The first month of 2023 is in the rearview mirror. It’s time to reveal the first PlayStation Store downloads chart of the year for PS5, PS4, PSVR, and F2P. January saw the debut amongst others of sci-fi horror remake Dead Space, action RPG Forspoken and the PlayStation debut of Monster Hunter Rise. All three earned their places in the top ten for PS5.
PlayStation - The Concert is a magical musical experience for fans of the brand.
A huge SEGA / Atlus Nintendo Switch eShop sale with over 50 games on sale, including Persona 3 Portable, Persona 4 Golden, and more.
Two award-winning masterpieces, together in one incredible collection.
As expected. Unless it's going to Xbox or Switch 2, we can stop hearing about these older games now? We can move on to just news about new games?
Man, first year of PS6 is going to be 90% remasters. I'm going to hate it and likely hold off until new games actually get released that I can't play on my PS5.
...20 years later, "you haven't heard the last of us yet!" *releases The Last of Us Retro Collection*
@Christopher
Oof, yeah. I don't think I'm picking up the PS6 until "Pro" comes out 😂
I'm already dreading all the cross generation games and remasters we'll see with the next round of consoles.
lmao this is getting ridiculous but thing is if people keep buying them.. then why would they stop making them?
Peeps STOP BUYING this game.. that actually hurts me to say this as the last of us is high up on my greatest games of all times.. its one of the few games i played through start to finish 3/4 times back to back as i loved it so much. But sony need to stop, give us a Resistance 3 remaster, i would love and buy that.. such an underated series as was killzone.
Or give us infamous.. so many great series and titles i would gladly buy but they just want to keep giving us last of us.
I am done buying that game.. i would only buy part 2 remaster if they remade it and kept joel alive, or i am not interested. Hate last of us 2s story killing off joel.. the actual game is stunning and incredible, they improved so much in the gameplay department but i hate the story with a passion.
We can stop hearing about it when they stop re-releasing them I guess.
I reckon the ps6 version will be 8k 240 and I'll still not care.
I miss new games from nd
And HBO just announced season 3 even tho LoU2 couldn't possibly be so long that it wouldn't be able to fit in 1 season. They're just milking it at this point.
speaking of the HBO series... I felt they should have made part 1 across two seasons, then address part 2 in seasons 3 and 4. so now i have a feeling they rushed through part 1 in season 1 to make season 2 a cliff hanger with Joel's impending demise being the starting point to Season 3.
I love how they decided to rush, chop and change things for Season 1 to get through the game yet for TLOU Part II it’s like “we’re going to do multiple seasons and take our time”
Okay after seeing that there's only 7 episodes I take it back. Though I think it's incredibly stupid not to have just made the season longer. Another season just to finish what could've just been a 13 episode season seems counterintuitive but aiight. I put that on HBO tho.
This will be the 4th time Sony sells us The Last of Us Part 1.. And the 2nd time on the PS5.
At this point we are at Skyrim in terms of frequency. Skyrim was one per generation. If you exclude VR Skyrim we've now exceeded it
Tlou 1 PS3, 1 PS4 2 ps5
Skyrim 1 ps360 2 PS4/x1/vr 1 ps5/sx
Tlou 4
Skyrim 4
Not quite. Skyrim had:
PS3/360/PC
PS4/X1
VR
Switch
Skyrim Special Edition PC/PS4/X1
Skyrim Special Edition PS5/XSX
Also add skyrim bundles like the one below and all the humble bundles since that's what everyone is doing here

@Chris, LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base. At least Skyrim was able to sell to a wider audience via different platforms.
@darthv72: I don't know why you're telling me that. I only corrected on number of Skyrim re-releases/ports/etc. I didn't say anything else.
@christopher guess I forgot just how much was out I think the special editions are technically one release despite being cross platform though would the Alexa version count
@Profchaos: I guess, but I'd consider it a separate release since it rolled them into one at a later date but definitely there is a PS5/XSX version with PS5/XSX supported updates specific to them.
"LoU is getting just as bad by milking the same user base"
Weird. Like 35% of PS5 owners are NEW to Playstation. Plus this is really for new fans from the TV series for season 2 of TLOU.
I recall the same idiotic comments when the 1st one was remade just before TLOU TV Series came out and it went on the be one of the best selling games that year.
So maybe get your FACTS straight. Unlike Skyrim getting literally releases in 3 generations and 10 releases.
@FPS_D3TH
It blows my mind how people do some mental gymnastics to try to cope with a game they like doing the same thing (technically more) they’re complaining about for another game.
RE4 - PS2, GC
RE4 w Motion Controls - Wii
Literally RE4 HD Remaster - Xbox 360, PS3
I’m assuming a port of RE HD - PS4, Xbox One
RE4 Remake - PS5, Xsex
1 Remake and the bunch are Remasters… how, I mean how—Y’know what, it doesn’t matter anymore…
Store says I already own it. I guess it’s just a straight twin-pack. Looks like they added 4 maps to ‘No Return’.
You don't need to buy this to get the maps, marlene and bill. It all got patched in to the game on the 3rd.
Good to know. I’ve watched runs of ‘No Return’ but have yet to try it myself. Soon, soon 😉
TLOU Part I top ten on PS5 in both regions, and Part II on PS4 top ten in both regions. So what was that everyone was saying about how the remake was unnecessary because everyone who wanted to play TLOU had already done so?
Also remember that you if always say digital is what matters, I don't want to hear how this chart doesn't factor in physical sales.
Despite the review bombing people had their own brains and downloaded Forspoken, in both regions...go figure
