Reminds me of this funny video I saw a while back: https://youtu.be/kY9EX28GKvk

@StrickenBiged you’re gonna get detention.

Revelio dinero! On another note, I’m surprised to see AC Valhalla on that list. I mean it was fun and all, and I certainly put my hours in, but is this spike just because they added one, little, final mission? No way people are buying the game for that are they?

I’ve been wanting to give this a go ever since I heard David Attenborough do the trailer for it!

Elden Ring was great. It was my first real foray into a FromSoft title and I’m glad I started there. Elden Ring even made me better at other video games. Praise be to the tarnished! (Now go finish your books, George. Please.)

Avalanche is lying. There will be definitely Quidditch added in DLC. I heard NPCs talking about it.

@KundaliniRising333 yes, it’s good beyond visuals. It makes full use of the DualSense features; it has a good story (cute and a bit juvenile, but still thoroughly enjoyable for adults and big kids). The combat is great. Idk what else to say, but you’ll like it. If you don’t, tell me and I’ll send you a gift basket to say I’m sorry. But also the gift basket will just have a bunch of greasy nuts and bolts in it.

I highly recommend Ratchet for anyone who hasn’t given it a shot already. Lots of fun.

Cool. But just let me use my AirPods please, Sony. Please!

@djlard
The controversy is all about whether the NPCs should be programmed to put milk in their tea or not. I don’t really understand it, but I’m not British. Apparently people have strong feelings about that I guess.

@uptownsoul
“…according to who? Link please…”
Nah. Wasn’t Link. Must’ve been someone else.

Sounds like a good length to me.

@Melee_Ace samesies.

I guess everyone stopped reading PushSquare’s disclaimer at the top of the comments section…

I’ll never grind for any trophy. Just ain’t my thing…

I probably spent more time reading about games on PushSquare than playing them…

@DukeeDukems there are no free lunches, gents.

@riceNpea it’s gonna be Ben Stiller. Didn’t you see the commercial? Haha

@SoulChimera I also got 0 hours on PSVR. Are you using it on a PS5? I am.

This looks very promising.

@Uromastryx no, you bought Lords of the Fallen. This is THE Lords of the Fallen haha 😂

This was a good game. Gave everyone the opportunity to go deep with it. Glad they’re finally offering some sort of ending. Personally I didn’t make it through all the DLC, but I will one day.

@Liam, @Robert, @Sammy, @Stephen,

I read the parameters for this list and understand that the definition of “exclusive” is a bit mercurial these days. Still…wondering if y’all have a list of games that can ONLY be played on PS5, not PS4 or anywhere else. Like Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart for example. If so, please let me know! Thanks!!

Well…That’s a hundred more than what I was hoping for, but not really outside the realm of possibility that I was expecting. I probably won’t get it at launch but will scoop it up eventually (whether or not the price drops).

I beat it on Switch. Great fun! And my first foray into the franchise. I admit I used the hints quite a bit though.

I dunno nuthin’ about fashion but I know ugly when I see it. Yikes.

Far out. 😎 🌴 I hope it’s like Money Heist (Casa de Papel). The reviews aren’t looking so hot. But don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.

@Bleachedsmiles

Believe me, I get your point. I am not defending this program per se, just wanted to express my surprise that so many people seemed shocked by the mere idea of this when it’s a very common business practice everywhere.

But to engage in friendly argument while dinner stews …the examples you cited of TV, phone and internet are famous outliers in this practice. “Burn and churn” they call it. It’s when clients for a service are so numerous and pay so little that the company doesn’t really care if you bounce from their service to another. Ex. Verizon will lose a bajillion clients to AT&T on Tuesday but on the same day a bajillion left AT&T for Verizon. Whereas think of a small-time tax attorney who has only a couple dozen clients who all pay him thousands a year. His clients are precious and he’ll fight to keep them. Sony’s closer to the phone companies in the spectrum of things, but these console wars sure are heating up…

I think you’re right however that Sony could identify and use some other indicators of customer loyalty if they are indeed going to go through with some sort of rewards program. Some of the examples you included would be great.

To be clear, I don’t anticipate contacting PS customer service about anything. Ever really. If I do, I’m quite sure I’ll still get decent service even at the bottom rung. If I don’t, I can complain. The fact that they provide a top tier of service for customers who spend a lot of money though doesn’t shock me. It’s normal (meaning not good or bad, just common practice). I guess with my original comment I really just wanted to point out that I think some people on here, not you, are overreacting.

And maaaaan, I really wanted to respond to your example of looking in the wallets at the bistro, but I dinner’s done and I gotta run. Thanks for the polite conversation and welcome diversion.

Right. I agree with all of you in principle. Everyone should get the five star, red carpet customer support. All of us are equal. But wait…resources are limited. When you consider that, it makes sense that more important clients and customers get rewarded for their loyalty. It happens literally at every business in every industry. Frequent flyers get better customer service, not to mention better seats, access to lounges, etc. Even informal reward schemes apply—the regular at the local bistro gets the table that he likes. You answer the email from the dedicated client you like right away and let the other other wait ‘til tomorrow. Surely there’s some details they could work out, but c’mon, a dedicated customer will always get preference over others because they have demonstrated that their custom is literally more valuable than others. Sorry for the unpopular opinion.

RDR2 takes the cake for me.

It’s looking like it’s easily worth 500 smackeroos. That’s totally fine. Give us the good stuff. PlayStation: for the payers.

Shucks! I thought they would figure that out. I’ve got a bunch of unfinished—even untouched—PSVR games.

I imagine AC Infinity will have a hub in the modern world with an Animus and then you’ll hop in there to visit different story lines in various places throughout history. Each season they can keep adding more destinations.

I am really excited for this. I like the RPG and old school AC games, and can appreciate both styles. Valhalla had too much content though. I sunk well over a hundred hours and still never completely finished all the DLC and side quests. I had fun, but I prefer to beat games and move on. This new one seems like it will be a solid mix of old school and new school elements, but with an appropriate length.

That’s great! I hope all the PSVR games get ported. Better still would just be backwards compatibility. I snagged a bunch at massive discounts, but I haven’t even touched half of them.

Hey that’s too bad, but I’m still stoked for this game and life at Hogwarts.
