I platinumed Remake but stoppef around 75% on Rebirth. Would take 40+ hours to get the remaining 25% and as an adult with 2 jobs, I simply can't be bothered.
Yakuza uses a smaller but more dense world. If you just want to beat the stories, you can do so in less than a week but anyone who knows Yakuza, that is doing yourself a MASSIVE disservice.
Still not getting it but good for those that want to.
I platinumed it. Beat it twice. Loved it far more than Forbidden West. Don't have the time to re-platinum it again when there are other new games I could play.
50% of PS users are still on PS4 with no need to upgrade to a base PS5 as it is.
This number for PS5 Pro is beyond optimistic with inflation and little incentive to upgrade as the latest COD and Fifa and live service games all being available on PS4 as of this year
I already don't buy at full price except for extreme exceptions such as God Of War Ragnarok & likely GTA 6.
With PS Plus Premium, I have no need to buy games as I mainly play SP games, beat them and move on. I won't mind waiting for a sale or it goes on PS Plus
Gears Of War does this very well. Recently got into the franchise and I can still plays Gears of War 1-3 matches with a few real players and bots to fill out the map.

Queen's Blood anyone?
I found myself ignoring everything else to play

Re: UK Retailers Are All Discounting the PS5 Pro Already
£699 without a disc drive or stand. No wonder they are readily available

Agreed

Re: The Game Awards Confirms DLC, Remasters Can Win Game of the Year Days Prior to Nominations Reveal
FF7 Rebirth
Astro Bot

Giving a remaster over any of these is an insult

Hoping Resident Evil 4 Remake Gold Edition is £20 or less.

Finished MGS1 yesterday. Perfect timing
Re: GTA Trilogy Dev Implies Rockstar Made a 'D*ck Move' Removing Its Name from PS5, PS4 Remasters
Their name still appears at the end game credits.
Rockstar own the IP, they are free to do as they wish. Took them 3 years to finally get it to a decent state.

Re: Black Ops 6 Drives Monthly PS5 Sales Growth in the UK, 75% of Players Purchase on PlayStation
Playing BO6 on gamepass since I already have it. If I had to buy it, I'd likely get it on Playstation
Re: PS5 Slim Price Drop Confirmed, $380 Until 24th December
Smart business decision. Push people to digital and lock them in the PS Store and if they want a disc, they will make a tidy profit.
As a consumer, get physical. Better deals
Re: Australia's Planned Social Media Ban to Include PSN

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Offers $20 Premium 'Pay-to-Hear' Audio Tech
You laugh but watch millions purchase this.
Microtransactions are sadly here to stay
Re: Video: 2025 Is Shaping Up to Be PS5's Best Year Yet
GTA 6.
Buying it Day 1. Will take a long weekend off work for it. I reckon I'll clock 12+ hours a day in that long weekend.
Re: Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Dodges Monster Hunter Wilds with New PS5, PS4 Release Date
@JohntheRaptor 100% Something to be celebrated in this day and age of games launching broken being the norm
Day 1 buyers are generally beta testers these days
Re: Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii Dodges Monster Hunter Wilds with New PS5, PS4 Release Date
RGG Studios is one of the few studios I gladly buy Day 1.
Re: Beloved Co-Op Platformer It Takes Two Has Sold a Whopping 20 Million Copies
Congratulations to them!
May they continue to grow as a studio
Re: PS5 May Soon Be Unchallenged by Xbox in Some Regions
@IOI
Well said. Xbox leaving the console space is horrible news for us all.
PS Plus Premium/Extra happened as a direct result of Gamepass.
If Sony is left unchecked, you get the PS3 launch all over again. PS6 at $699 starting price etc
Re: Sony Product Manager Urges PS5 Fans to 'Settle Down' Over Ads
@Kanji-Tatsumi
Precisely.
This wasn't a mistake, it was a beta test to guage public reaction.
Re: Poll: Did You Pre-Order a PS5 Pro?
Not interested.
Got my PS5 for roughly £230 when you include the money I made from trading in my PS4.
More than enough
Re: Horizon Zero Dawn PS5 Wins Over PlayStation Fans

Re: PS5's Building Insurmountable Lead Over Rival, Outselling Xbox Almost 3:1
This is horrible news because if you recall, when Sony had no real competition, they became very arrogant and the PS3 launch happened.

Re: Sony Priming 'Even Less Exciting' PS5 Remaster for State of Play
This gen has been garbage in terms of actual new PS5 only games.
No wonder nearly half of PS users haven't upgraded to PS5
Re: Blizzard Reportedly Made $150 Million in Diablo 4 Microtransactions
@UltimateOtaku91
Sad but true.
As a company, If I see people are willing to pay for microtransactions which is essentially free money for us, I'd be mad not to consider it.
Gamers getting what gamers deserve
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 546
Cyberpunk 2077 Phantom Liberty edition.
Going in completely blind.
Re: PS5 Pro Probably Won't Run GTA 6 at 4K 60FPS, Tech Expert Claims
I care more about whether GTA 6 will be fun to play.
The reason people are still playing GTA Online after all these years is because its "fun" not because it has the best graphics.
Re: 13 More Games Join PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
@ShogunRok
Precisely my thoughts. Not going to bother with anything here.
Re: Despite Price Point, Analyst Firm Expects PS5 Pro to Sell Like PS4 Pro

Re: PS5 Pro Announced, Costs $700 and Out in November
£700 is nearly $1000 WITHOUT a disc drive or a stand.
Insanity.
I'll be shocked if this sells well.
Re: Metal Gear Solid Delta PS5 Won't Be 'a Hideo Kojima Game'
Whether the title card is there or not, the entire Metal Gear franchise would not exist without Hideo Kojima.
Re: Poll: Are You Sold on PS5 Pro?
£700 is nearly $1000.
Lmao.
No chance.
Re: Astro Bot PS5 Sales 'Aren't Huge' in UK, But There's Still Hope
I wonder what Sony will consider a "success" in terms of sales.
I'd imagine costs were lower than a God Of War so hopefully they are satisfied enough to continue making more games like it.
Re: PS5, PC Disaster Concord Is Now Officially Offline Indefinitely
Dying on the day Astro Bot comes out to rave reviews is sweet
Re: Astro Bot (PS5) - One of the Greatest PlayStation Platformers of All Time

Yep its a complete and utter disaster at Sony with its live service push
Re: Layoffs Hit Ballistic Moon Ahead of Until Dawn PS5's October Release
Morale must be low if this is needed BEFORE the remake gets released.
A sign of low faith in sales?
Working in the industry is a nightmare it seems.
Re: Harry Potter's New PS Plus Game Will Come with a Bonus for Hogwarts Legacy Owners on PS5, PS4
Enjoyed his storyline in the game. Will give this a go on launch day.
Plenty of room for growth with a potential sequel to Hogwarts Legacy.
Re: Concord PS5, PC Sales Estimates Are Somehow Even Worse Than We Thought
At 25K units, they could have made more money making this a tax write-off.
Re: Harry Potter: Quidditch Champions' Snitch Has Been Dramatically Nerfed on PS5, PS4

J.K. Rowling's books have had such an impact on peoples lives that your comment looks so bitter.
I loved Hogwarts Legacy and excited to play this one.

Re: The Witcher 4 Close to Full Production, Next Cyberpunk Progressing as Planned
If its out before 2030, I'll be shocked.
Re: Rumour: PS5 Pro Design Seemingly Leaked
Sony would be insane not to sell a disc version of it.
Surely there must be a disc attachment to it or I forsee most people not bothering to get it.
Re: Crash Bandicoot 5 Reportedly Cut in Favour of More Live Service Games

Exception does not disprove the rule.
For every helldivers, there are several cancelled Live service games and Concords
