That's a good point, I'd genuinely forgotten about it now coming under Microsoft umbrella

Another great game franchise that they own and will likely do absolutely nothing with it

Hoping to see Tony Hawkes Pro Skater 3 & 4 remastered

@Somapix

Are you being serious? Of course they are

I mean it is getting better (as it should be considering the PS5 is almost 4 years old) but there are still loads of games that get released as Cross Gen

There was even an article on this very website this morning listing them all

https://www.pushsquare.com/guides/new-ps4-games-release-dates-in-2024

I absolutely love my PS5 but I'll certainly be in no rush to upgrade to a PS6.

Wouldn't surprise me if (when the time comes) they're still releasing games for all 3 consoles, 4, 5 & 6

I'm sorry but I'm with Nintendo on this one.

It basically just a Pokémon rip off.

My only real suprise is that it's taken Nintendo this long to take action

Smyth's is where I tend to buy any physical games from but I am slowly transitioning to digital purchases

As long as it's not a THPS 5 remaster consider me interested

I've been considering getting a 2nd PS5 so I can have one upstairs on my monitor and one downstairs on the TV.

I was holding out to find out more info on the Pro but the price has completely turned me off it.

I think I'll just pick up the slim digital model for £389

@Cypher_Unknown

Yeah it's more the future that I'm concerned about than the here and now if this is the way prices are heading.

I'm more than happy with my standard PS5 and will continue to enjoy it without any FOMO on the Pro.

I'm hoping I can still rely on Nintendo to pump out reasonably priced products... I'm really looking forward to finding out more about the Switches successor

@Cypher_Unknown

I think you're missing my point.

The Pro itself doesn't price me out as I've already got a standard PS5 and I don't particularly need a Pro.

It's looking to the future that scares me.

The PS6 will obviously be even more beefed up and powerful and this is where i'll probably be priced out.

There's no way the PS6 will sell for any less than this.... if anything it's likely to be more ...... much more...... and that scares the Hell out of me

I've owned every Playstation so far, but if this is a sign of what's to come that I feel the PS6 will be beyond what I'm prepared to pay

Are they selling any refurbished PS5 Pros by any chance

@GrimWillows

I think it's a fair comparison.

Let's go back to the PS4, the base model I believe started off at £350. A few years later the PS4 Pro came along at £399.

Then a few more years after that the PS5 released at £450 (Now bizzarly selling for £479).

You can see the pattern developing though can't you??

@PsBoxSwitchOwner

I'd love to be proven wrong and only time will tell but I'd be amazed if the PS6 starts at any less than this.

The only way it's cheaper is if this Pro absolutely bombs and they realise most people (not everyone obviously but most) just aren't prepared to pay that much for a Games console

@PsBoxSwitchOwner

that may well be true but it still strikes the fear of god into me worrying what they will try to get away with charging for the PS6 when that inevitably releases.

The PS6 will have even better specs so they will presumably charge even more... not less

Absolutely not, you'd think they'd learn from pricing the VR2 at such a high price point

What I'm more worried about is where this leads too in the future ..... how much are they going to want for the PS6???

I think I've just been officially priced out of my favourite hobby

I'm sorry but £699 is absolutely insane

Price creases aren't great at any time but I already own 2 Duel sense controllers and unless one of them breaks I'm very unlikely to ever need to purchase another one.

Long story short I won't be losing any sleep over it as it will (hopefully) have Zero impact on me personally

Shame.

This game has been on my radar for quite some time but I think I'll probably have to leave it a while longer till it hopefully receives a patch

I picked the mostly happy option.

Whilst I probably wouldn't have gone out and bought any of the 3 games, it's quite rare to get a month when we get 3 games that I genuinely would like to try.

@WhiteRabbit

Sounds about right haha

@Rog-X

How exactly would you be restricting yourself to 1 x AAA title??

I'm really sorry but you've completely lost me lol

I don't understand how having a PS5 in addition to your PC would restrict you.... surely having both would give you more options.... not less

Not bad, not bad at all.

It's rare that we get 3 games at once I'd actually like to try

Absolutely not!!!! if those PC scruffs wanna play it tell them to buy a PS5 like the rest of us

edit: I feel I should add a small disclaimer to clarify that I am just joking before someone gets offended and my comment gets deleted

I'm quite content to just wait in fairness.

It'd be nice to have the info but If I was really that bothered about playing these games I'd just buy myself an Xbox

Looks pretty cool to be fair.

Will definitely give it a try

@LikelySatan

It's an absolute masterpiece, I recently started to play through it again from scratch and I'd forgotten just how good it is.

If this new Astro Bot game is even half as good we're in for a treat

Is it wrong that there's not one single thing on that list that I can honestly say I'm looking forward too

@Netret0120

Again I've no arguments / issues with what you're saying.....

I just can't get my head around why it would make someone flat out refuse to play a game just because it doesn't have trophies.

If it has them, great!!!! Crack on

If it doesn't, just play the game anyway and enjoy yourself, life's too short to get upset over something so simple. (I'm not specifically accusing you of being upset, it's just a figure of speech)

Some of my favourite games of this generation have actually been on the Nintendo Switch, Super Mario Odyssey as a prime example.

On that game there's not a trophy in sight but it hasn't impacted my enjoyment of the game in any way shape or form.

Could it be argued that having trophies to collect might make it better? Quite possibly. But why anyone would refuse to play it (or any other game) because it doesn't have a trophy collection it completely beyond me

@Flaming_Kaiser

I agree that they should be in all games in this day and age, and as I said in my first post they're a cool little addition, but would it stop me playing a game because it doesn't have them???? Absolutely not.

I just don't understand why someone would prioritise a meaningless trophy count over their actual enjoyment of a game

@thefourfoldroot1

Yeah I get that, but is it really a reason to refuse to play a game?... refusing to play a game that you like would be the weird thing.

Trophies are a cool addition to any game but anyone who refuses to play a game simply because it doesn't have trophies to collect, need to have a serious word with themselves

@Artois2 @vyseofhr

I agree with you both that FH4 is better than 5, but I think it's highly unlikely we'll see that on PS as Microsoft are delisting the game from sale altogether in December 2024 due to licensing issues.

If we do get a Forza horizon game it will almost certainly be number 5

@Almost_Ghostly

Thank you for reminding me I still need to claim the free games 🤣

Obviously I'm still unsure if I'll get bombarded with emails just yet but I'll find out later

@OldGamer999

Why buy a PS5 when still in 2024 I can play the soon to be released COD and FIFA on a PS4.

Unfortunately you've hit the nail right on the head. As a day one PS5 adopter it makes my blood boil that we are still seeing Cross gen releases.

I could just about accept it in the first 6 month launch period but we're now 4 years down the line and it should not be happening anymore.

Make all new games Current Gen exclusive and give people a reason to upgrade their consoles.

I've grown up owning every Sony and Nintendo console and this Cross Gen nonsense was never a thing until recently.

You buy the latest console to give you the privilege of playing the latest games.

As much as I love my PS5 I just feel completely cheated this generation

@Frmknst

What a strange comment.

Are you seriously telling me that you've never, booked a holiday, ate at a restaurant or bought an expensive item (just a few examples) without first reading a couple of reviews to get other opinions on whether it's worth your hard earned cash??

If you haven't then fair play to you for living life on the edge lol

But reviews done properly and not by trolls can be extremely helpful to many people, certainly doesn't mean there something wrong with them for wanting another persons opinion before committing themselves and potentially wasting their money

I'm fine with it as long as it somehow only allows people to leave a review if they can prove that they've actually purchased and played the game.

There are far too many fake reviews out there as it is from trolls.

As long as the reviews are from people who have genuinely played the game then I honestly don't mind and will value their opinion (good or bad)

@Almost_Ghostly

I guess I was one of the lucky ones 🤪

Personally I think the price is fine as it is.

Perhaps stop releasing games as cross gen and make them PS5 exclusive, which in turn will then give people an actual reason to upgrade their consoles.

It's getting better but I honestly can't believe cross gen games are still a thing almost 4 years into the lifecycle of the PS5

@Retron

That's a lot of people who want to play FIFA and COD in HD.

I'm sorry but that's not true at all!!!!!

Actually We like to call it EA Sports FC 24 nowadays

@Almost_Ghostly

They have definitely stopped for me (or at least they had, I haven't added this month's free games to my library yet so not in a position to confirm if they've started again)

In the last year or so the only time I've had a "thank you for your purchase email" was when I've actually bought something.... ie money changing hands......

Haven't had an email for claiming a free PS plus game in a long long time so definitely not fake news

Still more than I'd personally want to pay for one but I believe this is the price it should have originally launched at to give it a fighting chance of survival

Looks amazing but unfortunately I already have 2 Controllers and have no need for a 3rd one.

It's still £150 more than I'd be willing to pay for it

@ORO_ERICIUS

I could well be getting confused with Forza horizon on the Xbox

Bit of a boring answer to be honest but....... not alot changes.

If anything I probably get more opportunities to game because my wife and daughter both watch Love Island every night so I'm left to my own devices for a good hour before bedtime

@Kidfunkadelic83 @willzomg

Try this, I found it on another website, I did it a while ago and it did work

*How to delete game files on a PS5
When you delete a PS5 game, the data associated with it is saved in case you want to reinstall the game in future. But, if you definitely don’t want to play the game again, you can delete the game file, and free up some extra space, as follows:

Go to the home screen.
Select ‘Settings’.
Select ‘Saved Data and Game/App Settings’.
Choose ‘Saved Data (PS5)’
Select ‘Console Storage’.
Click on ‘Delete’.
Choose the files you want to delete.
Hit ‘Delete’.
Press ‘OK’ to confirm.*

I was expecting a 2024 release but I think if we still haven't heard anything official by the end of September then I don't think it will happen (this year)
