im in trouble please recommend this message!

MrDead4122d ago (Edited 4122d ago )

Be wary of trap ahead!... please recommend this message!

Looks like the disagreers aren't Demon's Souls players

brish4122d ago

"Praise the sun!"

Wrong game! ... oh who am I kidding, Dark Souls could never be considered a wrong game in any context!

MAJ0R4122d ago

So are the servers going back online then?

Nevers4122d ago

As far as I know they never went off. Atlus kept them going for us... at least for NA.

Blacktric4121d ago (Edited 4121d ago )

"at least for NA."

That's the only region they are in charge of anyway. Namco Bandai is in charge of European servers (which won't go offline for at least another year after NA servers go down due to late European release) and Sony Japan is in charge of Japanese region servers. So you can get any other two versions and keep playing online. Although there isn't much activity going in European servers as far as I know.

Nevers4121d ago

Nice to know they are keeping it active. Good on ya for those specifics. That's really cool cuz I want to try out the MP now that I've finally platinum'd it (which essentially led me to playing offline a majority of the time.)

MAJ0R4120d ago

Are you serious? I was in the belief that they were gone a LONG time ago... I remember an article saying they were going down May 31, just researched now and it seems I missed this article.

Irishguy954122d ago

That was changed, they never went off. They were supposed to and then didn't for some reason

Flandy4122d ago

I hadn't noticed he replied to my comment :D
Anyway, I guess they really won't be going down anytime soon if they're starting to sell it on PSN

Cam9774122d ago

I have this on disc so this doesn't appeal to me, anyway, Umbasa.

TheSaint4121d ago

This is the best of the two games.

Hey don't do that.

madjedi4121d ago

I'll pass on the digital version, but release dlc to the broken archstone and i'll snap it up immediately.

The best PS5 exclusives 2024

With so many PS5 exclusives to choose from, it can be a little overwhelming to pick which one to play. This is especially true for a new PlayStation gamer who has yet to experience the wonder of PlayStation-exclusive storytelling. So, here's KnowTechie's take on the best PS5 exclusives in 2024 and beyond

PlayStation is killing it with the exclusives this year. Exclusive wise, what has xbox released this year?

VersusDMC3d ago

They won't complain about Microsoft not releasing games here but put all their effort into saying that only first party counts. Games like Rebirth and Grandblue Relink don't count. Games published by Sony like Helldivers 2, Stellar Blade and Rise of the Ronin don't count because Sony don't own the studios.

It's some narrative building so for when Hellblade 2 come out they can say, seemingly without shame, that Microsoft is actually releasing first party games this year. And claim victory.🙃

Chevalier3d ago

Weird 1st party games didn't matter when Xbox had so little, but, now they're important again? Guess Ark 3, Stalker 2 don't count any more?

KyRo3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

ARK 3 doesn't exist and it's just a timed exclusive. It's also a game that a majority of the ARK player base doesn't want as it's a massive deviation from what people like about the original game

Abnor_Mal3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Honestly to me it doesn’t matter what they say, they are just finally getting a chance to say all the things PS fan(boy)s were saying to them for the past few years. Let them get that, they deserve a “win” for a change.

The new narrative is that suddenly first party games matter again when awhile ago they didn’t, but that was because they were struggling with the same three games with the occasional fourth or fifth. That games should be everywhere on all platforms since that’s whats happening to theirs. The consoles don’t matter just the ability to play anywhere. Whatever Xbox is doing Sony will soon follow.

They’re not moving the goalpost anymore, but rather just moving the whole damn stadium.

jwillj2k43d ago

Only a incel would care about who published what and who owns who.

If it’s not on the other consoles it’s an exclusive.

Killing what? Where are the 1st party games??
Stellar Blade and FF7 is what I’m seeing this year.. so shallow!!!!

andy853d ago

Doesn't really matter as long as they're great games. Baffles me why people put an emphasis on 1st party. They're still games you can't play anywhere else this year

Cacabunga3d ago

Andy

PS brand is my favorite because of their stellar first party software.. currently I see absolutely nothing to go crazy for..

CS73d ago

Nonsense.

PS1 and PS2 was built on great third party exclusives like FF, MGS, GTA & Tekken.

RonnySins3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Killing it my a$$! The 1st party is still MIA and no... Remakes and remasters don't count.

andy853d ago

I mean they literally do count. Imagine saying FF7 Rebirth doesn't count 😂

Tody_ZA3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

@Andy85 Don't forget the remakes for Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus, two of the best PlayStation games around!

And beyond PlayStation, what about Resident Evil 2 and 4? RonnySins wins the award for dumbest opinion!

raWfodog3d ago

Of course I love the games I’ve played from PS but I don’t believe we need to limit it to ‘exclusive’ to acknowledge that Xbox will be releasing some good games this year also. In that same vein, I believe that Xbox diehards shouldn’t limit their acknowledgment of good PS games to 1st party. There are plenty of good games to go around for everybody.

Tacoboto3d ago

This is a Playstation article about Playstation games and your comment is about Xbox. Can't you just celebrate what PS has without dragging this into console war BS?

ChasterMies3d ago

I don’t think Microsoft is releasing games exclusively on Xbox anymore. They have some timed exclusives that release on Xbox first.

Returnal, Astro Bot, and Ratchet made having it since day one worth it.

GT7 free updates and Spiderman 2 and others at 60fps have made this last year more than okay.

But yeah, it’s been dry lately. BG3 and third party have made great filler, but we ready for that SOCOM or Killzone announcement and some more 1st party goodness. Crossing fingers for Ghost of Tsushima 2 announcement this summer.

Didn’t know Helldivers was exclusive! Wtf is going on at Xbox that they can’t get these games, series s strikes again.

SonyStyled3d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Sony owns the Helldivers IP. The first was a PS3/Vita/PC game. It was never an Xbox game that they could ‘get’ a decade ago. I’m not sure what the upset is with Xbox here

CS73d ago

Lol, how do you ignore Rebirth one of the best games ever made?

anast3d ago

Looks like they are on par with the previous gens. Solid games all around. Interestingly enough, we can't say they released a bad game yet this gen. Unlike the Quiet Man dustup.

I actually do not mind if Marathon releases on multiple platforms . I just wish that Marathon has a dedicated single player campaign.

DaniMacYo3d ago

Helldivers 2 is exactly what gaming needed. I’m loving it.

The 7 Best Co-op Games on PS5

There's no better way to enjoy your PS5 than with friends, so here's our picks of the best co-op games on the console.

Cacabunga96d ago

For coop, get a used switch instead

jznrpg96d ago

I own a Switch and have never played co-op on it. I do play Elden Ring , Demons Souls and some other co/op games with my friends on PS5. Baldurs Gate 3 is the next game I’ll play co-op. Can’t do that on a Switch

Cacabunga96d ago

I was thinking for couch casual immediate fun.. not online coop games that require some adaptation.
