In an alternate reality PS5 gamers forget the game is on their console and don't buy it, hurting the title's sales overall. Warehouses full of PS5 versions collecting dust. Head scratching for sure. They think we're morons?
Wait. You can't export/import your Draft Classes into Madden? Maybe they'll release an update for this when Madden is released. That seems like a big oversight otherwise.
Hope their rights / demands are met. Human beings are more than capable of doing voice work, etc. and there are plenty of us. We don't need AI to do it for us, to replace us. We need AI to help us do what we are already doing.
"93% of its overall sales come from digital games"
Does that account for games with only digital purchase options? Those titles should not be included when we talk about comparing physical to digital sales numbers. Kunitsu-Gami is not the only digital exclusive title from Capcom.
@IntrepidWombat I remember the Easter Egg too. Summoner was one of the games I bought when I got my launch day PS2 at Best Buy. I remember getting stuck pretty deep in the game and had to give up. I don't think it was a bug, just my bad gaming. Will check this version out.
There are people that still buy new games at full price, either physical or digital, but I don't know how any of these game companies can charge $15-$20 month considering the development costs. How many and for how long do subscribers need to pay to make up their investments? How are companies NOT swan diving into their money vaults to make up for the costs?
While not the absolute worst, this is sad to hear. Does the average consumer care about PS2 games? There must be some demand from gamers like us, otherwise why would Sony even try at all.
Sweet. I wonder if we'll get Sky remastered someday. Also, NIS America, please print more copies of your physical games for those of us that miss out after like 8 months.
We're talking about something so far in the future. A lot can change. What will be the state of gaming, consoles and the world then? Maybe there will be a medium entirely different form what we have now. Although we still don't have flying cars or robot maids yet, so IDK.
It'd be great if they could all just start new studio but I'm sure that's easier said than done. The fact they can't keep their IPs like others have mentioned totally blows for them and us fans. Who knows what happens to them with Microsoft now.
Not sure this is for me but it's interesting. How long before the PS Nintendo Direct article, telling Sony to improve? It's been several hours now. For the record this was the best one of the Summer for my tastes.
Online guides are great when you need them. Imagine loving a game and then getting stuck somewhere for hours to the point of wanting to give up. Imagine being a kid in the 80s playing Castlevania II when it first came out.

Re: Tales of Graces f Remastered Slashes to PS5, PS4 in January 2025
Good news here. There are a few other Tales games that are still stuck on old consoles, like Takes of the Abyss, etc. Hope they make it some day too.

Re: Xbox's Indiana Jones and the Great Circle Comes to PS5 in Spring 2025
And if you blink at the exact wrong time you'll miss the PS5 logo.
Re: Forget Yasuke, Assassin's Creed Shadows' Naoe Has Parkour Tricks and a Grappling Hook
I didn't need to see this, already plan to play as Naoe as much as possible.
Re: Rumour: Xbox to Announce a 'Big' Game Coming to PS5 at Gamescom
I know it won't be, but I would love to see a Fable Trilogy Collection on PS5.
Re: CrossCode Creator Reveals Gorgeous Pixel Action RPG Alabaster Dawn
Looks and sounds great. I still need to play CrossCode too.
Re: 'We're Back, Baby,' Exclaims Acclaimed Tango Gameworks Director
Congrats to all at Tango.
Re: Shuttered Xbox Dev Tango Gameworks to Be Revived, Hi-Fi Rush IP Acquired
Sounds like good news. I wish the folks at Tango all the best and look forward to their future game titles.
Re: Beware! Scalpers Reselling Astro Bot PS5 Controllers for Ridiculous Prices
And water is wet. Sadly this is how things will continue to be. Anything that is limited or even perceived as such is bought by "resellers."
Re: Poll: Have You Pre-Ordered an Astro Bot PS5 DualSense Controller?
Yup. Tried this morning but couldn't, but worked just a bit ago.
Re: Visions of Mana Playable Demo Available Now on PS5, PS4
Sweet. I didn't need a demo but I am happy to have it.
Re: EA Sports College Football 25 (PS5) - Stunning Sim Worth the 10 Year Wait
Wait. You can't export/import your Draft Classes into Madden? Maybe they'll release an update for this when Madden is released. That seems like a big oversight otherwise.
Re: Astro Bot PS5 Controller Announced, Pre-Orders Start 9th August
Looks really nice. Hopefully I can get one. Then I'll get the Nendoroid ASTRO figure(s).
Re: Here's Your First Look at the Like a Dragon: Yakuza Television Show
@tameshiyaku Agree with you there. Somehow I don't see there being much silliness and humor in this live action adaption. We'll see.
Re: GTA 6 Not Affected by Current Union Strike Over AI Issues
Okay then. Why is GTA6 "exempt"? Doesn't make sense to me why one game wouldn't be affected. At least w/o more info than is provided here.
Re: Rumour: Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered Leaks Ahead of Imminent Reveal
If true this is great news. I would also love see the first Blood Omen remastered.
Re: Video Game Performers to Strike Due to AI Concerns
Hope their rights / demands are met. Human beings are more than capable of doing voice work, etc. and there are plenty of us. We don't need AI to do it for us, to replace us. We need AI to help us do what we are already doing.
Re: Crimson Desert, That Stunning PS5 Open World RPG, Is Actually Playable at Gamescom
There is a lot of stuff in the trailers for this game. Very curious to see the impressions of graphics and gameplay.
Re: Capcom Says It Won't Give Up on Physical Games, Despite Utter Domination of Digital Sales
"93% of its overall sales come from digital games"
Does that account for games with only digital purchase options? Those titles should not be included when we talk about comparing physical to digital sales numbers. Kunitsu-Gami is not the only digital exclusive title from Capcom.
Re: EA Sports College Football 25 Sells 2.2 Million Copies for $100
Super excited but not for that much. Even $70 is too much for me.
Re: Neverness to Everness Makes GTA an Anime Open World on PS5
Looks pretty sweet. Interesting that you can switch characters on the fly. Life sim elements are always cool with me too.
Re: PS2 Launch Title Summoner Surprises with a Full Slate of PS5, PS4 Trophies
Summoner was one of the games I bought on launch day. It was pretty good for the day. Still don't see it listed in the PS Store though.
Re: Poland's Prime Minister Lidia Sobieska Appeals for Four More Years in Tekken 8 on PS5
Congrats for making some of us Google Poland Prime Minister and be confused as H. Then searching for Lidia Sobieska and we see the deal.
Re: Forgotten PS2 Launch RPG Summoner Resurrected for PS5, PS4
@IntrepidWombat I remember the Easter Egg too. Summoner was one of the games I bought when I got my launch day PS2 at Best Buy. I remember getting stuck pretty deep in the game and had to give up. I don't think it was a bug, just my bad gaming. Will check this version out.
Re: Talking Point: Was Sony Right to Resist Adding PS5 Exclusives to PS Plus Day One?
There are people that still buy new games at full price, either physical or digital, but I don't know how any of these game companies can charge $15-$20 month considering the development costs.

Re: 'Unannounced Remake' In Development at 2K Has Fans Clamouring for the Classics
How about Sid Meier's Pirates!
Re: Assassin's Creed Remakes Are on the Way, Ubisoft Confirms
Not really sure but almost all of them save #1 are playable on PS5 already.
Re: PS5, PS4's New PS2 Emulator Fails to Pass Tech Test
While not the absolute worst, this is sad to hear. Does the average consumer care about PS2 games? There must be some demand from gamers like us, otherwise why would Sony even try at all.
Re: Trails through Daybreak 2 Leak May Point Towards Imminent Announcement
Sweet. I wonder if we'll get Sky remastered someday. Also, NIS America, please print more copies of your physical games for those of us that miss out after like 8 months.
Re: Unsurprisingly, There Seems to Be a New Tales Game in Development
I look forward to hearing more whenever there is something.
Re: PlayStation Likely to Go All-Digital By PS7, Analyst Predicts
We're talking about something so far in the future. A lot can change. What will be the state of gaming, consoles and the world then? Maybe there will be a medium entirely different form what we have now. Although we still don't have flying cars or robot maids yet, so IDK.
Re: FromSoftware Boss Puts Elden Ring Difficulty Discourse to Bed, Once and For All
That's a great explanation. This sure doesn't seem to affect sales at all either so good.
Re: Beloved Management Sim Let's School Kicks Off PS5, PS4 Semester in July
Looks like it could be in Japan by the uniforms and overall setting. As an anime fan I'm interested.
Re: PS5 Fan Favourite Stellar Blade Sold Over 1 Million Copies, Dev Estimates
Congrats, well deserved.
Re: Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition (PS5) - Cult Classic's Remaster Nearly Picture Perfect
I first played this on the Xbox 360 and loved it. Good reason to play it again on PS5.
Re: Silly Speculation Alleges Sony May Have Signed Secret PS5 Exclusivity for Black Myth: Wukong
Seems like "manufactured outrage" is the order of the day on the internet. Very tiring. Add it to the pile.
Re: Tango Gameworks Employees Treated to Pizza Party as Studio Officially Closes Doors
It'd be great if they could all just start new studio but I'm sure that's easier said than done. The fact they can't keep their IPs like others have mentioned totally blows for them and us fans. Who knows what happens to them with Microsoft now.
Re: Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake Gets November PS5 Release, Dragon Quest 1 and 2 Remakes Coming 2025
@ShogunRok @pumpkin_head @Bentleyma
In the full showcase, Creator Yuji Horii talks at the end and suggests playing the remakes III, I and then II. I was confused until I saw that too.
Re: Sony Game LEGO Horizon Adventures Reveals Footage in Nintendo Direct
Not sure this is for me but it's interesting. How long before the PS Nintendo Direct article, telling Sony to improve? It's been several hours now. For the record this was the best one of the Summer for my tastes.
Re: Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D Remake Is a Full $60 Release on PS5
Looks great and totally worth it for me. Not so for everyone then wait for a sale.
Re: Cancelled Over 10 Years Ago, PS2-Era Action Game Captain Blood Returns on PS5, PS4
Looks pretty interesting. BTW, as of this post the Youtube link starts at the 81 second mark on here. Might want to update that.
Re: Embracer Group Reportedly Closes Alone in the Dark Developer Pieces Interactive
That does suck. I wonder if this will happen to other devs when other Embracer Group games fail to live up to sales figures.
Re: FromSoftware Boss Says Using Guides to Beat Its Games a 'Perfectly Valid Playstyle'
Online guides are great when you need them. Imagine loving a game and then getting stuck somewhere for hours to the point of wanting to give up. Imagine being a kid in the 80s playing Castlevania II when it first came out.
Re: Preview: Astro Bot on PS5 Could Be the Best 3D Platformer This Side of Nintendo
Super excited. Hopefully this is just the beginning for full length Astro Bot games.
Re: Square Enix Offers $30 Upgrade to Play Life is Strange: Double Exposure Two Weeks Early
Early access like this is lame. If the game is ready two weeks earlier, just release the bleeping thing and charge standard price.
Re: Preview: Assassin's Creed Shadows' Two Characters Will Satisfy Both Old and New Fans on PS5
Sounds good to me. May lead to replay missions as the other characters.
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows' 'Smaller' Open World Map Is Still a Healthy Chunk of Japan
Very excited. Video games set in Japan interest me most of all.
Re: Three New PS2 Games Now Available on PS5, PS4 with PS Plus Premium
@Bizzy Very curious on this and more. The first 3 Sly games are also on a PS3 collection.
Re: Preview: Phantom Blade Zero PS5 Slashes Through Soulslike Tropes for Pure, Cutthroat Action
Glad to hear it's more on action. Look forward to more.
Re: PS5 Action RPG Phantom Blade Zero Actually Looks Insane in Raw Gameplay Footage
Look forward to seeing more. I wonder how difficult a game it will be.
