@Keyblade-Dan It's driving me nuts, too. I really don't understand it.

@LowDefAl Freedom Wars is still Sony's IP, though. The trailers for the remaster all say "under license from SIE".

(But I get your point, the original creators wanted to revisit it, which makes the situation a bit different.)

@LifeGirl I mean, why wouldn't you take the free money? Sure, it's not much, but it's better than nothing. I honestly can't understand ignoring it when there's free cash available for just clicking a button.

Yeah I don't see the cash rewards either. Makes me wonder why the hell I was saving up for the £20 option when I could have just individually got the £5s.

@Shad361 Digital sales aren't included for 2K25 which is hurting its chart placement a lot here.

Great result for Astro Bot!

Nixxes might actually be the best studio Sony acquired haha.

I really like the Welcome Hub.

Man this looks so bloody good, and the original was already extremely beautiful. What an upgrade!

@Drago201 It's not compulsory to watch the livestream. They need to try and sell their game!

@Medic_alert Yep, I think you're spot on. The bubble gives the illusion that everyone wants a certain thing, or is against a certain other thing. Then the market at large tells a totally different story.

@AdamNovice Was literally just about to say the same thing.

A smaller-scale game with a smaller price point that was universally praised and... No one bought it and the team got disbanded.

So much for making smaller games!

There's too many games, but this does look amazing. I will play this at some point.

Thanks for the review, Henry! It's a shame this doesn't really come together because it looks like a great idea!

@Fishnpeas 🥱

@Oram77 It's a great game based on what I've played. I think people are going to be surprised.

Back when Sony was making Killzone, all of the comments on this site were about how everyone hated Killzone.

It's so funny how we come full circle.

@Oram77 I mean, that's how these things work. It will detect which system you're playing on.

While I wouldn't trust Bungie as far as I could throw them, I always find the takes in threads like this one nauseating.

@Bomberman64 It has a fixed camera perspective.

@DualWielding I mean, it's always going to be down to the developer.

And to be fair, they've done exactly that: Performance mode on PS5 Pro is an improved version of Quality mode on PS5 at 60fps.

The only alternative would be to tell Remedy they can't experiment with the raytracing, which is ridiculous.

@Medic_alert Yeah! Something we've been looking at actually!

I always prefer 60fps, but the raytracing looks real nice.

I really like how they broke down all their decisions with this. The game looks great!

@Afroducc You are being a grumpy Gus. We got seven Uncharted games and a remaster collection in ten years. No one complained then.

@Titntin No word on PS5 Pro but I'd be surprised if they didn't support it in some way. Watch this space!

It's really sad but unfortunately they just had no other choice. Sylens is so important to the plot.

@ChrisDeku Could have been similar to Stellar Blade, yes.

@Afroducc There's been three Horizon games in seven years, one of which is a VR spin-off. This is also a spin-off really.

@AhmadSumadi Completely agree.

@NarutosBiggestFan It looks like there's different characters to unlock, yes.

I didn't find any collectibles, which surprised me as I was expecting that to be a big thing based on the previous games.

It doesn't seem like there are unique abilities, but again, we only got to play about 90 minutes from the start of the game.

To me, it seems a little different to other LEGO games; much more focused on gameplay than collectibles and unlockable areas.

@Max_the_German Nope, I don't mean that!

@Frmknst I mean, that's just your opinion, though. I'd say they generally do a very good job with the games they sign.

@Kraven I've been much the same with the LEGO games. Love them conceptually, but never had much fun actually playing them.

This one was fun for me.

@DonJorginho Come back when you've played this one. 👍

Any questions about the game at all, let me know! I had so much fun playing this!

Their games weren't even "sh*tty" to be fair. I mean, if you go back to the stuff they were making for PS Vita, maybe. But from Layers of Fear I think their games were fine, some of them even pretty good.

I was going to say, I wonder if they're just going to make the Venom game.

This is impressive. If this game ends up as good as it looks, it could be massive.

@Gewertzx Personally I like Horizon and don't like Baldur's Gate. But you don't see me entering every BG3 thread crapping on it, do you?

You're entitled to your opinion, of course — but perhaps stop trying to tell everyone else they're wrong.

Plenty of people enjoy this game; let them enjoy it.

Yeah I think it looks cool but I'm not really sure who's going to buy and play it. And it appears to be online-only so...

@McBurn "Personally I find the article a little misleading."

Why? The price to play on day one, for a lot of games, is getting higher than $70 now.

@Northlander "The whole gaming industry is on a course of self destruction."

I'm not sure I agree really. I think we'd see a drop-off in consumers paying for these Ultimate Editions if that was the case, but from my observation — and I don't have data to support it — feels like more and more are coughing up.

I bet the average selling price for successful games in their first month is now higher than $70.

@Dadou Great game!

Eve bot! Let's go!

@CieloAzure To be fair, if they bring the sequels out quicker, people complain they're milking the franchises. Can't win.

@Tecinthebrain Aren't the original actors way too old to be in a teen slasher now? Malek is like 40, right?

@twitchtvpat Seems likely doesn't it? Maybe a trailer for the movie at The Game Awards and then an announcement of the sequel?

On the subject of the actual movie, I think this is probably the easiest adaptation they're going to do. All it needs to be is your average teen slasher and it works fine as an Until Dawn film.

Reviews will almost certainly be bad but budget will probably be low and will likely make a nice profit if it's competent and well marketed.

I feel like Bamco’s been on a bit of a roll recently, so this is extra concerning.

It’s a really great game, too! I hope more of the ill-fated PS2 on PS4 titles get updated.
