Re: Elden Ring Fans Think That News Could Finally Be Near

rpg2000

@StonyKL doubtful.... they already stated that it was coming to PS4, Xbox, and PC since the very beginning.... changing it right now would just cause a big backlash for the developer and publisher. FromSoftware and Bandai Namco Entertainment do not want that to become a thing right now.

Re: God of War Ragnarok Will Release 'When It's Done' on PS5

rpg2000

@Jayslow we get it, you didn't believe it wasn't coming in 2021, good for you. You can move on now... There is no need to cry and get upset about a possible delay because they put a 2021 on a splash screen last year.

Maybe they (Santa Monica and Sony) thought 2021 was going to be better (in terms of the pandemic), but now that doesn't seem to be the case (it is getting better, but slower as they expected).

At the end of the day, only an annoying small vocal portion of gamers make delays of games to be a big deal. This game will sell regardless when it comes out, especially if it is good and polished like the previous one.

Re: Soapbox: The Real Problem with Sony's State of Play Livestreams

rpg2000

You guys complain way too much about these small presentations (be it Nintendo, PS, or MS)....it gets tiresome.

You complain when there isn't a State of Play. You complain when there is one (because it didn't match your expectations in terms of announcements).

Let it rest and move on. This State of Play did its job. It updated users about some of the upcoming games for this year, simple as that.

Re: Reaction: Japan Studio's Disbandment Is Disappointing, But Not Surprising

rpg2000

@get2sammyb don't listen to him.... you can clearly see he is just saying a bunch of nonsense to the point of laughable (which is sad really)....

The output of Japan Studio producing successful games in Japan and the West (that weren't collaborations) hasn't being great for the past decade (or more), so this was going to happen sooner or later... Team ASOBI's Astro Bot was the only bright spot of that studio in the past years (which they are, for matter fact, keeping).

@AdamNovice True.... probably most of the users that frequent this site never support their actual new IPs on release date (like Puppeteer and Gravity Rush). They probably bought them dirt cheap after years of their initial releases.

Re: Gran Turismo 7 Delayed to 2022 on PS5 Due to Coronavirus

rpg2000

@Ken_Kaniff you will be delusional if you don't think that plays a big role on this.

I honestly doubt you know how hard it for developers (as well others) to work on things (in this case video games) from their homes. The stress is bigger than before and if delaying a game helps that... I'm all for it.

Re: Soapbox: There's a Nintendo Direct Today, But I Wish We Had a State of Play to Look Forward To

rpg2000

They will show new games (announce new things) when it is time....

The worst thing they can do is rushed their studios to show something for the sake of some fans (or show games that are 2-3 years away from being release). I'm pretty sure everyone working on those studios are glad they aren't doing that (less stress, the better).

If a studio is ready to show something, then show it, if not... wait until they are ready.

Like always, some fans will cry about the lack of constant news/updates, but at the end of the day, it does not matter.... some might think it does, but in reality it doesn't....

Re: Horizon Forbidden West on PS5, PS4 Is 'More of the Things People Loved About Zero Dawn'

rpg2000

@Tchunga there is no need to go to back to the drawing board. They just need to improve on what they have there and, maybe, create some new interesting gameplay mechanics. The 1st game was a huge success so it makes zero sense to start again from zero, especially when this is just the 2nd game.

If you are going to go back to the drawing board, then just make a new game instead.

Re: Control Fans Bemused by Free PS Plus Version for PS5, PS4

rpg2000

@deathaxe @Kienda You can claim the PS Plus games thru the website as well. I have done it plenty of times. It is quite easy to be honest.

1) Go to the PlayStation Store (https://store.playstation.com) > Log-in with account info > Click "Services" tab > "PS Plus" tab

2) Click "This month on PlayStation Plus" tab > scroll down and look for the game you want to download > click "Download now" (below you will see a disclaimer that says "Don't own a PS5 yet? Add game to your game library and it'll be saved for as long as you're a PS Plus member")

3) Click "Add to Library" tab > after clicking, tab should automatically change to a "Download from Library" tab

4) Click "Download from Library" tab > Look for the game in your "Purchased" tab and/or under your "PS Plus" tab and click on the version you want to start downloading (it downloads directly into your system once you log-in). If you don't have a PS5, you will still see the game there (as claimed), but won't you get the option to download until you get a PS5.

Re: All PS5 Apps

rpg2000

@theheadofabroom HBO Max was added today.... I think this article should do a better job highlighting what has been updated.

Re: Feature: Best PS5, PS4 Music of November 2020

rpg2000

Demon's Soul Remake music was good unless of course you are one of those annoying as heck game purists (any changes are deem as bad and/or a downgrade). You guys don't want a remake , what you want is a remaster... same game with upgraded textures and frame.

P.S. A purist gamer reminds me of purist manga reader... adaptations are good, only if they follow the source material panel by panel (1:1).

Re: Rocket League Won't Get Meaningful Upgrades on PS5, Unlike Xbox Series X

rpg2000

@GKO900 The whole loading thing being "slower" only applies to BC games (especially for BC games that aren't fully optimize). That doesn't apply PS5 games (exclusives, multi-platform), and/or optimized PS4 games. Also, PS5 SDD still have the big advantage over the Xbox series X SDD. If you don't want to believe that that's another story.

By the way, they never stated/claimed that all (or most) BC games were going be fully optimized (take full advantage of the console's SDD) and therefore load faster. What they claimed was that the load times of the PS5 games were going to be extremely fast, which they are.

Re: DIRT 5 Finally Confirmed for PS5 Launch, Full DualSense Support

rpg2000

@Mega-Gazz XSX handles that mode well because lots of things in the game were turned off and/or lowered (effects, crowd/environment density, resolution, etc etc). Otherwise it would have been closed to impossible for the XSX to achieve a stable 120fps framerate throughout all the game. The PS5 version will be basically the same.

@Qanonbudah yea, because the users in this comment section represent every PS owner out there. You're reaching... Also, most of the trashing usually comes from extreme fanboys (be it from one platform or the other).

Re: PS5's Fan Will Be Adjusted with Firmware Updates

rpg2000

@Insightful users like you are annoying as heck... leading the way where? raw power?... At the end of the day, games will do the talking, not the console specs (or internal cooling solution).

So far the "more powerful" console hasn't really showed me anything worth of being called that.

Right now the most next-gen titles I have seem are Demon's Souls Remake (launch title, 2020) and Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart (launch window, 2021), both games coming to the PS5 and not to the "most powerful" console.

Re: Fans Are Trying to Figure Out if PS5 Has Quick Resume

rpg2000

@Daleaf The vast majority of users out there do not really need to have 12 (or even 6) games on technical pause at the same time; that's just overkill. For most of them, this is a pointless feature.

This is also one of those new features people are talking right now, but after 6 months (maybe even less), the majority of them will not even care it exists (or forget that it is even there to use).

Re: UK Sales Charts: FIFA 21 Physical Sales Suffer Unsurprising Decline

rpg2000

@edulanza10 believe all you want, the game still sold extremely well, so deal with it... The fact that you whine every-time that game is mentioned is just annoying... We know you didn't like it, just move on with your life for god's sake.

@zupertramp No, they are not (even less during the time that game was released)... He just forgot about that because why not, as long as he can keep with the narrative that the game is tanking is all good for him... Also, just because the local best buy store (location unknown) of his friend didn't sold the game (a claim we can't actual verified as true or not), doesn't mean it was the same for the other local best buy stores out there.

Re: The Pathless Ruled Out as PS5's First Free PS Plus Game

rpg2000

Why the hell would The Pathless be on PS Plus the day it releases? Are we know expecting any of the indies showcased during the first PS5 event to there day one?

Yea, let's hope Little Devil Inside is a PS Plus too the day it releases... /s

I can see some of them coming to the PS Plus in the future though, not release date. That's more realistic to me.

Re: Soapbox: The Week After PS5's Showcase, Sony Told Us Nothing About Its Next-Gen Console

rpg2000

Articles like this are getting tiresome... This site getting tiresome... For god's sake Tokyo Games Show still happening today and you guys haven't wrote of any of the games coming to the PS4 and PS5 yet (pathetic)...

For example, where is the news that Psikyo Shooting Collection Game Bundle is getting a PS5 release? Where is the article about that?

Also Where is the news about the compression solution that the PS5 is using (Oodle Texture compression techniques)? RAD Game Tools just wrote a blog about it and it is really interesting. If it wasn't for Playstationlifestyle.net I would have never know... Frankly, I get better and more value information from that site, than this... and with much less whining.

Stop with the Soapbox BS and cover the news...

Re: The Internet Thinks Microsoft Will Buy SEGA Next

rpg2000

This is moronic.... MS just spent $7.5 billion, so I doubt they are spending more money on the Xbox division anytime soon... Again, this is just moronic.

Also, stop buying big publishers for god's sake... either build your own studios from zero or buy small ones and nature them into greatness...

Re: Horizon Forbidden West Built from the 'Ground Up' for PS5

rpg2000

At the end of the day, as long it is a good game like the previous one, I'm fine with it. Plus having it also in the PS4 will guarantee the game to sell way more, which at the same time will guarantee us another sequel (that's the reality for games this big; low sells means doom). By the time Horizon 3 releases, it will PS5 exclusive.

Also, the PS5 version will obviously will be the definitive edition: run better, look better, feel better, etc... so I will get that one instead.

Re: PS5 Showcase Event Confirmed for This Wednesday

rpg2000

Nice. Looking forward to this event and the one at PAX.

Also, of course they aren't going to explicit say that they are going to be revealing the per-order date and prices in that event. This is just a blog announcement for an event, not a breakdown announcement of every little thing that's going to be in there... Honestly, I can't wait for them to get that information out of the way so the Internet can stop whining about it and focus again on what's really important: the games.

Re: Kena: Bridge of Spirits Delayed to Early 2021 on PS5, PS4

rpg2000

This is a good move also.... Too many high-profile games coming during this Fall season (all eyes will be on them). Releasing it during that season might have been actually bad for this game (financially speaking).

Take your time. Better to release the game next year (Q1).
