I'm almost 50, and even the games on my Atari 2600, ran at 60fps.

About damn time. I'm totally burned out by all the boring cinematic AAA games.

Love Astrobot, so I hope the rumours are true.

What I want from the next CEO.
Move PS HQ back to Japan, and make more AA first party games again.

Doubt it will beat the PS2 at that.

Wow...yet another subscription service...

I couldn't care less at the moment.
This gen have been incredibly boring.
Both AAA and Indies are just releasing the same kind of games, over and over again.
Maybe I'm just bored of modern games.
I'm having much more fun, with PS2 games now.

I wish it was a physical product, so I could smash it with a hammer. 😂

I just wish that they had given the Pro a much faster CPU. This means that CPU demanding games, will still struggle on the Pro...

I'll check out the demo.
I'm still not sure about this one.
So many hyped games lately, have ended up being disappointments for me.

I enjoyed Ninja Gaiden, but I'm just not a fan of their later Souls like games.

They should scale back on the npc AI, to lower the load on the poor CPU.
PS5 Pro won't improve the performance much, since the CPU is only 10% faster. Maybe a few frames and that's it.

So a 2028 launch title for PS6 then...
And maybe GTA 7, before I die of old age on PS10 😂

So no easy way to fast travel, in a huge open world game? I don't have time for that.

I'll wait a couple of months, and hope it's been patched and polished by then.

Too bad they didn't give the CPU a major upgrade as well. It might become a bottleneck.

At the moment, I have zero hopes about this and the Silent Hill remake.

You don't need to stay in rhythm, you get better score if you do, but you can just hack and slash in your own style, if you want to.

Think I'll just upgrade my PC instead.

I can't stand this guy.
Just announce games, online, and skip the rest of the boring crap.

I'll bet we'll get more embarrassing Kojima worshipping...

@cuttlefishjones

Yeah, I still got my PS2 hooked up. I've been playing through Maximo 2 and Darkwatch, two games I didn't get the chance to play back then. And I'm actually having more fun discovering "new" games on the PS2, than playing on my PS5.

Amongst my friends, I'm still the only one, that has upgraded to PS5. If it keeps getting great games, it might even survive the entire PS5 generation. This far into the next generation, the PS2 and PS3, was either dead, or only got Fifa games.

And PS4 still has the better UI.

I hate cinematic trailers.
Show us gameplay!

I give up. I've played about 17 hours now, and it's just a chore to play. If they had cut down on all the padded and unnecessary crap, then they might have been able to finish the story in this one...

I enjoyed Remake, but even that one had issues.
But none of them as bad as in this one.

And the amount of nonstop dialogue, is driving me nuts, during combat.

I think I'm done with this franchise.

I see it suffers from the same endless talking, as in Raiden V. I hope you can turn it off.
I don't want unnecessary distractions, when playing a shmup...

What might keep me from playing this, is because I'm totally burned out on open worlds.
I hope we get a demo.

@TommyNL
So if you don't like a Sony exclusive, then you're just a Xbox fanboy?
Grow up.

They need to cut down on the terrible side quests and bloat.
Not sure I'm gonna return for part 3, after playing Rebirth.

Did Ubisoft co-produce this?
So many terrible and pointless side quests, and other useless bloat. The first 10-20 hours was fun, but after that...

They should have kept it at 30-40 hours. There's just not enough story in here.

I think I'm done with Final Fantasy.
It's just not the same franchise I grew up with, during 90:s.

I'll give it a 6, because I had fun in the early part of the game.

Probably gonna suffer from the same problem that basically all modern tv-shows does now.
Focus too much on soap opera nonsense, and just sprinkle in a minute or two of action in the beginning and end of the episodes. And then it will go on for too many seasons, with worse and worse quality.

I don't feel any excitement for tv-shows any longer. Same with the trash that is released in theaters.

Guess I just got old and grumpy 😂

I'm bored by modern AAA games.
Cinematics and realistic graphics don't impress me anymore. I rather they would make more AA games instead, with fun artstyles, and new ideas/gameplay. With smaller budgets, they can take more risks again, and focus on actual gameplay. Plus they don't take 5 years to make.

@Splat
It's not a proper open world. It has open areas/regions.
And FFXVI, which also had open areas, like this one, looks MUCH better.

I'm bored of mega budget AAA games.
They play it too safe, and focus too much on cinematics and realistic graphics.
Sony could have made those studios make lower budget AA games instead, to fill in the void between their AAA releases.
This will generation have been a huge disappointment, both from Xbox and PS. And from now on, I'll stick to PC and Nintendo consoles.

They need to stop wasting hundreds of millions of dollars, making a damn video game.
They have gone too far with this whole AAA thing.

I really miss the PS1-PS3 era of Playstation.
The magic is gone...

I finally got someone to buy my PSVR2.
Good riddance.

I would also get drunk, if I had to sit through one of these boring award shows.

My PSVR2 is gathering dust.
Not even RE4 VR could hold my interest long, due to the janky controls etc.

I'm having much more fun with Quest 3.
Especially since I can also play PCVR games wireless.

Been trying to sell my PSVR2, but so far noone is interested in buying the damn thing...

Well, no s**t.
It was doomed from day 1.

"Excessive padding at times
Some truly crap side quests"

Same as the Remake then. (And also the genre as a whole)
I don't have the patience with yet another one of those games, where 2/3rds of the game, is a chore to play.

The Switch version looks and runs like a**.
Glad it finally gets a release on more powerful platforms.

**** Limited Run...
Often we get standard retail releases over here in Europe, of titles that LGR got their nasty hands on, in the US. So hopefully Hi-Fi Rush, is one of those titles, that gets a standard physical release over here.

So balanced is 40fps?
I wish more games had a balaced mode.

FFVII Rebirth, would be a perfect choice for that.

I'll just keep playing the original on the PS2.
I'm done with all these remakes. They should have re-released the PS2 version in the PS store, and made a brand new game instead.

Feels like the gen has barely started, thanks to all the damn remasters, remakes and cross-gen games...

I hope the next gen, doesn't pull this s**t again.

Been playing more and more PS2 and PS3 games lately.

Looking forward to a well deserved video game crash.

Make more AA games, not infested with boring cinematics, and move PS HQ back to Japan.

Sweet! That's earlier than I expected.

I wish we got more PS1-PS2 games.
Premium just isn't worth it, for me.

I ended up getting FreeMcBoot and a HDD for my old PS2, instead of waiting for the classics to come to the service.

Whatever comes next from Sony, it better be a new IP's. I'm so damn burned out on anything Spider-Man, Horizon, God of War, The Last of Us, etc.

Or bring back Jak and Daxter, Sly Cooper, Resistance, Killzone and Astrobot, if you can't come up with a brand new platformer or FPS IP.

@SgtTruth
Yeah, at this rate, I might have died of old age, before GTA VII comes out

Visuals are okey (though looked a bit last-gen), but the game design feels very dated. And those sequences, when you have to push L2 and R2, to crawl and turn the valve, just felt like something that should have died, in the PS3 era. The demo for the Remake was much better paced. This felt kinda boring, to be honest.

Hope you can turn of the motion blur in the full game, as it gave me motion sickness. Something I rarely get, even in VR games.
