I’m typically a Day One person, but as quickly as the PS5 generation seems to be running the PS6 will be out before we know it. I may get one, but it’s unlikely.
@ShogunRok I think the biggest issue is the appearance. An all powerful $700 system and relatively no new games to show it off. What did Sony show? TLoU2 remastered, Spider-man 2, Ratchet & Clank, GT7, Forbidden West…I think the most recent game was Hogwarts Legacy which released 19 months ago.
It just compounds with a somewhat negative trending for PlayStation right now.
And that’s without the alleged removal of Concord from people’s console. Delist the game. Make it unplayable. But removing it from people’s consoles completely? That’s kind of scary.
The problem with Phil is the lack of transparency. He knew Indy was launching on PS5 when he sidestepped the question and said it wasn’t one of the first four. Instead of being honest with the Xbox players and treating them like adults, he left it at that until now. That’s a pretty crappy way to treat the people that pay your bills.
I really enjoyed this when it released on the PS4. Tried it with the PS3, but the controller held it back. The center pad for the DualShock 4 made all the difference. That said, I quit after maxing out classes and jobs (level 55 at the time). So much content but not enough time. With all the expansions I wouldn’t know where to begin.
Saints and Sinners was on my wishlist when I found them available with Plus. I started the first with the PSVR but didn’t get that far into it. Now I can give it another go!
My available gaming time would never support GamePass. My backlog is so massive, I never need to buy a new game. And if there’s one I want, 50% off is 6 months or less. Much better value for me than a sub.

Does it come with a free change of skivvies?
Re: DOOM, Elder Scrolls, Fallout Devs Strike in Protest of Parent Company, Microsoft
$200 million to make a AAA game will look cheap in a few years. And $70 games? Think higher.

Re: Death Stranding Gets a Surprise Xbox Series X|S Port, Out Now
Loved this game and all of the cameos! Will the PlayStation player structures carry over to the Xbox version or will they be starting fresh?
This may mean that OD will eventually find its way to PlayStation!
Re: Naughty Dog's Next Game Will Reportedly Put More of a Focus on 'Player Freedom'
The Last of Us 2 released 4 years and 4 months ago. That was the last new Naughty Dog release.

Some people need to step away from the keyboard and get a life. Pathetic.
Re: Sony Product Manager Urges PS5 Fans to 'Settle Down' Over Ads
Sony didn’t like all of your comments and took PSN down. I hope you’re all happy!
Re: 80s Anime, After Burner Fans Should Add Rogue Flight to Their PS5 Wishlist
Gave me Macross Saga vibes.
Re: Round Up: What Was Announced During Sony's State of Play Livestream for September 2024?
Sword of Play seems more appropriate based on the games shown.
Re: What Time Is PlayStation's State of Play?
Sony’s done a good job of lowering expectations while still sub performing this generation. I expect more of the same until shown differently.
Re: Days Gone PS5 Remaster Rumours Start to Snowball
Maybe the “Remaster” is replacing Sam Witwer with Nolan North or Troy Baker.
Re: Minecraft Is Dropping PSVR Support Early Next Year
Is Minecraft on PSVR2 or is it just PSVR?

Re: You Can't Buy Concord on PS5, PC Anymore, But You Can Buy the Official Merch
Will Sony come to my house to remove my merch like they did the Concord install on people’s console?
I’m curious, do the earned trophies still exist or did Sony wipe those as well?

Re: Talking Point: Is PS5 Pro Way Too Expensive?
The benefits don’t justify the cost. I’ll hold my money until the PS6.
The question now is how much will that upgrade cost?
Re: PS5 Pro Can Run PS4 Games Better Via Improved Backwards Compatibility
I’d buy it if it gave me access to and could play my PS3 digital library. Otherwise, hard no.
Re: Poll: Are You Sold on PS5 Pro?
Sony decided to become the scalper. No Astro”bot” needed.

FTC is still fighting the Activision acquisition and Microsoft had a major outage today. There’s just so much “corporate” about that brand.
Re: EA Sports College Football 25 Will Be One of USA's Biggest PS5 Games This Year
Already loaded. So freakin’ excited for this! Just. Need. Off. Work.
Re: Amazon's Excellent Fallout TV Adaptation Up for 16 Emmy Awards
Such a great adaptation! I loved The Last of Us, but it was the same story with character additions and expansions. Really well done, but it was TLoU.
Fallout was Fallout. A live version of the game with a story and characters that really worked.
@DennisReynolds I agree that he owns that role and plays Homelander pitch perfect.
Re: Talking Point: What Are Your Thoughts on the Concord PS5, PC Beta?
It appears to be very well polished, but team based shooters aren’t my genre. Pass for me, but I can see people enjoying it.
Re: Zenless Zone Zero (PS5) - Characterful Character Action Makes for Another Gacha Great
I have zero idea what a Gacha game is. Got ya? Gotcha? I’ll download it for S&Gs and see if I like it.

Re: PS Plus Subscribers Can Play Concord PS5 Beta This Weekend
I’d say this release is a big deal. Firewalk is a PlayStation studio and my expectations are aligned with that of any PlayStation first party studio.
Re: EA Sports College Football 25 May Just Be PS5's Next Best Sports Game
I could just set this to have the computer play itself and be happy

Re: PS Plus Premium Gets 6 New PSVR2 Games, Available to Download Now
Saints and Sinners was on my wishlist when I found them available with Plus. I started the first with the PSVR but didn’t get that far into it. Now I can give it another go!

Nope. All need the headset.

Re: Talking Point: What Are Your PS5 Predictions for Summer Game Fest 2024?
Disappointment. Plain and simple. Anything that exceeds that will be welcome.
Re: EA Sports College Football 25 Looks Like the Best PS5 American Football Game in Ages
I’m not sure how deeply I’ll dive into this game, but I’m pretty freaking excited about this one!
Re: Summer Game Fest Will Focus on Existing Games, Not Massive Announcements
Wow. 2027 is when a next gen console should be coming. That’s pretty disheartening.
Re: Round Up: What Was Announced During Sony's State of Play Livestream for May 2024?
To be fair, they did save Astro as last for a reason.
Re: Round Up: What Was Announced During Sony's State of Play Livestream for May 2024?
Astro looks cool and I can already feel the controller coming alive in my hands! Would love a VR version just to get the added immersion.
That said, the lack of much else first party suggests that nothing is close to releasing meaning at least 12 months or more.
Re: Heist Shooter Fairgame$ on Track to Deliver AAA Multiplayer Experience for PS5, PC
They need to rename it to Fairgame$tar$ so it can join Destruction AllStars and Foamstars in the live service bin.
