Always happy to hear good news!!

@BoldAndBrash Pretty much the opposite opinion for me, I think TLOU2 is massively overrated. Gameplay was solid as was worldbuilding, but I couldn't stand the story and characters. Kudos for taking a risk, but imo the risk failed hard.

Granted GoT is fairly generic, but TLOU2 was hardly innovative either. I don't really mind if a game isn't innovative, as long as it's quality. GoT's combat is extremely satisfying, and it made somewhat generic objectives fun. I thought the story was very well told as well, the setting/context were well used and the characters were all interesting.

And all of this is coming from someone who prefers more linear games.

We need something from Babylon's Fall. The most recent trailer was awesome, but that was over a year ago.

Excellent news. Remember this when someone says you shouldn't complain or voice your opinion.

@Arckadius Me too, but that's because they don't go down for some reason so you really have another option.

@wiiware Oof, it's a bad day if I'm even up at that time.

@wiiware What you mean you don't plan your life around video games?

@Col_McCafferty Because there's literally no reason to make playing a demo unnecessarily convoluted.

@Jayofmaya I think it's fair to say a decent amount is known about Mesoamerican cultures. Definitely enough to make a game inspired by mythology. Not to mention these civillisations were pretty advanced despite being isolated, Incan astronomy did things Europeans could dream of. Not to mention there is media that already exists, like the film Apocalypto. Never Alone did a story based on Inupiaq mythology of all things.

Pretty cool, we don't get many games based on Pre-Colombian civillizations.

I wish it was working on a new Jak game as well, the PS2 games were all class. Even if Naughty Dog didn't make one, I reckon Insomniac could do a great job. I would much prefer a sequel instead of a remake though.

Not got a PS5, but I'll keep an eye on it. It will most likely be one of the first games I buy.

@AhmadSumadi Fairs. For handheld gaming I just use my Switch. Even then, it's hard to play when it's rested and I'm using a controller.

@Excess That is useful. However I'd rather not bring my PS4 controller around with me. And if I'm at home, chances are there's a better device for playing Playstation games.

Yes please. Really excited to play my favourite games on a tiny screen with no controller.

Doesn't really need a remake. Judging by how TLOU2 turned out, I have a nasty feeling they'd mess up the story somehow

There's really no reason this game needs a remake. Sure the graphics aren't as modern, but they still hold up extremely well. Granted some gameplay improvements could be added, but again the game still plays perfectly well.

I'm extremely worried about what they'd do the story, it's perfect and there's no reason to touch it. If that there's one story that could do with a rewrite, it's TLOU2.

I do love the Uncharted games, but do we really need more. I thought Uncharted 4 was meant to be the series swan song.

I'm fairly happy with this, Days Gone didn't appeal to me so I'd rather see something new. Understandably people who really liked it and want a sequel can't be too pleased. At least the studio isn't being shut down, and they will actually have the chance to make more games.

@Cycologist It is different because there aren't limited copies of digital games.

@FX102A That's annoying about Tomba, I meant to pick that up for a while but never got round to it. And discs are extremely expensive.

@pip_muzz Same here. I never owned a PS1 as a kid, and buying used PS1 games is pretty expensive. It was a great way to be able to play games like Crash, Medievil and The Legend of Dragoon for the first time (even though I had to resort to making a fake American account for the last one).

They would expect people to pay to see adverts? That would all be available for free afterwards...

My top 10 (order not certain):
10) Mirror's Edge
9) Puppeteer
8) Tomb Raider (2013)
7) Motorstorm: Pacific Rift
6) Infamous 2
5) Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction
4) Journey
3) Uncharted 2
2) Call of Duty World at War
1) The Last Of Us

I feel like there are a lot of good games I'm missing, only the last spot is definite. I would have put more COD games on the list because I spent so much time playing them, but I limited myself to one game per franchise. Even though the COD games were great fun back then and then series was at it's peak, I do wish I didn't play them as much as I did, and branched out a bit more.

@wiiware Damn, I was doing this by looking at games on my shelf, can't believe I forgot Journey.

I highly recommend getting if you haven't already. It's an amazing game.

@get2sammyb Agreed about Puppeteer. Mad, how it seemed to get completely overshadowed by Knack, just because Knack was a PS4 game.

@Rob_230 They are pretty awkward to play for AAA games. However, I think they're solid and very unique.

Nice. I have seen a lot ads for Crash 4 recently, I was wondering why. It deserves every sale it gets, it's an awesome game.

@Rob_230 Yep. Her character is probably my favourite thing about the game. She's well written and designed in general.

Damn, I thought we gonna get some good news about Japan Studio today.

@Subsided Definitely sucks about Japan Studio, but it's a good thing that MM isn't getting sacked as well.

@sanderson72 That's weird, I don't get why they'd do it then. My only guess is to get people to panic buy as much as possible.

Now that is a welcomed patch.

What exactly is the point in this? Is it really that much more expensive to keep PS3 games listed on the same store as PS4 and PS5 games?

Just finished The Legend of Dragoon today. What a journey.

@DETfaninATL If you don't like every COD being the same as the last, isn't it better that they do zombies rather than doing Spec Ops every single game?

Alternate reality is a good idea. I'd love to see a storyline where the A bombs weren't dropped, and Operation Downfall went ahead.

@TheRedComet As much as I'm up for a WW2 game, the Korean War is such an underlooked conflict and would make for a great COD game.

@themightyant Lol, obviously it's looking for someone with a full body, not just a head.

That woman really didn't do a good job of hiding. Excited for the game though, the world and movement look amazing.

I have nothing against replaying games, there are plenty I want to experience again. However, for me it's just a matter of limited time, and I'd generally rather use that time to experience something new.

@Profondo I loved the game, it's a real shame about the technical issues because we could have potentially had another game by now. That is why I did respect Sony a lot before, because they were originally committed to sticking with an artistic vision, even if would cost them financially. But yeah, definitely looking forward to whatever he brings out next.

@Jackpaza0508 Of course not, as soon as game drops from it's peak popularity, it's basically dead and there's no reason to play it, even if it's possible to find a match and you enjoy the game.

Sarcasm aside, I'm loving this futuristic theme.

@Deadlyblack Yep, Siren had such an awesome atmosphere, and sightjacking was a cool mechanic. Will be interesting to see what else he comes up with.

@suikoden The Last Guardian actually sold pretty well (1.3 million according to VGChartz). Granted it most likely made a loss because of technical issues during development, but the point is the game is obviously appealing enough to sell, and such delays aren't typical and only really occurred to the nature of the project.

As for the other 2 games, they can't really sell well if they aren't marketed properly. It's the developers job to make a game good, and it's the publishers job to get people to buy it. If the game is good but sells badly, the people who did their job well aren't the ones that should be fired.

Even if there was no way Japan Studio's game could ever make a profit (which I don't believe), Sony most likely could afford to keep them open with the amount WWS as a whole brings in. Granted they are a business so they are entitlement to do what they want for maximum profit, doesn't mean I won't call them greedy and compare them to EA.

@AdamNovice From 2013 - 17, they put out Puppeteer, Gravity Rush 2, and The Last Guardian. All of which are very solid games.

Looks fun. There's a lot of mechanics they can do with a futuristic setting.

Amazing game, so well deserved.

It's not even been 2 years since Sekiro, so I'm not starving just yet. It was probably just announced too early.
