@z0d15g0d It's actually a good thing that these ports have been so good so sony can make more money to make more games. The trade off is that PS5 players don't need to spend 2-3k on a PC and deal with Windows.
Here's hoping that the "remaster via asset swapping" patent is at play here - as an option. Jim would do well to use the launch to poke some fun at himself for the GT2 comment he made a few years ago.
1,2,3 is how the original PS was marketed in Japan because it launched on 12/3. Push square should know this stuff. This is a lot of effort to tease an ad. Just sayin'.
P5S and Dirt 5 were two of my favourite games last year so it's a great month, even though I have them already. Not too interested in DRG but it seems like something a lot of folks will "dig" (not sorry).
@The_New_Butler I played these years ago and don't intend to again so I'm not looking for an upgrade. These games could be patched to get some upgrades but these are remasters though, and also being ported to windows. That's different and to me that means probable engine and asset changes that wouldn't be possible on PS5 with just a patch. Do I think a free patch would make some people happy? Sure. Do I think it's a realistic expectation or business decision? Nope. Peace.
My goto no-brainer suggestion is that, as each game becomes eligible to be a "Greatest Hits" title, it goes on PS+ a month or two beforehand. We should have access to all the greatest hits, right?
I'll likely give Hunter's Arena a try at least and I was tempted to buy Tennis World Tour previously but didn't so I'm ok with these even though I can see a lot of people being less than enthusiastic.
Just a quick thanks to all of these devs and also the ones that tried and couldn't make the deadline. It's the last trip to Vita Island, but it's a good one. Cheers!
Looking forward to a plague tale and a bit of solo black ops. WWE games are the kind of thing to have a bestie over and play drunk for laughs. All good.
@Col_McCafferty Was looking forward to TES 6. The only way I'll play it now is via GeForce Now after it's free on Steam or Epic stores (no Windows or Xboxes here)

Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Essential Games for October 2023?
I doubt I'll ever download any of these.
I'm letting my subscription run out because of the 33% price increase.
Re: Jim Ryan Praises PlayStation Home for Being '10-15 Years Ahead of Its Time'
Home was ahead of its time and very lgbt+
I still have PS friends from there.
Should have been on PS4 already.
Re: Rumour: PS Plus Essential Games for October Leaked
My subscription runs out in December because of the price increase. I know I won't even try either of these.
Re: Looter Shooter Sequel The Division 3 Casually Confirmed by Ubisoft
Probably up for it as long as I still get to have a drone ; )
Re: CDPR Recommends a Fresh Save for the Best Cyberpunk 2077 2.0, Phantom Liberty Experience
I'm done the main story, so I'll do some of the side quests to check out the changes before I get Phantom Liberty.
Re: Experience 'Severe Abdominal Wounds' with Official Assassin's Creed Mirage Haptic Feedback Suit for PS5, PS4
I might be in if it works with Rez

You forgot TM: Black, the best one!
Re: Reaction: What Happens to PlayStation if Microsoft Buys Activision Blizzard?
It will be interesting to see what game pass does to CoD sales.
Hopefully Sony finally makes a new Killzone or SOCOM.
Re: There's Already Concern Over Crash Team Rumble's Future
No money for Bobby Toxick here.
Re: PS Plus Essential Games for July 2023 Leaked Early
Damn! I might play all three!
Re: Fairgame$ May Be Sony's Most Tone Deaf PS5, PC Title to Date
I think you might be giving this game more attention than it deserves.
It obviously isn't for everyone so, as always, vote with your money folks!
Re: God of War Dev Is Working on Something Inspirational
Hopefully something really different before Atreus gets his own game(s).
Re: Sony and LeBron James Join Forces with Limited Edition PS5 Accessories
It's pretty ballsy to have that slogan when clearly ripping off Basquiat.
Re: SSX Isn't Coming Back, So Shredders Is Your Best Snowboarding Bet
It's on gamepass so I can wait for it on PS+
Re: God of War Ragnarok PS5, PS4 Spoilers Rife As Retailers Break Street Date
Ask Sony why they sent it to retail this early
Re: Sony Seemingly Scraps PS Plus Game Expiry Dates
Don't games leave on the monthly refresh date???
Re: Sony Gates Customer Service Priority Behind New PS Stars Program
This sounds like something that will be illegal in Canada under various pieces of legislation.
Re: Sony Expects More PS5 Owners to Wishlist Games When They're Announced
Can't browse the store... too many jumping crap turbo games in the way.
Re: Mini Review: Lake (PS5) - Mail Sim Stuck Between First and Second Class
Was hoping there was more to this.
Also, it's palate.

Re: Poll: Which PS Plus Tier Are You Subscribed To?
Will likely upgrade to Extra once the timing of first-party game additions is established.
Re: PS3 Emulation Allegedly in Production for PS5
How much did Nintendo say about N64 on Switch again?
Re: PS Plus Premium's Classic Games Look 'Great' on PS5, PS4, But Sony's Saying Nothing About the Selection
Here's hoping that the "remaster via asset swapping" patent is at play here - as an option.
Jim would do well to use the launch to poke some fun at himself for the GT2 comment he made a few years ago.

P4G though... ^_^
Re: Fans Thought PlayStation Was Teasing PS1, PS2, PS3 Backwards Compatibility, But It's Just a New Ad
1,2,3 is how the original PS was marketed in Japan because it launched on 12/3. Push square should know this stuff. This is a lot of effort to tease an ad. Just sayin'.
Re: Will Call of Duty and Other Activision Blizzard Games Come to PS5, PS4?
I don't buy from either company so no change here.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Games for January 2022?
P5S and Dirt 5 were two of my favourite games last year so it's a great month, even though I have them already. Not too interested in DRG but it seems like something a lot of folks will "dig" (not sorry).
Re: Poll: Did You Buy Call of Duty: Vanguard?
No to Tencent
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for November 2021?
I knew we'd get Amalur eventually.
Re: Poll: Did You Buy Deathloop?
That first paragraph says it all. Way too hard sell. If I was interested, I'd buy it used since I have no money for M$.
Re: GTA 5 Fans Are Not Happy with Expanded & Enhanced's PS5 Reveal
I'm curious why they even bothered with the single player game when all they really care about is GTA Online

Re: Fans Ponder Whether There's an Upgrade Path for Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection on PS5
These games are 4 and 5 years old.
Stop expecting everything for free.
Re: God of War Creator Says First-Party Games Will Be at PlayStation Showcase 'With Flying Colours'
Lol David Jaffe trying to be relevant.

Re: PS Plus August 2021 PS5, PS4 Games Leaked by Sony

Re: New PS Vita Releases Pegged for 20th July as Sony Ceases Submissions
Just a quick thanks to all of these devs and also the ones that tried and couldn't make the deadline. It's the last trip to Vita Island, but it's a good one. Cheers!

Re: Rumour: PS Plus June 2021 Line-Up Leaked Ahead of Time
Damn! Hope this is true! Great lineup!
Re: Epic Games Offered Sony $200 Million to Bring PS5, PS4 Exclusives to Its Store
I still don't understand why sony is spending time and money porting these games instead of promoting access to them through PSNow.
Re: Housemarque Acknowledges Request for Mid-Run Saves in Returnal
Not even considering a purchase until this gets added
Re: Housemarque Thanks Sony for Supporting the 'Very Risky' Returnal
#ArcadeIsDead came after Matterfall had a terrible launch. Glad to see Returnal getting good reviews, even though it's not my thing.
