Very good price for this definitely will be tempted loved Suda's PS3 era work. Anybody got an idea how much Lollipop will be?

@Jaz007 I know netflix has games but i have no idea how to download them! Its more me not playing games on my phone then anything but the game side of netflix is not really advertised clearly by them.

I think the gaming industry is in a tough spot at the moment. Xbox did have a couple of different looking games. But all shows seem to have same looking games how many soulslike games did we see last week. There were at least 3 5v5 team PVP shooters. We dont seem to get to much new and exciting as I have said many times before this gen seems to be Remakes, Sequels and Souls likes.

@PuppetMaster totally agree the PS3/360 era was a lot more exciting then the current generation. I would add Binary Domain, Darksiders, Dantes Inferno and Enslaved to the list as well. Not many games make you feel like a crazy badass these days most modern action games have very down to earth combat.

My opinion is Microsoft had a good selection of games to show did get me a little excited which is something Sony hasn't done for a while. One of the negatives was that there was not a lot of gameplay in a lot of the trailers which Sony is usually better at it. Sony's problem is they are being so tight lipped about everything I think a lot of people would be a lot happier if Sony had trailers and announcements for a couple games that are further out. We don't need to know every game they are making but one or two would go a long way to build a little bit of hype.

So it seems like hack and slash and crazy combo action games have become niche genres for some reason. As I have said multiple times why does every action need to be souls like its boring now. Been duped so many times last few weeks seeing these games in cool settings then show the combat as souls like. As others said this is the 6th or 7th similar looking setting game we have seen in 2 weeks surely a lot these will fail due to oversaturation.

@QiaraIris Interesting does sound a lot different to what they showed. No idea why they made it look like another soulsborne as it would have turned a lot of people of the game myself included.

Aaahhh the dreaded soulsbourne word well there goes my interest. Can any developer make an action game without making it "soulsborne" weirdly last one i can remember is Final Fantasy XVI that how bad the industry has gotten.

With the huge number leaving this is a very poor selection. Cat Quest games are really good but platinumed both so no use to me.

I think I am in the same boat as a lot of people suscribed to extra for remainder of my sub. I just don't have time to make use of it have such a big backlog never get chance to really use it. Will be downgrading down to essential in September.

Extra is good value for money if you have lots of free time and no backlog. I signed up to extra for the rest of my sub which runs out in September but I will drop down to essential as I dont have enough time to get through the games I have purchased let alone the many games on extra.

Happy with Tunic. Ghostrunner 2 seems to have come to plus quite quickly with the first also being on plus a while ago. I like the look of the games just know I will be useless at them!

Still not returning the paid content they took away from people. Until they do that wont touch a Bungie game. One the worst decisions Sony made buying Bungie

@Flaming_Kaiser I love the games they are very pleasant with lots of Cat and Dog puns. There is a demo on the PS store for the first game which should give you an idea if its for you.

Shame these packs arent for the PSVR 1 version did have a lot of fun with the PSVR 1 version.

Do feel there was a massive falling out between Sony and Clap Hanz. Easy come Easy golf isn't out on Sony consoles but out on the switch. Not a big golf fan but put so many hours into the Everbodys golf games over the last few generations. Loved the PS2 one where you could play as Ratchet and Jak.

@Flaming_Kaiser You did get some cosmetics free in the battle pass I never paid for the battle bass and think I got 6 cosmetics and a character but there were about 35 levels on the pass so a low % was free. It is a shame as if they got the monetisation right could have some legs but I played for one season and a few games into the second season then dropped it.

There did seem a weird amount of hate towards this game even before it came out. I am not a big multiplayer fan but had fun with this but the MTX were crazy prices. Battle pass wasnt to bad at £4.99 but the outfits and other stuff was massively overpriced.

Destiny 3 needed to happen 3 or 4 years ago they needed it on a new engine to remotely do what they wanted to do content wise. There choice to continue pumping stuff out for Destiny 2 has alienated alot of players.

The only reason I can come up with for Hitman being so high is there is 2 Hitman films but neither set the world alight

Hard to get excited about more sequels, remakes, remasters and souls like games.

In Russia video game console plays you!

Hopefully the 2 people in the comments that are interested in it pump enough money into the micro transactions to keep the servers up for more then 12 months. I have played a very small amount of Overwatch but boy does that look a lot like overwatch!

Immortals was a bit hard done by in my opinion I enjoyed my time with it and it looks stunning in some places.

@rjejr Think you might be out of luck sounds like servers might be down for at least another 8 hours!

I am very torn on this one love Vanillaware stuff just not a big Strategy RPG fan. Think the big question does the food still look as amazing as in other vanillaware games?

Last black friday you could get physical copies of Forspoken for £10 picked up a copy myself and is currently in my ever increasing backlog!

I think its a lot to do with money and time. A lot of people who have the income to buy new games also don't have the time as they work or have families. A lot of games these days are at least a minimum of 30 hours to complete. I used to buy a lot of games day one I cant remember the last big game i bought day one that wasnt an indie. I am a huge FFVII fan but I havent bought rebirth.

I like a lot of people i expect have a big backlog that seems never ending and with games getting reduced very quickly it seems wiser to wait then play day one, as usually there are a few bugs day one as well so when you get round to playing it is usually fully patched.

@TwoDents And multiple people have expressed the same opinion as me but I havent told anyone else there opinion is irrelevant. I and other people are putting across why it feels like there has been lots of entries. Its fine you don't see them all as entries but other people do. Again my opinion, so again sorry if you think its wrong all the games and expansions even the VR game have been heavily advertised by Sony (where I live anyway) when they were released which again would cause the effect of over saturation

@TwoDents Thanking for letting me know my opinion is irrelevant I stand fully corrected I will consult with you in the future if I ever try and have another opinion. Hopefully your day is now wonderful now that you have establlished yours is the only opinion that matters.

@TwoDents Not sure what narrative you think I am "Pushing" I was pointing out that Horizon had 5 products out in the last 7 years. Actually praising them that the expansions are substantial and not quick cash grabs. My opinion the expansions are of good length and quality they should be considered proper entries. Sorry other people don't agree with that but thats my opinion.

@PsBoxSwitchOwner Most of those are MMO's which is a whole different beast. Not sure where Spiderman, GT and Star Ocean come into it. As Horizons expansions are quite substatial not 2 or 3 hour expansion.

@get2sammyb 5 games in 7 years is actually a lot apart from annual sports games and COD can you name another franchise that has that many entries in the last 7 years?

Sifu is very good but already played it others dont really do anything for me so a dud for me this month but last couple of months havent been too bad so can't complain.

@Darylb88
As taco said there has been an easy mode added and it still gave me a challenge but a managable challenge. I hate souls like games as well but would recommend this.

@Decoy_Snake Oni on PS2 was made by Bungie so they had been on playstation before Destiny

What a bizarre article all round. I have no idea why push square has brought this up was there an article each time the Uncharted games were released? I know some people seem to think trophies are the be all and end all but dont think I have ever seen anyone complain about the name of the trophy!

Was a whole different story when Microsoft made PUBG a timed exclusive to xbox. The only people that helped was Fortnite allowed them to suck up playstation players who couldnt play PUBG and now look at the two games fortunes.

Surely Redfall should have been there equivalent but they messed it up. Sony should release a ctyptic statement saying they will release some PS games on Xbox then just release MLB.

@Ainu20
Thank you for letting me know my opinion is wrong and yours is right. I would be interested to know what game you thought in the first 3 months got PS5 the most attention in the gaming press.

It does seem Sony dosent even know what its fans want if they think Astro is not an established or Major IP. Basically Astro Bot carried the PS5 in the early days everyone was talking how great the haptics and everything was. With the Haptics i dont think any other game has come close to Astro Bot.

@BorntobeGeek75
I wouldn't get your hopes up about the everybodys games. I dont think things are great between Sony and Clap Hanz seeing Easy Come Easy Golf isnt on Sony systems yet!

If there was a new 1st party IP dropping in the next 12 months we should have heard something about it as it would be a new IP you would have to build hype a bit more then an established IP. You cant drop a trailer 2 months before release and hope that carries it.

I seriously dont understand all the hate the game gets. I enjoyed the game it was one of the best looking games I played last year. It was a huge risk but least they tried something new and not another sequel, remaster or soulslike. But as others said have to question the £40million marketing budget what did this actually pay for?

I thought Knuckles was the worst part of the last Sonic movie thought he was written poorly and didnt go much on Idris voicing him.

Why couldn't they make Cait Sith an accompanying character!

Any early impressions on Foamstars are the servers holding up? I remember fall guys releasing on ps plus at the servers couldnt cope

I am sure they can crank out a couple more remasters before last of us 3

@Titntin Thats a fair point but just proves my point more that most big studios don't seem to have any originallity in them which is very disappointing to me.

Basically the show showed 2nd and 3rd party is doing all the heavy lifting at the moment for Sony. I have no idea why they cant tease something from one of there big studios just to give the fans something. This also extends to VR with Sony still not producing any games for PSVR2 not even a token PSVR2 version of Astrobot.

The showcase showed the industry is in a bit of a rut with most games being sequels, remakes/remasters or souls likes. Least Judas looked new and interesting. But it does seem what most fans want going by the reaction to this article.

Dave the diver is already out on Switch isnt it? Sony seems very late to the party on some of these big indie games. Still hasn't got Vampire survivors but that maybe more to do with Microsoft then Sony.
