My wife fortunately bought me a PS5. I've played the awesome Astrobot and have nothing else to play. Not into souls games, not my cup of tea and Ratchet and Clank is probably my least favourite ongoing franchise - I dislike the humour and gameplay. I'm here for new experiences like Resogun, infamous SS, the Order and Driveclub - which we got year 1 with PS4! Also exciting ongoing news like P5, uncharted 4 and MGS.
The current PS4 games are obviously great but I don't understand the desperation to own a 5 when it's the exact same experience as a PS4 pro bar Astrobot and dark souls. I'm very disappointed with this introductory salvo, and should have waited.
That said TLOU 2, Dreams and Ghost of Tsushima launched last year so I will give Sony a bye for now. Hopefully in 12 months time the future games from all parties will become clear.
@rpg2000 here here. Although I would like the show 21 ROFL. I play anything and everything but it seems to me the PushSquare crowd want 3rd person games and that's it - I like them too but we all need a bit of variety.
@ThePizzaMule Ok so thanks for saying my comment was BS. I've had a multitude of months were I already have the games. I already have squadrons as an example.
We are getting 2 brand new games and it's all bad news? You haven't tried either of them - so at the very least you get a new experience.
@ViolentEntity Would they though? Or would they respin positive marketing towards safe online gaming?
One thing that's often overlooked. I have PSPlus for 6 years, and about 150 games. Working out at £1.80 per game. Even if VF5 remake isn't the bee's knees it's still well worth £1.80.
I'm completely lost with people's opinions. VF5 remake is a must play, squadrons which I've just bought is good and operation tango looks interesting.
36% of people are saying it's poor or straight bad. Hating this attitude and although everyone has a right of an opinion, I can forsee free games being scrapped on plus as it's all negative. Then everyone will be forced onto a £15 a month sub for now and internet access.
@Mysterio dogfight, or dog fight, is an aerial battle between fighter aircraft conducted at close range. Dogfighting first occurred in Mexico in 1913, shortly after the invention of the airplane. Until at least 1992, it was a component in every major war, despite beliefs after World War II that increasingly greater speeds and longer-range weapons would make dogfighting obsolete.
@AgentGuapo @NemesisSam30 I can cut corners but my memory isn't great, I've done everything thus far on my Todd to 277 as it stands now! But yeah my memory I always forget the sequence. Hopefully sometime soon I will get the gold!
@render I finally cracked 275 orbs to unlock the finale. It's not so bad truth be told. As for the knitted knights last trial, it's the worst thing ever. Dark Souls is way easier.
Wreckfest gives a terrible introduction, kind of like seeing you future wife for the first time in a club with sick all over her dress. As you progress the tracks and cars get better and better.
@Jimmer-jammer wealth isn't evil per say. But when Tramps line the streets and kids go hungry then capitalism doesn't work for everyone. I work in marketing and can and do spin stuff to make money. £70 is too much. Especially during a pandemic and gaming is a big part of all our culture's. (Although you can find the games cheaper generally)
Why are people up in here saying price increased are okay? Surely that's self defeating unless you work for the company hiking prices. That's my take anyway. When my local pub increase prices I don't cheer the landlord I ask why.
@get2sammyb it's actually the polar opposite from needing to be clever.
it's like gambling machines in pubs. idiots from the bottom classes in school throw all their dole money in as they know how to beat the system (yeah right). Sensible people don't pay them any attention.
It's designed for the idiots in school. We can all see it stupid from the get go. We don't want to learn this mundane process. They will.
@Jayofmaya so you can import audio and attach attach it to keys in the piano roll. So in the track above both the club piano sound and Detroit house organ are imported and then written in a sequencer. They aren't samples like the vocals which are by my friend Prince Tahra.
With each instrument you have a tweak file which covers 9 main types of tweak, with an unlimited amount of options thereafter. It's so underrated.
@GamingFan4Lyf yes it can, my friend made a music video to my song midnight creators (go check it out it was highlighted by MM a few weeks ago). He made that on the the PS5. But when I noticed a few bugs I went into edit mode and the whole thing was like ! ! ! As the PS4 couldn't handle it. So we had to downscale it somewhat, it's still boss though.
@SoulChimera @HUMPERDOO stick with it! You can make it happen. Here's something I made and I'm about as art literate as the dude who sticks pencils into his eyes in school;
I tried GT online and the drivers are just better than me. No idea how you can make up the gap. Will stick to driving my Yaris like an old lady, which is an unfair comparison as old ladies would probably beat me to.
@lordzand I get that, but Sony did just hand us 8 games for free. You have to include them in the conversation.
I have already played Days Gone and didn't particularly care for it. You have got more games than me this month 🤣
But what I do have is Zombie Army, Rez, paper beasts and a massive backlog of psplus games. It's not the end of the world.
Sony changed when Kodera took over for the worse in a multitude of ways, however I can't berate them recently as it's been pretty great. As you said narratives can be altered, it's not a narrative if I really do think it's been pretty awesome. Now go and play The Witness.
@lordzand I never said the ps plus were free. I said the free games were free. Which they were. The best of PS4 games are an aside to your ps plus subscription on PS5, they could be classed as free or an added bonus as us mere PS4 owners don't have that access.
I understand your point and in the past (around 2 years ago) I had 6 months of games I already had. That was frustrating and I wasn't getting value from my subscription. But when Sony have doled out a number of good months and more recently The Witness (amazing) Astrobot (amazing) and Rez (very good) I don't understand the flak. You have Oddworld which looks great too.
@lordzand Sorry this is nonesense. Sony have given away Rez, Astrobot and The Witness. 3 of the best games ever and you say they are a door prize?
Then they offer out the new oddworld game and an additional 8/10 game as reviewed by PS in Zombie Army and it's all bad news?
Yes if games are duplicated it's unfair to a degree but let's take the whole situation into consideration. You have 2 PS5 games to play which is the historical standard set on PS4 once the IGC was scrapped. And 8 other games for free. And you already got Days Gone for nothing!
Civ 6 is massively overrated. It not fun and building up your Legion takes way too long. Tried it 4 times so far and every time it takes a lot longer to spread your area than in civs 2,3 and 4. Waging an early war is suicide and it's not rewarding. The controls on console are adequate without blowing you away.
This is a PushSquare crew dream come true. Proper awesome niche games which are all mega. Bravo Sony, I did want a break from gaming but REZ I'm coming for you baby!
@Subsided it doesn't matter. Sony have picked up a ton of talent on the back of Dreams. Some of the projects started on Dreams will go on to become release games. My friend is now an animator as an example and another one of my mates has gone on to work for MM themselves.
Dreams flopping* is grim but it's high brow and opaque. If you have the skills they can literally pay the bills.
@naruball I remember when games cost a tenner, you got loads of free games with magazines and there was about 15 footy games released every year. We can all use examples to support dodgy business tactics but I prefer to condone a multi billion dollar company for gambling in games who's stock holders are rich beyond our imagination.
@Marquez Bethesda have their own fans. For me HZD and Dreams are way ahead than any of Bethesda's output. But to my gaming mate he loves Skyrim and Fallout, so this is a big big loss for PS gamers. He will switch in a heartbeat.
@HotGoomba Underrated comment and a great idea. Have the PS as a main alongside a suitable system for streaming from X cloud. Heck we've all been using windows on PC for years.
I'm a part time sound engineer thanks to Dreams giving me the confidence again. So yeah I think it's amazing. About to release my latest track on Dreams which is good enough for the radio, with a huge build up and then banging house hits and vocals.
I can't believe there are still people who haven't gave it a go. You have no right to complain about games full stop if you haven't paid the paltry entrance fee to the best tool for expression on console.
