Ape Escape Remake launch title for PS5 confirmed!

@Kidfunkadelic83 Well then, you need to...
Git gud.
You can dooo eeeet

@MadAussieBloke brilliant

Is it hard to get excited about someone possibly swearing off your studio's game when Stadia's unproven tech has some hiccups, Mr. Inaba?

@BAMozzy very good explanations re: the typist analogy.
"I won't buy the most powerful just because its the most powerful."
Couldn't agree more. In fact, when I was considering a current-generation system, I was leaning towards Xbox One because I wanted to try Forza, even though I'd had and enjoyed thoroughly PS1 and PS2. However, I jumped back on PlayStation 4 because I remembered my love for their earlier franchises, I really wanted to try the Uncharted Collection and The Last of Us and it was home to my favorite racing game series, Gran Turismo.
Whatever system ends up being more powerful next gen doesn't really matter. What will matter is does one or the other have the games I want to play, and for now, that still looks like it's going to be PlayStation. I'm not ruling out Xbox if they come up with some awesome must-play titles though.

So if one has 24GB of RAM but a little slower Zen 2 processor, and the other has 18GB of RAM but a faster version of Zen 2, can we really say which is more powerful? I've heard in Digital Foundry's analysis of the Zen 2 introduction that the next-gen consoles power clash won't necessarily be down to teraflops like it was in the 8th generation.

As always, I'll reserve my hype until Sony drops the official release date. Besides, Ms. Johnson could have been breaking out into a stirring rendition of Peggy Lee's 'Fever' then thought better of it.

Scalpers gonna scalp.

Looks promising, but I hope it doesn't turn into next generation's 'Deep Down'.

@NimrodNation20 Sony is on record as saying the next generation system (PS5) will not launch within the next 12 months.
So anytime in March 2020 is out, unless something drastically changes.

Final Fantasy VII Remake: Redefining 'Cross-Generational Gaming since March 2020.

If the PS5 lands at $500 with the purported specs it has, it will still be quite expensive but I think gamers will snap it up in droves. Sony supposedly will be taking a haircut on each one sold for a while even at that price, but they probably expect to make back that money and more in software sales, new PS Plus/PS Now subscriptions, etc. The savings they made not showing up at E3 this year could probably factor into it as well Anything more than $500, like say $550, and they'll be pushing it.

@AFCC You's a gamer, that's what's up. It's a good condition to have.

@JoeBlogs you mean like the body wash and deodorant?

Nice throwback @get2sammyb

Lots of PlayStation goodness at the end of next year:
November 2020 - Likely PS5 Launch
December 2020 - Long in limbo Uncharted movie finally sees the light of day
Although I'm not convinced we need an Uncharted movie, Sony should handle their own franchise with the utmost care. Hopefully we won't have to see a movie Nathan Drake redesign after trailer backlash, a la Sanic... I mean Sonic.

🎵'A whole new world, a new fantastic point of view! No one to tell us no, or where to go, or say we're only dreaming'🎵
Surely the exec's at Bungie must be singing this due to Sony's decision.
Ok, where's my old, stuck-up Sony, and what have you done with them?

Push Square site background: Plastered with Warhammer: Chaosbane advertising.
Push Square's Warhammer: Chaosbane review: MEH - 5/10
I appreciate the reviewer's honesty. If the game is not up to scratch, say it, site sponsorship be damned.
I dunno if anyone else is seeing this, maybe it's because of my location?

Well that's good news, so the PS5 should be able to make DayZ run at more than single digit framerates, eh?

I added What Remains of Edith Finch to my library, so I'm good to go when I'm ready to download and play it.

Ha ha ha, what a way to start a Monday morning. Thanks for the laugh, Todd. I guess that is how it just works, eh?

They could turn CoD into a fish-in-a-barrel shooter now. That would be fresh and tasty, something that's never been done before

Isn't this the second time there has been a Steel Black DualShock 4 on sale? The last one was offer for a limited time..

So, can I officially say RIP to all standard PS4s CPU fans out there that will be trying in vain to keep the CPU cool running this game?

I've already got Sonic Mania (Plus version) but I'll definitely give Borderlands THC a shot.

Cool. Make it as good as it can get on the PS4, it should be a great send-off game for a great console.

"!"
I believe it if the post has been deleted. I'm really looking forward to the trailer/livestream later today.

@Thunderlips69 true, but Sony's never said State of Play will have a set-in-stone monthly schedule, so they could put one out whenever they've got something significant to announce.

@Quintumply true, but they've got to be concerned that year after year the sales of CoD are falling, maybe not critically, but falling nonetheless. People who are huge CoD fans may be experiencing burnout or finding interest in other game genres and franchises.

@oatmealwarrior92 CoD is a major component of Activision's finances, yes, so any significant falloff in sales they've gotta be feeling it, but I don't think it would cripple them per se.

Activision / Call of Duty should consider taking a break from the yearly releases or run the risk of becoming stale and irrelevant.

This may be an unpopular opinion, and I know TLOU is an absolutely HUGE franchise even though it's only 2 games in, but are we sure an announcement of a release window for Part II is enough to counter the expectation of Microsoft's 'longest and biggest E3 press conference ever'?
Asking as a gamer.

@ApostateMage I thought the entity you call @ShogunRok was the Master of Unlocking...

This feels like the video game industry equivalent to the 2016 Acura NSX reveal process... long and drawn out. The end product is still an awesome car, though.
Why, yes, I'm a car geek. Why do you ask?

"Who are you taking to catch Sonic on Valentines Day?"
Three people. 'Me', 'Myself' and 'I' 😔
Gotta watch that 'Myself' doesn't hog all the popcorn, though

The fact that there's a cartoonish, gloved hand holding that sign gives me hope that the movie Sonic will be at least passable.

I'd love to try PSVR, especially with all of the great games the current version has been getting. Not sure if my stomach can deal with it, but I'd not let that be a deterrent. I think it's great news the PS5 will support PSVR and backward compatibility, and I hope at least some of the newer VR titles out now will be getting resolution/visual upgrades to take advantage of the new hardware.

@Neolit that's cool. In my situation and because consoles are so expensive in Barbados, I prefer to wait until the first run is depleted and the price drops sometime after launch. For example, I remember buying a brand new PS2 back in September 2002. I paid $1,200 (!) local for the system. This was quite a while after launch... So, yeah, I can wait

That's good news for me. I'll never buy a Day One system, so it'll give beta teste... I mean, early adopters and Sony a chance to work out the bugs in the first and second rounds of hardware revisions. I'm quite happy with my standard PS4 for a while yet. I'll get a PS5 when prices taper off to something more affordable.

@Areus yup. More trollish misinformation videos and outrage reaction coming in 3-2-1...

The game itself is telling you stop trying to flog this dead horse, Rockstar. No one's playing online anymore...

@Flaming_Kaiser A mere inconsequential setback on the way to world domination, I can assure you my good man.

Mad Box will conquer all! 🤣

Surely Sony and Microsoft were spooked by the shadow of the next-generation console which will dominate all and decided to fight it together. The name of the beast that struck fear into the collective hearts of two of the world's largest tech giants?

Mad Box.

Bow your head in reverence when you say its name.

Google who?

And thus should be the end of the fanboyism of 'My plastic box is better than your plastic box'.
But who are we kidding? You just know the YouTubes will be full of clickbait/misinterpreted "OMG, Microsoft is buying Sony, MS has won next generations!1111!!"
Personally, I think this is very interesting news and I look forward to how this will impact the evolution of gaming over the next decade.

It would make sense at this point that it's more than likely a cross-generation title. I'm just concerned that they decided to chop it up into episodes.

@rjejr @Frigate @NorrinRadd I kinda thought so too, but also realise that some companies can't afford to wait and release solely on next generation and miss out on the massive install bases and sales potential of the current generation. Return On Investment and all that.

Mmmm, tasty.
Ham so soft, it goes down like silk.

Exactly what isn't possible in Dreams? So looking forward to the full release of this.

Downloading a converted MP4 so I can watch it in transit on the bus.

@TheLastOfUs2 yeah that's it, I stand corrected, thanks!

@TheLastOfUs2 that's pure conjecture. No one knows Sony's schedule for State of Play or timeline for TLOU2/GoT/Dreams/DS info dumps except Sony themselves at this point.
