I think it's amusing that a guy who's famous for his leaking info has now had his info leaked, hopefully this will act as a deterrent to future leakers, but I some how doubt it.
@Malaise It being a kids game isn't the problem for him as all he goes on about is kids games on NintendoLife, he hates violence of any kind (even pokemon) and so he's saying he doesn't want Lego Horizon as the IP is violent.
Basically they wanted their game to be popular amongst younger players so that when they grow up they may invest into Zero Dawn, Forbidden West and any future games, to me it's a sound strategy as Nintendo most likely has the youngest player base of all three consoles. Pretty sure that Lego games in general sell best on the Switch as well so it's a no brainer.
I think I best start saving, games I'm getting day one are going to be
Metaphor Re Fantazio
YS X Nordics
Visions of Mana
Spy X Anya
Astro Bot
Trails through Daybreak
Lego Horizon
Concord
Silent Hill 2
Dragon Age the Veilguard
Slitterhead
Reynatis
Black Myth Wukong
SMT Vengeance
Monster Hunter Stories
@belmont I think Trails through Daybreak and YS X Nordics have PS4 versions and the rest have PC versions apart from Astro Bot. But if you're a console only player then PS5 is looking packed this year.
Not much for me this month, but I'm happy to see Monster Hunter Rise as this means the player count will shoot up, so I will jump back in and hopefully complete the multiplayer part of the game.
Doesn't matter if Phil admitted Xbox started it does it, he still made the slimy reference about Playstation, so in his mind PlayStation are Slimy for the Call of Duty deal which is why it's hypocritical.
I liked the design of FF16, it keeps the story and action going at a steady pace and the maps weren't too big, so there was no tediousness to exploration.
In the UK we have the news tab, when we press the PlayStation button it's usually the first tab, that usually tells me when some games have updates or a DLC launched like with Destiny 2, Warframe and Tower of Fantasy as im constantly getting new articles based on those titles, as long as your following the game you should get articles based on that title.
That's a tough ask for some, I'm sure they will find something else to moan about instead.
I'm definitely looking forward to Astro Bot more but I will also pick up Lego Horizon day one and hopefully it will be my first Lego game that I complete.
Ah yes but not slimy when Microsoft did it with Call of Duty before, what an hypocrite.
Not slimy to get Tomb Raider one year exclusive, Titanfall 2 full exclusive, GTA 4 DLC timed exclusive, Dead Rising and Ryse full exclusive etc etc, yet Playstation are Slimy 😂, can't wait for this guy to retire.
@Deityjester I can't speak for everyone but when I had a Series S I really enjoyed state of decay 2, probably helped I was big into the walking dead at that point as well and no other game has come close to its likeness in terms of building a settlement, scavenging, recruiting people across the map and trading with other groups etc
Have to laugh at people calling out Playstation fans and people backing Sony on a Playstation website, yet it also does the opposite as the obvious Xbox trolls and Playstation haters have come out the woodwork in droves and its obvious to see who they are. If only these people could go to an actual Xbox website and celebrate this great showcase of theirs 🤔.
@S1ayeR74 Astro Bot, Concord, HellDivers 2, Spider Man 2, Returnal, Ratchet and Clank Rift Apart, Horizon Forbidden West DLC, Demon Souls Remake and the TLOU remakes are all PS5 only
@naruball People have unrealistic expectations with Sony, they have what half the studios Microsoft has? Yet are expected to release the same amount of first party games 🤔, this is why it's good Sony get third party exclusives to fill in the gaps whilst their studios are hard at work.
This year we've had Rise of the Ronin, Stellar Blade, FF7 ReBirth and soon to be Silent Hill 2 Remake, then add titles like Until Dawn and TLOU 2 Remastered, HellDivers 2, Astro Bot, Concord and Lego Horizons which make this year pretty damn good for Playstation and has more exclusive games than Xbox and Nintendo this year. I Honestly don't get the hate, we eating good as they say
I wonder how certain people would act if Sony spent 70 billion on Ubisoft, Square Enix, Sega and Capcom and had a huge Showcase showing all their games, they wouldn't be singing Sony's praise il put it that way.
Well over half of the games shown are coming to Playstation, plus quite a few games were also shown/announced at last year's showcase and are still years away, so I'd rather Sony just show what's coming within 12/18 months than show stuff years away and showing it multiple times.
Also that Showcase consisted of three publishers (Bethesda alone showed 5 trailers), if you want Sony to have the same to show off then someone best give them 70 billion so they can buy multiple publishers, I'm sure it's easy to show off a lot of stuff when you're one of the biggest and richest companies on earth. Anyone asking Sony to match Microsofts output is asking for the impossible and as its asking Sony's studios to output multiple games at once.
Plus there was trailers for updates for 4 live service games included, if that was Sony they would be getting destroyed for that.
@anoyonmus For reference it was the 2022 xbox showcase where I changed my score from a 7 to an 8 (or a C to a B), I also edited my comment within a matter of minutes but certain people obsessed over my comments on PX, hence why I blocked him and 5 other members over the space of a week.
@danzoEX Well they won't be getting the FF7 Remake trilogy until it's finished on playstation, but they didn't even show Visions of Mana which is meant to be coming this year and those FF9 Remake rumours were way off unless it's at the Nintendo Direct.
@GamingFan4Lyf Tbf Xbox had the better showcase last year and the year before, with some of the games shown today announced back then as well, and Playstation are still out selling them 3-1. So at this point it doesn't matter what xbox show they aren't going to make much difference, atleast not this gen anyway.
@Decimateh-xblz Yeah I think 2025/26 will be huge for Playstation, and I expect the same will happen to Xbox Game Studios as all their titles seem to be coming over the next two years so after that they will have a quiet period again.
@Bez87 Three publishers in one showcase and xbox have way more money to pay for stuff to be shown although most are still a few years away and some game getting shown again after also being shown at last year's showcase.
@itsfoz Tbf Xbox can afford to show a lot (literally), there was three publishers there to show their stuff and that's what 70 billion gets you. People need to accept they can't keep comparing Sony to Microsoft in terms of first party content.

Re: Video Game Leaking Culture Has Hit an Embarrassing New Low
I get you want to remain anonymous as a leaker but it's a bit extreme to also pretend to be a young female.
There's something called V-Tubers if he wants to do that s**t.

Games on PS5/Switch but not Xbox are YS X Nordics, Lego Horizon and Trails through Daybreak.
Also Black Myth Wukong is now a timed exclusive.
Re: The Rest of 2024's PS5 Release Schedule Is Finally Filling Up, and It's Looking Good
Don't forget YS X:Nordics
Re: Preview: LEGO Horizon Adventures Is an Unexpected But Very Pleasant Surprise
Easily the best looking Lego game to date. I'm hoping for a collectors edition that comes with an actual lego set of one of the machines.

Re: Final Fantasy 9 Remake Is Almost Certainly Real as Another Database Leak Appears
Has a strong chance of being revealed at Nintendo's direct next week, along with Dragon Quest 1-3 HD-2D trilogy.
I don't expect fancy visuals like FF7 Remake, il be happy with a an art style similar to the Trials of Mana Remake.

Yet another day one JRPG must have for me, I can't remember a year where ive bought (or plan to buy) so many great JRPG's as this year.

Re: Ex-PS5 Exec Shawn Layden Isn't Holding Back His Feelings on Xbox
Don't worry Shawn most of us think the same.
Re: Dragon Age: The Veilguard Is Very 'Mission-Based', Not Unlike Mass Effect
So similar to Final Fantasy 16?
I liked the design of FF16, it keeps the story and action going at a steady pace and the maps weren't too big, so there was no tediousness to exploration.

@Intr1n5ic Lol I was skimming through the first part of the names, I didn't know the game was called Clair Obscur.
Re: These Are All the Games from the Xbox Showcase Confirmed for PS5
Pretty sure there was more than that, I counted 17/18, plus Stalker 2 is only a timed exclusive.
I think I'm most looking forward to Expedition 33 from that list.
