Even if horizon was just about robot dinosaurs, which it isn't, then Guerrilla don't hold the copyright for that so it's fair game. It's like saying PES is a FIFA rip off.

Remember when playstation was For The Players...? Now it's just For The Buyers. Now they just want more ways to push ***** onto you, and this new welcome hub is the perfect example - an update that nobody asked for, containing crap that you don't need.
I've cleared most of it off. With the exception of the Store card, everything else that remains is easily accessible from the hotbar. Seems like a waste of time and processing power. Another shining example of how far off the mark Sony are.
Just cancelled my ps plus. Been on premium since day one. It's a complete waste of money. Dead island 2 I already own, bought it day one. Siren I played on PS3, none of the rest interest me. Game trials are a joke. If you only play Fortnite online then you need to cancel psplus. You can play Fortnite without it and not only is it a waste of money, it's borderline predatory. The same with all this ps5 pro shiz... "You no-longer have to choose between performance or fidelity..." Please. Sorry Mr Cerny, I am done with your *****.
I can see why this might sting a bit for some people, there's some damn good games in this list. However for me the simple fact is I'd already bought all the games I was interested in long before they were added on plus, including all the final fantasy games, horizon and KoA... And the sting of seeing a game like Horizon zero dawn leave psplus stings a lot less than the sting of seeing forbidden west added to the service less than 3 months after I dropped £100 on the pre-order.
I can see how this all fits in with Jim Ryan's narrative that they want to focus more on live service and making games available multi platform but it doesn't do anything to shatter the argument that psplus is, at its core, fundamentally broken.
Watched it this afternoon. Little bit disappointed to be honest. Felt like it should have released at least two years ago. Interesting to see how big boss himself works though - a Hideo Kojima production means exactly that. Not as long as I was expecting either, only one hour as opposed to the 90 minutes that was originally stated. I'll probably watch it again though at some point, if only just to watch Guillermo and Norman gush.
I think there's more to it than the three binary choices on offer in this poll. And ultimately I feel that if Sony were to start sharing this kind of info then it would only lead to wider discussion around privacy and exactly what kind of info they gather and how often.
A more important question might be whether or not sony/playstation will survive the next console generation. With the ps5 being largely viewed as a failure and, apparently, being written off in favour of the ps6, nobody can argue that the best games of this generation haven't been the remakes/remasters. It feels like there's not been a brand new, decent IP for ages and I think that if Sony does indeed plan to use GTAVI as a launchpad for the ps6 then I believe, eventually, they're in for a shock.
Just cancelled my preorder and got it refunded. Don't understand how it can make any sense to anyone. 100% Jim Ryan level incompetence and I'm 100% not supporting it. Vote with your wallets. If you allow stuff like this to happen then all you're doing is setting the standard for releases moving forward. This is probably why there's been so little hype and publicity around this remaster.
Like I'm not being funny but there's probably gonna be no difference between the ps4 version and the ps5 version so why would they even bother listing it as a ps5 game?
I didn't even know there was a ps4 version until I read this article.
What the actual f.
Everyone at Aspyr is gonna blame Sony, and everyone at Sony is gonna blame push square for breaking the news before the game released, but the reality is that unless we as consumers stop accepting this level of ***** then it's just gonna keep happening.
I reckon £22.50's probably about a fair price for these three. Great games, updated controls. At least you're getting a half-assed remaster for that price instead of paying full whack for a basic port. Here's looking at you MGS collection and RDR. I'd much rather they remade them completely but I'll take it as it is and I'll enjoy replaying them. Fingers crossed the trophies won't be garbage - 200 trophies sounds padded as...
Sidebar - The Last Revelation is hands down the best TR game and absolutely deserves a full blown remake.
Dead island definitive collection is incorrect. Dead island definitive edition is on ps plus classics, but only the one game. The definitive collection containing dead island definitive edition and dead island riptide definitive edition is not available via ps plus.
Are we all playing the same game here? 2.0 and 2.01 each brought their own sets of bugs and other issues. Yes the game is playable now but it's still far from great. The police AI might as well not be there, the vehicle combat is diabolical, there's very little in the form of in game weather and other in game ambiance. And all this talk of sales figures at a time when cdpr staff are unionising in the wake of yet more layoffs. Cdpr should absolutely not be commended for their actions and or efforts. They needed a smash hit dlc in order to make this game viable, and fortunately they appear to have pulled it off, thanks in no small part to securing Idris Elba. But let's not forget that the dlc itself came with a review embargo that meant reviewers could only show cdpr stock footage if they wanted to talk about the dlc pre-release and we're strictly forbidden from saying anything negative about it. I don't care who you are, this kind of attitude towards reviewers and the gaming public cannot and should not be tolerated.
The actual nail in the coffin for me though was the read dead redemption re-release. Why am I gonna pay £40 for exactly the same game that I didn't pay £40 for 13 years ago. But it's not exactly the same game cos the original had Multiplayer. Something has to change.
I've been on premium since day one and I absolutely regret every second of it. I don't play online, I don't play Multiplayer, none of the games in the classics catalogue are actual classics. The game trials are complete bs. All the best games on extra are games that I paid full price for to play on day one. My subscription ends on October 9th, auto renew is turn off. If I can't justify what I'm currently paying then why am I gonna blindly agree to pay more. Sorry Jim, enjoy your time at the top, you're not getting another penny of my money.
I wanna know why Jersey Devil still isn't on ps+. I don't care what anybody says, Jersey Devil was an ace game and completely deserves a full remaster.
Indeed there can be only one and it has to be Cecil Harvey. The original warrior of light, who gave meaning to the name and really lay the foundations for all who came after him.
Plus...
Cloud - Literally a clone Squall - Emo kid Zidane - I'd pick Vivi over Zidane any day. Tidus - Brat Vaan - Lol, bless... Lightning - took the name from Cecil Noctis - I've seen more personality on a leaf Clive - Swearing doesn't make you cool.
Everybody gushing about this as though 90% of these games don't belong in the ps classics collection. I know £50 isn't a lot of money nowadays but when you've bought all these games previously and been unable to play them due to hardware limitations... And with the snake eater remake being around the corner too... As much as I'm dying for another injection of metal gear I won't be buying this. It's a cash grab. Pure and simple. Sorry.

Re: Horizon Rip-Off Light of Motiram Will Actually Come to PS5
I've never known a character better at mansplaining than Aloy so it'll be better than horizon just for not having that ginger bint present.

That's actually really cheeky... slapping a £7.99 pre order on a game that's being sold as F2P.
It's either F2P or it's not.

Re: Kojima: Your Mother Won't Be Able to Tell the Difference Between PHYSINT and a Movie
Basically it's MGS4 but with less gameplay and more cutscenes. Also Hayter snake vs Kiefer snake, round 2.
