@Clemerek Had the same thought haha!

But yeah this was awesome, and very wholesome. Loving the marketing and stuff for this game so far. The old school spidey pointing bit towards the end was hilarious. Insomniac just get Spider-Man, they've nailed the tone so perfectly.

@deathaxe wouldn’t that be something? I feel like we probably would have seen it already if that was the case but either way, that would be so cool.

I wonder what the PS5's first PS Plus games will be? I remember Resogun being a great bonus when starting up with PS4 back in the day so it'll be interesting to see what the equivalent is.

@Kidfried Yeah I was a bit unsure about the looks at first too but it's grown on me. Do wish the square/triangle/circle/x buttons kept their colour scheme as well rather than being all monotone, but oh well. Like you say it's what it can do that gets me excited. One of my biggest disappointments with the Switch has been that so few developers have really used the HD rumble so I'm hoping that haptics really take off with PS5.

@Medic_Alert Yeah, absolutely. I love the look of the new Shock Blue Xbox controller, but it is a shame that there's nothing really new there.

Also much prefer the look of the Series S, personally. I agree it's all very samey so far. Good, don't get me wrong - and exceptional value with Game Pass - but still samey. There's games down the line I'm excited for like Fable and Hellblade, so I expect that eventually I'll pick up a Series S.

But at launch, there's not much to get my blood pumping.

New controllers can be such an exciting thing to get hold of. Remember being so excited when I finally got to hold the Dreamcast controllers, Wiimotes and Joy Con for the first time in particular. Really looking forward to DualSense, the haptic feedback and adaptive triggers together just seem like such a cool new change, can't wait to try it out with Astro Bot particularly.

@fluggy Agreed. I fully expect a new app to launch, to be honest. That's my hunch anyway.

As for the store stuff, I wish people would bear in mind that the people working on this stuff aren't idiots...the amount of work, thought and preparation that goes into something like this is no small matter. There's a lot of reasons for making the choices they have and most web designers would say the same.

This is going to be a priority game for me when my PS5 arrives. Can't wait.

Yikes. Every now and then I get tempted to pick up something like NBA2K as I used to be a basketball fan when I was younger, but ugh - nothankyou.gif.

10/10, finally got a full house!

Still tempted to pick up Avengers when it's much cheaper just to go through the singleplayer campaign. It's a tough one and I feel for them, because the idea of a live service Avengers game is actually pretty cool. But the finished product just didn't quite hit the right notes, and the poor technical performance of the beta on my base PS4 didn't help.

Kudos to the person playing Dreamcast

Love the way the soundtrack incorporates hip hop elements. Really excited to finally play this.

Personally I'm really loving the overall speed and instant resume, but also very impressed by the hints system, speech recognition and PS Store integration. So much less wasted time as a result of these improvements!

@Brutal The grammar and overall layout on that image is a very suspect, doesn't look genuine to me. Good luck though.

Looks very slick, and a natural evolution of the PS4 UI which I already really liked. It'll be interesting to see how much of an effect themes have on the UI though as there seems to be a little less room for customization, maybe.

@skaarj217 Probably not...? Not everything is for everyone.

OK this game just keeps getting better and better. The cat is fantastic but also just wow, the game looks stunning. The quality of the lighting and that transition from the warehouse back to the open world are sooo nice. Really looking forward to it.

I expect I'll be using it a lot at first, as I've got a fairly big backlog of games to get through, and will be selling my PS4 to help fund my PS5. I'd rather play them on PS5 since I only have a base PS4 so I'm quite keen to have them running at higher specs where supported. Probably after a year or two it'll be less important to me though.

Haven't used remote play in a good while if I'm honest but good to see it continue to be updated.

Well, it's uh - definitely not for me, to put it lightly. The whole military angle is a big turnoff. It's all so bleak and colourless, too.

I'm VERY picky with my themes but there have been some great ones for PS4, my favourites have probably been the Persona 5 main protaganist theme from the JP store, Firewatch, Rez Infinite and Transistor. Looking forward to seeing what we get on PS5.

@Menchi Exactly my thoughts. If they don't announce it for N7 day then I give up!!

@JohnnyShoulder I know what you mean, but he's also been revealed in the latest batch of official screenshots so probably it would have been spoiled either way. He's likely just the opening/tutorial boss so I wouldn't worry too much. But yeah, spoiler tags are always welcome regardless.

@thejameswhogames Would be a bit weird if it wasn't, wouldn't it?

Looks immense. Really looking forward to unlocking all those costumes. That 2020 one (with the LED helmet and jacket) looks soooooo good.

@jamberino93 Both FF7R and SoR4 are well above the price I could buy them for digitally at the moment (£69 and £29 rather than £49 and £19), so don't think it's for me. Not interested in renting either, TBH.

Great deals there if there are any gaps in youtr library. I will resist though, keeping my eye out for FF7R and Streets of Rage 4 deals on the PS Store.

This now makes Fall Guys the best 3D Sonic game since SA2. It's hideous and I love it. Probably won't get it though as I got pretty bored with the game after a couple of weeks.

The one thing I will say is that the branding worked and I now want a BK for lunch more than any other cuisine on this earth.

If it was just a competition then it would seem a bit weird to have a countdown when so many other places are doing “win a PS5” promotions. So I think it’s a bit more than that, but what exactly? Who knows, not going to get drawn into getting excited! Either way we’ll see the UI soon enough.

Gave it a quick try over the weekend out of curiosity - it is a bit brazen with its influences for sure, the storyline and characters are cheesy as heck, and there are a baffling number of systems and currencies to get to grips with. But, I did enjoy it and am keen to play more of it. The world design is lovely and the combat seems like it'll get interesting with the way you combo characters. If you bounce off corny anime games then it probably won't be your cup of tea but for me it kinda added to the charm in a weird way.

The only thing that really puts me off at this early stage is that there just seems to be so much to do - looks like it might need almost MMO-like time investments to really play and enjoy. Could be wrong, just the impression I got so far.

@zupertramp There's defiitely a weird duality to it, you're right. Personally I've got a massive backlog of PS4 games I haven't played so the chance to catch up on all those while waiting for the PS5 games to get a little cheaper is a big incentive to get the console sooner rather than later. Otherwise, I'd still be getting a PS5, just probably not as soon.

Thought I was done with GG but damn that's an impressive trailer. Very tempting.

I'm actually pretty damn impressed by this lineup now. Of all those confirmed my top two are easily Demon's Souls and Spider-Man MM, but other than those I'm also really interested in Assassin's Creed, Astro Bot, Bugsnax, DMC5 (never played it first time around), Observer, Sackboy and The Pathless. That's...quite a lot! On PS4 there wasn't anything I was really excited for until Bloodborne came out.

Got a bit frustrated and bored first time round but willing to give it another shot.

Absolutely hideous. Not for me at all.

I can see lots of people 3D printing their own panels at this rate - should be interesting. I never pick up limited consoles so glad to see if I decide to have a bit of an aesthetic change I won't need to pick up an entirely new console!

As amazing as this is going to be, I'm going to hang back and get it on PS5. That lobster summon move will never get old to me. NEVER.

I'll be waiting for a sale but really excited to give it a try at some point! Looks brilliant.

To the surprise of very few, I suspect!

I'd love to play this in VR for sure. Looks spectacular.

If Vampyr had reviewed better I'd be all over that, but alas it seems like a bit of a stinker so another quiet month for me.

As much as I want to see the UI and stuff, I could understand it if we were at least getting more info on other stuff, but it's a month away from launch and it all just seems so...quiet. Ah well, it'll happen eventually I guess.

Very nice! Kinda shows how desperate we are for any tiny crumb of info now though, doesn't it? C'mon Sony...

The different face is a bit strange but who cares? You barely see it anyways. Main thing is the game world looks stunning and is running perfectly. It looks brilliant and is really tempting me to double dip...

Stunning. Incredible work, captured the characters so well. Ridiculous talent on show.

So, so good. Community pizza one and the Joel / magikarp guy mashup are my faves but they’re all amazing.

Still no luck. Pre-orders have been a shambles.

I've got no interest in Football Manager whatsoever but that seems like another fairly major blunder from Sony. Really would like to see them get their act together sooner rather than later...
