@Consolegamer123 The CEO before Jim Ryan moved over to the PS Now department to focus on that, so I’d assume he wouldn’t have done that unless they see big promise and growth in that area? And besides marketing and some big PS4 games rotating every few months, there hasn’t been any other substantial change that I’m aware of yet.
Never really understood these too well, but maybe this will be the generation I finally try one out. I have a Sony TV (the OG 3D tv....yeah...that worked out well for me) Sony soundbar and PS4 and I generally only use the PS4 remote to do everything but turn on the TV. I guess having the controller fall asleep is a bit annoying, but other than that idk.
Maybe they will continue to rebrand PSNow (add more first party PS4 games around the ps5 launch) and throw in a 3 month subscription with the consoles to help entice consumers as an alternative to game pass.
They couldn’t of had the last CEO step down and take over PSNow role for nothing. I feel like it’s gonna get a big overhaul around launch.
YES! Looks amazing! And, like usual, Chris has another redesign! Haha at least this time he looks like he should. Wish his RE5 voice actor was back but whatever. I’ll take what I can get.
Never heard of the first one, but this is an awesome concept!! Hope it does well and this type of game can become a genre down the road as VR continues to improve!
@andreoni79 It was an awesome trailer! But when I played the game I felt like it wasn’t at all what the trailer conveyed. I found a Wikipedia article on it actually:
“ The lack of gameplay information was also criticized. Laura Parker found the trailer disconnected from the actual game, with the trailer being misleading by not showing any in-game information, and with the game failing to deliver the same emotional effect as the trailer.[22] Daemon Hatfield from IGN similarly thought that the trailer was not useful in assessing the game's quality and expressed concerns that the game would not be as entertaining and interesting as the trailer.[27] Upon release, many reviewers thought that the trailer had set expectation too high for the actual game, and that the game ended up not meeting expectations.[23”
Wow this looks cool! May have to wait for a sale - looks really intense and may be too spooky for me! Haha I liked RE7 in VR but this looks like it would be way worse!
I wish it wasn’t connected to the AC games. I’ve lost interest after the 2nd games spin offs. Played a bit of Syndicate, and I just don’t care about the whole Templar/Assassins thing. I’d rather have an awesome Vikings games about Vikings. Not assassins and abstergo.
I’ve been wanting to try farming simulator for years! Super pumped!! Also heard cities skylines was good. Glad to finally get some good simulation games in my library.
I got 4 DS4’s at launch. 3 of them have the rubber coming off the sticks, as well as some of the D pad buttons not working.
I barely played my system for the first 4 years, am extremely careful with my stuff, and have no idea why of all the buttons, the stupid D pad doesn’t work.
I’m loving Resistance. Been meaning to finish RE3 but Resistance has been way too addicting. Takes a bit to get used to the gameplay but after that it’s fantastic! Obviously more fun with friends, but still, I’d recommend it.
Need some balancing still though. And hopefully they can push out new content on a more frequent basis!
Less gimmicks on the controller the better. I still hate the touchpad. Even first party games don’t bother with it anymore. It’s basically become a map button.
@jdv95 If it follows what 7 set up with The Connections (or whatever that organization is called) could be an Evie 2.0 I mean, she was basically a witch, just didn’t turn into insects.
Idk, I look at my younger siblings and they play significantly fewer titles than I did growing up. (GameCube through end of PS3) And not due to lack of money or whatever, just due to the massive time investment games today are.
This is a good and bad thing I guess, but I’m happy I got to put in a game, experience it from start to end, and then get to experience something else. Seems like today’s games aren’t built to ‘satisfy’ with an ending. Just keep going on and on.
I would like 0/1/CV to be remade with more modern control schemes. I know we have 0/1 on the PS4, but all the other games in the series have enjoyable control schemes.
@M1359 It has something for all levels. There’s a lot geared towards beginners (they have ‘arcade games’ that are things like learning to pluck certain strings etc) but then there’s the actual songs transcribed note by note which if you’re already an intermediate player you can hop right into at performance level - if you’re a beginner it will dumb down the song and progressively add more complex notes until it builds to the actual song.
They also have a really cool ‘session’ mode which basically allows you to jam with an AI band. It actually works really well!
@CFDennett It recommends using external audio via the PS4’s optical output - I experience no lag this way - but if you don’t have a sound bar it’s obviously another investment you’d have to make.
This game is awesome. Highly recommend to anyone desiring to play guitar. I started with this and it really does help build up some basic skills and gets you to learn how to play full songs. If anyone has questions about the game feel free to ask!
I mean, with the type of BOW that Eevie was and the ending of Revelations 2, I could totally see a new bio weapon looking something like a witch or vampire.
At least vampires still bite people’s necks so we’d still get some cool ‘You Are Dead’ scenes haha
Doesn’t really sound like RE3 remake was all that terrible? More a source material issue - which since 4 is held in such high regard to begin with shouldn’t really be a problem if that were the remake.

Re: Gallery: Destruction AllStars Is PS5's Big Multiplayer Card
Looks fun! Will give it a try if it hits the free to play market! (Which it looks like with the focus on cosmetics through the whole trailer)
Re: Gallery: Sackboy Looks Adorable As Ever in Big Adventure's PS5 Screenshots
Looking forward to a new game with Sackboy! Shame there’s no create mode but just glad they’re keeping him around!
Re: PS5's New 1080p Camera Is Super Cute
I hope they update the PSVR 2 so it doesn’t require one of these.
Re: Hitman 3 Scales the Top of the World on PS5, PS4 Next Year
Glad i can port them - never got around to playing but two or three missions of the first game, but have 1 and 2.
Re: Demon's Souls Remake on PS5 Is Real
Still can't get past the second level on PS3, lets see if i can on PS5!

Re: THQ Nordic, Koch Media Owner Has a Ludicrous 118 Games in Development
I’m happy that we have a large number of AA titles hopefully coming back for PS5. I felt like PS4 was either indie or AAA games compared to ps3
Re: Gap Squeezing in PS5's Unreal Engine 5 Demo Was Not a Disguised Loading Screen, Says Epic
@phil_j I’m not convinced those are load screens. If you wear the X Ray glasses. Items show up in those Rooms before you squeeze through the walls.
Re: Capcom Plans to Release Multiple 'Major' Games Before April 2021
I’d love a Dead Rising reboot. But the last two were just so meh compared to DR2, so I don’t hold on to any sort of hope.
Re: Summer Game Fest 'Special Showcase Event' Announced for Wednesday
With all these watered down digital events, now I kinda wish there was one E3 event weekend
Re: Pixel Ripped 1995 Is Another Bizarre Blast From the Past, Coming to PSVR Tomorrow

Re: Poll: How Much Do 'True' Gameplay Trailers Matter to You?
I’ve hated these CGi cutscenes that don’t represent the final games at all, that we’ve been getting this generation.
Dead Island was the worst offender of this back in the day, and ever since I’ve hated them.
Diablo’s are pretty cool, but other then that, just give me gameplay trailers. Not things that make me want something that doesn’t exist.
Re: Reaction: Sony Needs to Show Us a True, Next-Gen PS5 Exclusive After Lukewarm Inside Xbox
i was all in for a day 1 purchase. But honestly as time goes on, the more I’m inclined to just wait.
Hope Sony can pull out a truly awesome slate of launch titles.
Re: Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 Is Out for Blood in Latest Trailer
I’m super intrigued by this! The trailer was awesome!
Re: Assassin's Creed Valhalla Next-Gen Gameplay Revealed
I watched that live and am still confused if it’s actually gameplay or not. I anticipated a trailer after that one to show gameplay.
Re: The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners Is Out Now on PSVR
Wow this looks cool! May have to wait for a sale - looks really intense and may be too spooky for me! Haha I liked RE7 in VR but this looks like it would be way worse!
Re: Instead of Buying IPs, THQ Nordic Is Now Swapping Them
SACRED REMASTER!!!! Or a new game. I loved the second game!! Just recently busted it out on my PS3.
Re: Prince of Persia 6 Website Domain Registered by Ubisoft
Would be awesome! Hope it’s not a mobile game.

Re: Sony Researching Finger Tracking Controllers for PSVR, and There's Video Proof
If they could pull off these type of controller and a cordless headset (or at least just a box that attaches to your belt), that would be amazing!
Re: Talking Point: What New Trophy Features Do You Want on PS5?
I want to be able to buy a physical platinum trophy if I’ve earned it in a game.

Re: Multiplayer Title Predator: Hunting Grounds Is Out Now on PS4
I was excited for this until the beta. I’d give it another go if it went free to play, but even then, the gameplay was pretty shallow.
Re: Random: Kratos Becomes the Ultimate Duck Dad in God of War Tubbz Range
I’d pick these up if I see them at GameStop or something. They’re pretty funny!
Re: New AAA PS4 Game Releases Are Quickly Starting to Slow Down
Oh gosh, they really should have delayed Hunting Grounds. That beta was so bad. Fun, but bad.
Re: Rumour: Resident Evil 8 Will Feature PSVR Support
Hope it will launch with with PSVR 2. Sold me on the first one and would really love for the next one to have updated graphics and features.
Re: Resident Evil 3 Reaches Two Million Sales Across Shipments and Digital
Really enjoyed it. Although I wish they expanded the first area of the game significantly.
The later areas were fine, but wish the first section had more - took me longer to get under the RPD then it did to beat all of RE3 haha.
Re: PS5's DualSense Controller Has Vastly Improved Analogue Sticks

Re: Guitar Training Tool Rocksmith Could Be Tuning Up on PS5

Re: Round Up: Resident Evil 3 PS4 Reviews Reveal Remake Doesn't Quite Relive Last Year's Success
FYI it’s sitting at 80 on metacritic vs the 65/70 it’s averaging based on the above snippets.
Still pumped for the game!! Hopefully the multiplayer will help round out the shorter single player content. (Even if it is an unbalanced mess lol)
