Japan with support from Japanese developers.

I feel like the only person in the world that knows of personal responsibility.

But I thought there was gonna be no first-party titles this year now with Uncharted being delayed....

Wow. People talking about PC's like everyone has the same PC that they do. I needed that laugh.

As for this remaster, l'd probably give it a try at a decent price. Never got around to finishing Arkham City on Ps3. Hopefully they'd keep & boost the games 3D mode a little too
