@Broosh I honestly don't think they could now. They are so focused on story based games now, I don't think they could make a game like Crash 3 or Jak and Daxter again. I miss Crash, only Naughty Dog back then could make them good.
Well for one thing. Cloud saves should be free like on Xbox. I think Sony should set up an instant game library again like they did in the PS3 days again.
@JamieO great review I always loved this game. However I got to it 10 years later than games like Mario Kart 64 and Diddy Kong Racing, so the nostalgia isn't completely there for me. Definitely better than the Land Before Time Racing Game.
@ImmaturityRules yeah seriously they show us 15 minutes of the Last of Us 2 gameplay( If you can even call it that honestly) and they call Microsoft bloated this year. That Conferance was great and I'm excited to choose Xbox again next gen. Just saying Crackdown 3 was better than Days Gone.
@tameshiyaku I don't think it's 60 on any platform. Pretty sure Activision was lazy and just copied the N'sane Trilogy's engine. Team Sonic Racing is a great alternative.
Sadly know body will care about 3d audio kind of like how nobody cares about the Switch's HD rumble. Good thing is 3d audio wo't make the prices of the controllers to go up like all the useless features in the Switch and PS4 controllers.
@Rolyatthegoon Dont't forget you can even do Lan parties for games like Left 4 Dead between ones and 360s. As well as Lan parties for Crimson Skies between Xbox, 360, and One.
I'm getting Sonic. I can't support Activision anymore. Also 30fps for a kart racer kind of hurts especially when Mario Kart 8 ran at 60fps on the Wii U.
Team Sonic Racing. I'm still hoping it's as good as Transformed.
There is also a Guacamelee collection coming out on May 28th. Picking that up as well.
@deepspace5d Well Resident Evil 2 was a highly requested remake and we don't need to say anymore more about Last of Us 2. This game just has a been there, done that feeling. Once reviews come in, I'm sure my opinion will change though.
Well I guess og PS4 owners should't upgrade to the Pro. Sounds like we should just save our money because the PS5 will offer more than the pro can anyday. Good thing Sony followed Microsoft. The end product will be much better for it.
Probably the best exclusive title I've played since Pikmin 3. God of War started as a game that I thought would ruin the franchise to probably my 2nd favorite God of War. ( God of War 3 can't be topped.) Still can't call it my Game of the Year though because Celeste and Red Dead 2 were really special to me.
Sonic and All-Stars racing transformed is the only kart racing game to stand up to Mario Kart. Diddy Kong Racing was good too. Crash kind of feels like a poor mans Diddy Kong Racing with a great drift machanic. 30fps is a deal breaker in a racing title though.
I think they were missing the big opening title and the big end title. I feel like a new trailer for Last of Us 2 would have left a better impression for fans.
I'm picking this up now. Sure CTR is good too, but that is a game I've already played to death. Sonic is a new experience. Plus Transformed was awesome.
@InsertUsername Not trolling. I don't like the style of game Uncharted is. Most of Sony's 1st party titles play like uncharted. Therefore I would rather play Crackdown 3 then something like Days Gone.
Crackdown 3 is really fun. I'd rather play that than another behind the shoulder 3rd person action narrative game that Sony pumps out. Where is the variety at? At least Xbox has different genres with their exclusives. And no the PSVR does not have as good of a library as the Xbox One.
Backwards Compatibility should be included for at least your digital backlog. Some of these like Scott Pilgrim VS the World are stuck on your PS3. Once that system fails you lose that game. Would be nice to have a newer system to play these on.
Now if only Sony made any other games other than 3rd person action games. Where is Jak & Daxter, Modnation Racers, Puppeteer, Ratchet & Clank, Sly Cooper etc?
I would say they are a decent developer. They just haven't made anything that is truly great like Santa Monica Studios. However we have some good games like Disrupter, Spyro 1, and 2, Ratchet and Clank 2, 3, Deadlock and Crack in Time and Sunset Overdrive. Hopefully we get more Ratchet and Clank in the future.
@Fight_Sora_Fight Nice article. Never knew the pro had a 1080 mode. However I'll take the extra power. Only time I noticed framedrops was in the pirates world. But even then it wasn't that bad. Pretty sure it looks gorgeous regardless.
@PS_Nation remember competition is a good thing. Microsoft might not have exclusives but it does have the better online service with the free cloud saving as well as some form of backwards compatibility. Because of this the PS5 will most likely have backwards compatibility next gen. Try to support Microsoft with some of there ideas. It will make the PS5 even better,
@JJ2 The way the camera interacts with the character reminds me of HZD. It's a more cinematic approach. State of decay is ok. It could me a good game if it wasn't so glitchy.
Best exclusive on the PS4 easily. However I would say I enjoyed Red Dead and Celeste just a bit more. God of War was great, but God of War 3 is still the best God of War. This God of War is a one and done game for me, can't imagine it would be fun to replay because of the unskippable dialogue.

Re: The Last of Us 2 Is 'Hands Down the Most Ambitious Game Naughty Dog Has Ever Made'
But will it be better than Crash Bandicoot Warped on the PS1?

@playstation1995 lmao. I needed a good joke today.
Re: Hardware Review: Nacon Asymmetric PS4 Controller - An Affordable Xbox-Style Alternative That's Hard to Fault
@FullbringIchigo We need a controller that you can swap the dpad and analog stick placements at our own will.
Re: Hardware Review: Nacon Asymmetric PS4 Controller - An Affordable Xbox-Style Alternative That's Hard to Fault
I really hope the PS5 controller has a better battery life and adopts the asymmetrical analog sticks. It's just better on your joints these days.
Re: Expect Even More Big Budget Games from PlayStation's First-Party Studios on PS5
@FullbringIchigo Also they got Kingdom Hearts 3 for some reason. Een though no other game is on a Microsoft platform.

Re: Reaction: Bloated Xbox E3 2019 Press Conference Fails to Capitalise on Sony No-Show
It was a perfectly fine show. Honestly Halo looks like it is an Xbox One game as well.

Re: Sony's Flogging Days Gone Harder Than a Freaker Who Keeps Getting Back Up
@JJ2 That reminds me of when Cuphead came out The one reviewer couldn't even pass the tutorial level. Said it was too hard.
Re: Sony's Flogging Days Gone Harder Than a Freaker Who Keeps Getting Back Up
@JJ2 Did you also know Ubisoft made ZombiU as well. They are so creative with titles sometimes.
Re: Sony's Flogging Days Gone Harder Than a Freaker Who Keeps Getting Back Up

Re: Sony's Flogging Days Gone Harder Than a Freaker Who Keeps Getting Back Up
It's kind of tough to get excited for this one. Zombie games have been everywhere in the last 10 years.
Re: PS5 Confirmed to Be Backwards Compatible with PS4 Games
Well I guess og PS4 owners should't upgrade to the Pro. Sounds like we should just save our money because the PS5 will offer more than the pro can anyday. Good thing Sony followed Microsoft. The end product will be much better for it.
Re: Soapbox: One Year Later and God of War's Overall Quality Still Blows My Mind

Re: Wisp Circuit Is the Latest Team Sonic Racing Track and Song to Be Revealed
I'm hoping the game is at least half as good as the soundtrack.
Re: Poll: Are You a Big Borderlands Fan, and Are You Hyped for Borderlands 3?
I'll wait for it to hit $14.99. It's an alright series with friends.
Re: Hands On: Can Crash Team Racing Compete with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe?
Sonic and All-Stars racing transformed is the only kart racing game to stand up to Mario Kart. Diddy Kong Racing was good too. Crash kind of feels like a poor mans Diddy Kong Racing with a great drift machanic. 30fps is a deal breaker in a racing title though.
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Games for April 2019?
The PS3 selection is pretty lackluster this month if I say so.
Re: PS Plus April 2019 PS4 Games Announced
@AdamNovice yeah the og Xbox game was the only standout title for me as well. At least that game is awesome.
Re: Talking Point: What Did You Think of Sony's State of Play Livestream?
I think they were missing the big opening title and the big end title. I feel like a new trailer for Last of Us 2 would have left a better impression for fans.
Re: Castle Crashers Remastered Making Its Way to PS4 This Summer
If this is the same port as the Xbox One version, than the online is a laggy mess. Only get this if you got 3 others to play with.
Re: Google's Stadia Controller Has an Awful Lot In Common with the PS4's DualShock 4
That controller looks awful. They should have copied the Xbox controller. Hopefully the battery life is good at least
Re: SEGA Has Released a Team Sonic Racing Trailer That Actually Shows the Game
I'm picking this up now. Sure CTR is good too, but that is a game I've already played to death. Sonic is a new experience. Plus Transformed was awesome.
Re: Sounds Like There's a Lot of Cutscenes in Days Gone's Lengthy Campaign
@tomassi That's exactly why I would never replay God of War or Red Dead 2. I'm only interested in the story the 1st time.
Re: Soapbox: Crackdown 3 Is Proof That Microsoft Is Still Playing Catch-Up to Sony

Re: Spider-Man PS4 Platinum Trophy Achievers Rewarded with Free Avatar
Now that's a good idea. Every game should do this. Makes trophy hunting a lot more rewarding.
Re: Ubisoft Will Release Three or Four Major Games Before March 2020
A sequel to Rayman Legends and Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle would be really nice.
Re: Feature: Why You Shouldn't Worry About PS5 Backwards Compatibility

Re: Crash Team Racing PS1 to PS4 Comparison Is Seriously Impressive
Honestly it's not really that impressive looking. Hopefully they are targeting 60fps.
Re: Metacritic Dubs Capcom the Best Publisher of 2018

Re: Feature: Push Square Readers' Top 10 Most Anticipated PS4 Games of 2019

Re: Feature: Push Square Readers' Top 10 Most Anticipated PS4 Games of 2019
@JJ2 Kind of like a more polished up State of Decay, except with the really cool Zombie hoard gimmick. Maybe mixed with a bit of Horizon Zero Dawn.
Re: Feature: Push Square Readers' Top 10 Most Anticipated PS4 Games of 2019
@OmegaYato Yup. Days Gone honestly just looks like another open world Zombie game. Probably will be good enough just not anything special.
Re: Feature: Push Square Readers' Top 10 Most Anticipated PS4 Games of 2019
Days Gone doesn't look like anything special so far. Kingdom Hearts 3 and RE2 for me.
Re: Game of the Year 2018: #1 - God of War
Best exclusive on the PS4 easily. However I would say I enjoyed Red Dead and Celeste just a bit more. God of War was great, but God of War 3 is still the best God of War. This God of War is a one and done game for me, can't imagine it would be fun to replay because of the unskippable dialogue.
