@GagaOooLaLa it's not even that all these sites and media DO disagree with JK Rowling though, anyway.
The numbers don't make sense. If all of games media really is that strong in their views of this then it is not an equally represented view. The opinion of "F* JK Rowling" is quite clearly a minority view overall
The whole thing does not add up, and the game breaking streaming records alone proves that
Would happily pay for a PS5 version fwiw. Absolute waste that it has nothing. Then again the original Red Dead Redemption isn't playable at all on most platforms now
Absolutely crazy that this game is constantly pointed about to be controversial, of ALL the things going on in the world 😂
Crazy times. Game sounds a lot better than I thought. Will probably download Friday as my girlfriend loves HP and it'll be a good game to play together
Surprised to see such positive reaction to this episode. I thought it was pretty dull
I don't think we got to see Bill and Frank develop enough to really care about their final moments. And even then, their final moments were a bit "oh, that's kind of sweet" and that's it.
Only thing I thought was well done was the letter
Still much prefer the Bill and Frank story from the game, and seeing Ellie argue with Bill was hugely missed imo
I still don't understand who signed off on the glossy plate. It quite clearly looks worse than the original controllers which is just weird and, although silly, kind of puts me off from the start
@Loftimus "the only person that outcome would benefit was him" and Ellie, of course. But one of the reasons we never got to have that conversation with her was because the fireflies were so brutal in stealing her away from Joel (in the game at least)
@Loftimus I preferred that there were more questions there though. One of the great things about the first game is that none of it was too far-fetched.
The second game completely threw that out of the window for me and many others and changing the ending to be so certain felt and still feels strange
Just whack them on ignore @GreatAuk. I imagine all these comments will be gone soon but you just can't win with people like this no matter how logical your replies
All depends on context for me but I can definitely see how it could be annoying.
God of War has a lot of talking in general which I quite enjoy. It's slightly annoying when you're just trying to explore a bit and Atreus and Mimir keep questioning you but it makes sense in-game and is done in a humorous way. It also makes them feel much more involved as characters and helps bring the world to life a bit more

@BadPlayerOne that's not what I said or think at all but ok 😂
Re: TV Show Review: The Last of Us (HBO) Episode 8 - Streamlining Hollows Out Iconic Moments
Ever since the second episode I've just felt numb to this whole show.
They're missing what made the game special and the whole thing just seems like a much weaker version of what we already have
Re: Poll: What Did You Think of The Last of Us - Episode 8?
Yeah I'm really not feeling this series.
It's just showing to me how superior the game is in almost every regard
Re: Hidetaka Miyazaki Says Elden Ring's Success Won't Determine What Comes Next
Yeah this is interesting but.. Shadow of the Erdtree!!
Re: Forspoken Ended Up Being 'Nothing Like' Gary Whitta's Original Pitch
Writing in video games in general is terrible, and I'm still not sure why with the budget that is put into games these days.
I haven't seen a great deal of Whitta's work but I'm assuming he would've been more competent than whoever ended up leading this
Re: Cooperative FPS Crime Boss: Rockay City Looking Limp in Lost Candy Trailer
Missed opportunity getting all these names involved and setting a theme like this only to waste it on gameplay like this

Re: Hogwarts Legacy Breaks Livestreaming Record, Tops 1.3 Million Viewers
Great news. Strange how none of the major news sites are reporting on streamers being bullied for playing this though..

Re: Rhythm Game Drums Rock Crashes PSVR2 Launch Lineup
Was gonna say, with good haptic feedback I could see this being really good.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 461
@get2sammyb started so the article so positively and then quickly turned to..
"I'll probably play some gacha games on mobile this weekend, because I've turned into a right scumbag"
😂 I love it
Re: HBO Renews The Last of Us TV Series for a Second Season
Good luck telling season 2.. 🍿

@sanderson72 we need a new Motorstorm, man
Imagine what it could look, feel and sound like on a PS5 😍

@Slippship you know you don't have to read this right?

Re: Special PS5 DualSense Gifted to PlayStation Employees
Looks like it had a disease to me. Cool gesture nonetheless
Re: The Last of Us HBO Pulls in 4.7 Million Viewers, Second Biggest Debut Since 2010
Loved the first episode. Good luck turning Part 2 into a TV series though. I can't see how that works at all without some significant changes
Re: 'AAAA' Title The Callisto Protocol Reportedly Falls Short of Expected Sales Figures
Seems like expectations got way too high for this.
It's an OK game but lacks a truly compelling story, the characters are boring and the gameplay is pretty uninteresting too
Appreciate that game development is difficult but surely they were aware they had a dud here?

Re: Hogwarts Legacy on PS5 Supports 30fps, 60fps, and VRR
🙄 Here we go again
Re: Hogwarts Legacy on PS5 Supports 30fps, 60fps, and VRR
@caiol92 I wish I could go back to feeling like this.
I can barely stand to play games in 30fps mode now and I don't know what happened
Have been playing games for 30 years and played countless games with awful framerates just fine (ish)
Re: Wishing You a Happy New Year from the Push Square Team
Happy New Year, PS!
Re: The Last Guardian, Shadow of the Colossus Legend Aiming for 2023 Announcement
Bring it on! These games are excellent
Re: Game of the Year: #4 - Trails from Zero
Justice for GT7.
As mentioned though, love to see more niche games getting recognition
Re: We Wish You a Merry Christmas
As always, thank you to everyone at Push Square for being the best place to go for PlayStation news and discussion. Here's to another year 🎮
Re: PS5 DualSense Edge Pad Sounds Like the Real Deal, Shorter Battery Life
The real deal wouldn't have terrible battery life, imo

Re: PS5, PS4's 2023 Ridiculous Release Schedule Topples with Peppa Pig Sequel
Do we really need a PS4 version?
Wish the devs would just focus on current-gen so we can get absolutely the best Peppa Pig game possible
Re: Resident Evil Village Is a PSVR2 Launch Game, And It's Free
Wish more of the bigger developers put some effort into VR as well
Re: Rumour: The Last of Us 3 Is In Development at Naughty Dog
🙄 Of course they are
Re: Crime Boss: Rockay City Is a Star-Studded FPS Heist Game Shooting for PS5
Looks great but with a healthy dose of scepticism from me
Re: Earn 100 PS Stars Points Just for Playing PS Plus Games
Thanks for the responses all. Think I'll look into this soon as I already give Sony enough money, its about time they gave a little back 😂
Re: Earn 100 PS Stars Points Just for Playing PS Plus Games
I haven't been paying attention to this Stars thing at all tbh
Think I'm missing out?
Re: Days Gone Director Blames Woke Reviewers, Programmers for Critical Reception
Weird comments.
Days Gone had some great ideas, some standout gameplay features and a decent ish gameplay loop.
It also had a lot of bugs, a somewhat meh story and terrible AI as well as repetitive quests.
The review scores were fine. It would be weird if this was getting 9s and 10s across the board
Re: The Callisto Protocol (PS5) - Just Like Dead Space, for Better and Worse
I haven't played Dead Space so maybe this will be for me?
Re: Sky, Journey's Spiritual Successor, Glides to PS4 Next Week
I feel like we've had a hundred spiritual successors at this point
Journey was great but I don't think this is for me

Re: Development Nearly Complete for Pinnochio-Inspired Soulslike Lies of P
Probably my most anticipated game at this point
Re: The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me (PS5) - One for the Fans Lacks Ambition
One of my biggest frustrations in gaming is Supermassive games and this series in particular.
They have the potential to do special things but keep producing annoyingly average affairs such as this. A shame

Re: New Tales From The Borderlands (PS5) - No Tale, Too Much Borderlands
The original one was great. This definitely sounds nothing like it which is a shame
Re: Google Stadia Exclusive GYLT Likely Getting Ported to PS5, PS4
I played it on Stadia at launch.
I thought it was a solid game without being anything special. Cool that it's not getting left to be nothing
Re: A Plague Tale: Requiem Harnesses the Power of the PS5 to Bring Your Nightmares to Life
@Max_the_German well this is a PlayStation website. It's kind of irrelevant what another console can or can't do
