Re: Talking Point: Is a PlayStation Showcase Really Happening This Year?

I still think they're missing a bit of a trick when it comes to marketing.

In many ways PlayStation as a brand is far bigger than E3 ever was.

I feel like they should create some kind of PlayStation Week and have their own showcase during it.

It could be used to celebrate the games/hardware of the last 12 months and obviously to promote the future

TLOU1 feels like a "cash grab" to me and I was disappointed in Part 2 but that said I'm kind of getting excited for the remake/remaster.

I want another reason to play Part 2, and some of the new accessibility and difficulty settings sound ideal for me.

I loved that you could tweak certain elements in the sequel and even things like the slow motion made for some really cool gameplay.

Re: Reaction: PS Plus, PS Now's Makeover a Necessary and Positive Step for Sony

It's the right thing to do to combine PS+ and Now but the whole thing seems a bit underwhelming, if expected.

I don't know why people are wondering what the lineup of games will be. I imagine it'll be almost identical to what's currently on PS Now with the addition of what's been announced from the "new" PS5 games. Potentially with the addition of "classics" added intermittently too. These will be added on a monthly basis as per.

Meanwhile the quality of the "free games" given on "essential" will drop to Xbox Live Gold levels of mediocrity

Re: Poll: Will You Subscribe to Sony's New PS Plus Tiers?

Hmm. I wonder how it will work if you just want to upgrade your sub for a month or two, but already have say a year of "essential".

Sony don't have a great track record of making things like that easy so I'm curious if they'll get this right

Re: Best GTA Games

@Uncharted2007 not only that but in the wrong order too 😂

Worth remembering that it's done on the user ratings though, perhaps reflecting how we've all felt paying for effectively the same game over and over.

Re: PS5, PS4's Revamped PS Plus Sub Allegedly Outlined in Report

I think the only way this will be seen as good value is if they add pretty much all the main PS4 exclusives & a healthy selection of now year old PS5 titles.

I don't really see the need for there to be such a radical change anyway tbh. All I think they need to do is improve the PS Now lineup and bundle it together as an option with PS+.
