@TheFrenchiestFry The biggest issue with All Stars (I think) was the utter non existent marketing, awful balance (which should have been easily patched!), no post launch support, and the PS4s launch right around the corner. It was a fun couch co op fighter at the time!
If they relaunched it now, with updated roster and some marketing, i see no reason why it wouldn’t be a success. Especially if they went F2P with character battle passes.
@Juanalf that was my favorite part of All Stars! I can’t stand smash bros, i loved All Stars gameplay so much more! (Yes, i know I’m in an ultra minority on that opinion haha)
I feel like this kind of stuff would be better saved for part of a bigger show. Maybe i just need to get out of the E3 mindset and on board with the more frequent but smaller announcement type of thing.
If you look at the way the consoles are arranged on the stands, the PS4’s disc drive is facing the back.
Really frustrated me when I set up my entertainment center.
Also, questions for any tech people: is PS1/2 emulation really that hard to add in? My PC and phone and even a raspberry pie I coded can play Tomb Raider from a PS1.
I don’t understand the point of giving you the credits back, on a pass that has no time limit. I guess it’s so hard to grind they just expect people not to complete it before another superhero comes out that someone would move onto?
I hope they up the variation in the games. I played for 4 hours yesterday and every game got see saw in round 1 or 2. On the bright side I’m really good at that stage now.
Still weird that it costs that much for basically a bunch of licenses.
They could sell and then instantly pull the rights to those franchises if they wanted and sell them elsewhere. (Obviously the buyer would have terms agreed to beforehand but still).
I kinda forgot about this. I loved it at first but it got so stinking annoying if you didn’t have a full party haha. Also annoying if you had high level masterminds versus low level survivors.
This is the first I’ve heard that Devs in Japan have had a harder time adapting to work from home. Is there a reason why? Or can anyone share an article that talks about it?
I just REALLY hope it stays it’s own thing and doesn’t pull a ‘surprise! It’s FFXVI’. A whole new franchise without fandom baggage is always nice. But either way it looks really cool!
While I love to see risks being made, it has been nice to know that when Sony puts a game out, it’s going to be a solid game with polished gameplay and story.
After the success of bloodborne, it surprises me that Sony hasn’t had more exclusives with FromSoftware, as of yet. Hopefully they have something in the pipeline.
Sony remaking demons souls shows that they know there’s a big interest.
This is what I’ve been waiting for since early access. Sad to say I haven’t tried Dreams for more than 30 min yet, maybe this will really get me to explore its creations, VR and non VR
Been since basically launch since I last played this, so my memory is rusty, but I thought basically the whole continent was open to different zones to explore? When they add expansions do they basically re-do certain zones and make them bigger?
Or is my memory bad and lots of the map actually blocked off and these expansions are just totally new areas?
Miss Jack Tretton And his speeches. He had a good stage presence.
Crazy how short game development used to be back before the 2010’s. Could have an amazing game developed in a year or two. Can’t imagine working like that.

Re: Horizon Forbidden West Is Coming to Both PS5 and PS4
If GOW is the same (and Demon Souls to a lesser extent) i just went from a day 1 to 2022 purchaser.
Re: Demon's Souls Remake Is a PS5 Launch Game
@Octane yeah, once i heard that m hype for PS5 instantly died. Like why bother getting it first year if exclusives are going to be cross gen?
Re: Demon's Souls Remake Is a PS5 Launch Game
Also of note : For 69.99$
Also potentially coming to PS4 down the road too, with that ending note of *coming to other consoles and PC
Re: PS5 Pre-Orders Start Tomorrow at Select Retailers
Looks like Sony games are priced at 70$.....super bummed
Also Geoff mentioned some retailers may open preorders today. Keep your eyes open !
Re: Talking Point: Did the PS5 Showcase Event Deliver?
Hoping for more info on the console and its features, but this was still really good!!
Re: Random: Here's Super Mario 64 Running on PS2
PS5, backwards comparability with N64 confirmed.

Re: Spider-Man PS4 Has an Unused Spider-Cop Suit That Uses Stan Lee's Moustache
Those spider cop comments at the beginning are some of my favorite parts. This would have been amazing.
Re: Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series - Star Wars and VR Are Made for Each Other
Teleportation is a frustrating choice, especially when games like Skyrim do it so well. On my radar tho once it goes on sale!
Re: Big Yeetus, a Randomly Spawning Hammer, Will Shake Up Fall Guys Levels Soon
I don’t understand why they aren’t adding stage remixes or randomization. I’d like to be surprised when the hazards are rearranged every time i play.
Re: Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales PS5 Is One of This Year's Most Anticipated Games
I just want to know what games actually launch with the thing. Otherwise, i might as well wait until after the new year to get a PS5.
I was a day 1 purchase for the longest time. But as time goes on i see less and less reason to get it Day 1.
Re: PS5 Doesn't Have an Optical Audio Port
Hopefully Rocksmith will still work fine. That’s the whole reason i got a sound bar and optical cable.
Re: PS5 Won't Play PS3, PS2, or PS1 Games
If you look at the way the consoles are arranged on the stands, the PS4’s disc drive is facing the back.
Really frustrated me when I set up my entertainment center.
Also, questions for any tech people: is PS1/2 emulation really that hard to add in? My PC and phone and even a raspberry pie I coded can play Tomb Raider from a PS1.
Re: Marvel's Avengers Has a Paid Battle Pass for Every Superhero After Launch
I don’t understand the point of giving you the credits back, on a pass that has no time limit. I guess it’s so hard to grind they just expect people not to complete it before another superhero comes out that someone would move onto?
Re: Talking Point: Did You Love or Loathe Gamescom Opening Night Live?
The coolest thing i saw was my phone being able to play Xbox games. Now i know i can play Avowed for 15$ when it comes out lol.
Was really disappointed at the titles shown, but I’m glad for those that saw something they were excited for!
Re: The Last of Us 2 Glitches Compilation Proves Naughty Dog Isn't Perfect
I didn’t experience a single bug either haha.
Re: Fall Guys Patch May Reduce How Often Team Games Are Selected
I hope they up the variation in the games. I played for 4 hours yesterday and every game got see saw in round 1 or 2. On the bright side I’m really good at that stage now.
Re: PlayStation Is Bringing Back a Number of PS4 Controller Colours This Month
I hope PS5 has a bunch of colors right at the start. I tend to buy 4 controllers right away and never need to buy more.
Although my joysticks are looking really bad after 7 years haha.
Re: Fall Guys Flexes Figures with Impressive Infographic
I love it. But really hate how tanky my guy controls haha. Just so used to the polish of games like TLOU that games like this are extra difficult!
Re: How Well Do You Know Naughty Dog?
5 these were tricky!
I remember playing U3 multiplayer and the teasers for TLOU first appearing in newspapers on tables of some of the maps!
Re: Hood: Outlaws & Legends Brings Gritty 4v4 Heists to PS5, PS4 in 2021
I was EXTREMELY excited until I saw that it was 4v4. Now it’s gonna be a hard pass from me.
Re: Play the Entire Hitman Trilogy on PSVR From January 2021
This was an amazing announcement. Super pumped!
Re: Interview: The Bugsnax Team Reacts to Going Viral and the Pressure it Brings
I still have no idea what you do in this game, but I’m pretty intrigued!
Totally a game I would have passed on but that darn theme song has me super interested it! Fantastic marketing!
Re: Interview: Fall Guys Devs on PS Plus, Post-Launch Support, and Craig Charles
Great interview! Really looking forward to giving this a try! Most excited I’ve been for a Plus game in a long time!
Re: Big PS Now Update Brings Hitman 2, Greedfall, Dead Cells, More
Wow! Been wanting to try Greedfall. Maybe it’s time I try our PSNow.
Re: Game Sales Are Leaning More and More Towards Digital as Sony Reports Huge PlayStation Store Success
I love having games I love sit on the shelf. I still try to get physical copies when I can, but swapping games while sitting down is quite nice.
One thing that stinks tho, is I have to bring my entire PS4 to my buddys house when we play Overcooked.
Re: Can You Name These PS3 Exclusives?
Those JRPGs killed my score hahahaha
Re: EA Could Be Considering Warner Bros Gaming Division Buyout
Still weird that it costs that much for basically a bunch of licenses.
They could sell and then instantly pull the rights to those franchises if they wanted and sell them elsewhere. (Obviously the buyer would have terms agreed to beforehand but still).
Re: Random: Want a PS5 Right Now? Grab a Cardboard Version
This one has only 8$ shipping in the US. Better hurry though, only 1 available!

Edit: even better, it’s made by a kindergartner
Re: Resident Evil Resistance DLC Lets You Cosplay as Leon and Claire
I kinda forgot about this. I loved it at first but it got so stinking annoying if you didn’t have a full party haha.
Also annoying if you had high level masterminds versus low level survivors.
Re: Gran Turismo 7's PS5 Release Date Has Sparked Some Discussion
This is the first I’ve heard that Devs in Japan have had a harder time adapting to work from home. Is there a reason why? Or can anyone share an article that talks about it?
Re: PS5's Project Athia Is Open World, Makes Use of Sony's High-End Technology
I just REALLY hope it stays it’s own thing and doesn’t pull a ‘surprise! It’s FFXVI’. A whole new franchise without fandom baggage is always nice. But either way it looks really cool!
Re: Can You Name These PS2 Games?
Wow i totally forgot about Dark Summit. That and SSX Tricky were some of my favorite games back then.
Re: Viral Social Media Montage Showcases PS4's Impressive Generation
I’ve loved every game from Sony this generation.
While I love to see risks being made, it has been nice to know that when Sony puts a game out, it’s going to be a solid game with polished gameplay and story.

Re: Interview: How Dreams' PSVR Update Empowers Players to Be Even More Creative
This is what I’ve been waiting for since early access. Sad to say I haven’t tried Dreams for more than 30 min yet, maybe this will really get me to explore its creations, VR and non VR
Re: How Well Do You Know Sony's First-Party Studios?
Uncharted Fight For Fortune was cool, wish it was released on mobile or PS3 back in the day as well.
Re: Turok Trophy List Spotted, PS4 Release Likely Incoming
@keihtg I had the same reaction This was my first video game when my parents got me my GameCube because my dad thought the cover looked cool hahaha
Re: Here's Your First Look at Official PS5 Game Box Art
I get they’re going for consistency in branding but I really liked some of PushSquares mockups.
I was never a fan of the box art from 2009 to now. I preferred the OG ps3 box art the best.
Re: Capcom Wants to Know What You Think of Resident Evil Village
I hope they take my feedback and add a boulder punching Easter egg.
Also wish Roger Craig Smith was back as a voice actor :/
Re: With No E3, Square Enix Plans on Showing Individual Games in July and August
@Nem I mean, if you really wanna get technical, the whole series is a continuation of one of Drakengards storylines 😛
But I’m hopefully for a continuation of the Automata storyline.
Similar to COD: Modern Warfare 2. Not COD 6:MW2
Re: PS5 Patent Points to Potential Picture-in-Picture Options
It would be great during collectibles hunting. Always going back and forth from my phone when doing it in uncharted/resident evil.
Re: With No E3, Square Enix Plans on Showing Individual Games in July and August
Nier Automata 2 for PS5
Re: Insomniac Has 'Much of Peter’s Story Left to Tell' for Marvel's Spider-Man 2 on PS5
@Makina I enjoyed Lost Legacy as much as 4. And it was a decently meaty game. Plus was 40$ at launch. Can’t see why it’s a bad thing.
Re: PS5 Is Customisable in Ways Previous Gens Weren't, Will Get Special Editions
I really hope these faceplates are switchable! I do love it as it is tho!
I’ll take a GOW2 collectors edition with Kratos’s face as a faceplate!
Re: Mini Review: The Elder Scrolls Online: Greymoor - Return Trip to Skyrim Is Another Decent Adventure
@ShogunRok thanks! Haha I remember being super overwhelmed with the amount of areas to explore.
Re: Mini Review: The Elder Scrolls Online: Greymoor - Return Trip to Skyrim Is Another Decent Adventure
