I'm partially interested, but do take note that this game does not have native PS5 support. It's just dynamic resolution that has a more stable performance on PS5. So no optimized loading times, ray-tracing, visual upgrades (other than resolution boost) and no DualSense haptic feedback support.

No disc with the steelbook is like selling a comb to a bald man.

I need a physical PlayStation version...

That's good to know. Hope the same is true for the sequel.

If we get a new updated VR version, with analogue sticks for PSVR2, that's when I'll buy it again.

@ShogunRok
So far i know about the following upgrades in the PS5 Director's cut: Higher Resolution / Higher Framerate / Better loading times & Japanese Lip Sync. Are there any other (graphical) improvements compared to the PS4 version? E.g. Ray-Tracing or better lighting etc?

@nessisonett
Exactly this! Plus PSVR support for a ultimate trucker experience!

@Angelus3K
You're right. This also means no haptic feedback.
It's still a PS4 game with improvements to benefit from while playing on PS5.

I've been waiting for this for years! Instabuy!.

Must have! I hope that there's more stealth involved than the movie type action set pieces they show in the trailer!

I like what they've showed so far! This will definitely come to my collection!

No single player campaign means no buy for me.

1. Vaas
2. Min
3. Seed

Could depend on the order you played the games though. Vaas is the OG. The others were trying to recapture Vaas's energy after they say how the audience reacted to him.

Yow Insomniac, why spoil this so shortly for release? Would have been a hell of a surprise if they would let gamers find this out by themselves while playing the game.
It's like telling someone what their birthday present will be just a few days before their birthday.
Honestly, i don't like this at all

I once saw a video from the developer, praising the PS5 SSD. And how they originally wanted flying mountable creatures in the first game. But it wasn't possible because of the load speeds on the PS4 PRO. And how they finally were able to (hypothetically) do stuff like that on PS5 because of the SSD. Wondering if this will still be in the game

So we'll get the remastered graphics for free and have to pay for the retro graphics. How the tables have turned 😆

I'll just post this as a last comment in this discussion and I'll leave it at that 😉

It's a game about riding mechanical dinosaurs. If you want realism she would be staying at her tribe picking berries and raising kids, waiting for her man to return from the hunt in that world.

But to be clear and as I stated before. I don't care how she looks. But I do think it's weird when they change an established character's looks. Same as they did with Spider-Man remaster.
It's not about how they look, it's that we want consistency.

@BadPlayerOne
You're stating the problem backwards. It's not us body and face shaming a digital character. The developers did this by deciding the way she looked before is no longer acceptable.
And again, it's not the chubbiness that's a problem. It's the fact that she wasn't in the previous games. Especially when there's only supposed to be six months between the previous game and this one.
She doesn't have to be sexualised (or a bimbo as someone mentioned). She wasn't in the previous game and looked just fine!
Some of my all star favourite movies have female lead characters in them that aren't considered "sexy" by the beauty standard of today (Terminator/Aliens). That's not the point we're making. Changing characters for no reason (other than social or political) doesn't feel right to me. Especially when we're talking about established (fantasy) characters and that's the problem I see.
It wouldn't stop me from buying this game but it's just weird and feels forced.
And do I even dare to say that you don't see such discussions with male characters? We don't all look like Marcus Phoenix, Nathan Drake or Duke Nukem to name a few iconic male characters

To be fair, she does look different. The chubbier face makes her look older and doesn't fit with the rest of her still skinny body type.
The chubbiness isn't the problem really, it's the fact that she wasn't chubby in the previous game.
We're talking about fictional characters who rides mechanical robots! Is realism really necessary here?
It's like making a new God of War game and giving Kratos a Dad bod because we're afraid some men feel insecure about his muscular body type.

I want it now!!! Also, that Turtles game they're working on looks amazing,!

Good question. Probably have to wait for Digital Foundry to do a comparison. But I can confirm that the game is not a native PS5 game/upgrade. So the improvements are not as big as it would be I the developer would have released a full blown PS5 upgrade/patch.
They made it clear that we don't need to expect that to appear.
So it's the PS5's native power that improves the experience of this PS4 game.

@ShogunRok
Shame. But the trilogy is worth it.

Do you need to install all 3 games at the same time to be able to play the game?
It's over 110 GB in EU and need double that space in order to be able to install updates. It's quite a hit on my already filled PS5 storage space.
(Because of a national holiday, the game will be mailed to me tomorrow instead of today.)

Coming June 1st, says the trailer....

I'll wait for the NVMe SSD slot to be activated.

They can always straight up buy the dedicated PS5 version, right?
Complaining about free games seems stupid to me.

I'm wondering how many of these people complaining actually do own a PS5 + the game in question.

Only digital? I like physical PS5 games.

Hitman 3 new PSVR controller patch please.

@BranJ0
If you havn't played this trilogy at all, man i'm kinda jealous.
You definitly need to check these out. I don't know what type of player you are, but as @Bagwag82 said. Take your time and explore. Some side missions are more satisying than main mission. And the side-missions are completly optional. So is exploring a lot of different planets. (Although, most planets have just a small patch to explore, so keep your expectation in check when you view the space map with dozens of planets you can visit ).

And the bonding with your crew and other NPC's is optional. But when you really invest time into talking to them you can get some deep friendships and hear their backstories, thoughts and motivations.

I think at least 50% of what i enjoyed most about this game was just the talking and trying to help people like i'm some kind of young bad ass versions of Star Trek's Picard with guns.

Especially after each main misison. When you're back on the bridge of your ship, walk around and talk to all your cremembers (or no one, it's really up to you) because these unique conversations between missions can build a lot of character development and hear their thoughts on what just happend. These dialogues are completely missable if you just go straight to the next main mission but will introduce new branching paths for friendships or romances later on when you engange with your crew.

All i can say is just don't focus too much on getting to your destination. Enjoy the ride and take your time.

What about that Humanity PSVR game?

@zettaibaka
I don't want to spoil things so i won't go into details, but i think i can relate a bit to @BranJ0's post.

The main unique selling point of the whole Mass Effect Trilogy was that your choices matter and have big consequences for the following game. It was one of the first triple AAA games that used this mechanic so well and let you import your save game which forwarded your choices. Things like your crew setup, who lived and died all carried through the entire trilogy and were actually intertwined with the story! So there was a major build-up to some grandiose finale based on your individual choices which never got fulfilled.

Especially frustrating if you tried to let everyone survive in all 3 games and always get the most positive outcome in moments where you have a choice. Where even side missions can have big consequences like deciding the fate of entire species, if you let them live or wipe them all out. It sometimes took hours and hours of exploration and planet hopping to even find these side-missions.

It's more like If someone were planning to go on a long, wonderful vacation in the Maldives, idyllic sandy beaches, crystal clear water, but then you actually break your leg on your way to the airport so you won't get get to go after all and won't get what you were hoping to get. Sure, the build-up to the trip was still nice, but the whole thing still leaves a bad taste in your mouth. (Kinda like the ending for Game of Thrones.)

I know i exaggerated a bit but this is how it felt for some players. The fact that they had to make extra DLC to alter the ending because of the backlash it received is actually quite telling how most players felt.

Having said that i truly enjoyed these games even with the original ending. But i can understand the people who didn't.

@Juanalf
The developer even mentioned somewhere that they did consider targetting the next-gen consoles, but that they felt the graphical upgrade they achieved wouldn't match the feeling of a "next-gen game". That's the reason why they decided to skip PS5 / XSX. Maybe someone can quote the exact phrase but it was something like that.

I don't want to sound negative but the PR around this remaster feels like 50% apologies and reasons why they couldn't do something and i don't like that. It's like they're preparing us to not get our expectations too high for the end result.
I'm referring to the cut multiplayer, missing DLC, no next-gen version and not even a next-gen optimization patch and stating they're not planning to release one.

This has me worried that it'll feel like a quick cash grab instead of a "Legendary Remaster Edition".
Maybe i'm just being overly critical because i love the original trilogy so much.

As a PS5 owner, the lack of a PS5 version and officially stating that there is no PS5 patch and they're not planning to release one is beyond me. This is holding me back from buying this game on release. I'll wait for the re reviews.
The last remaster from EA (Need for Speed Hot Pursuit) was lackluster. It was basically the PC version ported to consoles.

It looks great, but hoping the controls will feel intuitive while running and shooting in this fast paced game.

I think it will release whenever Sony has a new sizable batch of PS5 consoles to send into the world. What good is releasing a PS5 exclusive game when you can't find a console to play it on. Releasing it now will mean the hype has died before people get a chance to buy a PS5. You want to use this game to boost PS5 sales so it's logical to release it whenever consoles are easier to find.

@Futureshark
They've just declined my request for a refund. Bought it on January 8th and didn't download it yet. The reason to decline my requesr was that I bought it more than 14 days ago.

@danlk1ng
Hope so, just dropped a support ticket with a request for refund.
Bought it on January 8th and been waiting for the free PS5 upgrade, havn't download or played it.

I just bought Control: Ultimate Edition last month during a sale especially for PS5...

Will PS5 version get a demo too?

@Mysterio
It is in the Netherlands. And it's a PSVR game as well.

Is this franchise like the Soul's games?
Never played it. Might be cool on my PS5 with improved performance.

@theMEGAniggle
All three: https://youtu.be/38zt4AR5wl8

@get2sammyb
That's true. And at least I have the option to install the PS4/PSVR version on my external drive, so I'll be fine.. I think it's going to be huge (no pun intended) to play the entire trilogy in first person VR! Can't wait!

That's still 200GB if you plan to play the PSVR version + PS5 version, since only the PS4 version supports PSVR. But I'll take it. Already placed my pre-order.

Now that I got the console in home since launch, I kinda like the white. I might try the black plates, but then I'll probably get annoyed that the controller, charge station, PSVR headset, 3D Pulse and media remote are still white, lol. The white console looks rather good (better than you might think) with all those other white peripherals combined.

@Darylb88
I see they have the PS4 version cheap. But does it work on PS5 as well?
The PSN store has a separate Watch Dogs Legion PS4 Season Pass and a Watch Dogs Legion PS4/PS5 Season Pass, which is kinda confusing.
-Edit-
Just bought it since the Ubisoft website states: "All additional digital content that you’ve unlocked on your PlayStation Network account for your eligible Ubisoft games on PlayStation 4 will transfer to the PlayStation 5. The additional digital content included in this offering is: Pre-Order Offers, Bonus Content (Example: Season Pass, Ultimate Edition Content), Digital Content Purchased on the PlayStation Store, Digital Content Purchased on the In-Game Store, Ubisoft Club Rewards, Additional ULC Unlocked with Redemption Codes"

After entering the code my PS5 tells me i own the PS4 Season Pass, which gave me a scare. However the PS5 Season Pass is now free to download, and i succesfully claimed the PS5 Season Pass !

Watch Dogs Legion Season Pass please
