@Platinum-Bucket Yeah 309GB and always online. The constant texture streaming could also reduce the life of the your SSD.

@ArcadeHeroes Metal Gear was at Sony's show last year. They were the first to reveal it.

@Sanquine Well that's obviously because Sony's show was just a State of play so it isn't really a fair comparison anyway.

@get2sammyb Sure they should put on a showcase in September but there definitely isn't a shortage of games like some people try to lead people to believe.

I suppose the sooner the better for people who need content for their articles though.

Why would we even need one when 12 of the games shown at the Xbox showcase have been confirmed for playstation anyway and there's a couple more awaiting confirmation.

Not to mention the Xbox 1st party games that'll probably get ported at some point and the expansions/dlc's for games that were already on playstation.

Of course there's people talking nonsense about the combat just like with Stellar Blade but this definitely looks promising and the combat definitely looks good.

Series X and S owners are starting to turn on each other over on X and Reddit over this lmao.

After BG3, one of the biggest games this year also getting delayed is pretty funny ngl.

Well what can I say? How about shut up and take my money lol because I'm definitely hyped for this.

@Tecinthebrain Didn't Nintendo give Sony the rights to make the Zelda movie? They'll make bank off that if the movie turns out to be good.

Well I didn't think much of the show but I'll definitely be buying Phantom Blade Zero and Black Myth Wukong.

Wipeout 64 was actually the first Sony game on Nintendo consoles so this has happened before but this time it probably has something to do with the Lego licence and the game being co-developed, anyway it actually looked good I'll probably buy it and play it with my nephew when he comes over.

Well the hate train obviously wants it to fail but the gameplay definitely looked solid so I'm going to give the beta a shot.

Well then I'll definitely jump back in later as well.

@StylesT Everyone seems to have 1 or 2 they would buy if they came over but the problem is they aren't worth buying an Xbox for.

TT games owns the rights to all the Lego games and they are owned by Warner Media so is this game even being published by playstation? I may be wrong but this is probably just a Lego game that's using the Horizon IP but it isn't actually being published by Playstation.

So if its the same as Helldivers 2 pricing it should be £30 at Argos for a preorder copy.

Well I'm glad they are tapping into China because I find Chinese mythology and folklore interesting.

I'm definitely interested in Daba - Land of the water scar, Phantom blade zero, Lost soul aside and of course Black myth wukong.

Good game I played it on PS2 as a kid, I would say it is a bit of a cult classic like the movie.

@Grumblevolcano According to Druckmann TLOU 3 is not their next game.

Most likely waiting to launch it alongside S2 of the show.

@Mikey856 Well you say that but they just hit 315k concurrent on steam which is just shy of their peak all time concurrent and when you factor in console players then this expansion has obviously been successful.

@Nem Nope, she was the writer for Battlefield Hardline which is considered the worst Battlefield and it was one of the worst selling so it was considered a bit of a flop at the time, especially by EA and she also came up with the story concept for Forspoken.

@Americansamurai1 Apparently the unofficial Bizlink adapter for PSVR2 was $150 so that's not that bad in comparison.

@Nem Then it's strange that her next 2 games after leaving were flops.

Yeah because it is going to be at Sony's September showcase.

The Series Potato Strikes Again.

I didn't care for the story or characters but the gameplay actually looked good.

Okay that's cool and I wonder which lucky employee at Sony gets to keep it when the marketing is all wrapped up.

Maybe they should make some normal sized ones and sell them on playstation direct because I'd probably buy one.

@glennthefrog There's also more expensive deluxe editions and collectors editions with the venom statue.

@Savage_Joe I was talking about hardware prices.

That's right Sony give them a Bloodborne remaster and tell them if they want Bloodborne 2 they need to buy the PS6.

Seriously though people say but console prices are going up but they ignore the fact PC prices are going up as well when people have even less disposable income. It's definitely worth a try to entice some players into their ecosystem, the latest findings from ESA said that Gen Z are likely to choose console over PC anyway.

@koffing Did they say PC after a year in this meeting? I didn't watch it but all their other singleplayer games have been about 2 years or more.

@__jamiie There's no need to cry, it's not that deep and maybe don't comment if you don't like getting replies.

@__jamiie Yep crazy. Looking ahead and theorising 10 to 15 years from now just to ignore the fact the Xbox console is already cooked in the here and now. 🤣 Good one though. 👍

And FYI Xbox is essentially already an app on PC and nobody wants it lol.

@MFTWrecks I would argue a good story can enhance any game but it just seems really hard to do in racing games for some reason and pacing is really important if you're even going to try in a racing game.

@PuppetMaster Probably just marketing speak from Sony because Returnal is more like a really high quality AA game. It obviously had a small budget and definitely had a small Dev team at the time.

Well Sony obviously thought it was successful enough to buy them and increase their Dev team and budget for their next game.

@__jamiie - "I really don't understand how any PlayStation fans consider selling more hardware a success in this day and age."

Probably because it prevents the death of the console. Xbox is all the proof you need of that.

Let's say they licence the Xbox name to PC manufacturers like you're suggesting but they'll obviously still just be PC's with an Xbox name slapped on. No more subsidising and Steam will just be the de facto storefront like on PC and Publishers will no longer need to make an Xbox version of their games, I mean why would they when they'll just be PC's.

I mean how crazy do you have to be to not realise Xbox consoles are actually just completely dead at that point lmao.

@PuppetMaster I'm not sure about any of the other games but from the insomniac hack Returnal has sold over a million copies.

@HonestHick True and let's hope there's not another 5 day early access scam this time yeah. 👍

Cod is such a snoozefest these days so this trailer did absolutely nothing for me.

I look forward to the inevitable price increase though because that should go down well also when this fails to move the needle that'll probably be entertaining at least.

We definitely need to see some actual gameplay for this.

@jolteon23 That $50 million estimate is just a guess from someone on Reddit but they actually have no clue how much it cost. $50 million seems really low and Dragons Dogma apparently took 5 years to develop while FF7 Rebirth only took 3 years.

Well they've got no choice because Xbox is a dead platform.

@TrickyDicky99 Cheer up son, it might never happen.

@Cry_Zero It was added in the update but you need to visit Roxanne. It is basically the original bunny outfit but red and without the piece of cloth that everyone made a big fuss about. There's another outfit as well.

@Balosi The game is good but it was never great.

I've been a gamer long enough to see this happen for quite a few games. They come out get a lukewarm reception and the majority of people who play the game think it was just okay/good then fast forward a few years and people start claiming the game is great.

It seems the underrated mad max game is now overrated.

@CutchuSlow Yeah there's anime on Amazon prime and Netflix as well.

@Sifi Gamepass doesn't change the fact it flopped worse than Redfall on Steam.

Hilarious that people are even comparing this game to the The Order because at least that game had some decent gameplay.

Hellblade 2 is just some pretentious tripe that seems to have flopped badly on PC as well with even less of a peak concurrent than Hi-fi and even Redfall lol.
