Re: New PS2 Emulator Appears to Be Imminent on PS5, PS4

WiiWareWave

Hopefully this means PS4 will eventually get Wild Arms: Alter Code F, Wild Arms 4, Wild Arms 5, Grandia Extreme, Grandia III, Gungriffon Blaze, and Sylpheed: The Lost Planet courtesy of this emulation since Wild Arms are second party titles, and Game Arts & Media Vision actually supported the PS3 pretty well with PSOne and PS2 Classics!

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for January 2024 Announced

WiiWareWave

Wow, glad I don't have a subscription anymore...been ages since anything I'd have interest enough to have a sub has been put on essential. Nobody Saves The World is something I'd like, but not enough for an entire sub when I could get the game for around $10 on-sale.

Re: Sony Has Stopped Updating PS Plus' Subscriber Numbers

@Raynor85x There should be a tier for just online features that's cheap. Honestly if I weren't an adult there'd only be like 2-3 games a year that I could play on the essential service, and even as an adult there was only like 3 games each year that I had any interest in tops. That's why I gave up on the service and with such a massive price hike I don't see myself ever signing back up unless Sony does the unthinkable and locks the use of the PlayStation Store behind a PS+ subscription paywall.

Re: Sony Reveals iSIZE Acquisition, Not a Games Developer

@Shepherd_Tallon As an American why should I be happy about the push towards streaming games? Aside from California, NYC, and maybe Washington State, our infrastructure is absolute doodoo in all-but the wealthiest neighborhoods even in huge metropolises such as Phoenix, Chicago, Dallas, etc. So 90% of us don't have enough speed or stability to stream games without them buffering every few seconds...

Re: Sony Aiming for At Least Two Big PS5 Exclusives Each Year Across 'Every Major Genre'

WiiWareWave

@IOI GaaS games can work if done with single player in mind. GaaS just means continuous updates after launch such as what Spiderman, Final Fantasy XV, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Animal Crossing: New Horizons had. Live service is likely what you're thinking of which tend to focus on multiplayer and require a constant internet connection which includes MMO's, Fortnite, Genshin Impact, Gran Turismo 6, etc.

Re: Horizon Forbidden West's PS5 Exclusive Expansion Still Scheduled for 19th April

@KaijuKaiser @NEStalgia In all honesty Sony is definitely more anti-consumer than Nintendo is at present, though that tends to flip-flop every few years or so, so eventually Nintendo will hold that "title" again. That said the fact that the DLC isn't coming to PS4 has pretty much ensured I won't get the base-game until it drops below $15 on-sale.

And no I am not getting a PS5 as I can't afford a $500+ console, heck I could barely afford the PS3, PS4, and Switch at $300 each when they could actually be found at that price. PS3/PS4 cost $500+ now so I won't even be able to afford a replacement if either of them breakdown on me.

Re: New PS1 Classics Can Be Bought Off the PS Store

@ShogunRok @LiamCroft Uh...I have both The Legend of Dragoon and Wild Arms 2 on PS3, but it appears Sony has silently stopped letting players who have the classic games on the same account on PS3/Vita download the PS4 upgrade for free. You might want to report this in an article.
