how is it after the patches? Aren't there also more to come?

Amplitude732d ago (Edited 732d ago )

Did people not like the Mafia 2 remake? I got so into it. Thought it was amazing. Never played the original.

Some of these are fitting but I can't help but feel like the author just has nostalgia for the original Mafia 2 here. Dmc Collection on PS4 is fiiiiine its just a collection of PS2 games and the PS3 performance was not amazing. The point is to just have the PS2 games for a new gen of people. Crysis Remastered is also totally fine and has been patched and updated to death since launch. The original version essentially ran on one CPU core and they couldn't fix it let alone get that running on console/switch so they had good reason to do what they did to boost interest in Crysis before the Crysis 4 announcement

Lots of way worse remasters out there lol GTA, THPS HD, that Mario 3D All Stars trash, etc

jeenyus732d ago

That's the issue, you haven't played the original.
The new one is slightly better looking but it's bugged af by comparison.

So in essence ... 2020 the year of bad remasters

Sounds like a case of quick cash grabs during the pandemic.

They put the money up a massive amount and we get this junk!
Sony are trying to pull that money back from what there management has balls up over the past 3 years with GAAS failure! There greed will be there failure.. we mess up it's on you to take the hit our loyal fans!

Hereandthere177d ago

Einhander1972177d ago

Rhythmattic13d ago

Hey Ronny, its not always perfect, but im loving F1 23

Crows90177d ago

Games with gold is junk yes...but this is about ps plus offerings which are decent this month.

Mafia 2 is a decent game and aliens fire team is a decent game. Not a junk month...you must have PTSD from gwg

blackblades177d ago

Whoever live off ps+ games got issues. Seriously who the hell pay this much attention to these games and call them junk because you don't have the interest to play them. Go out there and buy you a game to enjoy.

Abear21177d ago

Truth, but after raising prices I think some thought Sony would want to foster some good will. Arrogant Sony is officially back!

Crows90176d ago

Yes the games are average...just like Starfield. Lol

Not a great selection. They're okay I guess but I'm not interested

RpgSama177d ago

Not the best month and not the worst month, nothing that interest me though, hopefully the Plus Premium will be better, still need to get to Sea of Stars though.

monkey602177d ago

I've been too busy to catch up myself. Going to get through Spiderman 2 and then I want to play Disco Elysium

crazyCoconuts177d ago

I'm thinking it might be the worst month for PS since PS5 came out...
Still way better than any gold month has been of course.

S2Killinit176d ago (Edited 176d ago )

This from the article about the Sony Pictures Benefits for Plus members:

Starting on November 1 all PlayStation Plus members will receive a 15% discount on all content available for purchase and rental in Sony Pictures Core during the month of November.

Lastly, we hope you caught the premiere of the new mind-bending interactive streaming series Silent Hill: Ascension which made its debut yesterday. In addition to the interactive series, a weekly compilation of audience-influenced storylines will be packaged into TV episodes, and PlayStation Plus Premium/Deluxe members will have exclusive access to all weekly compilation episodes 24-hours before they debut on other platforms.

What is this all about?

Abnor_Mal177d ago

I heard Aliens Fire Team was good before, so I’ll give that a try. The rest I’m not interested in, but will still add to my library.

thesoftware730177d ago

Aliens is really fun, and even better with friends.

VersusDMC177d ago

Had fun playing Aliens single player. Will add to the library to replay at some point.

Becuzisaid177d ago

Was curious about Aliens, and I have the first and third Mafia games already, so this at least completes the trilogy for me.

I mostly disagree with Downpour's position. Yeah, the game is not amazing by any stretch of the imagination but is much better than the HD Collection and Homecoming. The main issue is the performance, but that was mitigated by the patches, especially on the PS3. Personally, I put it a little behind Origins and The Room.

Having Restless Dreams as a different entry from Silent Hill 2 is also a choice.

bfrye26184d ago

Normally, we would not consider it a different game (Restless Dreams), but since it had a very different critical reception and had new content, it was allowed. As for Downpour, I would agree, but since that one is subjective, we let him make his case for the placement.

gold_drake184d ago

silent hill 2 is definitely the best one out of those.

for me personally, the whole ritual/cult stuff was always so weird to me in all the other games.

CrimsonWing69183d ago

No disrespect but I put SH2 over 1. 1 is fantastic, but 2 took it all up a level.

bfrye26183d ago

We agree, that is why the writer put it in top place!

100% agree! SH2 is undoubtedly a stone cold classic.

gold_drake346d ago

i played a couple of months ago for the first time.

i agree that its a great survival game, but i think the minute u realise you can "kill" them, its takes alot of the initial fear out of it.
the same thing happened to me in Siren Blood Curse.

but its definitely one of the best games, when you start looking into the lore and the symbolism

1nsomniac346d ago

Never played it. I had moved on from PlayStation since then. So looking forward to the remake. Hope it’s not too cheesy tho.

P_Bomb346d ago

Pyramid Head or Red Pyramid. Which do you guys call him?

Pickledpepper346d ago

I've just brought the silent hill collection for the ps2 and absolutely loving it

Knushwood Butt346d ago

Nice.

I have the games, just no PS2.

Pickledpepper345d ago

I have a ps2 for sale and a n64 lol
