No real incentive to play since the only character I'm interested in you can't get until almost the end of the campaign. Also, the crappy shadows in caves and bunkers that make it so you can't even see half the screen at times really detract from the good gunplay.
Not even trying the beta since I unsubbed from PS+. Initially linking the beta to preorders was a rookie mistake. The beta should have been planned as a PS+ perk all along to maximize feedback and prevent any impression that preorders are low, which we can now presume.
Sony needed to bring first-party games and third parties needed something besides shooters and horror games to vet me to upgrade from PSVR. Wipeout and Rez are still the best games for me ¯(ツ)/¯
No Windows computers here and have always been a console gamer. Don't mind other folks getting to play these games (and funding more). It's silly to think PSN accounts weren't going to happen though, as most large publishers do this.
I've been looking forward to this as I love HK but since I don't have PS+ I may have to pass if the game breaks as a result or is heavily built around social BS that I have no interest in.
Both PSN and the eShop fail at some pretty basic e-commerce practices. Recommending games you already own (LOL) or games in genres you never buy, crappy search, etc.
Will try Aliens since it's on the console that's only 3 years old instead of the one that's 10. My last month as a subscriber because of the 35% price increase. Also, Canada exists and will get these when "The USA will gain access later today".
No worries. I always play these in Japanese. Will make sure not to update, since using the voice of someone with terrible delivery was a bad idea anyway.

Re: Massive Baldur's Gate 3 Patch 7 Detailed, Dev Confirms More Updates Are Planned
Will wait for the update and a price drop since Windows players got deluxe content for free.

Trying to, between crashes.
Zenless Zone Zero saving the day though...
Re: Next Gran Turismo 7 PS5, PS4 Update Could Be a Big One
I sure hope so!
Re: Next Gran Turismo 7 PS5, PS4 Update Could Be a Big One
No sale until there's offline single player so it can't be killed like The Crew.
Re: Sony Is Allegedly Pulling PSVR2 Funding, Report Claims
Sony needed to bring first-party games and third parties needed something besides shooters and horror games to vet me to upgrade from PSVR. Wipeout and Rez are still the best games for me ¯(ツ)/¯
Re: Afterlove EP, from the Late Creator of Coffee Talk, Targeting October Release on PS5, PS4
I'm so glad this is finally getting released.
All props to the team.

Hahaha! Now all the YouTubers who made stinkfaces about this will suddenly love it!
Re: The Next Naughty Dog Game Its 'Most Thrilling Yet', Says Neil Druckmann
Haha... Someone please tell Sony that the plural for more than one artistic medium is the word "media", not mediums LOL
Re: The Next Naughty Dog Game Its 'Most Thrilling Yet', Says Neil Druckmann
@Nepp67
True.
Most good art is.
Re: Atari's Revived Racer NeoSprint Revs Up a June Release Date on PS5, PS4
This is a smart way to reboot this. Hopefully it has some of the same cool sound effects.
Re: Sony Committed to Better First-Party Games, 'Richer' Experiences, More PS5 Users
Astro will be most welcome. I hope we see Barlog's new game soon.
Re: Sony: The Future Is Incredibly Bright for PlayStation
Nice to see.
It's certainly better than making liars of your exec team and throwing them under the bus.

Re: PS Store Sales Charts: Stellar Blade Loses Out to Sea of Thieves in Europe, Helldivers 2 Is Still King in US
I guess Rare will get closed next.
Re: Mark Hamill Reprises Role as The Joker for MultiVersus on PS5, PS4
I'm curious if there will be backlash for him hanging out with genocide joe.
Re: Review Bombers Were Even Attacking Other Games Made by Helldivers 2 Dev
PC "Master Race" of immature snowflakes.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Final Fantasy 16: The Rising Tide?
@Martijn87
I'm with you.
There wasn't dlc planned originally so that makes it seem even more forced / a money grab to me.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Final Fantasy 16: The Rising Tide?
Nope.
It doesn't make sense, given how the main game ends.
Re: Fallout 4 PS5 Version Out 25th April with New Modes and Content
I'll check out the new quest since I have no backlog currently but I wouldn't have paid for this so I'm glad it's free.
Re: Xbox Planning to Release the 'Majority' of Its Exclusives on PS5
Long time coming.
Re: On Top of Character DLC and Microtransactions, Tekken 8 Is Now Getting a Premium Battle Pass
Adding this post-release is shady.

Good to hear.
It reminds me of having mods on UT3 on PS3, good times!
Re: Updated PS5 Explore Page Adds New Features, Backgrounds
Ugh. I hope this stays only in the US.
Re: Legendary PlayStation First-Party Architect Connie Booth Joins EA
Seems good for BioWare.
Dragon Age needs to be good and they seem to need help.
Re: PS5 Follow-Up Read Only Memories: Neurodiver Finally Out This May
Looking forward to this.
Day one for me!
Re: Sony's London Studio, Media Molecule Were Reportedly 'Highest on the List' for Closure
No surprise with either.
More Tearaway please.
Re: Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown Will Require an Internet Connection on PS5
@pharos_haven
We need a new, proper Ridge Racer so badly!
Re: Test Drive Unlimited: Solar Crown Will Require an Internet Connection on PS5
I've been looking forward to this as I love HK but since I don't have PS+ I may have to pass if the game breaks as a result or is heavily built around social BS that I have no interest in.
Re: Feature: Indie Publisher Neon Doctrine on the Importance of Culture and Improvements to the PS Store
Both PSN and the eShop fail at some pretty basic e-commerce practices.
Recommending games you already own (LOL) or games in genres you never buy, crappy search, etc.
Re: Rumour: Astro Bot Will Return for Another PS5 Rescue Mission This Year
It's sad how bad people's reading comprehension is now.
Re: Poll: How Do You Feel About All of the Xbox Multiplatform Rumours?
I would buy Starfield used on disc and that's about it. No money for MS here.
Re: Stellar Blade's Japanese Dub Won't Be Available Worldwide, But Korean Will Be
This might just be the first game I play in Korean. Looks good so far.
Re: There Are More People Playing PS5, PS4 Than Ever Before
PS4 is still hanging in there.
Ichi! Ni! San!
Re: Preview: Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth Is the First PS5 Must-Play of 2024
Not playing it in the near term since I don't subsidize game pass.
Re: Here's Another 20 Minutes of Fantastic Granblue Fantasy: Relink PS5 Gameplay
Looking forward to it and hopefully Soriz shows up at some point.
Re: Like a Dragon Gaiden's Controversial English Dub Is Selectable on PS5, PS4 Now
Glad I'm not the only person who thinks this was a stupid idea. Yong Nope.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for December 2023?
Sable is good but I already have it.
Today is my last day of PS+!

Re: No, PlayStation Japan Isn't Teasing Some Big Announcement for This Week

Re: Baldur's Gate 3 Dominates Golden Joystick Awards, Wins Game of the Year
RE4 should have won "best remake"
Spidey(s) got robbed.
Re: Three New PS Plus Essential Games Can Be Downloaded Now on PS5, PS4
Will try Aliens since it's on the console that's only 3 years old instead of the one that's 10.
My last month as a subscriber because of the 35% price increase.
Also, Canada exists and will get these when "The USA will gain access later today".
Re: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's First PS5, PS4 Campaign Review Is a Massacre
Game Pass building its legacy.
Re: Game Director of The Last of Us' PS5 Multiplayer Project Says He's Still Working on It
I figure the game is mostly done but it's the longer term engagement and business model that needs work.
Re: The Finals Opted for AI Voices Because 'It Gets Us Far Enough in Terms of Quality'
No thanks.
Taking Arc Raiders off my wishlist as well.
Re: Like a Dragon: Gaiden Won't Have an English Dub on PS5, PS4 At Launch
No worries. I always play these in Japanese.
Will make sure not to update, since using the voice of someone with terrible delivery was a bad idea anyway.
Re: The Last of Us Multiplayer's Microtransactions Man Has Left Naughty Dog
Maybe his work was done since he wasn't part of the recent layoff.
