I just don’t get the fuss over Immortality. I “played” it on GamePass and I just couldn’t get into it. And CoD MW2 gets nominated?!?! 😱 I like the way you say Elden ring is “in with a chance” when it’s one of the front runners 😂
I don’t like it when they go all out on a particular franchise. One month it was Assassin’s Creed, another Dragon Quest, and now Kingdom hearts. If you’re not interested in that particular franchise it means a big chunk of that month’s games hold no interest for you.
I’m pretty confident that GoW Ragnarok will be my game of the year. I did buy and play Elden Ring, but after 20 hours or so I gave up as it was too hard. It will be interesting to see what tops most of the end of year lists, out of Ragnarok or Elden Ring.
@Sil_Am Same here. I thought Dirt 5 was underrated and I got a lot of enjoyment out of it. It catered more towards the arcade crowd and that was fine by me.
I probably won’t end up buying it. I bought the first one…after a few months once the novelty had worn off it went in the loft, where it still is today.
To those that haven’t yet bought this excellent game, it’s now reduced (again!) to £6.99 for the “Game of the year edition” in the “November savings” sale. The GOTY edition includes both expansions (also excellent). Not forgetting the PS5 version will be a free upgrade!
Hopefully this is just an oversight, otherwise it’s a stupid move. At least GamePass gives you plenty of warning when and which games are leaving, and the info is usually easy to find - there’s sporadically a tile on the Home Screen saying “games leaving soon”.
I downloaded it over the weekend, but when I went to play it it asked for my phone number - I thought they ditched this? Sorry but I’m not giving out my phone number to play a bloody game!
This is disappointing, especially as I feel kinda spoilt by all the games this gen that do have a 60fps/performance mode. Some games do 30fps really well, Forza Horizon 5 and Horizon forbidden West are two examples, but they are the exceptions rather than the rule. Just hope GK falls into this category.
Definitely gonna give this a go! The trials are one of my favourite things about the premium sub. I’ve already bought Tiny Tina’s wonderlands on the back of the trial.
Love Ted Lasso! I got 6 months of Apple tv for free through my PS5, and have almost finished season 2 of Ted Lasso. It still won’t make me buy FIFA 23 though!
As much as I love TLoU, I’m actually kinda gutted it sold so well. I was hoping more people would vote with their wallets and wait for a sale, sending a clear message to Sony. That hasn’t happened 🙄
@Constable_What then they won’t get me back as a player. I played it for a while a few years ago…have now forgotten most of what I learnt (story, controls etc). I’m not gonna create another user account just for this game. I don’t see why they can’t just let you delete your current game then start afresh.

Hope we get to see more games use this technology.
Re: Hogwarts Legacy Looks Like Another Magical PS5, PS4 Open World
@rawzeku Is there no 60fps option for the game?
Re: Modern Warfare 2 Has Nearly Outsold Call of Duty: Vanguard in Europe Already
I haven’t bought or played a CoD game in years, but if they do a “free play weekend” I’ll give it a go.

Re: Soapbox: God of War Ragnarok Is a Real Game of the Year Rival to Elden Ring

Re: Sonic Frontiers (PS5) - Bold New Gamble for the Series Pays Off
I’ll be alternating between this and GoW Ragnarok! 🙂

For the players…with lots of disposable income

Re: Despite Scrapping PS4, Gotham Knights Is Just 30fps on PS5

Re: All DualSense PS5 Controller Colours
I quite like the cosmic red one, but I can’t justify spending £50 on it when my original white one works fine.
Re: PS Plus Extra, Premium PS5, PS4 Games for October 2022 Announced
My issue with these monthly drops is the lack of variety. Take away the Assassins creed and Dragons quest titles and there’s not a lot left 🙄
Re: Saints Row Dev Commited 'Long-Term', First Big Update Has 'Over 200' Improvements
I’m sure they can get it running higher than 1080p in performance mode on PS5.
Re: The Last of Us Was 'Ahead of Its Time', Sony Wanted 'Definitive Version'
Still hoping the gaming gods give us a full remake of Ico, but not holding my breath.
Re: God of War Ragnarok Goes Gold Ahead of November Release Date on PS5, PS4
Have to admit that I was expecting a last minute delay, so this is great news! 🙂
Re: CD Projekt Red to Test Games on All Platforms Equally Going Forward, Not Just on PC
By the time the next Witcher and Cyberpunk games come out I doubt PS4/Xbox one will even be a thing.

Re: Talking Point: We Need to Discuss This Horizon Zero Dawn PS5 Remaster
The game is only 5 years old ffs 🤦🏻♂️
Re: Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Won't Have Difficulty Options, Producer Says It's 'Not an Easy Game'
@riceNpea This isn’t a FromSoftware title, so was hoping it would include difficulty options.
Re: Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty Won't Have Difficulty Options, Producer Says Its 'Not an Easy Game'
That’s off my “to buy” list then. Thanks FromSoftware 🙄
Re: PS Plus Premium Adds Two Hour Steelrising Trial for PS5
Definitely gonna give this a go! The trials are one of my favourite things about the premium sub. I’ve already bought Tiny Tina’s wonderlands on the back of the trial.
Re: FIFA 23 Ropes in Ted Lasso, AFC Richmond for PS5, PS4 Soccer Sim
Love Ted Lasso! I got 6 months of Apple tv for free through my PS5, and have almost finished season 2 of Ted Lasso. It still won’t make me buy FIFA 23 though!

Re: Train Sim World 3 (PS5) - Dovetail's Best Railway Simulation to Date
@get2sammyb I’m tempted to get the Spirit of Steam DLC now! May pick it up in the next sale.

Re: Poll: Did You Buy The Last of Us: Part I?
Waiting for a price drop…and I mean a BIG price drop! Either that or when it eventually comes to PS+ extra/premium
Re: Cyberpunk 2077 News Incoming as CDPR Announces Night City Wire Broadcast
I’m more interested in a Witcher 3 update than Cyberpunk. It’s due out Q4 and we still haven’t seen any next-gen gameplay 🙄 another delay incoming? 🤔
Re: Naughty Dog Reflects on How The Last of Us: Part I Honors the Original
Look forward to playing this…whenever it lands on PS+ extra/premium.
Re: Reaction: PS5 Price Hike a Sobering Sign of the Times
So both Microsoft and Nintendo are saying they have no plans to put up their console prices, making Sony look like the bad guys…good!
Re: Sifu's New Gameplay Modifiers Add Infinite Health, Crazy Challenge Runs, and More
Hope they add this to PS+ extra/premium soon.
Re: PS5 Is the Only Console Getting Price Rise, Microsoft and Nintendo Have 'No Plans'
@__jamiie Microsoft’s pockets are very deep so this could definitely happen, especially with all the games they have lined up for 2023.
Re: PS5 Is the Only Console Getting Price Rise, Microsoft and Nintendo Have 'No Plans'
From the same/only company that sells £/$70 games 🙄
Re: Atlas Fallen More Like Horizon, God of War Than Dark Souls
As someone who finds all the souls-like games too hard (looking at you FromSoftware 😉) this is good news.
Re: Gotham Knights PS5 Release Date Brought Forward by Four Days
Makes a nice change to getting delayed. Not surprised though, considering it’s already gone gold over 2 months before release.
Re: Sonic Frontiers Release Date Leaked, Launches the Day Before God of War Ragnarok
Well…good luck with that!
Re: Saints Row (PS5) - Seriously Dumb Fun Outweighs Dated Open World
Only 1080p @60fps?!? C’mon we know the PS5 can do better than that
Re: Get Back to Nature in Elder Scrolls Online's Lost Depths DLC
@sanderson72 thanks 👍
Re: Get Back to Nature in Elder Scrolls Online's Lost Depths DLC
Apart from the base game, what is considered the best expansion so far? And can you start your game there?
Re: Rollerdrome (PS5) - Just As Good As Tony Hawk's Pro Skater
@bpomber it’s not even an hour trial - it’s 35 mins! Quite enjoyed it, not sure if I’ll buy the main game though.
Re: Explore Genshin Impact's Massive 3.0 Sumeru Update on 24th August
@Constable_What @Constable_What not sure the game is worth all that hassle, but thanks for the info anyway 👍
Re: Cult of the Lamb (PS5) - Deliciously Evil, Giddily Gruesome, and Bloody Brilliant
Really enjoying this so far. The gameplay loop of doing runs and managing your cult is very addictive.
Re: Explore Genshin Impact's Massive 3.0 Sumeru Update on 24th August
