Black Myth Wukong breaks records and sells millions of copies. Single Player.

Concord breaks records for all the wrong reasons and is dead on arrival. Live service.

Take the hint Sony.

My expectations for the game were low but geez this is an abject failure of catastrophic proportions.

If I worked at the studio, I'd be brushing up my CV right about now.

@get2sammyb

For £40, its asking a lot to compete with better live service games which are free.

Is it worth £40 in your opinion?

They are basically 3rd party developers at this point.

The real truth is the game costs a fortune and they want to get as much money as possible since the PS5 has more players.

The PR answer is just window dressing

@Member_the_game

Fair play. You do make valid points. Hope whenever trophy support is added, it pops trophies according to the saved data.

Haven't owned a Nintendo console since the SNES (I'm old lol) but I always hear good things about their exclusives.

Hope its more similar to Borderlands 2 than 3

Not playing until trophy support is there then.

@Mikey856

Majority of gamers do not come to websites like this.

Its FIFA / Call Of Duty / Fortnite and maybe the odd exclusive for most gamers.

Hope those that waited enjoy it. It strayed too far from what I expect from Final Fantasy but I hope its good for newcomers to the series.

@Ralizah

Its on purpose. They know people will double & even triple dip if they stagger releasing on consoles and PC.

GTA 6 coming to consoles will make people who mainly play on PC, get it for a console and a year later they will re-buy it for their PC.

Expect GTA 6 to follow a similar release schedule to GTA 5:

First release on PS5 / Xbox Series X
Then release on PC
Then re-release on PS6 / Xbox

@EvenStephen7

RIGHT?!

These games were my childhood!

Platinuming all of them

TIME TO SPLIT!

Timesplitters fans gather!!! Its our month😁

"25% bigger than Valhalla"

Bigger isn't always better.

Valhalla was such a slog it put me off from even finishing it.

The fact that majority of games are still released on PS4 defeats the purpose of upgrading for many people.

Black Ops 6
EA Sports 25
God Of War Ragnarok
Horizon
Hogwarts Legacy

Add in the F2P games like Fortnite / Apex, most casual gamers don't see the point.

Give me a Goro Majima story in it and I'm sold.

Absolutely loved queens blood. Would love more of it and would love being able to play against real people online.

Rebirth is my GOTY for now. Adored it. 120 hours

6/10

Dont play Mortal Kombat so had no idea there

Time to catch up on the backlog

@Czar_Khastik

There is a fantastic "short" 4 hour video on youtube that attempts this

Loved Until Dawn on PS4.

Hope they offer an upgrade path for existing owners.

Chasing the live service model is going to be one of Playstation's biggest regrets.

This is a horrendous sale.

You could get Yakuza 0-7 for less than £50 on previous sales.

Heck I got into the franchise with Yakuza 0 for £5. Best £5 I've spent.

Comments about to go wild🤣

Won't bother with it at all even if the beta is free. Would rather use time on something else.

GTA 6 will 100% do something similar and sell tens of millions of copies regardless

@Member_the_game

You are a good example of why EA knows they can get away with releasing the game yearly.

They know it will sell like hotcakes regardless of quality

REBIRTH for me and Its going to take a lot to beat it for me.

Infinite Wealth was amazing too

Let the man rest. He has more than earned it.

DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi on modern consoles will have me leaping for joy!

@Synthatron_Prime

Its really not. I missed having party members to control and previous entries had much deeper combat to master.

I understand they were experimenting with this but it strayed too much away from Final Fantasy. Felt like I was playing a worse version of Game Of Thrones

@KundaliniRising333

I was incredibly disappointed. I love final fantasy. Played nearly all of them but I just couldn't get into FF16.

I made it more than halfway through but found myself forcing myself to finish it instead of wanting to play it.

@DrVenture69

Can be found used for as low as £35 on FB marketplace

No wonder nearly 50% of PS users are still on PS4.

Spot on with the article. Money is the only language these companies undersfand. If Astro doesn't sell well, other platformers are unlikely to be greenlit

K Rose is a goated radio station

"All my exes live in texas!"

@MysticWangForce

This was me. Never had an Xbox so got a series S to go through the xbox catalogue and any gamepass games day 1

Currently playing it. Does everything a sequel should. Definitely going for the platinum.

Remasters of PS4 games screams creatively bankrupt.

Game plays fine on PS5 as it is. Love the game but hard pass.

One of the games that piqued my curiousity. Managing my expectations since its Free To Play but will still give it a shot

The real question is if whether The Last Of Us Part 3 / Finale releases before the end of this generation.

This is console war bait.

@__jamiie

If I didn't already have a PS5, I'd agree with you. I would play on PC. Better for the consumer and more variety / free online play etc.

Yet I do have one and have spent £500-£1000 on hardware. If for example, PS exclusives came day 1 on PC, instead of buying PS stuff, i'd build a nice rig with that money instead which allows me to play nearly everything except Nintendo games.

These companies aren't our friends. They want our money. I'm well aware. I'll game where its most convenient to do so, in the above scenario, a gaming PC would be far more economical with more variety (Steam /Gamepass /PS)

@8bitOG

The writing is on the wall. If they do that with PS6, will simply game on a PC instead and not buy the PS hardware.

@NEStalgia

You could be right. As a consumer, my only interest is whether the PS is a worthwhile investment for me. Whether me playing Sony exclusives alone doesn't benefit them, that's their issue. I saw their product and got it for my own reasons. It would be up to them to convince me to play other multiplat games on their hardware (sales / dlcs etc)

@__jamiie

I'd have little incentive to have a PS5 then. I'd sell it and game on PC.

I'd have access to Steam / Gamepass & PS Exclusives Day 1. Why would I have a PS5?

This strategy appears to be successful for Sony so we should expect this to be the new norm.

As long as its not day 1 on PC, then I don't see the issue. Get a PS5 to play the exclusives earlier than PC.

Expect a delay to Spring 2026.

Rockstar games rarely release on time.

GTA 6 will likely sell 10+ million copies on day 1 alone with this level of hype

@Zenos

And people do so like sheep.

Unless getting a steelbook case or something similar, no point pre-ordering.

@tsun11 Agreed

The latest Like A Dragon came has 4 years between them. Thats fine especially since they released other games like Lost Judgment and the man who erased his name inbetween.

Elder Scrolls & GTA 6 is taking the absolute piss. At this rate, we have to wait until 2037 for GTA 7 lol.

Will try it whenever it comes on PS Plus or Gamepass

Time to tackle the backlog. Resident Evil 2 Remake here I come
