@Orpheus79V the "original gameplay" disclaimer and the fact they said they had more to reveal about the collection at a later time makes me think they're not ready to show Sonic 3 & Knuckles running in the Retro Engine like the other 3 games. Maybe when that's all sorted out they'll come out with a big trailer showing all the games looking as they're supposed to.
Sonic 1, 2 and CD seem to all be based on the Taxman remasters, of which 1 & 2 are currently only available on mobile. Hope S3&K gets the same treatment.
Not the Sonic game I would've wanted remastered or remade personally speaking
It's cool that PlayStation and Xbox are finally getting this but I just think in terms of the Boost games Generations and even Unleashed to a certain extent are far better
There's just something super vanilla and Mario-esque about how this plays. Looks pretty amazing for a Wii game though
@nessisonett Honestly I actually kinda liked Devil all the Time and even though Cherry left me heavily mixed, Holland's performance was actually really good for the material he was provided.
Chaos Walking was about as much of a disaster as I expected with how long that film spent in development hell
Honestly I tend not to judge movies based on stills or 2 minute trailers.
This is an out of context picture from a scene in the film and we have no idea when it takes place or its significance in the plot
I'm not the biggest fan of either Holland or Wahlberg's castings in these roles even if I think they're great actors, but I'm not jumping the gun on stuff like this. I need to see tangible footage first. I'm also surprisingly not that bothered by Sully not having his mustache and for me it's not going to make this movie crash and burn or raise red flags or anything
I am concerned about the choice of director, mostly because Ruben Fleischer imo hasn't made a good non-Zombieland related movie and I just didn't really like Venom outside of the chemistry between Eddie and the symbiote.
The titling makes it sound very "FF1 remake"-y but I definitely wasn't expecting this.
I wonder if it'll follow the Warriors of Light or if it's a new story in the FF1 world. Nioh is an action-RPG but also very different from what you'd expect out of one with the FF name.
@nessisonett Honestly if it weren't for my boy Taskmaster being in it I probably would've skipped it. I'm glad out of the current slate it's the one getting a simultaneous Disney+ launch because it's the only one out of the lineup I wouldn't be bothered to see in theaters
@suikoden You know what I can actually let Dante as paid DLC slide because they probably needed to get back in touch with Capcom to even get that to happen in the first place and some royalties probably had to be paid as a result of Atlus not owning the character rights
Everything else is inexcusable but I can understand the licensing jargon behind Dante, especially since it looks like they also got Rueben Langdon to re-record all the original dubbed dialogue from the English PS2 version
I'd be so down for that. Especially if they let you do things like have custom engravings on your controller or being able to customize stuff like if your buttons are colored or single-tone, or the color of your touchpad and light bar
Honestly even though I didn't love Days Gone at all I might get this on PC to have something pretty to look at because Sony seems to have gone all out on the extra performance tweaks and features here
I might never use Discord on the console itself but honestly this is a much better alternative to some of the social options they had on PS4 like Communities imo
@Rob_230 The demand for Switch ports definitely is more Western-centric compared to Japan. Joker being in Smash definitely exposed a lot of English speakers to the series who previously never heard of it or Megami Tensei, so most of the outcry for Switch or even PC versions of these games definitely came from English-speaking audiences
Despite the story playing it incredibly safe, the game itself surprised me through and through with how closely faithful it was to what made turn based Persona so much fun with a more visceral sense of style thanks to it all being real-time
Definitely deserved. I intend on picking it up for PS4 now that my PS5 has come in but I played it first on PC and it was definitely worth it
@Spiders MvCI's emphasis on characters relevant in the movies really destroyed any semblance of diversity. Especially given this franchise wouldn't be what it was without X-Men Children of the Atom and X-Men vs. Street Fighter, omitting them felt like a giant slap in the face to the legacy of the series, and it was all because they were among the characters Disney didn't have control over regarding the movies
@chicken_chaser I think the Demon's Souls thing was retracted since it said "not available on other consoles and PC for a limited time" as if it was just a timed exclusive that could come to a competing console like Xbox
I'm pretty sure the Demon's Souls trailer was re-uploaded with that entire byline removed so it's still billed as a pure PS5 exclusive
This is really confusing as an approach to movie streaming considering they literally just struck those deals with Netflix and Disney+ to serve as hubs for streaming their upcoming movies
Honestly interesting that the review score here seems to be lower than it was on PureXbox
Maybe just the wow factor of this game coming to Xbox at all slightly gave leverage to that site's scoring, since it sounds like a par-for-the-course thing for the series here
Lmao you REALLY have to rub it in that people on PlayStation have to pay full price for it
Here's the thing though
It's still being released at full price on Series X, and at some point, it's probably going to leave Game Pass especially given how much Xbox likely had to pay for an MLB-published game that was at the end of the day, developed by Sony themselves. I wager it'll probably even leave before year's end. After that, Xbox owners will have to pay up like everyone else anyway so no use complaining about it. It's not like paying monthly for a subscription to play the game until it goes out of the service for an entire year cancels out paying a one time full price to keep the game for good
@Kang81 An Anniversary Collection 2 with either the Igavanias or the 3D games like CV64, Legacy of Darkness, Lament of Innocence, Curse of Darkness and the Lords of Shadow duology seems like the likliest outcome to me
Konami phrased the first Anniversary Collection as if there were going to be more after it
Rising really needs a remaster. I don't care if it "spits in the face of what made Metal Gear Metal Gear" or whatever some people say about it. It's just a fun as hell game
@HotGoomba Honestly if they made Spider-Man Remastered free on the PS5 store I would be so happy that I could potentially save money when I get around to buying PS5 games for my console after my finals since I can just get Demon's Souls and regular Miles Morales
@The_New_Butler Just like Sony announcing they parted ways with Marvel Studios on producing Spider-Man films surely was never a pre-calculated decision that they weren't aware would receive major backlash
Even though this shouldn't have happened in the first place, I'm glad everyone screaming about this got to their heads and forced them to change their minds. Well done for reversing course at least. I bet activity on these stores rapidly surged after the initial announcement

Re: There's a Brand New Sonic Game Coming to PS5, PS4 in 2022
@nessisonett Ok so Runners Sonic then
I think that's more or less how he looked in Forces as well. Stouter body but still retaining the modern traits
Re: There's a Brand New Sonic Game Coming to PS5, PS4 in 2022
@AdamNovice Nah it's definitely Modern Sonic. He has the longer legs and spikes.
Re: There's a Brand New Sonic Game Coming to PS5, PS4 in 2022
This teaser felt like a teaser for the teaser
Like what was I supposed to get excited over
"There's a new Sonic game and Sonic's in it"
Thanks Sonic Team

Re: Sonic the Hedgehog Is Cameoing in Every Game for His 30th Anniversary
I was honestly expecting a Persona crossover of some kind again
They did it with Forces with the Joker costume for the Avatar and the Sonic Morgana costume in P5D, why not something in P5R or P4G on PC
Re: Sonic Colors: Ultimate Speeds onto PS4 This September

It's a Spider-Man collaboration
The Bomb Squad is coming to Fall Guys

Re: Marvel's Avengers' Red Room Takeover Prepares You for Black Widow
Each update, this game's inherent desperation to basically just appeal to the MCU crowd just becomes more and more obvious. It doesn't even do it well
Re: Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster (PS4) - A Cult Classic RPG that Deserves a Better Rebirth
@suikoden You know what I can actually let Dante as paid DLC slide because they probably needed to get back in touch with Capcom to even get that to happen in the first place and some royalties probably had to be paid as a result of Atlus not owning the character rights
Everything else is inexcusable but I can understand the licensing jargon behind Dante, especially since it looks like they also got Rueben Langdon to re-record all the original dubbed dialogue from the English PS2 version
Re: Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster (PS4) - A Cult Classic RPG that Deserves a Better Rebirth
@suikoden The remaster itself is mediocre but it probably got bumped up to a 7 because the game itself is still a great game
Re: Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster (PS4) - A Cult Classic RPG that Deserves a Better Rebirth
"Old content as paid DLC... In a near full price remaster"
Are we finally calling Atlus out for this NOW?
Re: Talking Point: Should Sony Have Its Own Controller Design Lab?
I'd be so down for that. Especially if they let you do things like have custom engravings on your controller or being able to customize stuff like if your buttons are colored or single-tone, or the color of your touchpad and light bar
Re: Days Gone Refuels with Nearly Half an Hour of PC Gameplay
Honestly even though I didn't love Days Gone at all I might get this on PC to have something pretty to look at because Sony seems to have gone all out on the extra performance tweaks and features here
Re: Dragon Quest 35th Anniversary Sets Livestream for 26th May
I think a collection of the Zenithian trilogy games for Switch is pretty likely now that they already got I-III
I hope they remaster the 3DS versions of VII and VIII and put them on console personally. I also think Heroes 3 would be nice to see
Re: Hands On: Gravity Rush, Freedom Wars Fans Will Feel at Home in Scarlet Nexus on PS5, PS4
Ok. Now I NEED to get this game. I love Gravity Rush and if this game follows a similar style of gameplay I'm totally behind this.

Re: Mortal Kombat Dev Rumoured to Be Working on Marvel Fighter
@Casco You do realize WB Interactive have actually been involved with Marvel before right
They own TT Games as well, who made 3 different LEGO Marvel games
Re: Mortal Kombat Dev Rumoured to Be Working on Marvel Fighter
Oh please
A Marvel fighter with a deep story mode campaign and an extensive roster of fighters that include deep cuts in their comics history sounds incredible
Re: Ghosts 'n Goblins Resurrection Tries Again on PS4 from 1st June
@nessisonett Rise is already confirmed to be getting a PC version next year lol
Re: MCU Skins in Marvel's Avengers Leak Online
God that Captain America model looks even more like Value Village Chris Evans with the Civil War suit on

Re: PlayStation China to Host Press Conference Next Week
Black Myth Wukong looks super promising. I really hope that game makes an appearance here.
Re: PlayStation Plus Video Pass Expands PS Plus with Movies and TV Shows, but Only in Poland for Now
@theheadofabroom Not just those. I also think of stuff like Daredevil with Ben Affleck, or The Punisher with Thomas Jane when watching Venom
It reeks of early 2000's comic book movie
Re: Poll: Is PlayStation Plus Video Pass the Right Way to Expand PS Plus?
This is really confusing as an approach to movie streaming considering they literally just struck those deals with Netflix and Disney+ to serve as hubs for streaming their upcoming movies
Re: PlayStation Studios Boss Wants 'Distinct and Diverse' Range of Games, Sony Committed to Both AAA Quality and Experimentation
This entire week is basically "Sony's PR Course Correction Triathalon"
They're literally doing everything to make people forget about that Bloomberg article lmao
Of course, seeing is believing at the end of the day
Please bring Gravity Rush back
Re: Sony Sponsors Asobu, a Community Hub for Japanese Indies
Well done Sony. They sure as hell are clapping back after that Bloomberg article
Nice to see that we're probably going to a large variety of games coming to the platform in between the AAA games and even the mid tier stuff.
Re: PlayStation Plus Video Pass Expands PS Plus with Movies and TV Shows, but Only in Poland for Now
@BoldAndBrash It's fun but also the character deserved A LOT better
The banter between Brock and the symbiote was cute but the rest of the film played out like one of those pre-MCU Marvel movies from like 2003/2004
Re: PlayStation Plus Video Pass Expands PS Plus with Movies and TV Shows, but Only in Poland for Now
Imagine using the Venom movie as a selling point for anything
Re: MLB The Show 21 (PS5) - A Lead-Off Double But Not a Home Run

Re: MLB The Show 21 (PS5) - A Lead-Off Double But Not a Home Run
@LordSteev I wouldn't Pass on that at all
Re: Ghost of Tsushima and The Last of Us 2 Both Nominated for Six GDC Awards
Tsushima definitely deserves best Visual Art. That game looks immaculate even just on PS4

Return to Kicking Metatron's dick
Re: Square Enix Joins E3 2021 This Summer
@ATaco Bruh Capcom does not hit consistent home runs lmao
They're way better now but especially from 2010/2011 up until about 2016 they were SUPER hit or miss, especially on their fighting games
Re: Square Enix Joins E3 2021 This Summer
Guess we know when the next info dump for Final Fantasy XVI will be

Re: More Free PS4 Games and Offers Coming Soon, Sony Confirms
@Ralizah Lost Legacy's probably a given. The Nathan Drake Collection and Uncharted 4 were both given away for free previously I believe
