I plan to finish dead space remake. After that I want to replay astrobot with my daughter. In my own time Resident evil 4 remake and will buy Hogwarts legacy as it’s on sale.
The game looks stunning! Btw, what’s wrong with the character design? Quote from article“ The only thing we’re not overly keen on are the cookie cutter character designs“
@nessisonett There comes the defence force. I do not play games for sexualised protagonists but I will say that I rather look at Elana Fisher than this girl (or Ellie). Maybe you should respect people’s preferences?
@Fiendish-Beaver @IslandLogic Or we do not care? Microsoft a far bigger company could buy Activision blizzard and only had to spinoff hosting to Ubisoft. Do you except the same scrutiny with Sony compared to Microsoft (AB)? I think people who moan about Monopoly need to have a good look at Disney and Microsoft (when American companies do this they get a free pass)
@DarthCvrle66 Maybe learn what Microsoft does in other sectors? They want a near monopoly in every business they get into so that sweet SaaS subscription prices (recurring revenue) can increase significantly. This has occurred in hosting but also operating systems (with hosting you can only choose Microsoft, Amazon or some Chinese party forgot what the name is)
@carlos82 @UnlimitedSevens as Carlos said almost no reprojection in GT7. It also feels to me it’s running at a much higher framerate(much smoother), as when I slipped in a corner i did not notice it that much (with PS5 you could get nauseous).
With Resident evil village 4 effects like water but also the overall image is less noisy (sharper).
@ThatOneSneak I do understand why Microsoft wants to purchase another company. It’s a buy and build strategy and it’s normal for companies with a SaaS mode (software as a service). I think MS wants to diversify their portfolio because it’s western developers.
I hope this goes through in order to see the meltdown of Xbox fans (mainly the usual suspects on Purexbox who become financial experts when it comes to Sony) who gave millions of reasons why the AB acquisition of Microsoft was good for the industry.
@MeanBeanEgg This! The usual suspects on purexbox will now say that Sony does not have sufficient funds or that exclusives don’t sell as reason for Sony not buying this company, whilst celebrating when Microsoft does an acquisition.
Smart move Sony, Lets borrow Guerillas engine for a game that releases on Xbox. I never bought the game as the gameplay just seem boring to me (so maybe it’s also part my fault haha).
I voted Astrobot were possible 😊 especially sound design is out of this world!!! Levels like retro rampage illustrate this so much (like punching LEGO)
The first game was fantastic. Forbidden west was pretty but the story was just bland. It does not also help that Aloy is always a very grumpy character (resulting in me disliking the character). After the second game I was done with Horizon as a franchise (also going from one AI as world ending event to another AI going rogue… )
jin’s story was over after iki. The only thing I want is to still have hotsprings in this game. I want equality in seeing female butt this time (after looking at Jin’s butt for so many times).
@Lavishturtle Do you think Sony cares about you calling them out for their incompetence? I really wonder why people from the pc masterrace are on a PlayStation website
@thefourfoldroot1 Agree, first they beg for every game to launch on PC (look at the amount of Bloodborne portbegging), but when there are strings attached (PSN login) the crying begins.
Astrobot, playing the last challenge before getting the platinum trophy. After that I think I will start up my Switch. Never finished Mario oddysey and bowsers fury but I’m now fully into platforming.
Also still have persona 5 Royal that is still to be opened
@get2sammyb Holy sh*t! If I were Sony I would fire Hermen Hulst. If I were Sony I would create more teams like Asobi as Nintendo also has small teams and have hit after hit. These bloated game studios are not viable it seems
EDIT: as a CPA (now consultant in M&A) this would be the most easily identified impairment ever 🤭
10 for me easy! I was playing deaths door (which is amazing.. do you guys know similar type games?) but this brings me back to the good old days of platformers

Re: Black Myth: Wukong, Elden Ring DLC in The Game Awards' Fan Vote Final
Would Elden ring still be as popular when Sony acquires From Soft .
Re: Round Up: Indiana Jones Reviews Are Live, Mostly Very Strong
I think that the lower scoring reviews expected a wolvenstein type game (shooting nazis) instead of typical Indy game

Other games I did not play yet.
Re: Talking Point: What Do You Think of the PS5 Pro, Three Weeks Later?
Love it, especially RE4 on PSVR2 which is a lot sharper now (same for GT7)
Re: Kadokawa Confirms Sony Acquisition Interest
@anoyonmus interesting? I got in an argument with him resulting in almost getting perma banned.
Re: Kadokawa Confirms Sony Acquisition Interest
@Friendly ofcourse you do (as someone who mainly comments on Purexbox it’s the stance I would expect).

Re: Kadokawa Confirms Sony Acquisition Interest
@K1LLEGAL You mean the time that they purchased Bethesda and then Activision blizzard for $70 billion dollars? Really strange when Xbox fans ask for more after one of the largest acquisitions ever (7th on this list https://mnacommunity.com/insights/the-largest-mergers-and-acquisitions-in-history/)

Re: PS5's Ghost of Yotei Triggers Social Media, Ex-Sony Exec Says 'If You Don't Like It, Don't Buy It'
@Ludacritz Indeed, bring on the hotsprings. I don’t understand people opposing to playing a female lead (better to look at imo)

Gruff white male you mean? Yeah, it also goes the other way around.

Re: Poll: What Did You Think of Sony's State of Play for September 2024?
For me:
1. Astrobot DLC
2. Soul reaver remaster
3. Ghost of hotsprings 🤭
Re: Astro Bot's Free DLC Adds Speedrun Levels, New VIP Bots in Fall 2024
Really looking forward to this. 1 trophy till platinum (last level of the golden statue)

Re: State of Play Confirmed for Tomorrow, 20+ PS5, PSVR2 Games Included
Sony announces that Hermen Hulst is fired and decreases PlayStation Pro price to €599 😌 (a man can dream)
Edit: Totally forgot to include Bloodborne remaster or a sequel
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 547
Astrobot, playing the last challenge before getting the platinum trophy. After that I think I will start up my Switch. Never finished Mario oddysey and bowsers fury but I’m now fully into platforming.
Also still have persona 5 Royal that is still to be opened

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 546
Astrobot and maybe some GT7 (who am I kidding I think I will play more Astro)
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Astro Bot?
10 for me easy! I was playing deaths door (which is amazing.. do you guys know similar type games?) but this brings me back to the good old days of platformers
Re: State of Play Rumoured for This Month As Sony Looks Set to Skip PS Showcase in 2024
@Ralizah That’s why we need more games like astrobot 🙂
Re: State of Play Rumoured for This Month As Sony Looks Set to Skip PS Showcase in 2024
Hermen Hulst has such a punchable face… I really despise him as a fellow Dutchy. I really dislike the moment he took over with Ryan
Re: Japan Sales Charts: Astro Bot Barely Registers at Retail, PS5 Numbers Plummet After Price Hike
@Wazeddie22 It has no underage girls in it (or it’s not Nintendo).
Re: Japan Sales Charts: Astro Bot Barely Registers at Retail, PS5 Numbers Plummet After Price Hike

Re: Despite Price Point, Analyst Firm Expects PS5 Pro to Sell Like PS4 Pro
@ButterySmooth30FPS I think I’m part of that group. Getting a shinier GT7 is all I need!
Re: All PS5 Pro Compatible Games
@GamingFan4Lyf I guess 🥲
Re: All PS5 Pro Compatible Games
I’m considering buying it purely for GT7 and demon souls 😊
Re: All PS5 Pro Compatible Games
@GamingFan4Lyf Just read that GT7 is getting a 8k mode and a 4K/RT mode
Re: Don't Worry, You Can Add an Ultra HD Disc Drive to PS5 Pro

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 545
I’m on holiday with the wife and kids, but when we go back home I will be playing astrobot
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Astro Bot?
Not playing it but it’s installed on my PS5 (currently on holiday with the wife and kids 😊)
Re: Concord (PS5) - Live Service Debut Beats the Hate with Stellar Presentation and Good Gameplay
@Northern_munkey Really? I always thought multiplayer games were behind PS Plus. Thanks for the information. Guess i will be playing Destiny then!!
Re: Concord (PS5) - Live Service Debut Beats the Hate with Stellar Presentation and Good Gameplay
@get2sammyb I think the best solution are single players like uncharted with a multiplayer included.
