@cburg What are "all the" Playstation games that were on Xbox before Playstation acquired them?

Ah so Playstation are getting back a game that was on Playstation anyway before Microsoft acquired them?, gee thanks Microsoft.

It's a tough decision for me personally, there's been three 10/10 games this year and that's Final Fantasy 7 ReBirth, Astro Bot and Metaphor Re Fantazio. Those three games deserve it the most and hopefully it's one of them that gets the main prize.

Sony must be laughing right now, don't have to pay the marketing deal anymore but still get the better version and their sales are have increased whilst their competitors are declining. That gamepass boost best be BIG otherwise I'd expect another price increase to gamepass within the next 6 months.

The more I see and read of the Pro the more I want one, the things a beast. I might pick one up after Christmas along with the VR2, just hope the motion sickness stays away.

Probably because PC players are sulking over the PSN requirement again. Also these games are never going to do as well as they would on Playstation consoles, Sony are using to the PC platform as a quick cash boost when the Console sales for these single player games dry up, so I don't think Sony really care if sales aren't that impressive on PC (unless it's a multiplayer game).

On PS5 I've got the last dungeon to do in both Metaphor Re Fantazio and Trails Through Daybreak so I suppose both of them will take me all weekend to do. If I can finish them quickly then I will move onto either YS Nordics or Farmagia.

On Switch I will be playing some Mario Party Jamboree, time do 30 turns on the shopping mall board.

It's official, CWA are as thick as s**t.

How can they turn a blind eye to a corporation that's actually monopolizing the market yet complain about Sony reducing what they have. These Studios Sony shut down had no note worthy IP's and haven't made Sony a profit at all. Concord was a new IP and was literally Firewalks first game so how taking that away from the market is causing harm to competition is beyond me. Or are they saying Sony are spending hundreds of millions for the sole reason to close these studios down? Yes because Sony have that much money to waste.

@Jayslow Fully agree, across the PS5 and Switch I don't think I've enjoyed a year as much as this one and there's still some bangers to come like Dragon Quest 3 HD, Lego Horizon, Mario and Luigi Brothership and Fairy Tail 2. Although that might be biased for me as I mainly play JRPG's and this year has been stacked for great JRPG's.

They are right, there's now quite a lot of decent games and ps5 exclusives as well such as Final Fantasy 7 ReBirth, Stellar Blade, Rise of the Ronin, Dragon Age Veilguard, Astro Bot, Returnal, Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, HellDivers 2, Dragons Dogma 2, Silent Hill 2 all not available on PS4, and of course next year there's Monster Hunter Wilds, Death Stranding 2, GTA 6, Ghost of Yotei, Assassins Creed Shadows etc that are skipping the PS4.

So yeah more than enough reasons to finally get a PS5 for those who haven't yet.

They've either released or revealed this year HellDivers 2, Astro Bot, Lego Horizon, Concord (although a disaster), Death Stranding 2, Stellar Blade, Rise of the Ronin, Ghost of Yotei and the Horizon Remake. Throw in the third party timed deals like Silent Hill 2 and FF7 ReBirth then I wouldn't exactly say they haven't shown anything this year or not kept their fans busy.

Next year should hopefully be better in terms of the big first party games and we should see some Wolverine and Marathon gameplay plus the release of Death Stranding 2 and Ghost of Yotei. But I can already tell all of that will be overshadowed by the negativity towards Fairgame$ (if it releases).

It's up there with Halo Infinite, Cyberpunk 2077 (first year) and that Lord of the Rings series from Amazon.

Ah yes because Sony are the only ones not allowed to make live service games 🙃.

@Toot1st Those who were under the assumption Call of Duty going to gamepass would hurt Playstations sales, pretty sure Sony themselves raised that concern during the court proceedings as well.

I knew playstation players weren't going to switch consoles, it makes no sense in buying another console just to play a game in a subscription that will cost over £130 per year. This will probably only effect those who own both consoles to begin with.

Sony were paying for a marketing deal that they didn't need, so hopefully that money is now going to their own studios or other publishing deals like Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin.

When Starfield got made into an Xbox exclusive the xbox fanboys rhetoric was that if you want to play it then buy an xbox.

So right back at ya, you want to play HellDivers 2 then go buy a Playstation 5 and stop whinging.

Typical ABK, this is why I stopped playing any of their games a long time ago, they are turning everything into MTX riddled cash grabs and now resulting to this Bulls**t.

Damn this Remake looks mighty impressive, and for £10 too. I will definitely be getting this but maybe not on day one as there's so many games I need to get done first.

Are you trying to have sex with me?

Whoever that is must be bad at it 😂

Just goes to show that the majority aren't interested in the smaller budget games, plus who wants to buy Ubisoft games at full price when they have huge discounts a month or two after release, plus they have a subscription service where new games get added day one.

There's a few games missing for me, Atelier Yumia, Phantom Brave, Fate Extra Record and Trails in the Sky Remake. Plus Monster Hunter Wilds, Expedition 33, Ghost of Yotei and Borderlands 4 is making next year very promising so far.

@get2sammyb To me, it seems a little different to other LEGO games; much more focused on gameplay than collectibles and unlockable areas.

This is all I needed to know to get me buy this, I've tried lego games before but all the collecting and re doing levels to unlock certain areas got tiresome and I ending giving up. This sounds like it will be the first ever lego game I complete.

@naruball Most of the negativity is coming from either Playstation haters who hate to see Sony make successful games or Marvel Haters who would rather Insonmiac make something else.

But as you say the facts are there that this game is a Metacritic "must play" with a 90 rating and a user score of 8.8, there's no hiding the fact the majority enjoyed this game and rate it highly.

Spider-Man 2 is one of the most disappointing games in recent history

90 metacritic rating, 8.8 user score and multiple game of the year awards and nominations say otherwise.

These are either some entitled salty gamers or just trolls.

I think the physical to digital ratio on brand new releases during launch week are much closer, and thats why physical is going nowhere anytime soon. These high digital figures are inflated by the amount of playstation store sales on older games.

It's a 9/10 so far from me, the only negative is the graphics.

Oh look yet another Souls Like 😑

That Metaphor marketing deal really helped shift some Xbox consoles.....😏

Seriously though Atlus should start putting their games on the Switch day one.

For me personally Japanese games have never been better and are keeping the industry going (that also includes Nintendo).

Enjoyed that, I'm going to try and get more into the series next year. I've completed Trails of Cold Steel 1 and 2, and I'm now currently on chapter 5 of Daybreak and I've liked what I've played so far. So next year I will get Daybreak 2 and then move onto Cost Steel 3 and 4.

Also hyped for the Trails in the Sky Remake, be nice to see how this series began.

@LavenderShroud I wouldn't even say they are in the top 5 in just Japan. Sega, Capcom, Square Enix, Nintendo and Konami are higher, I'd even throw Koei Tecmo in front of them.

There's Death Note games on the DS, so I would wager it could be a remake of those.

@Nem Hasbro had nothing to do with the game, Sony are the sole publisher and the IP owner so I'd wager they are taking a nice big percent of the sales. Even at 20/30% of sales thats still £100-£150 in their pocket.

Such an amazing game and great to know it's sold very well, hopefully this greenlights a sequel or even some DLC.

Concord aside it's been a great year for Playstation, and for me Astro Bot has been the highlight.

PS5 May Soon Be Even More Unchallenged by Xbox in Some Regions

There, fixed it for you.

It's a great game so far and I can see myself loving this game more than Persona especially as I'm a fan of Isekai/Fantasy settings. Hopefully Atlus don't trying and money grab this by releasing an upgraded version next year.

Just got back from work to find my copy waiting for me, so that's me sorted for this weekend. Also that trailer they released yesterday was superb.

Great month, quite a few games I want to play but mainly Dead Island 2 and Return to Monkey Island.

Is this a feature that can be turned off? Or atleast remove everything so it's the just the background fully on show?

@Yousef- Yeah he's the one lol, surprised he hasn't commented yet.

It was a good game but I wish Evolution Studios just stuck with the Motorstorm series, Driveclub and OnRush were their downfall.

Now if this was VR compatible I could play without the misses knowing 😅.

Another family friendly game for a certain someone.

Has the game recieved any substantial updates since launch? Any new maps, modes or characters?

Those negatives bring the score down lower than that for me, but even a 7/10 or 8/10 is still decent and my pre order is being kept.

Just saw it has a metacritic of 94 as well which is possibly Atlus best ever game score wise.

It's just a matter of time.

No Stellar Blade is quite criminal, also Metaphor Re Fantazio getting nominated yet it's not even out yet....

Can't see anything getting in between ReBirth and Astro Bot for the main prize though.

Being a Playstation console exclusive probably has something to do with it.

I must be the rare one who actually likes their games, especially the Far Cry and Watch Dogs games, but also really enjoyed Immortals Fenyx Rising and both Mario Rabbids games.

@DennisReynolds it's not even on gamepass, so they are paying to market a game that hardly any xbox players will be playing.
