"With Microsoft’s recent announcement of the Kinect-less Xbox One, it was met with pretty positive praise. Once pegged as an essential piece of the overall hardware, it’s now taking a backseat role in the Xbox One experience.
...[But] When something that is met with split opinions is being forced on the consumer, does that ultimately harm the ultimate goal and potential of the product in question?"
Sony Interactive Entertainment has added a few more titles to the list of games that will be leaving PS Plus in May, 2024.
curious... if a game leaves PS+, does it make it unplayable if you have already claimed it before it leaves? I know on the XB side, games leaving Gamepass are no longer playable. You need to pay for them to be able to continue playing after you installed them from GP.
The 3 monthly “free” games you keep as long as you have PS+ subscription. The PS+ library is like Netflix. They rotate stuff out and replace them with other titles.
Yes, PS+ Extra/Premium games are unplayable after the leave the service, just like GamePass and Netflix.
PS+ Essentials games are available as long as you have an active PS+ account.
Wonder if Horizon ZD leaving gives credit to those remake rumours
Sigh. If true…another remake that’s not Bloodborne.
I still remember them giving that one away for free, regardless of if you were subscribed to Plus or not
They did. It was during the pandemic and the "play at home" initiative.
Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition. Sony gave away a lot of games just to push gamers to stay home and not get infected by COVID.
I think you're right.
There is a separate Bloodborne rumor by the remake is allegedly scheduled for next gen.
Media Molecule director said the studio's next title is more a game & less a creation tool. He also regrets not having a PC version of Dreams.
If there was one PC version that should have existed it’s Dreams
I’m super glad they will be going back to something more traditional gaming wise.
I’m sure they’ll find something creative to implement like Tearaway on vita. What a gem 💎 that thing was!!!
My dream was DreamsVR and creating landscapes, characters, and sculptures using that amazing toolbox in vr, that would have been something imo.
Dreams PC was the dream. Woulda given the game a much needed boost. Here’s hoping they follow it up well.
They probably ran into the same problem they did with the potential of last of us factions....the support needed was just too much to consider expanding to more platforms for a smallish studio.
I use to say this when the game was first releasing, many kept saying it would not be possible, something about the toolsets.
I said this was one game that needed to be on as many platforms as possible, including PC and Xbox just like how Minecraft is everywhere.
Saad from eXputer: "Utilizing its myriad strengths and masterful design, Elden Ring ruined gaming for me in a way I'll always be thankful for."
It sounds like you’re just an eldenring fan and not so much a fan of games by and large. Which theres nothing wrong with.
This just reminds me that Music unlimited is stuck on the frontpage of my PS4, I want it gone.
I agree with the everything but the points on the Wii U gamepad, and never found it that awkward or as annoying as the author suggests. The price of the system is comparable to the rest of the current gen. crop (actually cheaper), but what makes it seem so overpriced was all of the ports that are readily available any number of other places for much cheaper, (and unfortunately for Wii U, not nerfed). I just want to see what Nintendo will show around E3, since they've said they want to highlight the gamepad more. Obviously, it can add something significant, otherwise why did everyone else jump on the second screen band wagon so fast this time?
I kinda liked the Wii U game pad. I mean, at least it was used in some games.
