Was a terrible show even with expectations low. Like last years show the only good game was shown at the end. That strange camera game was just pure cringe. Will be interesting to see how they market the PS5 Pro with no big games releasing. Could be 2 years in a row where the MS show is better. Which considering the state of Xbox is saying something.
That was just awful, no big games. Only Astro Bot for me out of all of them. Really aren't helping themselves if they're going to be releasing a pointless Pro console. Next for me will be the MS one in June, at least with it we're guaranteed to get more COD info.
My series X is just a gamepass console now and even then it's not used often. For this reason I'll not be buying any xbox games on the playstation. I've not gotten into either sea of thieves or grounded. Played a bit of hi-fi rush, and didn't try pentiment. Really could just rename the next xbox to GamePass Console (GPC). Especially if they do start going more full multiplatform.
I am really hoping to see something of Ghost of Tsushima 2! Even if it is going to be early next year release. Astrobot has to make an appearance, the free game was great. Wolverine and Naughty Dog's next game would be great additions as well. Trying not to get too hyped for this state of play considering some of the other disappointments.
@__jamiie Can bet MS will be advertising like mad to get people to upgrade to series X. They'll maybe even bundle in GP for 3 months to get ppl to switch.
@Voltan If u don't have a series X already ur not likely going to go out and get one and a subscription just because this is on GP. What it could impact is those still waiting to upgrade from PS4 and Xbox one.
@MrBook Yea, def wouldn't be switching if I didn't already have it. Forza 7 def feels a lot better to play now than it did when first released. The horizon series is good craic but def needs to do something different for the next one. PS5 is the main console though. Working my way through PS4 and PS5 backlog. Just soo many great games. Loved PUBG on the PC, but too many hackers. So just left it.
I played GTA 5 on the PS3. Haven't played it since and any interest I had for a new one has waned. Will pick it up on sale sometime as long as there is a good single player story.
@Milt Will be interesting to see what they are. Looking forward to the show. Hopefully there will be a few interesting ones. I have no interest in any of the live service games.
@obiwan3001 Hopefully will be a good size of a game. If Ghost of Tsushima 2 is out early 25 I'll be happy.
@TedLassoNikes PSVR2 is great, think the problem with it is the lack of big games. Though saying that I haven't been keeping up with any VR news as the screens on mine went bad after 3 weeks. Sony gave me a refund
My PS5 is upstairs and isn't wired but have 1G fibre. Would be using this in bed in the room beside the room the PS5 is in. Anyone else have a setup like that. Any issues and should I get it?
@rjejr Yea, its the .99 that subconsciously makes u think it's less. I remember reading about it somewhere years ago saying its a marketing ploy. Can get a bit more out of people without them noticing.
Edit: My sub is up in July so will def be cancelling.
Not sure what way they could go with Kratos. They're bound to follow Loki on his journey though. @Contimaloris Na that was horrendous, I miss Uncharted! 😞
@Northern_munkey Maybe just need to give it a bit longer to get used to the differences. From what I've seen so far there is def a lot more content in the EA one.
Generally hate roguelike games, but I'm forcing myself to play through this one. Played a bit and it is has a lot more story than I expected. Though as with most roguelike games will probably be bored of it before getting all of the story out of it.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Live-Action Trailer Revealed
@NinjaNicky Will need to wait and see, but can see in some instances where people will be willing to switch.
Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Live-Action Trailer Revealed
@IOI Sony def needs more competition. They've had it easy this generation.

Re: Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Live-Action Trailer Revealed
That's me using the series X more then! There's no way GP doesn't go up in price because of this.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for June 2024 Announced
Soo many PSVR2 games. I'm going to have to get the PSVR2 out of it's box to see if it's fixed itself.
Will the PS2 games have trophies the same as the PS1 games?
I bought AEW a while ago, so guess I'll sell it on.
Re: Soapbox: Once a PS4 Console Exclusive, PS5 Players Are Missing a Visual Stunner in Hellblade 2
So its worth turning the series X on and downloading then.
Re: Microsoft Commits to Next Call of Duty Game on Xbox Game Pass, New Report Says
Think MS aim is to become a massive publisher and get GP onto everything else and then leave the console market.

Re: Microsoft Commits to Next Call of Duty Game on Xbox Game Pass, New Report Says
@MrBook Already got series X and GP already. Only use it now and again for Forza and playing some different games on GP.
Re: Microsoft Commits to Next Call of Duty Game on Xbox Game Pass, New Report Says
I guess I'll be moving over to the series X for COD this year then if its free with gamepass.
Re: GTA 6 PS5 Release Window Narrowed to Fall 2025
I played GTA 5 on the PS3. Haven't played it since and any interest I had for a new one has waned. Will pick it up on sale sometime as long as there is a good single player story.

So just Astro Bot for the rest of this year then.

Re: Returnal Studio Housemarque Teases News for Tomorrow
Not a fan of rogue-like games. Still gave it a go and could see why people that do like those kind of games would like it.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Stellar Blade?
Too many other games, added it to the wishlist and will get it when the backlog drops down a bit.
Re: PS Stars Rewards Now Include Top PS5 Games Rise of the Ronin, Helldivers 2, More

Re: EA Play Subscription Price Is Going Up Next Month
@BeerIsAwesome Yea, def need to stop looking up how long ago things actually happened. I feel like I'll blink and I'll be holding a walking cane. ðŸ˜

Re: EA Play Subscription Price Is Going Up Next Month
@rjejr £4 increasing to £6 is an increase of 50%. £2 is 50% of £4.
@BeerIsAwesome 8 years! Dam where did they go!?
Re: 16 More Games Coming to PS Plus Extra, Premium in April
Glad I held out on deliver us Mars. Will def be adding Dave the diver and tales of Kenzera to the backlog.

Re: Sony Santa Monica Studio Seemingly Hiring for New God of War Game
@Juanalf 😂😂 Thinking about it they could really only do another Kratos game if he got bored and decided to go on a killing spree somewhere else.
Re: Sony Santa Monica Studio Seemingly Hiring for New God of War Game
@BamBamBaklava89 Blasphemy! GoT 2 is the only thing I'm really looking forward to at the minute. 😂
Re: Sony Santa Monica Studio Seemingly Hiring for New God of War Game
Not sure what way they could go with Kratos. They're bound to follow Loki on his journey though. @Contimaloris Na that was horrendous, I miss Uncharted! 😞
Re: Video: Our Favourite PS5 Games of 2024 So Far

Re: Rumour: Sony to Host Big PlayStation Event Next Month
They'll get me to buy a PS5 Pro if they release a Ghost of Tsushima 2 edition that includes the ultimate edition of the game.

Re: Big PS Store Discounts on Major PS5, PS4 Titles for PS Plus Members This Weekend
@Northern_munkey Maybe just need to give it a bit longer to get used to the differences. From what I've seen so far there is def a lot more content in the EA one.
Re: Big PS Store Discounts on Major PS5, PS4 Titles for PS Plus Members This Weekend
@Northern_munkey I managed to get it for that price. I wish I hadn't. Don't like it as much as the 2k game.
Re: Rise of the Ronin (PS5) - A Safe, Outdated Open World Game
Guess I'll just have to keep waiting for Ghost of Tsushima 2. Was hoping this could at least scratch the itch for a bit.
Re: Huge PS5, PS4 Games Discounted for the Weekend Only
I ended up getting EA PGA and I wish I hadn't. I don't think it's as good as PGA 2K.

Re: God of War Trilogy PS5 Remaster Rumours Surface from Suspect Source
@StylesT I'd get behind that. Would much prefer a remake at 4k60 that just a remaster.
Re: DLC Review: God of War Ragnarok: Valhalla (PS5) - An Essential Epilogue for Fans of the Series

Re: Rumour: PS5 Pro Targeting September 2024, Will Have Proprietary Upscaling Tech
Meh. It's honestly not needed. The PS4 Pro was released because of the uptake in 4K TVs. I'll be waiting for the PS6.
Re: The Last of Us Multiplayer Project Is Officially Cancelled
Excellent news! They made the right decision. Looking forward to more excellent single player games.
