Good God, people complaining about this really need to reflect on their lives.

Genuine question, does anyone here still only use the internal storage on their PS5?

As others have said, I really want to see Insomniac free from the Marvel chains they're currently locked in.

I thought Microsoft own the publishing rights?

Aside from that, I really like this game. It was one of the first games I got when I bought an Xbox One and recently played through it again on Series X and had just as much fun as the first time round.

It's not for everyone but definitely deserves more recognition than it currently gets.

@Mince Did you read the whole thing? I hate the idea of a digital only future but can see how companies could be seen to do better when it comes to plastic waste.

I can also see a way for them to 'help' customers move from physical to digital if there was an actual incentive for gamers.

Which is why I also suggested a way for gamers to trade or monetise their digital games.

You don't read things properly pal! End of topic! 😂

I vaguely remember messaging Phil Spencer on Twitter a few years ago that it would be a good move to have a kind of trade in programme where you post them your disc and they credit your account with a digital copy of that game. They could then recycle what they could out of all the discs and the world is a nicer place.

But as a follow up, they would need to create a digital trade in shop in the Xbox store. One where people could list their digital games for sale or trade them with other users. Prices would be set by Xbox based on the number if digital copies etc. available to trade in. In exactly the same way that places like CeX do now.

I think a digital trade in/swap store would be an absolute game changer for the customer. Whilst the initial hit to Xbox or PlayStation could be negated by them insisting on subscriptions to things like PS+ or Game Pass.

But what do I know.

@Mustoe I think a more likely future is that everything becomes a streaming/download app only.

I can see physical games existing but only if Sony and Microsoft allow third parties to make versions of their systems.

If everything is on them to produce the ONLY compatible hardware with their games then I can see the PS6 and next Xbox being digital only at launch.

I do think that Microsoft have slightly different plans for future hardware compared to Sony though. I'm fairly sure they're looking to partner with companies in the same way that Windows PCs are currently sold. If that's the case then it will be fairly straightforward to offer a disc model too.

Time will tell I guess.

@MrGilly69 That was over 10 years ago.

@jrt87 @Brydontk Sorry. In my opinion. I enjoyed them all.

What??? All 4 are great games and perfectly playable on current gen systems. Absolutely baffling decision from Capcom unless there are some major changes or a huge amount of new content.

QOL improvements won't cut it for this release.

I have a feeling (and hope) this will sell amazingly well but I'm just a little gutted there's no VR mode. Rescue Mission is one of my favourite platform games ever (VR or flat screen).

But who would have thought that making a game that's open to everyone, doesn't cost hundreds of millions and is just fun to play would be a good idea???

Oh wait.... Nintendo and every game they ever release. 😂

This is exactly what some others here said a few months ago.

I'm not surprised at all considering the way R* have milked the same game for 3 generations and artificially inflated the unit sales by making it cheaper to get online currency by buying another copy rather than buying the currency itself.

1 million is a completely irrelevant number unless we know things like the development budget, marketing budget, how much Sony paid to support it etc.

That being said, if hype was equal to money in the bank the makers of this would be billionaires.

Lots of people are very vocal about how much they love it but, to me, it just seems like a fairly standard hack n slash with skimpy costumes.

@OldGamer999 I completely agree. Each system offers something quite different but nothing about Xbox or PlayStation this gen has massively impressed me so far. I do think that Switch has an incredible library of games but that's really forging its own path.

I also think that the PS5 hasn't really deserved the sales numbers it has achieved whereas Xbox has deserved more than it has achieved.

With this and all of the uncertainty around acquisitions and closures, it's a very strange generation to watch unfold.

@Splat Amazing game! I've always thought it deserved a sequel. I replayed it about a year ago on my Xbox and it still holds up well today.

That generation had so much on offer. It's why I recently hooked my PS3 back up to my main TV and also why Xbox backwards compatibility has been an absolute key feature for me.

@Toot1st I was on your side dude. I was pointing out the same thing by saying that the word legitimate was wrongly used.

Any game with an online focus should be on as many platforms as it can possibly appear on with cross play being an essential.

It would be great to see Splatoon and Helldivers 2 everywhere.

@Blofse Agreed. The Saturn was the absolute king for amazing 2D fighters. The Dreamcast was up there too if you have a region free system.

So many AMAZING games for both platforms. And that Saturn controller...........😍

@Llamada Sony haven't tried hard to move people away from PS4 at all! 😂

Those Switch hardware numbers are insane!

Given that Nintendo are keeping tight lipped on its successor and there's still plenty of first party and third party games in the pipeline, I actually think it could surpass the PS2 total.

@GeeEssEff True. I should give it a go before judging.

It's just the whole remake/remaster culture reminds me of that episode of South Park where they rip on Spielberg and Lucas for constantly "improving" their original movies.

@TheArt No I cancelled my Plus subscription a while ago. I have the PlayStation hits version of it on disc. Not that it matters.

@GeeEssEff I'm just very tired of the idea that every game needs to be remade/remastered if it doesn't hit 4K or 60fps or both. It's an absolutely pathetic 'gold standard' that people are obsessed with now.

Stop wishing for a games to be something they're not and enjoy them for what they are.

I own it but have never played it. I don't understand why it's regarded as as absolute classic if it's SO in need of a remake/remaster. Is the game's performance that bad??? It was on PS4 FFS! You can play it now on PS5 with no effort!

And if you don't want to play it as is, that suggests it wasn't that great to begin with and shouldn't be held in such high regard.

By the way, it's nothing like the PSOne remakes of RE2+3 which were several generations behind.

@Mikey856 You as in Sony. I don't work for Sony.

There's not really much point when Nintendo and Xbox have already shown all the games you have to show. 🤣

I've said it many times before but, I really like the direction that 'new' Atari is heading. Lots of nostalgia whilst also trying new things. And the 2600+ is a fantastic mini console that a lot of others could learn from.

This is why I said in a post on another article that it was worth waiting for the Nintendo Direct before judging all of the presentations.

Nintendo and Xbox absolutely nailed it in my opinion.

@IamJT Absolutely. The creative side of things is not where AI is needed.

Nintendo continues to be massively successful without creating games with ridiculous budgets. I know I'll probably have more fun playing Metroid Prime 4 than I will have playing anything released so far for PS5 and Series X.

I also think that AI can play a huge part in taking a lot of the grunt work away from developers and reduce costs. Microsoft is well placed to lead in that area next gen.

🫢 I'm not going to say a word.

@Ralizah I'm sure they own the rights to Wonderful 101 though and they definitely own the rights to Fatal Frame. The GoldenEye port to Xbox could never have happened without them allowing it to.

And of course they're going to protect their IP. No other publisher or hardware manufacturer has a comparable list of well known franchises that they have built over the last 40+ years. They build their hardware to make a profit from launch and believe it will sell machines. It doesn't always work of course but for every generational dip, they have a massive generational high.

Nintendo games don't cost hundreds of millions to make but they sell amazingly well meaning profit all the way.

Their hardware hasn't been the most powerful of a generation since the N64 but they still make money on every unit sold.

Their exclusives are far more important to their business model than anyone else.

@Specky Fantastic analogy for what is happening right across the games industry.

I'm so happy to see all 3 games getting the remake treatment. Wonderful games but they could all definitely do with some QoL improvements.

Things like this should happen more often.

@Ralizah They've dipped their toes in the water with things like The Wonderful 101, GoldenEye and Fatal Frame. Here's hoping there'll be more shared games in the future.

I haven't played any of their previous games but I'll definitely give this a go on Game Pass.

The footage makes the game look pretty dull to me. Like a weird combo of God of War and Spider-Man.

What an absolute non-story. 😂

@nomither6 @Toot1st And legitimate means 'genuine' or 'real'.

Helldivers 2 should be on Xbox.

@Savage_Joe The Summer Games Fest is it's own thing.

It has nothing to do with the Xbox, Ubisoft or PlayStation events. Completely separate. Nintendo is making its own show too in a few days. Why not wait? I'm fairly sure there will be PlayStation and Xbox announcements too.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner So why not hold off until that's happened?

@Savage_Joe But there will still be a Nintendo Direct to judge later this month. And considering a lot of games for PlayStation and Xbox are announced for Switch first it's worth paying attention to.

So Nintendo don't count?

I think more PlayStation games should move to Switch.

@TrickyDicky99 And people say she's just a big pair of tits.

@Ergoshotz I'm certain this is irony or sarcasm.
