This is to ensure that when this month passes, people are still able to claim and play Dreams.

There will be more PS5 users buying consoles later in the year and this allows them to try it out

To think they have managed these numbers without having many PS5 only games is wild.

Returnal
Ratchet and Clank
Final Fantasy 16
Demon Souls

@Splat

Its almost a certainty that GTA Online 2.0 will be its main focus.

Going to be loaded with microtransactions and GTA Plus. I expect them to minimise the single player and incentivize people to play online.

The Rockstar we knew has been dead for a long time.

No interest at all. Played and beaten several times on PS3.

Save your time and money

Beep lets me know if I accidentally turn on the console so It shall stay.

@Bamila

At 552 games played, are their any PS exclusives you haven't played lol.

Currently playing Alan Wake Remastered.

We're still going to call this Fifa 24

Crash Bandicoot exclusive to Xbox. Who would have guessed

@Rob_230

Well said. This episodic format where you wait for the next episode really messes up the consistent flow of the game.

They are basically telling people not to bother getting it until the full season is complete.

Fortnite meets COD

PS5 Slim is almost certainly on its way.

Black Friday deals should be great

@Arnna

Agreed. My friends haven't bothered upgrading because there has literally been no reason for them to.

They played GOW Ragnarok. Horizon Forbidden West, Hogwarts Legacy and they love COD so they have been playing COD MW2 as well.

The only time I can see them upgrading is this winter once Spider-Man 2 and games like FF7 Rebirth come out which are PS5 only.

This winter is the only time there is a real need to upgrade. Nearly all PS5 exclusives can be found on PS4.

Lost me at "Free To Play"

All I heard was "Microtransactions and ads"

I am more invested in knowing how this game improves upon the first one than someone's hairstyle.

Hope their severance packages are meaty with all the money they made from conning people into buying Cyberpunk 2077

@StrawberryTurtle

Fifa (Now EA Sports FC 24)
Call Of Duty
NBA 2K24

Consistently the best selling games of the year after year.

Baffles me too but If people have shown they are willing to pay £60-70 every year for a few updates, I would give the people what they accept from us as a publisher.

Makes you wonder what the heck are the other studios doing when Insomniac could have 3-4 games released this generation so far and they have none yet.

£300 for the Digital PS5 is a great price point

Ignoring all trailers as I know this is a Day 1 purchase.

Getting an Xbox Series S refurbished for £150 is going to be extremely tempting with Gamepass.

That tongue looks so good!

The Last Of Us Part 1 can be found for £30 regularly on marketplaces.

We're going to miss Physical once it inevitably gets phased out.

Christmas 2023 is going to do record numbers at this rate especially with Spider-Man 2

Yakuza goes on sale regularly but I highly recommend anyone to play Yakuza 0 before it leaves in August.

One of the best franchises ever

Parents should not be putting their credit card details on any console. Use giftcards and actually monitor what their children are spending it on.

People are literally paying full price for an expansion lol.

Sadly it will still be one of the best selling games of 2023. Us gamers complain and then reward their nonsense practices so I wouldn't bother changing either if I was them.

@get2sammyb

And yet it will still be one of the best selling games of 2023.

Why should they try hard when mediocrity gets rewarded

Bioshock Collection goes on sale for under £10 regularly for those that have missed out.

Great FPS collection and for the price of a medium pizza at Dominos.

Rarely buy games since 2018 due to subscription models. As someone who games on a budget, paying less than £80/Year for access to all the titles just makes sense as I rarely ever replay games.

Tomba 2 is one of my fave platformers!

Gives me time to go through Alan Wake and the past few months PS Plus Extra backlog

This deal is going through.

Sony is likely already planning for the future and how to counter this with their own moves

eg: Square-Enix being bought out.

I wouldn't be surprised if major Sony meetings are being called for as I type this.

In the short - term, nothing much will change but the precedent has been set. Microsoft is going to try buy Sony out of the gaming market and with how deep their pockets are, I am waiting for the inevitable acquisition of SEGA or something similar.

The best NFS game ever.

Not much will change in the short term since COD will release on Playstation for 10 years but Sony has to start making counter moves now or they could disappear by 2040

@Member_the_game

That's what they literally hope for with these trials. You'd be surprised how many people are paying for subscriptions they don't even use.

Surprised they never released Final Fantasy 13 Trilogy on PS4/5.

I am sure there is a market for it.

Day 1 Purchase.

@riceNpea

Extremely well said!

Gambling Simulator in disguise of a football game.

GTA V - 180 Million Copies Sold

Final Fantasy Franchise - 180 Million Copies Sold

No wonder Rockstar are taking their sweet time with GTA 6!

Instagram is enough social media for me. Can't be bothered with this.

Will play it on the Series S.

Save myself $70.

PS5 / Series S - Consoles for the generation.

Gambling Simulator in disguise of a basketball game.

Yakuza & Judgment games are meant to be played in Japanese.

Adds so much more to the game.

Good for him but I'll likely never use the dub.

Do not waste your money on Saints Row.

It will eventually be put on PS Plus and even then don't waste your time.

If true, excellent month!

Will play all 3 of them after finishing Far Cry 6

If 3 Million copies sold in a week isn't impressive anymore, the industry is in trouble.
