@get2sammyb Yeah, I’m really looking forward to this one too, and I think this little demo is a prequel to the main game. Will have to wait till Saturday to play it though, as I’m away from home for the week.
@Quintumply Ha, I was going to say a similar thing. I’ve played and completed 3 and New Vegas, started 4 ages ago and dip into it every now and then. But I always enjoy these little infomercial type vids, they’re fun. No real interest in 76 tho...yet 🤔
Nice review, Graham. I’ve noted Detached on the PS store, but was a bit put off by the £29.99 price tag. Your review has definitely swayed me towards a purchase, but I may wait and see if there’s a price drop down the line. And I’m happily creeping my way through The Persistence at the moment 👻
I think this a great idea, personally. I’ve been a bit on the fence with We Happy Few, but trying this PSVR demo will hopefully give me a better idea/feel of the game. So, off to the PS store!
@get2sammyb I personally wouldn’t say RE6 is terrible. As a game, it’s technically well made, with lots of action and some really good segments. However, and it’s a big however, as far as a Resident Evil game goes, it is not really in the same league as the rest of the RE games. With regards to this article, it sounds good that Capcom are taking note, as it’s the customers that ultimately make their business: if no one buys, regardless of technical quality, the profits take a major hit. Now, if only Konami would take a leaf out of this viewpoint, and consider Silent Hill’s fan base.
@Shepherd_Tallon Yeah, me too, because The Sinking City has got some combat in, whereas I think Call Of Cthulhu will just be investigative. Definitely looking forward to both, though 🐙
Yeah, the percussion instruments used seem to sound the same, and both tracks appears to be of the same composition...but is this something, or is this nothing? I mean, a whole load of songs from a genre use a similar, if not identical percussive arrangement, because it’s part and parcel of that genre’s feel and vibe. Dunno 🤷🏻♂️
Is this percentage for all digital games or just the ones that also have a physical counterpart? For myself, I obviously only buy digital if that’s the only option, but prefer physical.
@AFCC Ah, I see. Weird though, I’d assume, rightly or wrongly, that the vast majority of gamers would be all over video game websites, and therefore up to date with the latest info. Heyho 🤷🏻♂️
@ShogunRok Obviously, thank you so much for all your efforts for this feature 👏🙏 As a suggestion for the future, may I suggest tournaments for best game in a genre (fighting, FPS, racing, horror, etc), either PS4 only or going all the way back from PS1 to current gen.
@munkondi Indeed. Since owning PSVR, and with being very fond of the Dead Space games, I’ve always thought that Dead Space: Extraction would be a particularly good fit for VR 👻
@AFCC Absolutely, personal experience is the only way to know. Which in turn, if the individual’s experience is positive, would significantly boost PSVR’s sales.
@Elodin Too old? If it’s of any help, I’m 48 and own a PSVR, and fortunately I don’t get motion sickness: l absolutely experience the sense of motion, but luckily not the nausea. And I love horror games 👻👻👻
As others have mentioned, definitely needs The Evil Within 2 on this list. And how about Lone Survivor: Director’s Cut? That’s one creepy game. Horror games? Luvs em!
@Cornaboyzzz Hope you’re enjoying the stories! Not only do we have Call Of Cthulhu to look forward to, but there’s also The Sinking City in March 2019. Hopefully they’ll be great 👍🐙
@VotesForCows ha, my thoughts exactly. RDR2 is definitely a game I will purchase, but it can absolutely wait. Horror game = instant interest, Lovecraftian horror = 99.9% assured purchase! 🐙
@get2sammyb I know, but I don’t mind these little nods as long as they’re not too overdone. During that gunfight sequence, it was quite full of them, but then maybe they were crammed in because it was only a short film. I think the first Silent Hill movie did those nods well, with the way certain camera angles were used to match those from the game.
@get2sammyb did you also notice the way the camera was positioned before the gunfight, 3rd person over the shoulder view? Thought it was a nice little touch.

Re: Layers of Fear Dev Teasing New Game, Project Méliès
I’m loving what they did in the 2nd video. Hopefully that style is used in the game in some way.

Regardless if it’s a good movie or not, I reckon Tom Holland will be great as a younger Nathan Drake.

Re: Nautical Roguelike Sunless Sea Sets Sail to PS4 This Year
Looks intriguing. I like the art style and overhead view, and I’m getting a great Lovecraft vibe too.

Re: Devil's Hunt Looks Like a PS4 Action Game for Edgelords
I like this teaser/trailer.
Re: Soapbox: Playing The Persistence As My First Ever PSVR Experience
@AFCC Really? Why do you think that? I would of thought that a PS4 owner would be aware of PSVR by now. Or are being specific about PSVR’s packaging?
