Even at that price, surprisingly not worth it for me. The only games that interest me even a little are Burnout, Battlefront 2, and Fallen Order. Two of those were on PS+ and the third I already own and didn't find interesting enough to finish.
That's pretty damning for EA's accomplishments as a publisher this generation.
I would have voted for God of War, but I don't believe it will be out in 2022. Horizon: Zero Dawn was one of my favourite games of the last generation, but I'm not sure they'll pull the sequel off.
This is the perfect kind of game for me - games that I wouldn't necessarily buy for myself but would love to try if available.
I do have Greedfall, but I'm excited for more people to get a chance to play it. Despite a lot of flaws it was an RPG trying to do interesting things in a time when there aren't many Bioware style RPGs being made.
I've only played 4 games and of those Fall Guys isn't game of the year and I didn't get to the new part of Persona 5 Royale (it's so long and I've already played P5).
I guess I'd have to go for Ghosts of Tsushima or Yakuza: Like a Dragon, but while both are strong, neither feels like game of the year material to me.
@Ryu_Niiyama One of the Dragon Age: Inquisition expansions hinted at some deeper revelations to the nature of the blight and archdemons, so I expect we've still got more to come
They need to hire the people behind the This Person Does Not Exist website to build them an AI to auto-generate realistic faces for the non-scanned players.
We'll be getting to the point soon where you could even feed the AI a photo from the player associations databases or something for the AI to base the face off.
Odyssey's microtransactions still irritated me. It was also clear they existed, and whenever I had to do 10 mins of BS to find the materials to upgrade a sword, it didn't feel like part of the gameplay, it felt like a tax for not paying microtransactions.
@themightyant The PS Store has taken all the fun out of sales for me, and genuinely stopped me picking up a few purchases. It does almost nothing you want a store to do.
I'm quite confused how Sony ended up with something that has so much less features than what they already had. I hope they've got a lot more improvements to come
Joining in with the "I was never interested in this one" crowd. The art style does nothing for me, and everything else has looked like "Destiny with swords" from day one. This announcement just confirms that to me

Re: Hands On: Persona 5 Strikers Is a Streamlined Sequel That's Smashed Our Expectations
I'd love to play more Persona 5, but I also think the free-time mechanic is the best part of the series, so I don't know how to feel about this.
Re: Harry Potter Fans Share Their Hopes and Dreams for Hogwarts Legacy
It's risky speculating what you think a games going to be like long before the developers have told you what it will actually be.
It's too easy to dream something big, and get hurt when it's different. Games can be so many things.
Re: Poll: What's Your Most Anticipated PS5, PS4 Game of 2021?
1. Mass Effect Legendary Edition - they weren't nearly enough Bioware style RPGs last generation.
2. Hogwarts Legacy
3. Nier Replicant
4. Ratchet & Clank
Honourable mentions: Destruction All-stars, Goodbye Volcano High.

Re: Feature: 12 PS5, PS4 Predictions for 2021
I think E3 will happen again (not sure if it will happen in 2021), but its significance is going to be greatly diminished.

Re: PS Store Game Awards Sale Has lots of PS5, PS4 Game Deals
I just bought Yakuza on disc! Wish I had it digitally. Either way, fantastic game even if it rivals Persona for it's slow slow start.

Re: Pokémon-Like Temtem Gets Exclusive Early Access on PS5 This December
I'm excited for this. It surprised me how long it took for someone to make a true Pokemon inspired game.
Now someone make a Smash Bros clone with the falling off ledges system.
Re: New PS Store Sale Has Some of the Last PS4 Deals Before PS5 Arrives
It's much harder to see if there's anything I want to buy in the sale with the new website. I had a wishlist for a reason!
