@Nightcrawler71 Same, but I did play Spider-Man on PS4. I think Spider-Man 2 will be impressive though since they have lots of experience with the franchise. And Wolverine ... too far away but looking forward to that one. I'm going to call my PS5, my Insomniac 1
I was a Ninty fan before I saw the first GT on PSX. I even bought Japanese mags for the pictures back in the day, before ending buying that PSX, just to be able to play GT. The second game had 2 discs and one disc had a special rubber smell on it Let's hope for no further delays Polyphony is known for.
@Widey85 I'm sure they will nail it, like with Spider-Man. Don't know about open world for this one but who knows. If they pull this off they need to make a Superman game (don't know if the DC universe is a problem). Rocksteady is also a good candidate for a Superman game (there are rumors but WB rejected the first pitch I heard) It's difficult to make because he's too powerful. I hope to see this one day. Have bad memories of Superman 64 But we don't know how long Wolverine is in development. Sony approved it already so some work must be done in the early stages. 2023/2024?
@pushL7 Probably only the free dlc otherwise people will never pay for a future Amplified Edition, seasons or Ultimate Edition again. Well, I wouldn’t … But I’m certain you could get it for a small price. Dirt 5 is good game imo
@naruball well, that's what's wrong with it. I like Suckerpunch and the game a lot. There are good vibes between players and devs, it's like Sony wants to ruin that vibe imho
"we see fans around the world are enjoying playing our game, and sometimes I feel like I have to knock myself on the head and ask if this is real. It's fantastic, and we're so appreciative of all the support. It was just so amazing that this could happen in 2020."
But let us charge those loyal fans an extra 10-nner to be able to use their PS5 features.
There's a little banner on the right in the Apple TV+ app on PS5. Also needs a working CC. I implemented it on PC via Icloud. + the app gets an update on PS5. Hope this helps! Also reboot your PS5!
@FatalBubbles Lol. I'm in the 2nd act of Bloodroots and sometimes I think, this is impossible, but I carry on, and it becomes possible because you're getting the mecanics and patterns. There's a learning curve but once you start mastering it, it's starting to be more fun. I do hope it clicks for/with you after a while because collecting dust on games you bought is not a good thing
@FatalBubbles Haven't started it up yet (installed it) but I loved previous Housemarque games, Nex Machina, Super Stardust series, Geometry Wars series & Resogun.
It's so addicting, you will die several times but when you get it right it's so rewarding. It is on Game Pass (but also on PS4/Switch - $€15-20) so I thought, lets try this since friends recommended it to me. I was pleasantly surprised!
@themightyant Austin Wintory music score made me buy the game in the first place. Now playing Bloodroots which is awesome imho. Bought Brothers: a Tale of two Sons (also on PSPlus) & Forgotten Anne myself
I got mine both vertical for the first time, partially hidden behind the TV, only the drives are visible. Not a big deal but people seem to think the higher ups need to know how to correctly set their console under the TV.
@theheadofabroom Got the PC version myself. Free upgrade is a good service but surprising since it's an older game. But it sold very well. + inspired by The Witcher series on Netflix (maybe sponsored DLC?)
@Xenomorph_79 I don't believe that for a second. The quality will be the same, DLC? Well, that's possible but that same DLC could come to PS. Look at Doom Eternal. Sequel? Yeah, probably MS exclusive. Tbh, not all games need a sequel, I'd rather see new IP.
PS4 vs XboxOne era is gone! Snap out of it! That dominance is over. It will be more a PS3/X360 kind of era which is better for us gamers. And remember ... nobody cares about hardware sales since there isn't enough money to be made (unless you're a scalper). Software is the key!
@TheCollector316 I think the point is that a lot of devs give you a free PS5 upgrade, so if they can do it why can't everybody (at least games that have sold well). I'm very grateful for my free PS5 Doom Eternal upgrade. It's a service and maybe keeps people invested in your future games.
GoT DLC: I don't mind paying for it but the PS5 upgrade could have been part of the service. It would give a better narrative. DLC still can hold its full asking price.
@Dan_ozzzy189 Astro's Playroom is typically made with the Dual Sense in mind (showcase). Sackboy has varied and smart levels which felt fresh to me and even liked replaying them (clicked for me). What I didn't expect was the good soundtrack/gameplay. But I know the feeling, if something doesn't click with you in a game it can get difficult to stick with it. Try not to give up on that unless you don't really like the whole concept ofcourse.
@thefourfoldroot Did the same but on a sale I took the plunge and didn't regret it one bit. If you like Astro's Playroom than I would recommend this game. Sony should give some demo's of PS5 games though
I'm giving it an 9 out 10. Although I wanted to give an 8,5 but the game blew me away on the big LG screen and it's not that short if you collect stuff. The rifts were awesome but the R&C characters overall weren't better than previous games and if you have to pay it full price, that's gonna be a negative. Off-topic: Hope to see a free PS5 upgrade soon & maybe they are going to do it like Spider-man. A Remastered Edtion + short DLC Ghost of Ikishima game for a fair price.
As a multiplatform gamer it was ok. Xbox has a good future ahead (FH5, Atomic Heart, ...). Even NS has some interesting games with Wario, Super Monkey Ball, Advance Wars, BotW2 and Metroid Dread. Considering we're still in a pandemic ... PS is not done either ...
Finished the game but this is good of EA or maybe Respawn Entertainment had a say in it like no MTX? Also like the new game+ adding, should be a standard overall. PS4 save data transfer was easy too.
Was looking forward to a big new PS5 Gran Turismo with features/AI/insane weather stuff ... not possible on my PS4. Now, we do get a GT that must be playable on a 7+ years old system. I understand why but what's the point of buying a PS5 with an extraordinary SSD? I want new game experiences! Thanks Insomniac, for making Rift Apart!

Re: Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut Is Superb, But Sony Shouldn't Be Charging Extra for PS5 Upgrade
@The_Moose
-All the ones that did charge extra will NOT be forgotten (thinking twice before buying their game on day one anymore)
-All the ones who gave it as a service will NOT be forgotten (looking out for their new games)
Re: Rumour: Sony Targeting AAA Titles for Stunning Next-Gen PS5 VR Headset

Re: PS Store Summer Sale Discounts So Many Big PS5, PS4 Games
@FatalBubbles Yeah, I hear that a lot I thought they were implementing another save-system to the game?
https://gamingroute.com/housemarque-says-that-they-have-not-figured-out-how-to-implement-saves-in-returnal/
It was in the works but they have trouble doing it. I hope it won't bother me when I start playing it.

Re: Feature: What Are Your Most Anticipated PS5, PS4 Games for the Rest of 2021?
Going for PS5 console exclusives:
GoT Add-on for sure
Went for these 3:
1. Kena: Bridge of Spirits
2. SIFU
3. Horizon Forbidden West
Interesting: Stray (timed exclusive?), Little Devil Inside (why not on the list?), Atomic Heart, Hoa
Like the new IP's

Re: Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart Patch 1.002 Adds 40FPS Mode for 120Hz TVs
@Dan_ozzzy189 Astro's Playroom is typically made with the Dual Sense in mind (showcase). Sackboy has varied and smart levels which felt fresh to me and even liked replaying them (clicked for me).
