XBA Says: Those looking for a totally wireless headset experience should check out Razer's latest product
State of Play is back tomorrow, September 24! Tune in live for news and updates on more than 20 upcoming PS5 and PS VR2 games from studios around the world.
Agreed, but if I could pick one game to remaster first it would be Killzone 2. If you had to pick one which would it be?
If they announce Kill Zone 2 remake or resistance 2 that multiplayer would be crazy. But Warhawk I would cry like a 2 year old 😂😂😂 give me bloody roar
I love Killzone, but I would prefer a complete reboot of the franchise, using the newest version of the Decima engine, rather than simply a remaster of part 2.
Sony will not do Killzone 2 or any Killzone because they don't have plans for it in the future... No TV shows, no sequel, no Lego game, no multiplayer...
This is dead for Herman... Only Aloy.
And that's sad.
Zero hype for tomorrow.
legacy of kane, resistance, or just something totally new that hasnt been already done
Hopefully zero gaas, will show that they’re starting to reason!!!
And yeah the remaster trend must also stop.
PS5 exclusives or nothing go home
A new Killzone, Uncharted, Tsushima, inFamous, Resistance, Wolverine or something original single player.
I either want something from the infamous franchise or the cheeky answer is being lemmings back as that's now Sony
Killzone 2 I think falls into remake territory.
I'll take a Warhawk remake or even a remaster but that's it, really.
Any remasters for a last generation game on a backwards compatible console is just insulting.
If they do any online only live service stuff, give us MAG or Warhawk, games that actually perfected that formula.
@Kingrizzy90
Wow. And it looks like you are the winner. Completely was not expecting that.
If they don't show something from a couple of their big studios after the absolute disaster they've had with Concord then I'll lose all hope. This generation has been a complete letdown so far and there's very little to look forward to at the moment.
Pretty sure : RE9, Days Gone Remaster, HZD Remaster, 1 last SH2 trailer, Wolverine trailer, Until Dawn trailer
Maybe(s) : GoT 2 announcement, DS2 (but already happening@ TGS), Pragmata, TLOU2 or SpiderMan 2 PC announcement,
Wishlist : Santa Monica & Naughty Dog's new project tease, Marathon gameplay trailer
Don't Want : Any AC Shadows trailer, Any more remasters other than the ones leaked
You really think that other remaster is Days Gone? And my God what happened to Pragmata?!?
It’s 30 minutes, I think you’re being optimistic there, don’t have high expectations, I know mine are the lowest they have ever been since what i have witnessed these past 4 years!
Only 5 remasters. They had to cut back to squeeze in 1 new announcement. They will have another SoP next month to cover the other 12 remasters.
*monkey paw curls*
Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered
Gravity Rush 1 & 2 Remastered
Until Dawn Remastered
In the case of Gravity Rush, a remaster of a remaster that plays on PS5 now would be bizarre. Then again, so does Horizon.
This only makes sense if it means a PC release, but they still closed the studio and releasing this would be very poor taste.
I'm presonally looking forward to a Days Gone one. Would love any excuse to play that game again. I loved it
They could do a lot right by simply announcing a blood-borne remastered so many people have been waiting for it and they should not only bring it to PlayStation 5 but also PC
If they are all intent on doing a lot of remasters, how about doing some of the remasters from the games during the PlayStation 2 and three generation instead of PlayStation 4 games?
Can we get infamous collection? Can we please get Socom from the PlayStation 2 generation? Uncharted trilogy God of war trilogy twisted metal collection, kill zone trilogy, resistance trilogy some of these games they can simply just unlock online multiplayer. They’re only one need to do a lot of work and people would enjoy them
But instead, let’s just remastered the last of us horizon zero down the God of war 2018 this PlayStation Sony executive bosses are some of the most idiotic in the past 10 years
PlayStation has such a long history. They can simply do a lot of fun service and get so much positive PR but they keep making the same mistake again and again and again.
I would honestly prefer remasters/remakes/reboots of games than GaaS they have tried to push.
Lol, but like most I was expecting a 'Playstation showcase' but looking at how brief the Pro reveal was ... I am guessing these short State of Plays á la N.Direct style is how Sony is going to continue.
The next big PS showcase is gonna be the PS6 event. Till then all will be SoPs.
Hopefully there's good games, but we'll see. Going in with low hype, and I hope to be pleasantly surprised.
I've yet (still) to jump into this gen of consoles. Still rocking the last gen ps4 and xbox one x. Let's see if Sony can justify that $780 price tag (no way I'd go without a disc drive).
How much longer do you think you could/would hold out on upgrading? A lot of people still haven't upgraded, which I get.
If I'm not convinced by Christmas this year, I'll probably end up skipping this gen.
@FinalFantasyFanatic
As the true Final Fantasy fan I am, I could never skip the place to play the games at release.
It won't happen, but give me a new Killzone. I'm tired of all the same fucking shit lately.
30th anniversary prices will be as follows: $499.99 Slim, $999.99 Pro, $199.99 Portal, $199.99 Edge, $79.99 DS
Its a logical guess. I figure the controllers will be their regular prices, maybe $5 more due to recent news about them raising those and the Portal will be about the same. Both of which will be more available than the actual systems themselves.
Okay got you. If the Portal is not supply limited then okay. But I would expect at least a $100 premium on the limited supply consoles. $999 for the pro bundle seems like it in the ballpark though.
If you're paying those prices because they're calling it a special edition then you're the exact people they were hoping were out there....mugs!
On the second hand market... no doubt. Sony has not doubled the price of a special edition system. they didnt with the 20th anniversary or the 500 million editions. They were marginally more than the respective standard units at the time.
Gonna have to bring more than Remasters this time though, people are wondering what their bigger developers are doing for almost half a gen yet still nothing new got announced yet.
I'll be watching cautiously.
Games take awhile to make. Minimum 4. 5 years to 6 years+. Not saying Ghost 2 will take 8 years to make but Ghost did take 6 years to make which is fast specifically for a new IP. Ghost 2 could be a 2026 title spring that year or, at the very earliest spring of next year. Which would be 5 years even come next year.
ND New IP could be a 2027-2026 the earliest. Again that's not quite bad specifically for a new IP.
Santa Monica New IP could release and announced sooner than the others. Corey has been working on the new IP since 2018 GoW. Remember Corey's main team didn't make the GoW 2022. Their game could release next year. 2018 to 2025 is 7 years the time has to be near. I don't think it'll show up tomorrow but Vga's is the last stop for SSM New IP and Ghost 2. Considering those are their only 2 games that are I guess "closer" to release.
I'm just talking about the new big IP. Of course Venom could release next year. Venom could very well be that one more thing tomorrow. If not then the Vga's. Have a feeling that games close. Wolverine in 2026 and Sm3 in 27.
Stop defending Sony slacking on the games front. 21 studios and not a game to show apart from 15 hours Astrobot. When you play for like 10 hours each day like I do, that 15 hour game is soon forgotten, how great it is, doesn't really matter in the end of the year. They need to release 2-3 heavy hitters a year, Sony is the platformholder after all!!
@CS7 What should I do, enjoying my backpain staring out the window. Nah, I rather game. And it might take a loong time to enter my simrig, but well inside I rather race for a few hours and my backpain eases up a little.
Edit: My PS Portal is great for some laying on couch-gaming thou ;)
I feel like they have to reveal something big, even if it's just a Logo. Coming off the back of some disappointing announcements of late.
Won't be anything we hope for maybe just one thing, come on sony surprise us like those 2009 ps3 days lol I remember they were heavy delivering gems
No. Always keep your expectations in check so then you actually have the chance to be surprised but if its lack luster you don't walk away too disappointed.
This sucks. I remember 2015 & 2016 when expectations were sky high and Sony still managed to literally blow you away, with FF7 Remake, GOW, Spiderman, Horizon gameplay, Tsushima, DS etc.
This is gaming man, it's supposed to be fun. Now the message is don't get excited and people are upvoting that.
This is the worst gen.
I'm going in expecting bangers, their devs had enough time for something to be shown already, especially Wolverine. The 30 min might seem low, but Nintendo has managed to have some great showings with similar show lengths, all they have to do is show the games, and not do a bunch of talking or extended looks.
Finally, all 1st party games they show have to be PS5 Pro enhanced, and I want to see FF7: Rebirth(PRO) type of jumps or better.
I doubt each Pro game will have FF7 levels of improvement because, especially with Sony 1st party, their games tend to have really good levels of IQ as a base. Still there Quality 30 fps modes still have improvement over performance modes so you would expect their pro performance modes to be excellent. FF7s performance was just so poor on OG PS5 that the Pro version looks like a revelation when they could have put more effort into the OG version.
I have no clue what will come of this. I just pray that in 30 minutes, the remaster trailers are 2 minutes total.
To get 20 games into 30 minutes... a lot of trailers will have to be shorter than that
yes valid but if there are multiple remasters it still cannot total more than 2 minutes lol
give me Killzone. imagine it now - most people have fast wifi - no lag, It would be glorious.
Sony Inzone New Monitors: Tuesday: https://youtube.com/watch?v...
• State Of Play: Tuesday: https://youtube.com/live/fV...
• Tokyo Game Show: Thursday
• Death Stranding 2 On The Beach: Thursday
• PlayStation 5 Pro Pre Orders Go Live: Thursday
It's a state of play and not a showcase, so it's already off to a dull start. top that with the fact that they specifically use the word updates and not announcements and im not expecting much out of this.
Very good observation on their choice of words. The words update doesn't give much to hope for.
Sony have stopped trying, they have no competition so why bother? The highlight will be a crappy hzd remaster that no one wants.
If they focus on remasters then they are really don't know what we want, they need at least a couple reveals and one crazy announcement...
didnt they leak the info that its horizon zero dawn remasterd and days gone remastered
PlayStation better deliver..........after all of the overwhelming negativity they've had these last 2 weeks. They will need AAA bangers. NOT remasters.
Sony dont GAF about us on these comment sections, we are a tiny proportion of their audience and impossable to please anyway, why should they care?
TLOU remaster was heavilly criticised and pilloried by many of us, but sold 18 million units. We will be ignored, and quite frankly, we deserve no better.
"State of remasters" lol.
For real, never have I watched an exciting State of Play ever. All of them were either boring or dissappointing. Sony still plays catch up with Nintendo in regards to gaming showcases.
Looking forward to the show but when it comes to remasters the only remasters I want to see is Bloodborne or something from the PS3 era. I don't care about a HZD, Until Dawn or a Days Gone remaster.
I buy 3-4 games a week. Some retro some new. This show is probably going to piss my wife off lol.
Can we get a legit Twisted Metal Reboot? I would get on Day 1. Bring it back along with Killzone.
What need to be said or shown to get you guys hyped for PS5 pro aka PS5 I'm Po edition
won't be surprised if it's a dud..sony's glory days are well behind with mr. hulst in charge
Give the man atleast a year in office before sharpening the pitchforks damn! He's the same person who brought us killzone and horizon. Where was the uproar then?
For a PS5 owner; this generation has basically been about Sony putting their games on PC and calling them remasters at the same time telling console owners they are number 1 whilst charging them more. When more people wake up and realise they have essentially just copied Microsofts strategy in slow motion they'll finally realise they were shafted this generation. Copying Microsoft will just give you the same results and the corporation will come to the same illogical conclusions that the console market is shrinking when it is in fact themselves that are shrinking it deliberately with bad decisions.
"God of War had a all time peak of 73,529 on Steam, GOW Ragnarok's peak is 25,796" I hope it was worth it Sony, These games were downloaded in their millions on pirate flag waving sites.
Been saying this for years, but downvoted to hell. Sony copying MS, and MS copying Sony.
Now MS is releasing Hallo anniversary console... like 30th Sony console. Releasing everything on PC... good luck.
Where does the time go?
Nintendo and Pokemon Company have filed a lawsuit against Pocketpair Inc., the creators of Palworld, in Tokyo, Japan.
Ye, Custom Robo Arena was a lot better than Pokemon anyways, now that's a game.
Interestingly this comes like a day after they announced they would be at the Tokyo Games Show.
We should all really hope so. Otherwise, this could lead to many issues, as they hold patents on numerous game mechanics. And when I say numerous, I truly mean it. Take this one, for example:
"Abstract: In an example of a game program, a ground boarding target object or an air boarding target object is selected by a selection operation, and a player character is caused to board the selected boarding target object. If the player character aboard the air boarding target object moves toward the ground, the player character is automatically changed to the state where the player character is aboard the ground boarding target object, and brought into the state where the player character can move on the ground."
In plain English, do you guys remember that super amazing mechanic where you surf on the water with a Pokémon, and then when you hit land, it changes to you walking? Yeah, they patented that.
A patent lawsuit? What Pokémon-related patent could Palworld even be infringing that other similar games haven't? This makes no sense. Feels like Nintendo just trying to throw its weight around to bully competitors, just like they do with emulators even though they're legal.
They can't Innovate their own IP, but when others are breaking the ceiling, they run to the courts, gtfo Nintendo/Gamefreak.
Companies' gatekeeping mechanics behind the patent system to stifle innovation, consumers will always pick the better product, it's not the consumer's fault that Gamefreak has sat on their lazy assess for years.
You can't argue with _subjective_ taste. Some people are going to like games you find crappy. I'm happy not everyone has the same taste.
@swedishMeatwad
PS5 Pro is obviously objectively the better product when compared to the base PS5, but the majority of consumers interested in a PS5 will not be picking Pro over base PS5.
There are countless examples like this out there.
Rather you like it or not COD has many accessible options and customization that allows for better experience than most other FPS.
The Palworld has been out since January of 2024 and now Nintendo finally decides to do something. I fail to see how Palworld is like Pokemon besides evolving monsters. There are other games out there as well where you can capture and level up monsters. Tales of Symphonia 2 does that capture monsters and have them fight with you and they evolve when levelling up. The two games might share some similarities but what game doesn't borrow from another game. I could understand if Palworld was just a straight on copy clone of Pokemon but it's not. Nintendo is starting to become a pain in the ass. Going full gung ho with rom sites that I can see, purposely taking down pictures from a strategy guide for Mario 64 the strategy guide never came to North America and Nintendo had the pictures taken down. Where does it every stop with Nintendo?
It's because Palworld became a worldwide viral success. Nintendo can't fathom someone else being that popular when it comes to a small monster catching game.
Nintendo is only acting now because they just finished a lawsuit which they won.
https://www.nintendolife.co...
Atlus should get on this and sue Nintendo as SMT came out before Pokemon. If Nintendo is going to play this game.
This feels like a scare tactic more than anything else. There's nothing here dozens of other games haven't already done, they're just mad this game showed people how much the pokemon series has been slackin and are desperately trying to make an example out of them.
How's about instead of spending all that money on court fees and lawyers you invest it into making pokémon better?
I think if it was a scare tactic it would have happened when the game came out I have a feeling they've been building a case for a while
It did happen even before the game came out, they tried several tomes before and nothing came of it
When did Sony back then were they not trying to get in with Microsoft I'm fairly sure they are independent
nintendo needs to chill a little.
i get that why they did it but still. its not on palworld if nintendo cant get it together
The patenting of game mechanics does nothing but stifle creativity. These parents should not be able to hold up in a court of law.
Nintendo patenting throwing an object to capture a creature is just disgusting and ensures they have no competition in the creature capture genre.
The World is siding with Pocketpair. I'm donating all my savings for their legal battle ahead.
I just want to see them lose badly this time, they deserve it. They are not so big and bad when it comes to torrent's of their games up there for years including Switch, feels good they can't do shit about that LOL.
Go get them Nintendo. They so good at lawsuits, pocket pair gonna need a miracle to get through this.
