@FuriousMachine - New Eden is £24.99, it was part of the early deals offers for PS+ members.

Just wrapped up the Code Vein plat and about to start Fenyx Rising. Loved it on PS4, had no idea there was a free upgrade for PS5 until I spotted it in my library today. Looking forward to playing it all over again. Have a good weekend all!

@breakneck - I thought the same about North until the credits rolled on TLoU back on PS3. Was blown away when I saw he voiced David. I had no idea while playing through it. Stellar performance!

@QualityGeezer - Is that an ingame survey? I didn't walk a step, as soon as I had control of the character I went straight into options, no invert Y, deleted game.

No invert Y axis makes it unplayable for me. How a game releases without such a basic option in 2024 is absolutely staggering. Hopefully they patch it in.

@PigSkinsHaveNoLips - Typical yank, offensive from the off but doesn't realise the US is the largest terrorist nation on earth. Also that user name. Classless. Go back to reddit.

Code Vein, started it a few days ago and just cleared the mandatory video game ice area, think I'm about halfway through the game. Decent enough Soulslike, if you like the genre its worth a look. Have a good weekend all!

Would much prefer FH4. FH5 is alright but definitely the lesser game. Especially where DLC is concerned.

LAD Ishin! And I dug out my old purple GameCube for some Killer7 tomorrow. Have a good weekend all!

@wiiware - "I prefer getting the platinum for something like Nier Automata".

That game allowed you to buy trophies with ingame currency. I guarantee nobody has that platinum without buying at least one trophy from that vendor.

@C25CLOUD - Probably did not tank? EA would milk a desiccated cow corpse but they already gave up on this game. It tanked hard.

The game has tanked. 10 year dev cycle, hundreds of millions spent and certainly less than a million sold, with no DLC plans you know EA have zero faith. Mass Effect 5 had better sell GTA numbers to keep Bioware alive, assuming EA don't shutter them in Q2 2025.

Pure speculation on my part but I wonder if Neon Koi were working on a mobile version of Concord. Sony, or Hulst at least seemed to think the game was the second coming of the Lord so it wouldn't be a shock if there was a mobile port in the works.

Darksiders 2 PS5 version. Looks and plays really well in 4k at 60fps. Great game to revisit. Have a good weekend all!

Good grief, that reflected image on the right with RT on is absolutely abysmal. Watch Dogs Legion has better looking glass reflection RT on a Series S.

Muddy visuals? The image quality is superb even in performance mode. I guess a clean 1800p image is mud nowadays. You guys really need to stop. There isn't a single detail of what the enhancements even are ffs.

Amazing weather simulator and a stunning looker but a sub par driving game. It had no idea what it wanted to be. It tried to be simcade but didn't manage to do sim or arcade very well. The physics and vehicle handling were awful.

And fwiw I have the platinum, I spent a lot of time with DC, not hating for the sake of it.

Can't fault the presentation but as far as arcade racers go, PGR 2 and 4 did it far better many years earlier.

@PuppetMaster - That would be a question for Konami. I'm just saying that source code isn't needed to remake a game for which retail code exists.

@PuppetMaster - Source code isn't needed. BluePoint never used source for their remastered collections of Ico/SotC, MGS etc. They reverse engineered the final code.

@ED_209 - Yeah it definitely seems like a weird bug, the resume activity option on my game tile for AC Mirage has been replaced with a free trial offer from April. Highly strange!

Fantastic news. Already have it for PS3 and also have the completely broken 360 version. Beautiful game.

TLoU pt1. Still amazing. Have a good weekend all!

This will be a mess. Hotta are a sub par dev team. ToF had potential but it's pretty awful at almost everything it tries to do. Got zero faith this will turn out to be even half decent.

@Marquez - Acknowledge what privilege? Unless you somehow live in 1950's Alabama white privilege doesn't exist outside of the minds of these DEI grifters. Their version of inclusive is objectively exclusive, they are openly racist and you have bought into their grift. That my friend is white guilt, not privilege. Have a great week.

@Marquez - Does being inclusive mean actively excluding white characters? When the character designer proclaims that white people should acknowledge their privilege and work towards equality then you know there's an agenda. Where's the inclusivity there exactly?

Look at that roster. Asian woman, black woman, black non-binary, undecided robot, Hispanic manlet etc. This game was a DEI white excluding circle jerk and never inclusive. @Rols is spot on.

@Enigk - Not happening. It would cost another fortune to retool this with a F2P model and Sony really don't need the embarrassment of it tanking all over again which it would. It's a write off.

@Waluigi451 - There's zero chance Sony will try to reinvent this game. They can't risk it tanking twice. Luckily for them with it being mainly digital they won't need to buy a landfill plot. Hermen Hulst can just bury the surplus hard copies in his garden.

@Bez87 - Mobile gaming has been hitting consoles since the PS3. Did you forget about Peggle, Angry Birds, Plants vs Zombies etc?

@3Above - Its not overly difficult maybe 5 or 6/10 but it can be quite frustrating at times as Lily can die very easily and most major bosses can shred her health and kill her with one or two hits. It gets easier once you get the dodge upgrade as you can abuse i-frames. Plat took me about 30 hours, fully blind playthrough.

Just popped the Ender Lilies plat, now onto Vampire Survivors. Have a good weekend all!

@patronmacabre - Good luck on your Lingsha pulls!

@z0d15g0d - We both know you'll get the pair. DoT meta team incoming lol.

@z0d15g0d - Honestly mate I recommend both, they're the DoT meta together for a reason and your Jiaoqiu and HHuo will make that team.

They're still solid apart, Kafka will raise a well invested E4+ Sampo, Guinaifen etc and Swan is a fantastic stack builder for Acheron and slots well with all DoT units etc but if you're going to lean into DoT then you pair them up.

Still waiting for that decent company to do right by my man Blade. Long wait...

@patronmacabre - Erm! Ackshully. Polychrome is Zzzzzz's currency and Primogems are Genshin's. HSR has Stellar Jades.

Thankfully I can skip all these banners. Don't need any abundance units (Lingsha isn't harmony as stated in the article) and already own Swan and Kafka.

Feixiao looks great but I have the holy grail break squad of Firefly/Ruan Mei/HMC/Gallagher and I highly doubt she'll creep anyone in the break department.

@z0d15g0d - Looks like your wallet is taking a hammering on that DoT banner mate. Ouch!

Take my money Poncle. Already done it all on Xbox, time to double dip!

Weapon Evolution cheat sheet. Very useful if you're new to the game.

@StrickenBiged - Well I guess in that case your ad hoc maths paints an even bleaker picture.

@StrickenBiged - I'm pretty sure that PSN profiles can only scrape the data of site members so it can't give the full picture.

@StrickenBiged - 7.4k store ratings does not mean 7.4k game purchases. Anyone that added the PS+ early trial version could leave a rating. You can rate anything added to your library whether you played it or not.

Bit of AC Mirage and some Honkai Star Rail event stuff. Then early to bed to wake up at stupid O'clock for the Terence Crawford vs Israil Madrimov fight. Have a good weekend all!

@BIG3 - The combat system is decent and the weapons are really inventive but everything else is pretty bad.

Combat and animation wise it's a solid 8. Really enjoyable when fighting but the overworld is as dull as dishwater. That entire TV thing is abysmal, awful pacing and that music in there is ear cancer. 6/10 overall.

Really like the combat and the animation both in combat and cutscenes is absolutely top tier but everything else is kinda meh. Definitely the weakest of the 3 games Hoyo have released on console imho. GI and HSR both seem like actual AAA console games that happen to have mobile ports, ZZZ seems like a AA mobile game that got a PS5 port.

@Anke - The platinum requires a few end game trophies which will need two teams of max rank, fully geared up characters. It'll take a while for even P2W whales to get there.

@OldGamer999 - This is from Ubisoft Massive, a dev team who manage to break a 5 year old game with alarming regularity in the Division 2. Stable and bug free are foreign concepts to them.

@Throb - I haven't played DD2 but in the original you could tune your own pawn to barely speak at all. Mine was near mute. Did they remove that in 2?

To keep the chatter to a minimum I never hired them and the few times the game forced me to use other pawns I threw them off a cliff.

@z0d15g0d - Hah, I've no idea mate. I think my ridiculously good luck ship has sailed. Lost a few 50/50 recently and been pushed into the 80's for my last 2 5* wins. I had a good run!

AC Mirage. Only a few hours in but liking it so far. Parkour feels really good, nice blend of the old and new. Feels much better than the full on auto pathing in the RPG games. Have a good weekend all!

@z0d15g0d - I'll be on this too, pretty much given up with Genshin due to a complete lack of challenge. Combat in ZZZ looks like it might actually require a bit of thought. Looking forward to it.

@ATaco - Everything you actually need relic wise is hard to get naturally with this game and its piss taking RNG. It took me 6 months to get a functional Quantum set for Seele. Not a great set, just functional.

I'm real wary of using remodel resin too but if I absolutely need a certain main stat on a piece then I'll craft it when all else has failed.

@ATaco - Why not craft a ER rope and some speed boots? The sub stats are still RNG bound but at least you can guarantee the main stat you want.

All this ever needed was a PS5 performance patch, it runs like ass on PS4/Pro. Instead creatively bankrupt Sony pump out yet another pointless remaster.
