Many, many good game reveals (for me)! This one is definitely on my watch list!

@snakemake You don't remember a good portion of us complaining at Nintendo for not porting Astral Chain to the PS4? Because I sure as heck do.

Whoa, Adam got jacked!! Nice!

@GodGamer Why in the hell are you talking to me as if I am an X-Box fanboy? I'm a Sony fan, through and through. I just can't stand those toxic fanboys who crap-talk on other consoles. And like it or not, the PS brand's fanbase has a toxic section which uses the exclusives as a reason to validate themselves and talk crap to owners of other consoles. They don't represent the entire fandom, but they ARE there.

These are the people I can't stand. If you think PS fans don't act like this, you let your fanboy-goggles get the best of you.

@DerMeister Spot on. And frankly, I think this was Sony's best State of Play to date. I mean, RE3? Dreams with release date? Ghost of Tsushima? We even got indie fan favorite, Goose.

This was pure awesomesauce. Which is why I get eye rolls when I see idiots giving Death Stranding 0/10s because ... it also got released on PC? Seriously?

Of course they feel insecure. How else can they constantly look down on other console owners if they don't have their precious exclusive-catalog to back their $h&t talk up?

@nessisonett ASS-MAAAAN!

I wouldn't hold my breath for Witchfire - didn't the devs say that it's a next-gen game?

@Ridwaano Oh - really? That's awesome!

Oh wait. I'll be at work.

Eh, I'll watch the youtube trailer the second it's uploaded.

Then view the whole thing back at home.

Dammit, that means 4 after midnight for us Greeks.

@ShogunRok Oh God, yes! THIS is how you make a state of play, not with indie reveals no one remembers an hour later.

Kevin Bao: Em, but Your Honor, imitation is the most sincere form of flattery, right?

Judge: …

Kevin Bao: Right?

Judge: ...

That's awesome and all, but CyGames, don't forget that there is another project of yours due to an awakening and needs to arisen.

MS lost the console war the second it decided to have all its first-party games on PC as well. From the second the X-Box doesn't have exclusives, it means there's little reason to buy one.

Want Halo? Buy an X-Box or use a decent PC you might already have.

Want Bloodborne? Buy a PS4.

But I can see X-Box in the future becoming a streaming/subscription service that even goes into the PS eco-system. Pay 15$ a month to have Halo/Gears/Forza/MS First-Party games available on your PS6 as well. Or buy them on a PC/X-Box. Or subscribe on X-Box/PC for 8$ a month.

Phil Spencer is right when he says that MS is all about options. I respect that. Sony has awesome exclusives, but they're more narrow-minded where options are concerned.

@Claude Was the one that was supposed to have Yuan-Ti as main antagonists, right? I'm SO there.

@Neolit Yeah, I know about casettes (first home computer was a ZX Spectrum 48K), but I was talking about consoles, mostly.

@GamingFan4Lyf The SSD is going to do just that. In order to reduce loading times, HDDs copy the same portions of files in order for the hard drive to spend less time looking for said files. SSDs do that instantaneously, ergo games would need less space.

Better textures will increase the file size back up though.

From cartridges, to compact discs, to hard drives, to solid state drives, to cartridges.

The circle is complete.

I definitely will buy this game at some point - would've bought it day 1 if I wasn't out of cash.

Hope that fans will buy this to make EA understand that single player games very much have a future.

@ShogunRok After Andromeda and Anthem you shouldn't have any faith in Bioware, period.

I can't even begin to describe all the Fs I don't give about the PS5's looks. All I care about is specs and heating issues. It can look like an X-box original for all I care.

Is it strong? Can it stay cool? Is the fan quiet? Those are the important questions, what's inside.

Stop focusing on the cover, and focus on the book.

I just want 6 months to pass so that we may get official info. I don't think I've ever was more excited for a new PlayStation.

I have such a huge backlog that I simply don't care if the good games take their time. Seriously, I have yet to beat Horizon, Doom, Spider-Man, Red Dead 2, FFXV, Monster Hunter World, Nioh, Dark Souls 3, Bloodborne, Dragon's Crown, RE Revelations and RE6, Odin Sphere, Middle Earth Shadow of Mordor, half the Assassin Creeds, and 60 more AAA titles.

So yeah, not in any hurry at all.

The guys who made Slain are turning out to be one heck of a dev team ...

This is exactly how I felt when mk11 was bombed.

creates articles complaining about too many remasters

complains about no mass effect trilogy remaster

The modern gamer in a nutshell.

Game is looking better and better!

... you're $%itting me.

@ApostateMage
Malakas is one a-hole.
Malakes is many a-holes. (plural)

So, you should say that Bethesda and Bioware are a bunch of malakes.

Just doing my Greek duty.

@BridgeToClarity You probably don't really like the post-apocalyptic, lets-go-back-to-the-sixties setting of those games? Did you feel uncompelled to finish Bioshock games too?

Nothing wrong with that.

I have started playing Outer Worlds via Game Pass on the Xbox, and I am amazed at how addicting it can get. I always get the itch to explore just above that hill, all named NPCs are unique, the player character's responses are almost perfect and the colors have me hooked.

Basically, it's everything Fallout 76 isn't.

I agree with every thing Sammy said. It's going to be glorious.

@Porco Nah, I can see Demon's Souls being a fully fledged remake with superior animations, 3D models and effects, not just a resolution bump and a few better textures.

@PhantomXIII I think it's about personal experience, tbh.

Like, I think the main reason many people (myself included) consider FFVII the best JRPG ever is because it was the first JRPG they played (especially if they were computer gamers who got into consoles with the PSX as their first console).

To quote words of wisdom:

WE DO IT

@get2sammyb Agreed. Though truth be told, PSX and PS2 are more than doable, if Sony wills it. It's the PS3 which will probably be problematic for the PS5.

@Neolit Hmmm … so one of my HDMI cables does not support 4K?

@carlos82 Dude, I'm telling you, I can't go 4K if my ps4 is connected with the psvr. You think I'm making this up?

@Neolit terrific. Day one consumers always get screwd.

@carlos82 Don't think so. 4K is greyed out when I have the ps4 connected with the adaptor of the psvr. No hdr is a no-no as well.

Hopefully psvr2 won't have need of any adaptors and can be directly wi-fi connected to the console ... maybe just taking a usb slot for a tiny signal transmitter or something.

There were three things that made my vr headset collect dust.

1. The cables.

2. The low resolution.

3. The fact that your ps4 cannot have a 4K output as long as the psvr adapter is plugged in your tv and ps4, even if you're not using psvr.

If the psvr2 corrects all of the above, I can see myself giving it another go.

I'm hesitant to buy any AAA game in 2020 - those might as well get superior, next-gen versions a few months later on.

Yeah, not really worried until they clarify this.

Demon's souls on the ps5?

Yes please.

All those articles make me salivate. Can't wait for the next gen, especially if it's accompanied with a ffvii with updated visuals & effects, as well as dino crisis and horizon 2.

@BowTiesAreCool dying light does that too.

Day one, definitely.

Browsing the news, it seems that Ms Marvel's inclusion will be nothing less than divisive. Whether that's because of "WHERE'SWOLVERINE!?!?" or other … political reasons, I cannot determine (yet).

I personally like her as a character. She doesn't have this snotty, arrogant 'I'm-always-right-and-I'm-here-to-make-women-look-awesome' attitude of Carol Danvers and she's a humble, enthusiastic person with her heart in the right place. Which is what a hero should be, imo.

Show me Spidey in the core roster and Venom as DLC and I'm sold.

… nah, I'm buying this game even if it doesn't have those two.

(but seriously, give me Spidey and Venom)

@Siarheicka (hisses while keeping his voice down) Don't! Say that out-loud!

@Luna-Harmony Your PS4 sounding like that is not normal. You either need a better (applied) thermal paste, better thermal pads, or just need to clean your heatsink of dust.

Mine sounded like a jet engine as well. Heatsink was clean but thermal pads and thermal paste did all the difference. It now goes 60-70% quieter than it was before.
