OPM: Why does Nathan Drake treat killing thousands of men so jovially? Why isn’t he in prison for mass murder? It’s a clichéd question in gaming circles – like asking why the Bond villain doesn’t just shoot him – but it’s being asked more frequently, and about a wider range of games.
Golf With Your Friends gets better again, with the introduction of a Critical Hit DLC pack and the launch of Speed Golf.
A remake of MediEvil 2 may be getting shadow dropped at the rumored PlayStation Showcase or State of Play presentation in May, 2024.
What, I thought this was dead after Shawn Layden left Sony. I would definitely pick this up if it's true. I have such great memories of playing the MediEvil games on PS1 and I played the PS4 remake. Such a great and underrated series.
Such a good series I also wish Sony would dust off Wild Arms and Legend of Dargoon even the Legend series needs to see the light again.
My bets on new Socom and/or Wolverine (since Deadpool 3 is dropping in the summer).
I think one after this state of play will be PS5 pro preorder
"The Vancouver-based (Canada) indie games developer Red Hook Studios are today very happy and excited to announce that their roguelike /strategy/RPG “Darkest Dungeon II”, is coming to Playstation consoles (PS5 and PS4) via PSN on July 15th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Non gaming features are more likely to have a greater impact on the overall user experience. The infamous share button comes to mind.
Ideally hardware prowess should influence creativity but it rarely does. Just bigger games, better graphics.
PS4 is about to BLOW our minds, get ready!
ok this was a nice read... hope it reaches the top .
Early days, the manufacturers need to push the hardware to generate and justify interest from those who are still 'happy' with current gen offerings. So it's no surprise to see them pushing graphically intense games that stick to a tried and tested formula.
Hopefully we'll see more 'creative' use of the hardware as we move further into their life cycles. I'm looking at indie devs here, with lower budgets and less risk.
But let's be honest, people seemed more concerned with who has the better RAM than original experiences.
Looking at the games that Ubisoft announced with huge open worlds, the connectivity, and the types of games the consoles are getting I would say that they are already changing the types of games we are getting. And that is just one company and their first games on the new systems. Still plenty of room to evolve and change.
