@huyi What are you even saying and the fact that four people agreed with you is abhorrent. I feel like I am living in bizarro World sometimes.
You are complaining about services and then complaining about full price games in the same breath? Or in your incoherent rant where you trying to refer to games as a service?
Yeah because every PlayStation game is a game as a service just like forbidden West and God of War two of the three major exclusives releasing this year. Tf is wrong with people?
@DualWielding The is that game pass has been around for years and PlayStation Plus premium doesn't start until June......
This was literally the first announcement and they already tossed out three major games. Even the article here claims that Sony is making a huge effort to improve the offerings so why would you think it's only going to be whatever is on PlayStation now?
Maybe wait until they give us more information before polishing Microsoft's knob and doubting Sony?
Just like the Ratchet & Clank movie it's disheartening to see hardcore gaming fans react with so much venom. These films aren't masterpieces but they do nothing to hurt the source material and if you love the IP it's still a good time to see references from the games you enjoy.
I think Tom Holland would have been perfect if they continued the story from the Uncharted 3 flashbacks but as a mature Nathan Drake he just isn't suited. Regardless, we have all had time to process this and I'm generally over it. I accept that the casting and script are not what I wanted and I can absolutely enjoy the movie for what it is. A highly produced and solid action flick with Uncharted references.
This film was in development hell for years so just the fact that Sony is able to produce a serviceable and successful film is a win despite hardcore Uncharted snobs being disappointed. Moviegoers are enjoying it and it's filling seats.
I can't stand the people who give Resident Evil raccoon City a pass by saying that it intentionally had poor production quality and was intentionally bad in order to achieve a campy vibe. Stop. The Uncharted movie certainly isn't a masterpiece but it at least has quality production value and is a good time. If Uncharted was not in the title this movie would be 10 to 15 points higher on Metacritic. It's vastly superior to the likes of the original Tomb Raider and national treasure films. Well it's still doesn't hold a candle to Indiana Jones it is a more than serviceable treasure hunting adventure that audiences will enjoy. Hardcore Uncharted snobs will never accept it and even myself to a degree is disappointed in the casting and script but the movie isn't garbage. It's no worse than any other highly produced popcorn action flick.
@Dodoo They are already doing it by taking Bethesda games away. Phil Spencer lies constantly yet he's still the good guy. He was disgusted with Activision and reevaluating their relationship and two months later he acquires them. He says Bethesda games will come out on a game by game basis and then a month later he insinuates that every game going forward will be exclusive and the media runs with it.
I love the fear mongering about Sony becoming Sega.
Yet they are launching new hardware holiday or later. If they were going multiplatform why wouldn't they just make games for Oculus?
Why make deals for Sifu, FFXVI, Forspoken, Stray, ect. Acquiring Bungie wouldn't occur if they wanted to lock down destiny. PlayStation really wanted to acquire them to make money via multiplatform, turn their IP into movies etc, and in order to use their tech and expertise in crafting service and shooter games. They certainly are also banking on the next few IP from the studio.
People need to stop as if Sony doesn't care about supporting the PlayStation 5.
Keeping Activision Blizzard games on PlayStation is the right thing to do for the industry but taking Bethesda games away from them completely contradicts this. Good old manipulating and lying Phil Spencer. Don't trust a word that man says.
I don't believe this game will score nearly as well as death loop but probably low 80s or high 70s. It'll be another decently rated game that nobody really plays. If we are talking about first person combat and a spooky but not so spooky setting I would rather play The Darkness 3. The best thing about this game is it reminded me of the Darkness 2 a little bit. I know that's the lower rated of the two Darkness games but I still enjoyed it even if it wasn't spectacular.
@CarlosR87 I agree. It looks average. Probably fun but nothing impressive. The biggest motivating factor to play is the fact that it's set in an interesting version of Japan but as far as the game goes... Nothing hooked me.
@Scoobijohn it looks like the darkness 2 on PS3 but with a less interesting protagonist. It seems decent but PS5 is so loaded over the next month there is no way I'm touching this. I will be knee deep in Forbidden West and Gran Turismo. Possibly Elden Ring and Sifu.
@Fuzzymonkeyfunk I just finished U3 via the Drake Collection and I started U4 Legacy of Thieves on PS5.
I had played U4 at launch on PS4 but never finished it. It truly is superior at native 1440/60. I dabble between that and 120. The haptics and 3D audio combine for thrilling gun battles.
The jump from U3 to U4 is incredible. U4 via Legacy of Thieves truly looks better than most PS5 games. Animation and storytelling are second to none.
I'm going to finish U4 and List Legacy PS5 and perhaps play a bit of Kena and F.I.S.T then it's Forbidden West time. I recently got 100% in The Frozen Wilds and the improvements in that DLC alone have me so excited for this sequel. The IGN preview of forbidden West blew my mind. I'm tempted to buy Sifu but I don't have enough time considering I am still finishing Uncharted Legacy of Thieves.
PlayStation 5 is just so loaded in the first half of this year it's not a bad problem to have but I need to choose my games wisely.
@wiiware I also have Series S and Gamepass but I use it primarily for indies. It's great for those on a budget but to me it's not a next gen experience and the gap between S and PS5 is enormous. Dying Light 2 runs 1080p at 30 fps on Series S. No other options. It's laughable. It runs some games worse than last gen XB1X.
Series S is a nice diversion because vit has solid indies on Gamepass but the premium experience is on PS5. The DualSense is such a game changer it's hard to use my Xbox controller and not feel disappointed. The exclusives are night n day. Halo Infinite imo is a league average game. Average story, mediocre graphics, bad AI, weak open world that copied Far Cry, bad vehicle controls, boring weapons, and the worst boss battles in gaming. Multiplayer is average as well. Few maps, no progression, nothing innovative, and egregious MTX. I have no idea how Halo is winning Game of the Year awards awards. It doesn't even have Ray tracing or co-op. The production is mediocre at best and the most innovative thing about the game is a half-hearted grappling hook that isn't even permanent and merely a pickup. It has solid shooting mechanics and controls well, that's the only positive I can find. Halo Infinite is probably the most overrated game I have played in a decade. Forza H5 is a much better game but even that is overrated. The game has solid visuals but inconsistent at times and a plethora of content. However, the actual racing is very rudimentary. Cars do not feel distinct at all and the interiors are bare bones. It's a good game but the hyperbole was a bit much. I really don't see it as being any higher in quality than a game like dirt 5. Solid 8 or 8.5 but not a 92.
PS5 had Miles Morales, Demon's Souls, and Sackboy at launch. Returnal, R&C, Kena, FIST, Guilty Gear Strive, The Pathless, etc. We are on the verge of a historic 2022 in terms of exclusives. Sifu, Forbidden West, GT7 in the next four weeks. FFXVI, Forspoken, Ghostwire, God of War and more fill out the year. PS5 is just essential ATM. You can play many of these on PS4 but the experience will be vastly superior on PS5. Horizon for example features so many perks not seen on PS4. Cinematic lighting, improved foliage and water, haptics, adaptive triggers, ray tracing, 3D audio, 4K/60. The SSD. That's another advantage over Xbox. Sony truly delivers best in class next gen features even on cross gen. None of the exclusives Microsoft has published even feature true Ray tracing. In a few weeks Sony will already have an impressive list of first party games that feature real Ray tracing in game. From Miles to Ratchet. Spiderman Remastered, Returnal, Forbidden West, and GT7 to name several. PS5 has been everything I had hoped and more.
@Porco PD tried something NEW with GTSport and people cried for old GT. Now they combine the innovation from Sport with classic GT all in a stunning visual package and still you cry?
Nothing new?
Dynamic weather Dynamic time Temperature impacts tarmac Music Rally DualSense 3D audio Ray tracing in race Improved physics/chassis bobbing GT Cafe Real simulated skies
Not new but additions not in GT Sport
New tracks like Daytona New cars Real GT campaign Drag racing Split screen More tuning Customization Museum Hub
GT7 has 420+ cars and 34 locations with 97 layouts at launch. GT Sport had around 200 cars and 19 locations at launch. Like Sport, GT7 will add cars and tracks for free. I assume 600 cars, 40 location, and 120 layouts at minimum over the course of the game. If it's all free like in GTS this would be incredible.
Obvious visual improvements, more scapes, more photo options, more cars, tracks, modes, 4K/60/ray tracing/DualSense/3D audio/tech innovations. The depth of the weather and star system is unparalleled. Rain drying dynamically on parts of the track that see more sun and cars is incredible. The fact that it can be raining on one part of the track and completely dry on another is also amazing. The wetness gauge and weather predictor will add new elements of strategy to the game. Temperature affecting tire control/track wetness, etc will do the same. The depth of tuning and customization Adds more layers. Improved AI is huge. Even if it's a minor difference, it will be very impactful. The livery editor, social infrastructure, and collecting aspects are all improved. This is basically the game everybody wanted and I'm not sure what else polyphony could have done other than adding more cars.
@JSnow2 I agree. People get more excited about PR then they do actual games.
Microsoft is getting all the love yet in the course of the next month PlayStation has three great looking exclusives and a loaded 2022. Sifu, Forbidden West, GT throughout the next 4 weeks.
People just don't actually care about games or quality anymore. They care about everything else. It's surprising to see people be positive for once. Forbidden West and GT7 couldn't look better. This is a level of quality most publishers can't or won't attain.
@colonelkilgore I apologize for being insulting. I'm just fed up with the industry tbh. I was too harsh with you. I'm sorry.
Maybe the avatar added to it? It's just disheartening to see people's reaction to a truly revolting acquisition to attack Sony somehow and praise Microsoft. Especially when the guy trashed Activision and threatened to end the relationship very recently.
I'm just displeased with the state of the industry. I know the Activision deal is off topic but it follows a trend. Articles slamming Sony for trophies. Ppl caring about everything but the games.
I honestly thought this 2022 lineup for Sony would turn the tide. PS5 is loaded, PSVR is due this fall, and Xbox is dry until maybe early summer or late spring? It's literally just been Gamepass supporting XB Series. I own a Series S and Gamepass is great, but my goodness it's like ppl care more about headlines than playing quality games. Sony is on the verge of the greatest first two years ever for a new console as long as most of the big exclusives they have this year aren't delayed and Xbox might be on the verge of the weakest first 17 months we have seen for a new generation in terms of new exclusives. I know Gamepass is nice but it can't cover every sin or lie.
The stance ppl have taken bothers me. Killing Sony for cross gen and PC. Yet Sony has at least 4 AAAs exclusive to PS5. XB has no AAA exclusives for XBS. Sony waits years to put games on PC, XB is day one. Ppl killed Sony for SSD expansion and praised Microsoft. Yet PS5 already has the far cheaper and far faster SSD expansion solution while XB uses slower, more expensive proprietary storage because they get a cut from each card. Similar to why Microsoft still uses AA batteries, because they have a deal with Duracell. I love how ppl still say expensive proprietary storage is what killed the Vita yet Xbox series is praised for it. Ppl killed Sony early on because PS5 is only 825gb while SX is 1TB yet Kraken compression has more than covered the gap. Ppl killed Sony and praised Microsoft when specs for each system where announced. Microsoft purposely sensationalized teraflop and RDNA and flaunted power. Yet performance has been basically equal with PS5 winning more than occasionally in terms of performance and all we hear is excuses about toolsets. Nobody keeps receipts with Phil Spencer but Jim Ryan and Sony are cross-examined at every turn. When Sony does live up to the hype (DualSense, SSD) ppl ignore it. When they exceed expectations (PS5 performance) no credit is given. SX was supposed to blow PS5 away yet it's merely keeping up. Phil was threatening to end the relationship with Activision...then he acquires them. He made it sound like many Bethesda games would come to PlayStation only to manipulate fans so he wouldn't lose short term sales. If Microsoft purchases another huge publisher and the deal goes through, we know there is some sort of collusion involved. Maybe it's the wealth and power but these guys get away with everything. It's scary in terms of business but sad in terms of the fanbase. Ppl eat up the phony PR and fake smiles. Lie after lie. First it was because backwards compatibility was great and now it's because of Gamepass. Microsoft is a master of marketing and manipulation. Sony not so much. I'm a PlayStation, XB, and occasional PC gamer btw. Grew up on Sega and Nintendo. PlayStation has been my number one since 2011 strictly because of performance. Games and ecosystem.
@Grimwood I Like trophies but I don't understand ppl who will play a PS4 version when they own a PS5 just to get a free plat. It's disturbing. The casual market is crippling the industry yet helping financially. The quality of fans have diminished to a point where I'm literally embarrassed to call myself a gamer sometimes. Headlines about Legacy of Thieves having one platinum and ppl boycotting Forbidden West because Zero Dawn released on PC years after the initial launch yet most fans happily accept the Activision deal and have no problem with Bethesda. They demonize Sony for frivolous garbage and let the huge, industry destroying deals go by without protest.
Bethesda should've been protested by fans, Activision should caused riots. Imagine if Sony acquired Activision when Microsoft did? Phil Spencer was actually more harsh in his criticism for Activision than Ryan and threatened to end the relationship and called Activision disgusting. Then two months later he acquired them because the lawsuits made the deal cheaper.
If Jim Ryan did that his quotes would've been on every website. Ppl would've boycotted Sony and Ryan would be public enemy number one. Everyone praised the Bethesda deal even though it meant stripping dozens of legendary multiplatform IP from half the industry. I know the Activision deal has received some criticism but it should be universal hate. It shouldn't have been allowed at all. Heck, the ARM deal is being shot down potentially. Ppl choose to take a stand against The Last of Us 2 and Days Gone not getting a sequel. For years the media slammed Sony for timed exclusivity. Now Microsoft is hijacking the biggest multiplatform IP in gaming, forever, and it's all good because Phil is charming and Microsoft is the "good guy" somehow. Did ppl forget last generation's wealth of lies or the teraflop/RDNA overhype so soon? It's sad that ppl will accept being manipulated repeatedly as long as the villain does it with a smile. Journalism is dead, ppl are sheep, the industry is in a scary place.
You are disgusting. I love my 88 plats but I WOULD NEVER PLAY A WORSE VERSION JUST FOR TROPHIES. Yikes.
This is becoming a problem when ppl care more about headlines and frivolous things than actual games. It's why your avatar exits, why Sony gets hate and XB slides. Ppl care about everything but the games nowadays. Games like Miles Morales will auto pop trophies if u play the PS4 version first but I would never sacrifice my experience for free trophies.
@Cornaboyzzz I would. I'll enjoy it for what it is. I can separate fine film and popcorn flicks. I have no need to keep some untainted image of a game IP. I'd rather more entertainment with the gaming IP I love than be snobbish and shun it because it's not Citizen K.
@MaseSco I only own Uncharted 4 yet I will receive an upgrade for U4 and PS5 version of Lost Legacy for $10 total. Then the movie more than makes up for the $10. Was going to see it anyway, so I'm basically getting a discounted movie ticket (movies are more than $10) and Lost Legacy free, plus, remastered version and upgraded U4. It's absurdly consumer friendly to only require the ownership of one game. Many ppl will get Lost Legacy for cheaper than it retails because of this. Not to mention the PS5 bells n whistles.
@Cherip-the-Ripper I bought Mortal Shell last year so I'm good. Great PS5 upgrade and no regrets. My issue is ppl jumping to conclusion. And last month we got the PS5 version of The Persistence. That game was actually just an extra PS+ title as well. That's why I would expect Sony to do it. BTW, it's not Sony's fault, it is the publisher if Mortal.
Also, to act like Sony never gives PS5 editions on PS4 games is false. Last month we got three PS5 games on PS+. Knockout City, First Class Trouble, The Persistence. Yet u act like Sony never does this lol. I love these ppl who feed on negativity and dismiss anything positive. The Jim Ryan haters won't acknowledge that he acquired five studios this year and Insomniac after he took his position. Or that he greenlit PSVR 2 or had a phenomenal PS5 launch. Just like the PS+ haters say we never get PS5 versions of PS5 games yet we got three last month.
@BRUTALSAM .......for ppl with the hardware to do it. PS5 practical performance is far beyond the pure specs. The closed system on PS5 punches well above it's weight and the percentage of ppl that have a PC more capable than a PS5 is certainly well below half.
@Salt_AU Some people need to think for themselves instead of spewing unconfirmed nonsense. I personally enjoy enlightening folks.
I'm a parent and I make sure to keep my little girls away from Daddy's keyboard. It's obvious that not all parents are as attentive because I see a lot of little girls crying about things they do not understand. A lot of TMZ behavior as well. Spreading gossip as gospel and parroting one another. Just what we need, more bad opinions based on nothing and more misinformation.
@TheCollector316 Because it isn't. People are just parroting one another and being negative. It could very well include the free PS5 upgrade just like The Persistence did last month. Btw, they never mentioned a word about The Persistence including the PS5 upgrade last month.
@ThorsHammer Endgame is the reason to play Godfall. You probably would've just quit half way through the campaign. Trust me, I Platinumed Godfall and you are getting the best part of the game.
@BAMozzy Not at all. Godfall is better off trashing the campaign and starting ppl at 50. There is so much to collect and tinker with during endgame. The campaign is monotony and an excuse to hit level 50. Endgame has essentially become thee game. More ppl will actually stick with the game now instead of quitting during the campaign. If u really want a campaign, get the Fire n Darkness DLC. It's dramatically superior to the primary campaign.
@Jayofmaya it's not a demo. Ffs. You can't just listen to uninformed people.
Mortal Shell might very well be on PS5. Again, we need to stop the idiocy and mob mentality. It's sickening. This is how misinformation is spread.
Godfall Challenger is the entire game without the dreadful campaign. It features three robust modes that far outweigh the campaign. One is a rogue like tower mode. The other is a deep boss rush style mode called Dreamstones. The last is a completely new mode called Lightbringer. All three are playable solo or three player co op. It includes trophies and will continue to receive free content.
@naruball I wish PEOPLE handled it better. It's pathetic, honestly. Especially considering they have no clue what the endgame is or how bad the campaign is.
@Salt_AU Checkout my PSN, same name. I actually platinumed Godfall over 100 hours. I actually KNOW what I am talking about. Do you??? Because anyone who cries over the campaign and claims the endgame is a demo is sadly misinformed and likely just regurgitating what someone else said. Endgame IS the game ATM. The campaign is more of a demo tbh..
@Ear_wiG The campaign is terrible. Just an excuse to level up for endgame. The highlight of Godfall is the combat, build variety, and co op. Endgame is where this shines. Trust me, it's better this way. Imo the Ascended Tower alone is better than the campaign and that's merely 1/3 of the endgame. If u were interested in Godfall, this shouldn't deter you. If you desperately want to play a good campaign buy the new Fire n Darkness DLC. It's actually good and it's half price ATM. However, the primary campaign is mediocre.
@Salt_AU The people who know nothing about Godfall yet call this a demo are the biggest joke.
The ppl who cry over the campaign, which is merely an excuse to level up for endgame, are the biggest joke.
Godfall endgame is the only reason to even play Godfall. They did you a favor. The endgame is actually good. It's easily the meatiest part of the game. You guys sound clueless when you call it a demo. It's honestly pathetic. Stop parroting what others say and do some research so you can think for yourself.
Oh, and Mortal Shell is amazing. Better on PS5. Are you going to tell me we don't get the free PS5 upgrade because you heard it from someone else?
@HotGoomba Mortal Shell is arguably the best 3D Soulslike not made by From Software. It's even better on PS5 and I'm not convinced that the free upgrade will be blocked. Either way, Mortal Shell is superb.
The Lego game is actually only three years old, which isn't bad for Lego. Maybe the scores aren't the highest but if u look at comments from ppl who actually played it, they say it's one of the best Lego games around. It has the best character creator and a great open world. Huge cast of villains and some of the best voice acting in games period. The combat is what we come to expect from Lego. So what exactly is bad about it?
You know nothing about Godfall. People need to stop. The game is hugely improved strictly because of the endgame. That is why people enjoy Godfall. They did you a favor removing the campaign and reconfiguring the game altogether.
@Medic_Alert How do you know Mortal Shell won't include the free PS5 upgrade the same way The Persistence did last month? Where is that confirmed? Don't tell me it's because of the header lol.
Epic Game Store has nothing to do with PlayStation. EGS always has great freebies. It's what they do to entice ppl into their bad store.
And btw, Godfall has a terrible campaign. If anything, the Challenger Edition cuts the garbage and reassembles the game in a much better fashion. It allows you to get to the quality content and to start tinkering with builds right away.
The ppl crying about the campaign are uninformed. I Platinumed Godfall and you nailed. The campaign is an excuse to level your character for endgame. It's a slog. Endgame is where Godfall shines. If anything this helps the game become more popular.
@Juanalf My position is that this is a quality month of PS+ offerings.
Ofc everybody wants more. In a perfect world we would choose the games on PS+ but this is reality. Godfall was a $70, AAA, PS5 launch exclusive from one year ago. The game is massively improved thanks to the endgame. It's just not likely to get $70 AAA exclusives from PS5 on PS+ yet. So they made a concession, a smart concession. As someone who platinumed the game over 100+ hours I can tell you that this is still a quality PS+ offering and a move that quite honestly might hook more ppl to the game then if they had kept the campaign.
In a perfect world we get all the content but this is reality, and it's still not too bad.
@Voltan DId the graphic say PS5 for The Persistence last month? Everybody cried who didn't have VR and guess what? We got the PS5 remastered enhanced edition for The Persistence. So you have another PS5 game in the Persistence Enhanced. The reason the graphics says PS4 is because it's featured as one of the PS4 games. The Persistence was featured as one of the free VR games last month but we got the free PS5 upgrade. Godfall is featured as the PS5 game this month, that's why it says PS5. It is possible they block the PS5 upgrade but it make absolutely no sense. FFVII and Greedfall did it because they were coming out with new, paid, PS5 editions. Mortal Shell and its free upgrade are old. I could be wrong but so could u.
You guys who know nothing about the game need to stop. If you think Godfall endgame is a "demo" then you are clueless. The endgame is WAY better than the campaign. The campaign is a demo for the endgame if anything. The campaign is an excuse to level your character and get to the good part. Endgame is when build tinkering and meaningful loot come in. Ascended Tower, Dreamstones, and Lightbringer are three robust endgame modes and they absolutely outshine the campaign. Ffs. Also, PS+ has been good imo. Amular and the three VR games were huge last month. FFVII was given this year. C'mon.
@Voltan Why do u say Mortal Shell isn't upgradable? Where is that confirmed?
Honestly, the campaign in Godfall is the worst part of the game. It doesn't get good until endgame. Ascended Tower, Dreamstones, and Lightbringer are way more fun than the dinky campaign. Endgame is where the fun is. That's when u start with build variety and meaningful loot. Trust me.
Great lineup but unfortunately I own both Mortal Shell and Godfall. Legos is a nice add for me though.
Personally, I'm disappointed that I own these but I'm happy that more ppl will get to experience them. I have no reason to believe that the free PS5 in Mortal Shell is being blocked. The game is fabulous on PS5.
And tbh the mass majority who are complaining about Godfall Challenger just don't have a clue about the game. Godfall has been hugely improved in so many ways but the campaign remains unchanged and it is the weakest part of the game. What makes Godfall good ATM is the endgame and paid DLC. The game is a slog up until endgame. That's when build variety and challenge come into play. The Ascended Tower is incredibly difficult and it's a joy tinkering with builds in an attempt to defeat it. It's basically a rogue like mode. Then there are Dreamstones which are basically a very deep boss rush mode that adds unique elements. Lastly, Lightbringer is a new mode that implements an interesting dynamic where darkness emboldens enemies. It uses the regions from the campaign and it's a fun challenge with unique mechanics. This is the meat of the game. The campaign is merely an excuse to level up. The Challenger edition might actually be smart because so many ppl gas out in the campaign before they reach the good stuff.
I actually platinumed Godfall, I know what I'm talking about. If u want to play a campaign buy the new Fire n Darkness DLC campaign because it's actually quite good and vastly superior to the OG campaign. It's actually half price rn.
Overall, this is a good month. And unless u can prove that Mortal Shell won't include the free upgrade, I'll go on believing it will. Awesome month.
@tameshiyaku PS+ gave us FFVII Remake and day one PS5 releases. Hitman 2, Mortal Shell, Amular Re-reckoning were just given. We also just received three of the best VR games. PS+ is literally $5 per month and often less. It's great value.

@nessisonett No.
I can't stand the people who give Resident Evil raccoon City a pass by saying that it intentionally had poor production quality and was intentionally bad in order to achieve a campy vibe. Stop. The Uncharted movie certainly isn't a masterpiece but it at least has quality production value and is a good time. If Uncharted was not in the title this movie would be 10 to 15 points higher on Metacritic. It's vastly superior to the likes of the original Tomb Raider and national treasure films. Well it's still doesn't hold a candle to Indiana Jones it is a more than serviceable treasure hunting adventure that audiences will enjoy. Hardcore Uncharted snobs will never accept it and even myself to a degree is disappointed in the casting and script but the movie isn't garbage. It's no worse than any other highly produced popcorn action flick.

Re: First Impressions: Ghostwire: Tokyo Goes Heavy on Supernatural Action
I don't believe this game will score nearly as well as death loop but probably low 80s or high 70s. It'll be another decently rated game that nobody really plays. If we are talking about first person combat and a spooky but not so spooky setting I would rather play The Darkness 3. The best thing about this game is it reminded me of the Darkness 2 a little bit.

Re: First Impressions: Ghostwire: Tokyo Goes Heavy on Supernatural Action
@CarlosR87 I agree. It looks average. Probably fun but nothing impressive. The biggest motivating factor to play is the fact that it's set in an interesting version of Japan but as far as the game goes... Nothing hooked me.
Re: First Impressions: Ghostwire: Tokyo Goes Heavy on Supernatural Action
@Scoobijohn it looks like the darkness 2 on PS3 but with a less interesting protagonist. It seems decent but PS5 is so loaded over the next month there is no way I'm touching this. I will be knee deep in Forbidden West and Gran Turismo. Possibly Elden Ring and Sifu.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 412
@Fuzzymonkeyfunk I just finished U3 via the Drake Collection and I started U4 Legacy of Thieves on PS5.
I had played U4 at launch on PS4 but never finished it. It truly is superior at native 1440/60. I dabble between that and 120. The haptics and 3D audio combine for thrilling gun battles.
The jump from U3 to U4 is incredible. U4 via Legacy of Thieves truly looks better than most PS5 games. Animation and storytelling are second to none.
I'm going to finish U4 and List Legacy PS5 and perhaps play a bit of Kena and F.I.S.T then it's Forbidden West time. I recently got 100% in The Frozen Wilds and the improvements in that DLC alone have me so excited for this sequel. The IGN preview of forbidden West blew my mind. I'm tempted to buy Sifu but I don't have enough time considering I am still finishing Uncharted Legacy of Thieves.
PlayStation 5 is just so loaded in the first half of this year it's not a bad problem to have but I need to choose my games wisely.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 412
@wiiware I also have Series S and Gamepass but I use it primarily for indies. It's great for those on a budget but to me it's not a next gen experience and the gap between S and PS5 is enormous. Dying Light 2 runs 1080p at 30 fps on Series S. No other options. It's laughable. It runs some games worse than last gen XB1X.
Series S is a nice diversion because vit has solid indies on Gamepass but the premium experience is on PS5. The DualSense is such a game changer it's hard to use my Xbox controller and not feel disappointed. The exclusives are night n day. Halo Infinite imo is a league average game. Average story, mediocre graphics, bad AI, weak open world that copied Far Cry, bad vehicle controls, boring weapons, and the worst boss battles in gaming. Multiplayer is average as well. Few maps, no progression, nothing innovative, and egregious MTX. I have no idea how Halo is winning Game of the Year awards awards. It doesn't even have Ray tracing or co-op. The production is mediocre at best and the most innovative thing about the game is a half-hearted grappling hook that isn't even permanent and merely a pickup. It has solid shooting mechanics and controls well, that's the only positive I can find. Halo Infinite is probably the most overrated game I have played in a decade. Forza H5 is a much better game but even that is overrated. The game has solid visuals but inconsistent at times and a plethora of content. However, the actual racing is very rudimentary. Cars do not feel distinct at all and the interiors are bare bones. It's a good game but the hyperbole was a bit much. I really don't see it as being any higher in quality than a game like dirt 5. Solid 8 or 8.5 but not a 92.
PS5 had Miles Morales, Demon's Souls, and Sackboy at launch. Returnal, R&C, Kena, FIST, Guilty Gear Strive, The Pathless, etc. We are on the verge of a historic 2022 in terms of exclusives. Sifu, Forbidden West, GT7 in the next four weeks. FFXVI, Forspoken, Ghostwire, God of War and more fill out the year. PS5 is just essential ATM. You can play many of these on PS4 but the experience will be vastly superior on PS5. Horizon for example features so many perks not seen on PS4. Cinematic lighting, improved foliage and water, haptics, adaptive triggers, ray tracing, 3D audio, 4K/60. The SSD. That's another advantage over Xbox. Sony truly delivers best in class next gen features even on cross gen. None of the exclusives Microsoft has published even feature true Ray tracing. In a few weeks Sony will already have an impressive list of first party games that feature real Ray tracing in game. From Miles to Ratchet. Spiderman Remastered, Returnal, Forbidden West, and GT7 to name several. PS5 has been everything I had hoped and more.
Re: First Impressions: Gran Turismo 7 on PS5, PS4 Looks Like the Biggest and Best Yet
@Porco PD tried something NEW with GTSport and people cried for old GT. Now they combine the innovation from Sport with classic GT all in a stunning visual package and still you cry?
Nothing new?
Dynamic weather
Dynamic time
Temperature impacts tarmac
Music Rally
DualSense
3D audio
Ray tracing in race
Improved physics/chassis bobbing
GT Cafe
Real simulated skies
Not new but additions not in GT Sport
New tracks like Daytona
New cars
Real GT campaign
Drag racing
Split screen
More tuning
Customization
Museum
Hub
GT7 has 420+ cars and 34 locations with 97 layouts at launch. GT Sport had around 200 cars and 19 locations at launch. Like Sport, GT7 will add cars and tracks for free. I assume 600 cars, 40 location, and 120 layouts at minimum over the course of the game. If it's all free like in GTS this would be incredible.
Obvious visual improvements, more scapes, more photo options, more cars, tracks, modes, 4K/60/ray tracing/DualSense/3D audio/tech innovations. The depth of the weather and star system is unparalleled. Rain drying dynamically on parts of the track that see more sun and cars is incredible. The fact that it can be raining on one part of the track and completely dry on another is also amazing. The wetness gauge and weather predictor will add new elements of strategy to the game. Temperature affecting tire control/track wetness, etc will do the same. The depth of tuning and customization Adds more layers. Improved AI is huge. Even if it's a minor difference, it will be very impactful. The livery editor, social infrastructure, and collecting aspects are all improved. This is basically the game everybody wanted and I'm not sure what else polyphony could have done other than adding more cars.
Re: First Impressions: Gran Turismo 7 on PS5, PS4 Looks Like the Biggest and Best Yet
@JSnow2 I agree. People get more excited about PR then they do actual games.
Microsoft is getting all the love yet in the course of the next month PlayStation has three great looking exclusives and a loaded 2022. Sifu, Forbidden West, GT throughout the next 4 weeks.
People just don't actually care about games or quality anymore. They care about everything else. It's surprising to see people be positive for once. Forbidden West and GT7 couldn't look better. This is a level of quality most publishers can't or won't attain.
Re: Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection's PS5 Trophies Are a Complete Bust
@colonelkilgore I apologize for being insulting. I'm just fed up with the industry tbh. I was too harsh with you. I'm sorry.
Maybe the avatar added to it? It's just disheartening to see people's reaction to a truly revolting acquisition to attack Sony somehow and praise Microsoft. Especially when the guy trashed Activision and threatened to end the relationship very recently.
I'm just displeased with the state of the industry. I know the Activision deal is off topic but it follows a trend. Articles slamming Sony for trophies. Ppl caring about everything but the games.
I honestly thought this 2022 lineup for Sony would turn the tide. PS5 is loaded, PSVR is due this fall, and Xbox is dry until maybe early summer or late spring? It's literally just been Gamepass supporting XB Series. I own a Series S and Gamepass is great, but my goodness it's like ppl care more about headlines than playing quality games. Sony is on the verge of the greatest first two years ever for a new console as long as most of the big exclusives they have this year aren't delayed and Xbox might be on the verge of the weakest first 17 months we have seen for a new generation in terms of new exclusives. I know Gamepass is nice but it can't cover every sin or lie.
The stance ppl have taken bothers me. Killing Sony for cross gen and PC. Yet Sony has at least 4 AAAs exclusive to PS5. XB has no AAA exclusives for XBS. Sony waits years to put games on PC, XB is day one. Ppl killed Sony for SSD expansion and praised Microsoft. Yet PS5 already has the far cheaper and far faster SSD expansion solution while XB uses slower, more expensive proprietary storage because they get a cut from each card. Similar to why Microsoft still uses AA batteries, because they have a deal with Duracell. I love how ppl still say expensive proprietary storage is what killed the Vita yet Xbox series is praised for it. Ppl killed Sony early on because PS5 is only 825gb while SX is 1TB yet Kraken compression has more than covered the gap. Ppl killed Sony and praised Microsoft when specs for each system where announced. Microsoft purposely sensationalized teraflop and RDNA and flaunted power. Yet performance has been basically equal with PS5 winning more than occasionally in terms of performance and all we hear is excuses about toolsets. Nobody keeps receipts with Phil Spencer but Jim Ryan and Sony are cross-examined at every turn. When Sony does live up to the hype (DualSense, SSD) ppl ignore it. When they exceed expectations (PS5 performance) no credit is given. SX was supposed to blow PS5 away yet it's merely keeping up. Phil was threatening to end the relationship with Activision...then he acquires them. He made it sound like many Bethesda games would come to PlayStation only to manipulate fans so he wouldn't lose short term sales. If Microsoft purchases another huge publisher and the deal goes through, we know there is some sort of collusion involved. Maybe it's the wealth and power but these guys get away with everything. It's scary in terms of business but sad in terms of the fanbase. Ppl eat up the phony PR and fake smiles. Lie after lie. First it was because backwards compatibility was great and now it's because of Gamepass. Microsoft is a master of marketing and manipulation. Sony not so much. I'm a PlayStation, XB, and occasional PC gamer btw. Grew up on Sega and Nintendo. PlayStation has been my number one since 2011 strictly because of performance. Games and ecosystem.
Re: Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection's PS5 Trophies Are a Complete Bust
@Grimwood I Like trophies but I don't understand ppl who will play a PS4 version when they own a PS5 just to get a free plat. It's disturbing. The casual market is crippling the industry yet helping financially. The quality of fans have diminished to a point where I'm literally embarrassed to call myself a gamer sometimes. Headlines about Legacy of Thieves having one platinum and ppl boycotting Forbidden West because Zero Dawn released on PC years after the initial launch yet most fans happily accept the Activision deal and have no problem with Bethesda. They demonize Sony for frivolous garbage and let the huge, industry destroying deals go by without protest.
Bethesda should've been protested by fans, Activision should caused riots. Imagine if Sony acquired Activision when Microsoft did? Phil Spencer was actually more harsh in his criticism for Activision than Ryan and threatened to end the relationship and called Activision disgusting. Then two months later he acquired them because the lawsuits made the deal cheaper.
If Jim Ryan did that his quotes would've been on every website. Ppl would've boycotted Sony and Ryan would be public enemy number one. Everyone praised the Bethesda deal even though it meant stripping dozens of legendary multiplatform IP from half the industry. I know the Activision deal has received some criticism but it should be universal hate. It shouldn't have been allowed at all. Heck, the ARM deal is being shot down potentially. Ppl choose to take a stand against The Last of Us 2 and Days Gone not getting a sequel. For years the media slammed Sony for timed exclusivity. Now Microsoft is hijacking the biggest multiplatform IP in gaming, forever, and it's all good because Phil is charming and Microsoft is the "good guy" somehow. Did ppl forget last generation's wealth of lies or the teraflop/RDNA overhype so soon? It's sad that ppl will accept being manipulated repeatedly as long as the villain does it with a smile. Journalism is dead, ppl are sheep, the industry is in a scary place.
Re: Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection's PS5 Trophies Are a Complete Bust
@colonelkilgore
You are disgusting. I love my 88 plats but I WOULD NEVER PLAY A WORSE VERSION JUST FOR TROPHIES. Yikes.
This is becoming a problem when ppl care more about headlines and frivolous things than actual games. It's why your avatar exits, why Sony gets hate and XB slides. Ppl care about everything but the games nowadays. Games like Miles Morales will auto pop trophies if u play the PS4 version first but I would never sacrifice my experience for free trophies.
Re: Purchase Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection and Watch the Movie for Free
@Cornaboyzzz I would. I'll enjoy it for what it is. I can separate fine film and popcorn flicks. I have no need to keep some untainted image of a game IP. I'd rather more entertainment with the gaming IP I love than be snobbish and shun it because it's not Citizen K.
Re: Purchase Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection and Watch the Movie for Free
@MaseSco I only own Uncharted 4 yet I will receive an upgrade for U4 and PS5 version of Lost Legacy for $10 total. Then the movie more than makes up for the $10. Was going to see it anyway, so I'm basically getting a discounted movie ticket (movies are more than $10) and Lost Legacy free, plus, remastered version and upgraded U4. It's absurdly consumer friendly to only require the ownership of one game. Many ppl will get Lost Legacy for cheaper than it retails because of this. Not to mention the PS5 bells n whistles.

Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Cherip-the-Ripper I bought Mortal Shell last year so I'm good. Great PS5 upgrade and no regrets. My issue is ppl jumping to conclusion. And last month we got the PS5 version of The Persistence. That game was actually just an extra PS+ title as well. That's why I would expect Sony to do it. BTW, it's not Sony's fault, it is the publisher if Mortal.
Also, to act like Sony never gives PS5 editions on PS4 games is false. Last month we got three PS5 games on PS+. Knockout City, First Class Trouble, The Persistence. Yet u act like Sony never does this lol. I love these ppl who feed on negativity and dismiss anything positive. The Jim Ryan haters won't acknowledge that he acquired five studios this year and Insomniac after he took his position. Or that he greenlit PSVR 2 or had a phenomenal PS5 launch. Just like the PS+ haters say we never get PS5 versions of PS5 games yet we got three last month.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade No Longer PlayStation Exclusive from 16th December
@BRUTALSAM .......for ppl with the hardware to do it. PS5 practical performance is far beyond the pure specs. The closed system on PS5 punches well above it's weight and the percentage of ppl that have a PC more capable than a PS5 is certainly well below half.

Re: Virtua Fighter 5: Ultimate Showdown Feels the Heat with Yakuza DLC Pack Next Week

Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Salt_AU Some people need to think for themselves instead of spewing unconfirmed nonsense. I personally enjoy enlightening folks.
I'm a parent and I make sure to keep my little girls away from Daddy's keyboard. It's obvious that not all parents are as attentive because I see a lot of little girls crying about things they do not understand. A lot of TMZ behavior as well. Spreading gossip as gospel and parroting one another. Just what we need, more bad opinions based on nothing and more misinformation.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@TheCollector316 Because it isn't. People are just parroting one another and being negative. It could very well include the free PS5 upgrade just like The Persistence did last month. Btw, they never mentioned a word about The Persistence including the PS5 upgrade last month.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@ThorsHammer Endgame is the reason to play Godfall. You probably would've just quit half way through the campaign. Trust me, I Platinumed Godfall and you are getting the best part of the game.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@BAMozzy Not at all. Godfall is better off trashing the campaign and starting ppl at 50. There is so much to collect and tinker with during endgame. The campaign is monotony and an excuse to hit level 50. Endgame has essentially become thee game. More ppl will actually stick with the game now instead of quitting during the campaign. If u really want a campaign, get the Fire n Darkness DLC. It's dramatically superior to the primary campaign.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Jayofmaya it's not a demo. Ffs. You can't just listen to uninformed people.
Mortal Shell might very well be on PS5. Again, we need to stop the idiocy and mob mentality. It's sickening. This is how misinformation is spread.
Godfall Challenger is the entire game without the dreadful campaign. It features three robust modes that far outweigh the campaign. One is a rogue like tower mode. The other is a deep boss rush style mode called Dreamstones. The last is a completely new mode called Lightbringer. All three are playable solo or three player co op. It includes trophies and will continue to receive free content.
This is not a demo.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@naruball I wish PEOPLE handled it better. It's pathetic, honestly. Especially considering they have no clue what the endgame is or how bad the campaign is.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Salt_AU Checkout my PSN, same name. I actually platinumed Godfall over 100 hours. I actually KNOW what I am talking about. Do you??? Because anyone who cries over the campaign and claims the endgame is a demo is sadly misinformed and likely just regurgitating what someone else said. Endgame IS the game ATM. The campaign is more of a demo tbh..
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@djlard it's actually better than ever..
Counterplay improved the game massively and they aren't done. The endgame basically IS the game ATM..
I feel bad for the uninformed who continuously call it a demo and use it as an excuse to trash the entire lineup. Not saying that's you, btw.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Voltan countdown to Tuesday! I believe we get the upgrade.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Ear_wiG The campaign is terrible. Just an excuse to level up for endgame. The highlight of Godfall is the combat, build variety, and co op. Endgame is where this shines. Trust me, it's better this way. Imo the Ascended Tower alone is better than the campaign and that's merely 1/3 of the endgame. If u were interested in Godfall, this shouldn't deter you. If you desperately want to play a good campaign buy the new Fire n Darkness DLC. It's actually good and it's half price ATM. However, the primary campaign is mediocre.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Salt_AU The people who know nothing about Godfall yet call this a demo are the biggest joke.
The ppl who cry over the campaign, which is merely an excuse to level up for endgame, are the biggest joke.
Godfall endgame is the only reason to even play Godfall. They did you a favor. The endgame is actually good. It's easily the meatiest part of the game. You guys sound clueless when you call it a demo. It's honestly pathetic. Stop parroting what others say and do some research so you can think for yourself.
Oh, and Mortal Shell is amazing. Better on PS5. Are you going to tell me we don't get the free PS5 upgrade because you heard it from someone else?
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@HotGoomba Mortal Shell is arguably the best 3D Soulslike not made by From Software. It's even better on PS5 and I'm not convinced that the free upgrade will be blocked. Either way, Mortal Shell is superb.
The Lego game is actually only three years old, which isn't bad for Lego. Maybe the scores aren't the highest but if u look at comments from ppl who actually played it, they say it's one of the best Lego games around. It has the best character creator and a great open world. Huge cast of villains and some of the best voice acting in games period. The combat is what we come to expect from Lego. So what exactly is bad about it?
You know nothing about Godfall. People need to stop. The game is hugely improved strictly because of the endgame. That is why people enjoy Godfall. They did you a favor removing the campaign and reconfiguring the game altogether.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Medic_Alert How do you know Mortal Shell won't include the free PS5 upgrade the same way The Persistence did last month? Where is that confirmed? Don't tell me it's because of the header lol.
Epic Game Store has nothing to do with PlayStation. EGS always has great freebies. It's what they do to entice ppl into their bad store.
And btw, Godfall has a terrible campaign. If anything, the Challenger Edition cuts the garbage and reassembles the game in a much better fashion. It allows you to get to the quality content and to start tinkering with builds right away.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@RawnDawn 100%
The ppl crying about the campaign are uninformed. I Platinumed Godfall and you nailed. The campaign is an excuse to level your character for endgame. It's a slog. Endgame is where Godfall shines. If anything this helps the game become more popular.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Juanalf My position is that this is a quality month of PS+ offerings.
Ofc everybody wants more. In a perfect world we would choose the games on PS+ but this is reality. Godfall was a $70, AAA, PS5 launch exclusive from one year ago. The game is massively improved thanks to the endgame. It's just not likely to get $70 AAA exclusives from PS5 on PS+ yet. So they made a concession, a smart concession. As someone who platinumed the game over 100+ hours I can tell you that this is still a quality PS+ offering and a move that quite honestly might hook more ppl to the game then if they had kept the campaign.
In a perfect world we get all the content but this is reality, and it's still not too bad.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Voltan DId the graphic say PS5 for The Persistence last month? Everybody cried who didn't have VR and guess what? We got the PS5 remastered enhanced edition for The Persistence. So you have another PS5 game in the Persistence Enhanced. The reason the graphics says PS4 is because it's featured as one of the PS4 games. The Persistence was featured as one of the free VR games last month but we got the free PS5 upgrade. Godfall is featured as the PS5 game this month, that's why it says PS5. It is possible they block the PS5 upgrade but it make absolutely no sense. FFVII and Greedfall did it because they were coming out with new, paid, PS5 editions. Mortal Shell and its free upgrade are old. I could be wrong but so could u.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Jayslow
You guys who know nothing about the game need to stop. If you think Godfall endgame is a "demo" then you are clueless. The endgame is WAY better than the campaign. The campaign is a demo for the endgame if anything. The campaign is an excuse to level your character and get to the good part. Endgame is when build tinkering and meaningful loot come in. Ascended Tower, Dreamstones, and Lightbringer are three robust endgame modes and they absolutely outshine the campaign. Ffs. Also, PS+ has been good imo. Amular and the three VR games were huge last month. FFVII was given this year. C'mon.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
@Voltan Why do u say Mortal Shell isn't upgradable? Where is that confirmed?
Honestly, the campaign in Godfall is the worst part of the game. It doesn't get good until endgame. Ascended Tower, Dreamstones, and Lightbringer are way more fun than the dinky campaign. Endgame is where the fun is. That's when u start with build variety and meaningful loot. Trust me.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Your PS Plus Games for December 2021?
Great lineup but unfortunately I own both Mortal Shell and Godfall. Legos is a nice add for me though.
Personally, I'm disappointed that I own these but I'm happy that more ppl will get to experience them. I have no reason to believe that the free PS5 in Mortal Shell is being blocked. The game is fabulous on PS5.
And tbh the mass majority who are complaining about Godfall Challenger just don't have a clue about the game. Godfall has been hugely improved in so many ways but the campaign remains unchanged and it is the weakest part of the game. What makes Godfall good ATM is the endgame and paid DLC. The game is a slog up until endgame. That's when build variety and challenge come into play. The Ascended Tower is incredibly difficult and it's a joy tinkering with builds in an attempt to defeat it. It's basically a rogue like mode. Then there are Dreamstones which are basically a very deep boss rush mode that adds unique elements. Lastly, Lightbringer is a new mode that implements an interesting dynamic where darkness emboldens enemies. It uses the regions from the campaign and it's a fun challenge with unique mechanics. This is the meat of the game. The campaign is merely an excuse to level up. The Challenger edition might actually be smart because so many ppl gas out in the campaign before they reach the good stuff.
I actually platinumed Godfall, I know what I'm talking about. If u want to play a campaign buy the new Fire n Darkness DLC campaign because it's actually quite good and vastly superior to the OG campaign. It's actually half price rn.
Overall, this is a good month. And unless u can prove that Mortal Shell won't include the free upgrade, I'll go on believing it will. Awesome month.
