Sounds good for those who like it, not for me though, even if it is now free.

Considering Super Smash Brothers is terrible itself, this must really be bad.

I'm guessing £489 Disc £449 Digital

@lacerz
I had the money upfront to buy a PS2, but chose to use a finance deal, as I foud it useful. I paid for it within the timeframe and paid no interest. It's not idiotic if you know how to handle your financial affairs correctly.

@RBMango
Yeah what's the story with that, drinking too much again, or something more serious?

@nessisonett
I agree, and if they also had Sakaguchi back - even as a consultant - it would be amazing

If they're stuck price wise, after Microsoft's Xbox price reveal. Sony can pull the base out of each box, drop the ps5 price by £20 and flog the base on its own for £29.99 🤣

It's a new studio, I say give them a break, as you say they haven't been given much of a budget, so it explains why it's not Resi remake visuals. Judge them on the end result.

I saw this earlier.
I really hope it was the case that 505 had relented and meant to gift previous purchasers with both The Ultimate Edition now and then later the upgrade for the PS5.

As in: that they wanted to at least get some good PR from it, so had some kind of embargo to announce it later, but some chuckle brother hit the upgrade switch early and then reset it afterwards. If that's the case, they're not having much luck no matter what they do.

Not hugely fussed on any of them.

I'm expecting £450 but would be willing to go to £499.

I quite like the initial loading screens, and the fact you can take a screenshot and use it as a theme if you time it correctly.

There has been a little too much enthusiasm on here lately for 'playing devil's advocate' and 'Aren't dodgy publishers/their dodgy practices actually really good?' Little too much Brow-Nosing going on than I'd like to see.

12/15 Surprised how many I hadn't seen before, was expecting a jogcon in there.

[Grumpy old voice] See how you kids ruined gaming by buying into online multiplayer, MMOs, digital only consoles, lootboxes levelled enemies etc... what's going to to be next?..the thing YOU don't like?

Considering a lot of people's reaction to the awful Beta you would have thought they would have dropped such nonsense. No thanks.

Mostly useless, highlights for me were Lego Skywalker Saga, Ratchet & Clank and Sam & Max.

@Shepherd_Tallon
Yeah, if you live outside the US they'll cancel the order.

Pity, I'll not be buying it until it has a physical copy.

@SirAngry
Exactly DLC isn't GAAS, it's bad enough on it's own along with games needing day one patches to actually make them playable, but the latter is another example of the industry going down the ****hole.

@FearIsUseful
Disgraceful!

@Cloud39472
That's not full price it's an artificially inflated price.
Thankfully not true anyway.
For instance in the 90's the cost of games went through the roof due to similar greed. I remember Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 at £80 odds for example. People stopped buying new games as much until the prices eventually returned to normal.
Publishers and retailers need reminded every few years that the games industry is healthier when games are a reasonable price allowing customers to buy more titles in a year

@Diamond1980
Maybe to find your own words instead of parroting the same tired old phrases to wind people up.

@LiamCroft
I think it's totally fair assessment. The whole point of the intro is to get you interested in the game and it's pretty awful with clunky controls and a camera you're constantly fighting. It doesn't get much better after that and I'm sick of loot nonsense already after only just catching up on my games backlog to find loads of games doing it.

@Cloud39472
£50?...Certainly not at launch if the prices on Amazon for next gen titles turn out to be correct.
I just love how PS4 games have shot up to £50 or more so they have an excuse to add another £10 again on top of that for PS5 games.
That said, there's no way I'l be paying even £50 for this despite how good it looks.

@get2sammyb
'fazed'

@kyleforrester87
Totally agree about the multi disc cases.
Bring back manuals too, this seems lazy.

Ugh I noticed they were doing stupid...um..stuff with the new Crash Bandicoot at £54.99 on Amazon, just so they could bump it up by another tenner.
Not gonna fall for it again after paying for Mortal Kombat 3 for £80 odds and then the ultimate version came soon afterwards. Back to taking the preverbial and I want no part in it.

Can't say I'm a fan of heavy involvement with indie studios, it's great in theory as long as there's quality control, but it always seems to devolve into shovelware.
Switch is particularly bad at the moment.

Knew it was a good idea to hold out, definitely going to get it after the update.

'Salty' 'Cry babies' 'Snowflakes' etc.
I can't stress enough how sick I am of people on either sides of arguments clogging up comments on articles using repetitive cliched internet buzzwords.
Be it games, politics or whatever else, both sides seem to think the insult was made exclusively to mean the type of people they're arguing against and never them.
At least use original insults and not copy other phrases in a kneejerk fashion, it doesn't make anyone look particularly intelligent.

Finally! The black controller looks cool.

@GADG3Tx87
I've never clicked with Persona, but I get what you mean, hope it works out for you

That was fun, really annoyed I missed Alundra, didn't notice it as an option and it's one of my favourite PSX games grrr (to myself)

Yes, as long as it's not the weird bendy armed bad art design that is usually the case with games at the start of a generation. That really irks me, environment looks great but character design always looks 2 generations old. I don't know if developers get told to tone things down and pace things out across a consoles lifespan or not, but normally the first few games look pretty bad.

I know it's greedy to want it to do everything, but that's what made the original batch of PS3s so great. They played CDs/DVDs/BDs and PSX/2/3 games, that was exactly what I wanted, and also why I was so disappointed with PS4.
Ideal solution - in my mind - would be the equivalent now for PS5 whilst also supporting Now and the various digital options for people who don't like to retain physical media, best of both worlds.

@FullbringIchigo
'Moot point'
I agree with a lot of what you're saying though, you're pretty much pinning down a lot of stuff people have missed about the story.

Fun game but watch out for bugs, had to replay it 3 times for the platinum.
Excellent freebie though!

Have to say I had exactly zero interest in the game until seeing that.
Efficient fighting, flicking blood off the sword, Japanese language option and b/w filter shows they've been taking this seriously, and it still feels like a Sucker Punch game. Definitely getting this day one.

How about both, a CGI intro then gameplay finishing with CGI, or if there's an especially impresive bit of game play...that.

@daveofduncan
Late response to PT maybe?

@FullbringIchigo
Read the interview with Jason Ronald on Eurogamer.
"Ultimately, that's a developer choice. And to be clear, there will be titles that are unique or exclusive to the Xbox Series X generation. The Medium is a great example of that."

@Fuzzymonkeyfunk
Apparently Medium at least is next gen only

Scorn looked interesting, but just CGI.
Medium is probably the most interesting, but Soul Reaver did the zip between versions of the world on PSX, can't see anything there that couldn't be done by current gen games. Not particularly impressed I'm sad to say.

I'd like to see a remakes or a sequel to Tombi! & Tombi! 2

PS3 port for ps5 maybe?

I don't understand, why do you all like it? Squenix seem to have tried....for a bit. It was ok until it got to seventh heaven. Then all that typical Squenix filler stuff.
Has no one else noticed they relegated the original music to random areas? Or those stupid remixes. The rest, the awful composer from FFXIII? The expanded stuff? Embarrassing. That Speed Demon character, exactly what's been so bad about FF games since FFXII!
Admittedly, I'm not far in but I don't think it'll get better.

No Final Fantasy VII Remake this weekend thanks to Amazon's policy of fulfilling new preorders before ones made years ago.
So playing Grim Fandango Remastered instead.

@AdamNovice
I feel your pain.

Can't give it a score, as Amazon still haven't sent me my copy yet, not expected to get it until next Friday despite preordering it in 2016.
