I gather, with GT7, Forza battling for sim supremacy, EA decided to go the arcade route. I mean NFS has always been more arcade-y. but the font looks like they are going kart mode. LOL!

Lightning77559d ago

I thought this site doesn't approve of rumors? They were quick to shut down the Sony leak and Horizon Zero Dawn remake/remaster rumor.

Odd.

cluclap559d ago

This isn't a leak, this is set in stone. Only the box art is leaked. The Horizon remaster was a legit leak of something we don't even know exists or not

Sgt_Slaughter558d ago

Rumors and leaks are not the same thing.

This is official art directly from EA themselves.

There's nothing odd about it.

Hmmm... Need for Speed: Unbound reminds me of Ridge Racer: Unbounded

LucasRuinedChildhood559d ago (Edited 559d ago )

Just judged on its own merits (a cross between Burnout and Split/Second with some good destruction and fun drifting), Unbounded is extremely underrated.

If it was just called "Unbounded", I think people would look back on it much more fondly but it annoyed Ridge Racer fans (which I understand) so they trashed it, and it's a mostly forgotten game now. It's a shame - the game deserves more fans.

just need high stakes with today graphics please !

Vengeance1138559d ago (Edited 559d ago )

I heard it's supposed to combine "near photo realism" with anime style VFX. Which we seem to be seeing in the art here with the realistic car contrasted with a more drawn looking smoke cloud.

Finally, Resistance: Retribution 🔥

It's an alright month overall. I think Sony should try to more consistently get some high quality indies Day 1 in the service, e.g. Ultros would have been good. Those have usually been some of the better months, e.g. Stray, Sea Of Stars, Tchia.

Shame that for this version of Outer Worlds, you can't import your save. 😔 Truly Spacer's Choice

darthv7261d ago

retribution was a cool game. It's the only one that allowed you to link a DS3 controller using Resistance 2 to play it (as far as i know). It was an interesting experiment that didnt offer 2nd analog support though but Im betting this version does.

Eonjay61d ago

Good point. One assumes that is the reason for the delay on releasing it.

ChasterMies61d ago

Joke’s on Outer Worlds Spacers Choice. I quit after the first planet in Outer Worlds.

MaximusPrime_61d ago

Glad I didn't buy NFS rebound. I expected this to be on PS Plus.

Unbound lol. N I got it for 15 physical, 🤷🏽. I'll take it. Jus got extra this year for $80, which is a great deal. If I can pay $80 on sale every year I'd stick with Extra. I don't mind buying a game but then it shows up here cause then I can download it to have it digitally but still have MY copy. Once they take it off I can still play it.

Eonjay61d ago (Edited 61d ago )

You can say what you want about day one purchases but besides that Plus really blows GamePass out of the water.

NFS, Outer Worlds and 4 different Tales of Games... and Retribution. And you throw the monthly games on top of that... its no competition.

BTW... how is it that no one realized that Microsoft could just put its games on Plus. No one seems to realize that Microsoft and Sony are now working to enrich each other. (Console ware is over)

darthv7261d ago

Sadly, Retribution is only for premium users... not us extra folk. I do have the original UMD, but it would be nice to get it digitally like i did with killzone liberation and stardust. Both of which i already owned digitally on my Go/Vita and it was cool when those were made available for the PS5 as then i could dl them.

Eonjay61d ago

This is one UMD I never had but thats really awesome you still have an original.

ChasterMies61d ago

How can Game Pass be the best deal on gaming when it is more expensive than PS+?

badboyz0961d ago

Plus you need a platform to.

Petebloodyonion61d ago

Gamepass PC is way cheaper to PS+ and even way cheaper if you use MS rewards points

Redgrave61d ago

Is that Jet Moto 2, under Resistance? As of writing, it's just an image and no text.

Redgrave61d ago

It's been fixed, and yes it is

Toecutter0061d ago (Edited 61d ago )

Why is the Killzone series still M.I.A? I still love playing splitscreen co-op of KZ3.

MrBaskerville60d ago

They did release the psp top down shooter a while back. So it's not completely forgotten.
