@UltimateOtaku91 however you look at it, 2025 could be a very stacked year for games, with GTA6 (potentially) being the cherry on the top at the end of the year
@themightyant love stories like this! Something similar happen to me. I made a project to fix a minor problem at work, so I could add it to my resume but my boss saw it and I ended up moving department to a better job. ๐
@UltimateOtaku91 where do you think Ghost of Yลtei will sit? For me it will either be March (if close to being ready for release) or a Sept/Oct release window.
It feels like GTA6 is going to dictate the release schedule of 2025!
@Azex I thought the same. If they were bonus games, that means they are more. Obviously not.
Very meh month. With it being Xmas it would have been nice if they dropped one of their 1st party games but I imagine they want to try and cash in on people buying them over Xmas.
@somnambulance people are allowed to express their disappointment when games get announced, much like how people express their joy for the selection. I happy that the selection works for you, I really am. But for me, it is really poor. That is not being negative... that is just my opinion.
At first, the price tag put me off and that was backed up when the reviews came out. This will be something I either pick up when it is at least 50% off or if it gets added to Ps Plus down the line.
@Victor_Meldrew it was the only title I was looking at getting if it dropped lower than before. But it just stays at the 20%. Iโve still not player Cyberpunk main game, so I can wait a little longer
@Max_the_German I just fired up GTAV on cloud streaming and it seems to work a lot better than local remote play. I have the same issue with my Xbox. XCloud works so well, where as remote play can be hit or miss. Probably my home network set up, but at least I have options now
I wonder if they will be looking into mobile gaming studios? KING is obviously bringing in silly money with very little effort, so I could probably see them looking for something along the same lines?
We have no idea how many were for sale to start with. On the launch day, the Pros did sell out in the UK. So I guess they have moved some stock around or increased the number.
@Titntin reminds me of when I got my OG PS5 off Amazon. It crashed, and then when it reloaded I managed to snag one. But it assigned it to an old card that didn't have the funds on it. Luckily hey give a grace period where you could change payment details.
@Titntin I was one of those folks who dismissed the Portal. I now own one and think its incredible. I am interested in what the Pro Bundle Price would be. A sum of everything or a sum with a discount?
I would like to know if it is the visuals of the base game or Burning Shores? Not sure what they did but Burning Shores looked amazing. I think it was the cloud system them added which really helped.
I had 0 expectations going into this when I watched it this morning and I left pleasantly surprised. I was quite against the Horizon remaster originally but it looks like a bit of effort has gone into it. I finally see Sony's vision with these remasters; it is to get them on PC. Makes me wonder if that Days Gone remaster rumour is true...
My main gripe with it is the constant stopping you on your tracks for someone to say something obvious or that the puzzle is solved for you as soon as you walk into an area.
I feel they are using the remasters to fill gaps in between their larger releases (if they ever come that is). Usually by this point in the game generation we are seeing the big games that all the studios have been working on. Showing off what the console can really do! It has been a strange generation....

Re: PEGI Won't Budge on Balatro's Ridiculously Bloated European Age Rating
I have played a lot of this game on my IPhone and where is the gambling part? Is it just because it used Poker hands?!
Did they even play the game?!

Re: LEGO Fortnite Expands with Social Sim Brick Life, Launches This Week on PS5, PS4
I am not a fan of Fortnite but this looks really cool. Tempted to download it
Re: Mini Review: Nine Sols (PS5) - The Best Metroidvania on the Market
@smellyplaymarky yes. You can set damage taken to 1% and damage given to 1000%.
It is quite funny doing the boss battles like that.

Wow.... such a weak month.
I wish It Takes Two could be played solo or with a bot

Iโve still not player Cyberpunk main game, so I can wait a little longer
Re: Huge PS Store Black Friday Sale Live Now, 500+ PS5, PS4 Games on Offer
What an underwhelming โsaleโ. Was expected a little more off the Cyberpunk dlc, instead of the same 20% every few months
Re: PS Portal Will Allow Cloud Streaming in New Beta Update
Getting a trophy is funny. Just says "Gold trophy unlocked" lol

Re: PS Portal Will Allow Cloud Streaming in New Beta Update
I was only saying yesterday it would be nice if the Portal could stream PS3 games.
This is a good step in the right direction for sure
Re: 17 More PS Plus Extra, Premium Titles Live Now, Including PS3 Classics
I would love it Sony added a native streaming app to the Portal
Re: Sounds Like Microsoft Isn't Done with Gaming Acquisitions Just Yet

Re: 17 Games Land on PS Plus Extra, Premium Next Week
I am sorry... am I dreaming??
PS3 Games being added!!!
Not a bad month. Just a tip for those playing GTA5... it will probably be there for 3-6 months again
Re: LEGO Horizon Adventures (PS5) - Dull Design Lets Down This Gorgeous Spin-Off
As much as I enjoy Horizon and the odd Lego game, I think I will wait for this to enter a deep sale or if it gets added to PS Plus.
Re: PS5's New Welcome Hub Reportedly Now Popping Up in Europe
Has this rolled out to the UK yet? I don't understand why it was a long rollout?
Re: Crickets as Suicide Squad Endures Another Muted Launch
I enjoyed the game play of this. It was very fluid and quite fun once you got the hang of it.
Re: Bickering Begins Over PS5 Pro's Inability to Sell Out
We have no idea how many were for sale to start with. On the launch day, the Pros did sell out in the UK. So I guess they have moved some stock around or increased the number.
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
@JustX There is no way they will honour that price lol
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
@Ravix it would not hurt for Sony to actually update the info panel on the queue to tell us not to waste our time
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
I wonder how many CEX bought ๐
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
@Medic_alert Same for me. The Pro is quite pricey, but that bundle was a good deal.
I can wait. My base PS5 still has plenty left to give
@Loamy so true. Mine When from 11, 12, 20, 27, 30... back to 12
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
It would help if Sony knew how countdowns worked ๐
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
@Discol76 yeah mine keeps jumping around
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
I feel everything is sold out.... my time has jumped down to 20 min wait
EDIT: 11 mins ๐

Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
52 minutes for me.... no chance

Your estimated waiting time is: more than an hour
Looks like I will not be getting anything ๐

@Cloud39472 I am in a meeting at this moment for work lol
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
@SJBUK I think everyone is still in the waiting room lol
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
10:00 Queue still paused...
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
5 mins and queue is still paused. This should be fun
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
@BloodyBlact Congrats!
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
@Intr1n5ic You know what.... that is tempting
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
@Titntin I was one of those folks who dismissed the Portal. I now own one and think its incredible.
I am interested in what the Pro Bundle Price would be. A sum of everything or a sum with a discount?
Re: How to Pre-Order PS5's 30th Anniversary Collection
I am currently in a paused queue on the UK Direct store. I just want the dual sense lol
Re: Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered PS5 Is Official, Out 31st October with $10 PS4 to PS5 Upgrade
@Titntin it makes sense to based on Burning Shore. It looked stunning.
Re: Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered PS5 Is Official, Out 31st October with $10 PS4 to PS5 Upgrade
I would like to know if it is the visuals of the base game or Burning Shores? Not sure what they did but Burning Shores looked amazing. I think it was the cloud system them added which really helped.
Re: Poll: What Did You Think of Sony's State of Play for September 2024?

Re: State of Play Coming Today, 20+ PS5, PSVR2 Games Included
@Dragoon1994 I would rather them put the effort into new games of the classic IPs (like they did with GoW) or introduce some new IPs.
Remasters are great but it does feel like that is all we are getting atm (not just from Sony)
Re: State of Play Confirmed for Tomorrow, 20+ PS5, PSVR2 Games Included
Are we all ready for the remasters? ๐
Re: Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed (PS5) - Substantial Updates Paint Over Flaws of Beloved Platformer
