Wow, that's a popular coaster.

I never understood this particular craze. They're so ugly with the big black eyes, and look nothing like the characters they're supposed to represent.

So like, are Sony going to make some exclusives for the PS5 or...

If this had been a proper couch gaming release, and not free-to-play, I'd have probably bought it.

If it's free, I'll be all over it!

@thefourfoldroot1 How much are you wanting off the price? I think it's been on sale in Europe anyway, at least 3 times.

What's the point in not showing gameplay? It's probably a cool game, but many people won't bother to take the extra step to actively seek out gameplay footage.

EDIT: Had a look at some gameplay footage. Looks ace! I'll definitely keep an eye on this.

Looks awesome to me! Level up a squad of cards, making the GAME more fun to play? Brilliant. I'm glad RGG studio still know what games are, and how to make them fun to play.

@EVIL-C I'm at least interested in Resi 4 because it looks to be doing a lot of new stuff. It's also an older game in the first place. When a remake is basically the same game again though, I don't see the point.

@EVIL-C @AdamNovice Okay, fair.
£70 remasters and remakes with shinier graphics. Wow. What a generation...

£70 remasters. Wow. What an exciting generation...

Makes sense. The original game was a great story with crap gameplay. Making it purely a narrative only plays to its strengths.

@somnambulance @Ralizah I'm glad you two enjoyed NSMBU. For me, it was completely unmemorable and boring. Couldn't tell you about a single level other than the one with the Van Gogh background. Every NSMB game just fuses together in my head; they're all the same. Loved DK: Tropical Freeze on the other hand. And the 2D Raymans were great platformers.

@Octane I'll never understand it. The 2D "new" Marios are so average and copy-paste.

Well, some games that justify the console's existence will be a good start.

Well Sony always release revisions of their consoles, so this makes sense.

So uhh, what's the incentive to actually buy a PS5 these days? Genuinely curious.

How's the PS4 version play these days?

@PegasusActual93 It's because of differing refresh rates on CRT TVs, when they were first introduced, due to differences between AC frequency in NA/JP and EU. You can read about the AC differences here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_frequency.

Original TVs were very sensitive to interference, even from their own power supply ripple, so running the refresh rate at the same Hz would reduce this interference (60Hz for N/JPA, 50Hz for EU). You can check out more about that here, in the "Televisions" section: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refresh_rate.

@Orpheus79V @LordAinsley @NateGoesLive Yeah, all 3 have two separate English dubs. Being from the UK, I grew up with the PAL dubs, so I'm biased towards them. Gotta love the James Bond villian voice that Specter had in the first game!

I'll stick with 50Hz on Ape Escape for the UK voice acting, thanks.

Yay! I really loved the game, so new playable characters and stuff is a wonderful bonus!

Sounds completely idiotic that you can't turn that stuff off on PS5.

Sue them for false advertising. If it truly was a mistake then have some actual quality control and check the product's box before releasing it.

If it's officially endorsed by Sony, it shouldn't need a kickstarter.

Disappointing, but not surprising.

Amazing that companies are now actively advertising the fact that they're cutting bits out to charge you extra. Forget Sony's £70, this is £90 for the full game!

40gb?! There's update patches, and there's adding in huge chunks of missing game. This was clearly nowhere near finished when being manufactured.

I'd say it's a bit premature to claim that the whole game is definitely better off the back of a 30 min demo. It's certainly different, but different isn't always better. The enemies grabbing you every few seconds looks more annoying than fun, for example. I see they're doing a darker atmosphere too, which will certainly distinguish it from the original, but isn't necessarily going to be "better". If you want to play a grittier version of Resi 4, I guess this is the game for you.

Edit: I'd like to ask, does it have gyro aiming? I played the wii version of the original, so if it's sticks only, that would be a downgrade.

@Juanalf No, I've never given a toss about frame rates. I mean, yeah, I can see the difference between 60 fps and 30 fps. 60 fps is definitely nicer on the eye, but as long as it isn't stuttering around wildy, I don't see a problem with a lower frame rate. I've survived with lower until now and most of my favourite games of all time don't run at 60 fps. I'm much more interested in the story, gameplay, music, art, world, fun factor, etc. Basing my purchases on the frame rate as the number one deciding factor makes no sense to me.

So? Why has 60 fps randomly been decided as the standard?

Atlus are an anti-consumer company anyway. I stopped buying their games, so I won't miss 'em.

Does the game have gyroscope aiming on consoles?

Didn't even realise there was so much real money wrapped up in digital pictures in a game. Don't see the appeal myself.

Case by case makes perfect sense. If a game can also run satisfactorily on PS4, release it on both consoles. If it can't, it's a PS5 exclusive. Simples.

Maybe Sony should start charging for online so they can keep the servers up?

...wait.

That's fine. It's not as if the PSVR games will suddenly become unplayable when PSVR2 launches.

Good news. I didn't buy Resident Village, precisely because I was waiting for the inevitable gold edition. So I'll definitely be getting it now. However, locking the third-person mode behind DLC is a poor show, I feel.

Hahahahahahaha no. Atlus can do one.

@WadeIsInsane It's just because you already have the M rating. We only go up to 18 because that's enough. At 18, you're an adult. There's no need for another rating above that.

EDIT: Upon re-reading your comment, I didn't realise M was a suggestion, and that people younger can see/play stuff with adult permission. I guess the AO rating makes more sense now. The PEGI ratings are legally binding here.

Never understood the AO in North America rating when "Mature" already exists. Makes no sense.

You mean "installation". " Install" is a verb.

'Sony argues the Call of Duty series "influences [a] users' console choice" and wouldn't be "able to rival it" with a game of its own.'

So Sony can't be bothered to try and rival it? Is that right? When Nintendo made an exclusive deal with Capcom to get Final Fight on the SNES, Sega made their own, Streets of Rage for the Mega Drive, to compete. Sony have Killzone and could make other shooters if they wanted to. Are they admitting their games aren't good enough if they "can't compete" with CoD?

Looks like a laugh! Running around as Sonic in an open world should be a ton of fun!

Sounds really promising. I can't wait!

What's the point in not showing gameplay? Cinematics are great and all, but tell us nothing about the game.

I've been hoping for a retail release like the first one got.

Not surpising when many people here seem more obsessed with getting trophies than enjoying the games they buy.

It's Atlus' greed that made me not buy Persona 5 in the first place. And now I've stopped buying any Atlus' games because of it.

How very Atlus. They're such a greedy company. Royal not letting original owners upgrade AND launching with more day-one DLC was bad enough...
