U might as well get a PC at that price.
almost a grand for a bit of storage, absolutely insane pricing.

Oh its an extraction shooter now? Nah im out.
2025 is gonna be a bloodbath for these type of games, Marathon, Exoborne and now this.

As a show it was shockingly poor, I mean TENCENT winning some madeup Kind to the Enviroment award, I mean really!

Also I've realised, I am just over most modern gaming, I was more interested in games shown in the Pre Show, that Horror Farm Sim, Cairn the climbing game, seemed really cool and at least creative, out of the "Big" games only Sniper Elite and the Dune game got me interested and CIV looked cool as well.

I actually this looked pretty decent! Though for some reason I had it in my head it was a single player / optional co-op mmo

I just watched Spawnwave play an hour of this on the PS5, Was a bit boring tbh! Just looked like general meandering inbetween boss fights really. He played on performance mode for most of it, but did switch between the different modes available, the graphics do take quite a hit on performance but it plays very smoothly, with the occasional frame rate glitch. Recommend watching the video if you're interested in the game.

The PS6 will release before this game.

£60? LOL
Just buy the original for pennies instead.

Maybe Helldivers 2 was a mistake afterall

Cant wait for all the announcements for announcements for new remakes coming soon.. dont forget to "Wishlist on steam NOW"

I want to like this, but the PS3 demo-vibes this gives off is so off-putting!

There's no hype surrounding it cos its a remakeremaster nobody ever wanted, we could have had Until Dawn 2 instead.

For context I love the game, but I am absolutely not about to fork out presumably £50 - £70 for a pointless remaster, so I hope like Last of Us 2 there's a £10 upgrade fee if you own the original.

This is actually pretty cool, I might not have noticed in the film otherwise, cant wait to go see it this weekend!

I was dragged along to this on Sunday on a 3rd date, I have not messaged him back since then. It was rotten.

All in for the Halloween one, Just the ticket for spoopy season!

After Valhalla im checked out of the "BIG" AC Titles for the foreseeable, give me more Mirage style adventures though, loved that.

I got one of these emails asking for a Helldivers 2 review, might actually do it now I know its for the actual store

2 hrs is pretty nice for a base playthrough in this genre tbh like said, these games have a pretty high replay value for those of us that are fans of this kind of game, pretty nice its made in Edin as well, some good news for the Scottish gaming devs esp after the closing down of the big CGI company in Glasgow.

I think they will be waiting to see how Marathon lands, if it makes the money and is a hit, they'll pull focus to that and slowly wind down D2. If Marathon is a failure there'll be some kind of Destiny 3, there's just no way D2 can continue on with the current sub-par Episode strategy they are currently rolling with and with no big expansion planned for anytime soon, its hard to see how they keep it ticking along with everything going on at their studio

Since it Grubbs i'll wait for some proper verification, but all the messages from the now ex staff and people who are still there are all pretty much on the same page, ie Pete Parsons has to go and that none of this is any of Sonys doing.

By all accounts the staff have been voicing concerns over quality issues and numerous other issues for years but management have completely ignored them and steam rolled ahead anyway, hence all these unavoidable mistakes, pretty grim reading to be fair.

Seems like Sony are the "good guys" in this mess, offering to take on some staff etc and honestly if Sony need to wrangle control of management, let them. I dont think its what any of the Bungie staff want, but I think they know they need it.

Im sure the dev codename for this is "Gummybears" Its been in development for about 3/4 years already so who knows how it will turn out, if it ever even gets released, but was meant to be the opposite of Destiny ie not dark and miserable

And yet CEO Pete Parsons is still there, stinking up the place like a rotten corpse leading them from one disaster thats somehow worse than the last. I feel for everyone who has undeservedly lost their jobs while the worst of them remain in power and with a massive salary.

If there was somewhere I could try it beforehand, then it would be a possibility, but literally nowhere around me offers it, that and the lack of games that interest me is also a factor, would love to give No Mans Sky and Resident Evil a go but cant realistically take the plunge without knowing is it gonna make me feel sick while playing and also will wearing glasses affect it etc

I've played almost every day since launch, which has surprised me! Great little game to blast away a few hours!

Not listed here but Prince of Persia Lost Crown is on sale for £21 and is a steal at that price!

I''ll forgive them for the opening ceremony if they can get Daft Punk to reunite for the closing ceremony

Meaty price cut, but still not interested! Not wireless, and with the exception of No Mans Sky, none of the games interest me tbh

Good for them! I hope they win, and I just hope this doesn't have the opposite effect! ie Big game companies realising they dont need actors after all and just go all in on AI, less troublesome, less money etc is the absolute worst outcome.

File under "just because you can, doesn't mean you should"

My gaming has fallen off a cliff this gen, so i'm playing even less than I normally would do in the summer. Even been to the "outside" quite a few times!

Now that Marathon has been changed to be another soulless Hero Shooter, I wish it was releasing this year, just for the mess of it all!

I have a feeling it'll end up being shelved after Bungie watching all the feedback Concord is getting.

@PuppetMaster Its not "just" a farming sim, and thats all I'll say on that

@Kanji-Tatsumi People shouldn't get over the review at all, mainly because it was one of the worst things ever written on this website, it was clearly written by someone who had no interest in the game whatsoever (which is fine btw) but if your gonna give any game a 3/10 score (also fine) you would expect the review to go into details about why, there was none of that, what was written was inaccurate and didn't include a single thing about anything the game had to offer beyond shooting things with guns.

If you read and look to reviews to inform part of your judgement on whether to play/buy a game then you should want reviews to be written well and detailed, and this review just wasn't any of those things.

I barely play my PS5, its just dusty bones at this point. I'm mainly playing retro or indies when I can be bothered to game with the occasional bit of D2 thrown in, this gen has literally put me off gaming for the first time ever. I did not fork out almost £600 to play remasters of last gen games and bland cookie cutter cross gen sequels. Where's the innovation? the new IPs?

He's right but the gaming landscape is very different to when Warframe was released, its absolutely over-saturated with live service games and if your game isn't making an impact on release, its pretty much facing a near impossible task to recover from it.

The only game I can think of that was abandoned too early was Anthem, a real shame it wasn't given its proper chance. Nobody is sticking about for generic superhero brain rot like Suicide Squad no matter how many updates it gets, cos why would they? Its nothing special in a market absolutely full of Superhero games.

Concord is a good game? Its pretty much the only website that seems to think it is, after THAT 3/10 review for a game thats doing far better than this. I just dont trust this websites reviews anymore.

I dont wish for any game to fail, as it must be soul destroying for anyone working on a title that ends up that way, but this game is DOA, its not even up for debate. Those Twitch figures are utterly abysmal, if the game was any good it would be attracting an audience, I'm a complete no-mark streamer who only streams once in a blue moon, but even I've had more viewers than that.

Oh goody, another XBOX related article that has nothing to do with PlayStation on a PlayStation website. Enjoy the flame bait clicks I guess

There is literally less than a handful of PS5 only games that have even slightly tickled what the PS5 can actually do, what do we need a Pro for? to make all those remakes remasters cross gen games pop-off? if there is a PRO its just a pure cash grab, this has been the most disappointing gen in a long time.

It finally made the jump from phones to console I see, the mtx and restrictions on the mobile version ensured I deleted it after 3 whole races, theres a decent racer hidden deep, deep somewhere behind the paywalls, which is a shame.

This is a true 3/10 or less game

Its literally just Assassins Creed with a Star Wars skin isnt it

My head says 7 but my heart knows its a 6. Its fun and has surprisingly in-depth build crafting, but lots of room for improvement, and it seems like the devs are taking that feedback on board.

Pre-ordering games to access the Beta is a trend that needs to die, and quickly. If you want people to play your game let them try the demos for free, otherwise what you hiding by locking it away behind a paywall?

Very harsh review TBH, Its not a 3/10 game at all, its most definitely a mid range looter with lots of room for improvement, so falls in the 5/6/7 range. Quite a few different guns with unique abilities that def can change a build quite a lot.

Review also doesnt mention all the buildcrafting and modding possibilities, which can get quite involved and can change your character from a wimpy glass cannon to an overpowered DPS machine.

Is it grindy? absolutely, if you want those OP mods and builds youre gonna need to grind a bit for them, but its relatively straight forward as the game signposts where you get the resources and mods to drop from, so its just a matter of replaying certain missions, boss fights etc

Its holding my attention more than I expected, and I prob wont delve tooo deep into the buildcrafting and grinding, but having fun with it atm

"appeal to ageing fans of this once-great subgenre" Now why do I feel personally attacked by this lol Game looks good though, im going through a little bullethell phase atm so game is landing in my sweet spot, currently replaying Gynoug on the ole PS5, still as great as it was.

Im enjoying atm, its very Warframe meets Outriders, it is nothing like Destiny 2. I know its free, but the customisations and MTX are over the top insane in this, excluding the battle pass, we have Panda costumes, gross school girl costumes, and then theres all the other stuff, like namecards, spawns, UI interfaces, weapon skins, colour palettes, all for real money of course.

So i'll see, I'll prob play the campaign but the insane grind for everything and all the MTX stuff will prob make me lose interest much quicker than expected.

TBH I think this it just settling down to its actual player base numbers after a period of extreme hype, if it can regularly stick to 45000ish, there shouldn't be too much to worry about, pretty decent numbers for a AA live service game.

Not gonna lie, its the first time im tempted to try one of the annual cash grabs, I mean sport games.

I used to feel sorry for his wife, but she chose to remain with a complete piece of garbage. Trash, the both of them.

Ahhh Game,, where Pre-owned games were more expensive than the new unsold versions

Astrobot is the big one for me.

AC Shadows and the Until Dawn remakeremaster are both on the wait for the patches and the sale list

Hardcore survival, doesnt bother me at all, adding in PVP with it means i'm 100% checked out from this going forwards.
