After the absolute bore fest that was TWD Season 1....I'll pass on this.

Playstation community complains we get too many 2D side-scrollers....then we'll all vote for the 2D side-scroller

I'm a bit strange in that I like filling in surveys so this was great fun....

@AyanamiReign Resogun is more difficult than a lot of platinums so surprised that's your example. Almost all of my 12 plats were easier than Resogun lol

For me trophies can (not always) do the following:

• something fun to collect
• encourages me to try out different play styles
• encourages me to experience all the game has to offer
• something to look back on and see your gaming history
• compete/collect with friends

I like to think that if Crash 2 had trophies it would have one for collecting all the coloured gems....which at the time I did anyway but now it would be a trophy too. With regards the topic, I wish there was more consistency but it's not going to stop me buying a game.

Like some others I played the beta for a few hours and then spent the rest of the weekend playing other games such as Journey, Persona, Fat Princess Adventures & Life Is Strange....so in theory I'd rather play all those games more than The Division? Even though I can't put my finger on it, I'm not sold on it just yet!

@xX_RiscazZ_Xx @Bad-MuthaAdebisi From what I can gather we have access to one main mission and the Dark Zone...which I believe being in a team is recommended. We'll see how it all works.

@xX_RiscazZ_Xx Nice one! I hope we can...I'll be on tomorrow night at some point definitely

I've pre-ordered to get the beta...but if the beta is good then I'll keep my pre-order live.

Does anyone know what we're actually getting in the beta? Is it just the Dark Zone or do we get some PvE stuff too?

Great! Really enjoyed the last DLC, did it all with a friend so no doubt we'll jump back in for this!

I think from a gamers point of view, seeing stuff like Call of Duty & Fifa at the top is surprising when games like Bloodborne and Witcher 3 are winning all the awards. I guess sometimes those in the gaming community forget about the more casual player and how many sales they account for.

I've just bought Resogun in the sale but very tempted with some of the others!!

I'm really not bothered about trading...I personally have barely used the feature in the games that do have it. Not quite sure why people are starting to have such a downer on the game especially for really little things like this that in reality have very little impact... that's just my opinion

I can't tell whether this game looks really good...or really bad??

Looking like a great title for my vita!!

@wittypixel I didn't think anywhere actually charged you for the game before it released? Certainly in the UK you don't pay until it comes out, which means a few people will pre-order just for the beta and then if they like the beta probably will keep the pre-order.

I'm not hyped about the game, I need to know more about it and the beta is a good opportunity for me to do so and then make a decision.

Maybe I'm getting confused with where this fits in the series...but I'm surprised it's coming to Vita and PS3 considering Dragon Quest Heroes didn't?

One the games I'm looking forward to most this year...! Played some at EGX and it was brilliant.

And whilst I see people’s concern over this being released close to Uncharted…I’m not sure it will make that big an impact on sales. Out of all my friends, nobody is buying Uncharted but a fair few are buying R&C day one. We can’t be the only ones like this and I imagine there are lots of people who will buy both.

@ZeroXyko14 these are good days for working on those offline games we tell ourselves we're going to play. I've put 4 hours in on FF7

Great list and I'm tempted to buy DGH despite having never played a game like it....!

I hope I'm not alone in thinking this game is pretty mediocre...I wanted to enjoy it but nothing about it stands out and struggles to take my time over the other games I have. Just to list a few things that I think are either okay or absolute garbage: Characters, story, side quests, building, loading times, frame issues in building, shooting, dialogue choices, dialogue, menu interface, soundtrack...

Obviously this is only my humble opinion...but unworthy of a spot in my top 10.

@Anchorsam_9 mine would have to be....
1) The Witcher 3
2) Rocket League
3) Tales of Borderlands
4) Elder scrolls online
5) Borderlands The Handsome Collection

Would be boring if we all had the same....IMO just shows what a good varied year of games it's been.

Never thought I'd see Grow Home in someone's top 5! (mainly because it's an awful game)

Saying that, it's good to see all the Push Square guys have such varied top 5s...even if they are all wrong

@godslayer1975 I think that's being a bit harsh but it is only your opinion so your obviously entitled to it. This was always going to be hard to please all fans. If this keep true to the story, characters, environments etc then is it really that bad? We get to see FF7 in a new light. For me...if you just wanted nostalgia then we can play the original release.

I personally can't wait to see what they produce...hope the voice acting is better than in the trailer though. I'll probably play in Japanese with Subtitles if it lets me.

Fantastic! Love they fact they keep adding stuff...at this rate the game can be my sole driving game for this generation!

@Melucine just wondering how you are drifting because I had problems at first but have got better!

Mmm looks nice! Think this will replace my FF one over the festive season

It's bad news but this is where I'm happy I have Fallout 4, Personna 4 and Final Fantasy 7

£20 for the Dark Below - A "story", strikes, Raid
OR
£25 for a boost to level 25????

People were complaining £20 for the DLC was overpriced...so how on earth is £25 for NO ACTUAL CONTENT acceptable?!?!?

@kyleforrester87 Only about 6 hours in so been on the world map about an hour. I'm unfortunately aware of what becomes of Aeris at some point towards the end of disk 1 which is a bit annoying. Ah thanks that might be really good! I'll take a look tonight and see which one suits best

I'm playing it through for the first time ever and personally really enjoying it. I'm not too far in at the moment but I can see myself perusing it until the end. The only thing I wish was different (not a major gripe) is that it isn't turn based as I expected as the only turn based game I played was Pokemon where you can think about your move a bit more.

14/20 is pretty good I reckon Shame the conference was nothing special.

@Gamer83 Apologies, I must have slightly misunderstood your comment. I do see where you are coming from, in fact some of my friends say they prefer 6 or 8. I'm playing through 7 now so I'll have my own opinion on it soon

@Gamer83 I'm not a massive fan of FF (yet) but I think saying it's over rated is something I wouldn't agree with. Everyone I know who has played it loves them and can't speak highly enough of them. A

I don't think I'm in the minority here but I think a lot of gamers nowadays have family or wives/girlfriend that we sit and chat to a bit whilst playing...I know that I'd never get to use a VR because it would totally isolate me from the outside world. Whilst I'm sure some will buy it, I think too many gamers need the ability to interact with both game world, and real world at the same time.

PS. VR demo was awful in my opinion.

Has it been confirmed this doesn't affect trophies? I accidentally put the no encounter one on last night lol

Seriously?! Why?

Well I'm playing anyway at the moment so may as well enter!

@Tasuki Think I've spoken about that on a forum before so apologies...I'll make a note to not do that again!

@DominicanGlory The review is done by one person...this is an internal vote by the guys at PushSquare?

I've never played FF7 so really happy this is coming! Can anyone let me know whether the trophies look missable?

I personally thought it was great and cared about the characters. I clearly differ from the norm though as I think TWD is absolute garbage and one of the most boring games I've ever played.

I thought GOT was paced similarly to the show with some slow plot building and moments of action. One of the things I love about Game of Thrones is that it's not just constant action...

Its a solid 8 for me.

@GamingPenguin People stop moaning about plus?? This will never happen until they get Knack haha

Good article and although I don't 100% agree...it's a good topic for discussions I personally don't know much about the games industry but my possibly naive thoughts are below:
1) People commenting saying don't pre-order games...not sure why this is an issue? If we think a game looks good then we can choose to "reserve" it for a day one purchase. The same way I remember waiting in HMV for a new album to come out (before I read reviews)
2) Do games cost more to make? Should they cost more? Are companies keeping the cost of games lower by adding DLC, MicroT? Without analysing the figures it's difficult to tell
3) I think the real issue is that developers/publishers haven't quite figured out how to market the additional content to us in a way that we are happy with (although will we ever be happy!). Take Destiny for example...would they have been better just having a subscription? Should they have made people aware that their would be ongoing costs?
4) I feel with nearly every game I have that they are GREAT value for money. At a base game of £50, I maybe get between 10 - 200 hours from it.

I suppose without being able to study financials I'll never really know whether they're being greedy or trying to run a profitable business.

This is more exciting news that anything announced in Paris yesterday!!!

@get2sammyb I've made it this far without ever playing an AC game...do you think someone like me will enjoy it who hasn't grown tired of the series?

I actually decided to take a look back at the original launch trailer at E3 and the first gameplay footage as I'd never seen them. The thing that shocked me the most was that a level 4 player, got an exotic engram on his first mission and it was Thunderlord, and his friend, (level 10 I believe) was rocking a Gally!

Haha love the title of the article and love Playstation Access! Will be getting this app for sure and recommending it

It's value probably depends on whether people like the games in the vault. I personally think it's good value...but more importantly I think we should have a choice.

Looks great....but where am I meant to find the time?! Got to about VR2 and haven't touched it for about a month. I have every intention to go back, but whether I will or not I don't know.
