@JamieO I recently went through Slipstream again thanks to the free PS5 upgrade. Such a great game. I’ll be going through the Top Racer games as soon as I’ve finished Rebirth too.
As I’ve said in the other couple of articles, I’ve really enjoyed the first year. Sure it would be great to know what Sony’s own plans are for it, but aside from that, there has been loads of quality titles. Looking forward to seeing what the future brings.
I still remember when someone spoiled Arthur Fonzarelli, aka The Fonz, aka Fonzie, making the greatest stunt ever. Everyone thought he would fail, but one guy saw it early, had a few beers and blurted out that he had successfully jumped the shark. Talk about ruined.
How has PlayStation been in our lives for almost 30 years? I still remember picking up my launch day PlayStation from good old Dixons. Been loving the brand since then. Thanks for all you did Jim!
I actually wanted to give it a shot and I tried for about 45 minutes. Managed to get 2 games. I just stand around by the helicopter, waiting and waiting for it to find a game.
To be fair, the two games I played were quite good fun.
I’ll try again later and see if I can find any games to join.
Been with Xbox since the start so nothing really means much to me of it moves over. From that list though, I would maybe consider playing Forza Horizon, Crackdown and Perfect Dark on PlayStation.
I would be more interested in some of the franchises making a move onto PSVR2.
Never touched Fortnite, but the things Epic are doing lately are definitely spiking my interest. Looking forward to seeing this much larger collaboration with Disney.
Dead Rising please. I know it’s not a popular choice, but it’s easily one of my favourite franchises ever. Something about wrecking stuff in bizarre costumes with insane weapons… not sure what that says about me.
I went for the Platinum on Remake, but gave up when I realised the nightmare of the “dress” stuff, and then thinking about redoing some of the poorer sections again. I’ll probably skip the Platinum run on this version too. Really looking forward to it.
@Northern_munkey Same. I can’t remember why I didn’t have time for it when it came out. But I was pretty happy to see it arrive on PlayStation Plus. So I downloaded and like you, I think I managed 2 hours and I don’t know if I’ll be going back. Doesn't have the same Borderlands feel.

Day one for me. Looks great.
Re: Rumour: PS5 Pro's 'Enhanced' Label Covers Resolution, Frame Rate, Ray Tracing Upgrades
From what we’ve “heard” it all sounds great to me. I hope they officially announce it soon, I want to get my preorder in. I can’t wait.
Re: Jim Ryan Leaves PlayStation as PS5 Set to Become Its 'Most Successful Console Ever'
One of the people that’s helped shape PlayStation since day one. Massive effort. Thanks for everything Jim!
Re: PS5, PS4's Gran Turismo 7 Continues to Get Better and Better
Top quality racer. I’m just hoping they still have some plans to bring a few more world class tracks to the game. It’s so good racing on them in VR.
Re: Star Wars Outlaws Rated in Australia
As I said on the Xbox site, this is easily one of my most anticipated games of this year. I can’t wait.
Re: Seismic Free No Man's Sky Update Transforms Space Stations on PS5, PS4
Looking forward to trying it all out in PSVR2. Absolutely amazing VR game

I’ll be getting it day one. I can’t wait.
Re: South Park: Snow Day! (PS5) - 3D Co-Op Card Brawler Is a Step Back for the Franchise
Really surprised this turned out ok and managed a 6. Based on what they had shown, it looked like 4 or possibly worse.
Re: PSN Is Currently Down, Seemingly a Widespread Issue
Downloading seems to be working fine. Was just playing Final Fantasy Rebirth and popped a few trophies too.
Re: PS Portal Is Proving Everyone's Predictions Wrong
I absolutely love my PlayStation Portal and use it all the time. Amazing piece of kit, works perfectly and ergonomically spot on.
Re: Both God of War PS5, PS4 Games Battle for Top Billing in Sony's Twitter Competition
Both are amazing. But I think Ragnarok edges it.

Re: Everyone's Talking About Eve's Outfits in PS5 Exclusive Stellar Blade
I like turtles.
Re: Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition Demands a Futuristic PC
I’ll double dip on this if it runs at a playable level on the ROG Ally. The first one runs really well.
Re: PS Plus Essential's Monthly Games for March 2024 Available Now on PS5, PS4
@Panic_Attache @0niguy Same here. Asking for £24.99 on the PlayStation 5 store and the PlayStation app.
Re: Remedy Regains Control of Control IP from Publisher 505 Games
Control is my favourite game from these guys. The entire aesthetic of that game is amazing. Really hope we get more.
Re: Sea of Thieves Players on PS5 Will Need a Microsoft Account to Play
Hmm, I wonder if cross save will auto pop trophies for the achievements we already have.
Re: 900 PlayStation Employees Laid Off, London Studio Shutting Down
Damn, was hoping for something random/brilliant to pop out of London Studio. Gutted.
Re: Foamstars Season 2 Groovy Disco Adds New Playable Character, Extra Missions, More
Just tried getting a game, wasted about 15 minutes timing out each time and gave up.
Managed to find 3 games the weekend it came out and it’s been dead for me ever since.
What I did play wasn’t too bad. Certainly made me come back again. Just a shame the servers seem dead whenever I try to play.
Re: Video: One Year Later, Is PSVR2 Doing Enough?
As I’ve said in the other couple of articles, I’ve really enjoyed the first year. Sure it would be great to know what Sony’s own plans are for it, but aside from that, there has been loads of quality titles. Looking forward to seeing what the future brings.
Re: Poll: What Do You Think of PSVR2, One Year Later?
I’ve absolutely loved my time so far with PSVR2. Looking forward to the next year too.
Re: Make Peace with Mortal Kombat 1's Peacemaker on PS5 from Next Week
I cherish this DLC with all my heart. I don't care how many men, women, and children I need to kill to get it.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Director Makes Final Plaintive Spoiler Plea to Content Creators
I still remember when someone spoiled Arthur Fonzarelli, aka The Fonz, aka Fonzie, making the greatest stunt ever. Everyone thought he would fail, but one guy saw it early, had a few beers and blurted out that he had successfully jumped the shark. Talk about ruined.
Re: Sony Celebrates One Year of PSVR2 with New Game Reveals
Had a great year with PSVR2. Looking forward to more. Gran Turismo 7 in VR still blows my mind every time I play it.
Re: Outgoing PlayStation Exec Says Sony Must Continue to Entertain, Surprise, and Delight

Re: Random: New York Times Posts Decades-Old Final Fantasy 7 Spoilers on Front Page
Thanks for spoiling the front page of The New York Times for me.
Re: Borderlands Film Shares First Look at Its Live-Action Cast
I’m looking forward to it. I really like the Borderlands world, so any sort of expansion interests me.
Re: Upgraded PS5 Pro Planning to Be the Best Place to Play GTA 6
I’d hand over the money for one right now if I could. I can’t wait.
Re: Cleanse Filthy Warhammer 40,000 Vehicles in Blessed PowerWash Simulator DLC
@Jayslow Cool, thanks. I’ll give it another go. Seems a shame to leave a platinum with so little left to do. Hope the trophy patch works!
Re: Cleanse Filthy Warhammer 40,000 Vehicles in Blessed PowerWash Simulator DLC
@Jayslow After those last few levels I was gutted when I found out the Platinum was broken. Hahaha.
Glad I hadn’t spent ages on the water and time trials before I found out though.
Which ones did you manage to complete? I had a few goes on some of the supposed “easy” levels and was way off. Haha.
Fingers crossed they eventually fix the trophies and they auto pop for us. 🤞🏼
Re: Helldivers 2 Beats Destiny 2's All-Time Steam Peak, Gaining on Palworld
@Kidfunkadelic83 Thanks for the info, much appreciated. I do like that look of it, might just talk some of friends into buying it. Haha.
Re: Despite Recent Success, Bandai Namco Reveals It Cancelled at Least Five In-Development Games
Praying a new Ace Combat with PSVR2 compatibility isn’t one of them.
Re: Helldivers 2 Beats Destiny 2's All-Time Steam Peak, Gaining on Palworld
@DennisReynolds I didn’t realise there was a solo option. I might buy this then.
Re: SEGA's New Sapporo Studio Contributing to AAA Titles Like Crazy Taxi PS5
Really looking forward to this. I still play Crazy Taxi quite regularly. The gameplay loop hooks me every time.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Players Go to Town on Tifa's Piano on PS5
Love stuff like this. No idea what those songs are supposed to sound like, I thought I knew the last one, but not sure.
Wish I had the talent to pull something like that off. Haha.
Re: Foamstars (PS5) - PS Plus' Sudsy Shooter Is Good, Clean Fun

Re: Disney Secures $1.5 Billion Stake in Epic Games, Plans 'Entertainment Universe' in Fortnite
Never touched Fortnite, but the things Epic are doing lately are definitely spiking my interest. Looking forward to seeing this much larger collaboration with Disney.
Re: Poll: Will You Be Watching the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth State of Play?
Aside from the release date. I know nothing about it. It’s 100% a day one purchase. I can’t wait to play it.
Re: Capcom Currently Polling Player Interest for Sequels to Okami, Dino Crisis, More
Dead Rising please. I know it’s not a popular choice, but it’s easily one of my favourite franchises ever. Something about wrecking stuff in bizarre costumes with insane weapons… not sure what that says about me.
Re: Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered Has Almost 300 Trophies, But Zero PS5 Platinums
Never understood any games coming without Platinums. So many games I’ve 100%’ed that just have a few gold, silver and bronzes.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for February 2024?
Great month for me. Haven’t played any. 33p a day for Premium. Can’t complain. My daily morning Starbucks large tea costs £3.70. Haha.
Re: Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's Long Trophy List Revealed, 61 to Unlock
I went for the Platinum on Remake, but gave up when I realised the nightmare of the “dress” stuff, and then thinking about redoing some of the poorer sections again. I’ll probably skip the Platinum run on this version too. Really looking forward to it.
Re: Rumour: A New PlayStation Handheld Console Reportedly in the Works
I’d preorder and pay in full right now if I could. Haha.
Re: Star Wars Outlaws PS5 Sounding Like the Scoundrel Simulator We Always Wanted
Easily top 3 most anticipated games this year for me. Heading for mercenary. Always mercenary. Haha.
Re: Site News: Where's Our Suicide Squad PS5 Review?
Completed it mate.
Re: Focus Entertainment Inexplicably Rebranding to PulluP Entertainment in April 2024
Our company is nosediving. What should we do? PulluP.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 512
This weekend I will be mostly playing Soul Fjord on the Ouya, Pistol Whip on the PSVR2 and Slipstream on the PS5.
