People are weird, and gamers even more so at times. Trailer looked rad, can’t wait to see more.

Anyone that doesn’t like it is welcome to go play any of the thousands of other games in development without brandishing their prejudices like a peacock that’s packing faeces in place of feathers.

I don’t really have any intention of picking up Mortal Kombat but I love finding out what they’ve added and watching the videos. Absolutely brilliant.

Best month for me for a little while, can’t remember the last time I wanted to play all three games!

Thought it was OK. The claymation horror thing and Ghost of Yotei were nice surprises, and I'm super excited that Soul Reaver is back. Can't say the rest got my pulse racing though.

Oh god, I'm going to want one of these and then get extremely annoyed when I'm not fast enough to grab one before they sell out.

Looks promising so far! Netflix have generally been on point with their animated series (Castlevania being a prime example) so I'm cautiously optimistic.

@Northern_munkey yeah I’d agree with that, very well put.

My only concern is what it potentially means for PS6, admittedly a fair ways down the road - will we be returning to a base level that console gamers are more accustomed to, or are Sony going to push for the best tech they can at this new price point and hope the PS5 Pro has taken the shock of that price tag away? Time will tell but it makes me wonder if that might be a bad omen for more casual fans.

I dunno, I feel like folks are being a little harsh. Most live service games have significant issues when they launch. Bungie have been going through tough times both financially and reputationally, so honestly it must be a nightmare for whoever's job it is to keep the lights on (server wise, I mean) when the company's resources are probably being stretched as thinly as they can possibly get away with.

It's one day into the launch, folks just need to chill a bit and let the thing settle rather than branding everyone at the developer a moron. It's so infantile.

Anyways, not trying to 100% absolve them of blame or anything and not even sure why I care exactly - haven't played Destiny in a long, long time. Just a bit sick of all the negativity in games.

Yay for more Astro Bot! Other than that, I wasn't impressed in all honesty. With the Elden Ring DLC on the way I just can't get particularly excited for other Soulslikes.

Astro Bot looks fantastic, very excited for that. Not much else to get me interested though tbh.

@Almost_Ghostly Im not really a fan of games that use “jiggle physics” to excite a bunch of nerds. I could maybe ignore it but the fact that said manbabies are arguing with each other over the internet about it makes it even less appealing. That’s the shame - a good game that would have been every bit as good without all of this going on, which I don’t want to be associated with. And no, it’s not my loss - there’s literally too many excellent games out there to play and this one doesn’t make the grade because of those reasons. I’m not the one missing out.

Aaaaand this kind of discourse is why I will sadly be avoiding an otherwise seemingly excellent game. Just a big “nah”. Shame. Either way, hope those who pick up the game enjoy it and those who feel the need to actually petition developers over this manage to find something better to do with their time.

Great news. Picking this up.

It sounds like it’s great fun mechanically but I get the feeling not to expect much from the story, which is a bit of a shame. More likely I’ll pick up something else. Still, know how long people have been waiting for this and hope they have fun with it!

Absolutely adore FromSoft for exactly this kind of stuff. Hook it to my veins.

Haha, fantastic stuff. Can’t wait to play this and now I will be taking extra care to admire the puddles and appreciate the extra work that went in!

@Papa_Godzilla Then you could have expressed it instead of being purely condescending. Now what - exactly - do you mean by a plan b?

@Papa_Godzilla having sympathy for people working hard to entertain millions and provide for their families wouldn’t go amiss. But no, you go and dump on their work, no worries. Also Mediatonic worked on more than just Fall Guys.

Loved both of the other games and just know I’m gonna love this as well.

Phenomenal trailer. So many iconic moments recreated. Very excited for this now!

Final Fantasy and Spider-Man look great and all (and yay for Tales of Arise DLC!), but in terms of sheer announcements/surprises it was pretty low key.

So boring. Xbox still has PlayStation beat when it comes to this stuff.

I don’t normally dunk on these too much, but it’s definitely a weaker month and the news of the price rise is very poorly timed. Hopefully next month will pick it up again. Again shows how much comparative value game pass presents.

Ok that looks awesome!

@cburg Still the best looking game on PS5 in my books, nothing has impressed me so much since.

Echoing what a lot of others said, I'd have gladly paid for a standalone PS5 version of this. Great little game and my kid is loving it. Tried browsing for some other stuff in Dreams but didn't find anything particularly compelling at a first glance - will try to get back to it for a deeper look eventually but I can see how it could be a drawback for the game as a platform. Also a bit annoying to have to go through a Dreams tutorial before I could access Tren.

Every now and then I imagine a Bluepoint remake of this on the level of their Demon Souls port. Sigh.

Would be nice to have this natively - I don't use the app much and always forget about these.

I would have been super excited for Dreams if it wasn't literally about to be canned. I'll still download it and have a casual browse but it's disappointing that the game isn't being continued properly on PS5.

Such a good game. Loved every minute of it and very tempted to pick it up again.

TMNT, Inscryption and Redout 2 are all games I’ve been wanting to check out so very happy! Might get Paw Patrol for the kids too.

I thought it was OK. Too many dull shooty AAA games (yawn) and the inevitably rubbish GT movie but there was still some nice stuff in there. Phantom Blade 0, Spider-Man, Final Fantasy XVI and Alan Wake 2 were the highlights from the AAA side for me and I’m really excited for the indie titles they showed. The streaming handheld and headphones look good too, interested in maybe picking those up.

But yeah, I guess the heady heights of Sony’s E3 shows a few years back are gone for good and that is disappointing for sure.

I was gifted a code for the new expansion so I thought I’d give it a go after not really playing since Destiny 1. I’m enjoying it - there’s fun to be had for sure. But the story is poorly acted nonsense for the most part, and it’s ridiculously unfriendly to new users. Also visually it’s really showing it’s age. When I heard the new expansion was set in a neon lit city I thought it sounded cool but it looks so dull and the citizens are just low detail holograms for some arbitrary and barely plausible reason. Despite all that I’m finding it enjoyable and I’ll probably play for the rest of the season, but have to admit I’d definitely be up for a sequel that simplifies the story and ups the production values.

Shame we can’t just get a AAA action adventure game with the visual style of Arcane. That would be really exciting.

@tameshiyaku 100% this.

If the plot is good enough then I think I’m going to really enjoy this, but I think I’ll be waiting to see what the reviews are like first. Voice acting, music and art seem on point though so fingers crossed!

Looks gaudy and tacky, IMO. Not a fan but always nice to see them trying new types of merch!

I think the series deserves a part 3, personally. But who knows.

Sounds like a clever feature and totally makes sense for a revised core model. Happy enough with my current version though, so I’ll be hanging on for the inevitable Pro version, as I’m sure most others on here will be.

Hmm, not sure about this one.

Wow. Not sure what else to say other tuan this is day one for me. Sign me up.

Bit torn on this. I enjoyed elements of the main game and kinda wished there was a more satisfying ending, but I found it was way overhyped in the reviews as others have said here. Will wait and see but with so many other things out there to play, I’m not sure.

Nope, looks like another underwhelming 3D Sonic game to me.

Really hope Astro Bot and Rez get ported over.

Wasn't sure yesterday but after thinking about it I'm tempted to go for it - missed out on VR last gen and I want to see what all the fuss is about. If I don't enjoy it I expect I'll easily be able to get the money back as they're bound to be in short supply.

If it had backwards compatibility I'd be pre-ordering for sure, but at this price and the current lineup I'll probably wait it out for a year or so.

Bit meh for me personally, but with God of War on the horizon I can’t say I’m too bothered!

Disappointing news, I’ll be holding off for now and hoping for an update maybe. Or getting it on PC.

Quite a few I'm interested in there, happy days!

Hot Wheels is great, found it got repetitive after a while but enjoyed the time I spent with it. Haven’t tried Superhot so looking forward to that but can’t say I’m too fussed about Injustice. Solid month!
