@Olmaz So you want Sony to boycott about 95% of all gaming outlets including many non gaming ones that covered it? Okay I guess but that would be Sony giving itself the middle finger
@zhoont I'll buy one as soon as Sony announces at least 1 new game being developed by one of their 20+ studios, that's when you know they are taking this seriously.
Meta has 9 studios that make exclusives for the Quest, why doesn't PSVR2 have at least one studio allocated to it? PlayStation is as popular now as it was during the PS2, if they really wanted to push VR this is the best moment to do it.
@Kanji-Tatsumi It won't, we see it's from the PS blog Spider-man 2 would have won even if it had a 60 metacritic. The Xbox goty will be Starfield over BG3, if you have a chance to give yourself awards why not? ๐คท
@Yaycandy "Id expect our left USA websites to post these. I guess the lefts exist in UK also"
With all the respect in the world you sound like a bigger clown than that face tattoo dufus ๐ why are you bringing up the left or the right wing into a neutral gaming website? Were you commenting on some anti-woke website and accidentally ended up here?
@EfYI "Do not report any leaks and don't report about other news sites reporting. Limit their criminal act by acting like professionals."
This site isn't running on good wishes and fairy dust rainbows ๐ them not reporting on it while every other website does would be unfair to the people running this site that are trying to make a living.
Unless they are getting personal checks from Sony and Insomniac they should be reporting on absolutely everything that's going on in the gaming world, sticking your head in the sand won't help anyone including Insomniac.
@HonestHick If you're going with the PS5 pro that means you will be playing more third party games on it? I know you said you prefer the Xbox controller so maybe you can get one of the third party controllers that switches the joysticks?
Would be a day one for me even though I know is going to be chaos trying to fight the scalpers and other customers, I still think is a battle worth fighting
Is unfair that PlayStation can have unlimited exclusive Marvel games and Xbox is not allowed one! "well Xbox has a small install base so it wouldn't be worth it" good thing it will also release on PC which has a install base bigger then PS5 & Xbox combined!
@Jay767 "Spider man 2 didnโt win anything yeah Iโm done watching theses award shows"
What award would you have given it? It's probably not even going to be goty for any of the PlayStation sites, it's was a fun game to play but very safe
It will be half off within 2 months! Ubisoft's games drop in price faster than any other publisher so even if it was a 10 I would be in no rush to buy it.
"Take the alien exoticism away and youโve got the โUbisoft checklist gameโ"
Pretty much what most people were expecting, some will see it as a positive but for me is a giant negative. I think Black flag was probably the last time Ubisoft innovated, now they just go through the motions and make sure everyone of their games has everything in their checklist.
People saying that it won't look this good have you not seen what they did with Red Dead 2 running on pre historic hardware!? I can definitely see the game looking like this at least for the 30fps mode and them thinning the crowd for 60fps
@KundaliniRising333 Damn dude someone gotta get you to one of those strip clubs shown in the trailer with lots of twerking asap so you can lighten up! ๐
These devs aren't in charge of how long they can milk GTA V for or what they can make next, all those decisions come from the very top. If the execs tell them to work on just GTA online for another 10 years their options are to either do it or find another job
If you're affected by this you are 100% justified (I would argue obligated) in pirating every thing they stole from you, so they can steal from you but you can't take it back? It would not even be stealing imo, you're just taking back what you legally paid for
Worst month of the year for me, maybe if I was a parent the Lego game would have made it worth it. I'm still waiting to see where the extra money they are getting is going towards, moving forward I will just expect garbage and be pleasantly surprised when I get a game I'm interested in.
It seems opinion on RE5 is all over the place here. I'm in the camp that it wasn't a very good Resident Evil game but it was a fantastic, fun, coop action game. Can't wait to see Sheva and that world again in 4K!
That said RE6 is unredeemable and I would prefer they redo every inch of that game, took me months two finish it because the boredom only allowed me to play a few minutes a day
Dude if you use the ignore button you won't have to enter every article's comments section and cry about people crying, I do know that's your shtick here like word up son is for PlayStation1995 (his shtick is better than yours!)
@MrMagic Based on this he should have been dragged out of the building sooner ๐ I'll remember his lovely tenure in PlayStation for his constant push towards mobile, live service and PC market
So season 2 is going be a 1-1 of the game? Well that's disappointing ๐ just like I don't play games to feel depressed and miserable I don't watch shows to feel the same way
Like part I it will all come down to price and/or if there is a chance to upgrade our current copies. If they are charging 70 plus no way to upgrade then they can shove it in the same place that they shoved Naughty Dog's talent
@AdamNovice You know the criticism isn't about releasing a new game, it's that they have been reduced to tlou studio. It seems they don't have it in them to create a new ip like they were known for.
Also Ghost of Tsushima is a brand new ip from 2020 so I'm not sure why you bring it up, it's been a decade since ND flex their creative muscles. At this rate after tlou2 remaster they will release factions then tlou3, tlou4, remake of 2, remaster of 3...
I guess bribing is one way of trying to get interest up but I'm afraid this game will suffer a similar fate to Gotham Knights in that it will be forgotten by the end of release day
@Skeletor85 Maybe because this was a cheap rush job and the games are actually internally running in 720p in 2023? And I would hope there aren't any bugs seen as some of the games were ports made by the great Bluepoint Games! (Wonder what they are up to though ๐)
@Perturbator Hopefully that happens soon ๐ค Marvel is drowning film, shows and games with their properties! I personally prefer everything in moderation, I wouldn't want to eat chocolate sundaes everyday maybe
Is strange that Sony in 2011 was ahead of the curb in releasing the Vita with a beautiful OLED screen, now 2023 they are using cheap outdated LCD panels while Valve and Nintendo are now using OLED
Based on the comparison you would have to have a deep seeded hatred towards the PlayStation stick layout to even consider the Nacon. The no vibration part for PS5 games had me shaking my head in disbelief
@Pimpernel "they saying Res Evil 4 is better Spiderman 2"
It is though that's not even remotely controversial, now the rest of what you said is correct. Re4 should have been Xbox goty too or they should have just picked from PlayStation exclusives
@naruball "For one thing, Switch doesn't have God of War, so there is that."
If you mean Ragnarok why would I want to bore myself on the go ๐ besides if that is your thing you will be able to play both of them on the Steamdeck in the near future!
Definitely not for me, I found it incredibly boring and tedious. I would put Demon's Souls, Returnal, Rift Apart, Spider-man 2, Forbidden West, Ghost of tsushima, Gran Turismo 7, Sackboy ahead of it.
Don't understand all the chest beating in the comments for a very distant (and permanently) second place console. You can combine PlayStation and Xbox and they still wouldn't come anywhere near Nintendo who have no equal in Japan
It's pretty cool having the Horizon studio and TLOU studio also celebrate insomniac's achievement ๐ฅณ they deserve nothing but success as they pump out more quality games in shorter time span than any other studio in the industry
Insane! can they at least update the graphics a bit so it doesn't look like a PS3 game? Also it does have the title for the most fighter packed roster of any Dragon Ball game ever (passing Tenkaichi 3) but that's assuming you opened your entire wallet and bank account
Tekken and Persona are the only things that interests me from that list and I don't buy fighting games till there's a ultimate edition with everything included.
As for Persona I don't plan to pay full price for a Atlus game till they start treating PS owners like they treat Xbox, so is hardly a monster month for me at least
@ztpayne7 Is not that "it has no games" but that Sony themselves are from the look of things not making games for it. Imagine that there were no first party Sony studios (especially the heavy hitters) not making games for the PS5, well that's PSVR2 current reality ๐คท
It blows my mind that Sony has hundreds of games that can use the remaster/remake treatment (Hi Bloodborne!) but instead they are remastering a game that runs at 1440p 60fps and still looks better than a large chunk of PS5 games releasing today ๐
Naughty Dog used to be the most creative and best studio under Sony now they are the most creatively bankrupt, a one trick pony that's only able to create tlou.
I imagine after this remaster they will make tlous 3 then they will make factions, after that they will remaster the first game again and make tlou 4 along with a remaster of the second game again
I do still get a chuckle from hearing recent to the Sony family Bungie going to PlayStation veterans Naughty Dog and telling them "nope dawg this ain't it, go back to the drawing board like now!"
Sony releasing and actual portable device using everything they've learned from the PSP and Vita would absolutely do amazing in Japan. I really wanted them to at least copy the Switch if we can't have a PSP2
