I won't rule out Lego horizon as need to see more but I've long since got bored of the Lego game formula so would need to see if it deviates enough from it.
Astro bot is day one though (100% play through of play room was done again in Saturday. Pure joy that game)
Now they have started and as it seems sea of thieves sold well on playstation at least it would make sense to port older games over to give them a second wind.
I don't see any new Xbox games coming to ps5 day in date apart from Doom. It would make sense of a minimum 3 to 6month gap between series x release to ps5 for games such as Indiana Jones
I see souls like/lite and it puts me off. Way too many. There are other game genres to make but this seems to be the one that's over saturated over last few years. Shows no signs of stopping either
Think Microsoft have realised that putting all first party games on gamepass isn't profitable or sustainable so the need to put them on rival consoles is best way of making the money back.
Probably too embarrassing to backtrack on day one releases on gamepass now too
Streets of Rage 4 is superb and SpongeBob is a decent little 3D platformer that is worth playing. I'm not a fan of the cartoon but the game was solid on PS4
Finished Stellar Blade last week. Great game. Need a big meaty game like that to get absorbed in.
A few smaller scale/length games will do for now. Just started Planet of Lana this morning. 20 to 30 mins in and it's impressing me. Art style is beautiful.
May also take a shot at crow country as liked the demo
@Decoy_Snake it would seem so. That's also not even taken into account that Sony doesn't have to put it's first party IP on plus day one like Xbox do for gamepass.
So Sony will make loads on plus and then sell more of their own games outright too. Can't imagine Xbox sells as many copies of starfield , hellblade etc now due to people getting them on gamepass
@Kienda the only games on premium that are streaming only are PS3 games. So basically the portal can't play PS3 games from plus but every other game on plus is playable on it because apart from PS3 games all other games can be downloaded
@OptimusPrime1 A very underrated and under apprereciated gem. It's very creative and loads of fun. Mixes things up and the level's that open up after finishing the game are a real challenge
Finished Stellar Blade mid week. For a game that wasn't on my radar until the demo hit it was amazing. It helped me through a very difficult few weeks.
Demos work.
Bought several games lately on back of demo's or trials including Dredge and outcast 2 and those are my games this weekend.
Please please please be accurate. Astro bots playroom is still in my top 5 ps5 games. If Nintendo made it, it would have got more praise and/or attention. It was a masterpiece. If the full fat version can be half as good as that semi skimmed version F**k me were in for a treat
I think they could test the waters when it comes to interest in Resistance by doing a ps5 remaster trilogy. If it sells well it will show a lot of people would be likely to buy a resistance 4.
It just won't be done by insomniac I don't think.
In mean time if we get more Ghost of Tsushima, ratchet, Spiderman, god of war, horizon etc I'll be happy. Only issue is games take so long to make now
About time that the gem that is ratchet and clank got a copy cat. If they can get it even 75% close to the feel of the ratchet and clank we're in for a treat

Downloading forbidden west to give it a 2nd try. While it's downloading bit of sly and night springs dlc for the amazing AW2
Re: Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition Release Seems Imminent on PS5
I would like to give this a go if it's a decent remaster effort. Liked it in 2003 on GameCube but didn't finish it.
It would feel like a breath of fresh air to play now I think
Re: Hands On: They're Rough Around the Edges, But It's Awesome to Have PS2 Games Back on PS5, PS4
I've had a blast on Sly and I think it looks great. Plays superb as well. I'll try Tomb Raider Legend at some point too

Re: Legendary PS2 Platformer Sly Cooper Will Have a Platinum on PS5, PS4
Looking forward to playing this. Loved it on PS3 collection. Wasn't as keen on the others but loved the linear structure of the 1st one

Re: Need Another Soulslike? Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn Attacks PS5 Next Month
@QualityGeezer it seems like it could come true to me. Can't move for ones that have launched in last 18 months and ones due soon
Re: Need Another Soulslike? Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn Attacks PS5 Next Month

Re: Max Caulfield Returns in Life Is Strange: Double Exposure on PS5
@get2sammyb agreed. Graphics look superb too.
I'm curious how they'll tie it back to the first game.
I've loved all games in the series except 2. Couldn't get into that after 3 separate attempts
Re: Max Caulfield Returns in Life Is Strange: Double Exposure on PS5
The trailer looks good. I'm looking forward to this one
Re: DOOM: The Dark Ages Rips and Tears Day One on PS5
Great news. Looks brilliant too
Re: Horror Hit Alan Wake 2 Is Getting a Retail PS5 Release Because You Wouldn't Shut Up About It
No excuses now guys. Buy this amazing game.
I have no regrets buying it digitally but given choice at time likely would have bought physical version

Re: There's a Damn Good Reason to Buy Astro Bot Physically on PS5
@daveofduncan if it's a decent length and has replay value I'm happy enough with a higher price
Re: Halo 1 Remaster Being Considered for PS5, New Report Claims
@Rmg0731 my mate told me it's superb. I wouldn't mind giving it a blast
Re: There's a Damn Good Reason to Buy Astro Bot Physically on PS5
Any indication of the RRP yet? I'm hoping £39.99 but reckon could be £49.99 or higher. I'll be buying it anyway

Re: Halo 1 Remaster Being Considered for PS5, New Report Claims
Played combat evolved a few times. It's infinite I want
Re: Yooka-Laylee Remaster Confirmed as Yooka-Replaylee, PS5 Version Likely
I found the levels too big and barren in the original. Can't see this being fixed for it so may have to pass
Re: Talking Point: What Are Your PS5 Predictions for Summer Game Fest 2024?
Id love a new Bio-Shock to be announced and coming very soon. It's more likely to be announced sometime soon but be a late 2025 game.
Re: Alan Wake 2's PS5 Night Springs Expansion Appears Locked for Summer Game Fest
About time. I got the season pass so I've been waiting patiently for this
Re: PS5 Packaging No Longer Mentions 8K, Some Fans Accuse Sony of False Advertising
@GeeForce maybe re-read my full comment hey?
Re: PS5 Packaging No Longer Mentions 8K, Some Fans Accuse Sony of False Advertising
More entitled pri*ks complaining. Most likely complaining about a feature they will never use.
Pretty sure the tourist runs at 8k so if that's accurate it's not false advertising

Re: Hogwarts Legacy PS5, PS4 Summer Update Detailed in New Video

Re: 3 New PS Plus Essential Games Are Available to Download Now on PS5, PS4

Re: Ubisoft Calls in Second Studio for Prince of Persia: Sands of Time Remake
I had this pre-ordered on PS4 before it's first delay. My pre-order was cancelled by simply games. Think they should just give up now
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 531
@Jimmer-jammer yeah stellar blade was longer than I expected but don't feel it out stays it's welcome.
I've been playing planet of lana today. Love a decent cinematic platformer
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 531
@Zemo55 they got 3 likes so that's definitely not true.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? - Issue 531

Re: Poll: What Was Your Favourite Game from State of Play?
Astro Bot by far. So happy it's only 3 months away. Day one purchase for me
Re: Round Up: What Was Announced During Sony's State of Play Livestream for May 2024?
All I wanted was Astro Bot and was expecting that in November so to get it 2 months earlier is brilliant news
Re: PS Plus' Higher-Priced Extra, Premium Tiers Command 35% of Overall Subs
@Decoy_Snake it would seem so. That's also not even taken into account that Sony doesn't have to put it's first party IP on plus day one like Xbox do for gamepass.
So Sony will make loads on plus and then sell more of their own games outright too. Can't imagine Xbox sells as many copies of starfield , hellblade etc now due to people getting them on gamepass
Re: PS5's Streaming Handheld PS Portal Is Proving a Huge Hit

Re: Soapbox: Once a PS4 Console Exclusive, PS5 Players Are Missing a Visual Stunner in Hellblade 2
It'll come to ps5 I think. Looks awesome so really hope it does
Re: Poll: Are You Happy with Your PS Plus Extra, Premium Games for May 2024?
The selection isn't great but the issue is it's less than half the amount that has been taken off
Re: Best God of War Games
Ascension is the only one I didn't actually finish. It felt off.
The PSP games deserve so much credit for looking and playing amazing on a handheld.
My favourite is 2018 but got a soft spot for the original trilogy. Amazing series
Re: Summer Game Fest Hosts New Game Reveal from One of 2K's 'Biggest and Most Beloved Franchises'
Would really love a new bioshock game. Love all 3 of the bioshock games
Re: Physical Version of Assassin's Creed Shadows Needs Online Connection for Installation

Re: Poll: Years Later, How Do You Feel About PlayStation's PC Strategy?
I think the strategy as it is at the moment is good.
It gives it's a IP a 2nd chance to find more players after it's maybe tapped out it's potential to sell more on console.
I wouldn't mind them maybe adding the same game to plus when it comes to PC in future if the idea is it's sold enough on PS4 and 5
