Damn, this leak was more exciting for me than the recent showcase.
New Dragon's Dogma, Street Fighter AND Monster Hunter? Damn, Capcom! Leave something for the others.
From Square Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster is awesome but I would die if Final Fantasy IX were to receive a remake.
Big YES to all the following: Chrono Cross Remaster, BioShock 2022, Mirror's Edge Remaster, Untitled Respawn Game, Titanfall 3, Tekken 8, Crysis 4, XCOM 3, Mortal Kombat XII, Helldivers 2.
And still no Bloodborne for the PC crowd. Sony has that under lock deep in the chalice dungeons. Forget the patch, grant us a sequel set in Cainhurst, Loran or a different land entirely.
@naruball I'm talking about the dry-ass holiday season. The showcase overall was strong but no first party titles for the end of the year while Switch has Metroid Dread out in October, Shin Megami Tensei V (not first party but exclusive) and new Pokemon in November, Advance Wars in December. *****, even MS is releasing half of Halo Infinite in December and the new Forza on November. So yes, handing it over.
I have a lot of trust in Sony's teams but I was not expecting the rest of 2021 to be so bare but maybe some us got spoiled by the PS4 gen that seemed to have bangers for every season for a few years. That said the first half of next year is going to be insanely packed.
Basically sums up my feelings about the show. I expected Sony to at least have an ace for this holiday season but apparently they are handing it over to Xbox and Nintendo.
Wasn't a fan of CG-only trailers, ANOTHER Deathloop trailer or the Uncharted ps4 games remaster. I mean I will probably get Deathloop but did it really had to take up space if it releases next week?
I did like what I saw of Forsaken, Project Eve, Gran Turismo 7 (!), God of War: Ragnarok, Ghostwire Tokyo
Just to confirm, Holiday 2021 is going to be dry as hell, right?
NICE! I was just thinking we need more giant robot sims on consoles. I always thought the Mechwarrior franchise was, for some reason, owned by MS. Either way it's great to see a legendary franchise back on a Playastation console.
Toxic fanbase saves the day! Dumb decision from Sony on the first place (they did always say launch titles but oh well) but I hope this doesn´t create a precedent for entitled fans to complain about every little thing they don't like, like Snydercut fans that think they can flame and troll to get what they want. Ugh, man.
Death Stranding was Hideo Kojima trying to make a Hollywood movie and just slapped some subpar mechanics, borrowed MP elements from other games and called it a new game in the "social strand" genre, whatever that is.
Kojima just gives me Peter Molyneux vibes these days.
I get that Kojima is an "auteur" (in his view) but I would love for him to stop baiting players with fake gameplay and playing with expectations and using "HA, ART! as an excuse. I'm so ready for Sony to drop him and throw their budget towards better japanese devs instead.
I forgot about it completely. BG&E 2 will probably suffer the same fate. And that would be for the best as that game has a terrible case of feature-creep and lack of direction.
@Olmaz Butthurt western logic. Truth is China has lifted 100 million people out of poverty and has become the new economic engine for the world. Yes, the system HAS many problems, lots, but you can't tell me the predatory capitalist societies the rest of the world lives in are doing any better. In fact, they are doing worse, the west is broken economically and morally but still feel like they can lecture the rest of the world.
Explain to an afghan how the US is so much better than China. I believe they might differ.
DAMNNN. Chinese sekiroborne is now instantly on the top of my wanted list with Elden Ring. Seriously impressive skills and artistry on display by Game Science.
This generation is looking like graduation for Chinese game devs who are also bringing their own ideas. Still waiting for the english patch to try out Tale of Immortal on Steam.
Classy move, MS. I'm guessing this good will only extends as far as legacy titles but if they get MachineGames to make a new Dark Fantasy Quake I will seriously consider getting an xbox.
@awp69 on GamePass? The platform that is great for publishers and consumers but ***** developers in the butt? Yeah, I'd rather pay to support the devs of the games I like to play.
Oh no! The ***** overrated hack&slasher? The one that made all that fuss using mental health buzzwords to cover for the fact that it was a glorified vertical slice? That the one?
Yeah, MS can keep that one all to themselves.
EDIT: All these articles are so very click-baity. Of course the MIicrosoft-owned studio won't release an upgrade on another platform that isn't theirs. It's like the people that acted all surprised when Bethesda confirmed that Starfield was going to be an xbox exclusive. Well, ***** duh, Sherlock! (rant over)
Leave him be. He shoul be free to publish his pretentious ***** games on the platform that he prefers (or pays him more for it). Good riddance I say. This guy is so full of *****...
I'd prefer to not have the PS Store flooded with cheap indie games. The process they describe appears to be quite complicated but to put the blame on that for the game not succeeding is stretching it tbh. Want success? Then make interesting games and don't think you are entitled to succeed just because you are a "lil' brave" indy.
@DeepSpace5D I was going to say the same. Want to succeed on this platform: make more interesting games. I can't say I ever heard of any of their games besides Vigil, I think.
Isn't he making an Xbox exclusive next suppossedly? I read there is a letter of intent and everything. Hope that he doesn't scam our Xbros with another glorified walking simulator like he did Sony (which, to be fair, was really only an excuse to mingle with Hollywood types out of pure own-fart-smelling narcissism).
This feels like a late summer release at best. I don't think Koei wants it to drown between all the heavy-hitter releases coming out during the last quarter of the year.
@batwing47 In this case I think people can distinguish between CDPR devs and CDPR management but both make up CDPR as a whole so the whole studio's reputation is it because of CDPR mismanagement of the game's development as a whole. I think is fair to say that there are more than a bunch of devs at CDPR rethinking their career path, and CDPR still looks good on the ol' resume so I don't think they would have a problem finding work someplace else.
Excellent. These games do not need an easy mode. You want to experience the entire game? ENDURE or spend your money on a Lego game if you are not looking to be challenged.
Still haven't seen anything that would convince me to get an xbox, gamepass or otherwise. Maybe when I see Redfall gameplay but in the meantime I will continue gaming on PS5, still waiting for that elusive Bloodborne 60fps patch.
Well, that was fast. Square Enix locked its Twitter account just now according to DualShockers. Probably having to do with the horrible showing of Final Fantasy Origin.
"I want to kill Chaos. I need to. It's not a hope or a dream. It's like a hunger. A thirst."
That dialogue. The horror. The horror. The horror.
@Col_McCafferty Taking it all I still don't see enough to warrant purchasing a new Xbox. I'm not knocking MS at all, fanboysim and console wars are too tiring - been there, done that back in the PS2 days (and I still rented an XBOX from time to time to play MP Halo).
For me: Yes, GamePass has undeniable value in what it offers, but I don't plan on playing half of those games, and since I have very little gaming time as it is, I'd rather spend it in games I want to play not just what is available, which may or may not be of my liking. If I was 15-years old GamePass would be nirvana for me I'm sure but I just don't have to time anymore to fully enjoy it. That said, playing Prey, above 60 FPS, is a mighty attractive proposition.
Good. Now Sony has to work on their own Space exploration RPG.
That "25 years in the making" sound like PR bull***** though, but I bet Todd Howard said the same of Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim.

Re: Negotiations for Death Stranding Sequel Underway, Reveals Star Reedus

Kojima just gives me Peter Molyneux vibes these days.
Re: Negotiations for Death Stranding Sequel Underway, Reveals Star Reedus
