@feral1975 Lock things off? Microsoft OWNS Double Fine lmao

That's why it's getting a next gen upgrade for Xbox but not PlayStation lol. Same reason you won't be seeing Bethesda stuff on PS after GhostWire Tokyo

Probably gonna either play this on Steam since that's where I have the first Psychonauts, or on Game Pass PC. Either way really excited.

@SwittersB Let's not act like Sony is literally doing the same exact thing with stuff like FFVII Remake, FFXVI, Deathloop, GhostWire, Forspoken, Godfall and some indie games

Them being timed doesn't really change that them being on Game Pass is still pretty big in of itself and will secure them some sort of audience out the gate before they come to Sony's platforms

E3 itself wasn't the problem for me this year. Xbox and Nintendo clearly put their best foot forward in regards to the presentations and their presence overall. It's the other companies presence that made the event look way worse in the public view because it felt like they just weren't trying or they were completely tone deaf as to what consumers want out of them, especially Square and Capcom

You don't book a venue like this and not bring the big guns. Yes they could've presented at any other time, as Nintendo does that already with their Directs, but very rarely does the industry come together on scale like this any other time of the year unless it's the Game Awards or some awards season thing, so E3 still has its specialty and place in that regard

I'd stil love to know how we went from Macy's clothing to regal battle armor and mage robes lol

@Floki Spider-Man also does not at all align with the whole "running around in a dark gritty world" thing. Neither does Horizon really

Gran Turismo doesn't even involve running at all

@Floki Sackboy launched with the system and the PS5 came packed in with Astro as well

Even if their heavier narrative stuff is more down to earth and Westernized they aren't completely devoid of lighter franchises. Hell I'm surprised no one brought up Spider-Man on the subject of Insomniac

@nessisonett Can't wait for the final game in the series to star Ratchet as an old man in the post-apocalypse and it's just called "Ratchet"

Another anime arena fighter huh

If you want to make an anime-based fighting game just give it ArcSys lol

Yeah this is definitely getting announced at the Nintendo Direct tomorrow like Panzeer Dragoon Remake last time seeing as how it's a Switch game

@Olmaz Guardians of the Galaxy at least looks pretty promising. I was actually kind of surprised at the Square conference yesterday

@nessisonett The 3 Remake which originally was on DS actually did come to PSP in like 2010 or 2011 but to my knowledge this is the first time they're specifically bringing over the original NES non-3D version of III to the West at all

They're probably updating the existing mobile and PC versions of these games, especially considering they also just updated the listing of FF3 and 4 on mobile to say "3D Remake" to distinguish it from these upcoming remasters which are closer to the original NES titles

It really sucks that they're not getting the console treatment like VII-XII did but it is what it is

@Orpheus79V People think it looks bad? I think the visual overhaul is actually really good considering Colors was already in contention for best looking game on the Wii

I think Sonic's model looks a bit too reminiscent of his Smash Ultimate appearance but all the assets and backgrounds look pretty stunning on current hardware

The jump to current gen consoles from the Wii is extremely prevalent here

I'll probably get this on PS5 since 60fps is a must for a game like this and it being EGS-only on PC means barebones mod support which is a major turn off since I usually love loading up mods in games like Generations and SA1 & 2 on Steam

@eagletrippin Phil Spencer literally just congratulated Insomniac for Ratchet & Clank being met with appraisal and has previously congratulated Sony for stuff like the PS5 launch

The voiceovers were so goddamn awful lol

Honestly kind of expected from Platinum though

Listen PushSquare, I get that the first game was multiplatform and all but like this isn't even news

You don't have to break the news everytime a Microsoft-owned studio announces a game that (shocker) is exclusive to Xbox no matter if they made games for PS before or not

It's clearly meant to generate some sort of reaction from people on this site who primarily play PS games and even though it sucks for those who only game on PS, they're also a Microsoft-owned and operated studio so like...what was the expectation? Microsoft obviously wasn't going to put this on platforms they're in obvious contention with

Like damn Starfield and Outer Worlds from the Microsoft-owned Bethesda Game Studios and Obsidian Entertainment aren't coming to anything but Microsoft's Xbox and the Microsoft Store (and Steam) on PC? "Somebody call CNN"

Why would they put the FF Collection on just Steam and mobile

Like I get Steam but you literally put the FFVII-XII remasters on PC AND consoles

This actually looks...not bad?

Like a solid game that's already made a stronger impression on me than Avengers did?

Welp, that was anti-climactic

Guess we didn't "SAVE MMMARTHHAAAA"

I thought this was supposed to be "only possible on next-gen"

NO WII VERSION, NO BUY

I would've been interested in an announcement like this around maybe 2010 or 2011 when it felt like Avatar was still a big thing

Spider-Man levels of hype this ain't

All these next gen Ubisoft announcements and the game of the show was still the one with cross-bred Luma Rabbids

@Floki Oh yeah

How can I possibly forget about Just Dance

@Floki Yeah wasn't Mario + Rabbids like the only Switch game they showed?

Avatar looks fine but no gameplay

I'm actually really excited about Mario + Rabbids though I shiver at the thought of Rabbid/Luma cross breeding

The Vaas expansion in Far Cry 6 looked pretty neat as someone who thought the most engaging of that series was Far Cry 3 partially because of Vaas

yeah that's basically it this was a total slog.

@Tharsman Well abandoning The Order imo was a good choice considering that game in particular is like the prime example I think of when it comes to the critique of PlayStation exclusives being "walking simulators"

It really is just a nice looking movie with QTEs

Resistance I think was concluded at Insomniac's behest considering I think they said 3 was always meant to be the last one

They need someone else handling their PR just saying

Pretty much everything he's said has been contradicted by fan reception or other moves they've made in terms of software

If Sony actually gets good mobile content and ties it in with having a Trophy system that connects to your PlayStation consoles I'll actually be pretty interested

Meanwhile on Switch eShop

"YO DAWG I HEARD YOU LIKE SHOVELWARE"

I guess it got delayed so much the exclusivity period accidentally ran out for Switch lol

Man Sony's been allying with a lot of up and coming developers as of late haven't they? Pretty smart win win scenario for both the developer looking to gain exposure and resources, and Sony looking for some good exclusive content to add to their library

That horse straight up Hulk jumped over a mountain

This looks so goddamn good. Been a Tales player since Symphonia

As a university student right now, the last thing I want to do is learn how to run one because I'm already suffering as is.

No thanks

With the way the trailer was going I was honestly waiting for Snake to walk into the frame while Sam was chilling in the box

That whole trailer seemed very intentionally framed like an MGS homage

@PeakUnagi I ain't holding my breath for that much since that would also probably require Marvel to license out that stuff

Insomniac may have created that version of Spider-Man but as far as we know it looks like Marvel retains complete control over those games

Sunset Overdrive was legit one of Insomniac's best games. Probably the only other Xbox One exclusive I was interested in outside Killer Instinct before both came to PC

I'd love for the game to get a sequel or at least a PS5 remaster with added features

My first game was Tools of Destruction on PS3. From there I played all the entries on there and ended up picking up the Collection of the PS2 entries on Vita later

Really solid platformer series all around.

This sounds really cool but XCOM games are also extremely methodical and I can't imagine an RTS game would do a super great job of showcasing specific powers and be super interesting visually unless the art direction is just really creative

@nessisonett Considering how wildly successful the PS4 was I doubt big third party support is abandoning the platform for a good few years, similar to how the 3DS got an additional two and a half years of notable third party support even after the Switch came out, or how the PS2 became a safe haven for sports sims all the way until 2013

@KidBoruto Nah it's probably more to do with the whole Smart Delivery thing since that would mean there wouldn't have to be a discrete next gen version for it unlike Sony's platform with how backwards compatibility works

Apparently it'll play at 4K/60fps on PS5 as well according to the website

@gollumb82 Considering none of the Marvel/Capcom fighting games like MvC, X-Men Children of the Atom or X-Men vs. Street Fighter are here either, I don't even think they approached Marvel at all for licensing those games or Punisher out

It's a shame but it's more cost effective that way

Open world Sonic sounds cool but I'm not at THAT level of trust with Sonic Team yet lol

@nessisonett It's like those people who spell Spider-Man as either "Spider Man" or "Spiderman"

Probably at the very least, PS4, PS5, Switch and PC

Maybe Xbox as well since now they're really starting to push Dragon Quest on stuff like Game Pass
