This was leaked 2 months ago and I’ve been hyped ever since. Comes with a story quest that gets new story weekly 7 weeks long. Doing each weekly set gives a dragon ball and cosmetics. The mythic weapon “kamehameha” will be added + new DBZ based vechicles like clouds. The skins are supposedly goku, vegata, beerus and bulma.
@rachetmarvel I heard it sold a lastillion copies which is just shy of the morbillion tickets morbius sold. Sony is truly on a streak here with this games and morbius. The question is will TLOU1R and kraven the vegan outsell TLOU2 and morbius.
EDIT: before someone calls me a “troll”. I enjoyed both morbius and TLOU2. But I wouldn’t call TLOU2 a “GOAT” contender, not even close.
Doubt. Neil is known to lie about leaks being true or false + there’s no way fortnite won’t have more tie ins for sony. 100% sure they go the uncharted route for both TLOU and twisted metal by adding the show/movie skins as a tie in with the styles being 2 game skins.
Got the platinum for God of War 4 last week and beat chains of olympus. Replaying Infamous Second Son now while also playing a bit of Fortnite on my switch. Gonna probably start God of War Ghost of Sparta and Forza Horizon 1 or 3 soon.
Beat God of War 4 yesterday and trying to get the platinum now.
Besides that still trying to get the fallguys fortnite skin, thought I had until the 17th but apparently it ends the 10th.
Other than those I’ll probably start something new, thinking about final fantasy 7, wild arms or trails of cold steel 1.
@GymratAmarillo remaster implies they run natively which they don’t.
EDIT: also didn’t mean to start “drama”, was moreso meant that these new psp additions run on the same emulator but do not use the benefits of the emulator in question.
EDIT2: also the article points out midnight carnaval is emulated as opposed to the original 2 being remasters. Which was what I responded to in the first place since the original 2 are emulated too on the same emulator.
@get2sammyb want to let you know. The original psp “remasters” on ps4/5 run on the same emulator as the new psp games. The difference is the new games aren’t using the tools this emulator offers like the “remasters” do. It was datamined years ago that games like locoroco, patapon and parappa the rapper run on an emulator and sony falsely markets them as straight up remasters and remakes.
@LiamCroft I would agree if it’s just things like battle passes, DLC and skins and stuff but once it’s loot boxes we are talking about the hormonal kick your brain gets due to gambling. That’s not healthy. But yeah lootboxes appear less and less and I have no issues with people spending tons on fortnite ASSUMING they can actually miss that money.
@LiamCroft XIII-2 and lightning returns are definitely worth it to get to. Whereas most FF fans hate 13 most fans (that played it) love 13-2. Lightning returns has fans more divided usually due to a gameplay gimmick you’ll see when you get there. Hope you end up enjoying the trilogy!
Playing yakuza 5 ps4 at the moment on my ps5 which I’m about halfway through with.
Also bought tiny tina’s wonderlands at a sale for ps5 for €25 which I’ll be playing after. It’s actually my first ps5 game I bought myself new/not used since my launch pre orders, all my other pickups where either used or gifts.
Besides that I am still playing fire emblem fates birthright on my 3ds, animal crossing new horizons on my switch and forza horizon 5 on my XSX.
Also @liamcroft how are you enjoying FFXIII? I personally thought it was bad, especially not close to how people described it. Later on it really picks up the pace IMO.
@LiamCroft part of the FIFA EA leaks from last year that predicted all this said that the license for FIFA would go to take-two/2K sports and that it would start with FIFA 2K24 alongside a lego FIFA 2K game.
Several of these games actually got a next gen patch on XSX, including fallout 4, the yakuza games and AC origins. Fallout 4 for obvious reasons, the yakuza games just released that way on xbox (60fps instead of 30fps), AC origins is the weirdest case here as there’s no reason for ps5 not to get the patch.
@get2sammyb in terms of value MS and xbox do it sort of better where a developer can give a value between 1 and 1000 to an achievement as long as the total amount for a game adds up to 1000 pre updates or dlc.
The issue here is no one is stopping devs from making games with a single 1000GS achievement and adding extra 1000GS achievements in updates.
Playing fire emblem fates birthright on my 3DS. Not liking it as much as awakening so far but still a great game.
Gonna finally start yakuza 5 on my ps4/5. Only have 5, 6, LaD and dead souls left to play. Played all other games including the 2 judgment games and fist of the north star already.
On xbox I might start mass effect 3, and next week I’ll play yoku’s island express.
Xbox has some good live services like sea of thieves, fallout 76 and forza horizon 5. But most of them are mediocre or badly supported. And going by GT7 and destruction all stars I doubt sony will handle it much better. Not looking forward to them but I am curious about what bungie will make specifically.
@ATaco atleast the expected life expectancy of blu ray discs are 100 years. And cartridges that don’t have an internal battery even longer.
Digital is as long as the servers are up and I doubt servers will stay up for 100+ years. 20+ years is even a maybe when it comes to sony and nintendo.
“Of course, it should be noted that the original arrived at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, meaning attendance at movie theatres was pretty much rock bottom.”
Sonic 1 released in theaters about 2 weeks before the world started taking covid-19 seriously and started doing lockdowns.
Majority crusader kings sales being on playstation is surprising if it also counts digital and UGP downloads. It probably doesn’t but I wonder what the percentage will look like if UGP was counted towards the number.
Would love all wild arms games to be available since they’re sony first party games. Besides that ofcourse most if not all sony owner games. For third party stuff suikoden, most if not all NISA, konami, capcom and square enix games for ps2 and psp would be great too.
Like I said in the leak post. Good variety, 3 well recieved games, not everyone’s cup of tea ofcourse but definitely a great month.
Don’t sleep on slay the spire.
EDIT: and if the leak article is anything to go by. If you don’t like these games that doesn’t make it a bad month, and nowhere close to “the worst month ever”. You can’t have a win every month but to me a winning ps+ month is one that offers good a variety of genre’s and well recieved games.
Good varied month with a quality selection. If people hate on this it’s just not games that are for them IMO. This is one of the better months with how varied it is.
It’s a turn based JRPG by ILCA who also made last year’s pokemon remakes. Doesn’t bode well but from what I gathered the poke remakes had less then a year of total development including pre production and this games had a few years of active development.
@LN78 ah yes that’s because of investors having discovered the game market. Let me tell you, as a collector on a budget it hasn’t been fun anymore. Wish the second hand market would crash personally, rather have my collection be worth nothing but everyone being able to buy, play and enjoy the rare games I have (and vica versa for me) than having a high value collection but so many games not being accessible if you don’t invest in or care for emulation.
Normally I wouldn’t mind but with fallen order 2, the SW strategy game, the SW first person shooter, ME4, DA4, dead space remake and skate 4 this year would’ve been fire for EA play live.
@Amnesiac I’m sure it’ll get a BC version when project spartacus launches since the game is a sony IP and was made by sony japan studios. But since it was made by SJS I doubt we’ll ever get a sequel, remake or proper remaster.
@Lup it’s really good so far. Also surprisingly beautiful for a 1st year ps3 game. And yeah it’s hard to get everywhere, metal jesus calling it a hidden gem 7 years ago already made it hard to find and when the news dropped that the ps3 store would shut down it became practically impossible.
Continuing tokyo mirage sessions #FE encore on the switch and after a few years of wanting to play it I finally started playing folklore on the ps3. Also a bit of muse dash on the switch here and there

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 436
Finished up Forza horizon 1, infamous second son, stray and the awesome adventures of captain spirit in the past few days.
Currently playing Life is Strange 2 and the plan is to play God of War Ghost of Sparta after that.
Re: No Free PS4 to PS5 Upgrade Path for Persona 5 Royal
It was to be expected for 2 reasons.
1.) it has all dlc packed in.
2.) it’s sega
Not that’s it’s ok, there’s plenty of games that gave the free upgrade despite the upgrade version having dlc packed in.
Re: Poll: Are You Playing Stray?
More of a dog person but cats are great too. Want to play stray but gonna finish up forza horizon 1 and infamous second son first.
Re: DreamsCom 22 Brings an Entire In-Game Expo to Dreams on 26th July
