Sequel

Fun fact. I only ever played 7 games of exoprimal. Won every single one. Enjoyed it but sold it very early on, didn't think it had staying power.

I've already given instructions to my progeny to play it and hold a seance to tell me what it's like

@NotSoCryptic Not to get overly political on a gaming site, but why China out of interest? It's a fantastic country with leadership far more wise and people centric than anywhere in the West. I'm hopeful they will be the model for the world.

I'd actually like to see a Russian console, maybe not as a government initiative but wouldn't mind seeing where it went.

Absolutely loved it, I'll be there on release day.

Edit: I need more Tachy in my life..

Went to add this to my steam wishlist and saw the demo. It's gorgeous, surprisingly dark. Might have to tweak the parry button but was impressed.

Sounds like the original then. I haven't played it yet, but I think time will be kind to it. Likely another cult classic.

Very high likelihood of this being my first ps5 day 1 in looong while. Won't feel as guilty scoffing it whole if I know there might be a 2nd

Did Pitchford pee in the punch? He seems a little unpopular reading these comments

That combat sounds right up my street, chewy chunky chewy

The % if people who aren't bothered about crisp rez and 60fps seem to be majority, but the minority of people who are bugged by the lack of them seem to be quite bothered. I'm in the latter camp, even holding off playing things I really want to pay. We may be a minority but I imagine we'll be quite likely to upgrade. If you're not bothered.. continue as you are.

Truly amazing. People are wtiting using it now. Musk is becoming a man for the history books.

This generation kicked off with Demon Souls that even in performance mode was one of the most beautiful games I'd ever seen. Granted the stunning art direction was doing some heavy lifting but at the time I thought "wow, we're in for a big treat if this is a launch title", and then... little has come close outside of Horizon. If anything it seems to be reversing. RT & UE5 have taken a toll, but so many games seem to struggle. At the generation start I couldn't have imagined a ps5 pro, but now it seems almost essential for me. Weird generation in general

Hoping they have been given the jumping flash license to create a new entry. In fact I'm 85% sure this is what it is..

Yes please. If this is even half as decent as it looks I'll likely buy on release.

So ray tracing is locked on ATM? This sounds like a no brainer? I'd potentially bite at locked 30fps.. but not up for variable. Was Playing a 30fps game last night and once you get past the adjustment its not the end of the world

Thought this was physical for a moment. Was getting ready to scalp as many as possible and pay off my mortgage.

Port is getting rave reviews for performance. Thinking of getting a smaller oled TV for my office so i can finally enjoy some of these pc versions.

This is a real shame. I'm ready to play but frame rates hovering between 30-45fps will just be too noticeable for me. Will definitely play this at a later date, but not feeling $70 for a 30fps action game in 2024.

Want to but holding off. Decided to replay the first one on the steam deck as I never actually finished it first time. Loving it.

That's fine. Will give me a chance to play the first 5 games

Added to my steam wishlist, looks like a deck job to me. Very nice.

This is utter madness lol. It's kind of sad though, really want to play this and I'd be day 1 if not for performance.

Well they would know I suppose. The (no) BG4 'news' had a silver lining that was infinitely more exciting imo. They are looking at something brand new and even better, likely moving away from the D&D world. I'd love to see them run completely wild and follow their creativity. They've earned it.

So they made this show but canceled the game?

This sounds amazing.. but think I'll wait till the ps5pro. Difficult wait..

Live service here we come...

I don't see what all the fuss is ab.... hang on.

Marketing tactic? Get some illicit buzz before the real drop?

40fps for 120hz tvs is a sweet spot if it can be managed. Not sure how worthwhile it is to optimism for them though. Steam deck I do 45fps a lot and its brilliant

Hmmm.... marketing drip? Anmoucement? Anyway this is great. I love ASTRO on ps5, it's the only game my son likes, but I've played it to death, I know every single asset and texture like the back of my hand. Tried to change it up with sack boy but he wasn't having any of it.. maybe this will help?

Great game. I had to Uninstall it because it was too addictive and I'm busy lol. But yes, thus is a shame. I absolutely get where the classification board is coming from, but very disruptive to change post release. Not really their fault.

I love it when you just randomly find out a dev you love has an amazing looking game brewing, somehow missed this until now. And this does look amazing. Wishlist.

Definitely looks like an N64 game. Great game play though.

Some serious spoilers being dropped in these comments

This just rubs salt in the wound. Was really hoping GTA6 would be set in 1930s Lancashire with a full George Formby soundtrack.

It's all a bit concerning really. Hope Sony can turn this around, wasn't particularly excited for the LS push but couldn't imagine they'd cancel so many games.

I really don't know to be honest. Costs are unsustainable, in danger of becoming a victim of their own success. Personally I'm fine with less big budget, no motion capture, or high end graphics etc.. but I don't think that will wash with everyone. Feel like we're at a crossroads here. Maybe bringing Knack back will fix it?

At least they've got Bungie to show for it

Can't help but feel there are management issues here. How much are they spending on games that get canceled, including TLOU which people were excited for? Then that massive Bungie purchase with not much to show for it. All seems so wasteful.

I've been loving this but haven't had time to do more than a few levels

@DeathlySW It worked! All refunded. Appreciate the tip.

Rocksteady: victims of their own success. They made such good games they got drafted into live service duty.

@DeathlySW I'll try that. Thank you!

@DeathlySW Interesting! I just got refused a discount for the game but refunded ps+.. so game is effectively useless now. Did you play the game? What was your process?

@rjejr Been playing this, different beast from yooka.. in a different league. Feels sooo good to play.

Hearing big things about this one.

I mean you can't forget or underestimate how crazy and uncertain was. Hell of a time to launch.

My ears somehow pricked and I was drawn to push square for some mystical reason. And yes PC community would go insane for Bloodborne. Lost count of the amount of steam reviews for Sony games mentioning it. But imagine a bluepoint remake like Demon Souls on ps6? Brings tears to my eyes.

@Intr1n5ic Shhhh. Don't let Sony hear you talking about the 'B' game.
