Perturbator

Looks good!

I hope they will build upon the roguelike mode that was included in the DLC of the first game. It was ridiculously difficult but had so much fun joining up with strangers online to see how far we could get.

It looks promising but will need to see more gameplay.

Capcom representatives will enter the stage, announce that Deep Down has finally been cancelled, and then there will be 35 minutes of mourning accompanied by very sad music.

It's crazy if its come to the point where we have reason to celebrate a full-price game not having microtransactions like a free-to-play game. It seems Oblivions oft-ridiculed "Horse Armor" had the last laugh after all...

Game looks great though, one of the best from Sonys last showcase, imo.

It looks jankier than a ED-209 attempting to riverdance, but I'll take it!

Wow, Liam Croft sounds like he's one step away from wandering the streets with a "The End is Near" sign in hand.

None of em!

I got plenty of backlog games so no need to feel bad for me.

Oh my, is it Geoff O'Clock already?

I'll take "Games That Look Nothing Like Their Teaser Trailers" for $500, Alex!

That's OK. What's more important is that it has the great character customization of the first game and the goofy pawn quotes.

Alright, but next one I'll watch the day after so I can fast-forward most of it.

I'm afraid SH2 will end up a trainwreck. Looking at Bloobers former games this is pretty much a AA studio taking on a AAA project, and that can quickly go AAAAH!

Hope I'm proved wrong though, and this ends up being a worthy remake!

This sounds kinda promising, actually. I hope they don't have to rename it because of the Wipeout TV show though.

It's too bad Blomkamp didn't get to make that Alien movie btw, because whatever it was like I have no doubt it would be better than Covenant!

Daedalic have made some good games, like Pillars of the Earth and Deponia.

But its mostly point-and-click adventures it seems, so this might have been a bit beyond their scope.

Microsoft don't care about losing some CoD sales due to ditching Playstation. They are playing the long game and they want to own the biggest franchises to force users into their ecosystem/subscriptions long-term.

Same as Saints Row and Forspoken, I might give it a chance when its $5 or so.

There were some promising games shown, but it was mostly multiplatform stuff that might as well have been on the Geoff Keighley Parade.

This was supposed to be Playstation 5 and PSVR2's big moment and in that respect it failed.

One could ask what the hell is going on with most of Sony's other studios too. Very little was revealed at that showcase. I'm starting to fear some projects are in trouble (development hell) or have been scrapped altogether.

I liked how you refer to yourself as "we" instead of "I".

Makes it feel like Smeagol/Gollum wrote the review and wasn't too pleased about it!

Despite some promising looking games (RE4VR, DD2, Phantom Blade etc) that was pretty disappointing overall.

XBOX has a real chance to shine now and same with Meta for VR.

@NEStalgia Like a group of people solving a normal puzzle on a table?

Or maybe its a PvP mode, where you stomp your opponents 3D puzzle and hide their pieces while giving them the finger.

Yeah I'm looking forward to it.

I hope Sony will show they are committed to PSVR2, by making all or most of the bigger games (like Spider Man 2) fully playable in VR.

I wonder if Sony upcoming live service games will have a simultaneous PC release. It makes sense getting as many players into those as possible, as if they're not a roaring success they can be abandoned within a year or so.

@djlard He had a beard in all of them, albeit a smaller goatee. But yeah I kinda agree that was a better look on him, but he is supposed to look now older after all.

@djlard You can see what that looks like on the guys Twitter actually, and let's say... I hope they don't follow your recommendation!

@rjejr Yeah I never saw the point in this... is PushSquare running out of article space? Maybe they have to delete an old article every time they make a new one?

I'm not asking much, but give me sequels to Tokyo Jungle, M.A.G., Soul Sacrifice, Wipeout, Blood + Truth, Persistence, Motor Storm, Astro Bot Rescue Mission and Siren, all including full VR compatibility, as well as fully VR functional versions of Resistance 1-3, Killzone 2+3, Returnal and Demon's Souls, and in return I'll consider getting a PS5 and PSVR2 soon.

There was a time when I yearned to see the First Law series by Joe Abercrombie made into a TV show, but The Rings of Power and The Wheel of Time series have promptly cured me of any such foolish notions.

Then let me play as his nemesis... the BEES!

As expected, since they've had some economic troubles for a while with some big games failing and others languishing in development hell for years on end.

So they turn yet again to the safety of Far Cry and AC. Shocking no one.

Oh man I remember the last writers strike. The show Heroes became an unwatchable mess in season 2 with the lack of writers.

They better put their shows on wait if they don't want to destroy them like that.

That's a bad decision. It's difficult to go back to flatscreen racing once you have experienced the true glory of racing in VR.

Nah, they're gonna make the same mistakes again.

Which is why I think now would be the perfect time for Sony to announce M.A.G.2 for PS5 + PC.

@Titntin What games made you feel ill? You should probably start out with games where you don't move around too much, and then get used to that before getting into games that require more "VR legs".

Jim and Phil should just handle this like men: musket duel at dawn.

Rain World is amazing. It's not for gamers who get easily dismayed by failing though, you will die over and over!

@themightyant Sounds like the project has just grown in scope since it was revealed, from a bite-sized expansion to a full game.

It would seem Pachinko wasn't all that profitable during the Pandemic, so now they want to return home entertainment yet again.

@Khayl Fair Dinkum!

@OrtadragoonX I'm not from Australia but I lived there a few years, as well as in the Southern US actually!

The Huntsman spiders in my room were scary enough, but me and some friends discovered some Redbacks under the folding chairs we were sitting in by the pool! Did not sit in those again.

Got too big of a backlog to bother with any subscriptions!

But if I'd have to chose between GP and Plus - Gamepass easily wins by regularly having fresher, newer titles that I haven't already played.

Personally I can't say I enjoyed Pixel Ripped 1989 that much.

Although the game-within-a-game stuff is neat, I found the mini games themselves to be pretty boring and uninspired takes on games from that era.

If you need something like this in a videogame, you should stay far far far away from Australia - take my word for it!

What's it gonna take to make these guys see the light and release their games for VR? Mechanics-wise with the revolver and handling of objects this would be perfect for VR - not to mention how much scarier it would be!

What's the point of XBOX if they themselves don't even feel they can create anything worthwhile?

Sounds like they have no vision apart from buying up popular ip's and trying to be Gaming Netflix.

I think this has the potential to be really immersive if done right.

Press X to Fornicate

Nice! Put it on my wishlist.

The more I read about this megacorp acquisition tale, the more I think it needs to be turned into a comedy TV-series featuring Harvel Keitel as Jim Ryan and Nathan Fillion as Phil Spencer.

I don't hate Live Service game on principle (a game like Apex Legends can provide hours of fun with friends) but I'll avoid the typical FOMO mechanics... you're really just wasting hours to earn some worthless in-game trinket at that point.
