I agree that the Prison City setting as pretty much the only setting likely brought down the score - esp in comparison to Ys VIII. Gameplay is still king and that's most important. Bought the game and can't wait to jump in...(after I finish the second half of Ys Seven on VITA)
P5S western release date I'd love for them to remake Persona 1 from the ground up. Or just flash a logo / visual for Persona 6 so we can see the color scheme (maybe green?)
single player games/experiences are wonderful. new experiences, new stories, new characters to get to know and new worlds to explore. multiplayer focused games have its place but nothing is as immersive as a single player focused action - adventure/RPG/JRPG/story driven/open world game.
all the extra stuff makes me want to play it again , but with what time?! DQXI (base game) took me months to play through and finish - all the way to the true ending - highly recommended game if you're a JRPG fan.
@Ralizah most anticipated games for me, along with Tales of Arise, DQ Adventures of Dai, Granblue Fantasy (and whenever the heck BioMutant comes out) - you got good taste!
Cool! I just platinumed Spider Man PS4 (going through the DLC now) - should I just go ahead and buy Miles Morales PS4 and keep going? I'm afraid of burning out on Spider-Man...OR wait til I buy a PS5 (probably in a year or two) and play it then?
this looks great! i'm torn between buying the PS4 version or waiting til i get a PS5 for that version. i just beat Spider-Man PS4 like 2 days ago and going through the DLC now. i'm kinda interested to see where the story takes Miles etc. i'm afraid if i wait til the PS5 version that i'm gonna be like, wait what happened? anyway, Insomniac/Sony/Marvel is knocking it out of the park with this franchise.
this actually looks pretty fun! a little Burnout, mixed in with some Twisted Metal. i appreciate that you're not just a lame duck when you are on foot and that you have some power to try and steal back a vehicle. i hope there's some single player aspect - if it does, then this will be a great "side" game to play / or that game you play to take a break from your "main" game.
Good. I'm glad. With the state of the world, it's best if we not entice people to just rush to the stores for the hottest new thing. Besides, we buy everything online now anyway.
P5S Tales of Arise Ys IX Monstrum Nox Granblue Fantasy Relink (and BioMutant) are my most anticipated games of 2021. I hope and quite positive that P5S is gonna happen for the West eventually. Still gonna be rockin' my PS4 for a while.
Marvel should've given a company like Koei Tecmo/Omega Force the license for this game and make a Marvel Comics version of a Musou game - continue to support it with new content like new characters and story events plus other cosmetic dlc.
i liked all of it. i don't play multiplayer games much so those features won't get alot of use from me. however, the rest of the UI looks awesome! i like the progress/hints as well as the estimated time. as a dad that can only really play late at night, i can better budget my time knowing ahead of time of how much i need to spend doing something in a game (particularly in JRPGs and in 3rd person action/story driven games).
calling it "cards" is appropriate too. i thought it was a good naming convention.
also for the partners/family members who don't play video games but will use the PS5 for watching tv/movies, having a separate media page is a good idea.
I stopped watching after he took off the faceplates. I get all nervous when folks dismantle stuff that are valuable in my eyes (like a video game console in this instance). I'm like ahhh don't break it! Cool video nonetheless.
@djlard - I agree. I don't want any multiplayer anything in HZD. just something I noticed and I'm surprised wasn't brought up. But hey, it's just a mock up so it can mean something or totally nothing at all.
Patience is a virtue. I know as an ardent PS fan (doesn't mean I hate XBox) that whatever Sony does will be a spectacle and it'll be something I'll enjoy. They'll have games and just something interesting to show that we may not expect. I'm also not clamoring for price and date 'cuz the PS4 is still rolling along beautifully. I also don't need to stress on something I don't have control over...makes me look thirsty and desperate.
I mean...Jin isn't wrong. We should relax and reflect...or play your backlog of PS4 games 'cuz we all have so many games left to play in this generation : )
Sticking with the PS5 digital edition. Price is cool for MS and for more casual players and probably trying to appeal to the European market as well. Either way, gonna stay on with the PS family.
Forgot about this game! Looks like GodFall (or GodFall looks like this).
I hope it's a single player type game and not another online games as a service multiplayer blah blah blah.
Especially since Square Enix already has Marvel's Avenger's in that space.
I'm down to download SF V - if there's more content, such as "story mode" then great!
I could care less for PUBG.
Overall, not a great month, but * shrugs * . I generally prefer single player games so yeah.
I didn't think that was going to be a connection, and quite a connection that is. I've only seen gameplay from Sunset Overdrive but yeah, sure that'd be a fun addition to the already robust PS4 library of games. I'm down.
Great! I loved it. Beat it during my first playthrough with Duran, Angela and Hawkeye. My second playthrough (currently) is Kevin, Charlotte and Reisz.

Re: Destruction AllStars PS5 Gameplay Finally Shown in Brand New Trailer
this actually looks pretty fun! a little Burnout, mixed in with some Twisted Metal. i appreciate that you're not just a lame duck when you are on foot and that you have some power to try and steal back a vehicle.
i hope there's some single player aspect - if it does, then this will be a great "side" game to play / or that game you play to take a break from your "main" game.
