Gonna play…
🎶🎵 Astro Bot 🎵🎶

Only 2 galaxies in, but so far it’s an absolute 10/10. So inventive and joyful, and just the right level of challenge with plenty of casual fun but also tricky hidden bots and tougher platforming levels. 100% my game of the year, with Stellar Blade a close second.

$599 with a friggin’ disc drive and I’d be hittin’ that preorder button. I totally get that it’s expensive tech, but as a physical enthusiast, this thing is just not worth the cost for me with my limited game time these days.

Would have preferred a disc drive instead of 2TB. With the speed of internet (Pittsburgh, USA) deleting and re-installing games is not that big of a deal. No disk drive sucks…

Love Astro Bot so, SO much! Team Asobi knocked it out of the park, the city, the state, the country… you get it!
Definitely my Game of the Year, with Stellar Blade coming in a close second.

That’s wild—Sony “PowerStation” is NOT a good name!

@Sequel The mouse power-up is next-level; totally unexpected, fluid, and SO fun! Such an incredible game!

What an embarrassing, sad comment.
“Small game”… right…

Based on the reception of playroom alone, I think we could tell that the full game would be an absolute smash hit. Super excited to get stuck into it this weekend!

Ditch the live-service multiplayer cash-grabs, reel in the massive budgets and size of single-player games, and focus on some smaller projects that use existing IP’s in fun new ways. Nintendo’s new Zelda is a great example. Probably not that expensive to make given the graphics, but new and innovative, and likely going to sell like crazy.
Yeah, Sony needs to have some serious come-to-Jesus conversations.

Wowza. Yikes. Dang. Poor one out for Firewalk…

I’ve seen too much already!
Dog me up, Slitty!

Unlocking those bots in Playroom this weekend has me hyped for this coming weekend!

Jumped back in last night. The bots are SO hard to find, has to use the guide, but dang is Playroom such a fun game. And FREE! Best pack-in with a system since the good ol’ NES days!

This is an utterly insane amount of games!
Preordered:
-Astrobot
-Silent Hill 2
-Alan Wake II

Doesn’t he not work for Capcom anymore? So… who cares what he says about this? 🤷🏻‍♂️

No disc drive, no sale

Definitely have my eye on this. It seems quite unique (read: batsh*t crazy), and I really want to support this project—it’s Keiichiro Toyama!!! Hopefully they can polish up the combat before release.

“No, I don’t care about more Bloodborne”
HERETICS!!! 😵

Those soundtracks are truly iconic. Absolutely cannot wait for this—only one more month!

Sounds promising. I still want to replay this in the collection before release, so take your time and GET IT RIGHT!

The Portal is exactly what I wanted. I’d be interested in an updated version of that down the road. OLED screen, further reduced latency, improved connectivity, Edge-like upgrades for the controller, friggin’ bluetooth(!), improved battery life. I don’t have any interest in a dedicated handheld with its own games.

Would I love to have a more powerful PS5? Absolutely. But with such limited gaming time these days, it would be hard for me to justify the cost. Watch me buy one anyways though… 🙄☑️

This looks and sounds absolutely fantastic, and I think will be the Supermassive game that finally really grabs me. I love to hear that gameplay is more involved, and the shapeshifting alien storyline—while not totally original—should be a lot of fun to play through. This may be a day one for me!

I’m excited to play this down the road. The idea of having a lot more unique boss fights than your typical soulslike, and cutting down the number of enemies leading up sounds refreshing. As much as I love exploring and finding new weapons and gear, 75% of the time they don’t work for your build… Anyways this sounds great. Hopefully we get a patch or two to tidy up the input lag issues.

I am SO excited for this, had it preordered since… I forget. My gut tells me this is going to be Bloober’s moment.
Radio! What’s going on with that radio?!

Performance mode + motion blur off ☑️

So pumped for this. Death Stranding is an absolute masterpiece!

Ha! Come on Bloober, knock it out of the park! They got this, and we got an amazing game to play in October.

@fleenerstrunk Nice! All fantastic games. I finish very few these days, between being pressed for time and SO many great ones coming out. Did finish Stellar Blade this year though!

Wasn’t wow-ed by this game the first time I played it, so I wouldn’t buy this remake no matter how much it cost.

In the middle of…

-Baldur’s Gate 3
-Lords of the Fallen
-FF7Rebirth
-Armored Core VI
-Tunic

Yeah… And I kind if just want to reinstall Alien: Isolation to prepare for seeing Romulus on Monday…

Really hoping this turns out great 🤞🏼

I do think that Veilguard is looking pretty great, but I won’t be playing it anytime soon bc I’m invested in finishing like 4 other games—one of them being Baldur’s Gate 3!

Least favorite Final Fantasy by a wide margin. Remaster trilogy (if anything) and move on please.

1. Star Renegades
2. Returnal
3. Into the Breach

I was OBSESSED with Star Renegades. Put in dozens of hours over PS5 and Switch. Such a fantastic game. Challenging, tactical combat, awesome pixel art and character design, and so, so much personality. Can’t believe the game didn’t even show up in the system to be rated… 😭

@DETfaninATL Always wanted to try Mooncrash. Prey is fantastic, and I can see how it would make an excellent roguelike.

Will definitely play the Evil Dead game. No desire to be Michael Myers though lol

Never played the original somehow, so this is definitely on my radar. Looks fantastic!

Dude needs to go back to a flip-phone—no social media capabilities!
Boom problem solved!

PS direct in US still has ‘em available. No queue!

Hubbub, indeed! Heart pounding, frantically checking websites in my phone and laptop, with support from cool dudes on the PushSquare community, was able to snag one from Target. I became 10 years old again. Most beautiful PS5 controller by a long shot!

Oh and I’m excited for the game too…

Shout out to Target’s online store! I was able to order my launch PS5 from them, Amiibo preorders, and now this controller. They always come through!

@Americansamurai1 @RBmango Thanks for trying to help.

EDIT: Available again at Target in US! Got one!

@RBMango Where?!! Cant find listing!

@RBMango Yep what a sh*t show. I can’t even sign in properly, not can I see a button to add to cart. Wow…

EDIT: now sold out on Target. You are VERY lucky! 🤪

@DrVenture69 The day I discovered how to filter DLC out of the PSstore sales was a great day! 🙌🏼 Enjoy!

Sounds like an interesting time. Can’t beat the price. Definitely might check it out

Looks like a s****like ☑️

So what you’re saying is my druid gnome is not a popular choice? lol

@ShogunRok Hey thanks for answering, appreciate it! This game looks brutal and awesome, and single-player campaign is what I needed to hear. Cheers!
