Ordered from Game UK without any hassle. Trying to find the quote where they said we'd have good notice before pre-orders went live...because that hasn't been true.

Outside of marketing nonsense, I don't see an issue with this. I'm buying a PS5 to play my games in their best quality, it will still deliver on that.

Demon Souls, Harry Potter, Miles Morales...and a price and release date I'm happy with. Very good.

This is one of those games I want to love but the difficulty really puts me off.

Looks great. I've got the platinum with a friend over but I'd love to play this with my wife. We recently completed Moving Out using the assist mode and with these changes to Overcooked, this finally looks accessible enough for her to try

More importantly....are reviews for Tony Hawk's coming soon 😅

I hope they add a stats page so I can view how many games I've played etc. I don't mind some of the teams games as they can be fun. The one round I truly hate is the balance boards.

Surprised how devisive this has been. I think it looks pretty cool and great for the reveal to be a proper gameplay reveal rather than CGI nonsense. Look forward to seeing more.

Crash 4, Spelunky 2, Braid Anniversary and some cool looking stick man platformer...it's not the big hitting show some people want but there's some really cool stuff in there.

And somehow Bugsnax actually looks good 😂

I have it on PC and Switch but never got round to finishing it. Even on easy mode I struggle to beat the game. I absolutely love the art style and music so I might give it another go though

Until today I never knew I needed a pink Playstation controller.

Literally been waiting for this review before taking action...pre order now being placed 😊

I found it extremely boring if I'm honest. Watchdogs and AC look cool but would have had the same impact on me if just dropped on their YouTube channel one day. Not the worst presentation, just felt very unnecessary.

@Scollurio I just don't relate that scene to a ""mandatory dog scene" that would be hard to stomach.

With regards your point on Joel's death being unearned...it feels more than believable that Abby and a group of old fireflys would want Joel dead. Not only did he kill her Dad, in their eyes he is the reason the world doesn't have a vaccine. I don't understand why Joel already having been through bad things means he can't be killed.

Joel is not the hero. Ellie is not the hero. Abby is not a hero. These are complex characters in a complex world and things are not black and white. People seem to think Joel's death says something about the morality of his choice. For me TLOU2 hammers home more than ever how morally grey their decisions are. All you have to do is see something from different perspectives and something can seem right or wrong. Joel's choice to save Ellie is essentially the "trolley problem", it's not something that has an answer about right or wrong.

@Scollurio I'm not meaning this in aggressive way, but I feel like you're time would better be spent on another thread. Doesn't feel like you're hear for a discussion. In answer to your question though...what dog scene?! Not only did I "stomach" it, it wasn't enough of a big deal to register it.

I'd be interested to know the ratings of the game based on people who did and didn't see the spoilers. It's very anecdotal but it seems that people who didn't see the spoilers are more likely to have enjoyed the game. I feel lucky to have missed all the spoilers and ignored almost all marketing. I think this leads to a better player experience.

Quick summary would be that it's a fantastic game that with a bit of editing could have been perfect for me. I think I understand why people are annoyed Joel get's killed so early but I don't agree. Think it worked for the story.

• Ellie, Dina, Joel, Tommy & Abbey all great characters and portrayed perfectly.
• When Joel has his head caved in, I hated Abbey and that group. By the end I really liked her
• Abbey and Ellie fight was so well done. I had no idea who to route for and felt uncomfortable.
• Some of the set pieces in the game and incredible. Aquarium, football stadium, museum etc
• Thought they did a good job of building on TLOU story
• The tension I felt during some of the combat areas we insane.
• Ellie and Dina <3
• When Ellie get's PTSD in the barn I had literal chills.
• The scene on the beach with Abbey and Ellie. I felt awful trying to drown Abbey and so glad she got away.
• All the flashback scenes were great

Things I didn't like as much

• The ending 2 hours felt sooooo long and unnecessary
• The pacing was a little slow in areas. Playing as Abbey was great but didn't fit the pace the game was building too
• The last 2 hours has so many "fade to black" moments where the game could have ended with an ambiguous ending
• The scene where the Island got raided at the end felt out of place in TLOU. Not a major complaint but felt more like Uncharted

This is the gaming news I didn't know I needed! Been waiting on this for a while 😁

Played the level earlier and thought it was great, good job! Was super cool seeing the MM team playing around in the stream too

Awesome! Look forward to getting stuck into this.

As if people are actually mad about this 😅 I'm clearly getting out of touch

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES. Super excited about this one.

Both fantastic games. Maybe not the (Jim Sterling voice) "triple AAA" games that people claim they want but I think it's a solid offering.

Never mind Avengers/FF....The Quiet Man 2 is what we really want to see

The hysteria in this comment section around one mini boss being slightly patched is quite odd. I really don't see this as a big deal at all but the idea that From Soft games can't have their difficultly remotely altered (even by the dev themselves) is ridiculous.

Great figures! Glad to see it's doing well.

Didn't even know there was a DMC anime, might have to look into this. Just started 5 and am really blown away by how good it is.

@FullbringIchigo Hey, I've been on the site and few years now too. Whilst you're right that there does seem to be an increase in those who aren't particularly friendly, I'd say the best thing to do is not bite or argue back. Just ignore their comments and interact with those who are engaging in a civil discourse

@naruball nice to see someone speaking a bit of sense on the matter. I think people struggle to remember that our hobby is a business and decisions will get made based on good business. Profitable business lay off staff in areas not making enough money to drive profits up more.

With regards Crash, it's nice to see it doing well. Now we've got CTR coming back my nostalgia for the franchise will have been served

@DaweezMauiWowee Whilst I totally disagree with how you're talking to people, I personally haven't seen a good argument be presented as to why cross play is anything other than positive. I'm open to hearing them though.

Cross play from my perspective is surely where we want gaming to go and benefits many.

Are they happy with the quality of the games, or the amount of money they are making from them? I think we all know the answer.

My email was in my spam but finally picked it up today and will be giving it a go. I will not be letting anyone know if it's any good lol

Would have loved to watch and but it's just too early for me on a Friday! Will have to watch it when I get up

I tried the demo and was blown away. Despite a slighly high price point I've decide to buy it and can't wait to put my headphones in one night and go to another world.......

"But there’s very much a game beyond all the macchiato sipping, moustache twiddling hyperbole. "....fantastic haha

I've been playing every day since launch and still there are things I haven't done. The reason I'm usually quiet about Destiny on line is that those who don't play often pop up and tell you you're an idiot for buying into it.

Very puzzled by the seemingly anti cross play results by about 50% of pollsters.

"No, cross-play doesn't add anything of worth"...this statement seems objectively false. If cross play is implemented well, then it will give us a world where we can party up with our friends on any platform and game together. Surely this is objectively better for consumers?

EDIT: I'm referring to Cross Play as the ability to play with gamers on other platforms. I'm aware that cross progression and cross purchases are also being thrown into the discussion. Cross progression is something I can get behind but I don't see a world where cross purchase is viable for all games.

Good luck to them but really not my cup of tea. Would love to have seen another Resogun or Nex machina

Switch port confirmed

I'm in the same boat as BAMozzy, not really played since Curse of Osiris but the last few days I've been getting back into it and having a good time. Will likely try this out if I get some time in an evening

Awesome, thought it might be a bit further away but that's nice and close

Fortunately for Sony they have too many great games for me to think about jumping ship and cross play alone wouldn't make me do that. GamePass, Back Compat and Cross Play as a collective is a interesting package that I wish my preferred gaming platform would deliver. I have no idea what the correct business decision is but I'm not a stock holder so whatever benefits the gamer is best

I don't believe for one second that if Microsoft were in the lead they wouldn't still be doing all this if I'm honest, particularly not with Spencer heading it up. Sony and MS have vastly different business models so their strategies will be different.

Surprised to see how many people in the comments section were in the acquisition meetings so they can judge if its a good decision for Ninja Theory or not

Good luck to them and hope they make some more cool games 😎

Not sure why there ins't an option for "woooman" on the poll

To be honest the trailer looked fine, not overly serious in tone but looks like it could be fun.

The only thing that makes me sceptical about it being true is there isn't one new IP there. I would have assumed if it was a leak then some unannounced games would be there

I'll never say I'm not returning to Destiny but it's disappointed how much they've dropped the ball with this franchise as a whole. It has so much potential.

I'm sure the fall expansion will be great, but the Destiny road map needs some serious improvement if they want to put the franchise back in some positive light

Wow that's impressive numbers! Thoroughly deserved though.

Ooo I'd forgotten about this. Didn't get a chance to play it first time round so will likely pick it up for Switch

Might be in the minority but that trailer did nothing for me. Not too excited about it yet but hopefully when we get some decent information it'll look good.

Not a bad list mine would have Hellblade and Nioh in there.

I'm just going to complete Hellblade and then cast my vote.

@get2sammyb I thought the same but after playing at EGX this year they might have hooked me back in. Had an absolute blast with it

Of all the things people are asking to come back only Spyro makes sense to me. The last thing we want to happen is for Sony to remake games that will sell poorly and put them off games worthy of a remaster.
