@Ravix Nioh in three words: "yet another soulsborne"

Bloodborne would actually translate to mobile pretty well. Better than many of Sony's other IP's.

Boo! More games that are already on PS+.

I thought it was to show off the amazing graphical fidelity of those walls. Surely the unreal tech demo didn't lie about that?

@Mauzuri studies have shown that people enjoy stories more when they've been spoiled.

I didn't even need to play a game, they just gave me the cinnasnail. I wonder if it's because I sent a complaint in the app about no notice for the banana campaign.

@commentlife I think they got a lot of backlash last time. There's a new 24 hour campaign today, but it was auto started and I got a notification from the app.

Edit: also I didn't even need to play a game, it just gave me the reward for nothing.

@Neverwild it was established in the finale of part one that the fireflies are actually baddies.

The Last of Us: Part II: Part II, eh? Yeah I'd play it, though to be honest the only characters from Abby's story I liked were Lev and his sister. It was a strange choice to devote so much of the game to playing as the bad guys.

I prefer 60fps, but I'm not going to skip a good game just because it doesn't have an arbitrary frame rate. That's just nonsense.

quick-time events ... even allow you to hit the wrong button and then just try again until you get it right.

To be fair, this is how QTE works in every game when you fail. You just try again. They're not exactly high stakes, they don't erase your save and mail your mother a letter about what a disappointment you are for missing a button press.

Other games: "I would never play anything under 60fps, that's literally the bare minimum these lazy devs need to do!!"

God of War: "omfg 40fps! Did you guys even know numbers go that high? This is beyond amazing!"

Of course two different games can both come out in the same year. Everyone claiming Spider-Man 2 coming out in 2023 as proof that Wolverine can't come out in 2023 are being ridiculous.

Yeah, Sony's so dumb! They should never ever advertise any game that's already come out. What a bunch of dumb dummies!

@belmont it doesn't need to take up space for everyone though. Not sure if EU games do this, but some NA games will have separate downloads for different languages. Witcher 3 for example comes with English and you can download French or Polish separately.

So you just need to include the region's base language(s) and let people download any others they want separately.

@Sergo I have 29 games installed on my PS5 with 135GB left in the stock SSD. No external.

@Sil_Am kinda like the separate disc drive that PS5 is getting soon?

Sony's already shown that they'll remove PS3 games just so they can add them back to much praise. So I wouldn't count Red Dead Redemption as out forever.

It's a performance mode though. So it's not even going to be 4K at 60FPS. Pass!

@Bizzy I think Assassin's Creed 1 is the only one missing. I think it used to be on PS Now, so they could re-add it and everyone would act like it's some big deal for some reason, but I don't think they will since they can't add PS3 games to Ubisoft+ Classics (because it's part of Extra, not Premium).

I may've been willing to pay like $20-$30 for a new controller. No chance I'd pay 10x that.

@naruball that would be better than this 30 fps bs.

Game is literally unplayable. Hopefully they just cancel the game instead of releasing this dumpster fire.

Games are announced early, everyone complains they have to wait. Games are announced closer to release, everyone complains there's no announcements in-between. Man, you guys will never be happy.

@commentlife wtf there is an expired campaign. How was anyone supposed to know about it? The app didn't even give a notification for it.

Overdue? I mean, apart from the collectibles, isn't the rewards part just a less rewarding version of Sony Rewards? For subscribing to both PS+ and Now, you'd get 3x points I think from Sony Rewards, but now you just get 1x points from PS Stars as long as you've got PS+, regardless of the tier.

All you hypocrites complaining about this are just gonna buy the game day one anyway.

@Boucho11 Assassin's Creed China you can't even download. Syndicate you can download, but there'll be issues. I don't own the others to check if you can download them.

@BearsEatBeets it's because PS only releases remakes. The Last of Us Part 1? Already played it as The Last of Us Remastered. God of War Ragnarok? Already played it with a different plot as God of War. It's not like GamePass which actually has new games.

@uptownsoul a scheme is a large scale plan to attain something or put something into effect. @Orcish is 100% correct that this rewards program is a marketing scheme to get people to engage more with PlayStation by buying games from the store and playing specifically curated games. If you play more you're ultimately more likely to spend more. Sony has said before that they want to boost player engagement back to peak covid levels.

Uh oh, get ready for the people claiming Ragnarok doesn't actually sell well, the only reason it seems to is because it's part of a console bundle.

It makes perfect sense actually. Premium includes game streaming as well as games not on Extra. What are those games? Whatever they announce is on Premium. Kinda like how what's on Extra is whatever they announce for Extra.

I think I'm in the minority, Death Stranding was just ok. It was neat at first to build out the network and figure out the best ways to get from point A to point B, but then it was boring to travel along those paths dozens of times to grind likes and S rank premium deliveries. Add to that how all my paths broke due to different bridge connections which transferring to the PS5 version, I actually feel the director's cut was the worse version for ruining all the work I put into the original.

So I don't think I'll go out of my way for Death Stranding 2. Probably just play it if it lands on PS+.

@EpicMouse Sony's not pulling the rug out from under Ubisoft to try to force them to do anything. Ubisoft themselves have decided to add these games, because they're adding them to Ubisoft+ Classics which is part of PS+ Extra.

@Kang81 yeah they deleted the original tweet. I'm sure it was just some clueless support person trying to tell the customer what they wanted to hear.

@PoeticJustice @Korgon there's no PS5 patch coming for AC Syndicate. If you check the PSN Blog post, about half the AC games indicate you can only play them on PS4, not PS5.

PS+ Extra killing it again.
Still don't get why they removed PS3 games from Now just so they could act like it's a big thing to add them back to Premium months later.

@Truegamer79 will phone stores do? I've seen them sitting on shelves at Verizon.

FF7 is so popular, it definitely would still be running if they released on console. Hell, FF15's multiplayer is still running even (although that's probably P2P).

It waa limited time event after all. If you didn't play during those 30 minutes you've only yourself to blame.

@thefourfoldroot1 a larger pillow size for dualsense exists (in US at least). Not sure where it's from since I got mine as a gift.

@stvevan reveal should be tomorrow. Extra/Premium updates on the third Tuesday of the month, so the reveal is at latest the Wednesday before the third Tuesday of the month.

I went by a Verizon store recently and they had some PS5's just sitting there waiting for someone to walk in and buy them. Stock seems to be getting better if you can walk in to stores and buy it now.

So now they're "Studio Name", the most generic placeholder sounding name they could've picked.

I get that they don't want her to just ape Ellie from the game, but I feel like understanding the source material might make it easier to do it justice.

@koffing in 20 years there'll probably be a good enough PS4 emulator that can load up your save. Like how some 20+ year old PC games don't work properly on modern operating systems and you need emulators or VM's. PS5 at least right now, is still a potential worry because you can't copy the saves onto USB.

@OMGitsLiamT except that it does. Look back to the comment you originally replied to. That person pre-ordered because the trophy list revealed content they like, i.e. lots of collectibles.

@OMGitsLiamT trophy lists give you an indication of what kinds of things and how many things to do in the game. You can usually tell from a trophy list whether a game has a good amount of content.

@QualityGeezer don't worry, I'm sure they did learn their lesson that they can release a buggy mess and it'll still sell millions of copies, raking in boatloads of cash.

@Mad001 most people aren't going to get a new phone number after being banned for cheating in a game. A new email though? That's easy.
